FRESEIRERYS WORK Ili VIRGINIA.
IThe following interesting report of the opera
tions among the freedmen at Fortsmotittli t A 7 4., la
from one of the teachers of the PentfigrliSide
Freedmen's Relief Association: I ,-„,;;
With reference to my mission in)Oile Eftiloth,
aneak Prat of the school with Vliett Was
tonneeted.
I reached Portsmouth, Va.,thO 29th of NOvem
ber last. On entering the school I found 225 pu
pils and one teacher.
A lady from New Ha mpahlre (who !Vas com
mencing her fourth year of labot . upon this field)
was holding-this mass of ,zhildren together, and
for six weeks , had leen earneatiy, :beggingg for
help. A Boston lady and myself had made con
ditional arrangements to go to her relief, but
neither of us-was able to leave home until the
'rat of November. • '
This teachere from over effort and anxiety lest
we should not reach her at all, here at the be
gintildg,of her. laborious . ear, was thOioughlY
tired out, and her;
rallied fromber; fatigue
through the whole winter., After "three of us
were ready formed; we divided the school into
three &nag. • I took the middle division. This
gave rue pupils of an interesting age, ranging
from 8 to 16, with the same diversity in their
ability to learn that you would find among chil
dren in Northern schools. Many of them entered
upon their studies and kept up theirinterest with
an earnest enthusiasm; which made it a pleasure
to be their instructor others were indolent, and
required constant uriing to make them, keep up
with' their classed. - he,diselpline - of . the sehool
was a severe tax upon .my strength.
There is .a kind of rough and tumble animal ,
lifeabont these children; which ledillicidt to re-
strain, in their work, and in their play; they aro
noisy; full of a physical force.
This, I think, IS dne of their eon:tents of "power,
and will help them on in their march upward.
Then our surroundings were not pleasant. Oar
school building (whieb, by the way, was furnished
by the Government) was a rough' structure—not
large enough—full of gaping cracke, anti insuffi
ciently warmed, so that the children (many of
whom Were . Wretchedly clad) were constantly
complaining of cold. All these diseomforts.and dis
advantages, together, with , a scarcity, of books, of
necessity, provoked more.or less restlessness and
disorder, requiring the constant vigil of the
teacher.
Still, at the dab of .My school I .felt that the
majority of my pupils had made real progress in
intellectual discipline; and as I tried to make all
my instructions subserve moral culnire, I trust
,:heir higher natured had received a corresponding
development; indeed, - many of ' them, had they
the opportunity, would make fine scholars, and
I think earnest, noble characters.
Daring the long, evenings, with, the assistance
of two of the most advanced day scholars, I con
ducted' a larganight- school. These night pupils
arelaborfeg men and women, who are employed
through , the day, and can only, command this
night-time for mental improvement.
Many,of these could read well. I noticed all
the men who.had• been in the army had learned
to read there, and were‘noW anxious to write and
learn the use of figures. They would conic per
haps but a few weeks; then a job of work would
carry them-out of. town, and we would see no
thing more of them; but wherever they go they
carry their-book, and being provident of what
they learn,,after a time they are not only reading
from their school-books, but aro reading the
newspapers, and not only writing . the alphabet
in-their copy-books, but are writing letters to
their, distant friends, and have passed from learn
ing the multiplication table to reckoning up
their accounts to,eee if they have been dealt by
honestly.
All, pretenders and non-professors,are extreme
ly ambition& to read the Bible. Many of them,
through all their, day, of toil, in some under-out
of-the-way-pocket, will carry a little old Testa
ment, so soiled and worn by use, that with clean
ly bands you could. scarcely bare.to touch it. Yet
you can see bow its owner has,vained it,; study
ing it over and over. *ale, perhaps spelling it
out word by word; The"aged will say to yon, "It
we could only.read the Bible and , hymn book, it's
all the learning we would ask."- 'Arid when you
readin their faces bow earnestly. they:desire to
ponces this art, and see,too,that God has given
them.an intellect possessing every faculty feces
sary`for Its acanisition, and then,. remember that
by anedict of law, this 'privilege had been with
held from them,-while' generations have pissed
away—you may have some faint conception of
the deprivation and wrong -which these people
have antlered. • ; - • • •
The colored people seem to accept the mission
ary teachers -:as , their divinely appointed in
structors and helpers, hence they feel , thp great
