supplying all openings for labor. Without
foresight and accustomed to be taken care Of,
they speedily exhausted their little means, and
filled the towns with misery, want, and disease.
Great numbers who had followed the armies
were collected in camps, with little shelter or
food, and no employment. Three hundred and
forty thousand adult negroes, according to tho
official reports of the times, were refugees from
their homes. The condition Of those who re-
NAMED with their old masters was better, but
they suffered from the revengoful passions Of
the whites, who wero enragcd at once
at the failure of their cause and
the loss of thoir human property.
Disappointed and reckless men vented
their spleen in outrages oil these helpless
victims; and throughout tho South. with
pleasant but inffdqdsnt exceptions, the negro

Hitherto we have had Only the Rebel stories
about the troubles at Augusta. Arkansas. Now
at last comes the other side of The story. That
the Ku-Klux outiages there had been numerous
all know; and that efforts to check them aud
arrest the guilty parties would be the first
work of the negro militia, might very readily
be supposed. Just this, according to the Reppb-
lican statement now at hand, is the grain of
truth in the mountainous stories of excesscs by
the militia, which were compelling peaceful
citizens to flee to other States for safety. The
peaceful citizens were KuKlux, aud they fed
from arrest. That is all.

Congress having gone home for the Holidays

We believe it is not questioned that they ara

We are very glad to hear from New-Orleans
that the Lieutenant Governor does not cherish
such apprehensiOns of trouble from the Thugs,
on the reasscmbling of the Louisiana Lcgisa-
ture. as have been attributed to him in some
of our late dispatches. Riot and murder have
been such common means Of political manage
ment iu that quarter that We saw nothing
strange in reports that their recurrence was
apprchended. But, slow as the former ruling
class at the South has been at learning any

Orleans, printed elsewhere, as a sign Of their

Some wiseacre proposes that the Common

streets are always Objectionable, for reasons
which will be appreciated at once 10y all whd
are fond of historical and antiquarian readlngi
but this particular change seems to combine
every imaginable objection. We have three
Broadways already and a fourth would lead
TO great confusion "New- broadway" is also
unmeaning and illogical, for the street Is not
new. 1t is not pretty. 1t Is not convenient
The name of Chatham ought to be held IN

of Congress from South Carolina for seven or
eight years Immediately preceding the war. and
was one Of that body of fierce Scccssionists who
secuted the idea of waiting for the cooperation
of other States, and insisted that South Carolina
should go out alone Withal he has been held
