CURIOUS REVELATIONS OF SOUTHERN
L1PR.-The records Of the freedmens
courts in the South will throw new
light upon the condition of Southern
society under the slave system. The
NY. Times correspondent at Richmond
gives the following instances occurring
there:
"Rhoda Christian, freedwoman
brings action against man by the name
of Hughes, for the recovery Of property
informally willed to her by her late mas
ter. The evidence showed that Rhoda
and her master had lived together as
man and wife, and that one child was
the consequence thereof. A short time
| previous to his death, the master locked
up his funds, consisting Of money and
stocks, In box, giving RhOda the key,
which she still retains in her possession,
and made a memoranda, signifying his
desire that portion Of the contents
also should be given her. This paper
was not signed, but it has been proved
that it was in his handwriting. Hughes
took out letters of administration in
the case, and was proceeding to act un-
der them, when the war closed and
Rhoda brought this suit. According to
the old law of this state RhOda could
not apply to any court for relief because
the statutes made it a whipping Offtnse
for any cOlOred woman to live with a
white mau as his wife, and instead Of
getting her patrimony she would most
probably have received hundred
