New YORK, Aug. 13.-Rev. DR.. ClSrk
of the American Board Of Foreign Mis-
sions has received a letter from the Rev.
j. o. BarrOws, of Cesarea, dated July 10.
in which he gives some thrilling details Of
The terrible famine now prevailing in that
region. MIR. BsrroHs writes:
While at YOdegat, which Is eighty or
ninety miles north OF us, noticed TayageS
of the famine, which is very severe, and
also beyond and toward AngOria, many vii
lagos are entirely deserted. In some only
one or two, three or four families, or parts
Of families. remain. In the district Of Sun
CARTE, which is beyond Yodegat, and in
which city there is Protestant church,
rs many as 5000 persons have died Of
star alton. But the horrors Of this famine
az Undesirable. Many people have sub
sisted on gass for weeks and then died.
Beg us have flOcked to the cities aud them
many of them have died bociuse they could
not ret a InOrsel Of bread Old men, moth
'ers with babes al their breasts, young chill
dren, boys and girls, are half naked, beg
eing and CRYING. Diving bodies have lain
in the streets one, two, and even three or
four DAYS. before burial. and the dogs hSye
faastad on them. Hany Of our Protestant
communities and families have suffered
greatly.
At Sungarted some OF the brethren have
sold house, shop, household furniture,
everything, and now must beg or starve,
and perhaps both. In one village there
was one Protestant family. The father
mother and all the children but two have
died Of starvation. In the village Of In
gierlie there was pleasant little PrOtes-
tant community, several Of whom were
members Of the church, with preacher re
siding with them, but they were poor.
This preacher went TO YOdegat and pur-
chased flour, becoming responsible for the
pay himself, and so kept alive six families.
Now, unless the preacher can be paid, his
creditors will take everything from him.

NASHVILLE. TENN. FRIDAY, AUGUSTA 1874

Mr.. Bowen 10 dismiss him, and much more
thai can't remember. He then declared
that had injured him in his family
relations, had jOined with his mOther-in-
law in producing discord in his household,
had advised separation, had alienated
his wifes affections from him, had led her
to love me more than any living being and
taught her to be insineere, lying and hypo-
critical, and ended by charging that | had
made wicked proposalsto her.
l had listened with some contempt,
under the impression that he was attempt
ing to bully me, but with the last charge
he produced paper purporting to be a Ger
tifled statement, a previous confession,
made 10 him by his wife of her love for me,
and that had made proposals to her of an
improper nature. He said that this
confession had been made to him in July,
six months previous; that his sense or
honor and affection would not permit any
such a document to remain IN existence
that he had burned the original and should
now destroy the only copy, and be then
tore the paper into small pieces.
II had been shocked at such state
ment was absolutely thunderstulek when
he closed the interview by requesting me
to repair at once to his house where he said
Elizabeth was waiting for me and learn
from her lips the truth of his
stories in so far as they concerned
her. This fell like a thunderbolt
on me. Could it be possible thar his
wife, whom had regarded as a type Of
moral goodness, should have made such
false and afrocious statements, and vet il
she had not, how would he dare to send
me,to her for confirmation of his charges?

TnE NEED OF nav MEN.

Chicago Tribune (lnd- hepl
The men who have been in public
life since 1860 have, as a class, had
their standard Of honor permanently
lowered. Moreover, they have had no
drill in the great questions OF to-day.
Free trade and specie payments have
been dead letters tor many years. The
lamentable ignoronce shown IN the re-
cent currency debates is largely the re-
suit of the election to Congress Of men
whose ideas are bounded by the issues
of anti.slavery. And, again, the Con-
gressmen of to-day are at the head Of
small armies Of paid retainers-paid
with Government offices. Those or
them who get denominations Will owe
them largely to the efforts of these
hired subordinates. The choice of new
men would break up these retlnueS
of henchmen. If right men were
chosen. new retinues of the old sort
would not be formed. Against these
weighty objections to the return of the
old members there Is something to be
urged. Such members have experience,
and. sometimes, brains. But experience
is something that IS quickly acquired IN
Washington. A man lives much there
in little time. Lack Of Congressional
experience has not prevented MIR. VIII
liam Walter Phelps from acquiring
pl ointment position during his first
term as a Representative. As for the
brains, the RELOCATION to private life OF a
majority of the Forty-third Congress
would not involve a serious dimlnutiOn
of the brain-pOwer at the disposal
of the Government 1t Is not to be
supposed that the new men chosen
would all be idiots, What the people
ought to do is to replace brains with
brains plus honor. For these reasons,
then-because the influence Of the war
and its issues upon the Congressman
of the last dozen years has been to
foster 4 disregard TO the highest law
of the land at the dictate of expedien-
cy, To inculcate blind party fealty, and
to lower the standard of honor; be-
i cause these Congressman are not tram
ed in the great questions of to-day; and
because they are the heads Of small
armies of leeches IN the body polite
which will hang upon power as long as
the Congressman dove neednew men

no white man even wound. Only one
