The Niger and the IzcnrOOSi.

A friend who accompanied mo
had heard of II bargain in real estate
on the hill top above Jackson City.
and we went up to look ut it. There
were six acres of fine land. and II
two and half story house, habilablo
but modest, for $1,000 cash. For
$4,000 more an entire fort, well pre-
served, could bo purchased adioin-
ing the property. Around tLc
house some luSty silver poplars ani
naples grew. a good well, a gar
den. and an unsurpassed view Of tho
capital city were among tho advai-
tagcs.. Part of the land, freshly
p!owed, showed rich and black ut
The base Of tho fort 1t certainly
was 4 cheap property on Arlington
Heights, aud only mile from
Washington.
We asked the tenant if tho ne
grocs of the ncighboring villag,
troubled him.
"rhc sight of EN- troubles INC.
said this Last Family. "Dogon ON;
| do hate Il free Niger! As to steal
ing, if that's what you mean, they
steal nothing but the chckings."
"Then they do take poultry?'
ats my belief" said the solitary
tenant, chat thcrc'lI have 10 bo
chickens in future state for tho
niger. Heaven will be no heaven
to him without hcncoops. Pears
to me the chickings know him
They never caclilc when II miSgcr
comes They roost low on his
night. It's Il nigh to his pint. gem
tlc'men, that in the State Of Virgin
in nobody but niggcr can afford to
eat choking in five years. Tho
animal will be his specially and mo-
nopoly. Clicking will be TO Il fam
lily what pork is to II Jew
"But why do the negroes confino
their depreciation to poullry?"
"Thc nigger aint got enterprise
to steal anything bigger" he said ;
"hcd no more steal COW than hc'd
steal the Capitol yondcr. He's
fond of slows. The CHECKING just
fits into his gipsey pot. The grease
of it lies his jints. He loves it be-
cause he stole it, He eats it out of
pure affection. He cooks it at night
timc and biles it with the feathers
on. He hopes the feathers will
evaporate with the billing; but if
they don't he goes the whole fowl,
quills and all. Gentlemen, if there's
any sincere happiness in this world,
it's a Niger eating a billed chicken
on the sly!'

Yellow fever is raging at Havana,
Vera Cruz, and other ports, and n
sporadic case or two has appeared
in New Orleans. The rumor pub.
lished from Galveston that it was at
1ndianola proves to be unfoundcd.
There has not been case yet this
year in Texas, and we hope will not
be, but it is raging violently at
places with which commerce con-
meets us and it may visit us.
Our country friends may rest az
sured that we shall promptly givo
notice of the appearance of the first
case here or at Galveston.

A telegram from Washington Of

of apprehension here, becoming in
tensifed. The impression is that
we are approaching a more serious
crisis than the rebellion. The
Oldest and gravest men speak ont
their fears, and a distinguished ex-

now in politics, declared to-day
that in less than twelve months
members Of Congress would be
hung in their respective chambers.

Why do not the radical papers Of
the North raise the howl over tho
radical use of torture to force false
evidence out of the regrocs in
Georgia? They are altogether
silent on the subject; yet, if a white
rebel look severely at freedman,
they arc clamorous TO have him
tried by military commission.

lg- Our neighbor of the Advocat

1@- Our neighbor Of the Advocate
demurs at our remarks concerning the
employment Of Penitentiary convict
labor outside the prison walls for in
dividual or city purposes. He enters
a plea Of justification for such work
on various scores, as for instance,
economy to the city, the Indebtedness
of the Penitentiary aud lis inability
to liquidate that Indebtedness to par.
ties in any other way than by con-
vict labor, and the absence Of compe.
tition by outside or private labor.
Granted ; but this does not do away
with the injustice Of the principle
which permits Of convict labor out
side the Penitentiary walls being EN-
ployed on any work tending to con-
hict with, or to drive beyond the pale
of competition private parties in our
midst, who might, with fair field al
forded them, be enabled to bid for and
undertake such work.
A plea the most valid and unobjec-
tionable that can be urged in extenu.
alton of the improperly Of employing
convict labor for private or city pur-
poses, is that which we advanced in
a previous article and which our
courteous neighbor has also alluded
to,-namely: the want Of means on
the part Of the prison authorities, with
which to defray the expenses Of keep
ing up the institution, and which has
forced them to the only alternative,
much against their will and DISPOSE
ton, to allow the convicts to perform
anv sort of work save that which
comes within the strictly legitimate
rules of the directory and the purview
of all laws and ordinances relating to
the subject.
