The Negro Rare.
There nro many speculations presented in the
world of letters as to what will be the ultimate
fate of the negro race in America under the in
spirations of freedom. Tlio general and most
popular idea Reams to ho that, in the course of
a period of years, the race will, liko the Indian

Col. Martin** Rejoinder to Qov. Brown.
Those who havo not engaged in tho edit< uuifi come extinct Already, wo begin to boo tho in
profession, can havo no proper concept ion of the dications of deterioration in that they dio more
wear and tear of tho physical system by con- rapidly than they did iu a state of slavery. This
tinued and never-ending stress oftlio mental facul-j lhet in said to bo more observable in tho frequent
ties of tho oditor, if at all ambitious of succcsf^
in his vocation. This is no moro applicable to
tho conductors of the daily press thau it is to
the editors of tho weekly press. On well-regu
lated daily papers, tho work is allotted to indi
viduals for each department ; and, therefore,
each man has certain duties to perform which,
when accomplished, his day’s work iH done. On
a well-conducted weekly press there is generally
but one editor, whoso duty it is to look after
evory department of his paper tho political,
tho nows, the local; road his proof, make up
forms, keep the books, see after tho finances, &c.
When tho daily press oditor publishes tho nows
each day as it reaches him. it docs not require so
much mental labor to pick and cull tho most
useful aud important items, liko it does upon a
weekly. The “heavy man” in a doily paper,
taking our Southern press as tests, is really the
only man, on the editorial staff, whoso mental
capacity is put to tho severest tests. Tho cleri
cal labor of getting up local items is tho severest
labor of the local editor of a daily paper. The
tact for condensing and placing into roadablo
form, tho nows of the day, is one that few pos
sess, and requires considerable mental effort.—
But to write leader day after day, and in a style
to bo entertaining and instructive, is a herculean
task, when performed by one man, as it is by
tho conductors of tho Southern daily press. It
is a draft upon the mental and physical faculties
that has scut many prematurely to the grave.—
Unlike tho well-supported journals of the North,
the labor of the various departments—political,
scientific, and literary—is not divided, with n
writer or writers for each subject, but all devolves,
to less or greater extent, upon one man, such is
the feeble support given to the Southern press.
This continued tension of the mind—this con
tinued stress upon the mental faculties —is a con
stant and heavy draft upon the physical system,
which few have the power of endurance sufficient
to bear np to old age. Thus it is seen that the
life of a Southern editor is one of exhausting,
and wo may say unrequited, labor—giving to
the public his whole life of physical and mental
powers for a mere trifle, oftentimes dying with
out the means of paying his own funeral expens
es. The support to the press ought to bo such
as to enable it to employ moro writers to enable
proprietors to divide the mental labor—employ
ing a man for each department of editorial duties.
It is “the modern scientific idea that three or
four hours’ closo mental labor call for twice the
repose that docs the same expenditure of time
in hand work—the call being far greater upon
4jcrvo power and other sources of vitality.” Aud
y^ what editor, either upon a daily or weekly
paper, takes to himself so much rest ? Public
expectation and demand does not allow it. His
ambition, if he has it, to make his journal accep
table, forbids it. Tho poor support given to the
Southern press prevents the employment of ad
ditional labor and talents. This want of proper
and sufficient support by the Southern press is,
to a great extent, the cause of tho slow progress
of journalism at the South. Journalism, to be
successful, must bo backed by capital, ability
and enterprise, together with proper training, iu
early life, of its conductors. With us it is too
j often the case, that journalism is resorted to by
men, educated for other professions, and failing
in.them for want of ability, as a dernier resort
a living, and thus they become incubuses on

