mains were inferred in the yard of the First
Presbyterian Church We saw his grave the
other day and could not help thinking that too
little attention has been paid to his memory
A comparatively small sum would be sufficient
to erect suitable monument over the spot
This might easily be obtained either by sub

year becoming of more importance to the ser
vice of which Com. Barney was an ornament"

NAvM-Ts Insmrection at the Bay Of ISL
ands. We find in the Patriot, the following
extract of letter from an officer on board the
u S. ship st. Louis:
"The U. S. ship St. Louis, Capt. J. McKeev-
er, anchored at the Bay of Islands, New Zeal
and, on the Sd March, being seven days from
Sydney, New South Wales. She left the East
Indies IN November, 1914, when, after render.
ing most important services with her sailors
and marines in quelling an attempt by a Chi
nese mob to destroy the northern Coast of Chi
ma, the st. Louis proceeded to Manila, Bata-
via, Hobart's Town, Van Dcman's Land, and
Sydney, N. S. Wales, and thence to New
Zealand. Her arrival at the Bay of Islands
has been most oPportune, the natives having
risen upon the Europeans, headed by their in
teligent New Zealand Chief, John keki Cap
tain Mckeever from his neutral position, and
the happy Influence he was enabled to exercise

made an attack upon the English village at the
Bay, took 1t, and burnt it the following day
killing the commander of her Maiesty's ship

to defend the place. upwards of dozen more
were wounded. The natives lost about the
same number as the English. The St. Louis
leaves this morning to proceed to Auckland, the
seat of Government, with the defenceless in
habitants on board. After landing them, she

GREAT CoNFLAGRATIoN.-One of the most
destructive fires with which our city has been
visited for years; occurred yesterday afternoon,
as the people were about going to church.
The fire commenced in a carpenters shop on
South Cedar street, owned and occupied by Geo.
Novel;, burning several dwelling-houscs and
workshops near by, together with furniture and
tools, &c. The wind, which had been blowing
from the southwest, suddenly changed to the
west, and the flames spread with alarming fierce
ness in the direction of Church street, destroy
ing every thing in its way, dwelling-houses, with
their contents, and much valuable furniture, ly-
ing in the street, which had been removed fol
safety when the alarm was first given.
The building known as the stocking factory
occupied by fourteen families, was soon wrapped
in flames, and most of the inmates had time on
ly to escape without saving any of their proper
ty. A large number Of houses in Piedmont st
were destroyed. The Methodist meeting house
and many other buildings on Church street
were seriously INJURED.
We understand that between thirty and forty
houses we're consumed, and that nearly one hun
bred families were left without home or shelter
A number of families who had been riding 70
pleasure on the Sabbath day, returned to fin
their dwelling-houses and all they contained
heap of ruins. Some in consequence of drink
enness lost much they might otherwise hav
saved. The scene was awful.-Boston Chron.
Fires Observation-Disclosures at work. Since on
paper went to press yesterday morning, there hav
been no less than six fiji es and twelve or fifteen
larins. Fires have occurred in almost every pal
of the city, and individuals have been discovere
in the act of firing buildings. We are glad tina
one or two are now under arrest, and trust thu
Efforts will be made to secure others. ID.

Campaign Subscribers.

We have heard from a large number of towns
that are preparing to send on for a bundle of cam
paign papers. We want the orders sent in next
week. Now is the time to make an impression on
the+ninds of honest voters that will be felt, and its
effects will be manifested at the next election
Nothing 10 better than tracts and papers to en-
tighten the mind and arouse the feelings of those
who have hearts to feel. Let a good liberty news
paper be placed in the hands of every voter, and
one year would revolutionize the State. Every
Liberty man Onght to feel the importance of de-
~creasing the number of pro slavery papers and in
c%reasing the number Of liberty papers in his own
town. Here is a chance for you to do this effec-
tually and if our agents and friends will take hold
Of this work in good earnest, a host of campaign
papers may be circulated through the State at the
low price for which we offer them. Who that
has a particle of love for the cause will not be
willing to give so cents for the Freeman G months?
We arc aware that it is q busy time with farm
ers, but a day spent now will do more to advance
the cause than a week just before election, and in
no way can more good be done ct present than in
obtaining campaign subscribers. Who is ready to
take hold of the work immedi ately?

about a reformation in the church on the subject
of slavery. But have we had this, or any thing
like it? Have we not rather been enthusiasts,
looking for the end without using the meansi is
not our want of success to be traced, in the main.
to our want ofsystematic effort in the cause? If
SO, does it become US, at the present time, to sit
down and whine about persecution, and talk about
leaving the church? Can we expect to convince
the church or even the world of the truth of oul
principles or of the sincerity of our professions by
such a course! Certainly not. Neither can we,
under such circumstances, .by seeding from the
church, FREQ ourselves from that guilt and respou-
sibiIlty in which the church, in consequence of
her connection with slavery, has become involved.

