The Labor Reform.
r give below, extracts from thaaddr?ssof the
ciking men of Charleston, adopt?d'at a meet
g held in Military Hall on Monday evening of
is week. The meeting was called for political
'rposes, but the views entertained in regard to
bor are very just. Wc do not suppose that
meeting intended to give , much comfort to
colored laborer, as it consisted only of
ite laborers, the black man having no vote ;
. in spite of this fact, the advancement of
interests of labor is very desirable, and the
vation of any cl?ss of laborers will do much
dignify the great labor reform movement.
Tue subject of a system of practical educa
i >ti for the preparation of youth to become
:eated mechanics, we will endeavor to bring
the notice of the Legislature ? and as South
ulina College bas been highly endowed,, and
: yorted as a State institution for the prepara
':i of professional youths, so should schools
I colleges be established where architecture, j
v.-ition, and all the details bf a practical'
,j ition may be taught for preparing youth
industrial pursuits of life, and thus ele
. " :;:is class to a higher position of intel?i
. s and usefulness..

j; : 1 : Mempab; Tenn.'Sept. *&?5;
j ?ditors Clucago Tribune.
J It is the desire, I think, of every right minded
I man and, I know, of everv officer in this regi
] ment, that vou should give to tne world, through
? the columns of vour widely circulated journal
j some facts whSclf have come to our knowledge,
[m regard to the manner of treatment that the
j colored people here have received at the hands
! of their appointed guardians, the officers of the
Freedmen's Bureau at this point. - It seems that
there has been fur some time back a guard of II
! linois soldiers, men from Old Kane, from Co?k,
! taSalle, Will, Stephenson, and.even Old Aboli
tion Winnebago, and the rest of the northern dis
tricts of thc State," k'ept at the headquarters of
the Bureau, whose daty it was-no, not dutyJ^X
whose corer >t was-to go ?bo?t thc i6wn and
kidnap-I believe they use the milder term of
"pick up-"-- all likely-looking negroes I they
could find, and report them te, the pen, whence,
without a chance of leave-taking, or even of re
porting to their families- their whereabouts or
destination-they probably not knowing, the lat
ter-they are taken out to some plantation, and
there put into involuntary servitude. I am credi
bly informed by an officer of this regiment of au
instance, where one. having left his place, owing .
to the cruelty of his so-appointed master, M*as
returned to the plantation in Arkansas by a
guard, and so forced hack to slavery,
: But thc worst teat ure of tiie business is, that :
these planters pay so much per head for the cap
ture and delivery to thom of these people. Now, t
I do not know whether Gen; Tillson takes any
pay to himself; hut this is a fact that I think can :
be established beyond d??bt,-that by and With -
his knowledge the officers have been induced to
take money for this wicked work, which the sol
diers were forced to do. And here let nie say tor
the comfort of the friends at home, who would
be shocked to know that their sons, brothers, and
husbands were thus engaged, and that the Gov
ernment could find r.o other and,better use of the
men who had volunteered td defend its honor
than to be mad*-; thc hackneys of these returned
rebel planters that the soldiers are men sworn to
obey orders, and that they cannot, a?id dare not,
stop to argitfg their legality. The responsibility
of their acts, while thus obeying orders, rests
upon the commander who issues thent.
I wi 1 cite a few tacts. Our men say that they
have had to lay around hdusesNuntil late: fu the ?
night and then make a descent upon them and
seize and bear off t{ie inmates, lucy hilve also
been employed to patrol the streets and seize np
on all who had no pass and "bear them otf, nuder;
what is called-a vagrant order, and in direct vio-'
lation bf Order 129, 'regarding gasses One of
our officers was a ?tay or two since offered the
tempting bribe of one hundred dollars to kidnap
a squad. But the chivalry for once were deceived
in their man. Ile rejected their oder with the
scorn that they and it so justly merited. An
other instance worthy of remark is this, that," al
though the Government has instituted schools
for the education of colored children, even they
are not exempt, and I am informed that a young
girl hut n day or two since set upon while going I
to schcol, with hcr: books in hand, and the at-1
tempt made to carry her off. hut she tore herself
free and ran to a place of safety.