est freedom in Galling npoli them for aid or coun
sel, as their cases may deniand:
The government imposed quite a tax upon us
by way of writing "ration papers." The winter
was 'herd; labor was' scarce, and' money scarcer
still. The government, to meet tbe needs of the
old and sick, issued rations through the latter
part of the winter and spring, requiring of the
applicant a paper from the teachers, certifying
that they were needy and worthy of government
aid. This, of course, involved a good deal of in
vestigation upon our part to secure us against
impesition, for the applicants were not only those
who needed help, but we were beset by the indo
lent and avaricious, who would come with their,
smooth stories of poverty, widowhood and a
famity Of children to support, so that it required
patience and wisdom to know just how to deal
with all these different cases.
Ido not think, however, the colored people
are any more-given to deception in this particu
lar than any other class in a similar condition.
Those who have to do with benevolent societies
know that yon have the same class here—you
have it everywhere; it only proves the one nature
running through thetwhole human family. As we
had time and strength, we vieited.among the poor
and sick, and,
_so far as we could, relieved their
necessities. Many sad yet interesting histories
were given us by this class of persons. The
burden of their stories would be something like
this: They bad had years of toil on a distant
plantation,their children had all been sold South;
they had prayed year after year to be delivered
from their bondage; finally the war came, and
then the proclamation of freedom. With broken
shackles and with great joy,under the protection
of the Union army, they left their owners and
came into town; but the younger, stronger peo
ple took all the work, and they, old , and feeble,
had no one to help them. The shackles, though
broken, still bound and fettered these poor crea
tures, so that the proclamation seemed no bless
ing to them. Yet they will always say, with
exultation, "I'se free, -bless-the-Lord for that."
I, Shall never forget old Aunt Charlotte, to whom
permit me to give you an introduction. She
came to our house on a cold winter's day, and
asked for help; I, being at liberty, went to attend
to her wants.
She at once interested me; the way she sat in
her chair, her whole manner and her style of
talking reminded, .me of the "old time gentle
folk." She bad klittle, shriveled face that wore
an expression,of earnestness and suffering. About
her delicate person she wore two or three outside
wrappings, that hung en.. suchgrotesque style
that I wished some artist could place her picture
on canvass. Ouriervant gave mo° an Introduc
tion, adding she was a -- nice old lady. I said:
Well, Aunt Charlotte, what do you need ?
where do you live ? and how do you take care of
yourself ?
She told her story with such an air of truthful
ness that it forbade all questioning and won my
fullest confidence. "She lived alone in a' South
ern kitchen—the room was 'very open and cold.
She thought the people did not value it very
highly, for they had never called upon her for
rent. She had been sick a long time with broken
bone fever, and had suffered greatly from cold
and hunger."
From a box of clothing sent me by Philadel
phia friends, I gave her such things as I thought
she needed—then wrote a note to Major Reming
ton, of the Freedmen's Bureau,asking for rations,
which were duly granted. This was more
than The oldand - ihe l'ult -she
could never express sufficient gratitude. She
would often call at the house, and always repeat
the eamething: '"You have done me so much
good. lam warm now, and always have some
thing In my house to eat. I used to be so hun
gry. I hope I shell get stronger now; then I can
work again, and I shall get along better."
I learned that she had been the house servant
of an aristocratic Southern family; that her ori
ginal owners were dead, and now, as she could
be of no service to their descendants, they had
no interest in her; that her only boy had been
sold away years ago;that her husband, while living
had managed to earn enough to support them
comfortably. bet had died some two years since,
leaving, her old and feeble, with not where to lay
her head. This woman is the representative'of a
easiLlthoin•weirled tO comfort and help,though
tlair future looked as dark tons as it did to thorn.
They ate persons who have borne the heat and
*runt ofalairely—their spirits have been subdued
int* a S p it of mate endurance, and their faces
wear an expression of meek resignation and of
hope long deferred, Their "promised land" is
not of earth—they must wait until they have
crosse d the river.- God grant there are better
things for them on the other side.

