SPEECH TO HIS NEGROES.
Georgian Contrasts Southern with
Northern Treatment.
Columbus, (in., Sept. 17 —A re
port reached here from Kyle’s h mi
today of an unusual incident at the
plantation ofJ. Kyle, on the Chat
tahoochee river, some distance
from here. Kyle employs over 200
negroes and several white men on
his plantation ana is unusally kind
to his employes. There is no com
plaint of harsh treatment on his
plantation.
Determined to show his men the
contrast of their position with that
of their brethren in ttie* north, Kyle
rung his plantation bell, summon
i g the hands from every portion
> f ;he farm He then read them
a newspaper editoral, setting forth
the manner in which negroes have
recently been treated in Illinois
and advising southern negroes to
stay wher tney are. The editorial
was a strong one, and at its con
clusion Kyle made a vigorous talk,
exposing the falsity of the idea that
the negroes’only true friend is the
northerner, and advising them m
work hard, tie quiet and peaceable
and thus pave the way In timir own
-uccess and progress. '!'!■• speech
and editoral made a deep impress
ior. on the colored people and they
are still discussing it. the m gro
preachers here took the matter up
in their sermons tonight advising
the negroes to toilow the counsel of
Kyle.

to the police, and an account of the
robbery appeared in the nest morn
tug's papers [’he old gentleman had
slept through it all. and the next morn

“I see," said the loquacious Kaps as
he stropped his razor, "that thieves
broke in your house."
"V\ hen? gasped the oid geutienian.
“Last night." was the answer “1 read
all about it in the morning's paper.”
