DR.. GwYN.-It was reported not
long since that this gentleman had
been arrested at New Orleans by the
Federal authorizes and confined in
Fort jackson as a prisoner of State,
and that he had been subsequently,
released and had gone to Washington.
The Louisville Journal asserts thai
the story of bis discharge from close
confuem- mt was a fabrication, and
that At last accounts he was still in
Fort Jack on and Ignorant of what
the design Of the Government tow
ard him might be.
The Journal is at a loss to discover
wherein the inirm and broken old
man has sibned, either in civil or
military capacity, to which the Eel
era Government could make Just or
even plausible objection; and con-
siders its treatment Of him cruel and
unreasonable, however pure the in
tentions of the Administration may
be in respect to his care.
We do not believe remarks the
Journal, that the functionaries at
Washington understand bis case.
Probably, under the pressure Of i'm
portant business, they have not found
time to examine it, and so have
thought fit to act upon general i'm
pressions. We have had the means
of knowing the fact as TO DR. G. Q
course, and have already spoken 0
them. 1t is true that he crossed the
Federal lines into the Confederaay a.
ter the day designated in the Presi-
dents amnesty proclamation, but he
has passed his threescore and ten.
he went to the South because it is thei
section in which most of his life has
been passed, and because his property
and his personal friends and no doubt
bis sympathIes were there. But not
for a day did be hold any Office, civil
or military, in the Confederaey. In
the strctest sense, and IN every sense
Of the term, he was non-combatan,.

WHAT TO Do WITH THE FREED
mEN.-The Richmond Sentinel says
that "the distribution Of our colored
population throughout the United
States, SO that each State would have
something like an equal proportion,
would be exceedingly happy in its
political consequences. 1t would at
once remove the negro out of our
councils as soures of controversy
and irritation"
On every ground then, whether of
craftsmanship. humanity or expert
ments in negro development. we
should all, both North and South,
unite in desiring The diffusion Of the
negro popu1ation. We trust the
Frrednen's Bureau will pursue and
greatly enlarge its enterprise In that
direction. Send the negroes North
by thousands every day. Let South
ern citizens systematically encourage
the Nortbward tide, by employing
white labor preferably to black, and
by seeking black labor, when they
do seek it, south Of them and not
north of them. The colored man
should be encouraged to tread no
step backward; but let every step
he takes north be step gained. The
Potomac should be his Rubicon, and
like Caesar, should cross it.