■~-r-jDuudaring to 4 Uio vitiated tastes of exacting
patrons in the abominable display of advertise
ments with hundreds of different styles of type
—presenting to the public a mere specimen sheet
of all the printing materials they have in their
offices for newspaper and job printing. In many
of these particulars, we confess our own short
comings and trespasses upon the excellences of
the “ art preservative,?-’ and wo invite the craft
to join ns in an effort to correct these abuses of
our high and noble profession, a calling in which
we may exhibit much cultivated taste. We de
sire to see journalism at the South brought to a
higher standard of excellence as regards mechani
cal skill and editorial ability; and we here ex
press our readiness-to give way to, cr to follow,
any proposition to attain those desirable ends.
The first point is, typographical neatness, and
the second is, experienced and successful edito
rial management, to make Southern journalism
more respectable and remunerating.
Having extened these desultory remarks ftir-
ther than we intended, we leave the subject to
further comment at some future time.
deaths of their children, the parents of many of
whom being indolent and la?y, do not provide
healthful and comfortable subsistence for their
offspring, and they thus beooino subject to dis
ease, aud for tho want of proper medical and
parental attention, dio out. It is a remarkable
fact, aR wo are informed by practicing physicians,
there aro fewer births among thorn than former
ly, owing to the fact, to a great extent, that they
arc less virtuous than they were in the condition
of slaves. This may appear strange to the peo
ple of the North, who are not familiar with tho
negro race. While they were slaves, there was
no healthier or moro prolific race of people on
earth, because their owners were careful of their
health and anxious for their increase. They,
therefore, received every attention that would
promote those cuds.
Freedom lias wrought a great change in the
negro. From tho industrious, well-fed, well-
cared-for slave, lie has become the restless poli
tician, not caring to-day what will become of to
morrow. Here to-day aud elsewhere to-morrow
—unreliable as a laborer—living only to-day-
pillcriug and stealing when hunger forces him
to satiate the demands of nature. But lot us
state distinctly that these remarks do not apply
to all Wo think they trill apply to a largo and
too numerous a proportion of the negro race.—
As a general thing, they seem to be a dissatis
fied people, having, it would seem, no local hab
itation—pursuing a kind of nomadic life—look
ing about for liis “forty acres aud a mule,’’ only
to be disappointed and discontented at bis hum
ble lot.
Such is tho uncertainty of negro labor, as
viewed by many leading men of the South,
planters and farmers, that they aro beginning to
despair of it as a means of building up tho
prosperity of this section, and they are begin
ning to look to the crowded populations of tho
Northern States, and of Europe, for the moro
industrious, thrifty classes of laborers who aro
ready to come among us to better their condi
tions. Should tho introduction of white labor
become successful, as it is believed it will be,
then the problem of the negro race will begin to
develop the idea of final extinction or removal
from tho confines of tho wliito race, and they
will, perhaps, relapse into their native barbarism,
indolence aud crime only to become extinct like
other inferior races.
Whatever may be said of the patriarchal insti
tution of slavery, it cannot be denied that it has
done more to civilize and christianize the negro
race than all other attempts combined. It has
brought him from the wilds of Africa and placed
him where he has received instruction that could
not have reached him in no other way, though
that trade has been condemned for many years
by the people of this country, North and South.
His tendency now, under tho influences of free
dom, does not inspire us with the hope that his
condition has been bettered in his new state of
existence, although we may safely say it
ter for the white race, however much the asser
tion is in opposition to the previous convictions
of our people, that he has been emancipated.
What is to bo the final destiny of the negro
race in this country is a problem none of us can
safely undertake to solve. Wo hope he will yet
rise superior to his present aspirations and be
come useful to the country aud beneficial to him
self. This is tho desire of every truly philan
thropic man or woman in the land, and it should
Ua tiia ull tqjnvo that illiterate and
unfortunate race all the mental advantages pos
sible and assist them in the road to prosperity
and to a higher and nobler destiny. This much
wc owe to God who is tho author of their exist
ence as well as our own. Such assistance he
needs more than he does tho ballot, which he is
incapable of using wisely aud discreetly, and
which he cannot understand or appreciate in his
present ignorant state.
On the first page of this week’s Reporter will
be found tho able and conclusive rejoinder of
Col. James H. Martin, of Mississippi, to tho de
fense made by Gov. Brown against tlio charges
mode in regard to Brown's amours with Mrs.
Fanny Martin, known as the “Brown Martin
Affair. ” If any doubt had rested upon our mind
as to Brown’s guilt, alter reading liis defense,
which production has convinced many of his il
licit amours with Mrs. Marlin, Ool. Martin has
cleared away tho fog raised by Brown most com
pletely. We do not see how Brown is to moot
this, wlmt scorns to us an unanswerable, rejoin
der, if ho should attempt to do so. Ilad Broyn
taken the advice of some of liis friends, to re
main silent in regard to this matter, ho would
havo actod tho wiser part, aud inlyht havo outliv
ed tho charges. Taking the original ohargos,
Brown’s labored defense and tho rqjoiudor of
Col. Martin altogether, they present to tho closo
observer a combination of events aud circum
stances, so woll connected, that it seems no one
can bo misled in making up a correct conclusion
It will bo remembered that a correspondent of
tho Intelligence)', ovor tho signature of “Justice,”
made a miserable failure in trying to excnlpato
Brown, which was evidently dictated by his Ex
cellency, and in which said writer stated that
Brown only met Mrs. Martin twice—the first time
for 20 minutes and afterwards long enough to
give her a letter to tho Secretary of War. By
Brown’s own showing, ho mot her oftenor, and
became very intimate with her as a legal advisor.
We know nothing of Colonel Martin personal
ly. Wc have never seen him. Mr. Samuel J.

