OPFICBi TIIK itll'H LUNHHINR BWILDINO. tml the Railroad croselng. PUBLISHED DAILY AND WKKK1.Y BY JARED IRWIN WHITAKER, 1* po p rlotor. ATLANTA, GEORGIA. Sunday Morning, April 7, 1807. From Die Milwaukee Dally Wisconsin Mr. Itlre'a Feurlh Ldler. Wo present below the fourth ol the series ol the loiters addressed by Mr. Mice to tlio Milwau kee /MiVy HVitenniti/i, to which we have reftorrod in former Issues or this journal. We shall make reference to the views embraced In tho following, ou the present condition ol the poor and igno rant whiles ol our Slate, and the negroes, in another column The negro is doing well under all the discour agements he has to contend with, as well, in all probability, as would whiles, lie is at present very ignorant, very la/.y, intemnerato. decoplivo good imluied, nllordmg any amount of room for the practice of spare benevolence for generations tn come. Tho Influence of slavery upon him has lett him in an entirely dependent state, and in a deplorable condition, to encounter the rough and tumble of free lite. A thousand stand ready to impose upon his igaorauce and credulity, and none sooner than the shrewd Yankee who goes R oulh to make money in planting. So little has io seen and been trained to tho ways ol the ” vorld, though be he three score and ten, he is till nothing but an overgrown child, mentally. Wbat lie needs to learn first is the value of money, which lie has no more idea of than of the alpliabet. Oftentimes he is entirely indifler- ■nt to the amount of his wages, and when get- ing them entirely ignorant how make any pru dent use ol them. As an Illustration, one ol them receiving his wages for a month went straight with his wife to the first store in their way to dispose ol them, "■’nor and ragged as they were, after buying in- uunerable tilings, including some tobacco, some andy, some ribbons, a waterfall, and a few HHinds ol corn meal, paying for each article parately, the negro thrusts bis finger deep into lis vest pocket, and fishing up the last piece of is Iractional currency, the last remnant o( his aid month's work, he says: “ Mister, have you "l anything else worth about fifty cents? ’’ Alluding to waterfalls reminds me of a pecu- iar characteristic ol the African race. The nc- :io women are extremely fond of dress, and are Iwavs first to don new styles, and indulge in the xtretue ot fashions. It is not uncommon on the iabbath to see them on the streets by scores, oing to church, in the lowest kind of low-necked ud the shortest kind of short-sleeved dresses; nd, as their dresses are usually white, the lines f demarkation are quite unmistakable, present- ug a very picturesque appearance. A negro roman will work in the cotton field bareheaded 11 tho week, in the hottest kind ol a sun, and pmc into town on Sundays and only go to burch in white gloves and under a silk parasol. When the waterfall first came into vogue, it was a regular stunner to the negress. For a long lime they gazed with longing eyas upon it, but here was nothing to attach It to. Like old mi le Ned, they hud no wool on the back of the head, where the hair ought to grow, to which to attack waterfalls. But a few days passed, how- ver, before nil the negro womeu, to the very loscst haired, wore on the street, sporting the 1 irgest kind of waterfalls. They exhausted the air and held them on by suction. The negro since his freedom, puts on many airs, and it Is amusing to see him in full dress, • line, gloves and liat, but his appearance iB not more ridiculous than Ins high ideas of freedom, and the dignity lie assumes In his new position. Quite an ordinary negro, freed by Sherman, lound his way North, straying as far as New Ha ven, remaining there until a lew months since, when he returned to Atlanta. His old master, much surprised at seeiug him back again, says: “ Why, Tom, I thought you went North." “ I did, massa," I found the sentiment there so ’nox ious to tlie Southern gemmen—all ab'litionisls up there—f couldn’t stand it, Massa, and re turned. The negro, however, is very plastic and kind, and will make improvement with plenty instruc tion. The experiment of giving him the ballot in his present uneducated condition I fear is little understood by the North. His vote will be a cheap commodity for a long time, and whoever is his employer will, in nine cases out of ten, control it cither honestly or otherwise. The poor whites of the South always voted with the slaveholder, although their present condition is directly trnced to the influences of slavery, de grading white labor. I do not believe in the wisdom of it; not that iie should vote any the less on account o! tho misfortune of his color.— i )n the contrary my sympathies for the weak and poor are such f would always give them, if any difference the advantage over Hie more fortunate, Ini 1 amalraid the government cannot stand the additional burden of ignorance to be swayed hither and thither by designing men and politi cal demagogues. Von know that politics is prostituted to the basest purpose North, so that very feiv good men will dirty their hands with it. Politicians are no more honorahlo at the South. All of tho igno rant whites, nud all of the freedmen, which will number the majority of Southern States under universal suffrage, will be at the mercy of the few professional politicians, and the result will be the government of the whole South will be as ob jectionable to the interests of the better classes, is was the government of this city for years. “ERROR CEASES TO BE DANGEROUS WHEN REASON IS LEFT FREE TO COMBAT IT."—Jefferson.

