The Freedmen’s Convention.
We had understood that the Freed
man of this State were to hold a Con
vention in this city, but we had entirely
forgotten the fact, until we saw the pro
ceedings in the St. Louis Democrat, of
a lato dote. The report in the Demo
crat is a mere telegraphic synopsis, but
full enough withal to give a tolerable
clear itjpa oi the nature and object of
the proceedings.
There is a State organization known
as the Georgia Equal Rights’ Associa.
tion, of which Captain J. E. Bryant is
the Chairman, and the object of which,
if we understand it rightly, is to advance
the political interests of the Freedmen
in the State. The Convention was a
meeting ot the delegates from various
portions of the State. •
Now, we have no particular objec
tion to the colored people mating
together, and passing such resolutions
as they choose, provided any good can
be accomplished by it. But we do not
see where the good is to result from it
at present. The Freedmen have just
been turned out upon the world to pro
vide for themselves ; and if they are to
be dragged away from their associa
tions every few months to attend politi
cal meetings, it will be prejudicial to
them, prevent them from getting em
ployment, and use up their hard earn
ings. This much we say for the good
of the negro, for, notwithstanding the
efforts of the enemies of the South to
create the impression that there is a
great prejudice existing on the part of
white Southerners against the Negro,
we can safely say that the best friends
of the Negro are those who were lately
his owners. If there had beeu no
Freedmen's Bureau, there is no doubt
that the colored people of the South
would be in a far better condition to-day
than they now are, and the relations of
labor would be far more harmonious
and more compatible with the interests
of both whites and blacks. If they have
made enemies among their late masters
and protectors, it the fault of design
ing men, who Have taught them to be
lieve that we were their enemies, and
that in the assertion of their freedom
they possessed rights and privileges
which the Government never dreamed
of giving them. If the colored people
will pursue the course laid down by
their late Convention, of being "gentle
and kind, - ’ if they will really "live in
peace aud harmony with all mankind
and do all in their power to cause the
■white man to regard them as then
friends,” they will find that we are ali I
ready and willing to aid them in the !
good work. But if they pursue a con- j
trary course, they need not be surprised
that the white man will discard them
altogether ; that he will give them no
employment ; and that they must ere
long, become extinct as a race. The
voice of reason and prudence, therefore,
cries aloud to them to adopt a wise and
just policy, leaving politicians to take
care of themselves, to plow their own
fields and hoe their own rows, while
they, the Freedmen, plow and hoe, and
reap and mow for these who will pay
them and take care of them. Politicians
have done the white people no good :
let the negro beware of them. This is
our advice, given in all kindness and
sincerity. The following is the synopsis
of the Convention proceedings to which
we have referred to above :
Augusta, Git., April‘6. —The. meeting of
the Council of the Georgia Equal Rights
Association of the freedmen ot the State
convened yesterday at ten o’clock, which
was the second day of their proceedings, the
Vice President representing the various
counties being present, Captain J. E. Bry
ant, President for the State in the chair,
and Mr. S. P. Baird, Secretary pro tom, Mr.
K. T. Kontz, elect, being unwell.
The meeting opened with prayer by Rev.
Louis Smith, of Macon Georgia, when the
business for which the meeting convened
was opened. Additional statements of the
condition of the colored people of the State
were made, the tenor of which was modest
and becoming. A disposition was apparent
in all their remarks to mitigate the general
prejudice of the white man against the black
by gentleness and kindness. It was their
expressed intention to live in peace and
harmony with all mankind, aud to do ail
in their power to cause the white men to
regard them as their friends.
A proposition was made to divido the
State into districts, several counties making
a district, in order that they might orgauizo
associations' In different parts of tho State,
which was accordingly seconded and carried.
Resolutions were adopted congratulatory
of the results which had followed emanci
pation and many other acts calculated to
amelioriate their condition.
—The New York Tribune which lately
denounced with such vigor the use of
the word “donate" has given new cur
rency to “eventuated.”
Jefferson Davis.
Resolutions have been introduced into
Congress, calling upon the President
for information relative to the complicity
of JefTerson Davis in the murder of
Abraham Lincoln, and in acts of treason
against the government of the United
States, and recommending his immedi
ate trial. We die not know what effect
these resolutions will have; but there is
certainly one act which the President
can perform that will not only endear
, him to the Southern people but entitle
him to the respect and admiration of
the good and the humane every where,
—aud that act is the liberation and
pardon of the Southern ex President.
If he has “grievously erred,” grievously
hath he answered for it. For- twe've
months confined in a fortress, a portion
of the time in almost solitary confine
ment, he suffered martyrdom fora cause
which he believed, wisely or unwisely,
it matters not, just and good; and in
the defence of which we cannot conveive
that he was any more guilty than the
thousands of “Rebs” who acknowledged
and hailed him as their President. We
say that we do not believe he was any
more guilty than the rest, because lie
was the servant of the people who placed
him in power; he but performed the
duties which we assigned to him, as
J subordinate officials performed theirs.
We do earnestly hope, therefore, for the
honor of humanity and for the good of
the whole country, that the President
will, ere long, open wide the prison
doors of the grim oid fortress arid bid
Jefferson Davis go forth and breathe
the air of freedom once again and forever.
Immigration.
A Washington correspondent of the
New York Herald, slates that the De
partment of State has received a dis
patch from the United States Consul at
Funchal,'stating that a vast number of
poor, but honest and hard-working la
borers of Madeira, who are skilled in
the raising of cereals, the vine, sugar
eane, etc.,and in gardening, are desirous
of going to thd United States, but have
not the means for accomplishing that
object. He expresses the belief that if
one-half of their passage money could
be advanced to them bv parties in this
country on a contract, under the act to
encourage immigration, to be repaid in
labor, at least ten thousand of them
would be prepared to leave immediately-
This is an item of interest to South
ern Immigration Companies and persons
desirous of procuring white labor. Ten
thousand persons skilled in the raising
of cereals, the vine, sugar cane, etc.,
would be a most valuable addition to
our population. They are represented
a? poor, but honest and hard-working
laborers ; and if this representation be
correct, they are just the class of immi
grants that we want. Those interested
in the subject should look into this state
ment.
Area of the United States. —Hon.
Mr. Harlan, Secretary of the Interior,
in a recent letter to Rev. J. C. Fletcher,
replied to a question concerning the ter
ritorial extent of this country, in order
to afford the latter certain data for com
paring the area of Brazil with that of
the United States. The following is
the result in acres :
Acres.
Total area of the public lands
of States and Teritories 1,400,540,033
Total area of those States
where there are no public
lands 476,540,500
Area of Indian Territory 44,154,240
Area of District of Columbia 38,400
Graud total of area of United
States in acres 1,921,287,173
Or, 3,002,013 square miles. This
does not include the area of the great
lakes just within and forming a portion
of our Northern boundary ; neither
does it include the marine league on the
coast. Brazil, in 1845, had an area of
3,004,460 square miles : but it is esti
mated that since the settlement of her
boundary lines with several of the adja
cent countries, her area was increased
to 3,100,000 square miles. European
Russia has an area of 2,142,504 square
miles, and ail the other countries of
Europe have a total of 1,687,626 square
miles.
—The largest steer in Indiana—the
largest in America—and probably the
largest in the world, is now in Shelby
county, and is owned by George W.
Spurrier, lie is six years old, weighs
4,000 pounds, and was purchased on
the 26th ult., by Mr. Spurrier for $1,500!
He is undoubtedly the finest animal in
America.
—The editor of a paper published in
the mountains of California tells of