The colicky individual who does the scribbling
for the Augusta Bepiibttcan, a fow days ago, jubi

Presidential election, foaming over with the ex
uberance of gushing youth, spoiling for a chance
to dispense himself generally for tho public

Democrats and all; determined to do something
magnanimous, provided he could comprehend
.such a thing; was anxious that the past should
bo forgotten, and all unite in trying to promote
the public good. He was willing to meet Demo
crats half way, Ku-KIux ami all. We told him
we should n’t step one inch in his direction, and
the resnlt is that tho poor fellow seems to Lave
undergone a night of torturing dreams of Ku-
Kluxcs—severely oppressed with a dreadful and
obdurate night-marc- making him ns cross as
an old wet ben and as “mad as Tucker.” The Re
publican has lost its balance of mind and is tot-
toriugfrom one extreme of passion to another.—
It has raised the dry bouos of all the Ku-Kluxes
iu Georgia. « , ...
We had no idea that wo would so shook the
nervous organism of tlio Republican in telling it
that we would n’t moot it half way. Bat, for the

that, if inspired and prompted to rctnm to the

contrary of such motives, that wo will not take
time or space to refute Brown’s contemptible
dodge.
Brown said he didn’t believe Mrs. Martin over
became tho mother of a bastard child. Read ex
tracts from her letter in Col. Martin’s rejoinder.
We also have in our possession a letter dated
at Macon, Sept 3, in which the following occurs:
“ As to tho baby, I would refer you to proprie
tors of the Battle House, Mobile, and St. Charles,
in Now Orleans.” So it seems she did give birth
to a child, and our opinion is that Joe Brown
kuows more about it than any other man. Mr.
Martin says such was so aud it must be so.
We submit tho rejoinder of Colonel Martin as
a straightforward document, in which there are
no attempts to dodge any issue.

