The NEGROES.

The elections of TUESDAY showed the negro
in a more independent light than he has
been wont to appear in. But he is still anna.
ging!y devoted TO the fortunes OF those who
Ue the enemies of the whites, from whom he
}eceires kindness, employment, home, and
bis very subsistence. His conduct was not
very surprising at FIRST. He was just GU. of
slavery, ss much from southern resistance as
from Federal policy, abolition having been
merely O. war measure. But at the end Of
plunderers took him under their charge, and
fired him with malice against the southern
whites, while these were silenced by military
authority, and for time, as 1t were, kept
within prison bounds.
AS time passed we had right to expect
tina: the negroes would become more tracta-
Die towards those who employed them, aud
upon whose energies and practical wisdom
th:y absolutely depended for subsistence.
The whites had all the property. they con.
Quoted all the business, aud directed the
whole economy of social life. One would
think it impossible for the negro to fail 10
amoioe kind feelings, and even gratitude, to.
wards those who thus benefited him aud
sustained the very framework of society
towards those who educated his children
and gave him the means of support.
This reasonable expectation has not beer
fulfilled except to a very parti.l extent

THE INDIAN TERRITORY.
All Civilized INDIANS Under One Agen.
ey-PFepsring Mr.. LO for Self
Government.

PARSONS, KANSAS, June 26.-ImpOr-
tant changes have taken place in Indian
Territory. All the agents of the civil
lied Indians have been relieved except
ing ]. B. Jones, agent of the CherOkees,
and central agency has been establish
ed at Fort Gibson. The Choctaws,
Creeks, ,SeminOles, Cherokees and Chick
asaws, and other civilized Indians will
all be under Agent Jones. This is re-
garded as an experiment on small scale
to familiarize the Indians with self-gOV-
eminent, under the future Territorial
organization. A number of prominent
Indians will take strong grounds in fa-
vor of sectionizing tlieir country, Terri
tOrial government and citizenship in the
United States. The OaklahOma Star,
published at Caddo, ChOctaw Nation,
openly and ably advocates this doctrine.
The committee Of congress appointed to
investigate and report Territorial gov
eminent for the Indian country, will
find the sentiment of the country great
ly changed in favor of Colonel Boudi-
nOt's advanced position of the subject of
A government for the civilization Of the
Indian race and their rights as pros
pective American citizens.
After his indictment, he disap-
peared, but was apprehended last even

HAZEL FLAT.
A GSOd Country, Fat Soil, and Abund-

From an Occasional Correspondent

From an Occasional Correspondent.
HAZEL FLAT, Tenn, June 26.-
Eighteen miles on the Paducah and
Memphis railroad to Upton station, and
thence four miles across beautiful un-
dulating country, brings us to this place,
situated on the headwaters of Crooked
creek, a tributary to the famous Big
creek, which drains one of the best
farming countries in the State, or south.
Rich, deep, loamy, and fertile lands,
producing extremely well when proper
ly cultivated, all the various products of
the country, and particularly grapes and
clover. A gentleman from Messrs.
Craig & Co.'s, adjusting and starting a
reaper for Mr.. J. H. Sink, of this place,
informed him that he had never seen in
Ohio, even in the great Mama valley,
better crop than his forty acres of
clover and herd grass. Mr.. Sink raises
no cotton, but devotes his whole time
and farm to grass, corn, wheat, and
other cereals, and finds ready market
at remunerative prices, at home, for all
he makes-a practical example to ali
who are impoverishing themselves by
raising cotton alone. He lives better,
clears more money with less labor, and
is more Independent than sny farmer
who makes cotton, to the neglect of
other crops. | feel a native pride in
stating that this district-the first in
Shelby-is prospering as well, or better,
than any contiguous 10 Memphis. Set
tied generally by small farmers, who
plant fewer acres and cultivate better
mixed crops of corn, cotton, wheat, ETC.,
with more attention paid to their fenc-
ing and improvements generally, one is
reminded forcibly of dnte.beLiIm
times. Crops are looking splen-
did; with suitable seasons for a month
longer an abundant yield will be Sc
cured. We were pleased to see so large
an amount of yvho0t already harvested,
which is said to be of superior quality,
as well as a fine turnout. Thus many
thousands of dollars will he retained in
the country which has heretofore been
sent north for -four. The four churches
-Richland, New Salem, Gratitude, and
Mudville-are in a fiouTislung eOndi-
ton, and with the exception of two base
and cowardly assassinatiOns among the
negroes, caused by the green-eyed
monster" morality is above the aver
age. The grangers have frequent visits
Just now of "sassafras dodgers" t" who are
willing to sacrifice all for county, and
especially to advance the interests Of the
Hnoble order Of grangers." All are quiet
on civil rights. One old practical cOlOred
individual said he "didn't see much in
de civil rights bill no how, 'eept twas
de 'provisions,' and if dar was anything
in dat, he would like to hab barrel of
-four bout now" Sensible! Lands are
valuable. Small farms with moderate
improvements are worth from thirty to
dollars per acre.
