The New York Herald publishes . de.

Work was commenced on the canal in
August last, aud up to the let inst, when
the bulk head was blown out, three regi.
ments Of white and colored troops" aver.
aging from l2O to 14o men, were daily
engaged upon the work. The canal Is
522 feet long, and the greatest width Of
excavation is 1872 feet, and the depth As
feet. The width of the canal proper is 66
feet at the top, and As feet at the bottom.
At high water there will be Is feet Of
water in the channel. The article ack.

conclusion that the canal, when completed

was confusion produced by want Of rules,

about Mr.. Psyne's resolutions, and are 8
little surprised that our venerable cotem-

have voted against them hsd it been in

Oppression Of Negroes in NORTH Caro-.

Oppression Of Negroes in North Care.
ItDa-
We publish elsewhere a statennant from
the Wilmington IN. O. Herald, of the
oppression prscticed upon Negroes in the
vicinity of Fayetteville, q place not here
tofore gsrrisoned by Federal troops.
Fiendish as these atrocities are, they are no
worse than have been il Aicted upon de-
fenceless freedmen in different portions of
North Carolina since the termination Of
the war. Such conduct in South Carolina
or Mississippi would astonish no one at the
North, for nothing better could reasonably
be expected from the mother of those twin
political denominations secession and g D
distion; but our people have So long been
accustomed to hear North Carolina named
as the great conservative State Of the Con
federscy-the cradle and abiding place of
loyalty in the Sonth-the favored spot
where the experiment of reconstruction
was to be tried under the most favorable
suspices-thst they will receive with sur.
prise the information that sll the horrors
of the slave system in the days of its
domination are there perpetrsted. We do
not share this sstonlshment. The spirit of
slavery is to-day as arrogant and as brutal
as ever; its deyotees hate the black man
free with 3 more intense bitterness than
they felt when he was 8 slave. They will
tJrsnizs over the Negro so long as they
have the power to do SO. Nor DO they de-
ny this. The clash of arms had scarcely
ceased to echo in the land, when they be
gan to plot the practical re. enslaVement OF
those made iree by tha fortunes of war.
They make DO secret of their
Intention 70 so frame their State
legislation as 10 control the
labor and the destiny of the colored race.
This spirit has not only been evinced in
their private acts, but has been avowed in
their public meetings. Their farmers have
acted upon it BY forming leagues for the
purpose Of forcing the black men to the
performance of unpaid labor, and their
politicians have proclaimed it from the
rostrum. That such is the policy to be
pursned-sye, being Pursued-is known to
