two years since, Captain Becrott and DR..

mcrcs with Central Africa Letters have
been received from these gentlemen by a
Dutch ship which arrived in the Channel,
dated Fernando Pc, November 9th, annornc@
ing their return to that island from the Niger,
six days previously. The vessel had been
upon that river for a period Of three months
and a half. U~nhappily, in consequence of
deaths, feuds, and wars among the chiefs,
the aspect Of matters in the interior had been
found to be materially changed and Rabbah,
the largest and most flourishing town on the
rlver III 1910, is now deserted and in ruins.
Owing to this disordered state Of things, the
mission had not been So successful, CONNER
cially, as was expected. though not less so
than DIR. kiHk had anticipated under the cir
cumstances.
AZ letter read at a recent meeting of the
Geographical Society, from Mr. Duncan, the
African traveller, states that the King of
Ashantee entertained him with a review of
G,OO0 female troops, whose arms, accoutre-
ments, and performance were truly astonish-
ing.
WHIPPED TO DEATH.-The Shawneetown

a disgracetul occurrence which took place in
Vienna, near that place. A man named
kersey, from Marion, stopped at Vienna over
night. The next morning he stated that he
had been robbed of over 800. Suspicion
ieli upon a negro man they endeavored to
make him confess his guilt, but without sue
cess. AT length 1t was determined 10 take
hun out and whip him. Accordingly he was
taken out, tied up, and the lash laid on by
kersey and others. After several places had
been named by the negro as to where he had
concealed the money, and each found to be
false, the whipping was repeated. At length
some OF the by-standers interfered, declaring
that the negro could not bear any further pun
lshment, and forcibly cut him down. He
was then conveyed towards the Jail, but be.
fore reaching that, and within fifteen minutes
aftei he was cut loose, he dropped down dead.
ANOTHER TORREY CAsF.-We learn by a
letter from Tazewell county, that George
kcarn, an old gray-haired Christian, a local
preacher in the Methodist denomination, (not
a seceder) has been imprisoned in Tazewell
county, on the charge of feeding the hungry,
clothing the naked, and giving aid to the
fugitive! He is a resident of Woodward
county, bnt as there is no Jail there, he is con-
fined at fremont. How long shall wicket
men under the sanction of law be permitted
to insult God, and mock his mercy and low
ing kindness Chicago Western Citizen.
LIBERATION OF SLAvEs.-We learn that
thlity-three negro slaves, from the eastern
part of Virginia, recently liberated at the
death OF their master, arrived in town a few
days ago, and were to have proceeded yester-
day on board the Dominion TO Ohio, their
new destination. We learn, likewise, that
their iberator purchased for them a farm in
Ohio, to which they are going.-PiHSburgh
