They must have fair ntul reasonable compensation. It is simple |to ly to expect satisfactory ninl } rofi table labor without this, as the ex|e riencc of making everywhere has lie* Imonstraletl. Now, while 1 have not only met with repeatci instances where the foitner slaveowner w s wi 1 - ling to be j list, hut even generous, to the freed men to a degree that excited my a Imirat o i, still 1 am compelled to tell you that among the many contract.* wli cb have been- presented to oflucts of the Hur nu and J’rovo-t Marshals, | for -pj r val, not a lew proposed to i give the lreedinen very inade(|nate ! compensation, and I regret to say that ; tit some which staitcU in a),; a cut fairness, there wote fotind conditions i which would it cvitahly have brought | the freed tut n in and bt tit the end of i the year, let him labor never so faiths j f’tl. Iby no means suppose that the | people of Georgia are remarkable for their disposition t> drive sha p bar-i gains, I ut 1 think y >u will admit there ! is still reason f w the ex rcise of a ( just and reasonable Miperv sing ctee in this matter by the o Hie ers of the Jlure.au, or some other disinterest l and . party. Second. They must bo secure in their pers it s, their homes and their fatuilits. in.the enjoyment of the fruits of their It! oh ai.d must: le treated justly and fai ly. I am a wave of i lie prejudices of thep ople on this sulrect, end I n ither pro) o c to gnore < r disregard them, titid wh lc L do ire above ‘ things to p ak kindly, still it is cvii tlently for the interest if the* people of the State, th.it 1 sp. ak free y and frankly. While you v -ry natu ally and properly believe that iiom associ ation and experience, you are better judges of the race than any man la’sed in the Neath, you will readily per ceive that ti>e oIH ‘ms of til’s Bureau ; arc in a much bett r p sit on to know of the acts of cruelty, injustice and outrage*praeticed upon the ficedmcn, than any citizen wh > may or may not hc-r . f such an act, when committed in his own ncigiiboiho- and. To the of ficers they become known from all parts of the State. In some places they are of daily, I might almost say, of hourly occurrence. Idoi of speak I at rand-mi and of mere tutu ns or com- , plaints, many of which are false or : m 1 ci >ns. .but from the records and 1 from well attested facts. L know that yon, as reye-es uifa.i. es of the State.! would be sho. ke 1, mo-tifi and aid ins dignant at the liidcou array. There < ate not a. few ins at ces in this State, j where freedom has been a bitter mock- j cry to these people, and where they have been subjected to cruelty from which they wculd have been protce, ted as slaves. Now ldo not propose t to be guilty of the short-sighted stu- i i pidity and injustice of judging the whole people of Georg a by men, mean, brutal and cowardly enough to practice useless, unncs.-ary ciuelty on a race already poor, ignorant and sub j sering. Suteli miscreants were never a part of the rc;d people of Georgia; they are the rowdies, blacklegs and scoundrels of the State, who now take • advantage of the disturbed and un- j settled condition of affairs to indulge . in their naturally brutal propensities. I kno thit you must desp's • and abhor such in- nat and their acts. And al though now, while smarting under the loss of slave propetty, and provoked by the bad behavior of the lice Imen in many instances, the people may be indisposed to exert themselves in their ) behalf, yet I have no doubt but that public opinion will soon rescstablish Ii soil, a-d gvej cw rlul aid in teprcssi ingsuch acts as I have mentioned. This must pr cede any things like a healthful and prosperous condition of! affairs; and for your own sakes, and ‘ that of humanity, 1 ask you to raise your voices and set*your faces against’ all such needless violence and cruelty. I mu exceedingly glad to be able to inform you that there is a noticer.ble and gradual improvement of the con ditions.of the IVeedmcn, and a decrease ol crime against them thatargues well for the future. Years ago you would not associate with a master who was j i guilty of such acts towards his slaves j j .Make the crushing weight of public I opinion felt now, and you strengthen j I immensely the hands of officers who I are charged with protecting the freed- I men from oppression at and cruelty. 1 This is one oftjie impoitant duties of | officers of the Bureau ; they are to , strive to he utmost to avoid .ivirg just cause of offence to the white peo ple, and will, in oxory case, punish jjecd people who. make false and ma licious charges. But wherever there is reason to believe that an act of cru elty has been perpetrated, they will use every means at their disposal to arrest the guilty party, and if caught and convicted, such persons will be certainly and severely punished* These people arc free ; it is a part TERMS $4,00 A Year, in Advnnce of my duty to l{ ertnnd maintain their tyedom and j.rntect them in their just iig’ ts; and while 1 shall endeavor to dothi- in perfect kindness, with th* most anx;ou.