The cnlored men of Louisiana present a
statement, which, if true, must set at rest
a great deal of the misrepresentation as
to the shiftless habits of the freedmen.
They claim that they have kept pace with
honest labor in the other sections of the
Union; that they now pay taxes on $780,
100000 worth of property, by their labor
raise seven-eights Of the sugar crop and
tive-sevenths Of the cotton crop. Yet
these are the men whom the lazy, god
forsaken White Leaguers would deprive
of the right to vote for the candidates of
their choice, because they don't want to
be put con an equality with niggers."
The honest, Industrious colored men of
the South can see in ihe Malone move
ment the beginning of a political revolu-
tion that will result in securing for them
fair play, fair treatment and fair vote.

Mr.. Chlders, War Secretary, and other
English statesmen who have visited Ire

could, by this means, scatter the people

less than an extensive scheme of Govern

The superintendent of the New York
Emigration Commission, Mr.. II. j, Jack
son, on duty at Castle Garden, is of the
opinion that immigration to the United
States the present year would reach
nearly five hundred thousand persons to
tho port ofNew York alone, with possi-
bly, fifty thousand or more for the port of
Boston, Philadelphia and Baltimore.
This estimate is based on the arrivals for
the past three months, which for January
were S,OS2, and for February 9,753.
Judging from the nationality Of those
who have already arrived it IS estimated
that the Germans will be most largely
represented, probably 175,O00, and of
good class to, such as farmers, for the
most part with some means. The great

To His ErceHeney, W. D. BLoxHAM, G0UcrnOr of
the State Of Florida:
DEAR SIR The grand jury of this county, at
the last term of court, recommended that
should be removed from Office as Justice of the
Peace
If the jurors had been at all familiar with the
law they would have seen that sent up no cases
for their consideration that were of minor impOr-
lance. l am well aware of the cause of the sug-
gestion in the presentment concerning me; it
was conceived by some bitter enemies of mine
who had the honor of being members of the jury,
helped by some outsiders. They were either too
mean or too cowardly 10 take any other steps to
express their malice. So, before a tribunal be-
fore which Of course could not appear, they try
me as it were and recommend my removal
Therefore, while not being influenced by what
the grand jury said, but in order to relieve you
from any embarrassment and to vindicate myself
and be able to meet my traducers as private
citizen instead of an officer. hereby tender my
resignation as Justice of the Peace.
Very respectfully, yours, &C.,

TO THE PUBLIC.

l deem ii proper to state to the citizens of Leon
county why did not go on to Atlanta with
Icons exhibit succeeded in raising sufficient
funds 10 defray all expenses, but did not succeed
in collecting such an exhibit as would do Justice
to our county, and rather than make a shabby
display of the products Of county, the richest
in resources Of any in the State, determined to
make none at all. The money being donated for
q specific purpose and not used for that purpose,
l returned it to the donors
This year has been the most unfavOrabe to
crops of every kind except cotton that Leon has
experienced for many years, and the failure of
our farmers TO respond to the call for exhibits
was largely owing TO the fact that they did not
feel that their present crops would be fair sam
pie of what Leon county can produce. Colonel
John Bradford collected a quantity of native
woods; DR.. VIM. Bradford sent in samples of
cotton; Colonel Beard, Captain Houstoun and
several other gentlemen offered oats and peas I;
DIR. Bell Offered samples of tobacco and sugar
cane, all of W ich was very good as far as it went,
but to have sent such meagre exhibit would
have been burlesque on our county, and have
led many to suppose that those were all we could
grow here.

tend many thanks for their manly efforts to assist
and encourage the enterprise.
