Read This, Colorcd Mon.

correspondent of the Macon Journal and
Messenger gives the, suboincd account Of Il
speech delivered by colorcd man, at Dem
ocratic barbecue, liz Pulaski County, few
days ago:
Next followed a colorcd man by the name
OF Sherman, who gave, in a conversational
style, most interesting history Of his trip to
and his stay i'll Liberia. He was not at all
complimentary to the agents of the Cog0niza-
ton Society, on account Of the mcasrc supply
of provisions .on the voyage. He says they
were compelled to subsi for days on rations
consisting of a single cracker and u pint of
water; but when they reached their destination
on account of tho many deaths occurring in
their party, their rations were increased to
three crackers per day. Hc said he was told
5y the Colonization Society that, when he
reached Liberia, he would find species of
fruit Known as the bread fruit, growing in
great abundance ON the trecs-all oil which he
found to be true, but neither he nor any of
his party could cat it. He says the natives
live on snakes, frogs, lizards, or any sort of
animals they can capture and slay, but they
prefer animals that have died, aud are in
putrid state.
He said he determined TO leave au suun rs
he could provide himself with money to bay
his passage to New York, which he soon
obtained, and took ship for Now York, where
he felt confident Of meeting many friends
After arriving in the city, he made application
to some men OH the wharf for work, was told
they did not employ negroes, and driven away;
he made several other applications on the
wharf, meeting in every instance unkind re-
pulses. He then made application at two car
pcntcr shops, from which he hardly escaped
with his scalp. lie returned to the wharf in
despair, when he fortunately found gentle
nan from Savannah, and after having to work
for his food until lie could get situation, he
proposed to work for him in the same way he
gave him his food, and Afterwards paid the full
price of his labor, which enabled him to reach
Savannah, whero he met with Southern friends,
who furnished him means to reach his old
home, where he hopes to live and die, for he
says the black man has no friends only in the
South. He advised the black man to be peace
able and industrious, and be governed by the
advice of the people in this country. That
slavery at the South, in its worst form, is
better for the black man than freedom at the
North
