The general impression prevails at the north, even among the most enlight ened, that the negro in the south occu pies a place in the estimation of the white man inferior to that of his dog, and yet an incident occurred in this city a few days since which has perhaps never yet been, and probably never will be, paralelled in any northern community. A certain negro, very well liked, but having no particular distinguishing qualiilcations, lubricated with “shorts” until “that wealthy feeling’’ possessed him, when he concluded to squander some of his surplus currency in a social gamo with some kindred spirits. The probabilities point to the players haring spent the “kitty” for liore of the lu bricating fluid, for when our vigilant police officers made a raid upon the place he was so overcome with “that tired feeling” that he was unable to ef fect his escape. At the trial ho was sentenced to sir months on tho chain-gang or the pay ment of a heavy fine. He had no money for the fine and the brick yard came near having an addition to its working force, but his white “enemy" stepped in and saved him from one-half years dis graceful labor. A subscription list was circulated and in a very short time the necessary amount was raised. He was liberated and wo will venture to state that there were many who contributed towards his freedom who had never heard of him. And yet New England says that the southern negro knows no friend save of his own color. They in that section of sublime enlightenment are glowing philanthropists on paper and are never so happy as when publishing polysyllablo effusions abnslvo of the south and its grinding cruelty to the emancipated race within its borders, but we notice that it is the southern white voter who taxes himself to eduoate the negroes and vide asylums for their Insane and and that it is not by phllanthroplo con tribution from the north that these In stitutions are reared and maintained.
