THE LIRRRuAN EXODUS.
shreveport Times. ]


It seems from the following circular
that found it's way into our sanctum
Yesterday that the colored people OF shis
section OF the country are In earnest
about emigratiDg to that land where all
the natural productions grow In the
greatest profusion; where gold and sill
yer are em bedded only h few feet under
the ground, and are Of 80 little value
that the natives do not care To tax their
time and patience gathering them up.
1t is the land of plenty, a land OF free-
dom and we advise all the black people
who cannot make living In this cOtin-.
try and maintain themselves as lords to
go as soon as possible to Liberia, the
paradise OF the black man.
LII we were q Moses we would gladly
stretch our right fielder across the vastly
deep, and save all our colored friends
who want to migrate to this land OF
milk and honey, ferriage:

KINGSTON, De Soro PARISH, Sept. rs.
TO all the coiored people Of the parish OF DsSoto.
Be 1t resolved, That we, the colored
citizens OF the parish OF De Soto. having
taken within consideration, looking
back to the trouble Of twelve years ex-
perience, and we see the great troubles
that have befaIlen us, go we now do say
that we, as u people, cannot make a sup
port for ourselves and our families.
Secondly, we cannot educate our race.
Thirdly, we cannot control our daily
and homely labor.
Fourthly, We cannot enlist ourselves
as free people.
Filthy, we cannot be in subjection to
| one another.
Sixthly, we cannot appreciate the
cause OF religion as we should.
Then we ask you all IL you do not
think that it is time for US to begin to
see? Yes. We say that we are just now
awaken. SO now we say that we will do
as Jesus said to the poor afflicted man
saying, rise, take up thy bed and
walk" " and We say, by the help of God
We will take the second Egyptian travel.
and we ask every man that has drop
OF colored blood in him to come and
rally with as.
We hear that there is a land that we
can inherit, andif we cannot get q sep
arate inheritage, we are determined tn
go, God being our helper. There will
be many things said to discourage us.
but We will not hear them. We fear wa
have heard too many things OF that sort
already. We fear we cannot treat our
wives as III they were human. We al
most drive them as il slaves into the

there is no comfort there, for We have
nothing to give them 10 eat worth eat
