Some towns ^ ri Illinois have eiven them marching t rdere, and .t look3 like they have no 1 riends but the southern people. We j sed to wonder why they all did not ( cave here and go up to their deliverers * nd bask cn their bounty, but only a 1 ew were fools enough and now they rould come back if they could. We re geting sorry for the negro. He has 0 abiding place. Thoy are tenants at ] rill of the landlords. When Russia j ave freedom to her serfs a few acres \ nd a cottage were alloted to every ] amily, and this could not be taken ! way not even for debt. The poor, 1 hiftless laborer has a hard time ! verywhere. A friend writes me from i {uemadas. Cuba, that the wealthy ! i paiards, who live in Spain own all I i ho land in Cuba. and it is exempt, ' rom all tax, but the laboicrs who rent I ! 1 have to pay tax on everything, their J hanties. their horses and carts and : tock of all kinds and plantation tools, j ' < nd on what produce is left after pay-! 3g rent, and when they buy anything , < ith Spanish money they arc charged j 3 3 cents in the dollar, and when thc-y . j ell they have to take 63 cents. They ] rc generally no account, but can live ; ( iirly well on the bountiful products ] j f a fertile soil and the fruits that { bound everywhere. My friend says ' t . is a most delightful climate. He has j wife and five children and never a ! ; ay s sickness. In a drive around his { la'-e you will see $S50.(?00 worth of t incapples growing, and he is now . j lantiug 20,000 more plants, and they ! iake good cops from five to ten years | ithout replanting and aie worth from ? to 3 cents apiece. It costs $30 per i e to prepare the land and $3i? more 1 1 i buy the plants. The sweetest and ' ; est oranges you ever saw grow all ( ver the lulls and sell fcr $2 a thous- ! n l. Then there is grape fruit and ! uus and lemons and mangos, guavas. | ' lar.tins. figs and grapes. Now. I was ruminating why our nerves didn't go to Cuba, where they ,'orJd not have to work half :he time ad where they could mix and miscegeate with the natives and have social I quality to their heart's content. The j T.bans are all col "s now from nearly j rhlte to nearly biack. end they will oix with any race. On? day I saw a urious looking sncciiaen in the negro or. and the conductor didn't know rhether to move hi:r. cr art, and so he sked him:' "Are you a white man or a i ogro." and he replied: "My fader was ' Pcrtugoe and my mud or was a nag- 1 r." The conductor smiled and let him i toy. Go into a cigar factory in Tampa ( nd you will see a fair assortment of lubans?four hundred in one long oom. and of all shades, sizes and com- i dexions. They have no national or { ! ace color. I should think Cuba would j uit most of our negroe3 very well, or they could live on fruit and honey, dy friend says he has framed hive6 10 eet square and robs the hives every uhpr <tav in the dry season, and it is j i profitable business. But I doa't see any good reason for ! Iriving negroes from one town or ] ountyto another. It is not playing fair ' vitn the other towns. Chief Ball re- , orts that he is driving them out of Atanta. It dees not seem to concern him rhere they go so ihey leave Atlanta. Vhy not take up the vagabonds and mnirh them under the vagrant law , tnd nut them to work; why not call >ack the whipping post? It will cure j he negro of small crimes and idleness ; ptlcker than anything in the world. iVhen thej* get Into the chaingang they ;et a whipping?post or no post?and i good whipping before hand would 1 voep many a one from going there. !. But the most remarkable treatise on | ;he negro and his race traits has just jeen written and spoken of by Profesnt tvi^fnncin university. )UI uunu, ui ?. Such a deliverance from a northern source is amazing. He lias been down lore nnd gcre from town to town and , studied the neg oes' actual condition, : ?nd declares ho is on the down-grade j in morality, in be :1th and physical condition, and the race will become ex- ! inct if some great change is not made in their education and some radical t-ontro] placed over their morals. They i irave almost ceased to marry, but take i up and cohabit at pleasure and change when they feci like it. He says that aut of one hundred families he visited it Durham. NT. C.. only twenty-nine of ! the women had husbands, and the j ihildren' are almost universally supi>tr tho mothers, while the fath- | [J\Jl ICU 1JJ VMV ? ?rs spend their time in Idleness or have "took up" with some other woman. He writes like he had been to Cartersville. for in sight of my house [8 a woman with three sets of children -six in all?by three fathers, but she has no husband and has never been married. She works hard for those :hildren and stands well in the church. Ber sister has four children and no husband, for he has abandoned her. The colored barber who shaved me for Fears had three wives with children, and ran away with another one and went to Bessemer and there swapped her off. There are no doubt a hundred bastard negro children within our town limits, and as Professor Dowd says, the marriage illation is now almost unknown among the negroes. This degradation of the negro has come along so gradually and insidiously that our people have gotten used to it and no attention is paid to it by courts or graud juries. We hire these very na ?ro won ion for domestic servants anr many cf them are good ones. Theii children go to the public schools ant !n time the boys get big enough tc steal and the girls to fellow theii mothers' examples. When will at his folly stop But just now there seems to be a cessation of political hostilities about the legro and the race problem.