The soldier subdues, the legislator regulates,
and the educator builds. The soldier is tho
} tardy pioneer who cuts down the forests, the
legislator lays down the farm,.and the educator
makes the harvest yield its fruitage.
What this nation most needs to-day is the
extension of a well arranged system of free
schools to all irs parts. In the late rebellion the;
line of free schools ma:ked thc line of loyalty
; to the Government; We must push that line
j to the Gulf.. Fu e schools are needed not only
] as an 1 lemont in the reconstruction of the
Union, bat as a means of preserving it when re
? constructed. We tiiust perfect our school sys
: terns at the North* and the teacher and hisspel
j ling hook must be made -to. foliow the soldier
j and His mdsfcet at thVSotitn. Intelligence must!
j be recognized as the basis of republicanism.
Statesmen must come ro give the matter of nub
I lie?instruction mofo attentive consideration,
i Departments orgtuiz.'d td render efficient the
'Work pf'eduoa??m must be made to bc?upt a
more prominent position at our State capitals
and at Washington. The great duty that presses
upon the patriot and the philanthropist of this
j country to-day is the education of the whole
j people of the nation, without regard to race or
j rank or color or position. When our yourh all
j learn tb re?d' similar" booksT study "similar les
sons, sdbmi< to . similar, r?gul?tieiis in the
j schools, we shall become one.people, pos essing
ail organic nationality, and the Republic will be
safe for all time.-P. WieJicrsTiaui, Lvr ?
BEAUTIFUL SENTIMENT.-The beautiful ex
j tract below is from the pen of .Ihm. George S.
?Hillard :
I confess that increasing years bring with them
. an increasing respect for men -who do not suc
ceed in life, as those words are c?rtimcnlv used.
Heaven is said tr? be a place for those who have
not succeeded upon earth ; it is surely true that
celestial graces do not best thrive and, bloom in
the hot blaze of worldly prosperity. Ill success
sometimes ajrises from a superabundance of
qualities in themselves good-from a conscience
too sensitive, a taste too fastidious, a self-forget
fulness too romantic, a modesty too retiring. I
will not ge so far ag to say, with d living poet,
that " the world knows nothing of its greatest
men ; " but there are forms of greatness, or at
least excellence, which die and make no sign;
there are martyrs that miss the palm'but not the
: stake, heroes without thc laurel and conquerors
i without the triumph.
j The anniversary of the birth of Father Mat
tnew was celebrated by the temperance societies
of New York, brooklyn, and vicinity, which
bear his name, on Tuesday. There was a rand
procession; which was"reviewed at o?e'i mt by
the Mayor of New York j and at another by
Archbishop MeCloskey.
A gentleman one evening was seated near ?
j .lovely woman, when the company around were
! proposing conundrums to each other. Tuminfr
to Iiis companion, he said :
" Why is a lady unlike a mirror ? "
Slie gave it up.
" Because," said the rude fellow, ua mirror re
flects without speaking ; a lady speaks without
reflecting:."
" yCTy good," said she. "Now answer me.
Why is a man unlike a mirror 7 "
h I cannot tell you." 1
" Because the mirror is polished, and the man j
i? not."
The September reports to the Freedmen's Bu
reau show a continually decreasing, number of
those receiving rations frond the Government.
There are more than^4,000 freedmen in the dis
trict comprising Washington, Alexandria, etc.,
'ont of which number only 864 sick and desti
tute were fed at Government expense. Many of
these, are wives and^hildren of colored soldiers
"killed or disabled in,tue service of the country.
In the department of Tennessee and Kentucky
there were 979:persons subsisted by the Bureau,
September 20. At present there are none. As
the incapacity of the colored race , to take care
of itself is perfectly well known, we presume
theare all flea'd'*-*Tribune *il
