The Funeral of Ex.President Blu
chanan-His last Moments.

LANCASTER, Pa, June 3.-The runeral
of ex-President Buchanan was very i'm
posing. There were many delegations from
abroad. The Masonic fraternity assisted
throughout, and their funeral ceremonies
accompanied the religious rites.
On Saturday, previous to his death, while
giving directions to his executor regarding
his funeral, Mr.. Buchanan said: "The
principles of the Christian religion were
instilled- into my mind in my youth, and
from all have observed and experienced
in the long life Providence has vouchsafed
me, | have only become more strength
ened in my conviction of the divine char
acter of the Saviour, and the power OF
atonement through his redeeming grace and
mercy"
Responding to the expressed hope that
he might live to see the country fully re-
stored, Mr.. Buchanan, said: 81 have no
fear of the future. Posterity will do me
full justice. have always felt, and still
feel, that 1 discharged every public duty
imposed upon me conscientiously. | have
no regret for any public act Of my life, and
history will vindicate my memory from
every unjust aspersion.'
His last words were, ooh. God Almighty
as thou wilt"

LO the Poor Negro !

From the Charleston Is. c. Correspon-
dence of the Hartford Times.] .
While on this topic I will allude to
one fact which illustrates the destruct.
i've effect of freedom on the life of the
negro. In slavery :heir increase on
any well conducted plantation was 3 to
s per cent Children were carefully ta-
ken care of, and so were the mothers.
They had good medical attention and
nursing, and visit to any of their pla-
ces would bring you among a parcel of
boys and girls, fat, healthy, playful and
happy. How great the change! Who
really cares for the poor child of an
African? Separated from his true
friends-his old Massa and NIlssus-
the parents have no one to whom they
can go for help; no one takes an inter
est in them; no physician visits them !;
their newborn children sicken and die,
and even their older ones grow feeble
and sink beneath the numberess evils
OF such childhood. Few plantations
now have children upon them. Where
are they? A clergyman on ncighbor-
ing island told me a few days since that
the negro children were rapidly dying.
Said he: "On ourplace q yearago there
were u children; now all are dead."-
A family near his house had last spring
six little ones: now all are in their
graves. .... ....

Beast Butler.

Major-Gcneral Beast Bottled Butler,
hero of New Orleans, innocent women
and silver spoons, and a disgrace to
Gods creation, arrived at Richmond,
Va, the 18th inst, and was greeted by
q large concourse of niggers, both
white and black, and escorted to the
hotel. He addressed crowd at the
African church, advocating equal po-
litical rights for blacks, equal powers
in the Government, and equal burden
in supporting it. The land should bear
its part OF taxation and the burden
should not be thrown on the laboring
men. He said the time for confisca,
ton, whether right or wrong, had gone
by, and he did not think his audience
now expected it,
He advised Southern men never to
divide their lands. as il must come at
last that the men who worked the land
would eventually be the owners Of the
land; he did not believe that a war OF
races would occur; if it did, it would
not come from the blacks. He argued
against the folly of Southern people re-
naming out of the Union hoping for
better terms. These they could not
get, for whatever other changes might
take place, the Senate would not change
for six years, and before two years ex-
pired, admission of States to rights in
the Union would be accomplished on
the present terms.

''SOuthern Apathy"
rom tho Naty Ynrl Eynrocs


A great many people hereabouts talk
about the "apathy" Of the Southern
whites Let such persons read the fol.
lowing from the Democrat, of Rapides
Parish, Louisiana.
'1n Rapides they rejected four hun.
dred and fifty whites who had a right
to Register under the military bill, and
permitted as many negroes under twen-
ty-one years Of age to register and then
vote.' Such infamy, such fraud, such
barefaced rascality, was never before
'heard of in any country"
This shows pretty well of what the
black vote consists, and to what the
apparent "apathy'' of the whites, in not
coming up to their own rescue, is to be
attributed. .lS 81
