The Exodus Increment,

a Washington dispatch to tho Baltimore
San says:
Tho "Emiyrant Aid Society" has issued
from its headquarters in this city an appeal
to tho philsntbropic people of the North for
aid and sympathy in helping the exodus of
the colored people of the South. The docs
umeut, which is somewhat lengthy, is of tho
most highly iullamcd partisan character, re-
failing the worn out ISLANDERS against the
white people of the South, aud painting the
present condition of the negroes as "worse
than slavery" It is stated that tho society
is dero;ing its attention to the matter of or
ganizing tho westward movement and giving
it proper and intelligent direction. Tho in
formation is conveyed that it will require
"rcady money in considerable quantity" to
carry out the objects of the society, and this
the people OF tho North nro notified that they
are expected to provide. It is stated that a
national advisory committee has been formed.
with Senator Window as chairman, and COM
posed of leading citizens of the various States
and Territories. From what has already
trauspircd of tho objects and purposes of
those who have been prominent in tomenting
tho exodus it can be we'll surmsed that tho
t'proper and intelligent direction" which is
spoken of will be Correction" to localities
where political aims are to be subserved-
the State of Indiana, for instance. Among
the officers of the society through whom what
ever contributions that are received from tho
North will be dispensed are several persons,
both white and colored, who have long been
known as noted partisaus of the Republican
rarity,

require the earnest application OF tho scio Itifc

properties. for in tho vegetable world a kindly
providence has placed healing for all natous.-
The only specifics for any disease yet discovered
are vegetable in their nature; and while quinne

taking its place as sovereign remedy for other

the fellow. Before he received the $40

Mr.. Labouchere tells good story of
Lord Lyons, the bachelor minister of
Great Britain at Washington during
the presidency of Mr.. Lincoln. On the
birth of Prince Albert Victor of Wales
his lordship called on the President to

ing kind on hand. When Lord LYONS

up as if starting out of doze, chucked
the English minister under the ribs and

CONCENTRATED FooD FOR HORSES
1t is known that the Russian and Prus-
sian Government have adopted kind
of biscuit for horses, containing much
nutritive matter in small volume. Ac-
cording to La Nature, the biscuits are
formed of the meal of oats, peas, and
linseed. The various combinations have
been studied with care, and a mixture
has been obtained such that one kilo-
gramme of it is equivalent to five kilo-
grammes of oats. 1t has been found
that horses bear fatigue better and are
more vigorous when fed with these
biscuits than when fed with oats. The
biscuits can be threaded together by
means of an iron wire thus a horse
may carry its own food for four or five
days. During the late war with Tur-
key, Russia used 20,OOO,OOO, of these
biscuits, and the results was so good
that the authorities have continued
their use in time of peace. In France,
it is stated, feeding horses with such
biscuits, would be little more expen-
sive than feeding with oats. When,
however, they have become more com
mon, there are various instances in
which, on account of their easy trans
port, it will be advantageous to use
them-wherever in general, animal
strength has to be employed at dis
tance and it is undesirable to carry pro-
visions of large volume.

The list of Alpine accidents is long

one American name. A fortnight ago,
as party of tourists from the United
States were driving from Martigny on
the way to Chamotnix, their carriage
was overturned, and Mrs. Wright, a
lady from New York, fell into the gorge
which borders the road, and was killed
on the spot. A few days previously,
some ladies from Paris met with sim

Morez, when two of them were badly
hurt, one so dangerously that she is not
expected to recover. On the same day

The poet Whittier, writing to Kansas,
pays that state neat little tribute !:
mo one of your sister states has such
a record as yours so full of peril and
adventure, fOrtitude, self-sacrifice and
heroic devotion to freedom. Its bap-
tism of martyr blood not only saved the
state to liberty, but made the abolition
of slavery everywhere possible"
