The Cheese nkera

The cheese makers of the whole Union
are likely to be represented more OF less
fully in the meeting of the Cheese Manu-
~facturer's- Association, at Columbus, on
January oath and 25th. Reports will be
presented from over thirty cheese facto-
ries, and the topics to be discussed are as
follows:
~. Improved method of cheese manu-
faeture. 2. Best manner of marketing
cheese; whether direct or through mid
dlemen. 3. An uniform rate Of cheese
manufacture for 1869. 4. The best man
ner of organizing factories; whether by
private enterprise, by corporations, or
otherwise. 8. Best breed of COWS for the
dairy. 6. Summer and winter manage
ment OF mich cows, &c"
The address on the occasion is Is be de-
by Y. A, Willard, of Utica, a
veteran cheese authority. Apropos to this
reference is the announcement of Mr..
Willard, in a recent issue of the Country
Gentleman, Of a business mistake under
which all our cheese makers, both factory
and domestic, labor. He declares they
make their cheeses too large. The mar
kets sustain Mr.. Willard, and the old
hoops must be given up. The dealers and
consumers find small cheeses more easily
handled, less wasteful in using, and,
where quality is the same, the small
chooses are always preferred. Some of
the factories, taking the hint the present
season, have been making seven pound
chooses. The cheese manufacture of the
country is SO considerable an item in the
census returns as to give value to the wide
of any fact of common inter-
est to all. a4I

A Black Code AnnuIIed.

We are glad to learn ria Memphis that
by orders from Washington to General
Thomas, commanding the department
which includes the State of Mississippi,
the latter officer is instructed to disregard
the " Black Code p" of Mississippi, as passed
by the late Legislature, under the title of
"An act to confer civil rights upon freed
men," 1t would be a better mode of max
ing public this fact and of preventing the
wrongs contemplated by the act, ifGeneral
Thomas would issue a proclamation de-
claring it void, and explaining the reason
why it is so treated. We recently set
forth its atrocious provisions in full. They
prohibit a negro from owning or hiring
lands, houses or tenements anywhere in
the State, prevent negroes from testifying
in cases where negroes are charged with
offences against white men, oblige every
negro to have a lawful home,Pf I. e., a
master on the second Monday Of January,
or they will bind him out, gives the master
the right to recover q negro employed by
himself If he runs away and makes the
cost of recovery payable put of the ne
gro's wages, makes cohabitation between
blacks equivalent to marriage, but pun
ishes q white man, not for cohabitation
with, but for marrying a black woman,
and punishesany white man for hiring or
~harboring a negro already hired by any
other white man.. The sole object of the
code Is 20 snsleve the negro, and if per-
mitted to go into effect It wouIa 40 so
most efectually. Away with such barba-
rism. BY the time we have set aside the
bungling legislation of the Southern
whites for a year or two, we shall be ready
to let the negroes try their hand. They
certainly cannot do worse, and may,do
better.-Cdieggo Tribune.

Gen. Howard,s Report.

We have a private letter by yesterdays
mails, confirming the dispatch in our tel
Iegraphic columns this morning, that Gen.
Towards Eeportaof matters in the South,
as carefully observed and written down
during his recent extensive tour, will show
"a very unsatisfactory and untrustworthy
condition of puOlic feeling in that unfor-
tunste section. All persons who know
Gen HowardTY viii attach great weight to
whatever he says. His character as a
Christian soldier and as an officer of the
highest intelligence, is enviable, indeed.
In these respects he has an established
reputation beyond any general officer
known to the people. Therefore, moro
than to all that has been written or said
by other touri IS who either officially or
unofieiaIly have visited the South since
the close of the war, credence will be given
tothe words of General Howard. Already,
in advance of publication, and from its as
certained character alone, his report is
having afvisible effect upon Congress. The
precautionary feeling against admitting
members from the South has increased.
Should the report when published bear
out the present understanding Of its con-
tents, it is hardly likely that any members
from the lately rebellious States will be
admitted this session, unless an exception,
perhaps, is made in the case of Tennessee.

