Justice Slow in Coming.

There is now pending in the House
Of Representative of the United States
little bill appropriating couple of
thousand dollars or so ''for the relief
Of the Methodist Episcopal Church
(colored, corner of Fifth avenue and
East Second street, Rome, Ga" The
claim has a curious history
1t seems that in 1864 there was a
church at the place mentioned which
had been built entirely at their own
cost by the colored people of the town,
free and slave. With the lot it had
cost them $500. When the Union
army entered Rome on the ''march TO
the sea- the church, which occupied
the highest point in the town, was
demolished, and Notifications were
erected on the site. For the property
thus destroyed no compensation was
then made, or has since been made.
ABOUT 1867 an attempt was made
through the freedman's bureau to Sc
cure relief for the congregation, but
none of the funds of the bureau were
available for such purposes. Now,
nearly forty years after the property
was taken, Congress is asked to pass
the necessary appropriation, and the
committee on war claims unanimously
recommends the action.
1t is remarkable that property of
this amount should have been in the
possession of colored people and a
church supported b. them in a South
ern city so late in the progress of the
civil war. 1t is. not creditable to the
United States government that no COM
pensation has even been made for the
destruction of the property, especially
as ii must be remembered that the
owners were, according to the classi-
tication of that day. not only loyal to
the government. but probably about
the only loyal residents of the town.
