rie..tit o,,, 81, that Line.

A planter or tbs Parish of Iborvillc, La,
has addressed Tho following communication
to the Foednen'D Aid Association Of New
Orleans: ~# .H
GENTLEMEN-I am planter of twelve
years experience; this year am working
twelve hands, six men and six women my
laborers are to get ne-fourth OF tho net pro-
ceeds of the crops. They have full under
standing of the interest in the said crops. -
Our contract was made on the lst OF Feb
ruary last, and the result so far is q complete
success; We have to day S5 arPents ofeotton;
25arpents Of sugar canes; IS arpents OF corn,
alls in perfect condition. / don't mention
the vegetable crops.
Under tho old system ten arpcnts to the
hand was considered fair result, and more
than three-fourths of the plantations failed TO
come to that standard.
My laborers are all good people, behaving
well, having good common sense; they are
honest and true to their family, Besides the
crop in common, they have raised for their
private account small crops of corn and
Vegetables; they have poultry, etc., of their
own.
Not a single difficulty has occurred among
them since they have agreed to work on my
farm.
Thus is the whole labor problem solved
Deal justly, give the freedmen some intorcs
in their work, and there will be no trouble
In this case fifty por cent, more Of rounC
is cultivated than the Same number of hand
cultivated under the old system, and thu
probability is that the planter will make
that per cent. more. 1t is probably best tC
peg away" "aat the old shareholders, till the,
conclude to deal justly, and thus Eight i
out on that line" 1t is nothing but shoe
uglinoss on their part that causes all th
trouble and indicts all the distress uponth
freedmen.

working. and .Thanking.

1t is no less fatal error to despise
labor when regulated by intellect, than
to value it for its own sake. We are
always, in these days, trying to sepa-
rate the two; we want one man to be
always thinking, and another to be al
ways working, and we call one II gentle
man and the other an operative; where
as, tho workman ought often to be
thinking, and the thinker ought often
to be working; and both should be
gentlemen in the best sense AS 1t is,
we make both ungentle, the one envy
ing, and the other despising his brotheri
and the mass of society is made up OF
the morbid thinkers and miserable
workers, Now it is only by labor that
thought can be made healthy, and only
by thought that labor can be made hap
py, and the professions should be liber-
al, and there should be less pride telt
in peculiarity of employment, and more
in excellence Of achievement.

Another Theory Of Davis Trial,

Col. Forney, in dispatch TO the Press
referring to the trial of jeff Davis, gives
the following theory:
''I think it will result that every trial like
that of Payne and his associates, and now
Of Wirtz, has direct and preparatory bear
ing on the case of Jefferson Davis. That
he was cognizant of every atroclty cannot
be denied indeed, it is not denied His
own silence is not that of wounded pride,
but studied, and, doubtless, q counseled
apprehension that his knowledge of, If not
his direct completely in, these crueltes will
be established. You may take any OF the
chief criminals of the rebellion, who de-
liberately violated the rules Of war, and it
will be shown that they had the sanction OF
Davis. The confessions OF Beae and Ken
ncdy, who were executed at Now York
proved that they acted by authority The
attempt to convey the plague into our grea
cities by Blackburn the deviish invention
of Harris and Oldham; the composition
of Professor MCCULLOUGH (; the fiendish bar
barity of Wirz, who seemed to revel in the
murder of his victims, and in the success
of his contrivances herobberies and rald'
of the Northern border, like the plan te
fire the theatres and hotels of New York
and others, were only parts of one granc
system, and were as well known to Jefferson
Davis as the mutilations at Bull Run, the
torpedoes at Williamsburg, the horrible
agonios of the prisoners at Libby and Bell
Isle, and the nameless infamies upon th'
colored lprisoners. Gradually and surol.
the warp and the woof Of testimony is be
ing prepared, and when it is completed
will be closely and compactly woven int
tho conviction of the greatest traitor sine
the days of Judas Iscariot. "

the little girl, whose form up to the age OF
