THEeCOLOHED TENANTS.

Messrs. Editors: In your issue OF
the 1st inst. one of your correspon-
dents, Mr.. Toatly, says In regard 10
keeping the colored tenants comforta-
ble-"I think tho employer should be
more feeling than to suffer his tenants
to live in such bad houses" Now,
Messrs. Editors, does our friend Mr..
Toatly want us to build palaces for
our colored tenants? If that is his
wants, am sorry to say I do not think
mis- wants will be supplied; and, more
over, we arc unable to comply with
his request. Our colored tenants in
this section Of the county are living
very comfortable as far as we are able.
1t seems that Mr.. Toatly was able TO
defray half the expenses. Wherc is
the next man that is able to do so
Mr.. Toatly is afraid of the negro race
running out. Docs the increase of
inhabitants of the colored race for
the last ten OF twenty years look
like the colored race will disappear2
What will our friend Mr.. Toatly want
next? He will want us to furnish him
with his whiskey to drink and cigars
to smoke and other things too numer-
Gus to mention. It is as much as we
can do to furnish s'cuffy" with little
bacon and meal without building him
fine houses and furnishing him all the
necessaries Of life. I am glad that our
friend Mr.. Toatly is empowered with
the money qualities and is wiling to
help and keep ''cutfy" comfortable.
But, Messrs. Editors, am sorry to
say unless we adopt milder measures
and be more economical in our neces-
saries Of life we will never, as long as
the sun continues to rise in the East
and set in the West, be able to keep
"cuffy' comfortable. We are not
able to keep ourselves comfortable,
and all that we can do is to furnish
him with a little bacon and meal, and
I think that is enough. I will leave it
to the intelligent readers Of your
paper to decide. j. Z. BLAIR.
