423 CHAPTER LX.
ALABAMA PLANTERS.
The Alabama River steamers resemble those of the Missis- sippi, although inferior in size and style. But one meets a very different class of passengers on board of them. The Alabamians are a plain, rough set of men, not so fast as the Mississippi-Valley planters, but more sober, more solid, more loyal.

I found the most contradictory characters among them..., which I cannot better illustrate than by giving some specimens of their conversation.
Here is one of the despairing class. " Che country is ruined ; not only the Southern country, but the Northern country too. The prosperity of our people passed away with the institution of slavery. I shall never try to make another fortune. I made one, and lost it in a minute. I had a hun- dred and fifty thousand dollars in niggers. I am now sixty years old. I '11 bet a suit of clothes against a dime, there '11 be no cotton crop raised this year.
