A REFUGEE FOR THE TRUTHS SAKK

A REFUGEE FOR THE TRUTHS SAKE.
A Chattanooga letter writer says:
This morning, attending the ser
vices in the post chapel, we heard a
sermon preached by the Rev. J. H.
Caldwell, of Newman, Georgia. which,
Tor earnest and eloquent denunciation
OF the practice and effect of slavery,
and for clear and logical perception of
the result of this war, was certainly
the ablest and most effective dis
course it has been my lot to hear.
Mr.. Caldwell is South Carolinian.
nearly related to John G.. Calhoun,
and has been Shareholder all his life.
having inherited about a score of
slaves. He has always lived South, is
a member of the Methodist Episco-
pal Church South, and of the Geor
gla Conference. He claims, and I
doubt not its truth, to have been
originally. opposed to secession,
though going with his own section in
the war, when the fatal die was
thrown.
The war has made him Door. His
negroes have left, stock run off, and
farm run down. Fifty thousand dol
lars would not make him whole.
After the issuing of the Amnesty
Proclamation of President Johnson,
Mr. Caldel, then preaching in the
town OF Newman, and at church two
miles off, preached two sermons, one
of which I heard this morning.
After listening | wondered not at
Mr.. Caldwel's statement, that large
portion of his congregation left be-
fore he had finished

agreed to:
Resolred, That Commission, con-

Of the State, and thntthe Legislature
Tx the compensation of said Commits

A resolution from the Committee
on Amendments to the Constitution
was amended SO rs to read as follows:
Hereafter, there shall be CAPITA
ton tax laid by the General Assembly,
which, upon each poll, shall never be
less than one-fourth of the tax laid on
one hundred dollars worth of land,
it being left to the General Assembly
to determine what inhabitants Of the
State shall be excepted from the ope-
ration of the law" was then agreed
to, and was referred to the Revisory
Committee.
Messrs. Simonton, Frierson and
Dudley presented reports from COM
mittees.
Mr.. F. W. Pickens introduced the
following clause for the Constitution;
which was referred to the Committee
on Amendments to the Constitution:
''For debts hereafter contracted,
no real estate shall be subject to levy
or execution but this shall not be
construed so as to prevent any legal
process against the rents and profits
OF the same

ry Committee

van in the Chair, to consider the re-
port of the Committee on Amend
ments to the Constitution; and after
free discussion Of the subject, the

tied in each census:

Thus, the colored race has fallen
from rearly one-ffth of the whole
1ass of population to about one
seventh. This is the showing of
figures taken five years ago. The war
undoubtedly has had the effect to
lessen the proportion of the co1ored
race. It is apparent, therefore, that
the race is losing ground steadily, but
by natural causes and at regular rate.

Isalton Head end Beaufort.

Hilton Head presents the appear
ance of busy little town, although
1T is nothing but a creation of mill
tiry necessity. But one house stood
there when our forces first took pos
session of the place. The Hilton
Head expedition and the subsequent
occupation of Beaufort are still re-
membered as one Of the first cheer
ing successes of the war Since then
considerable number of neat houses,
large and small, has been built for the
accommodation of military and naval
officials.
A business street, Merchants Row,
has sprung up, giving evidence of
the commercial enterprise of our
army suffers. Extensive piers and
wharvcs afford the necessary accommo-
dations for the shipping, and clusters
OF naval and military workshops and
storehouseS are scattered on the
islands enclosing the spacious bay.
The harbor is said to be superior in
depth and security to those of Charles
ton and Savannah, and if. as seems to
be the intention, the Government
workshops and magazines remain
there permanently, Hilton Head is
likely to become one of the chief COM
meccial towns on the Southern coast.
A city has been laid out on one of
the islandsA considerable sums Of
money have already been invested in
lots, and if Northern energy and
enterprise take hold of the chances
presented here, the result can hardly
be doubtful. All that is necessary to
secure the future development of the
place IS o railroad connection with
Branchville. Here is spot for @
Northern colony in South Carolina.
An hours ride on steam tug took
us across the bay to Beaufort. The
appearance Of the town disappointed
my expectations. When our troops
TOOK possession of it in the early part
OF the war, it was described by the
newspaper correspondents as COM
posed OF the most elegant mansions,
IN which the wealthy planters of this
region ied luxurious life. sThero are
indeed some large houses in the
pace, put they are clumsy, sober
looking square structures, with no.
1nang OF that ornamental elegance
Whlch we are accustomed to find in
the country houses of the North. The
! town is at present almost exclusively
inhabited by colored people; 1 saw
but very few white faces there. An
ambulance ride to a plantation IN the
nelghhorhood was far more interest
ing.-Boston Adcertieer.

TROPICAL FRUITS than so
cargoes of foreign fruits arrives at
the port of New York annually, ex-
elusive of oranges :ana lemons, from
the Mediterranean. Cuba is its chief
source of supply for bananas and
cocoa-nuts, and the Bahamas for pine
apples. Cargoes Of bananas and cocoa
nuts ere commonly worth from 1000
to S10, 600, and pine apples say Sc, 900.
These figures depend largely upon
the length of tire voyage. If pro
tracted, the loss from decay is almost
rninons. The invariable mode Of
slowing cargoes IS to place layer of
bananas on the cocoa-nuts in the
hold, then construct Il rough scaffold
of boards for another tier, and above
is deck load. AS foreign ircit meets
with larger consumption IN the
United States than ever before. not
withstanding prices have 1acre than
doubled within few years, the West
India planters are turning their at
tention to this trade, instead OF their
former crops. In the Bah:amus. for
instance, the culture Of tobacco, once
very extensive, is almost abandoned.

From these figures,.i it will be seen
that while the ratio of increase of the
white race has been rising during the
last two decades, that of the negro has
been falling. It may be stated that
the great cause of difference is owing
to immigration, and that is why the
early increase of the blacks was. SO
great before the African slave trade
was closed up
The following table is still more
striking from its brevity. It shows
the respective proportions of the two
races in the United States, az exhi-