Result of tlxc Klcction in GcorgiA,
At Inst wo have the official vote of Georgia in
tlie recent Presidential election beforo us, as ob
tained from tho Executive office, and furnish
ed the Atlanta Era for publication, footing up
the overwhelming majority of 45,688 for
Seymour and Diair. This result is well calculated
to ehecr every true Georgian who is in favor of
Constitutional government and tho snpremacy
of the white race in this State, if not in others.—
We never believed the true sentiment of Georgia
was in favor of putting the black race in the as
cendancy, ns it was made to appear by the vote
on the bastard Constitution begotten and spew
ed out by a gang of political buzzards who
thrust themselves upon us by and through the
agency of tho sword as our law-makers and mas
ters the scalawags and the carpet-baggers who
have only come among us for the spoils and
emoluments of office, having no sympathy or in
terest in common with our people or for the
prosperity of the State. Their day, thank the
Lord, is past, and Oeor'jians shall again manage
their own affairs.
Having defeated us last spring by tho most
corrupt means ever brought to bear upon any
people, and having been defeated in the late Pres
idential contest, because it was fairly and
honestly condOttod, the poor devils aro mak
ing every effort to devise some show of frauds
committed by Democrats. They are a pretty
sot of rascals to talk abont frauds! Their
papers, and their correspondents to Northern
Kadieal journals, are constantly charging upon
ns frauds and intimidation at the polls, when, in
fact, there never was a more fair election. ’ If
frauds have boon committed, why don’t they pros
ecute ? One old olerieal political skunk, endeav
ored to make it appear that such was resorted to
in LaGrango, when it is known by every gentle
man, that no one was prohibited or deterred
from voting entitled to do so. The troth iR,
they are disappointed in their expectations.—
They thought they had Georgia in a swing, and
could use the State as they pleased; but in this
they have “ counted without their hosts."
Georgia has been redeemed, and the days of
the reign of scalawaggery and carpet-baggery is
ended, we hope, forever! For this every true
Georgian should shout glory to God on high for
giving ns such a signal victory over our enemies.
This we say most reverently and piously—for no
man can deny that we ought to give thanks
for tho redemption of this old Commonwealth
from the fonl domination of the political scoun
drels who havo held the bayonet to our breasts
for tho last two years, and rnled ns with tiro
sword!
Old Ku-Kiajx Figuring.—The most ridiculous
absurdity we have seen lately is tho attempt of
a fellow by the name of John H. Caldwell, at
present staying I 0 this piaoe, and who is deceiv
ing the negroes with pretensions of being n
preacher, to show fraud and intimidation to
wards the negroes in the Presidential election
by a comparison of the Governor’s election fig
ure* with the result of the recent one, He goes
into a labored tabular statement to prove that
the negroes were not permitted to vote, Why,
the old reverend hypocrite seems to forget thnt

while thousands have become indifferent to vot

Bureau iu nearly all the States have boon rec
ed at tlio headquarters. The last ono received
was that of Gen. Hatch, Assistant Commissioner
of Louisiana. In common with the rest, he
urges the continuance of the Bureau on tho
ground that it is necessary for the welfare of the
negroes.”
■ Aud tho tale is simply the fact that this infa
mous Radical curso is to be continued to longer
burden the people with heavy taxation and in
order thnt they may 1x3 liarrassod and an
noyed with impertinent intcrmcddlcrs in our do
mestic affairs. “ For tho welfare of the negroes,”
indeed! How many of them are benefttted by it ?
Had it not been for this “Bureau” the negroes
would to-day have been a hundred per cent, bet
ter off than they are. They would have gone
to work to maintain themselves instead of hang
ing around “ Bureau” officers, begging for bread
at a time when employment and wages were be-
in^ offered to them for their sendees.
Tho truth, in a nutshell, is, that the whole
thing iA simply a Radical scheme to control the
politicftl'uflairs of the Southern States to the ad
vantage of the Railical party—for it is well known
that the great majority of the officers of the
“Freedmon’s Bureau” belong to that party, and
have used their influence to tho utmost extent
to array tho negroes, politically, against their
former masters, and they havo been instrument
al in getting up more than half the riots and
bloodshed which have occurred in the South, in
order to make Radical capital at the North, and
they havo succeeded but too well.
AVe will do tho justice to say that tliero are
officers of the “Bureau” who have strictly con-
fiued themselves to the performance of their offi
cial duties. For these wo have not had a single
hard thought, but take great pleasure in giving
them credit as honorable gentlemen. In this
connection, it is no more than justice to say that
we have an officer of tho Bureau in our midst
whose desire it is only to perform his duties with
exact justice to the negro and the white man.—
We refer to Lieutenant Haskell.

