a S'FRASG STORY.


A Washington special dispatch to
New York paper contains this paragraph:
The Secretary of The Interior has been
called upon to decide upon the aus
taomty given him by the laws of Con-
gress in regard 0 the return to Africa Of
negroes recaptnred from slavers by the
United States..in case whose facts are
stronger than fiction. La 1859 the Wan
derel, slave trading vessel, was captur-
cd by a United States war-vessel cruising
among the West Indies The cargo of
captives was found to be in a horrible
condition, aud on that account the com
lnanaer Of the cruiser took the Wanderer
to Savannah, instead Of waiting to make
a northern port While lying there the
SLAYER was boarded by desperate gang,
by whom the captives were retaken and
scattered immediatey through the South,
so that they could not be found again. by
the Government. Since the war part
Of this company Of negroes has gathered
at Mobile, formed society by themselves
preserving their native language and
living apart from the freedmen about
them. They are said to be industrious
aud thrifty. They desire to be sent back
to their native country; but Secretary
Cox, before whom the question first came,
did not see his way clear TO provide for
their return, under a law that never con
templated such case, and Secretary
Delano is embarrassed in the same way
The circumstances appeal to Congress,
if the law as it stands is insufficient The
little band is Of tribe called Yorcubans
Rev. A. D. Phillips, a returned mission
airy TO Africa, in addressing congrega-
ton of colored people at Mobile two years
ago, happened to recite the Lords
Prayer in Yorcuban, in the hearing of
this company, who. hearing their native
tongue, came around him and made
known the circumstances Of their capture
and subsequent history. 1t seems they
were traders of influence and high posi-
ton in Yorcuba. They were captured
by Dahomeys and placed on the Wander
er, near Porto Novo. It is also repre-
sented that many other freedmen desire
to be returned to Africa.

GOV. HOLDEN'S MESSAGE-THE
KU-KLUX KHAN AND :. MAR
TIAL LAW.
In his recent message to the Ilegisla
tnre, Gov. Holden writes as follows con-
corning the outrages on the State, and
his action in regard to the Counties OF
Alamanee aGd Casweh:
This organization.@ under different
names, but cemented by common pur
pose, is believed to have embraced not
less than 40, 600 voters IN North Carolina.
It was governed by rules more or less
military in their character, and it struck
! its victims with such secrecy. swiftness,
and certainty as to leave them little hope
either for escape or mercy. The mem
| bers were sworn to obey the orders of their
camps, even to assassination and muir
der. They were taught to regard oaths
administered before magistrates and IL
| Courts of Justice as in no degree mind
ing when they were called upon to give
testimony against their coufederates.
| They were sworn to keep the secrets of
the order-to obey the commands of the
| Ghetto go TO the rescue of a member
at all hazards, and to swear for him as a
witness, and acquit him as juror Con-
seq lently Grand ,Juries in many coun-
ties frequently refused to find bills against
members of this Khan for the graveSt
and M ost fragrant violations OF law, and
when bills were found,- and the parties
were arraigned for trial, witnesses, mem
bers of the orders, would in nearly every
case come forward, and, taking oath be-
fore the Court on the Holy Evangelists
to tell the truth, the whole truth and
nothing but the truth, would swear false
ly, and would thus defeat the ends OF
justice. There are at least four judges
aud four solicitors in the State who will
bear witness to the fact, from their own
experience, that it was very difficult. il
not i'm apostolic. 10 convict members Of
this Khan of crimes and misdemeanors.
| have information of not less than %
murders committed by members of this
Khan in various counties Of the State,
and ofhundreds of cases of scourging and
whipping. Very few, if any, convic-
tons have followed in these cases. The
civil law was powerless. One State Sena-
tor war murdered in the open day in a
County Court House, and another State
Senator was driven from the State, solely
on account of their political opinions.
In neither case was a bill found by a
, Grand Jury. A respectable and unoff.
ending colored man was taken from his
bed at night and hanged by the neck
until he was dead, within short distance
| of County Court House. Another col.
ored men was drowned because ho spoke
publicly OF persons who aided in the
+ commission of this crime. No bill s were
found in these cases. A crippled white
man, a native of Vermont, was cruelty
whipped because he was teaching col
, ored school. No bill was found in this
case. The Sheriff of county vas way.
laid, shot and killed on a pubic high
4 way, and the Colonel Of County wa:
= shot and killed in open day while en-
gagged in his usual business. A County
f jail was broken open, and five men takeii
! out and shot, one of whom died Of hi
wounds Another jail was broken opel
, and a United States prisoner released
! No punishment followed in the cases.

