peL The N. o. Bulletin has been en-.
larged and much improved by introducing
larger type. 1t is now the same size it
was before the war, a fact that speaks
we'll for its influence with the people,
Increasing the size of newspapers is an
unusual thing in the dull season Of the
year, but we are forced to believe the
change with our valued contemporary

IDLE P~EoPLE.-"It is computed that no
less than 10000 men, boys, women, and
girls are out Of work in Chicago" says
the N. o. Bulletin, and then wonders
why they do not GO West and help bar
vest the immense crops which are being
lost for want Of labor to gather them
Good reasoning. Let US take it a little
nearer home. There are thousands of
idle, lazy negroes, men and women. con.
gregated 10 tue towns and cities of this
State, who live from hand 80 mouth, as it
is called, whom no ~inducement can get
upon plantations where their labor is
wanted aud for which they would be
reasonably paid. Mark the difference !
1n the North thousands are out of en-.
ployment and desire labor by which they
eau live. They are whites. In the South
there are thousands unemployed who
desire no labor SO long as they eau keep
body and soul together without. it, even
II it be done by prostitution on one hand
or stealing on the other. These are the
nations wards" Today, we venture to
Gay. that from ten to twenty thousand
a6'e bodied men and women could find
steady employment in the sugar raising
portion OF the State alone, without con.
s'dering the demands in other parishes
on cotton plantations. But the negro is
fast playing out. He is disappearing
from natural causes az we'll AZ y repug.
nance to manual labor. When he is no
longer . producer hs is worthless 10 the
community 10 which be lives. and the
quicker be leaves the better for himself
