CONDITION OF FREEDMEN IN KENTUCKY.

WASHINGTON, August 23.-The Assistant Com,
missioner OF the Freedmen's Bureau in the state
VI VI hSeImtucky, SENDS IN long report, OF which
the following Is an abstract:-
The State is divided into five sub-districts and
lhe agents OF the Bureau in these sub-distrlcts
report that the freedmen, generally speaking
are mdustrlously employed at fair wages. There
are some, however, who prefer a life of vagrancy
and idlehess. If, IN such cases, the persons were
Whlte, the laws of the State relative to Vagrancy
would be rlgidiy enforced, bat the determine
ton OF the civil authorities to ignore the legality
or consututIonality of the Bureau is carried to
such an extent, as to lead them to treat with
contempt all applications and requests from the
bureau ofhcers for their cooperation, in cases
OF this kind. Notwithstanding this the Com
missioner states that from all the reports he has
received, he can assert with truth that 90 per
cent. OF the freedmen in Kentucky are self
supporting. There are thirty schools tor Colored
children IN the state, with an average attend
ance of 1928 scholars. These SCHOOLS were
mostly organized by the members of the various
Colored churches, and most OF the church
buildings are used as school houses, The pastors
OF the churches IN many instances being en-
pIoyed as teachers.
Captain Merrill. the Inspector of Schools,
gives report highly commendable TO the freed
men. He says:-The children, in most cases,
present the capacity, and are eager to learn,
and the chiet delight of the heads of families
seems To be to save enough of their earnings to
educate their children. The Inspector further
states that the only protection these schools
nave is from the Bureau. In fact the schools
lnIougnout the state are much annoyed by
set OF malignant white citizens, who term them
selves Regulators. At Glasgow, in Barren
county, the freedmen's school was twice broken
up by these same Regulators, the children and
teachers being driven out and brutally
DDeaten. For the want of troops the
Bureau could render no assistance, and
tt was only when the commanding gene
raj gave the colorcd people permission to
arm themselves that the school was re-estab
lished. Lately at Mount Sterling a freedmen's
school was broken up by party OF whites and
the teachers driven out of the State, and still
more recently the school AT Bowling Green, Ky.,
was broken up, and was only restored on the
arrival OF United States troops. The Legislature
OF the State, at its session In December, 1865
passed bill which is now law, taxing every
male negro and mulatto over l8 years of age
the sum of 81 for the education of his children.
yet no provision for colored schools has yet been
made by the authorities. The Commissioner
tprther reports that in most parts of the State
IRe ieelng OF the inhabitants Is very bitter, not
