different this scene is from what
we have in the South when our

paeans of triacipb, and the laurel
a solemn and saving truth.

whom they bow with all humili

It is impossible to report the
major's speech in full. He con
gatulated evervbodv'on the de
struction of African slavery and
said he knew of nobody who re
gretted it; but with all its eyils
it had proved a providential
school for the training of the
negroes; it was great nonsense
to say, as some Northern men
do, that it had brutalized them;
it had really transformed a race
of barbarians into civilized men,
christianized and elevated them
until they were deemed worthy
and fit to become citizens and
suffragers of this enlightened
country. Strange . brutalizing,
