The Toledo Commercial comments thus on
something which it saw in the Northwest :
The pictures well illustrate the great fact
of Emancipation, which marks so important
an era iu our nation's history. Millions of
poor bond men and bond women have under
the invitation and guaranty of the the Gov
ernment, thus turned their step3 toward the,
genius of Liberty, and not in vain. They
may Leas "pretty," in the sense meant by
our exchange, but they constitute the grand

but it will long challenge the admiration and
joy oi the mends oi freedom everywhere.

: They were not fit for freedom ; but it was
forced on them. - They now go out into the
struggle of life, and in competition with the
shrewdest, most energetic, most unscrupulous,
ayarious ana remorseless race oi people on
the globe. For this is the character of the
Yankeeized Anglo Saxons. Their old mas
ters, who might have given them compassion,
if not charity, are impoverished ; and now as a
race, the black are paupers. Without in
dustry, save when constrained; without am
bition : without skill : without . education
destitute in a word of every capability for the
new career assigned them, they are turned
out to perish. Manila., no more falls from
heaven .to succor the starving; alms-houses
are not built for a whole race. Though das
titution, disease, crime and suffering, the
black man must follow the red man to ex
tinction. '
You give him freedom; you purpose to
give him the ballot. But these will not give
him bread, nor give him shelter, nor give
im clothing, nor give him brains."
Had the negro been the white nan's equal,
slavery could not have existed, or could not
have been perpetrated for any considerable
time. Honest Republicans have treated the
question as they would have treated it had
it been a question between two races in intel
lect and in every sort; of capability. This
was their fatal error. Who could emancipate
all the children under ten years of age ? turn
them out of doors, and forbid parental con
trol under severe penalty? And yet such an
act wTould not be so cruel and so. murderous
as that we are considering ; for such of the
children as survived would be able to take
care of themselves when they arrived at ma
ture years. For the negro there is no matu
rity. However ferocious in passion, or bru
tal in strength) he is and must indefinitely
remain a child in intellect.
Emancipation was an enormous crime ; a
crime agaiust the country, for it destroyed its
chief source of wealth ; but more than all
it was crime against the simple, dependent
confiding people whom it has destroyed.
Illinois, who when the French withdrew, had
abandoned their assylum and retreated down
the river.
The Iroquois, still, it seems, in awe of them,
followed them along the opposite bank, each
night encamping face to face with them ; and
thus the adverse bands moved slowly south ward,
till they were near the mouth of the river.
Hitherto the compact array of the Illinois had
held her enemies in check; but now, suffering
from hunger and lulled into security by the as
.surances of the Iroquois that their object was
not to destroy them, but they rashly separated
the Mississippi, some, more prudent, crossed
to the western side. One of their principal
tribes, the Tamaroas, more credulous than the
rest, had the fatuity to remain near the mouth
of the Illinois, where they were speedily assail
ed by all the force of the Iroquois. The men
fled, and very few of them were killed ; but the
women and children were c.ip'ured to theum

THE CHINESE.
The opening of the Pacific Railroad, the
demand for labor at the South, the desire for
nimbler hands and less voracious appetites in
the factories, have turned the attention of
speculators to the, teeming populations of the
East. TKey find these warm and fertile
countries densely crowded with a patient, de

they seem content. 1 hey work trom daylight J in such sales whether debtor or creditor
