Oh /. would you were on Georgia soil
Joe Brown would give you II---alihx.
Bob Anderson, my Dcmi .,ohn,
Where is tlaS " Western Star"
That was so boldly talked about
B1l route for Charleston bar?
Why were you not enforced, Bob.
BY troops from James Buchanan?
NIayhnps your Lincoln friends dislike
The smell of Southern cannon.
Bob Anderson, my Dcmi,john,
You can't scare Southern sons;
Our very mothers laugh at you
While loading up your guns.
And since you've moved to Sumter, Bob,
With view to frighten Pickens,
May those brave boys in Moultrie, Bob,
Give you the very Dickens.

Reported Sad Condition of the People in

ATCHINsoN, KANSAS, Feb. 4.-Mcssrs.
Hyatt and Pomcroy have prepared the follow
ing address to the people of the States, which
represents truly the condition of the people of
Kansas, without question
Starvation IN Kansas is but one step be-
tween $4,000 people and death An appeal
to the press Of the country to the churches
to Congress, to the State Legislatures, to phi
lanthropists, and to the humane everywhere
Prompt action by the country, or a miracle
from God, can alone save this people. The
famine, like a vortex, draws to its frightfl
centre all conditions. They who had food
yesterday have none to-day, and they who
have food to-day have none for tomorrow.
Seventy teams arrived yesterday Fifty were
loaded and sent away the day before. Ten
thousand dollars worth of clothing has been
distributed within the past week. Six thous-
and dollars i'll cash, within four days, have
been paid for freights. Eighty-onc car loads
OF provisions have arrived within that time,
and yet starvation is imminent The people
arc living from hand to mouth, and are barely
saved alive. Our funds are now exhausted
The numbers of the destitute increase fearful
ly The melting SHOWS of February and the
overfiowing streams must shortly prevent the
! distant sufferers from coming here to get sup
plies. Their salvation depends upon our
promptncss in establishing dcpots for provis-
ions at accessible points. Without funds the
whole work must cease. The intermission of
week is death and desoation. Unless the
country gives us seed there can be no harvest,
and the seed wheat should be in the ground
within forty days. At least 100000 bushels
are needed for food, and as much more fol
seed to the heart of the country, and in the
name of Christ we make this earnest appcul

Canmibalisn tn Africa.

( Du Challiu gives +" gloomier report of
the ignorance and barbarism of Africa
than any recent traveller. He gives
lrightful account of the cannibalism pre-
vailing in one of the tribes he visited, the
Fans:
On going out next morning, saw apile
OF ribs, legs aud Nrm-bones and skulls
(humau) piled up ut the back of my house,
which looked hOtrid enough to me. In
fact, symptoms of caunibal!sm stare me in
the face wherever go, and can no longer
doubt.
Eating the bodies of persons who have
died of sickness is form of cannibalism
of which had never heard among any
people, so that determined to inquire if
it were indeed general custom among the
Fans, or merely San exceptional freak
They spoke without embarrassment about
the whole matter, and was informed that
they constantly buy the dead of the
Osheba tribe, who, in return, buy theirs.
They also buy the dead of other fam
lilies in their own tribes; and besides this,
get the bodies of "a great many slaves from
the .Mbichos and Mbondemos, for which
they readily give ivory. ut the rate of a
small tusk tor body. Until to-day new
Ell could believe two stories-both we'll au-
Iheutcated, but seeming quite impossible
to any one unacquainted with this people
which are told of them on the Gaboon.
\ party of Fans, who came down to the
seashorc, once actually stole n freshly hu-
ried body from the cemetery, cooked it and
ate it and ut another time a party cUn-
veyed a body into the woods cut it up, aud
smoked the flesh, which they carried away
with them. The circumstance made a
great fuss among the Mpongwe, and even
the missionaries heard of it, for it happen
ed at village not far from the missionary
grounds but 1 never credited the stO-
. ries till now, though the facts wee
well authenticated by witnesses. in
fact, the Fans seem regular ghouls,
only they practice their horrid custom
unblushingly, and in open day, and have
knives covered with human skin, which
their owners valued very highly. To-day
the queen brought me some boiled plain
tain, which looked very nice; but the fear
that she had cooked it in some pot where
man had been cooked before-which
was most likely the case-rnnde me unable
to eat it. On these Journeys have fortu-
nately taken with me sufficient pots to do
my own cooking. They are the finest, brn-
vest set of negroes have seen in the inte-
rior, and eating human flesh seems TO
agree with them, though afterwards saw
other Fan tribes whose members had not
the fine air of these mountainecrs. As
everywhere else, location seems to have
much to do with it. These were living
among the mountains, and had all the APP
peurance of hardy mountaineers.