Duty of the Hour,” is a manly protest against
sacrificing principle to expediency. “The De
fence of Beast Butler” is novel and entertaining.
“The Letters from Mount Vernon” will be read
with interest by all, who revere tlie name of
Washington. ‘ * Pen-feathers” is a spicy burlesque
of would-be poets and authors. “St. Louis,
Missouri," is a valuable article, full of important
statistics. The fiction, poetry, and humor of this
number compare favorable with the pcceding
numbers. Terms —$3 a year in advance.
Business letters should be addressed to Gen.
D. H. Hill, Charlotte, North Carolina.
Gov. Brown should never again deign to no
tice Martin or the Jieporter.—Era.
We don’t know but the poor Era is ^outright.
Gov. Brown should never again deign to notice
Martin or tho Reporter—unless he can clear up
that little scrape of his better tlura he lias in his
defense. And we don’t know but the Era has
cause to pursue the same course towards tho Re
porter, too.
^©-There’s Brown, there’s Bullock, thero’s
Blodgett, there’s Blount, there’s Bryant, there’s
Beaird, (colored,) there’s Bradley, ditto, all
standing in a row, presenting a most beautiful (?)
picture of Radical talent and honesty. And, in
the back ground, with hat off, nibbing his hands
patronizingly, thore stands poor Bard, the jocund
editor of the Era. What a grand moral show!
E. A. Pollard.—Gen. D. H. Hill, in his splen
did magazine, “The Lund We Love,” for De
cember, speaking of Pollard’s pretended history
of the war, says: “There was not a drummer
or colored servant in Lee’s army, who had not
more accurate knowledge of the battles of the
late war than the bomb-proof penny-a-liner, who
set himself up os their chroniclo.” Pretty tart.

n tush frf this terriblo element then is
tlie swaying of the branches of willows by tho
whirlwind; or the opening of tlie earth, no more
than tho dividing of an April cloud by tlie light
ning's vivid Hash; and can you conceive of a
more pitiable situation for a man, than when
placed under circumstances that robs him of
overy attribute of manhood—huleprndmre, scf-
rcUoncr, iCy., leaving him as helpless as tlie lxilie
when first it lies upon its mother's breast. No
one, who has never experienced tho sensation,
can form any idea of what it is.
“ As to the damage dune the city, ns a matter
of course, I ennnut enter into detail. Suffice it
to say, that tliero is not now standing within tlie
incorporate limits of San Francisco a single
brick or stone building uninjured. I heard an
old citizon of the city say, to-day, that instead
of the paltry sum of two or three hundred
thousand dollurs covering the loss sustained by
it, five millions would not repair the damage
done; and this gentleman is the city engineer,
a man who understands architecture; and from
wlmt I have seen of him, not at all addicted to
cxl ifif> eri rii 0 u. To this sum add what you con
imagiuo is tho decline of stocks and real estate in
the city, and you have some idea of tho pecuniary
loss. Thoro aro some portions of the State that
suffered moro severely than did Sun Francisco.—
I,os AugeloB, iu the extreme Southern partof the
State, where, by tho way, Dr. Ormo is located, is
the only point that I have heard from that did not
suffer from this earthquake. Every ono thnt can
leaving the city. There lias not, since
tho earthquake, a single stage, steamboat or car
left tho city that was not crowded, on account
of shocks which continue every few hours. All
who have been living in brick or Btonc houses
are leaving.”
Chkistmas is Coming.—It is hardly nocessary
to remind our little renders that Christmas is
coming—they all know that quite as well as we
do. We want to tell them, however, that when
they aro looking out for Christmas gifts, there is
no present so cheap or so valuable as a year's
subscription to Burlce's Weekly. $2 will insure
its visits every week the year round. Think of
this when you go to lay out money for Christmas
or New Year's presents.
Parents whoso childroh are not now taking the
Weekly, will do well to Bond $2 for a year’s sub-
scription. It will give the children moro solid
enjoyment than S20 worth of anything else you
can buy for them. All who send $2 by Ihe 1st of
January will rcceie-e the December number gratis.
