A crowded city is not the frol place to judge of the merits or de- from merits of the colored people; the pourte gatherings there as they now exist harm< cannot possibly be a fair criterion to harmy go by. No true conclusion can po ry is sibly be arrived at, besides the city Thi observer is bound to do injustice to by M the black man, judging of him by which the heterogenous masses that have i nmpol e drifted to the big cities, South, vallel North and West. gress While there are to-day large num- say. n hers of ingenious and competent col- broni ored people following mechanical and other useful pursuits, the natural tendency of the masses is towards Wi i agriculture and rural life. In such ocrac - a state of being they feel most at sions 1e home; it has decended to them as a Seve sort of heritage from the days of the t;,is , past, and has become to them as it ces 5s we ere, their natural cdling and ele- t1101on 11 ment; and indeed only in this cle- w mh ent can their characters be fairly mrisf' and justly estimated, and anything the (1 like an intelligent judgment formed ued;, w with regard to their future develop- seutn n- ment and the relation they will bear Zeal n- towards the white people they may shom come in contact with in their busi- ever ness pursuits in the years to come. A - Now to arrive at this we must to a tetrn In ii ay great extent be guided by what has in gr ©n already transpired in this connection well go and what the black people have thus itat V asp far done for themselves in our own and immediate neighborhood in the very tend in teeth of many difficulties and much re-e ale poisonous advice injected into their and 'en inexperienced minds. the he The history of the carpet-bag cru sade in this section with its attend ant political persua:lings, and the shi' ia- devilish work that was then done to bcc, an- embitter the black man just out of icot the bondage against the white residents, thu 'in is familiar to the minds of all the nn- older citizens.

Much time has the past, and the finding out process is C of developing with increasing rapidity 'n 432 year after year. In other words, the an urs, race question is settling itself; the vii own problem is being solved by the black man showing what he is capable pt of and he is taking a proper place in e Sthe the soci'l economy. sent Here in the parish of East Carroll hi and we have over one hundred and twen- as ar- five-free holders, some of them own able as many as four hundred acres of any land : most of them have well culti- D vated farms, with comfortable homes, N out houses, stock and all the neces t thesary utensils to make the farming Sto successful and abundantly prosper out ous. They have their churches rhed which they regularly attend: but the : education of their childreh seems to end- e the most engrossing care withS them.
