MERCHANTS WHO DESIRE TO REACH FAMILIES WILL FIND IT A MOST VALUABLE MEDIUM. The Freedmen’s Bureau Commis sion. The Constitutionalist of yesterday contains an interesting report of the proceedings of a meeting of colored citizens, held at Springfield Church, on Sunday last, called- at the instance of Generals Steedman and Fullerton, the Commissioners appointed by the Presi dent to enquire into the affairs of the Freedmen’s Bureau. The Churih was crowded to over flowing, and was redolent with the odors of “Lubin’s Extracts;” while the choir filled the vacant space with sounds melodious. General Steedman proceeded to address the meeting, stating the object of his mission, and requesting some of the .colored people present to givo him their views in re gard to the operation of the Freedmen’s Bureau. In compliance wilh this request, Rev. Mr. Drayton. Moses Gardner, Charles Frazier, Robert Kent, and Dave John son, all American citizens of African descent, proceeded to give their views, which covered a very wide range, ex tending not only over the entire surface of the Bureau, but taking in the rich and poor, the Recorder’s Court, the Police, and the region of Dublin, “so called,” because of the large number of respectable and industrious Irish citi zens who live there and thereabouts. ’ Ope of the speakers, Moses Gardner, very ungratefully, said that the United States-Government- had not freed the negro because they wanted to do so, but simply as “a war measure.” Now, although Mose may have been, ns we have said, ungrateful, yet we admire candor and truthfulness; for the Eman cipation proclamation did only give the negroes their 'freedom conditional upon the continued obstinacy of “the Rebels” t> yield to the United States Govern ment. That contingency existed—the obstinancy continued ; and the negroes, consequently, became free. They owe no thanks to the Government, therefore, but are really and truly indebted to the people of the South, the so called Rebels, who persisted m their resist ance to the Government. When we say, therefore, that Mose was ungrate ful, we must be understood as meauing that he was ungrateful to his white fellow citizens of the South, in neglect ing to acknowledge them as the real authors of his freedom. Moaes also gave it as his opinion that the better classes of white people were disposed to do right by the blacks, while the poor people were guilty of injustice to them. In answer to a question from General) Steedman, he said that “the better classes” did not rule the city, but that Dublin did, on Election days. The Rev. Mr. Drayton was of the opinion that the whites would have to be educated up to the point of adminis tering impartial justice to the blacks. The entire proceedings seemed to show that the Negroes present did not understand the situation’properly, but that they spoke or answered questions according to their prejudices, and with out any regard to facts or the issue be fore them. ’ They appeared to labor to convince the Comraissiou that the white people would not give them justice, while distinctions were made in this re spect with regard to' the white people. Now, an inspection of the Records of the Courts will show how groundless is this imputation. One of the speakers, Dave Johnson, said that a colored man and a white man had been brought before the Recorder’s Court for keeping open their establishments on Sunday; that the white man had been dismissed,, but the colored man was fined. The facts in this instance are that the colored man was found to be guilty, while, in the other case, there was no evidence. Did Johnson think that the colored man ought to have been discharged, and the white man fined ? That may have been his idea of justice, but it is not the style of administering it, either in the North or South—neither in the Freedmen’s Courts uor in the Civil Courts. There are several cases where Negroes have been dismissed, and white men found guilty; and the disposition of the Courts seems to be te give the negro all the jeniency possible, but where there is any guilt of a serious character, whether in black or white, to punish it severely. Johnson might have stated that there vh a colored woman convicted recently in the Recorder's Court, for some offence, but as she had a family of small children to provide for, who could not subsist without protection, ho required the prosecutor to provide for the chil dren'during the woman’s imprisonment, or she would be dismissed. This was an act of humanity, which the speakers did not mention. It is useless to say that they were not aware of it, because, if they desired to do justice it was their duty to enquire into all tbo facts, and to make a plain but full and impartial statement. In regard to the vote of the meeting upon the action of Gen. Tillson, in re ference to the negroes attempting to strew flowers upon the graves of the Federal dead, we have but little to aay. That officer having done his duty, and received the approval of his superiors, need trouble himself very little about the opinion of others. It was merely, we suppose, as an act of courtesy that he asked for “a show of hands” upon the occasion refered to, and though the meeting seemed to be pretty equally di vided, it was, as Mr. Toots says “of no consequence.” So far as the Mayor of the city is concerned, we know he is de termined to protect the negroes in all their rights, and to see that they are not imposed upon. We presume these facts have all been properly laid before the Commission, and we simply state them here, to correct, as far as possible, the false impression which the speeches, to which we have referred, may possibly create abroad.

D-; Professor of Medical Chemistry in the Medial College of Georgia, at Augusta; and Formcrkt Surgeon in the Provisional Army of the Confederate Stela. The SOUTHERN MEDICAL and SUR GICAL JOURNAL, of Augnsta, Georgia, was established in 1836, by the late Professor Miltou Antony, the illnstrious founder of the Medical College of Georgia, and bus al ways commanded the respect and patronaga of the Profession, not only as one of the oldest and largest American Periodietls, but chiefly those valuable original com munications, contributed by the most emi nent, scientific men and practitioners of the Southern States, which have enriched it! pages during the past thirty years. The volumes already issued, embrace over six teen thousand closely printed pages, con taining more than six hundred original communications from professional men throughout the Southern States, besides an immense number of valuable articles, select ed from its ample list of American and foreign exchanges. During the recent civil war, the publica tion of tho SOUTHERN MEDICAL AND SURGICAL JOURNAL was necessarily sus pended. At tho close of a bloody and dis astrous war, which has ended in the destruc tion and surrender of the Southern armies, and in the destruction and capture of the archives of the Confederate Government, and of tho immense stores of medical facts and observations accumulated by the Medical Officers of the Confederate Army, under the direction of their intelligent and efficient Surgeon General, it is believed by medical men of the highost standing in this sectiea of tho fcouth, that it is important to estab lish at this time a Medical Periodical of sufficient size to furnish ample room for the publication of the valuable experience of the Medical Officers of the late Confederate Army. It will be the earnest effort of tho Editor to sustain the former usefulness of this Journal as a medium for the communica tion of tho discoveries and advancing doo trines ofscienco and of all the department# of Medicine, and of the facts and discove ries tending to develop tho material pro«- perity of the South, and especially of tho valuable Medical statistics and observation! of the reoent disastrous revolution. In view of tho good accomplished in timoi past by the publication of the SOUTHERN MEDICAL AND SURGICAL JOURNAL, the Editor feels no hesitation in urging ill claims upon its former patrons and friends. The SOU THERN MEDICAL AND SUR GICAL JOURNAL will bo issued every TIY 0 MONTHS, commencing let of July, 1866, and each number will contain ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY-SIX PAGES of printed matter, (octavo); the yearly publication will therefore number One Thousand and Fifty-six pages, and be equal in size to the largest American and Euro pean Journals.