ANNUAL REPORT sOF THE SEC
RETAR OF TIE NAVY.

The report of the Secretary of the Ma
Wy is published. Although brief but
terse, and embraces numerous matters OF
importance, suceinctly stated. 1t shows
that Notwithstanding the enormous de-
mands On the department, the expendi-
lures have been kept down, and are abso-
lutely over $l,000,G coo less for the year
ending December list, 1870, than for the
year ending December lst, 1859.
1t demonstrates that while the depart
ment Is responding to the demands OF the
country for economy in expenditures, it is
at the serious cost o. our commerce IN
foreign seas, and to the detrment Of the
rights or our citizens in foreign lands
With $40, coo, 900 square miles OF navi-
gable waters, and q coast-line OF oar own
OF seven thousand miles. The Secretary
says forty ships are utterly insufficient.

are the guns OF the navy, and that scarce
mail comes cut but brings Intelligence
Of some call on naval vessels in distant
seas for protection. and especially at the
present time, ha says. everywhere On the
shores OF civilized Europe, the security
of American rights and citizenship de-
mands the presence Of our flag While IN
all the civilized East our commerce is con
stantly startled by outbreaks which defy
the powers Of even friendly governments.
The Secretary, abiding to the irlpof-
tant American interests on our Asiatic
station, says there is constant necessity
for an increase Of our force there which
were unable to afford. It Expresses
the Department. that the feeling Of un-
certainty and alarm which at this time
preya6es all European settlements IN
China extends to cur commercial and re-
ligious representatives, and the bulk Of
cur Asiatic. feet is now cInisiug in that
portion Of the station for the protection
of any interests that may be threatened.

appeal to Asiutic respect.

THE MARVEL OF STEAM ENGIN-

5 N-~sss' - q i
The Philadelphia correspondent Of the

"Prominent among these is what
seems justly termed The marvel OF
steam engineering. This Ettle machine,
combines the maximum Of power in the
minimum Of space, and seems likely to
go far toward superseding the piston en-
CINE. Thus, for economy and space. We
have an eight-horse engine, with govern
or attached, the entire engine enclosed
within circular case, % inches diameter
by > inches wide, and looking not unlike
an ordinary grind-stone when hung IN
frame, The principle upon which the
invention is based is the same as that IN
volved in the turbine wheel, with the es-
sential difference, however, that the en-
CINE consists of two wheels within one
case rotating in opposite directions with
equal force and speed one, the outer
wheel, being driven by the direct action
of steam upon buckets extending around
the INSIDE surface Of its arm, and the
other by the reactive force of the steam
which escapes from two tubular radla.
arms, bent and fattened at their ends
from which the steam is discharged.
This latter wheel has hollow journal,
connected with the supply steam pipe by
stationary steam-tight sleeve through
which the steam is led to the hollow axle
or journal of the wheel These wheels,
therefore, have equal velocity and power,
and each has a pulley attached, from
whence belts are carried to the counter
shaft. one of the belts being reversed OF

Gus piece of mechanism arc numerous.

RICE IN loUfsTANA.-Three varieties
of rice have long beea raised in the State
Of Louisiana The common white creole
rice, which is probably the same kind
introduced In Ills by the Company of
West the Gold Seed rice planted in the
parish of Plaqaemines for the first time
about the year 1907, and the White
Bearded rice, which was broneht from
South Carolina Ia 1866 CT 1867. The
Gold Seed has been cultivated In the
Palmetto State since the revolution Last
year, two or three euterpriSing planters
sent to Honduras ior another variety of
rice, which premises to be far superior
in quality to the best Carolina. About
one hundred acres Of EGYPTIAN and three
hundred Of Honduras seed are under
cultivation this-season. This year a new
variety from Egypt has been introduced.
