It should be specially recommended to the deparinient superintendent, in the set-1 (lenient of all personal difficulties between ; these people, to act as arbitrator rather than as formal judge adopting the general principle governing courts of conciliation.

In the above reeomiuenuatiens as to .be mode of appointing subordinate offi cers, the Commission are influenced by their convictions that it is a priuciplo of great practical importance iu aduiinistra- . r . . r, ,, ,, live organizations; that upon all olhcers .to whom subordinates are immedintely re-sponsible should be thrown, as tar as pru-uence permits, the responsibility, by thu selection of such subordinates, of having about them only men of character and of proper qualifications. When a workman has choice of tools, he cannot throw tho blame of bad workmanship upon them. The Couimissiou here desire to record their profound conviction that upon the judicious selection of department superintendents and of Supcrintendent-tlencral cf l'reeduieu, will mainly depend the sun-cessful practical workings of the above sketched plan of organization. The African race, accustomed to shield itself hy ounuiug and evasion, and by shirking of work, whenever it can be safely shirked, against the oppression which hat been its lot for generations, is yet of genial nature, alive to gratitude, open to impiessions of kindness, aud more readily influenced aud led by those who treat it Well aud gain coufiuencn than our race, or perhaps than any other. The wishes and iecpir.ii.enda-ticus of Government, if they ore not hursbiy eiiferetu, but quietly communica ted by those who understand and fympa-th.zc wnh the African nature, will be received aud obeyed as commends in almost every instance. It is highly important therefore, that, those who havo iu charge tho interests of these frecdmen shall be , men n0 onPy 0f udmiuistrativo ability, but ' kso of couifrehousivo bcnovoleuce aud humanitarion views.
