• An interesting scene occurred yesterday.
• A little white boy, about twelve years old,
with his two - brothers, nice, intelligent
looking children as I ever saw, came to my
room for shoes. I could not believe they
were-very needy, so I refused them. Later
in the day they came back with a note from'
their aunt, stating, that they were really
needy, and that' they had no shoes since
Christmas. Upon inquiry z fogind this to be
the fact. I also discovered that I had migc
taken.their cleanliness of person for comfort:
They were really scantily clad. i ques
tioned them very closely and further dis
covered that they belonged to that chugs of
Southern, poor whites, who living amidst
the healthful and inspiring industry and
intelligence'of a Penneylvania or Ohio
lage 'would soon becoine thrifty and inde
pendent. 'got one'of these boys could read
or write.-' I asked them if they went to
school. The oldest one burst into tears, and
in 'a sobbing voice said, "I don't know any
school to go to." • '
It is quite a . task to distribute the shoes
properly. I could soon give them away. I
have refused a great many. white and Meek.
On Saturday I had to station a guard at the
door, and let only one in Oa time. Some
went. away "with sour faces, and I shall
probably, in some quarters , earn ' the repu
tation of a "mean fe ll ow.' If I was certain
of coming back in the fall, I should box up
the rest of the things and keep them until
next :winter.

General Agent Freedmen's Aid . Conands
sion of Western Pennsylvania, &c.
FLORENCE, ALA., Atril. 21, 1868.
DEAR Ms. TaavEnia—lhave been so
pressed for time that, •until now, it has been
impossible to write you expressing Thanks
to the, friends at iconomy for the seeds.
They were distributed among,the poor irre
spective of color; but, of course, nearly all
went to the freedmen. The Mae onions
particularly, were really a precious gift:
No more acceptable donation at this time
could have been made. They were really
fine; the finest I believe I ever saw. There
were very few to be had here, even for
money; I could have sold all of them for
fifty cents per quart., _
I could give many interesting facts con
nected with the distribution of these seeds,
but scarcely deem it necessary to say more
than that they were received by the freed
men with many most heartfelt thanks.
Here, as elsewhere in the South, there are
scores-of old people whose best years were
spent in unrequited toil, and whose vitality
withered away under the blighting curse of
slavery, and who now are not only poor
and destitute, but have not the physical
Strength to do hard labor. Those of the
freedmen who are strong and hearty do
work, and, of course, with all • the diseour
agements and hard times down here, do
make out tO' get enough to eat and some
kind of clothes to wear.
And here let me say that when I say hard
tunes, I mean hard times indeed. The most
_industrious _and shrewdest of men find it
difficult to live here, so entirely prostrate is
the South at this time. A "live Yankee"
— ThiiiiTerniont -- would_ need all his wits to
thrive'-here;-and 'if-before six months he
did not have recourse to the manufacture
• of "wooden nutmegs" and "wooden hams,"
hie...integrity might be regarded as having
stooda severe test.- ,
ManYrecipients of, the ls'te
them old onsofm rWtrnetl

eight and ten miles, to get tbem.l One old
Rheumatic diseases and the
'-fellow who goes by the sobriquet bf "uncle
GUN" deserves special attention. lie is the
most pitiable bundle of deformed human'-
ty I ever saw.
abuses of Slavery have left him what he is,
' 1 the mere Wreck of a man. He is about.
~ eighty years old and has no kindred in the
'.• , . world that he knoWs of. A family almost
1
as pool- as himself, allow him to, stay with
them, abOut six miles in the country. It
takes uncle Gib two dap to make the jour
-4" ney to town' and back, a fact over which the
old gentleman sometimes feels merry.
1• Hearing that I had some clothing and seeds,
he came to see me. Unfortunately the
clothing was all gone, but I gave him some
of the seed, and little onions and two dol
• lam in money, Upon receiving the gifts
his demonstrations of joy were what we
might have expected had he drawn "Pike's
Opera House." Uncle Gib said to me that
they must be mighty good people "up dar"
to think "miff of we po or black folks as to
tinge." send us all dese mo. He says he is only
a •.poor old "broken stick" anyhow and
only waits "till de good Lord ails for
The
him."
And thus I might go on mentioning other
cases about or quite as sad. One woman
whom I aided, claims. to have been born
free in Georgetown,. D: U. Prom-her- state
ments and from her familiarity with things
about Washington, as well as from the fact
that two or three cases of kidnapping were
exposed here, it is not unlikely that her
story is true. There are two Zithers here
that tell me they were born free in the bor
der Statmi,tind that they were stolen away •
while young. . -
I am not mire that in me you tette here a
wise disposer of your charities. The exhi
bition of wretchedness which one is com
pelled to seeamong the -freedmen is har
rowing:: am by . ' no means sure that I
'have not frequently. a ft er li stening to the
sad story and beholding the suffering, given
two nandfutr, when a judicious regard for
the welfare of all, should have prompted
me to give but one.
And - here it is in point to say it gives me
much pleasure in walking about the vll
- mid vicinity to notice the thriving lit- ,
tie garden patches of the poor, many of
which I know to have, been p lanted with
the semis sent to us by the friends at Econ.

True Mayor of Cincinnati recommends a
large suburban park, saying that relaxation,
surrounded by nature in her most beautiful
robes, is imperatively neepsuutry to all who
are compelled to live in a crowded city. It
would make the people happier and better,
and materially reduce the custom of the
grog shops. He also urges the setting a part
of it aside for a free public base-ball and
cricket ground, being lUlly satisfied that the
more we expend in providing recreations of
this Lind for the people, the less will be our
bills of mortality and the shorter our records
of crime. Such places of free resort would
materially thin the ranks of that numerous
class of young men who now resort to
the many disreputable places with which all
great cities' abound. He also wants a free
library and city hall, to be used as a free
assembly room, large enough to contain
3,000 persons. •
Tim latest advices received in England
from Australia intimate that the assassina
tion of the Duke of Edinburg was atte.mpt
ed by O'Farrell in pursuance of messages
sent from conspirators in England, which
oidered the Prince's death. It is under
stood that O'Farrell was selected by lot to
perpetrate the crime, and that the attempt
would have been made when the Prince
landed, but that an opportunity of doing so
without risk of injury to others did not oc
cur. - The New South Wiles gsivernment
offered £l,OOO rewarn for the apprehension
of each fkix)mplice and one arrest, consid

SIR RoBERT 'NAPIER is lionized in the
English papers for his victory in Abyssinia.
He has already been honored with, the
Grand Cross of the Bath, and is to receive a
pension of $5,000 a year. It is supposed
that he will be offered a peerage, which he
will probably be obliged to decline, having
many children and slender fortune. He
will receive from. Parliament the usual pen
sion for three lives, and will succeed Sir W.
Mansfield as commander-in-chief in India.