AT the commencement of the battle OF
Bull Run, Lieut.. Hasbrouck, of the West
Point Battery, was riding little sOFFel
horse. which was shot three times, and
from loss of blood became too weak for
further service. He was stripped of bri-
die and saddle, and turned loose. as his
owner supposed, to Gle. In the heat of the
contest nothing more was thought of the
little sOrrel, nor was he seen again until
the remnant of the battery was far to-
wards Washington on the retreat. 1t
paused at Ceutreville, and while resting
there Lieut.. Hasbrouck was delighted to
be joined by his faithful horse, which by
strong instinct had obeyed the bugle call
to retreat, and had found his true position
with the battery. He come safely into
Washington, is now recovered of his
wounds, and ready for another fight.

TIE REBELS about Richmond are repre-

TEp RERELs about Richmond are repre-
sented as being badly in need of shoes,
az no doubt they are in all the Confederate
camps. If the blockade is to be rigidly
enforced this want will constantly aug
mept There are but few tanneries in the
Soutb. mostly in the border States, and
conducted generally on Il small scale
They cannot half or fourth supply the
want of leather in ordinary times much
less in times of war. The stock of boots
and shoes in the South purchased from
Northern manufacturers on credit and the
deb, repudiated, is al out exhausted, and
the chivalry must soon go barefoot or
raise the blockade. Even this expedient
wouldn't do them much good, as they
have no money to pay and couldn't buy
on credit.
If there is any one item in the commits
sariat of an army, more important than
another, next to bread and meat, it is
leather. Even clothing is second to it F.;
for in A warm climate this might be sup
planted by the Georgia costume, without
any serious detriment, except to modesty;
but for active service, for making marches
or fighting battles, shoes are absolutely in
dispensable, even in warm climate, No
campaign can be conducted successfully
by barefoot army, in country as rough
as ours-especinlly no winter campaign.
What could the rebel ragamufins do bare
foot in winter campaign in the mountains
of Virginia?
The scarcity of leather in many parts of
the South is said to be so great, that they
are robbing the tanneries of half-tanned
hides, and converting them into shoes
As the winter approaches, this need will
be still more seriously felt, and as it is emil
nently calculated to cripple the efficiency of
the rebel army, every care should be taken
that it is not supplied by the smuggling of
leather and shoes by the traitors in the
loyal States, through neutral ports like
Baltimore or Louisville. Let this contra
band article be watched US vigilantly as
food or munitions of war, for 1t is scarcely
of less Importance to the enemy.

Tn. Tactics OF Trenson.

The merciless savagcs have been in
voked to become the allies of the rebel
lion. Not satisfied with long roll of
infumiGs without parallel, the head devils
of the conspiracy against our Government,
our liberties and lives, have leagued with
their treason, with an inhumanity that
makes the blood curdle, the merciless Iu-
dams along the frontier. They thus make
war not upon the Government alone, not
alone upon section or class, but upon
humanity itself-n war upon all ages, sex
es, and conditions OF society-a war con-
demned by all the instincts of civilization,
and all the teachings and laws of Chris
tendon. In proof OF this, take few ci-
tations from sources authorized to speak.
The Memphis Avalanche, Of August 20,
says:
1.-THE red men of the forest are gathering
TO the standard of the South. Albert G.
Pike, the Indians friend, acting as Com
missioner of the Confederate States, is
forming alliances with the most noted
tribes of the West Even the wild Ca
mauches, heretofore uutamable, are about
to be brought under the protection and in
fiuence of the Confederate Government and
mustered into the service of the Confeder-
ate States. 1t will be n grand sight to see
Il cavalry brigade of those wild and fierce
horsemen of the desert, subjected to the
discipline of civilized warfare, fighting the
battles of the South. Our Indian army
will strike terror into the craven hearts of
our mercenary invaders"
The following is from the report of the
said Albert G. Pike.
Notwithstanding heavy outside influ-
encs, a treaty advantageous to both parties
was made with the rulers of the Greek ma
ton. Before entering on the considera-
ton of the treaty it was voted by a unani-
nous vote of the council to go with the
South, treaty or no treaty. The principal
men have been true as steel to the South
from the beginning of the negotiation, and
the nation ratified their treaty by n unani-
nous vote in council, every town being
represented. Their regiment IUiH be ready in
a .fetO days, and probably a halt dozen
more"
Here is the proof of the barbarous cove
naut in his own words. But here is still
more, paragraph from the Helena, Ark.
Shield, showing that as early us the 10th oil
August the savages were being mustered
for the frontiers
"Frona the Hon. c. W. Adams, of this
county, who arrived at home few days
since from the Northern part of the State,
We learn that on last Monday week 1900
Indian warriors-Southern Rllies-crossed
the Arkansas river, near Fort Smith, on the
way for McCuIloch's camp. These lndi-
ans were armed:with rife, 6HteAe' kSits and
t0nsahdpk, and had their faces painted one
half red and the other black. We also
learn that regiment Of mounted Texans
crossed the ArkanSas at or near Fort Smith
for the same destination" yTs
