WEDNESDAY MORNING. NOVEMBER 10,

no man''-ncther does the mail train for wo-
man either. At this moment the starting time
arrived, the bell tolled, the engineer let on the
steam-the fireman grinned-the spectators
laughed-and on went the train, Wih the tin
Grant, but 'rithOm his victim. Then it was
that the force of the girls love broke FORTH
When she saw the gap every moment widen
ing between them, she could endure the thought
no longer, but set off with frantic speed IN full
chase after the corSi Some shouted some open
ed wide their eyes, some unfeelingly cried "put
on more steam my DEAR few pited the poor
girl. She soon found that her speed, even when
impclled by love, was not equal to the mail
train! She returned, detected and in tears, to
repeat the thought of the old poet, "the course
of true love never did run smooth"

coast of Africa, brought by the same arrival no.
ticed yesterday
We are gratifcd TO learn, as we do by our
regular files of "Afrca's Luminary" to the 4th
of September, that the Colony Of Liberia was
in prosperous condition.
The Luminary publishes entire the last ad-
dress of the Bishops to the General Conference
of the Methodist Episcopal Church.
The Colonsts are about appropratng $50
to the redemption Of native children from
slavery This movement cannot fail to increase
the population of Liberia, but it may tend to
increase the evils OF slavery by exciting the
cupidity of the slave dealers of the interior.
The u. 5. brig Porpose, Lieut.. Cram, COM
handing, arrived at Monrovia on the list of
Aug, and sailed on the 23d for windward.
A letter from Cape Mount New Florence,
dated 18th Aug, announces the cessation of
hostlities by the Ney Kings, and the adoption
of prelimnaries for 4 restoration of trade and
friendship.
The Rev. Mr.. Connolly, Presbyterian Mis-
sionary for Settra kroo, arrived at Monrovia
on the Goth Aug, in the Atalanta from New
York, and sailed for S. X. on the End Sept in
the same vessel
The Rev'd. DR.. Savage of the Protestant
Episcopal Mission, arrived at Monroyia on the
7th Aug, in the brig Frances Lord, accompa-
MED by his fellow laborers, Rev. Mr. Henning
and lady, Mrs. Patch and Miss Rutherford
They were kindly received at the Methodist
Mission House IN Monrovia, and after Il few
days set sail for their destination.
| The Rev, Mr.. Campbell of the A. B. G. F.
| NJ. at Palmas, is dead. The Luminary says:
"This very fine young man came out in COM
pany with the lamented Croker OF the Baptist
| Misslon in the barque Palestine. He was des
tined for the Gaboon river, to which the Pres
byterians have removed their aourshing mis-
sion establishment. Poor man, he did not live
to get to the Gaboon. The African fever 5000
marked him as its prey and in six weeks aflei
he arrived at Palmas he was numbered with
the happy dead q
The editor says:-"We found on our arriva
at Monrovia, among number of letters which
had been accommodating for three months, sew,
eral from the missionaries E. Johnson, A. +
Russell, and ]. NJ Stevens. From these, cop
Gus extracts will appear in our next, They
would now, but for the time necessary for de-
cphering. At Mount Andrew, brother Rus
sells station, things are getting along WE'LL
At brother Stevens, Morrisburgh, there are
discouragenents, but at the Garrcttson station
our brother Elijah Johnson writes, that tho
Lord is convincing souls, and that at almost
every Sabbath meeting, several renonnce thei
:dols and embrace the cross of our Lord jesus
Christ. May He hasten the redemption of al
Africa.
We regret to be obliged to announce tina
She Cape Mount Mission is a complete failure
and Mr. Williams had to return months ago tc
Monrovia where we found him without an ap
pointment. We hope the time may yet come
when we shall be able to get an establishment
among the Veys, who are an intelligent tribe
of Africans.
