A HAPPY RADIANCE.
ATLANTA JoIIpnal

The army and the country are to be
congratulated on the mastering out of
the Third North Carolina regiment.
A tougher and more turbulent set of
negroes were probably never gotten to-
gether before. Wherever this regimen
went it caused trouble.
While stationed in Macon several Of its
members were killed, either by their own
comrades in drunken brawls or by citi
zens in self-defense.
Last night the mustered-out regiment
passed through Atlanta on its way home
and during its brief stay here exhibited
the same ruffianism and brutality that
characterized it while in the service. But
for the promptness and pluck of several
Atlanta policemen. these negro ex-soi
diers would have done serious mischief al
the depot. Those who undertook to make
trouble were very promptly dubbed into
submission, and one fellow more OBJ
streperous than the rest, was lodged in
the station house.
With the exception of two or three reg
iments the negro volunteers in the re

Glass PostmHSterS to Lobby.
Some attention is being devoted by Off
Gals of the Post Office Department to CT
forts that are being made to secure better
compensation for the 10000 fourth-class
rostmasters throughout the country. This
is being done through an organization
called the National League of Fourth-class
Pcstmasters of the United States, one of
the circulars of which was recently re-
ceived at the department. Efforts in this
direction have heretofore been made, but
have been discountenanced by the officials
here. Last winter one postmaster was re-
moved for sending out requests for contri-
buttons to assist in securing favorable leg
islation. Postmaster General Smith. when
asked if the removal was equivalent to a
decision on the part of the department that
the fourth-clasS postmasters had no right
to organize in the hope of lettering their
condition, said:
mo That would be too broad an in
ference. There are organizations of postal
employes-the letter carriers and the clerks,
as l now recall, being among them. There
is no law to prevent such organizations
and there is no Interference with them as
long as they act within legitimate bounds
We give these organizations close at
tention, however, to see that the interests
of the public and of the government are
not injured:

postmasters organized without negiectiug
