Will not the people of Jackson open
their doors to the members of this
Convention
The foregoing query we find pro
pounded in the communication of "A
Citizen" in yesterdays Mississippian.
We will venture to answer in the
affirmative. The Teachers Conven-
ton assemblies here next Monday. In
the meantime, we should be glad to
have the names, at this office, of all
who may feel disposed to entertain one
or more of the delegates to the Con
vention. Wehope that none will wait
to be called upon, but that our citizens
will voluntarily tender the hospitali-
ties due to strangers coming here for
so praiseworthy purpose.

ing the return of peace, and embodyipe .
request from the Representatives that the
Governor cause salute of thirt, six guus
to be fired in honor of the event. The
House refused to hnve the resolution tou-
sidered EVERY VOTE AGAINST
THE RESOLUTION WAS CAST BY
REPUBLICAN, Euery vote endorsinq
the proclamation and hailine tie return of
peace, WAS CAST BY DEMOCRATS.
Is more evidence needed to prove the
so-called Republican leaders are opposed to
return ct peace Don't they, by such ac-
tion, declare unmistaksbly that they are
hostile to restoration of tie Union p
Nothing more Is wanted to show to the
people of Pennsylvania the disunion proc,
hvlties OF the leaders who are now running
John w. Geary as their candidate for
Governor. Will the intelligent people of
Pennsylvania follow in the wake of such
creatures who, though having subsisted ON
the plunder of wal for five years are not
yet satiated We hope not.-Patriot and

The Doomed Freedman.

We published, some time ago, an ex-
tract from speech of Senator Dolittlc, in
which the dreadful mortality among the
unfortunate blacks of the South was shown
from statistics Of unquestionable authentic =
ity. The Louisville Journal discusses the
same subject in an earnest and eloquent
leader from which we made the following
extract:
Twenty-niue negro paupers were buried
in this city last month, and one white pau
per. The record is black in more senses
than one. 1t marks tie gleam of philan-
thropy, so-called. 1t is )ustrious with
misery. 1t is the echo Of the treedman's
shout.
What is true of Louisville in this re-
spect is true Of every Southern city and
village and county. The mortality among
the negroes has been fearful, unprecedent
ed They have perished by the score, the
hundred, the thousand. They have
dropped down by the wayside, in the
crowded city, and in the woods. They
have died of species of cholera, or SIN all
pox, of vice, of filth, and starvation. We
have seen them coming from the planta-
tions with their bundles upon their backs
and their children in their arms, and crowd
ing into improvised tents in the neighbor-
hood Of negro camps, with nothing to pro-
tect them from the elements but rags, and
nothing to eat except what they might be
ohio m boor or ctaoI with noyar n tbo,ol3 .
for the future, and expecting, as a matter
of course, that the power that freed them
would take care of them.
1t has been computed BY many that one
million of these victims of secession and
philanthropy have Nanished from the
earth since lhc war began! We call that
costly, and, in humanitarian point of
view, horrible. 1t is not possible for us to
regard it as a pinilanthropic work. 1t
seems 10 us more like the elimination of
devil worship. If the philanthropists, so
called, consider it worthy of rejoicing
over, let them exult. Let the winds watt
their peans over the desolate fields of the
South, and mingle them with the piteous
means to which thousand old shanties,
lanes, and rag houses have listened from a
million of the sable sons and daughters of
Africa. Let them raise dark monument
and inscribe on one side "Philanthropv"
and or the other Secession :" and let an
index point to million of lowly African
graves, upon the rough head-boards of
which shall be painted, Humanity and
Freed om."
