hERIChN COLONIzATIO
Coiored Emis-ants from the South Their
way Go Gain New Homes in Liberia.

The bark Liberia that sailed for Monrovia
in February last with n colony Of colored emf
grants from the Southern States. has returned
to this port and is Undergoing repairs prepara-
tory to making another ti.p. She is expected TO
depart about tho Goth inst.
The colony that is to be taken out ,han is be-
ing organized in the counties Of Pas .uotal X.
Currituck. Camden. and Porquimans, North
Carolina, and Ia under the supervision OF tho
Pennyslvania Colonization Society. Tho expe-
dition IL. however. under the supervision Of tho
American Colonization Society. to which tho
Pennsylvania organization is auxiliary. Tho
sum OF 5000 has been voted to defray expenses.
The selection OF the emigrants and the man.
agoment of the expedition have been committed
to Mr.. VIM. Coppinger OF Washington, ID. G.
The making up OF the colony Is conducted with
as much secrecy az possible. as some interfer-
enco is approhcnded from the whites, who. in
the absence Of white labor. might induce the
bncks to remain. and also from u large num-
Der of their own color. who do not favor the en-
igraton scheme. The moro intelligent among

and for the section OF country from which they

from experience that white tenants at the South
are preferred to colored ones ara anxious to

The Late Extra Session.

The correspondence OF STANLEY MATTHEWS
with JAMES T.. ANDERSON, besides revealing
ono OF the most important phases in the
conspiracy by which the Presidency was
stolen, sheds light also on some other sub
jects Of public interest. 1t will be remem-
bercd that the Army bill was lost in the last
session of the Forty-fourth Congress by the
refusal Of the Senate to approve the rcduc-
ton to seventeen thousand men proposed
by the House, and the proviso forbiddng
the use of troops In Louisiana to install and
maintain the PACKARD Government.
When the Army bill failed to pass during
the term Of President PIERCE, he imme-
diately called Congress together, and in
three days tho appropriation was made.
He properly refused TO take any RESPONSE
bility not explicitly authorized by law, and
would not permit the least power ~ be ex-
ercisod By the department which could as
sumo the form of doubtful discretion. when
Mr. HAYES was indicted into the White
House, the last fiscal year had more than
three monthe TO rum and there was album
dant time to have convened Congress and
settled the disputes about the army long
before its expiration. In fact, IL was given
out from Washington that a proclamation
would be issued for an extra session toward
the close Of May or the beginning of June
Mr.. HAYES was then starting his so-callcd
Southern policy and the first expcr' nents
were unsatisfactory TO the Republicans,
who, already soured by the construction of
the Cabinet, were in no mood to follow the
lead at the White House. In his letter,
dated Cincinnati, April "a, 1877. 10 AMBER

MATTHEWS was fully informed Of HAYEs's
intentions, and he fixes the day certain
for the extra session IL was postponed
because HAYES was afraid to confront the
opposition Of tho Republicans In Congress,
and also because he wanted free hand TO
carry on the bargaining which he had com
menced In the appointment OF KEY to n
seat in the Cabinet For these personal and
political considerations the extra session
was put of until the 18th Of October, three
months and half after the fiscal year had
expired while the army was kept up to the
maximum Of twenty-five thousand men,
without the color OF law.

raised such alarm in the Fraudulent camp
was yesterday cross-cNamined Ly THOMAS b.

tho intent To discover discrepancies be-
tween hs testimony Of Saturday and that
given in Now Orleans In January of last ycnr.

aho to shake saturdays testimony or to cstab-
fish any discrepancies in il; but ANDERSON
admitted that. when before the Senate Commit
tee he had given only such evidence as served
his purpose.
In his contract with NASH. ANDERSON had
agreed 10 suppress evidence showing that the
East Feeiana parish was fairly carried 10y the
Democrats. and in his testimony on
saturday. lie said that at tho time the
agreement was signed. he had no know-
edge Of frauds in that parish. When ask
ed whether his testimony on Saturday
was true he replied that 1t was no had no
knowledge Of the frauds except that he had
sHERMASs letter in his pocket. and he knew
that the vote was to be thrown out on n forged
protest lie was not So particular about giving
the exact facts in the agreement as in getting it
in such shape that he could use il against NASH

He testified before the Senate Committee in

Club Of Monroe. Michgan-iour small. wiry.
ark-compcxoned French Canadians. They
had an old-fnshioncd. heavy. wide racing boat
with immovablc seats. II compared very unfa-
vorably with tho beautiful shell OF the Atalantas.
with its polished outrggcrs and sliding seats.
They were unframed physically. smoked drank
gin and brandy, and ate whatever the Watkins
landlord put before them. They violated all the
