grant another heinog. I he Judges of the Su

lawyer of Lawrence countv, who made a sort of political speech to the Court, in which he de
canted upon the "political status" of Orange county, and the dangers to which ''loyal men"

Those persons who have never been ia the South, and who bav formed tbeir ideas ot the Southern slaves from the industrious and comparatively intelligent negroes and mulattoes whom we see arouud u in the Northern cities, have no adequate conception of the real character of the negroes at the Sjuth. Accostamed, all their lives, to implicit obedience; accustomed to a regular and unvarying routine of labor; accustomed to rely upon their masters for instruc Olon and direction, lor food, for clothing, for medicine when sick, and lor the support ot their aged and inSrm parents, they are literally bewildered at the new positions in which they find themselves. In a few exceptional cases, the ce groea on some plantations have been sensible enough to remain, and to mio engagements with their former owners to continue their labors on tbe old places; and in all such cases the former masters have employed their negroes in preference to seeking other help, and are paving them fair wages. EITRA VAGAXT 1DIAS CF THE SLAVIS. But these are very rare exception?. As a general fact, it may be stated that the whole system of labor, in all the Southern Slates, has been broken up. Tbe relations between capital aud labor, between employers and employes, has been violently and suddenly dissevered. The negroes in every State east of the Mississippi, and in Louisiana also, to a great extent, intoxicated with their newly-acquired freedom (ot the nature, extent, and consequence of which they have not the most remote idea) have lets, their homes and the ecenes of their former labors, and
with their women and children have trudged off
scores and tn some instances hundreds of miles, to the nearest city or large town. The orders that have been issued fotbiddiog the congrega
ting of negroes in the large towns, have not
abated the evil in the least. The orders never reached the mo?t of those for whom it was in tended, and even it they had, they would not
have been comprehended. The negro's idea of
Ireedoui is two-fold; first, treedom from work;
second. free4om to come and go where he will; and added to thi.' they have a vaue idea that
ihd!e who freed them will also teed and clothe
them. TIIEIE GENERAL UXWILUXQN'ESS TO WOXE.
It is found in vaia to convince them of the
necessity that tbey mu-t continue to lbor iu
order to live Wbcn the idea is finally beat iuto
their heads they receive it grucnblingly, acd

