TU"Signal."—We notice l«y the
l.i.st number of this paper, that tho
lato editor, Kuward Bailey, Ksrj., has
leased out "the concern" and (limit-
ted for a season, from the editorial
fraternity, to enter upon a more lu-
crative business, that of practicing
law. Mr. Geo. F. Cook is the new
editor. JIo produces a good paper,
which gires evidence that the Signal
will lose none of its former vivaci y
and usefulness. We winli the new
editor much success. Mr. Cook will ly interest us as a people ] All is not
"croak" about it ? Suppose "the
country is ruined, ' the "croakers''
will be the last men to save it. We
saw a very judicious account the oth-
er day of the motives that actuated
England in her policy in our late
great struggle. According to that
writer, it would seem, that tho Eng-
lish abolitionists wanted emancipation
iu the South, so that her India pos-
sessions could compete with us in tho
cottou markets, it looks so reasona-
ble that we do not doubt it. If then
we are hurt, let us be a little circum
spcet in our complaining lest it ticklu
somebody. Would it not bo a good
plan to start Farmer's Clubs and
Agricultural Societies in all our coun-
ties and neighborhoods so as to shod
light upon the matters which so deep

A Little Fire.—On Mohday laut,
during a brit-k norther, the tall grass
in tho court houno yard caught fire,
by aoine manner of means, and in a
few mom en tB tho whole south side of
the yard was burnt over. Fortunate

suppose, is the first "new burn" this

Died.—A few days ago, Richard
Moore died at his residence near this
place aged about Or> years. "Uncle
Dickey" waB a good, kind-hearted
man and a Christian. He had been
for many years a member of the
Primitive Baptist denomination. A
few days previous to his death, the
grand-daughter of his wife, a little
girl whom he had recently brought
from eastern Texas, also died, aged
about ten years. It looks as if
troubles never come alone. Mrs.
Moore has the heart-felt sympathy of
many friends and acquaintances.
{:r The Breuham Iwjulrcr says
that the Germans of that place are
about to establish a first-class school,
in which Loth English and German
will be taught. Three hundred dol-
lars have already been subscribed.—
The Inquirer says that lumber is very
scarce and in great demand there. It
is equally so here. The Inquirer
further says :
There are five white men, two ne-
gro men and one negro woman, now
confined in jail. Of the white men,
one is iu for murder, three for bur-
glary, and one for larceny. One of
the negro men i> in for theft, and tin-
other for an assault with uu axe with
intent to kill. Tho woman, for
theft.

all accounts agree in the statement
that tho negroes nix* less disposed to

laborers, it is generally ^believed have

with the grown Hack population, the

it can possibly be avoided. The
country will eventually have to look
to another character of labor.

San Fisura, Jan. 7th, 18fi7.
Ed. Countryman :
Tho joyous festivities of anothcr
Christmas are past, and 1SG7 is upon
u.'. It is now a good time to reflect
upon the follies and faults of tho past
and, with becoming repentance, put
• ni the harness lor the conflicts of the
future. Ate wo a wiser people, than
we. were twelve mouths ago í If]
remember aright, we were then up
piohonsivo of an uprising of tin
"Loyal Freedmen," so c<ilh</, for the
purpose of carrying out their peculiar
agrarian principles. That danger
over, then came contracting, and
feeding—plowing, planting, hoeing,
raining, slothing, weeding, and the
worms. What a tiiuo we had of it !
Trouble and care and distress met us
on every hand. The planters had
suffered the loss of their slaves by
emancipation. Thus at one dash we re
swept away, tho fruits of a lifetime's
toil, and the bequests of provident
parents nud friends, and the men of
enterprise, who but yesterday had
thousands at command, go forth iu
the world poo and penniless. Some
expatriate themselves and leave ••The
I .and We I .ove" in quest of better
homes and a brighter prospect. Bad
policy ! The waves of old earth's
commotions are wry high, and there
are no shores, the breakers will not
icach. Others cast about and begin
to gather up the fragments, and with
energy and /.cal, set about to make
tin best of their misfortunes. The
lawyi r and tho physician now hunt
up their old long neglected profes-
sions. Merchants and factors spring

Washington City, Dec. 11,18GG.
Eds. Bulletin—I htivo found by
intercourse and conversation with tho
masses throughout the North, that
they are far-tnoru Radicul iu all mat-
ters relating to tho reorganization of
the late rebel States than the poli-
ticians and members of Congress.
They are determined that tho fruits
of tho victory over slavery and re-
bellion shall not be lost. They have
become impressed with the conviction
that emancipation cannot bo carried
out in good faith unless the freedmen
are armed with tho ballot, and that
reconstruction to be effective must bo
entrusted to thoso only who are faith-
ful and loyal to the principles under
which the rebellion was overthrown.
I arrived here on Tuesday morning
last and have been very active in try-
ing to ascertain tho temper and dis-
position of the members of Congress.
I now feel very certain, that all
present rebel State Governments will
be dispensed with at an early day,
that their places will bo supplied by
some temporary governments, prob-
ably military, for tho preservation of
virtue, and that a law will be passed
to enable tho loyal people, white and
black, to hold couveutious nud form
State constitutions. I do not think
that the details of tho measure have
yet been matured, but these will bo
tho outlines of tho plan adopted. If
constitutions are adopted by such
conventions, that secure equal civil
and political rights to all loyal men
without regard to race or color, they
will be accepted by Congress, and the
States restored to t heir proper rela-
tions with tho Union. 1 think Iain
sustained in this opinion by the re-
cent action of both Houses. Iu the
District of Columbia election law—
yesterday afternoon, the Senate pass-
ed the law by a vote of .'J:.' to P¿, and
if the Scuato had been full, the vote
would have been ."G to 1G. This
morning tho bill wis reported to the
House and was immediately passed
by a vote of 117 to forty odd, the
precise vote 1 do not now recollect,
but you will see that it received large-
ly over two-thirds of each House, so
that a veto will not arrest tho meas-
ure, for it will at once be passed over
a veto.
Those best informed heio believe
that tho same principle in regard to
suffrage will be carried out in tho re-
organization of the late rebel States,
and this 1 have heard around by a
1 irgo number of members. Your
paper has obtained a reputation
throughout the Union, and is looked
to by the loyal every whero for cor-
rect information in regard toour State.
Paschal, ^Hamilton and Sherwood
are here, aud will remain most of tho
time during the session. I met with
Judge Roberts this morning, and
found him much disturbed by jhe
action of Congress on the suffrage
bill, lie told me that Judge Bur-
nett aud Eppcison were also here.—
Their credentials have been present-
ed, but 1 do not thiuk they will make
any further progress towards getting
iuto Congress.