And still these poor ignorant whites are capa ble of improvement. About five hundred of these are being educated gratuitously at Atlanta, by Northern female teachers of first-class attain ments, and the appearance of their schools is very creditable. Among these are sustained two very flourish ing Mission, Sablmth and Industrial schools, the scholars having been almost entirely, clothed, and many of their parents for that matter, by their superintendents and teachers. Mission schools uro a new institution lor Southerners, but they are slowly following in tho track of the North in that great means ot educating and christianizing the poor, and before a long timo 1 expect to see all the poor of the South, of both colors, gathering Into such schools and being taught by tho Christian people of the South. 1 intended to speak of the mineral resources of Georgia, which I consider, when properly de veloped, will fully equal its agricultural, but I will delay it till I return to Atlanta, and send you a letter from there containing accounts ol the very latest developments.

"Darleton,” the well-known correspondent of the Boston Journal, sends to that paper the fol lowing aceonut ol a visit to the British House of Commons: “My position is on the right-hand side of the door. In front of me are tho Bishop of Oxford and Prince Christian. The Bishop is a heavy man—perhaps fifty years of age—with dark hair, smooth face, a pleasant countenance, and wears a broad brimmed lmt turned up behind and down in front. Prince Christian, like myself, is a ‘stranger,’ although husband ot Princess Helena. He is from Schleswig—tall, well formed, almost bald nt the brows, his hair, soil and thin, smooth ly laid, his face unshaven, his light-lined whis kers hanging upon his breast. His face is bronzed is if from exposure; bis eye dark blue. He lias l lie air of one who has seen various phases of life, and not always the best side. He is a Cap tain ot Lancers in the Prussian army, and is thirty-six years old. “At my right hand, on the same bench, is the editor of the Times, Mr. Delaine, a plump Eng lishman, with a complacent countenance, whis- keis tinged with gray. “LordCmnbmirne, tall, bald-headed, but car rying enormous whiskers, stands beside Prince Christian, with folded arms, 'gazing upon the gladiatorial arena. "The Prince of Wales comes in and stands in tlie aisle at my left hand. I le is taller and much stouter thau when he was in America.