- de-iie to do simple j’us t ce to all, white or black, with th help >f l’ri viib nce, 1 will not t'nil i* doing my whole duty towards .them. I lie stern determination, to do thin • tiie fullest extent, and under all eir on iii> tailors, i- fortunately not iiicom latabljwith the most perfect good will towaids all well-i is posed citiztirn. In tlr.s lln Ibo .-imjly obeying tin# orders of the President of the L'niltd States, who pin cla med ‘‘that these people a e ami henceforward shall bo tree—that the Kxecutive authority of’ ti e I ni elSfi t s, t< g. t ier with ti e n ival and military powers thereof,shall roc g iize and maintain the freedom of such persons."’ Ido not propose, to lo bey ml the record, but to confine “ inyselt strietl'v within it. to obey the orders ol my superiors, and to carry int i cflect ihe kind and conciliatory policy of tlie Government It is also nvces ary that t..c freedmen should feel .secure in the possession of the ■ lights which have been guarranteed to them lid ss -this can be dyne, they will l e unse tied, suspicious, rcsflesy, and unj rotiuiblc laboiers. Inf. rtunately, men are found in tlio rftate angrdy proclaiming that Once civil government is restored, and the army removed, the negro will be forced back to Vs former condition, or something akin to it Officers travel* mg in I lie ttate, e.-peeially if without uniform very o!ten hear such remark?, i he lieedincii also hear this, it spreads | among them with great rapidity, they become alarmed, and to my knowledge this kind of talk in some localities has made iabor even more unreliable than before. It may be that there is am ng the people a latent expectation or hope of some, such action on the part of the State. If to, they are certainly de. tined to be disappointed. The people who euppresstd the rebel* ; lion, may differ on many other ques* j tions, but about the right, necessity or expediency if keeping sacred the J solemn pledge made the frccdnien, there is happily no question, only a constantly growing and deepening conviction that it must be maintained at ail hazards, at any. cost. Few things in the future are so c.rtain, as that no State v*ill ever be allowed to deprive these” people of the rights se*. i cured to them by the success of wur | arms, and the vam indulgence of any j such expcctioiis can only [trove inju.*t rious to the best interests of tlie peo !i le ami State. Doubtless a polity could be pursued which would drive the freed people Leyoi.d the borders, of the State, but such u course would be plainly suicidal. Vou must have labor or the State is ruined. She bt comes so much waste land, covered i with dec*} ing and tcnantlesa houses, and if tho Ireedmeu are driven aw %j from what source is labor to c me ? ! W hite laborers will not come here for ’ the simple reason that other States of ter much greater inducements to them The West has soil of inexhaustible fertility, a more agreeable and cudura ble climate for white Set- ■ I tied, established government, schools, 1 church-s and peon e who lespcct and 1 honor a working man. They are welj aware of the value to the community of a:i honest, industrious immigrant, and they take good caro that the srt* perior advantage offered by their conn, try snail be well unde stood. I think, a little reflection will convince the people that the tide of iin migrations cannot be turned South for many years to come . The few and simple conditions, then, which the Government asks the white people to comply with are theses To ‘give the frccdiueti. fair and just | compensation for their labor, .security 1 of life and limb, and iii the enjoyment |of the fruits of their industry. Noth* ing more j not the full rights of citi zenship ; not a'l the privileges freely conceded the laborers of the North.— i Grant this ,u good faith, and you on* ! able tin? off - cers of the ijureau to ex tend their utmost aid and assistance, in securing to you permanent.and re* liable labo I', 1 ', and in helping to restore peace, order and prosperity. The Government docs not insist Hn :on these conditions simply beeauit it jc /ii enforce its requirements, or for the purpose or annoying or humilitt* ting the people of the ith, but bes j cause with tbc destruction of slavery they become necessary and indispen -1 sable. It lias become responsible for tiie prutection of the treed men, and is pledged to maintain their rights, and ■ cannot shrink from this duty ; but the t same military force that it uses to. pro. tcct theni, it will lreely and promptly J employ in compelling them to perform their duties, if uecessary, and I know from my experience that it will be necessary. Numerous.instances have already come to.my knowledge, where ■ the freediuen not only refuse. to labor !on the plantation, but refuse to leave NO. 26.
