considered the Bureau an incubus uron the
State. 1t intcrtcrcd between master and
scrv, +. Could get along better if the niger
was 10 to the natural laws which regulate
capital and labor. Tried to keep his niggers,
and did keep them the past Summer till after
the crop was in, and then tried to settle with
them for four dollars Il month, with such
deductions for food, sickness. breaking tools.
etc, as was just. Brought the niggcrs all Of
them in my debt and generously proposed
to let them work 1t out chopping cord wood
during the Winter. Hauled me up before
the Bureau, and was forced to pay them
each :;l5 per month. Consider the Bureau
is all that stands in the way of Reconstruction,
though the removal Of the Abolition Post

Of sound constitutional Democrat would
greatly assist in concliating the Kentucky
mind.
tried to get some niger testimony, but
could elicit nothing worth while. One mig
ger who spends Tie heft of his time at the
Corners was opposed to the Bureau because
it stopped rations on him; and Lucy, an
octoroon, who formerly belonged to and still
resides with Elder Gavitt (who is now absent
as a delegate to Southern religious cOnycn-
ton at Lousvile.) testified that the Bureau
"was no great shakcs,i because being as
the Elder was a widowcr and the father of
all her children, and being she a free wo-
man, she asked the agent to make the Elder
marry her. and he wouldn't do it, But such
evidence is prevalent, and didn't consider
it worth while bothering your EXccllcncy
with it. Both, however strongly insisted on
the removal of the Abolition Postmaster at
the Corners.
ABsLUM PETTUs
was convinced the Bureau was against the
prosperity of the State, and was undermin-
ing the moral and physical welfare of the
niger. 1t made him impudent. Had some
of them working for him, and noticed at
moons and nights he'd find them with spell
ing book ard a reader. Didn't believe in
reading. Couldn't read himself, but had a
cousin once who learned, but as soon as he
could read he moved off to Indiana, quit the
Democracy, and become loathsome Adolf
ZIONIST. lleared he was killed in the war
and served him right. Wanted to know
what he would do when the niggers could all
read. Supposed we'd have to elect them to
office, as the people always selected such
when they could find them. Didn't believe
in Niger equality. and was i'll favor of an
immediate change in the Post Office at the
Corners.
CAPTAIN M'sIATHER
thought things had come to a sweet old pass
when a man couldn't lather a niger without
being hauled up before a Bureau.
COLONEL PETER
thought if your Excellency could witness
the corruption that existed in the Bureau,
you'd make short work of it. Why, he