When you front of him in the aisle, upon one of the steps, sits Mr. Robert Lowe, member from Caine. He, also, is ot medium stature. His hair is white, and so silvery that it fairly gleams in tlie light pouring down from the center of the hall. , His face is florid and fair. There is vigor in his every movement. “Further up, at the Speaker’s left hand, on the front bench, sits the leader of the opposition— Mr. Gladstone, late Chancellor ol the Exchequer —a man who has seen fifty-eight years of life, but. who is yet in his prime, both of body and mind. He, of ail others, is most likely to be the next prime minister. He is tlie son of a Liverpool merchant. In boyhood he began an acquaintance with classical literature at Eton and Oxford, nnd since graduation lias continued it by a close study of Homer mid tho Homeric age. “When but twenty-five yenrs of age lie was made a Lord of the Treasury, and from that day to the present lie has been nearly all of the time in public life—always on the liberal side. He is a high churchman nnd was once cut up by Macaulay, who reviewed with trenchant criticism Mr. Gladstone’s book entitled "The State in its Relation to the Church. “He lias been a hard worker, and timo lias left deep furrows on his brow. “Across tlie table, at the Speaker's right baud, sit the ministry—among them Mr. Disraeli, upon whom all eyes are turned to-nigtil—for upon what lie may have to say important issues arc pending. He is four years the senior of Mr. Gladstone, and is now sixty-two—a native ot London—son of the author of ‘Curiosities of Literature.’ “He sits there waiting till tlie resolutions be recorded In the order of tlie day—his hands to | liis forehead, fondling one stray lock of hair, his j heavy eyelids drop as if he were asleep. Those I who have overseen him in thecartoons of Punch j need no further description of his general up- } pearance. He is dressed in light-colored pant- j loons and black frock coat and cravat."

Mr. Ayer, not less acceptable to South- [i rn people, has under him the charge of the At- llunta schools. The teachers are young ladies llrom almost every State of the Nortli, of tho rough education generally, having left such pn- Bitions at home as would jitions at home as would shame many ot tho Southern ladies if they knew it, who, through a Gnost ungenerous prejudice, look down upon them. J The ignorant wiiitcs of tlie Soutli are much I more the objects of charity than the freedmen.— |Thcy have been in a most deplorable and almost Ihopeless condition for generations, their poverty [precluding their owning any valuable property, land there being no demand for common white ■labor. In addition to all the degradation ol tlie ■blocks, they are physically run down. The ne- | gro, from continued labor, presents a magnificent | physique, but the poor ignorant white has not even this. They live in the upper counties,owning general ity a yery little poor land, and the most shiftless |, i,me into market often a hundred miles, driving la single steer or cow harnessed into a rodgh It-itrt with perhaps a single bale of cotton, the Iwbo'ls saleable proceeds of the year's work of a ■large family.

As an | illustration ol their ignorance, a Northern gen- [tloman, who had been residing in Fernadina, [Florida, comparing notes with me, one day, in [traveling, related this circumstance : | One day mi elderly man, some seventy years of age, and a girl came into an office, he was oc cupying with a .luslieo ot the Peace, to be mar I rieci. There was such a discrepancy in their ages, the gentleman was quite shocked, and lelt iUiis duty to inquire into the matter a little. He I lound it however all riglitj it being a regular love match. . , I After they were married, certificate made out, | *c. he said, lie tried to impress upon them the s icredness of the marital relations and vows. Hud laid particular stress upon the certificate, (as something tangible,) and exhorted them to prej serve that inviolate “till death did them P art - . Borne months after, he says, walking to this ot- liee, be spied this old gentleman in the street, driving tlie inevitable steer, and sealed in the cart alone. lie could not resist the temptation of speaking to him. The old gentleman was pleated to see him, and at once told him that he was just going to Ids olllce to have his marriage | <• rtiiii ale changed. " That gal," said he, “ the 1 .justice jiued me ui has gone aud jiued herself to another man, I remembering what you said bout the stiOkit—how sacred "was, and all that, him to be reading, so unvaried his tones. His | arms drop by his side, then he clasps his bauds i behind his back, places them once more on the I table, then tolds liis arms, drops them once more, j again throws them behind liis back, and then ! leans upon the table. These are Ids gestures.— ! Through the hour and a quarter of his talk there is no graceful movement of arm, hand or finger —no elegant poise of the body. You are re minded ot a schoolboy upon the stage who does not know wlmt to do with his hands. He has also a see-sawing motion, bringing liis face well down toward the table, as if Ins speech was written on the solid oak, and then standing erect, as if to give utterance to a firm conviction — Then there is a hesitation—a holding of a word j half uttered upon the lip, while searching for a i term which will express not the most but the least—a circumlocutory expression of how not to do it.” BY-PLAY.
