Read Il to CoIored Men.

There Is . freedman living in Col
umbus, Georgia, by the name Of
Aaron Hunt. As a slave he was
universally respected In that city for
his good sense and his good behavior,
He has lately written a letter for the
Columbus Enqsirer, which we CON-
mend to the thoughtful perussl Of our
colored citizens. He says;

A Quaker's opinion.

The Washington correspondent Of
the Cincinnati Enquirer says:
Now, il happens that a Quaker
an old friend of mine.
who resides in Philadelphia, has lust
returned from Mobile and Memphis,
in which cities, and in other parts Of
Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana,
he has spent several months. You
know what the Quakers Of Philadel-
phia are, and how, for twenty years,
they have been the firm, fast, and
real friends OF the eolorod people.
Wei, this gentleman tells me that he
took particular pains to ascertain how
the Southern people treated the ne
grces under the new order Of things.
and he found Il to be, without excep
tion, as follows: That there was more
work TO be done, all over the South,
than could be done by twice as man
negroes as there are; that whenever
a negro Is honest and industrious.
and willing to work, be Is well treat
ed, and Is faithfully paid; that such
negroes are happy and contented, and
make no complaints; that when the
negroes are idle and impudent, and
will not work, but go around talking
abont equal rights and negro equality,
and stirring. up contentious between
the negroes and white people, there
Is sure 10 be trouble. The white pco-
pie never molcs. the negroes when
the latter attend 10 their own busi-
nee; but when they seek 10 thrust
themselves into the company OF white
people, and pirate about their equality
with them, Of course there win be
trouble"

This Knocking under" is too often claimed on bare asscrtions--or in other words, conclusions are too often the results or fruits of prejudices hastily enforced-and isapplicable in religious matters, in politics, in morals, in modes of life, and, in fact, in most business pursuits. With such as enforce this dogmatical style of arriving at conclu- sions, there is but seldom any hope of improvement.

 The city of Philadelphia has within the past few days ordered the Nicolson pavement laid through one entire street, two miles in length, by the request of the owners of property on the street. The whole expense is S2S0, ,000, and 1t is believed that it will add nearly half a million to the value of real estate on the street.
 s0 The all-important question, at least to stockholders, whether the At lantic cable would pay, has been satis- factorily answered by Capt. Sherard Osborn, who, in a communication to the London Times, states that the esti- mated receipts for the first year will reach f450,000, or within e150000 of the original cost of the last laid cable.
 The Galveston News states that short time since, as q steamer With a large number of passengers, ladies and gentlemen, were approaching the levee at Baton Rouge, La., four or five hum dred nigger soldiers were in plain sight, yelling and gesticulating, nearly all of whom WERE PERFECTLY NAKED This is in Sheridan's tetrarchy.