tore; or as uicy express it, " as muca a Mga
as betöre; nicg with them being synonymous with slave. Tbey have come to the Urge cities and towts as they would come to the
promised land, expecting all their wants to be
supplied, and to be supported in luxurious idle news. These expectations, of course, were entirely groundless and unwarranted. No pro
vision bas been made for their support, and tbe
consequence is, that every week thousands of
those poor creatures are literally dying of starvation. FIELDS AND PLANTATIONS LYI.N IDLt.
The operations of the Fieedmen's Bureau, though carried on with the most indefatigable
zeal, and with untiring industry, are utterly in
adequate to reach and avert this evil, which, in
stead of decreasing, is growing greater every d y
Nor is it lens painful to contemplate the sad effect of this state of things upon the former masters themselves, and upon the plantations. The
planters, left destitute ot help, are compelled to see thair fields lying idle and uncultivated, and
to witness their crops rotting in the ground, for want of proper cultivation. Tbey have done
what they could with their own hands, and by
the most praiseworthy industry will succeed ia
saisiog a scanty subsistence for their own families. iJut the heart of the true philanthropist
would ache, iu traveling through the South, to see tbe tens of thousands of acres of fertile land lying idle and uncultivated, while tho?e poor peo
ple who ought to be there at work, are starving to death. The means ot comforuble subsistence
for them are there, but they have been enticed
away from them. TUE FLANTER ENGAGING WHITE LABORERS
Failing to amke engagements with their negroes, and de?puriug eveu ot their ultimate re turn, many of the planters have engaged white men to work for them, and to tak tbe place of their negroes. No one can blame them for this ; and yet a storm of execration will be raited about their beads for doing so. My informants have related to me numerous instances where poor white men, living near Urge plantations, have been engaged by the planters by the year, to work for them, and are now actively engaged. The?e poor men were not soldiers in the rebel army; but as the Confederate soldiers return to their former homes, they too will no dourt be engaged iu like manner. Five or six white meu, on a plantation, can do the work formerly done by twenty or thirty negroes; and us there are comparatively few plantations io the South on which moretnan twenty able bodies slaves were employed, it may be that the planters, in the end, will find this kind of labor the most profitable to them; for, besides supporting tbe negro, the master was compelled aIo to support the negro's wife and his three or four chilren hia whole family, io f-tet to provide them with a home and tbe means of living to take care of them when sick. at:d to support them when aged and ii.örra, and II this tor the labor of one man. It will be rnu.-h rhespu for the planters to employ white ltbor. ot which, indeed, tbey cn caidy procure an abundatce. And if thi. should be the result ol the abolition of slavery if. in depriving the maters of their slave.; the Abolitionists have also deprived the slaves of their homes and their means of subsist ence, will tbey be well satUSed with their "war for the Legro?" THE SOUTHERN HELD OFEN TO WHITE LABORERS From all that I can learn of the actual condition of tffiirs at the South, snch is very likely to be tb ultimate re?ult of the abolition of slavery. The people ot the South, like all other
people, are gjverne: by cü-iuterest. Negro labor has been pro:ab!e to them only because they could compel the negro to work, and thus, in spite of the burdeni entailed upon them by the support of the negro's family, they contrived to mtke the negro' labor prohtable. But tbe liberated slave, applying now to his old master for employment, will be met by the competition ot the white laborer. It is iu vain to ridicule this idea. It must and will be so. Tbe Southern field is opcu to the white and black laborer alike. Tens of thousands of white laborers, Yankees, Germans, Swede and Norwegians and Irishmen will, in a year or two. swirm all over the South, seeking that employment which they fail to fiud in tbe orer-croded North. AJ thus, ia a year or two, the poor negroes will find themselves crowded from the scenes of their former employment. THE rLANri.ES CONSIDERING THE SUBJECT. These are my views, but they are not mine alone. They are the views that already begin to occupy tbe minds of the Southern people. As I remarked above, theirsystem of labor bas been entirely changed. Tbe question which they have to consider, and which, as I learn they are considering very earnestly, is. whether it will be most expedient and must profitable for them to enter into new relation with tbe negroes, or to employ white laborers in their stead. Very few public meetings on the sutject have been held, although I have before me the proceedings of two ia Virginia, and four in other Slates. Bat the subject is being earnestly discussed iu private, amjpg the planters; and the universal seut.meot. pmicul.rlj in the more Northern lati tules, is strongly m f4T0r 0f discarding neero labor altogether; not immediately cr suddenly, butbr a gradual proces The plan which his received the mol favor is. ia brief, to employ those of the negroes who are willing to wurk, tayio tcera lair wages, and to employ, also, two white men whenever they offer of the right kind, to every four negroes; and then, to observe
cirtfolly the'r rtlttiv Tale as laborers; tad If, as it is supposed, tbe whit laborers turn out to be the moat profitable, gradually iocrease the white laborers, and diminish the cumber ot ne rroe employed. In this wit th Southern States will eyentuallf become free States indeed, bet in a way not at all contemplated by the a bo lilionist agitators of lSbO. WOAT WILL BECOME Of TOE NEGRO. Whit will become of the negro race then? This, indeed, is a seriouj question, and ons which Cbarle Sumnerand his followers bad done well to consider six years ago. If they had been content to let the negro alore, the Utter would have been secure in the comforts of home forever By their sudden abolition ot slavery .they have paved th way to the certain extermination of the black race in America, ao eeat which may possibly be accelerated by a nejro icsur rection or a servile wr. At all events, tbe two races, both free, cannot live together. The negro can never become a citizen at the South Wendell Phillips perceives this fact clearly, and it is this that readers him so ho.tile to President Johnson's policj. The nero can never compete with the white race, either in the intellectual or ia tbe agricultural field ot labor. Wbereever the two races have come in competition, the negro has gone down, and so it will be in this ini'tnce. Uod bas so ordained it, and man cannot alter the decrees of God. WHAT THE SCTTn DAS DONE FOR TOT. AFRICAN RACE. Why is it, that aa century after century has rolled away the negro in Africa has not made any advances in civilization, as tbe nation of A?ia, and Europe, and America have done? There are forty-three millions of pure negroes in Africa, not counting tbe Egyptians and Nubians, and the inhabitants of tbe countries bordering on the Mediterranean. Wby have they built, no cities cr railroads, invented no machinery, written no books? The negro of to-day in Africa is the negro of six thousand years ago. lie bas not advanced one etep io civilization during all that time. He is still a ferocious cannibal, niacin? baked in the woods, PS J selling his captives for slaves. The curse of God is upon the race. The only amelioration they have ever received has been at the bands of the much abused Southern people In the Southern States they have been humanized, civiüzeJ, and christian ized A " loyal " paper sueered at the Catho lies the other day because the Catholic missions in Africa bad not succeeded in christianizing the natives. Hut what denomination has succeed in Africa ? It is in the Southern States, and by the Southern people alone, that the negroes have been made christians and brought to the knowledge of the true God O.i every large plantation the negroes bad their church and their minister.
