THE freedmen do not seenf to be SO worth
less class after all as some of our exchanges
would have us believe. The Mobile Register
says that the Freedmen's Savings Bank IN
that city has $3.50 depositors and that the de-
posts last year amounted to Sill, 20.
The increase in the number of deposits has
been very great. Meantime there has been
aconstant and marked decrease in the Poor
Rates of the city. The Secretary Of the Bank
says that the tendency of the colored laboring
class is toward the obtaining of comfortable
homesteads, and that, to his own knowledge,
during the last four years, upward of $780,
600 have been invested by that class in the
purchase of homes.
THE statements of the survivors of the Po-
Iaris,plainly indicate that there was a feud be-
tween the officers, but the further assunfp-
ton that they. were selected and abandoned
purposely by Capt. Buddington will not bear
the test an examination. 1t would, in the
first place require far more than ordinary
skill to select all of the adhercnts of Capt.
Tyson and get them together on the ice with
the provisions; and in the second place, it
seems hardly possible that commander
would give up all his boats, particularly with
leaky ship in perilous position. Aside
from this, Captain Buddington has the repu-
tation of being man of well known charac-
ter ane is assumed by those who know him
to be incapable of such an atrocious act. A
Washington special says that it is said at the
Navy department that Tyson was of no use
whatever to the expedition, and only the be-
nevolence of Secretary Robson allowed him
to go, SO that the trouble between Budding
ton and Tyson is not doubted. 1t is also as
serted by naval officers that Capt. Hall was
wholly unfit to command such an expedition,
and did not know how to enforce discipline
