THE ME6B0E8’ WAYS. Els Oalantry aa Shawm la OeavtrtaUt* ■ With Vnu ot his Eats. ( -k lutalpbUTiu**:] in waiting up the negro character and cbpractetisticK, often the pen it laid aside with the mental thought, “there it no more to be said; I have exhausted the negro subject.” - But after all it seems inexhauitible, lor little unexpected rnCidants occuring on a plantation frequently give rise to various ideas in regard to fread labor, which otherwise would not suggest themselves. As is general- Jy known the negroes do not, except in a few insolated cases, possess any given name,which is their’s by right of birth or inheritance. Since free dom, however, they have adopted any name that strikes their lane and ev.incea the greatest delight when they are addressed aa Mr.. Mrs., or Miss Wilson. Walk.r Jones, as tne case may be. For years alter the new order of things South, the lady or gentleman of the house would express consid erable disgust and indignation, if, when called out to see Mr. or Mrs. Somebody, they should be confront ed by a dusky son or daughter ef the land. But habit becomes second nature and we are becoming quite accustomed to the Mr. or Mrs. of the freed negroes of the South. This mode of address, however, is never employed by the whites. We skill cling to the Unde and Aunt of ante bellum days, where the age of the person addressed warrants the courtesy. As a general thing the negro pute ub his Sunday manner* with bis Sunday clothes and the grimy work- ing John of the week on Sundays develops himself into the respects' ble, dashing Mr. Thomas, aping to pertection the manners ana styles ol the young boss of the plantatu while the dusky belles borrow many little airs and graces from u de white, ’oraan” whom at heart they truly detest. This Sunday dvilty rarely ever extends itself to the wnites,aad they frequently pass yon withdefiant looks or averted heads, this being more easily noticeable in the freed woman, nor are the men as polite to the whites when they are la com pany with the gentler sex as when they are alone. Not long since a gentleman and his wife returning from church,met quite a dusky tbroag just in front ot the meeting house. Both the lady and gentleman gave them a kindly bow and smile, while the gentleman bent forward and pleasantly remark ed: “You have had a nice day {(or going to church.” Not a smile, not a word in answer to hie salutation, only a sea of of dark brows and sul len faces. Sorely discomfited the gentleman drew his bead in the huggy.while his wife quietly chuck led in her corner aad teasingly ob served: “Your politeness was iost on that crowd.”' Ob no,.not lost, but 1 feel sorter cheap,” he replied. And now for a conversation be tween Miss Wilson and Mr. Hun ter. “Good evenini is tnore’n please: is your bet?” “Jis middlin’, trank you.Mr. Hun ter. How ta you stanaing de times youaeff" “Jit tolurble, frank you Mist Wil son, I wus cornin’ down to see ybp to-nite.” “All rite, Mr. Hunter, do so; I’ll be tnore’n proud to ’ceibe yon. I jis earned up to de quarter to see Mrs. Walker ’corden to a pintment I made wid her. I’ll be turning koine in less dan no time.” “In dat cose miss, I’ll gib mysef de pledger of reacorting yon beck home; dal is if you ain’t in no wise ’posed to my company ." “Jla listen,Mr. Hunter,how you is u talking! In course I’ll be more n proud to ’ceibe year detentions and I ain’t gwine to keep your pstiuace watin’ long nudder. I’a jis gvdne , Miss Wilson. 1 to tee you. How ber and I told her as I ingenaraliy axes de ladiea what I want to treat and ahe bad better wait till I axked her and dtn ’low me fp treat her.” Did you ever aak ber?” queried young Lucy. “In cuurae not; I tin think it ia ’coming in a lady to ax a geateun to treat her. Miaa Lucy,” he con tinued, looking at hi* feet, “how ia you like clem two treats I gin you?” “Oh, I liked them ever so much. Did you enjoy the dancing?” “Don’t talk about it. Da; dancing beat creation. It’pears like as bow you gits arou«’mity life , aad easy like. Dat Baker gal flings herself around like she was gwine te tear lings all to splinters and yet you beat her all hollow.” “You mutt know,” replied Lucy, yrith * conscious tone ef importance, “that the white folka taught me how to dance. I dances just as th* white •killuni rl4a«c. Z ItKfiS (be glide, polka. the wait* and such like, but these quarter bands esn’t dance so much as that.” “That’* so” replied the lad; “but tin you think a* how I kep’ up wih you pretty, well, la*’, night? 1 kin' Whittle all dem air* Miss Amy play a, and it ’peart te me as it I is ketch- ing dem fancy ttep* right along.” . “Oh yes, Water, you dees right, considering; but Miss Amy is I jest calling me and I must go. Good night. Don’t forget to pile me qp some wood on the alley befere you go, and may be one of these day ! will learn von how to dance ight nay. Good night agin.” . it perhaps after all we hare wandered too far in search of true negro galantry and could have found it batter exemplified in the aged colored .man who lifts his torn hat from his snowy head^nd bring ing his right, fot foreward, scrapes it on the ground saying as he does sot “De morning to you, mister;’’ or yet.in the decrepit negroes who drop* respectful conrtecy and with a kindly smile on her withered face extends her hand Tor a greeting, bqt these old landmarks are fast dying out and there ia left in their stead a race of nncultured beings, Who, save in self-interest will have no kindly feelings for Useir white employers. A SeMlsr's ixpsrlsne*. Said Bill Pearce, in tlje hearing of the Toccoa News: ' I never kill- ed but two men in the war. It was at Cleveland,Polk county,Ten nessee, one Sunday.evening about sun-down. They nad been killing the pickets. My tprn came and I thought I was a gone Injun, but I kept a sharp lookout aad at sun. down I saw a negro slipping through the bushes coming at me; I watched until I was satisfied he intended ,to kill me and then I pop- K him. Then * white nuin came of the bushes rjght at me. It waa one or the other; I didn’t want i t to be me, so I gqve him a bullet. I can'see that nigger just any time.

I was elected aa in alderman and fa the council made Mayor pro tern. A question came up one night when I was io the chair, three aldermen beiag present. When the vote came two voted one way and one anbtber. I held that aa an aider- man, elected by the people, I had a right to vote, and did so, tiemg the vote.'

' “Dat am share a fine young gal,” he muttered aloud, “an’ daf tint annudder young’oman dit side ob de creek dat kin git aroun' so likely •t Mist Wilson, and Teminvishe kfa whirl aroun’ so rapid like when shea a-dtneing twill it makes my head fairly swim.
