Sry Death of Henry Winter Davis. We announce with sincere regret the death of Hen. Henry Winter Davis, which oceurred in this city on Saturday afternoon. His death was unexpected, and in its suddenness will increase the regret that will be felt by a wide circle of personal friends, and by the Nation at large, to whom Mr. Davis was known as one of Our most earnest thinkers and eloquent ora- tors. But a few days since he was on our streets in his usual excellent health. A cold resulted ina severe attack of pneumonia, under which he rapidly sank. Mr. Davis was still young, he having been born at Annapolis in 1817. He graduated at Hampden Sidney College, adopted the profes- sion of the law, and at an early age he became prominent in political life. So long as the old Whig party existed he was an ardent and de- cided adherent to the principles andtraditions of that political organization. Subse muly he acted for a time with the American party, but pressed by their former masters, and to enlti- vate friendly relations between the two classes; to assist in the organization and mainteaance of schools; to discourage as far as possible the disposition of the freedmen to remove from one locality to another, except so far as it might be necessary for untting members of se. parated families, or to find profitable employ- ment. To urge upon them the importance of making con:racts for their inbor, and to fulfil the same when made, to aid them by their ad- vice when necessary to prevent their being defrauded; but in all other cases to leaye them free to make their own bargains. To furnish rations, medicines, and medical attendance for the helpless and destitute, not provided for by their former owners: but not lo issue rations to persons able to work, for whom employment could be found To require aesistant superintendents to keep registers of ail colored persons in their sub- districts, and to aid such in finding remanera- Uve labor. if, when labor was found for such persons, they neglected to avail themselves of it, they were to be treated as vagrants. Super- intendents were ordered, either themselves or through their assistants, to adjudicate upen all cAses arising between the freedmen themselves or between freedmen and whites, mclading crimes committed by the freedmen, in which penalty should not exceed imprisonment d labor for a period of three months, or a balsam, no mercury. 1. is the soldier's hope, and a friend to those who do Bot Want to be exposed, Male packages, $3; fe- SaMARiTan’s Root anp Hers Juices—A positive sieeve peta Pees , sy 5 ice 5 STOP THAT SORA’ ins, Bold by all Skit J.D.

Frcm the want of funds to employ civilians, the Burean has been obliged to depend, for the management of its affairs, simost exclusively, upon details of officers and then from the army. Some of these officers bave been eminently suceessinl in the discharge of their dnties, which are often very delicate and difficult. But many of there details have been of persons the creation of that public sentiment which en- abled Maryland to maintain her loyalty in the midst of the disaffection of the Border States, and through which she was Snaily cleansed, by her own act, of the pollution ef Slavery. Mr. Davis served eight years in Congress, having been elected to the House of Represen- tatives for three successive terms from the 4th (now the 3a) Congressional district of this State, and again representing the district in the Thirty-eighth Congress. i adi who bad little sympathy with the duties to GOVERNMENT DEPOSITORY mark in Congress.

But few Assistant Super:ten- dents have occupied their positions for three consecutive months, while in many eub-dis- tricts, the changes have been more frequent. Notwithstanding these onstacles to 2 uniform and efficient administration of the affairs of the Bureau, important progress has been made in the work undertaken. The irritation existing between the white and the freedmen immediately after the cessation of hostilities, has greatly abated, and instances of personal violence are becoming more rare. There is, however, much for the citizens to learn im regard to the best management of free Jabor, and much for the late slaves to learn in regard to their duties as treedmen. The attempt to introduce the contract fystem, £0 exeential to the re-organization of the ixbor of the States, is embarrassed by many difficulties. The mas'er has been unaccustomed to sustain to the la- borer the relation which this system ples, and seeks to retain by contract mu of the power which the slave formally gave bim, and the freedman has yet to learn properiy to appreciate the obligations which he assnmes in makipg a contract. A further embarrassment is found in the excess of laboring ulation over the supply of profitable labor. It is im- sible for the employees, given with the best intention, to give all the laborers such wages as their support and that of their families reguire. Itis believed that this evil cannot be wholly remedied without the emigration from the State of at least fifty thousand freedmen. The disposition to roam from place te place, and especially to leave the country for towns and camps, is almost entirely corrected; there is very little changing of location, except when necessary to provide the means of subsistence. They are geverally contepted with euch ar- Tangements for their services as ean be made, and on seeking bomes and employment that promise to be permanent Notwithstanding the many embarrasements under which the frurean has labored, it is lieved to have succeeded in promoting the wel ~ot = —_ in Ww eer gy trey Riga Swarr may and to have afforded important - PHILADELPHIA AND BartimonE OenTRat | ing good order in the Sine, — RaitRoap—This railroad has at length beea Whatever. success the Burean in this State been extended to the Rising Sun in Cecil conn- | may have achieved, is largely due to the cor- late residence, St, Paul street —Baitimore Amer- tean, Ist. WESTERN VIEWS OF A TaRrFr.—On the subject of protection for home manufacturers, the Chicago Republican says: “ltis seaeay reported that certain Republi- can members of Congress from the West have resolyed to oppose any alterations in the tariff calculated to secure domestic manufactnrers against the effects of foreign competition. Their idea is said to be that any alterations of this sort, while they might be eficial to Eastern capitalists, would be injurious to Western farmers. This is an old notion, indeed, we may say itis absolete. * * * But, here in the West, manufacturers are rapidly springing up, and the farmers are interested in their pro=perity and development almost as much as those who are directly concerned in them. We apprehend, accordingly, that any Western Representative who votes against such duties upon foreign wares as will save from destrnc- tion our Own infant iron mills, and woolem mills, flax mills, cotton mills, and the like, = find himself condemned by his constita- ents.” B* incre TLOUR, | PER BARREL, Extras and Supers, Best and Cheapest in the city.
