The DEGENEEAcY OF YorSo Men.
An exchange asks: "Why is it that
the proportion Of young men in this
country, who turn out badly, is SO
much larger than it used to be-" and
finds solution of its question in the
answer that "a spirit of false pride
induces parents to put their boys il
stores and Offices, rather than ap-
prentice them to good trades" s'NIe
chanics and laboring men, ;" the writer
adds, ''have too generally imbibed
the idea that they ought to place
their boys peg above the drudgery

York Tribune has the following para
graph. How it obtained its informa-
ton, We do not know, but we car
assure it that the meeting in question
was called by the leading colored pee
pie OF this city, and that it was very
largely attended, their societies being
all represented at it; and that the
whites had nothing to do with it, but
as invited speakers or guests, although
they regarded the proceedings witt
much interest:
''The reconstruction ratification,
meeting held in Columbia, S. c., al
which Wade Hampton spoke, turns
out to be farce of the most disgrace
full character. No freedmen were
present of their own accord, with the
exception of Beverly Nash, one OF
the speakers, and q few of his follow
ers, who are known to the colored
men generally as black copper
heads"
