How they Live in Liberia.

Mrs. Turner, wife of Hon. j. Milton
Turner, American Minister resident in Ii
IBERIA, thus writes to female friend at St.
Louis:
II see and learn so many things in this
strangest of strange countries that, hurried
as / am to reach the mail before it is closed,
scarcely know which to write first about.
But / must tell you that the President and
Cabinet gave Mr.. Turner superb reception.
Persons from many different parts were
present. A few evenings afterwards he ar
ranged for us a select gathering at his resi-
dence, which was simply elegant. The
Mayor of the city also gave us reception
at his residence. This entertainment caused
me, for the time being, to forget that we
were in Africa. Every luxury Of the trop-
ical climate was upon the table, and the
company was very intellectual.
''Just to think of generals and colonies
in uniform, Cabinet officers, city council
men, lawyers. doctors, other professional
characters, authors, editors, poets, and
other distinguished literary people, together
with live President, and bevy of ladies
to correspond, and they, every one, color
ed! There were also present the ministers
for England, Germany, Norway, and SSe-
den, Hayti and other countries. | declare
it was the incest affair that | have ever
xeen."

President Grant on ,he Kn-Klux.

In recent conversations with those who
understand the nature and extent of the
Au-iNlux organizations, the President has
expressed his determination to use all the
powers given him under the laws to root
out and destroy it entirely. He declared
that its acts strike at the foundation of all
society and disorder, and that the crimes
that have been daily committed by its
members for many months past entitle
them to neither mercy nor consideration.
lie IS sworn to enforce the laws, and will
do his utmost to put an end to the organ
ized system OF murder, whipping aud terror
which prevailed in the States recently in
rebellion.
The President declares that he was 10th
to believe in the formidable character of the
conspiracy that he reluctantly recon-
mended rcpressive legislation, and did not
do SO before he was fully convinced of the
nature OF their movements (; but that he is
now fully determined to use every means
under the constitution and laws to defeat
them. The Department of Justice has
complete secret system at its command.
and the President has, of course, been full
ly informed of all ITS operations which are
especially directed toward the Ku-Klux
movements. If the public could be in
formed of the character of this information.
it would be greatly startled.
The subcommittee, now in session in
Georgia and Alabama, are reported, by ad-
vices just received here, to be making tho
rough work, and obtaining great deal of
valuable testimony. The condition of
Georgia is shown to be much worse than it
was six months since, so far as the mani
festation of organized hatred to the govern
ment is concerned. 1t is also reported
that the testimony recently taken,
and other knowledge in possession Of
the government, point in support of sus-
pcion long entertained that Gen. Du Bose,
member of Congress, and the son-in-law
Of Robert Toombs, is chief of the "Invisi-
bic Empire" for the State of Georgia. 1t
is in the district he represents that ma
jority of those who have fled from South
Carolina have found refuge. The charge
against Du Bose will probably be made the
subject of investigation by the House when
Congress assemblies.

DEMOCRACY STRIPPED OF ITS
"BLOOMER. For some time the Democ-
racy of Richmond has been gorgeously ar
rayed in "Bloomern costume, which has
been so very attractive, from the knee
down, as to result in Republican defeats.
This costume, though cut and made by a
Republican tailor, was only of service to
Democracy, becausei it ''iit'' Republicanism
very badly. A short time ago it was sent
to North Carolina, and although telegraph
ed for and expected on the O'Clock train
this morning, we understand it failed to
come to time. AS an evidence of its being
anticipated by Democracy, if our readers
will glance over the list of appointments of
Republican judges, they will perceive that
one beverly Bloomero is set down as n
Judge at Jim Fishers precinct, Monroe
ward.
We do not know who is acting in this
very honorable gentleman's stead, but we
do hope We have not swapped the devil for
witch. ~
Our party has calculated on reducing, at
this precinct alone, the Democratic major
ity by at least 800 unless, indeed, there
is still an "Arnold' in the field.
AS sure as the sun shines some of the
past villainy of Democracy will be discov-
cred, and if it is, and Judge Bond does not
send some Of the actors in suit of stripes
to Albany, then, indeed, have we mistaken
the man.
Look sharp, Republicans, or rascality
will accomplish what lack of votes will
fail to do.

