THE BEST PLAN FOB RELIEVING THE
SoUTH.-If the Northern people, in
stead of raising money to be distri-
buted gratnitously in the South,
would raise fund OF several millions
OF dollars to be loaned to Southern
men who are willing to start manu-
featuring enterprises, or who need
funds to carry on their farms and
cultivate the land, it woull result in
great deal more benefit to the peo-
pie generally. What is now waatcd
IN the South is capital-capital winch
will secure labor for the poorer
classes and enable them to make a
living by industry. Donations con-
fer only temporary benefit, and are
soon exhausted. A speedy settle
alcnt os national difficulties, and a
few millions of dollars properly in
vested, is what is necessary to make
the South prosper and flourish.

The INDIANS. -IAe New York 1ri-
.5'@e, erratic as it is, very truthfully
remarks that the great blunder of our
theorists and law makers is in treat
ing all Indians alike. To treat the
civilized Indians like the savages is
an outrage and !. shame. The former
need no War Department" more
than white men. Neither do they
need agents. Whenever they are
civilized enough to manage their own
affairs, they can do Infinitely it better
than any agent can.

DEATH OF THE IMMORTAL j. \. -
Many of our readers will regret to
learn that the great philosopher,
statesman, satirist and orator, J. n.
Free, is no more. Here was q terrible
example of the force of q strange
hallncination in reducing power to
weakness, greatness to humility,
grandeur to decay. This hallucina-
ton pursued him to the grave, and
like an inveterate, but powerless
demon, now sits and howls upon its
brink. .-Lau(le1'otie Times.

The Freedmnn's Relations to the
Church..


A Northern cotemporary calls at
tention to the fact that the religious
press is having some controversy
over the proper position of the freed
man to the church The New York
Observer, in old times, 1--WE have
not seen it since the war; was a
highly conservative organ Of the
Presbyterian Church, but it has
fallen in with the radical f,u-o7e, for
it insists on the Southern churches
admitting negroes to the position of
Presbyterian clergymen the same as
white men. The Christian Observer,
of Richmond, has a very sensible
article in reply to the cant of its
Northern namesal<e, i'll which it says
it 'sdoes not think there is Il negro
on this continent who comes up to
the standard of clergyman, such as
has been approved Of by the church
for more than two hundred years"
1t further assures the Observer that
the Southern people are not yet pre-
pared to change their ecclesiastical
rules to please Il set OF theorists who
know nothing Of the negro character,
and then makes remark that is
literally true, and cannot be gain
sayed by the members of the churches
Of the North. 1t says:
The Southern church, laboYins
quietly and unobtrusively in her glo-
rious work, has accomplished more,
vastly more, IN the instruction, ele-
vation and christianization of the
millions of heathens proyidentially
committed to our guidance, than all
the foreign missionary societies of
this land, with their monster cele-
brations, and their mighty flourish,
and their magnificent displays OF
numbers and money
Some time since we noticed that
the worship Of the negroes in Missis-
slppi, according to the statements OF
the Rev. MI. Marshall, Of that State,
was fast relapsing into barbaric rites.
How much true religion would suffer
by making pastors and teachers, in
discriminatory, of even the most in,
telligent of the race, we cannot tell,
but the experience Of year or tive
does not leave it doubtful as to any
beneficial results from their teach
ings.

construction plan recently announced
as having been agreed upon by the
Southern Governors, and approved
by the President, has been submit
ted to several Southern Legislatures.
1t Is telegraphed from Raleigh, how
ever, that the North Carolina Legis-
lature has debated it for the last
three days without arriving at a salts
factory conclusion. The majority of
the members seem to think that it is
a mere rehash Of the Constitutional
amendment, and oppose it for that
reason. A vote may be taken this

