TIE NEGROES NEW MASTERS
The Mobile Register makes centre

Let it be explained to the negroes
that out of every 100 pounds of cotton
that they raise they pay SD to Il
New England master. The new mas
ter gets more clear profit from the
negro labor than his former master
ever got, and he lives way off yonder

tinental how his negroes fare, so long
as he puts into his pocket one third
of all his negroes earns. The ne

HORACE GREELEY AND JEfFE 4
SON DAVIS

MI Gitc.cS deserves anu Wa ~
ceiye the thanks of the Southern
people, fW his manly and consistent
course in relation to the imrrson-
ment and release of Mr.. Davis.
His magnauimity, it seems, has called
down upon him the deEunciatious OF
some of the more Radical journals at
the North. Here is the way lie de
tends himself:
PIIARISEIlS BOWLING,
From the n. I. Tlbunc, May lj.l
The release OF Mr.. Davis affords
to some ofour contemporaries a pre-
text for malignant vitupcration
The editor OF this Journal is howled
at VITA Il Niu9lctiycness which is
comforting, so far as it shows that
the tongues Of certain Of oar reNi.ers
have not yet clcavcd to the roofs OF
their mouths. Let that pass as the
idlo wind which we heed not. One
or two observations, however, may
be vtntured in reference to a matter
Which seems to excite more than
ordinary interest.
Jefferson Davis vas taken prisoner
two years since. lie was arrested
as an assassin- for his arrest the
government paid the. .ssgtee with,
hundred ni, tiI2us9@~il ll;aov, in o.iI ~
President eESbaras. -, Az, '. - ..ta
the accomplice of Wilkes Booth. He
was thrown into Il dungeon, and
manaclcA, and held in haraSsing
durancc. As an assassin, especially
as the assassin Of Mr.. Lincoln, this
rigor and vigilance did not seem M
necessary, and we were content.
With all the proof the administra-
ton claimed to have, was it not wise,
nay, Was it not due to the memory
of the maltyred dead, that speedy |
justice should be visited upon the |
great offender! Certainly, if Jei1er-
son DAVIS was concerned in the aSSas- .
sinatiOu of MIR. Lincoln, he was the /
chief assassin. The wretch who was
shot. the four wretches who were |
so swiftly hanged, one midsummcra
day, We're the mere instruments III
the hands Of the great criminal
This belief induced Mr. Davis arrest, |
and the payment of an enormous re-
ward. What came OF the arrest !
With evidence of his guilt in the |
possession Of Mr.. Stanton-with a |
hundred generals only too happy to /
be assigned to court martial duty
with the courts open, able lawyers |
and district attorneys duly commits |
stoned, the great criminal was per
nitted to remain in prison, ANA not I
Il word was said Of Justice. For two |
years this has continued, and now, at I
the end Of two years, the govern
mcnt permits him, an unpublished
assassin, to he taken from prison and
on bail. II this is right
now, when did it become right 4! II,
after all the government has no
evidence showing the completely Of
DAVIS and Booth, why was net the

Wei, it was as a traitor and not

Organize School Districts,

We would again call The attention Of the
qualified voters of The several Civil Districts
aud Sub-School Districts to organize, at once,
under the School law. There is, at this time,
over eight bundled thousand dollars School
funds ready to be distributed to the several
School districts, as soon as they have COM
Piled with the School law.
We are truly glad to know that our people
are awakening up upon the sabject o. eau-
cation in our country, Let our School law
be fully carried out, and all the children,
who nave a mind and will to do so, can re-
ceive a good education. We hope That
School-houses wi. be erected in every Sub
District and efficient teachers at once en-
ployed to train and discipline the mind and
hearts of the young. Then Still-houses, and
other sinks Of ihigu'ty, will vanish from our
midst.
Every family should take and read one or
more Of the many newspapers published
and as the "Union Flag" is second to no
country newspaper in the State, We call upon
all the people to subscribe for and pay for a
copy Of this paper. Every week we expect
to publish articles that viii interest and in
struct all classes OF individuals engaged in e
legitimate business. Every individual should
be posted in the doings Of our State Legisla-
ture and, as Congress will soon be in SEES
sion, we expect to give to the public the do
ings of that body of lawmakers. We shall
also publish articles that will interest and in
struct farmers and mechanics. A portion Of
our paper will also be devoted to religious
aud moral subjects. Send on your subscrip-
tionS Immediately.

one Of great interest. We came as far as
Fort Simpson by the Inside passage. The
scenery along those inner channels 10 truly
magnificent and beyond Ithe power Of my
pen to describe properly. The channel Is
soout 500 yards wide, with mountains on
each side nearly perpendicular, and thous-
ahds of feet In height, aud their tops covered
With snow. Here and there you see beau.i-
ful waterfalls from the mountain tops rush
ing down from great heights into the streams
below. We took soundings at many places,
aud or several occasions paid out as much as
800 fathoms withOuthnding bottom. At night
the effect was beautiful, and reminded me OF
sailing through an immense tunnel, the arch
studded with stars. After leaving the inner
passage we entered a wider stream or bay,
surrounded with Sngar-loaf shaped noun
tains1 and one Of them attracted the special
attention of all of us, 1t was about 900 feet
high, and consisted Of a number of peaks
covered with snow, and presented the appear
ance somewhat of an encampment, This
was the character OF the scenery we passed
through for one whole week, sometimes com
ing to anchor at night, We remained at Fort
Simpson a week, waiting for clear weather to
get astronomical observations but had to
leave without making amy on account Of the
cloudy weather. On the goth instant we will

HORRIBLE I

The recent act Of the Legislature giving
to the holders Of irst-claSs Railroad ti,kets,
regardless of color, the right to select their
own seats in the cars, has aroused the ire Of
the Conservative quid NuneS to the highest
pitch. A war, long, terrible and bloody be-
tween the two races Is right at hand. This
is Vie spark Of the devouring flames that
win sweep over the country with demon fury
making II q common hideous ruin from one
extremity so the other. Haters of the negroI

arms!I Ethiopia is on the rampage. Arise,
Arise, or soon your superiority as race will
perish ir the deadly shadow of her banners.
We are often asked how we like the law.
Whether right or wrong, polItic or impolitic
we do not say. If it don't suit ps to ride
with the colored people we shah not DO so.
If it does we will. We shall consult our
own pleasure as to that. We r~eccllect very
distinctly when Southern Chivalry was in
the palmy days of its luxurious ease and glo-
~ that its brave sons and fair daughters en-
route to the Eastern watering places were in
variably attended by black servants, who
rode in the same car with them and no one
ever thought Of objecting. Blu. Sambo and
Diuah are now free, and have a peculiar
odor that cannot be borne BY the sensitive
olfactories of the weak-stomacbed South
runs. Time makes changes. What is pleas
ant to-day is disgusting tomorrow. There
is a vast difference between the negro a
slave, and the negro a freeman.