I could tell you ofr.other !canes of suffering;

crowded into tenement houses, have almost no
idea of .a healthful,: hotne,influencet hence -this
Class to which I refer aro crude and undeveloped.
They are generally industrious, bat Improvident,
and ready to fall into reckless habits.
Yet these are the very persons the men 'and
women, who aro to shape the social, civil and re
ligions life of this race. To get power over this
younger class of, people, and thereby . exercise a
healthful restrain upon them, we held what we
_termed temperance meetings. At Wean Meetings

mere base than that which :their fathers had suf-i
feted , under the old regime of. slavery. - We drew
our- strongest lessons from' the Word of. God,
making it as emphatic as.peossible by illustrations
from the life about na. +Many of .our.pupils gave
np the use of tobacco and liquor, pledging them
selves never to use ;it agaim , •and never
to indulge in loose or:' profane lan
guage. By way of encouragement, we would
induce these-persons to talk in our meetings, so
'that they would stand committed to the advocacy
of truth and right living.
In the Sisters prayer-meeting, Where I read the
Scriptures, I. always felt impressed with the duty
of making,practical Christianity the basis of
every lesson. We trust these instructions will
receive the blessing of the Master and result in
some good to the people. I think as pleasant a
work as we performed •was in connection with
the Baptist. Sunday Schools of Portsmouth.
There are two quite flourishing Baptist churches,
one numbering about five and the other three
lit ndn d•naembere. E. G. Corprew, the pastor
of the larger church, is in part sustained by the
11. 153lision. You may have noticed his name
id some of their monthly rtports. He has an in
teresting personal history, and I think is destined
td be a powerful leader antong his people, not
only religiously but pelitically. He is a man in
middle life—has no mingling of white blood in
his veins, and was a slave nntU the , Union army
took possession of Portsmouth.
;He spent the earlier part •of his life, from the
time he was 11 years old until his manhood, in
the shingle swamps of Southern Virginia. At 11,
by some means begot possession of , a spelling
hook, and making friends with his master's
,young son, he received flue.. him Buell instrne
-1 Lion as soon enabled him toread and , spell. This
Reeceriplisked, his next desile and purpose was to
I I learn how to write. He obtained a piece of paste
-1 beard,and upon this his youthful instructor wrote
1 the alphabet. Of course all these things had to
be done secretly, and the slave boy had to use a
good deal uf management to make any real pro
gtess in his efforts. His lodging place was a
Southern kitchen, where ho slept upon a slab in
front of a great open fire-place. Cdtters occupied
the same room, and alter all were quiet and
asleep Young Cornrow' would get up, take a coal
freer the fire, and neon this slab carefully copy
from the pasteboard, always having a wet cloth
ready to wipe out all trace of his night's work.
Thus he learned to write. As he grew older he
became more and more interested in books, add
especially in the studies of the Bible. By over
work he would earn a little money,which he spent ,
in buying books that,could eid him in the study
of the Scriptures. Among his first purchases
were Josephns, Clark's Commentaries, The Life
of Christ arid His Apostles, and' a Bible Diction
ary. ]These books were kept out of sight and he
was obliged to study them stealthily. In the
meantime he married, jived with his wife but a
sliest lithe When she was sold away,, leaving one
• child. Since then he had never known a shred
,of her history. After a while he was separated
from the child, but never lost a knolledge of
him, and as soon as the father became free, he
got possession of the boy, who, is now about
seventeen and pursuing his studies With marked
I success.
As Mr. Cornrow became more competent in la
bor, and showed decided
tors, he Was placed on board:si Lighter that ran
tram the neighborhood of this shingle swamp to
Norfolk. He was expected to transact all busi
ness, and make correct returns to those who bad
entrusted him with their commodities. This he
did so satisfactorily that the people would give
the preference to his Lighter rather than others
that ran down the river. I do not remember just
how longhe occupied this position, but after a
while be induced'his owner to allow him to hire
himself,paying to the master a stated amount for
his time, and for several years before the war, he
