Adventures of a Colored Man.
(From the Nashville Banner.

About eighteen months ago, we gave an
acconnt of the discovery of a bag OF gold in
hollow tree, by colored man, not tar from
Dversburp, in West Tennessee. We have late

more remarkable. They relate to what the
lucky freedman did with his bag OF gold, and
what became of him after he had turned 1t into

friends, who gave him letter OF recommend

four thousand dollars in fve-twenty gold bear

colored man was Henry James. He remained
in Memphis three months, and being expert
and intelligent, learned before he quit the
nlace to read little little and shave a great
deal. Thence he repaired to New Orleans,
and became an employee Of La Vic, the
fashionable barber on Canal Street. His
handsome appearance naturally fine manners
and skill as hair. dresser brought him INTO
great popularity. He was also prudent as

his savings, which were considerable. Alter

HoRRIBLE BARBARIrIEs by AN AFRICAN
KING.-The latest news from Abyssinia
deveIopes King Theodore IN a still more
b!ooj',hirsly aspect. He had made an
expedition to the small Island OF Metrats,
in the Lake Tana, and put every iuhsb,
tant to death by FIRE; then he made a
trip to Ifag, loari.hing town in Foggata,
seized 500 peasants, placed them in five
large houses and burned them alive. 1t
is said there is now not a single man, wo
man or child, alive, between Debia Tabor
and Emfras, on the borders Of Dsmbea.
ln the camp, his Majesty has been pur
suing the same game. Having heard
tha, 1000 Of his troops wished to desert,
he had them surrounded by the others
and their throats cut like cattle; the
mothers, wives, children and nearest re-.
Ia.ives OF the men being pistoled by the
soldiery. 2e5 chiefs Of districts have had
their hands and feet cut off and have
been left to starye.

The Farming Business.

The Southern farmer wa, badly Grip
pied by the war, and also by unfsvora.
Bile seasons in 1855 and 1865 and now
by the low price Of cotton has blasted
his expectations in many respects, and
consequently he feels discouraged. The
unjust tax imposed by the Government
on cotton and tobacco has no. only iuiur.
ed the producer OF these articles, but has
curtailed the wages OF freedmen and 9th.
er laborers, and in that way done harm
to the country. The effect of these things
VIC are sorry TO believe, will be to lessen
the demand for labor, for no doubt mauy
will abandon the cultivation Of cotton to
a great extent, and turn their attention
to other products Of the soil, especially
wheat and corn.
A farmer in Georgia expresses his de.
termination in the following manner, and
it might be more profitable for others to
form the same resolution
"The low price Of cotton, though ruip-
Gus to US, will be advantageous in certain
results sure to follow. The demand for
negro labor will not be 80 great; we viii
have to hire for part Of the crop, and
let cotton be the surplus. shall pay
special attention to raising stock, plenty
of hogs, corn, rice, small grain, make the
plantation selfsustaining, and then what

extra, and what it brings we can keep in
our pockets. There will be a vast ch anpa
in the planting system heavy manur;ng
to make one acre bring its bale, and lying
out in pasture, where stock can be raised
and fed, plenty Of hogs, colts, cattle.

The storm has probably swep. completely

OF the island whole villages vanished be.

The REPEAL OF THE CoTroN Tax
AN IMPORTANT PRovIso.-The whole
body OF the Northern press and people,
not to speak OF the South, are now clam
oring for the immediate repeal OF the cot
ton tax. Not single voice, we believe,
has yet been raised against the measure,
and it seems to lie conceded on all sides.
that Congress will speedily respond to the
popular demand. We notice, however,
that some Of the leading New York jour,
mails suggest that, in the act Of repeal. a
clause should provide that no cotton
should be exempted except that which is
in the hands Of the producers. II is urg
ed that there will be no injustice in this
for those who have bought have made
their purchases with the knowledge Of
the law. This proposed proviso will
doubtless have tendency to check ship

shall have taken definite action in the
