The speaker was little boy not more

locked very harsh and disagreeable Just

He stood in beautiful garden, in the

All it waa seldom the beggar boy saw

transformation of the negro from slavery
to freedom. Law, custom, habit, have
ever known him as slave. ".and treated
him as such. That, he is an inferior Is
true, and, will ever remain so. God has
implanted it in his nature, and no human
power, directed to his education and re.
fuement, will ever be able to change the
condition. While. therefore, as a negro,
he is not to be regarded as an equal, as
a freedman under the law, he is not to be
treated AS a slsve. .., FL,
While the large majority of Southern
society will recognise this distinction, the
world is not perfect, and bad men exist
everywbere-men who are slow TO recog-
nize the claims of law, and are equally
Indifferent to the behesls of an enlighten:
ed humanity. From such the negro is
destined to suffer until the guardianship
OF society shall be thrown completely
around him. They are generally men
who have never borne TO the slave the
relation of master---a relation that seldom
failed to inspire the heart with a jealous
regardsfor his rights, earnest solicitude
for his welfare, aud a generous forbear-
ance for his faults. From those who are
uneducated in this great moral school,
the negro will continue to receive con-
tempt and injustice, and, we fear, some-
times, cruelty. 10 protect him against
such influences, and at the same time, to
exact from him respect and obedicnce %
law, will be the duty Of every good citi-
zen and patriot. s ataaeo bs1.a
Taking these rules for our guide; we
may enter upon our new relations with
the black race in the South with some
hope Of successful civil aud industrial
upion.a Disregard them, and we may
look forward to a (" sea of troubles" and
stlife. Every public and private interest
must suffer. if indeed, we shall not be
called upon to face casmities at which
the world will stand aghast, ,s /

The Need of the South.

The South hast vast material resources,
but. is destitute Of skill and Interested la
Dor! She will remain poor until, by ed
ucation and remuheralive wages, she in.
terests her laborers in her development.
An educated working. man will do as
much work as dozen ignorant men.
Massachusetts, with her small amount of
skilled laborers. gets as many days work
done as the whole South did out Of her
uneduca,ed slaves before tie war. Nat.
urally Virginia is tho richest State in the
Union, save Missouri really she is one
of the poorest. The difference between
what God has done for her and what she
has done for herself, is the difference be-
tween educated and uneducated labor.
The South needs skilful and interested
labor, and her hostility toward the freed
man, her refusal to pay him remuneratiye
wages, her denial to him OF education and
political lights is the spiteful expression
Of a spirit which gratifes its prejudices
at the expense.of its pocket. 1t is another
method of biting off the nose to spite the
face. Let the South get sober, cease cur
sing the freedmen, and obey the laws Of
political economy. Then she will send
her laborers and their children to school,
will'gve them an equal chance in life, will
pay them fair wages for fair work, and
will thus obtain skilfull, economical and
diligent laborers, who will enable her
successfully to complete with any section
of the Union. - G.. Wmchman .-@ ssai"

TRE WAY OF TEE woELD.

There goes virtuous and honest man.
/ Who cares? Nobody looks at him or cares
a Zig how ha looks or dresses.
! Here passes man of wealth. The old
ladies run to the window. Who?"
Where% How does he dress?" He
is great object OF attention. " How in
the world did he make SO much?' He
doesn't look as if he was worth penny"
yhis is the way Of the world. Every.
body gazes with admiration upon the rich
while they turn away from virtuous pow
er,y. Let man make ten thousand dol
lars, and he is a gentl leman, every inch of
him. Every body has kind word and a
smile for him.
Be poor and honest, AMI no one knows
you. len and women have heard Of such
a name as yours, and you may live at
their elbow. but they are not certain
about It. l
Possess fortune, and live at the nile
post, and your neiyhbors and friends will
Iine the heart OF the city. All would
know where you live, and point a sLrsu
ger to the very door F-5fde@
We epeat--such is lhe world. Golden
vice is caressed, while humble virtue is
unobselved.
Will the time never. neUer come when
men shall be houored for their virtues
and deSpised for their vices, rather than
be caresSed for their riches and condemn
ed for their poverty? Everybody in
words, censures tho idea of honoriug the
rich because they are rich, and yet such
are the regulations Of society that every
body does humble in his manners and
feelings in the presence of the upper
ten thousand" As long as the ladies
will associate with the voluptuous rich
and sbun the virtuous poor, SO long will
vice be considered no disgrace, and wealth
will pay for the sacrifice Of virtue.
