knew what time they had gone though
during The war. They read it oves
several times, then one Of them says:
"Mr Collins, the writer of that letter is
a good man; he does not wish to harm
us; he is simply misinfomed; he don't
know that my brothers think ten times
as much Of the Northern people as they
do of the men who persuaded them to
join the rebellion; he don't know that
we girls would rather have Northern
young man for our companion; you tell
him what | say for it is the trnth."
A gentleman moved from Ohio, last
spring, and settled in this neighborhood.
A niece Of his came down to pay them
visit and see the country. About the
time sac cot through with her visit aud
was thinking Of returning, wealthy
Tennessean, one who owned large lot
of slaves aud was foremost in the rebel
lion, and who has grown daughter,
finely accomplished, and several smaller
children, offered this young Ohio lady
six hundred dollars year to stay and
make his house her home and be
companion for his daughter; he did not
want her to work but thought her ac-
complishments would be worth y
much to his daughter. Is that spirit
of ''distrustful GOODNESS" towards North
erners?
The system of free schools adopted in
this state, is quite an Improvement on
the one you have in your state. The
state furnishes half the funds, the coun-
ty the other half, to support school in
each school district ten months each
year. BY this system, the poor counties
and school districts, which, as a rule,
have three times as many children as
the rich counties and districts, have
their school bills paid by their rich
neighbors who live in the wealthy coun-
ties and districts How is that for
fostering the interests Of the poor?"
BE careful or the South will yet excel
the North in that respect.
The colored children draw their quo
Ia of funds, but the schools are separate
and the colored people prefer it that
way.
We have colored preachers, doctors,
Legislators, justices of peace, attorneys,
bankers, no tel keepers, merchants, mo
chanics, farmers, and gardeners. Ono
gardener shipped seventy dollars worth
per day, of green turf ps of his own
raising on four acres Of land, for three
weeks and four days last spring
Wife says these false impressions
about the feelings Of the people hero
towards the Northern settlers, will have
to be endured for while longer, but
that ''patience worketh wonders" as
the old maid said when she married at
the age Of sixty.

Who wouldn't want to be a
Congressman? There are so ma
NY ways and means Of feathering
ones nest, even aside from sala-
~. grabs aud back pay s%teals,
that we can scarcely wonder at
the ambition of so many aspiring
gentlemen TO serve the country
in that capacity. The latest
scandal that Washingtonehas de-
veloped is that a number of Con
gressmen r mixed up in the
paving contracts of that city. As
Congress makes the appropria
tons for the street improvements
in Washington, it is not difficult
to see how easily the rings there
get millions set apart every year
for street purposes. OF course
members of Congress will be lib
eral in their appropriations to
the little jobs in which they are
personally Interested.