The great works. done. The key stone
has been placed in the arch of freedom.
nation, The amendment to the Constitu-
ton of the United States abolishing sla-
very has received the necessary ratification
from the Legislatures of three7fourths of
the States, and has been nfiniallV pro-
claimed a part of the Constitution by the
Secretary of State of the United States.
We publish the proclamation referred
tosin another column. It will be seen
that the Secretary estimates the total num-
Der of States in the Union at t~hirty-six,
including all the so-cal1ed Confederate
,StsteR ahd szetading Colorado The
number of States enumerated as having
ratified the amendment is twenty-seven,
Just the necessary th~ree-fourths, including
Virginia, Louisiana, Tennessee, Arkansas,
South Carolina, Alabama, North Carolina
and Georgia. While we believe that
the amendment has been legally
ratified, and rejoice that it has been
proclaimed a part Of the Constitution, we
must dissent IN tote from this reasoning of
Mr.. Seward. The States above named are
not in their proper relation to the Union
and their ratification ought not to be ad-
nitted as legal and binding. The amend
ment is adopted, but without their aid.
However, agreeing as we do with the Sec
rotary in his conclusions, we shall not now
quarrel with his logic. .TH

Relic Of Old Days.

At the recent grand meeting of the
American Freedmen's Aid Commission,
held in the hall of the House of Represen-
tatives, the opening prayer was made by
learned colored man. The complexion of
the distinguished divine shocked the re-
fined sensibilities of a female representa-
tive of the ~Schivalry,n who, for a wonder,
happened to be present, whose modest and
lady-like way of expressing her feelings
is thus described by the Washington cor
respondent of the Detroit Tribune:
Near where 1 was sitting, in one of the
aisles, stood a person clothed as a woman.
Doubtless she belonged to the a~ristoRracy
that have been, save here and Re a
specimen, buried by the plowshare OF war.
As Mr.. Garnet rose she began to get
wrathful. All the milk of human kind
ness in her nature seemed to be suddenly
turned to NORWOOD and gall. She turn
edber backyto the platform, and as she
stood facing me, there was an expression
of ineffable disgust upon her c~ountenance.
She could stand it but little longer.
Two or three sentences of the prayer had
been uttered, each one adding to her dis
gust. Finally she uneorked. Turning
her head half way around, in a sharp, vix-
enish voice, that could be heard on the
platform, she snapped out with hateful
spite the words-"Shut up your mouth 4"
A half minute more elapsed, and, turn
ing around so as to face the platform, in a
more spiteful tone than before, she blurted
out again: 80, yow better shut up your
T1ln1fTh = ~." |". .|.
One or two persons near by requested
her to keep quiet, but when did pure Gus
sedness ever keep still, and this time she
made a short speech, her eyes looking dag
gers, swapping it out in these words (:
z Can it be tolerated in this city, that that
r1Gn shall preach to a white audience; he
dGn't preach to me !" and up the aisle
she went, with indignant jerks, and the
doorway being crowded, was helped out
of a window, on her way homeward. I
took down her words at the time, and
know they are correct.

The Ste. mbOat Crash at ST. Louis.

The Ste. mbOat Crash at st. Louis.
A correspondent of the Cincinnati
Commercial writes as follows in regard to
the destruction of steamboats, by the ice
at st. Louis on Saturday last;
1t is many years since the winter has
produced such a scene as was witnessed
this afternoon, on the river in front of the
city. The people at the wharves soon
learned the danger to the boats, but it was
not until the fire bells summoned the
steam engines TO the spot that the real
fact was appreciated through the business
part of the city. Then there was a rush
from all quarters, and in ten minutes ten
thousand people were congregated on the
land. The interest was concentrated
chiefly around two blocks where the
Missouri River packets usually land.
Here the ice made a desperate lunge
into several boats and damned them to-
gether into a heap. Three certainly land
at the hour of writing, it is reported four)
were sunk; and four or five badly damaged
The Amanda and Captain Perkins new
boat we're forced out into tho river and
fioated dOwnth river with the ice. They
were cut loose to save them. The Amanda
was drawn in towards the shore opposite
the lower portion of the city, but the new
boat was still adrift when last SEEN. One
of the most suggestive sights was a huge
government barge, a strongly built craft,
with decks fore and aft far above the
average in size and strength, crushed as
easily as if made of paper. Her sides
closed together as perfectly as if done by
hydraulic power. The most painful part
of the ice moving scene is, that a specta-
tor lost his life by an iron ring forced
from its socket by the strain on a hawser.

ton was attended with more than the
usual Observation-Disclosures such occasions
andinrsome localities it ran SO high as to
eliminate in breaches Of the public peace.
AT Lake City, particularly, the contest be-
came so heated that the friends of some of
the contestants for office were on the eve
of a desperate collision, when, with a view
to its suppression, the United States officer
of the post ordered out the colored troops

and marched them to the ballot box, with
loaded muskets and fixed ~bayonets, which
so much incensed the citizens that nothing
but the speedy withdrawal of the negroes
prevented a bloody conflict. The day af-
ter the election three white men attempted
to arrest q -colored man who had commit
ted an offence against the law, when the
latter made such stout. resistance that he
