alike admonish US to give him all the concomi-
tants Of what he regards so great boon.
Emancipation has changed our relations to
him most essentially. So long as he was a
slave, though his moral training was not neg
lected,- it was our policy to prohibit him from
learning to read and write Now it is our
policy to enlighten and elevate him, for it
makes him more trustworthy, and reduces
crime and pauperism-in our midst
In every slaveholding couatry, the owners
have endeavored, By stringent legislation and
a rigorous police, to guard against the dangers
of revolt and urrection-itSurrection to Sc
cure freedom; this was the reason why the
legislation in the South required t e presence
ola white man on every farm or plantation
where there were ten or more slaves, that a
vigilant watch might be kept over them and
their movements. The necessity has ceased,
and the law should he ignored
A well digested law, organizing a proper
police force to aid the magiStracy in suppress
ing lawlessness and in enforcing law aud or
der in the community, might prove a safe
guard to society, but the operations Of the
Bill under consideration, in my Judgment,
would be most pernieious.

MY DEAR Sir. Your letter of the 81 in

you referred, but it has not yet reached me.
and have not had the pleasure of reading
your editorial bat Judging from the remarks

relief. '.-.@ = ,g..-1.~. .'.~
:" 1t is a source ofdeep regret and mortif
cation to me, and ny family and friends that
such misunderstanding should exist in re-
gard to my circumstances. 1t is true that al
most the wi ole of my little fortune has been
swept away. My noble husband, actuated by
patriotism, invested in Confederate bonds to
assist the Government, and followed his ex-
ample, the consequence was the loss of nearly
theswhole of his estate; but God has still left
to me one of the kiadeSt fathers, who has the
means Of providing all the comforts oflife for
me and my orphan child: The pecuniary Suf;
ferings of.others in our afflicted lands have
been so muc greater t9an my own, that, in
this respect, I have only need ola more thank
ful heart. And !, ofaN others, should have no
fears for the future, for the. covenant-keeping
Godof my husband has watched. over us here
tofore, and the love ofthis great people to me
and my little child, on his account, fills my
heart with grateful Joy. ......
'While it is one Of the greatest comforts Of
my desolate life to see the many beautiful and
eloquent tributes to the memory of my be-
loved husband, and I would gratefully accept
any offerings that are voJuntorily gioen as tes-
tim0nials Of 1oce and gratitude to him, yet the
contributions that are now-caled for are Civ
en- under J0lSe impression, al it is incon-
sistent with my ideas of honor and rectitade
to receive them. would therefore, beg that
all efforts that are made to raise fund for
my relief both in Charleston and elsewhere,
be Immediately stopped.
