NELtH'S LOVER.

It was noticed among the friends
Of George Lane that, for some cause
unknown to them, sober hue had
fallen on his thoughts. The reason
was inferred, and correctly. Arrows
from pair of bright eyes had
wounded him, and the pain found no
abatement night nor day. Was the
maiden coy or unkind {? No-the
maiden was familiar and tender.
There was healing in the eyes that
shot forth arrows.
And the pain found no abatement
night nor day? Nonel George Lane
was no blind lover, ready to risk all
:, consequences in pursuit of an object,
but q sensible young man, who count
ed the cost. This was the reason of
his trouble. Love is sweet, but life
is a thing of sober earnest; and as
George put the love and the life to-

he could not see how love was to leave
any permanent sweetness.

MORTALITY AMONG THE NEGRoEs.-The New Orle-
correspondent of the Chicago Times, in recent
letter, says:
Speaking of the increase and decrease of population
suggests the idea that would be in order to ask the
Radical majority in Congress to institute inquiry as to
the number OF negroes who have died since they were
taken Under the care aad protection OF the Federal
Government | have heard the number estimated at
half million, Some contend that these figures are
too high, others that they too low Now, as it
well known that no account kept of the number
OF negroes who died, the only way in which the fact
could be ascertaned would be to have the census Of
the coored population of all the Southern States tax en-
That the mortality of the black population was much
larger after it freed than before known even
in times of epidemic, is well-settled fact Major
flumey who was Tor time connected with the freed
mems bureau IN this State reported that among the
colored youth under his special the mortality
thrtytour per cent and that, too when fatal cpl
demic prevailed Another government officer, whose
duty it was to look after abandoned estates reported
that on two plantations in neighborng parish the
mortality had exceeded onehalf the slave population
IN less than two years after the Federal troops had
invaded this State. The majority of these deaths
we're the result of neglect and want. They were not
provided with the food to which they had been accus
toned, and, when attacked with disease they did not
receive proper care and attention In plain English
they tell victims to American philanthropy. If all
the suffering and death that have been entaed
upon the negroes of the South by the anatcism Of the
North could be summed up it would startle the civil
lSed world with anlaZement and horror.