From the New Orleans Republican. ]

My MeTHER.-My mother was raised
in Virginia. There were three of us chill
dren, Sally, Manuel and Laura, the baby,
two months old. Our owner, Mr.. Royal,
who was kind master, died, and saw
my mother and all the children sold for his
debts, and the family scattered. Even
baby was torn from mother, and saw its
little hands stretched toward her, and heard
its cries as they took it from her arms, and
she was denied the last request to nurse it.
Mr.. Mathis, who bought mother and two
children, but afterward permitted this
cruel separation, will remember. If any
one knows where my mother can be found,
if living, he will confer a great kindness on
me by sending word to SALLY,
Menger House, San Antonio, Texas.
Republican papers in the South arc re-
quested to give the above a gratuitous in
sertion. 0fl

THE CHICAGO GoLD.-The Philadel-
phia Ledger of Wednesday says: The work
of examining the coin received from the Sub
Treasury at Chicago was yesterday COM
pleted at the Mint in this city. There was
about $3.50, 900 in gold, silver and nickles.
The money has been deposited in the stone
vaults Of the Treasury at Chicago, some of
it in bags, some in paper parcels, and some
loose. After the fire the ruins We're over
hauled, and the mass of that which was be-
lieved to be coin was sent to Philadelphia.
When it reached here it was apparently n
mass Of mortar, rags and dirt. AT the
Mint, the good coin was at once extricated,
and about $780, 600 of this was obtained
that needed no more than the application
of acid to make it presentable. The bal
ance consisted of masses Of gold, silver and
nickel, amalgarnated by heat, and requir-
ing the process of coming to be gone over
again. This was completed yesterday, and
the return of the product made to the Sec
retary Of the Treasury.

Rev. j. R. Garlick baptized two per-
sons at the Leigh street Baptist church on
Wednesday night and one on Sunday
morning. Forty persons have been added
to this church by baptism during the last
four weeks.
1t is stated that large majority of the
judges failed to appear at the appointed
time during the late fair, and that substi-
tutes had to be hastily appointed. Conse-
quently complaints are made of some of
the decisions.
On Sunday morning youth named
M. Moore, who lives on Church Hill, was
painfully injured while jumping over the
iron railing around grave in st. Johns
church-yard. One of the bars entered his
body just below the breast bone, inhicting
a painful wound.
Yesterday morning, two little children
of Mrs. Anne nj. Burrows, of Caroline
county, who is stopping at Mrs. s. B.
Hicks 4l0 First street, were badly scalded.
The accident was caused by an awkward
servant upsetting stove. The children
We're both under three years of age.
Capt. c. II. Epps, the police officer in
charge of the Fair Grounds, has in his pos
session half a dozen pocket-books found
there during the Fair. All of them seemed
to belong to persons living in the country.
The owners can have them by writing to or
calling upon Capt. Epps and proving pro-
perty.

Much has been said of the intense heat of
the fires which destroyed Peshtigo, Meme
kaune, Williamsonville, &c., but all that
has been said cannot give the stranger even
q ialnt conception Of the reality. The heat
has been compared to that engendered by a
flame concentrated ON an object by blow
pipe, but even that would not account for
some of the phenomena. For instance, we
have in our possession copper cent,
taken from the pocket of dead
man in the Peshtigo Sugar Bush
which will illustrate our point. This cent
has been partially fused but still retains its
round form and the inscription upon it is
leglble. Others IN the same pocket were par
tally melted off, and yet the clothing and
body OF the man were not even singed. We
do not know any way to account for this,
unless, as is asserted by some, the tornado
and fire were accompanied by electrica lphe-
nomena.
The house, barn and fences of Mr.. Hill.
of the upper Sugar Bush, were burned. and
Mr.. Hill and his family all lost. By the
side of the family was narrow alley. lust
wide enough to drive through. In this al
ley stood a wagon, and while the barn and
fence were entirely destroyed, the wagon
box was not even snged.
Alf Phillips's house, in the upper Sugar
Bush, was destroyed, but the family es-
capped. They state that two opposite cur
rents of air apparently struck the house,
which was sixteen by twenty-four feet, and
carried it bodily into the air they think 100
feet. In the air it burst into flames, and in
few minutes was entirely destroyed. The
house was not on fire when it left the
ground.
We do not believe that any other ex-
planation Of the great calamity can be made,
than that it was caused by fire, wind and
electricity. Green Bay Adoocate.

CANDIDATES. ATTENTION! y We
have several times charged that by fraud
and other unfair means, the Republican
party Of Richmond has been cheated out Of
the results of the election. 1t is the in
tention of the Democrats to do the same
thing again, this time, Unnecessary. The
law allows each party to have two of their
members to see the ballots counted. Let
the Republican candidates at once select
two men to 60 to each precinct and demand
their admission, as provided by law. A
failure to do this, puts it in the power Of
the Democrats to swindle us as they have
done heretofore.
