The emancipation of the slave in Westchester County was iiiidoubtedly less a blessing to him than to his owner. Whatever may be the experience now in the more genial climate of the South, as to the elevation. happine.ss and increase of the colored race, after the recovery of its freedom, the result here was most disastrous. It was not, however, to the disadvantage of the master, for certain is it that the Westchester agriculturalist found himself called to more intelligent and remunerative tillage when relieved of the scarcely profitable help of his bondman.
