Deluded NeGrOeD.

A large number of negroes recently ar.
rived at St. Louis from Vicksburg and other
parts of Mississippi and Louisiana under the
impression, ~ they assert, that they would
be provided with means of subsistence
while at St. Louis, and free transportation
to Kansas, where on arrival they are to re-
ceive lands from the government, money,
mules, plows, etc. Several hundred, per-
haps more than thousand, have already
reached st. Louis. As no such pl DIVISION as
above stated has been made for these peo-
pie, they having evidently been grossly de.
ceived Tor some malicious purpose, and in
view of all the circumstances in the case,
Mayor Overstolz, Of st. Louis, on the 10Th
inst, issued q proclamation warning all
persons against coming to st. Louis without
money to support themselves, and to pay
their fare to their destination. No employ.
ment can be obtained, and there must of
necessity be much suffering and destitution
among them. The railroad and steamship
companies disclaim having had anything to
do with the affair, and the Anchor line have
offered to take the negroes back on their
boats free. The matter is assuming great
importance, and what the end will be no
one can tell.
