what may be termed the peasantry Of the
South, and whatever makes you wiser and
better, whatever may make you more industri-
GUS and frugal, must make you more useful
members of the community in which you may
live. The SUN of human action is made up
of the discharge or of the violation of duty.
He who best understands what duty is, will
be most likely to discharge it efficiently
Therefore, it is, that whatever adds to man s
intelligence, adds to his capacity for useful
and wishes well for his country, desires to see
the growth and spread of knowledge among
all classes of the population. Northern poll
ticians affect to believe that the white men of
the South are your enemies, and that they
will not deal justly by you. You will find,
however, that the Southern people are in fact
your best friends, and if you will take the
trouble to reflect, you will see why this must
be so. Apart from the national sympathy we
must feel for people with whom we have
been familiar from the cradle, with whom we
have had such long and such intimate social
relationships, from whom we have received
and to whom we have extended SO many Offices
of kindness, and who we know not to be re-
sponsible for the great changes which have so
disastrously affected us, we must protect your
industry and promote your happiness by wise
laws and a just administration, because our
most manifest interests will require this of us.
Only think now. If you are pcaceablc and
orderly. industrious and honest wekpow that
you will be useful to us, while if you are idle
and disordcrly, we know that you will be USE
less and pest. Is it not then our interest to
inspire you with motives of good conduct? 49,,
FSsshsr en- ys saaT thss i SGs ahas
you are respected aud projected, you will have
a very large measure of motive to honesty and
industry. And if, on the other hand, you
should find that no virtue can shield you from
we know that you will want much
of that motive to good conduct, Which he who
acts from his own volition must have, to be-
come useful member of society We have
acquiesced in the results of the recent war,
and, like wise and brave people, will endeav
or to make the best of situation from which
we cannot escape"
This is what said, and this was kindly re-
ceived, and feel sure that if the men of the
country, of position and influence, would seek
opportunities to speak to these people, much
good would result. remained on the ground
about fifteen minutes; the people were quiet
and orderly. Respectfully, your servant,

GRuENvILLE May 9Th, 1866
Messrs. Editors: I beg you will do me the
favor to insert the following in your pancr.
On the evening of the first Of Nav ]. said
something to the frend,aon What i snid. d.has.
been grossly, perhaps wilfully perverted, and
make THE communication merely that the
people may know what did say. Iallow that
any man is free to applaud or condemn, a0.
cording to his own convictions of right and
truth, my public. acts. | have never been so
foolish AS to expect universal appreciation. l
have not even hoped to escape the puny as.
aaults of that petty and coutenptible malice
which seeks to wound by imputing unworthy
neti.ea. One knows SO we'll that thew who
are habitually controlled by evil influences are
80 apt to ascrlbc corrupt intentions to others,
that one soon learns to expect nothing either
just, generous or manly from such sources
About 1 o'clock in che afternoon of the 1st
Of May, some gentlemen, curious to see how
the blucks were conducting themselves, cauic
to my office, and proposed that accompany
them to the place where they were cougrega.
ted. freddy consented. AS our party ap
preached near to the multitude, we were met
by several persons, who seemed to DO the mas.
ters of the ceremonies, and were very kindly
and courteously requested to draw nearer and
look at their table. Well, we consented but
before we had penetrated far, the whole mul
titude began to call upon me to speak to them
And though when j left my Office I had no
more expectation of making speech than
had Of committing murder, felt that an
opportunity for good had offered itself, and
said "i am pleased to see that you enjoy you,
holiday in innocent rccreatioa The earth has
been made beautiful for every living creature,
and God is willing that every heart should re-
enjoy holidays now and then. The vast ma.
jority of the days Of every mans life must be
days}of labor God has said that 8 in the
sweasof thy face, shalt thou eat bread, and
since that utterance human life has been a
accne Of earnest; continuous toll. No man
has a right to be idle, and in all, ages and
countries, and in all phases of society, they
have been found to be happiest who have most
remembered this Some people seem to think.
perhaps you may imagine, that the interests
of the white and black races in the South are
antagonistic. But this is sad mistake. Hu.
man society is 80 constituted that It is impos.
sible to dissever the true interest of one clg u
ia community from that Of another Your
people constitute in the South a large MAORI
ty of What is called the laboring population,
and while this 1850, what affects you njuri.
ously must injure all. We cannot dispense
with your labor, aud you will find that we are
equally necessary to you. 1t has SO fallen out
that we must live together in ono, common
country, aud the best interests of both classes
require that we should live together on terms

Words Of Kindness.

w OrQS OF Kindness.
Ever speak in tones Of kindness
To the sad and weary heart,
Never let All unkind answer
Cause the bitter tear to start;
For how many spirits broken.
Crushed beneath world of care,
Have been checred by kind words spoken,
Cheer'd their weary load to bear.
Nome tho human soul can fathom
None its mysteries can explore;
'Tis : n ondcrful creation
Launched on Times eventful shore:
And while earth it's wings shall tramme,
Few the pages we may read,
But i'll glory We may view it
When from mortal vesture freed
Like an instrument of music
1t is delicate strung,
Then ne'er let a note Of SORROW
From its tender chords be wrung;
But may gentle words awaken
Sounds of JOY, and peace, and love,
such as angel choirs are breathing
In the courts of light above.
Then ever speak in tones of kindness
10 tho sorrowstricken heart,
And ne er let word or action
Cause the bitter tear to start;
For how many spirits broken
Bound beneath load OF care,
Have been oheer'd by kind words spoken
Cheerd their daily cross. to bear.
