These ideas are dictated by a fixed res»>Iuti ,n. determined bv observation of the present polit ical a.-pect, and also by what I have observed through u prolonged residence in Bah sections of the United States In doing tins. I am well aware from past experience that I shall no doubt call dowu on my lie: d the vials id xsr.-.tii of the Radical party at the South, and if deem ed important enough, perhaps of the North also : but “I speak the words of solrern -s* and truth,” and I earnestly entreat my petiple not to be persuaded by the wild inventions ui'party faction athiressseti to them «*n isstics entirely outside of their material interests, but to listen to the words of one who has no personal ad van tage to subserve, and who. in making these re- unit Its is actuated simply by a desire to see in’s people pursue a course consistent with their pm c situation ami their future responsi bilities and duties ; for my colored luethren, we have most serious responsibilities and du- : ties in the future. We sprang from a state of slavery to c ue which makes us legislators and gives us a voice as potential as that of our late masters in tire government of the country, not the Southern country only, but the United States at large ; for reconstruction is about to ensue on our admission to political rights, and our vote in Georgia for Federal offices is equal to the vote of the white man.

But leaving all this out of the question, to were swept away iu a moment. One of the odd incidents, and that elicited some amusement amid all the distress, was an interview that occurred between Bilker and Madame Capreil, the fortune teher. To ap preciate the scene, you must know that the personal appearance of these two homological curiosities is decidedly anything but pleasing. Old Jacob has about as hard and angular a lace and as*hideous an iron jaw as we looked at.— His long, scattering white hair, hurley eye brows and defiant glance; his knittei I br< »w and bent large frame, give him a peculiar and striking appearance, somewhat (Jaiibau-like, however.

Some two weeks since lie went to the head of Silmon river, in Idaho, on a prospecting and hunting expedition, iu company with three or four others. In his desire tor game and adventure—ot both of which lie finally got a surfeit— he frequently left his companions and took a circuitous course.
