NORE BULLDOZING IN MISSISSIPPI.

nOHE BCLLDDIING IN
In the clerks office of Hancock county,
Miss, there has just been recorded "A deed
for a valuable lot near Bay st. Louis, from
the Hon. j. +. ii. Claiborne to Henderson
Winfield, II ~wcll-known colored citizen, the
consideration, as recited in the deed, be-
ing " for the respect | entertain for said
Winfield, my high appreciation OF his in
tegrity and industry, and the good exam
pie lie Is giving to the community"
This is the latest instance of Mississippi
atrocity, and the "blody shirt " organs
and orators should make a note of it.
They should add likewise, as still more
atrociOus, that the same old-fashioned
Mississippi democrat has bulldozed a dozen
or more colored families of Hancock coun-
ty into homesteads at his own expense.
The above we copy from the New
Orleans Times of the Oath. The
facts stated in relation to the kind
ness of Col. Claiborne to his old
colored followers, have long been
known to us. A well known color
ed man at the Bay, the old foreman
of his cotton-gin, told us that his
boss had given him eighty acres of
valuable land at Toulme station ;
had paid for the lumber to build
his house at the Bay, and had
bought and presented to him horse
and carriage to earn his living with.
Near Mr.. Moran's, on Grand Plain
bayou, there is quite a settlement
of colored families, from Natchez,
to whom Col. Claiborne gave excel
lent tracts of land. On his home
place, on Cadets bayou, there is a
very large colored family from
N3tcheZ, who have been in the
Of his wife for three genera
tionS. To these, he has given Il
good home-aS much open land aS
they can cultivate, and the use OF
his pasture, teams and stock. AT

young man and his wife daughter

These are the latest samples OF
