RIGHTS OF COLORED CITIZENS

THEIR EXCLUSION FROM THE EMPIRE OF
BRAZIL COMMENTED UPON BY THE
AMERICAN-FoREIGN ANTI-sLAvEY So
cIErY-CoRREsPoNC WITH SEC
sErARY EvARTs-THE LATE BENJAMIN
F. WADE.
The American. Foreign Anti-slavery
Society of this city has remained in q
dormant condition ever sincg the Emanci-
patton Proclamation of Abraham Lincoln
went into effect. But two recent events
have revitalized 1.-THE death Of Benjamin
F. Wade and the prohibition against
American colored citizens entering the
Empire Of Brazil as laborers or otherwise.
A meeting of the Executive Committee
Of the society was held last evening, and a
touching tribute was made to the memory
of the "grand old man." who, he said, was
the life long friend of the campion of the
oppressed man.
RIGHTS OF AMERICAN CoLoRED CITIZENS
The secretary read a correspondence
with Secretary Of State, William. M
Eyarts, in regard to the refusal Of thu
authorities OF Brazil to admit American
colored citizens within the Empire. 1t wa
stated by the chair and others that unde
an old law passed in 1882 Brazil prohib
tied the Introduction of free American cit

WEALTH AT OUR DOORS.

THE INITIAL MOVE OF MExIco's FINAL
AND MOST DESIRABLE REVOLUTION.
When.the N Y Chamber of Commerce met
Thursday, Mr.. de eZsmaconi, Special Agent
of the Mexican Government to this country
was introduced as the bearer of a CONNER
cial olive branch. Mr.. de Zamacono said
that in the shop windows of the avenues
Of New Yoak he saw many articles Of
commerce that are unknown but needed in
Mexico, and that many products of Mex
leo are needed in the United States. The
latter for instance 60 to Messina for
oranges, while choice fruits grow at their
very doors. A fibre is grown in Mexico,
too, out of which better paper may be
made than from any other known product.
The two countries commercial interests
are identical, and thould be made one.
Mexico's mines contain more mineral than
those of Nevada and California, and no
country can so easily and cheaply supply
the United States with coffee and sugar
What is needed 10 enable the two coun.
tries to trade toadvantage with each other
is multiplication Of the facilities Of COM
munication. The number of steamboa
lines should be increased; and great in
ternational railroad should be built.
Mr.. de Zamaoono was heatily ap
plauded.

A CIRCASSIAN ATTROCITY.

ALMOST THE ENTIRE POPULATION OF A
VILLAGE sMeTHEREp.
The Constantinople correspondent ofthe
London Daily News, writing under date Of
February 18th, says. "u.

abominabIe and unheardof-crime,in in itself
a colossus Of savagencss, whole abyss Of
atrocity, have most authentic and relia-
BILE information, though for the sake Of
humanity, would bave been glad were
it otherwise.
at appears that the inhabitants of the
village of St. George, 300 souls in all,
Greeks entirely, flying before the Circas-
slams, who had attacked and destroyed
their village, managed to hide themselves
in a large cave near K1a Dele. The
Circassians, ever thirsty for Christian
blood, secured the country in search Of
victims. and finally fell upon and discov-
cred the place of refuge Of those unfortu-
nate people, and Immediately tried to ef-
feet an entrance into the cave. In this,
however, they were baffled, the entrance
to the cave being we'll guarded and brave
ly defended by the refugees.
This show of resistance on the part Of
the people, and the TACT, perhaps, tina
three of their number were mortally

but without suceess, thsy determined by
any possible means to put Immediately to
death those within They accordingly
set to their Internal work, and by means
of erow.bars they -ultimasely succeeded in
opening a hole on the roof of the cave,
throug h which, without loss of time, they
proceeded to pour large quantity Of
birthstone and asphalte TO which they
set fire by firing their guns through the
hole. AS consequence, the inside Of the
cave was in few minutes filled with
smoke 20, dense that the poor people
dropped down one BY one, dying Of suffo-
cation; v and the souls Of 800
martyrs fed almost simultaneously to-
wards the foot of the throne Of their Crea-
tor, the Almighty. sNsBs8,
"Out of the 800 who entered the cave
only eighteen were saved, almost by a
miracle, having on first entering the cave
taken their stand at the end Of it, and
having, after the Circassians had taken
themselves of exulting no doubt in theil
abominable work, come out of that i'm

ONE OF THE MOST PROMINENT LAND
MARKS IN MONTANA TUMBLEs TO THE
PLAIN. T. . -a.. aal F,
(From the Helena independently
Nearly every resident of Montana has
either seen or heard of the famous Bear
Tooth mountain the most prominent land
mark in northern Montana. 1t is visible
from different points at distances ranging
from forty to sixty miles, and is in full
view from Helena and the surrounding
country. The mountain is distant about
thirty miles from Helena, and stands like
grim and mighty sentinel at the end Of the
canon known as the Gate of the Noun
tains, through which flows the Missouri
river. The Bear Tooth was fully described
as a wonderful landmark of the early ex-
plorers. Lewis and Clark. In all photo
graphs Of the northern country the two
tuskks, rising black and grim hundreds Of
feet above the mountain, are the prom
inent objects. The main tusk remains,
looking lonely aud isolated in its granduer.
Last Monday a party of hunters, who
were chasing game several miles north Of
the Bear Tooth, observed rumbling
sound and a quakipg of the earth, and
supposiDg it was an earthquake, and not
noticing a repetition ofit, they soon forgot
the occurrence, and continued their chase
until they reached the Bears Tooth. Here
they were astonished by the appearance o.
the eastern tusk. This was perpendic-
uIar mass of rock and earth, fully 500 feel
high, 300 feet in circumference at its base
and $50 feet at the top. This immens'
mass had become dislodged, and cominl
down with the speed of an avalanche ha'
swept through forest Of large timber 70
a qaaiter Of mile, entirely levelling it
The country around is now covered with
great mass Of broken trees and tons upo
tons of rocks, many of them as large as
ordinary house.
