good, which proves that the condition Of
our people, financially, is improving. Our
farmers have economical in every possible
way, and are now reaping their reward,
while our merchants are enabled not only
to balance their books, but to hold out
superior inducements to the trading public.

is attack, which was so severe at first that

that lie will be again restored to health.
We trust his restoration will be complete

with the white people, and that they should
make their arrangements to leave this coun-
try and 60 to Liberia as soon as possible
