take up after five or fifteen years, for |

Special Dispatch to the Missouri Democrat
MONTGOMERY, Ala, June 20.-Some
time since You published a series OF res
olu,ious passed by the white people OF
Marion, IN Perry county, Ala, in which
they spoke kindly of their former slaves,
and expressed desire to assist them IN
educating their children. Recently the
coiored people held meeting in the
Baptist church, at Marion, to respond to
this wise action, and passed the follow
ing resolutions: y is b t4sts
WHEREAS, The white citizens OF this
community, our former masters, have,
by series of resolutions, expressed their
appreciation Of the feeble attempts made
for the education Of our children, and
also their willingness to extenda helping
hand to US;
Resolved, That while we cannot but
rejoice at our Liberation from slavery,
we hold none but most pleasant feelings
toward our former owners, and rejoice
that feeling OF kindness and willing
ness to help US is so manifested by them.
Resolred, That as we believe we must
remain a part of the population of this
country, il is incumbent upon us TO cul-
tivate kindly relations between white and
colored, and that it is also an impera-
tive duty laid upon us to cultivate our
minds and to educate our children. s'
ResolUed, That committee Of seven
be appointed to confer with the gentle
men of the other committee and perfect
such arrangements as they believe they
will make for the improvement OF our
race, and we pledge ourselves to support
them with all the means in our power.
As Perry was one of the most populous
slave counties in the State, the above
may be considered highly encouraging.
