The Freedmen.

Gen Sherman has issued special order set
ting apart 1.-THE islands from Charleston south
the abandoned rice fields along the river, fol
thirty miles back from the sea, and the coun
try bordering the st. John river, Florida, fol
the settlement of the enfranchised negroes
BY the terms of the order the blacks at Beau
fort, Hilton Head, Savannah, Fernandina, st
Augustine and Jacksonville, are permitted Il
remain in their chosen or accustomed voca
lions" but on the islands and in the proposed
settlements they are to have the sole and ex
elusive management Of affairs, no white person
being permitted to reside among them, except
military officers and soldiers detailed for duty
The young and able.bodie among them arc
to be encouraged to enlist in the military ser
vice of the United States. r.
1t is fitting that the very land where the re-
bellion was fomented for the purpose of per
pctuating slavery should be set apart for thu
sole possession of the freedmen. 1t is design
ed to establish a negro agricultural settlement
in the section of country named, and to leave
the enfranchiscd people free to work out thei
own destiny in their own way. The best pos
sible choice of inspector of these settlements
and plantations is made in Gen. Saxton.

Some years ago there was bill introduced
in the Georgia Legislature to lay tax of ten
dollars year on all jacks. Some appreciative
member proposed to amend it SO as to include
lawyers. The amen dment was accepted, and
the bill passed. Several efforts have since
been made to repeal it, bit in vain, and to
this day all jacks and lawyers are obliged to
nav a yearly tax of ten dollars We think a
similar law in Iowa would not only be just
and appropriate but very beneficial to COM
munity.
