FREEDNEN'S BUREAU AFFAIRS IN MIS-.
SOURI, AND ARKANSAS

The Assistant Commlss lorer of the Freed
mt as Bureau IN the States of Missouri and
Arn'nsas, in his last report, says that 1t is an
Indisrutabie fact that very much of the cheer
ful industry of the freedmen is owing TO the
confidence they have III the military authorI-
ties and the bureau to protect them in their
civil and perronal rights. Under the present
laws there, the testimony of a negro cannot be
received In any court against a white man;
when. therefore. justice demands the admis-
sion OF such testimony, the cases are tried by a
court of this bureau. When negro ties LimOny
be dispensed with, the cases are turned
over to the civil courts.

case of Mary r. Radcliffe agt W. A Malone
was argued by Messrs. Brent ard MerrIck for
