THE COLORED EXODUS.

The movement of General CONWAY in
behalf of transportation for the colOrcd emf
grants who desire and are not permitted to
leave the Mississippi Valley for the North
and West seems to have awakened the plant
ers to n sense of the danger that impends
over their interests. Those of Washington
County, Miss, have issued q memorial TO
the people of the North, which gives assur-
ances that they are willing to make fair
concessions to the colored people to induce
them to abandon their purpose OF leaving
the country. They argue that their con-
tracts with colOred labor are uniform
throughout that section of the country, and
that no cOmpulsiOns are used in making
terms with the negroes. They omit, how
ever, to make any allusiOn to the high rents
charged for the lands titled, though they do
discaim any responsibility for the high
prices charged to negroes by the merchants
who sell on time. This system of credit,
which prevails all through the South, is one
of the great evils which have led to dissut-
islaction and to emigration, but it is prac.
ticed by all classes. The custom IS almost
universal with landlord and tenant to
mortgage their crops year ahead to
merchants and nOte-shayers, at high rates
Of interest and at the same time paying ex-
cccdngly high prices for their purchases of
goods and supplies. This practice hangs
like q blight upon all hope of permanent
success and prosperity, Under this prac-
tice no doubt unnecessary hardships have
been afflicted upon the colored people by
the overbearing and unwise policy of the
controlling whites under 4 system and rela-
ton which makes all prospect Of social and
material improvement out Of the question.
The colored people are denied their poiti-
cal rights; they are deprived Of educa-
tional advantages to aid in their advance
ment; they are forced to deal with the mer-
chants Or staryc and 90 naked, and for what
they purchase they are compelled to pay
| cxorbitant prices for all the necessaries of
life, Under such a regime oppression and
! injustice have become the ruling spirit of
that section, and the colored people who
begin 10 feel that they have some rights
aud are entitled TO fair respect have very
naturally become dissatisfied, dsheartened,
and determined to strike for an improved
condition through the means of emigration,
This reveals The real secret Of the exodus,
and now that the movement is started it
will be difficult TO stay It's progress if means
are afforded to accomplish their fixed pur-
pose. This the planters seem to understand

when il Is too late 10 avert the calamity
which has befallen Chat section. There is a
lesson in this which the people of the South
can study with profit. They have brought
most of the ills under which they suffer
upon themselves by a lack Of manly Fair
ness in their political and business relations
and interest. If the rights of citizenship,
which came to the freedman among the re-
suits OF the war, had been treated with re-
spect and justice, the relations between
planter and laborer, and between the two
sections of the country, would have become
fraternal and instead of feeling
of animosity, good-lellowship would
exist now between all the American
people. When armed organizations were
instituted to despoil the colored man of his
rights of citizenship, and even his life, un-
less he would submit peaceably TO the be-
hcsts of party with which he could have
no sympathy or alliliation in principle, the
people who had made these men citizens
very naturally became incensed. This was
the first great mistake of the South, which
inevitably aroused sectional animosities and
alterations, and has led TO much bad blood,
for which the South is alone responsible.
The planters now promise a reform in
their treatment Of the colored people. In
this is their only hope. They cannot prose-
cute their enterprises without them, and
the time has come when they cannot have
the benefit of their service for any certain
time unless they respect their rights and
treat them as citizens in all save their social
relations. The question is now in shape
where in time it will bring its own cor
rectiyes

DEMOCRATS IN THE DEPARTMENTS.

The Democrats in Congress have been
teaching the Republicans lesson on the
bestowal of patronage which it will he well
for the Executive Departments of the Gov
ernment to study. The enemy returns with
much avidity, as they obtain power, to the
old-time Democratic doctrine, "To the vic
" tors belong the spoils," and Republicans,
be they wounded soldiers or not are made
to walk the plank with little ceremony.
While this is going on at the other end of
the Avenue ii is asserted that several DEM
ocrats, and among them rebels, have been
recently appointed to lucrative positions in
the Departments, where no vacancies could
be found for Republicans or Union soldiers.
We are led to believe that this statement is
entitled to credit; but five are misinformed
we should be glad to be corrected. Some
names have been furnished us.
We take this occasion to call the atten-
tion OF the heads of the several Departments
to the simple fact that this being Rcpub-
lican administration, placed in power by
Republican votes aud sustained in power
against the revOlutionists of to-day by Re-
publican good faith, it cannot be strength
ened in public confidence and respect by
taking to itself political enemies and unre-
| constructed traitors, who fill places which
properly belong to political friends, who
helped TO place the present Administration
in power. For the present we withhold
names; but if those who have no right to
| eat the bread of a Government which they
openly despise and contemu cannot be de-
tccted aud removed otherwise, we may feel
called upon to point them out by name,
with brief reference TO their political an
tecedents. 1t is about time that justice
should be done to both the enemies and
friends of this Government, so far as that is
practicable.
