CROPS, ETC-From what We can learn
from persons living in different parts of the
country the crops are in hattering condi-
ton bidding fair to make a most excellent
Weld The recent cold spell did not. as an
ticipated interfere with the crop now grow
ing nor did it iniure the fruit trees, a fact
which we take pleasure in recording The
freedmen are doing as well as could be eX-
pected under the circumstances not work
ing as well of course as they did when IN
state of servitude but, taking everything
into consideration, performing their duty in
a manner that gives pretty general satistac-
ton to their employers. There Is a DISPOSE
ton tits true, among the negro women To
eschew ANYTHING like field work, considering
il uplady-like and not in accordance with
the usages which obtain among their late
mistreSseS But we think it more than prob
able they Will get the better OF their high
falutin notions in this regard, and make
themselves seryiceable members of society.
Every negro has some white person in his
eve whom he would tain act discrimination
being one of the predominant traits Of the
African character-Ca TrolltOn Conservative.
- The Louisville Journal publishes
letter from Starkville, III this State of
which the following is a portion:
have seen it stated in some of the North
eru papers that a Yankee could not live in
the South. Well, | am a live Yankee
raised as an abolitiouist in Owen Loyeloys
town. and have worn the blue about three
and a half years. and, after coming out of
the army. l came South to raise old king
Cotton" lived in Tennessee last year, and
came to this place last December, and found
here Il number Of men whom | faced in more
than one hard-fought battle; and Yet better
treatment was never given to a stranger than
l have received at their hands. Some may
say that | only live in one portion Of the
South, and cannot be able to judge of the
other portions. | can state for the benefit
OF those that | have been in some four Of
the Southern States, and have travelled from
eight to ten hundred miles, and my observa-
ton leads me to say that the Southern PEG
pie can be trusted, and will do better by
themselves than when guarded by the boys
in blue We have a good example of this
in this county. We do not have one OF
those fine pieces of government furniture
here that our honorable President Gall honor
to his name) so lately marred the beauty of,
and the freedmen are all doing well, and
you cannot see any of them loating about,
as Won do where the bureau provides for
them. Here they are all getting along well
and getting good wages and as long as the
demand for labor Is as great as 1t Is all over
the South, there need be no fear that the
freedmen viii not be treated well
