Lamar's Eulogy

The Ealogy upon Hon. Charles
Sumner delivered by Mssissipri't
democratic Representative, Hon. La,
@. Lamar, has been very generally,
highly commended by the Republican
Press throughout the North. As an
example Of magnanimity, IN q repre-
sentative Of the genuine Soutberner
thus lauding the praises of one who
did 80 much towards bringing her
present woes upon the south, it is
worthy of imitation by our conquer
ors, and as, we are told, bis appeal for
his Section moved to tears" some oi
his honorable audience, who had "dis
trusted us as traitors we are not
without hope that some good might
have been effected. However, the
"magnaniri!y" part of it is on the
other side, according to the Boston
Globe, which has a good deal Of
praise to bestow on Mr.. Lamar. and
he must feel peculiarly gratifed at
the Globes Significant solution of
the mystery" OF the address, and we
suppose the Southern press which APP
provingly republish the article fully,
concur. In the Globes article is the
following sentence:
at is, after all, onl, in real re-
public that the rebel comes to his own
again, and has a chance to appreciate
the magnanimity of his conquerors
and the comparison between The leni-
ency of our Government towards the
Southern leaders, and that which in
France deluged the plains of Satory
" ith the bic cd of the Communists, is
the significant solution of tte mystery
of the Mississippi Representatives
address,"
OH how thankful we should be
that we live in such a good "real
republic"
From the Cincinnati, Commercial.
"The speech of the day, however,
the one which evidently made the
deepest impression and elected the
highest praises, was the delivered by
Mr.. Lamar. 1t was feelingly touch
ing tribute to the great virtues and
noble qualities OF Mr.. Sumner, at the
haLds of q man who left Congress in
1861 to 20 in the Confederate service
a man who has been regarded as one
of the most dangerous Of the 6re-eat-
ing class of secessionists. Interwo-
ven with the high encomiumns that he
passed upon the great apostle OF
human liberty and equality, the one
who was always bold and fearless in
denouncing the system for which the
Confederates fou gut. Mr.. Lamar
wrought a manly, moving appeal for
a more compile te restoration Of good
feeling and mutral confidence be-
tween the North and the South.
He spoke simply aud with bat little
use of the arts of the crater, with his
voice well modulated and toned down
to suit the gravity Of the occasion.
He had the full House and packed
galleries spell-bouad till the conclu
sion of his remarks when a spontane.
Gus burst of applause broke out all
over the floor, coming mp heartily
and warm from the republican side.
There wero many who, in the bitter,
dess and heat of partisan strife, had
grown apparently callous and insen-
sible to good professions from those
whom they have fought and distrust'
ed as traitors, who were moved to
tears by the simple, manly appeal to
their better nature. The speech will
live, and will have a marked and
effect in the future.

The Negroes and the Flood.

From all sides comes tidings of tht
deleterious effects on field laborers o
the overflow and the distribution o
rations gratuitously to them. On the
Lafourche the negroes living on inun
dated lands refuse work offered, anG
remain in their cabins all day, ventur
ing out only when the food giver
them has been consumed and theil
visit to the agents Of the Distributing
Committee is rendered necessary
Tlanters living on land above water
testify to the fact that the bountiful
charity of the people of the country
has so demoralized labor that it is
only with extreme difficulty that a
sufficient number of hands can be OBJ
tanned to cultivate their plantations,
Notwithstanding the fact that thou
sands are idle.
From Tensas parish we learn that
the negroes even 60 so far as to make
wariike demonstrations against the
agents of our committee, and threaten
vengeance if their wants are not i'm
mediately supplied. All this is no
fault of the gentlemen here who have
charge of these charities. Their in
structions are rigid and clear. They
direct their sgcnts not to furnish ra-
tions to any who refuse work, or who
do not seek to obtain subsistence out
side the agency, and they have by
every possible means endeavored to
prevent any misappropriation of the
provisions and money donated. In
some parishes the white sufferers are
crowded out and the lazy field hand
paddles home over the waste Of wa
ters in his canoe, laden with sugar.
cured hams, -four, and other luxuries,
to him hitherto unknown.
We fear very much that our State
will feel the sad effects of all this.
The negro, always satisfied with
whatever relieves present necessities,
will, after receiving his support dur
ing the inundation without working
for it, surely resort to any expedisnt
10 the future rather than labor. The
food has been terrible, but we fear its
effects will be worse.
