RALEIGH, N. c., SATURDAY,

MIR. WAsHBGRN, of Indiana. Will
the gentleman allow me to ask him
question
Mr.. LOGAN. Certainly.
Mr.. WAsHBURN, of Indiana. would
ask the gentleman if he is in favor of
allowing to starve the twenty.four thou
sand two hundred and thirty-eight
colored people, who General Howard
says will starve to death unless they
are assisted some way?
Mr.. LOGAN. 1 am not in favor of
allowing anybody to starve ifI can help
1t. l do not want any man, or any
woman, or any child to starve. But [
will say to the gentleman this: that it
has not been brought to my knowledge
that they are starving more than are
other people; nor has it been yet brought
to my knowledge that these people are
in condition that they could not relieve
themselves by proper industry and ex-
ertion on their part. Nor has it been
brought to my knowledge that the
wealthy people in these States are not
able to put their hands into their own
pockets and give this charity for the
purpose Of saving the lives of fthese peo-
PIC, .JtFsu So " Gil OilC WCdlUlN pSopiO
of the North can do. In my own State,
when we have destitute people, we put
our hands in our pockets and provide
for them we do not ask Congress to
do it. When the gentleman says that
this is for the benefit of colored persons,
that statement is not correct, The
present appropriation, if confined to the
classes who come under the Freedman's
Bureau, is sufficient. Gen. Howard
tells us in his report that sufficient ap-
preparation has already been made to
be expended under his direction to sup
ply the class embraced, and if that be
true, it is his duty to provide for these
twenty or thirty odd thousand starving
colored people at the South; and he
says that he has money enough to do
this, 81, 100000 having been appropria-
ted for the purpose. Where is the pro-
priety of appropriating another million
when General Howard says that he has
abundant means, if it he confined to his
Department?
lam told by gentleman from Massa-
chusetts Mr.. Baldwin that General
Howard stated to him this morning
that this appropriation, while it might
be useful, had not been asked by him;
but that he had reported it as he was
directed to do. Now, l am opposed to
this House being directed by anybody
to do anything in reference to any of
the people Of this country that is not
appropriate to be done. Sir, in this
tree land there should be no paupers of
this kind, and the millions of dollars of
property given up to rebels by assent
of this Government was charity i'm
properly bestowed, and we should be
sure of what we do in this instance.
There is no State, either loyal or dis
loyal, that is not able by light tax on
themselves to support their own poor !;
and so long as this is the case for one
am not willing to bow our people down
with such burdens, when reason and
justice are against it, although such
appeals as can be made in favor of suf-
fering, many times upon supposed
state of facts that does not exist. Sir,
this is all Ldesire to say.
