:. The next plantation, that Of a
brother of Major Whaley, was being
worked by as jolly and hight hearted
q set of blacks as we have seen. The
terms We're liberal, almost too much
So. Three days in the week they
worked for Mr.. Whaley, and received
half the crop for so doing. The rest
OF the week they worked for them
selves on land furnished by Mr.
Whaiey, who advanced provisions to
them, which were to be paid back at
harvest time,
The next plantation, that Of Mr..
townsend, was worked much on the
same plan. The contract being not
quite SO liberal.
Early the following morning we
started for Edisto Island, where we
found that the plantations were being
worked partly on shares and partly
by hands hired, and, paid SO much
per month. The usual terms being a
third of the crop for. furnishing the
land, or two-thirds Of the crop when
the person furnished the rations.
- Some considerable trouble, had
been occasioned by the certificates
that the negroes had received under
General Sherman's order, with refer
ence to abandoned plantations. The
different names by which these certi-
ticates were called was somewhat
amusing. One called it his sstiffity,
another his Stiffness and third
the t'fertif.'
The storekeepers on Edisto were
disposed to be more honest. and if
they told the truth, did not charge
more than half for their wares that
the person on Mr.. Underwood's plan
tatlon charged. A story that Mr..
John Townsend tells of his effort TO
import German labor, to cultivate
MS place, comes to me aud is worth
telling:
.'They cost me $s5 each to bring
them to Charleston from New York.
l fed them far better than ever I
thought of feeding my hands, even
gave them coffee and saur kraut,
when what should they do but de
mand butter for their bread and milk
for their coffee, and the next thing
tie whole crowd left me-" This gen.
tleman donated 800, 200 in gold to
the Confederacy at the commence
ment Of the war. The inspection on
Edisto Island ended with dinner
given to the party by colored man
named Bran, who was for IL long
time pilot in the employ of the Co
vernment, but is now engaged in run

therefore directed:

Parson Brownlow on NEGRO Suffrage

is h ernlded abroad by the Radical press.
bnt they fail to give us lis views on ne
gro suffrage. He said the other day

Governor, the convention called me out
upon this subject. when | distinctly told

making him equal before the law. and
that that was all / proposed TO do for

frage In my regular message of Octo-
Der last, | made quite a lengthy argu-
ment against admitting negroes, indis-
criminately. to the ballot box. and | am
vain enough TO believe my argument
there given was one of some ability My
views have undergone no change since
then.
President johnson. since the date of
my message, published to the world,
through Major Starnes of Boston, and
through Judge Sharkey, that he was in
favor of admitting to the ballot box, all
negroes who could read and write: all
who had served in the United States
army: all who owned property to given
extent, say $3.50. and then gradually, he
proposed to admit all others TO the bal
lott box, as they became qualified to vote.
The President dispatched to Nashville
that it was right and proper that the ne
gro should be allowed to testify in the
courts of the country. and but for the in
tluence he eNerted, the bin favoring ne
gro testimony would have failed. l IA
vored this measure first, as right in
itself, and next as the only means to get
ting our delegation into Congress
Strange to say, the men who abuse me
are loud in their praise of the President.
The difference between him and myself
is that he is gradually looking to the
South, whilst | look to the North. and
stand by the principles OF my message
in which | advocate setting them apart
country to themselves The hostility
existing between them and the whites of
the South, confirms my.conyiction OF the
correctness of my proposition to thus set
apart a suitable country. 1t would be
economy on the part of the government.
Many of the intelligent negroes are in
favor of this scheme.
