A WHOLESALE JoB.-For an immersion
scene among the colored people nothing
has of late occurred quite SO jubilant as
the ceremony in the Appomottox river
at Pittsburg, Va. a Sunday or two ago.
1t was a great day for the Blacks, who
covered the ground overlooking the bap
tismaI spot by thousands. The bridges
were crowded and many boats were an,
chored in the stream filed with specta-
tors. At the hour of the services a
thousand voices chanted an anthem,
while long column of converts march
down in order to the water. There they
were addressed by the preacher, who
then went up to his waist IN water, and
plunged the candidates as they were
passed along to him between two lines
of men,. Five hundred were thus dips
ped in the muddy waters, to their IN
bounded joy. In fact, when each con-
vert came out of the water he began
the most extravagant manifestations, at
times, that it often required the strength
of four or five able-bodied men to quiet
them. Immediately after the ordinance
the converts were, attired in a regular
uniform and formed in line. A process
sion was then formed, numbering about
ten Thousand, who marched back to the
church, where the jubilee continued,
amidst the greatest enthusiasm. fseD

"THE' BENDERs. 1t is yet decid
ed that the old man taken to Topeka is
the real Bender. Several persons have
identified him, and others say they know
he is not the assassin. VIM. Tholen, Of
Leavenworth, who visited him in hi.
cell. managed to get an Ineligible state
ment from the old man. He claims tC
be Johannes Koch, from Winterlingen
county, Wurtemburg, and that his sis
ter is married to Hans Jorg Stieber and
lives in Buffalo. That being threatened
with consumption, he was advised to
live IN the open air, and made his way
westward, living by hunting until he
froze his hands and feet and became
helpless. A woman captured as Mrs.
Bender, and confined in the same prison,
turns out TO be thetravelling missionary
of g Christian Israelites who held
forth in Ogden some time ago, and was
travelling back to the East, and acting
curiously, was baited and badgered for
Bender till she was nearly driven era
zy. She has been liberated. The young
woman arrested in Utah as Kate Ben
der is still il durance there, and it is
not known whether she is the Kansas
murderesS or not. L