enjoyed this partial freedom, making his home
in Portsmouth,where he became a member of the
church of which he is tow pastor.
He gave me a little incident which was so full
of significance, showing the undercurrent of
fLeling on the part of master and slave, that I
will tell it here. Ho is eXtremely conscientious,
and I doubt not met all his engagements with his
owner with the strictest fidelity. After the vear
broke out, there was a vast amount of covered
excitement, which master and slave were very
careful to keep hidden from each other.
Things, of course, were soon jostled out of their
old adjustments, and when the wages were due
for this hired time, there had not been money
I enough earned to meet the payment. Mr. Con
prew decided to go and pay what he had, and
as soon as possible earn the remainder. He went
to see his master in the morning, and found that
he was still in bed. He went to his room, where
• he stile d bow the matter stood with him—that
ho had not been able to earn the whole amount,
but that he would do so as soon as possible.
The man, overcome by this pent-up excite
ment which the war had fomented, sprang from
his bed and exclaimed, "You dog! you want to be
free; that's the trouble with you." Said Mr. Cor
prew—"l could not lie, and all I could say was
—but I am not flee; I know, master, that I am
not free." boon after this, owever, the Union
army wholly released him from bondage. He
was gifted in prayer and exhortation, and was
an acknowledged leader in the church. In 1862
be preached his first sermon at the • funeral of a
colored refugee. In 1864 the Baptist teachers en
tered Portsmouth. He at once pat himself
under their instruction, studying and reciting as
he could get opportunity; often, as his wife told
me, studying far into the night. I think in 1865
be was ordained, under the auspices of the
Baptist Home Mission, and regularly installed as
pastor of his present church.
'lt has been interesting to watch the gradual
development of his powers. I saw, him in 1864;
indeed, I think - I
was his,first teacher. Since then
he hae taken long strides' in the right direetion.
He is entirely devoted to the elevation of his peo
ple. He watches with keenest interest every
movement at Washington, and will tell you with
shrewd discrimination the , probable result of
every enactment relative to the interests of his
race. The people, white as well as colored, look
up to him as- the -strongest colored man in the
city. We often hear this remark: "If such a per
son could have had advantages, they would have
been superior." Here is a man, in spite of every
adverse circumstance, standing before us, intel
ligent, fret of a manly conrage,and with a single
ness of purpose that gives him poweroiot only
over those for whom ho labors, but with the In
finite Father who supplies him with needed wis
dam, for the emergencies of his time and
,place.
The two ladies with whom I was associated and
who have been upon the field for a •long time,
have labored more especially with Mr.C.'e church,
being somewhat under the patronage of the H.M.
Board. I commenced my labors there, but as -
there came a reguesffrom the other church that
one ohm should come and help them, I took the
new field. I found the pastor of the church to be
latiorEg-inan,-ivorkilig-ato4reZe dttifttg - the
week and on the Sabbath preaching to this Ports
month church and two countrythurches. He'had
formerly been a slave, bad a straightforward ear
nestness about him, with a good degree of native
talent, but was wholly uneducated, could read
passably well, and that was all, He had really
no time to devote to the Sabbath School, and it
amounted to only a handfull of pupils; with a ail
perintenden t and, I think, , two teachere. The
Superintendent could not read the Scriptures in
telligently, and the teachers,, of coarse, were no
better qualified for their respective, duties.- -
Here these people were struggling as best they
could, but making no progress. - '
Just before I entered the school a colored man
from the other church came over to help them,
and did a very efficient outside service, inducing
children and adults to join the school. The in
struction of the entire school devolved almost
wholly upon me, and I often had the pastor as a
listener. The school gradually increased in mos..-
hers and interegt,and on the first Sabbath of July
it numbered 150; since then they Write me it has
increased to 200.' When I 'parted from these
people they not only expressed regret, bit real
sorrow, and with weeping begged of me to re