WHO owns IT?-A ,'REDEL' OwSEE
WANTED. correspondent at Shel-
byville, kentucky, writes us concern
ing q work of art he saw on exhibit
ton ut Wheatland, Clinton County,
Iowa, last October, which was dis
played as belonging to q person who
served as Federal officer during the
late war, but which had evidently
been stolen from some Southern
home.
1t was not q painting or engraving,
but an exquisite piece of needle
work, representing Washington, the
'Father of his country" standing
beside his horse, the reins loosely
thrown over one arm. Our CORES
pondent describes it rs a most life
like and perfect piece of work, the
product Of skillful and patient fin
gers, and SO faithfully and beautifully
executed that child at all acquaint-
ed with the popular representations
Of Washington, could not fail to re-
cognize it. The writer judges. and
not without reason, that it was some
body's household treasure, perhaps
one day dearly priced in Southern
home, before the Northern thief cap
tured or confscated it. If any cili-
zen of the South has been robbed of
such picture, (and we hope our
Southern exchanges will make men
ton of these facts, we hope they
will lose no time in applying to either
NJ. L. Rogers, or Edwin Carter, both
gentlemen, and residents of Wheat
land, Iowa, for further information
as to the present whereabouts of the
stolen picture.

ROBBERY OF A BONDED WAREHOUSE

ROBBERY OF a BONDED WAREHOUSE
IN New YORK. Dates of tho 10Th
instant from New York state that.
some time between Saturday night
and Monday morning, q party of
burglars forced an entrance into the
United States bonded warehouse of
Conger & Miller, at the corner of
Water and Clinton streets, from the
rear. The thieves passed through
the cooperage yard OF Mr.. Briggs, on
South street, and climbing over Il
quantity of hogsheads and barrels
piled up beside a fence, gained the
rear of the bonded warehouse, and
were effectually secluded from obsery-
alton. They first forced open one Of
the area doors, but inside Of this
were piled up Il number of hogsheads
of sugar, and these the rasca!s could
not move. They then forced open
another door, at a short distance from
the first mentioned, and entered.
Several cases containing dress goods,
cloths, linens, &c, were ripped open;
bnt the thieves finally settled upon
three cases containing silks and satins,
the property OF y. L. Stewart & Co.,
and the contents OF these were entire
ly removed, and placed in fifteen or
twenty rice bags, the contents of
which they had emptied upon the
floor. Having arrayed themselves in
some new underclotlling which they
found in the place, and drank a guam
tity of wine aud liquor, the thieves
took their departure with their plum
der They also took with them u
quantity of jewelry, the property of
a brother-in-law of NJ. Miller, who
is now absent in Europe, and who
had left his furniture and some other
articles on storage IN the place At

FoR FREEDMEN. S.-The negro Brad
ley, who has been stirring up strife
among his brethren on the islands
below Savannah, is thus referred to
by the Boston correspondent Of the
Springfield RepubIcun, under date of
the 31st ultimo:
"Aaron Bradley, the colored law
yer, from Boston, who has been stir
ring up mischief among the negroes
down near Savannah, is well known
here. He was dismissed from the
bar several years ago for NAL prac-
tice, which consisted in forgery or
some such peccadillo, but under the
veil Of time, and the tenderness of
the new bureau for the colored man.
he tried a year or so ago to get rein
stated, and this time was put on ex-
animation before two promin ent
lawyers as to his requirements. The
result was ridiculous exhibition of
ignorance and charlantry, which
made an amusing chapter in the local
law literature, but was fatal to his
professional ambition in this latitude.
And so he naturally took his cheap
wares and his gross impndence to
another market. His stirring up of
strife among his more Ignorant and
more honest brethren in the South is
quite in keeping with his previous
character here. Bradley knows just
enough to be a mischief maker, and
1t would be q useful service doub tless
to the negroes and to good morals, to
subject him to q trife of old fashion
ed plantation discipline"

1t is stated that the well-known
house of H. B. Clafflin & Co., New
York, is in q financial difficulty. Last
year this firm returned to the Asses
sor Of Internal Revenue an income
of 100000, but is now brought to
4 stand with liabilities of $4,000, 900.
The difficulty is to be attributed to
the fact that the market is over
stocked, while the demand for goods
is very light, and to sales last fall on
credit.