EXPEDITION TO THE NIaER.-The Londo

EXPEDITION TO THE NIGER.-The London
Times makes the following announcement.
ltappears, though the facthas not yet come
prominently into public notice, that another
expedition TO the river Niger has been organ
lied, and is by this time far on the way to its
destination: the subscriptions fori it have been
raised chiefly in London and in Liverpool,
and at the head of the former list is the name
of the late Sir II. +. Buxton for 5O0k The
command of the expedition is entrusted to
Capt. John Becrolt, who was second in com
mand under Colonel NicholI at Fernando
Pc, and this will be his fourth ascent Of that
river, so that he may be said to be perfectly
seasoned to the climate. He is accompanied
by DR.. King, and the same engineer who
went with him in his former voyages, and,
to guard further against the fatality which
visited the previous expedition, the rest of
the crew is composed Of Africans.

A WANT STRONGER THAN HUNGER.

An old man, who had borne an irreproachable
character up to the age of seventy-two, was lately
brought before one of the tribunals of Paris for
stealing a piece of lead worth eight cents. He
admitted that he was wholly without means, and
for the first time in his life knew not where to
find a single sous but it was not hunger that
drove him to steal, After considerable question
ing on the part of the Judge, as to what could
be stronger than hunger, he confessed that it was
tobacco for his pipe. Tobacco, monsieur
Judge !" said he, growing violent; " l have the
misery to be a hopeless smoker l smoke at
waking l smoke while eating +; l cannot sleep
without smoking till the pipe falls from my mouth.
Tobacco costs me six cents a day. When l
have none I am frantic. I cannot work, nor
eat, nor sleep. I go from place to place, rag
ing like a mad dog. The day [ stole the lead,
| had been without tobacco for twelve hours
l searched the day through for an acquaintance
of whom I could beg a pipS full. | could not,
and resorted to crime as aless evil than was
enduring. The need was stronger than II"
The eloquence and pathos of the old mans plea
notified the judge, and he condemned him only
to eight days imprisonment.

SLAVE TRADE IN CuBA.-There is a singu-
lar perfdy carried on in Cuba, in regard to the
slave trade. The slaves captured in the Span
ish vessels are delivered over to the Spanish au-
thorities for the purpose of being liberated. The
government, to carry out its humane intention to
the full, has determined that the slaves shall be
educated. They are therefore put up at auction,
and sold to whoever for the shortest time of SER
vice will agree to teach them certain things
When a planter takes an apprentice he gives the
government a receipt for him, promising to re-
turn him, casualties only excepted, at the end Of
five or ten years, as the case may be, possessed
of certain amount of knowledge. When a ne
gro dies, the doctor makes out a certificate Of
one of the apprentices, certifying that the ap
prentice is dead, whereupon the certificate of the
poor apprentice is given up, and he is in hope
less slavery. In one way or another the certltl
Gates are all cancelled; so that the sale of these
liberated slaves is into a bondage as hopeless a
II thew had never been recaptured. In fact, thu
arrangement constitutes the most perfect securl
4y for this trade. The Havana slave dealer fit
out his voyage. If the vessel arrives without benz
captured. it is well. If she is captured, the
the slaves must 90 through with the form abov
described. The owner is the only bidder at tn
sale, and of course pays a mere trlfe' Such a
outrageous aggravation OF wrong is only "or'"

Ecclesiastical Pro-SZavery.-ln our last,it
was stated in a scrap under General Intelli-
gence :" that the Baltimore Conference Of the
Meth. Episcopal Church was ~thronghly i'm
bncd with Anti-SIavery sentiment. We are
sorry to learn that so far from this being the
case, some ministers in hat body are slave
holders, From one of our exchanges, the
Richmond Christian Advocate" edited by
Leroy M, Lee, we find the following cdito-
rial statement:
In the case of brother who informed
the conference that by the request of his
mother he had come into the possession of 2
slaves-one under fifty years, and the other
over, his character passed.! He further re-
marked; ave know that they distinguish
between the criminality of Downing a slave
fifteen years old, and one TO ty-seven."
The truth seems to be, that this ecclesias-
teal body refuse to admit or continue in the
ministry those who hold slaves if they can
be emancipated convenien tIy.-Americon

though his list was more than 5000, yet he says he
came very near being ruined by the experiment.
We have found, to our satisfaction that a good
sized country newspaper cannot be well sustained
at a less price than one dollar & fifty cents or two
dollars a year. The Freeman, though it has more
subscribers than any political paper in the state,
will but little more than meet its current expenses
