THE
Forlorn Cnbius in Virginia—Views of One Who Is "to ttc Manner Born"—Woolly Ben Interviewed—From Low Heathendom to
fSpocial Correspondence.]
PETERSBURG, Va,., Sept. 2.—"It's all over and done with now. and I am gla.1 of it, but why can't they tell the truth about it? I have lived north and I have lived south, and I occasionally find a northern man who knows the state of the case, but I have never yet found a northern history that got within 1,000 degrees of the real facts about the negroes In Virginia in the old timo and the way they stood to the

est liars on earth: bur. of course. I know now it was nothing but ignorance—pure ignorance. They ought to know better by this time, though, and I am of the old orthodox not ion that a man is responsible for ignorance of the tnull if he is so fixed that he could get at it by due diligence. I have practiced law long enough to know that the meanest kind o? liars arc the liars that tell the truth nine times out of ten and slip in a lie about .something that's material to lie issue, and the very worst Vritnesses a lawyer can run against are those who swear to what isn't so and believe what they are swearing to when they ought to know better and might have known better if they had tried to. JJow, those unkee writers were right -enough in i-. nig that slavery was no good, but they missed it 1,000 degrees in toiling tl ie reason."
Progress .Among: the Negroes.
.... The gentleman who began with this long text is so modest alxmt. appearing in print that I can only call him by his well earned title, the major. He was taking lue out in Dinwiddie county to see a native Guinea man. who, as the last one in this part of Virginia, is something of a curiosity. I could not: forlH'-a" spfaking as WO rode along about tho generally forlorn appearance of ho negro cabins. -Not one in 20 has a carpet, mirror or any other article indicating refinement most of them are so open to the weather that it seems impossible human beii:.' crmkl winter in them, and. as has often been said, the pigs run in at one door and the chickens out at the other, ami the little darkies roll in he dirt indise:-i:nR:ate'.y with hogs and dog.--. The stable and the pigsty, when there is One, are so mar the cabin, and there is so little care about cleaning up either, that the odors mingle with those which are supposed to distinguish the race and those which will arise anywhere from dirt and ncglcct, and on the whole one is almost compelled to wiy that the stable odors are an actual relief when mixed with the oth- S ers. E\en in pa -.i:ig along the road one can nearly alwavs distinguish the cabin of the nu{.io I:- na tnat oi the very poorest whito persson, aiid the evidences are painfully plenty that the general' domestic life 1 corresponds tae material surroundings. I gave my opinion that there couldn't liave been any progress since the war because it was impossible that these people should ever hav-. been in a worse fix than now, but the major vehemently declared,
as nearly all southerners do, that there has been very great progress among the negroes in all sections v.'licro whites are in a large majority, and that it is only in those pans of south side Virginia, as they call that pail, .south ol the James, where tlio negroes are in a large majority, that thoy have remained stationary or retrograded. Continuing on the general subject, he said: "Your northern agitators started on a false basis. They talked as if it were a question whether wo should have the nogrocs as slaves or not. It was foolish. If that had been the question, Virginia herself would have said no. and as a matter of fact she only lacked a vote or two once of doing away with it in the legislature. But that was settled a century before I was born. The question we had was, Here tliey are, ami can wo get along with them free? We were afraid we couldn't, and plenty of folks think it isn't settled yet. We are not going to light, of course—that danger is done away with—but it is just as likely as not i•::r the negroes will finally have leave n-gima when the whites get numerous oiiom-h to do all the work. In fact, they two leaving many sections now."
A V:».u- of Slavery,
"The census indicates a sort of falling off everywhere." "CoiiMS* bo Tho last census isn't •worth the paper is printed on, so far as thocoloied population is concerned. It is tall cussed nonsense to say the colored people increased over .Jo per cent in IS TO to 18S0 and only 1.1 per cent from lbSO to 18U0. Tho bayou region away down south

Now, as to cruelty—why, look at the common sense of it. If v. had been cruel to our people, they would have hated ns. But with very rare exeptions they not only liked u,e v. hi m.istei's and mistresses, but were very proud if they belonged to a good fa enh'. My father's neproud that they wouldn't with negroes belonging to poorer li you want to know how ignothose Yankee writers were just reu-d I their account ot what they call the Nat.

about for a day or two murdering all the white families where the men were absent, and that's all there was of it. As soon as they met armed white men they fled to the swamps. But here is old Ben, and I want you to hear his story."
Wo fonrd the old Guinea man hard at work in his vruck patch in the center of a forest of second growth pine where he lives, and I wes impressed with his fino npranrawc. His immense shock of hair, vra: whito as uooi, but he appeared singularly erect and vigorous and handled a hoe as well as any 20-year-ol i. He was at first extremely reserved, but when he had taken a grown person's dose of snake antidote, which we happened to have with us, and had lighted a very strong cigar which the major brought for him, he went off in fine style, at first by jerks, as it were, but afterward with a regular flow of speech. And queer speech it was.

Ben says that in all his bad dreams he has never seen any creature, so frightful as that first white man appeared to him. He shrieked with fear and rolled on the ground in Ills agony, and some of the captives dashed madly into the bayou between the island and the main shore, fearing the crocodiles and gavials much less than this hideous white creature. As near as I could make out from Ben's language they thought theves- I sei was a water devil and the white man was one of its imps which it carried inter-

As we drove back the major drew many philosophical conclusions from the fact that the negroes had nearly all been
brought from the lowest state of heathen- of the office of representative in conism to a fai fc-tate of civilization by the southern pooj..,-, but the world is familiar with their arguments. For my own part, however, I. am more than willing to say that the white people of the south must have been bv nature tho kindest and most humane and honorable people iu the world, seeing that it was impossible for so bad a thing as slavery to entirely spoil them. In every other part of the world the negroes in slavery have decreased in numbers or retrograded in sense and morals. In our south, and there alone, have they progressed more rapidly than any white race starting in barbarism ever did, and in 2yi centuries have multiplied faster than any race since Israel in Egypt. Less than 500,000 negroes were brought into the United States they are now more than a, 000,000. The conclusion is self evident—si ,very in our south assumed the luildest form ever known in Die world.

How a Conductor Missed It. One of the conductors of the Walnut Hills cahlo line would have been a richer ii' not, a wiser man il' he had not been too quid to jump at conclusions the other night. A gentleman, accompanied by a lady, in paying his fare handed the conductor hill. The change was handed to the passenger, who remarked that there was a mistake in the amount. The conductor became vr.-y indignant., and said, "I gave you the right ehango."
Very well," said tho passenger, "if you say so, I am satisfied." The gentleman and lady rode for some distance, arid, as they alighted from the car. the man said to the conductor: "I tried to tell you that you had given me f0 cents too much, but you would not lot me, and I am much obliged to you for paying me to ride with you."
With that they walked away, leaving the smart conductor in no very pleasant frame of mind. Cincinnati Commercial Gazette.

A DELUGE IN KANSAS
Twelve Inches of Rainfall in a Short Time.
of his loss is heavy. About 3 o'clock Sunday a storm of wind and rain burst on the town from the northwest. The wind was what was known as a straight blow and its mischief was mainly confined to the unroofing of buildings. A downpour of rain immediately followed and amounted to a deluge, 12 inches of water falling in an incredibly short time. The lain completed the destruction that had not been accomplished by the wind, and in a few minutes every stock of goods in town had been soaked and the household possessions of most of the inhabitants were in the same condition.
