A COLOR WAR" seems imminent in
Liberia. The agitators, under the
lead of a full-blooded negro from the
Vest Indies, are striking high, aiming
at no less parsonage than President
Robert !, who does not happen to be of
pure African breed. Roberts is said
to be very much embarrassed about
it. It was to be supposed that the
peace of the Republic was disturbed
sufficiently by the incursions of saw
ages and other warlike people. To be
sent all agog now with an internal con-
fiict having shade test for it's basis
seems to be very ridiculous under the
and il not calculated
to increase the public sympathy for
the Republic in its troubles.

The Charlotte Riot.

The Observer OF yesterday gives .
circumstantial account of the riot
which took plsce in that city on Chris
N as day. from which We make the fol-
lowing extracts. We have heard from
other sources that another negro had
died from wounds received on this oc>
casion, but since the Observer does
not mention this fact, and, at the same
| time gives 40 account of she inqnest
held over the ody of the negro, J John-
son, we tnke it, that this report is un-
true.

Dec, mber 9th, closed on Thursday
night. The fair, with the exception of

held in that city and Eet with a sue

ed at the c]osr of the fair. Miss Rachel

offered for the most 'favorite lady"
she received the largest number of
votes. The result of the fair pecunia-

receipts were Sl35, 900 aud the total
expenses but $25, 5000. leaving a net
profit for the Mt Sinai Hospital of
$4,000. Of the amount S99, 900 is
due to the sinkipg fund of the hospi-

Once it was said that they were sbriRht,
promising lads; once they looked happily
into. the kface iOf mothers whose daily
breath was a prayer for their purity and

Social Binds.

sItis Wonderful how the birds love the
companionship of men. Even the Indian
recognizes this liking,v and puts up his
gourd-she11s for the purple martin; the
colored man of the south, in like manner
sets up a calabash, while in our villages
are seen martin-houses, often evincing
taste i'm their construction. But the
American swallows formerly kept laloof
from men, and in the far west the martin
still, as of old, builds in hollow trees.
Some ofYeur migratory birds are seen
with us in the winter. This is explained
by the agricultural habits of men.
Wherever agriculture fiourishes, so will
insects, and the fields of the husbandman
are thus, attractive ltothe birds, who come
thither with their sweet voices and good
deeds. Now, this fact does in time great
ly modify the migration Impulse. The
blde-bird is a frequent visitor Of our gar
dens in winter, though not in large num-
bers. He now finds his food i'm the Larvae
of those insects which are the pests of
the farm ianGlit is pleasant to watch him

and rails fofHthis foodso t1,G9 - sso20Tq