we had so fully the confidence of the colored
people, we were looked upon 'very - differently by
the whites. Although we had in our midst, pro
feasedly, peepleef strong radical proclivities, we
never received the least sympathy or encourage
ment in our work from any Southern white per
sdn; but, on the contrary, we were looked upon
Vilth great disfavor, and our work branded as low
and mean.
We were always treated with politeness; but
underneath it all was a most unyielding preju
dice. They looked upon us as working to up
heave and overturn their old and time-honored
sqcial institutions; and although they are con
stantly asserting that you cannot educate and
elevate the negro,they elm* the greatest concern
a*d jealOusy, lest by and by they shall find him
standing upon ,the same social and civil platform
wlth , themseltree. We met an illustiation of their
ptsjudice when we were driven to the necessity
of housekeeping. If was with great difficulty
that wo could rent a house, There were houses
enough, but they would not rent to teachers of
colored schools.
. . . . . _
?The lady with whom the teachers boarded last
year was a Northern lady, the wife of the Presi
siding Elder Of that district, and attended the
only white. Union church In town. Same of the
fist members of that church ceased to call upon

to board "'Jigger teachbrs." This is the sympathy

Now to Fricasec a Chicken. There are no fami
lies where a chicken is not occasionally served in
fricase,e. I owe therefore a first-class recipe.
One of the bases of the French cuisine, the
classic chicken-fricasee has been explained in all
the kitchen-Dispensaries of the nation with the
utmoi,t detail. I Conform to the nsage.
!Chicken-Fricasee. The chickens being quickly
singed, then cut up, you soak the pieces in water
for an hour, taking care to renew the latter twice
or thrice ;'then take out the morsels, wash, drain
carefully, place in cold water and cook; as soon as
tlie water - hash - bad take MT, saucepan, pas;},,,
the liquid through a strainer, preserve it and drain
the bits Of - chicken. '
Now commences the work inearnest.
:On the bottom of a saucepan laid on the fire
place, put .a bit of butter,'a little chopped salt
pork fat, and a entail slice of ham. As soon ,as
the butter melts add the bits of chicken and fry
them a few minutes: as soon as they commence
to harden superficially, dredge them, while con
tinuing to fry, with a heaping spoonful of flour,
then draw the saucepan to the edge of the , , fire,
td add the reserved Water mixed, with an equal
volume ~of soup-stock; season with pot-herbs
and glioP PedLordon-
Placing the saucepan over the fire again, take
off the scum which vvill rise, and on boiling cover
with a lid. Three quarters of an hour will antllce
fox the cooking, , The fiance la to he thickened
with three yolks of eggs stirred in while boding;
then take immediately from the fire, remeve the
chicken, Stir the sauce over the fire again, adding
a 'sprinkle of vinegar, pour upon the chicken and
serve. ,
JThere,..with every kind of detail, I give yon
honest recipe for an excellent dish winch is noth:

TALLAHASSEE, Nov. 7.—About 9 o'clock last
night, citizens to the number of 100 or more were
Bemoaned by the city and county authorities to
hold themselves in readiness to aid in quelling
any riots. At 11 P. AL there being no indica
tions Of trouble, the posse was discharged. The
cause of the call was the conflicting orders from
Governor Reed and Lieutenant-Governor Gies
eon. The citizens are uneasy to-day, and will
not interfere except to aid to preserving the
peace, when prompt assistance will be rendered.
The Legislature adjourned this morning until
January. - No quorum was present when the im
peachment resolutions were passed. Several
members held seats and voted whose teats had
been declared vacant by the proclamation of thb
Governor by reason of the members accepting
and occupying other official positions.

of the body, and declares it illegal. Lieutenant

DASII4Ing .411- Biarritz.
There are Cored bathing establishments
here. The largest 'and favorite one, on the
smooth sands near the Iniperial Villa, where,
owing to the-,constant-rolls of• the Atlantic
waves, swimming is almost impossible;
another at the Vienx Porte, a sheltered cover
where one can swim shout with the greatest
ease and safety; ' and a third on the sands at
the otherside of the toWn. Every precaution
is taken avoid accidents, and 'at each place
a boat :is alwayi Stationed in front of the
bathers,ln case tiny inexperietteed` swimmer
should ght out of-his depth, or, be seized with
i l a
cramp. he fashionable times for, bathing
are from to 10.3,0 in the morning, and from
3.30 to 6 the afternoon; when the sea in
front of a these bathing establishments looks
quite aliv withluman beings, some swim
ming,- some plunging , into or jumping up . to
meet the waves, some floating with
huge guaris to, buoy ,. them up
in the water, otheia ' Aaking lessons
,
in swimming' from the' numerous
baign6ure , iu constant attendance here. As
the sexes blithe quite indiscriminately, all are
of course dressed in full costume. Borne wear
stravchata,, or have gaily-colored, handlter
chiefis 1161 round their heads,' end; the tong
trousers and jackets are often of the brightest
hues of the rainbow. This bathing is by no
means an expensive luxury; a hex to dress in,
toWeli, =frill 'costume,' and a' .warm bath
to wash the sand from , the feet
after bathing, can' all be had fol.
theaniall sum of stxpenee;and 'for an extra
half-franc-the timid or inexperienced can se
cure the services of a Octigneur to attend
them in the water. These xnen, who are all
fine, tall, well-made fellows, dressed in red or
blue flannel,"are 'principally employed in
bathing ; ladies - and children, and • teach
ing them to swim. Their kindnesa
and tenderness to delicate , little children
who dread the water—the way'in which they
coax them in, and change into a pleasure
what had been looked forward to as a terror,
is pleasant to witness- and an agreeable con
trast to the somewhat rough usage which
some of us remember to have received from
that bete noire •of all juveniles at English
watering places----the much-dreaded bathing
woman. The bathers at Biarritz remain a
very long time in, the water, and generally
bathe twice a day, morning and afternoon.
At 10.30 all the world breakfasts, and then
passes its time lounging . at cafes, or strolling
over sands and rocks till abont four or five,
when everybody bathes agaiu. Dinner is at
six, after which the gay throng adjourns to
the casino, or walks up and down the prin
cipal street, which is as thronged every
evening as the boulevards of Paris.--L-London
