DEPARTURE OF THE EMIGRANrs ron
LTBERIA.--The Macon Ga. Telegraph,
Of the Cd inst, says:
On Wednesday evening the Liberia
emigrants to the number Of some two
hundred and fifty, left Macon to ship
for the darkcy Land Of Promise. The
scene at the depot was one well worth
witnessing. Many Of the emigrants
seemed TO leave with light hearts, aud
with not an anxious thought of The
future, whilst others entered upon the
Journey almost with reluctance, and
left their friends and relatives with
tears and misgivings. They were es-
corted to the train. by one of the coll
ored societies--thc "Ring Doves,' we
belieye--with banners flying, and to
thesound Of drum and fife. The voy-
age is destined to be a long and mo
notonous one, and the ship In which
they are to sail will be very much
crowded. There will be no less than
800 souls on board of her. The Geor-
gia colonists go TO the town Of Green
vile, in the neighborhood of wifi oh
they intend to settle.

CoMMoDoEE J. X. TUcKEA.--Wc were
shown on yesterday by gentleman In this
city who IL his near relation, letter from
Commodore Tucker, from which we gather
the facts that he assumed the position prom
ised him ina the Peruvian navy on the 10th
Of August last, and had since that time
served rs second In command Of the allied
squadron Of Peru and Chill, receiving the
most courteous and gratifying consideration
invariably At the hands Of President Prado
and the members of his Cabinet
1t Is true as has been alledged, that upon
his arrival some dissatisfaction was shown
by subordinate officers at the idea Of a
foreigner occupying chief command In their
service, and the Commodore promptly
offered his resignation 10 prevent any trou-
blc-but the Government declined lie accep
lance, and the maicontents were immediate
~ placed under arrest for trial by courts

WoRKMEN's HOMES IN SCOTLAND. -
Edinburgh numbers $50 one roomed
houses, of which 1875 contain each six
inmates and under, while no one OF
the remaining 705 contains less than
that number Of occupants. In Glas-
gov the state OF things is still worse I;
for there the number of one.roomed
houses is 1928, of which number / 1858
shelter seven human creatures, while
each of the other $50 dwellings has
more than seven inmates. There are
in all Scotland no fewer than 1864
houses-if they can be called houses
without windows; and 3G,733 houses
of only one apartment; proving that
nearly one million of the people Of
Scotland, or nearly one. third Of the
entire population, are living in houses,
places improperly SO called, IN which
neither the comforts nor decencies OF
life can be secured, and which sre thus
totally unfit for human hahitation.
What wonder that working-men like
to spend as much of their leisure as
possible in public houses, and as little
oft as possible in their houses. 1.-THE

INDIAN AFFAIRS. The Superintond
ent of Indian Affairs of Colorado Ter.
ritory has forwarded 10 the Commits.
sioner of Indian Affairs letter OF
General Carson, commanding Fort
Garland, Colorado Territory, in rela.
ton to difficulties with the Indians In
Southern Colorado. General Carson
says that a war is impending with the
Ute Indians, who have recently driven
off lot of stock from the Hcurfano,
killing one man, and taking prisoners
an American woman and four children.
General Carson suggests that the set
tiers take prompt measures for the
common defense, and states that the
war, If instituted, will be one ofno or.
binary character He says, also, that
the Muaches are going west, and will,
beyond doubt, involve the Tabanches
in the war.
1t is reported that the Keiwas are
committing outrages in Texas.
y With reference TO the difficulty with
the Utes, the Hon J i. Chanes, dele.
gate from New Mexico, writing from
Santa Fe, under date of October 9th,
states that it has arisen from the mis-
management of n military officer II
appears that the Utes at Maxwelrs
rancho had become incensed on nc.
count of the death of one OF their mum
Der, by Mexican sheep herdor. Max
well becoming alarmed for tho safety
of his family, sent word to Fort Union
about the state of affairs, and one or.
two companies were sent to his relief
One ofthe officers, itappears, becom-
ing intoxicated, drew his pistol on
kahnetche, one Of the principal chiefs
of the Ute band Hence the present |
trouble with these Indians, the origi- |
nal difficulty, owing to the killing Of |
one of their number, having been sat
adjusted.
w. +. M. Army, Secretary Of the
Territory Of New Mexico, writes, I'M
der date Of October ., that twelve Utes
had been killed, and that tho. feeling !
among the Indians was very bitter, but |
hat efforts were being made TO avert
Ihe war which was pending.
