Brooklyn Presbytery met to make a final
disposition Of Rev. DR. Talmage's case. The
attendance was small. Rev. Drs iaImage
and Van Dyke were absent, but the friends
the former were present In full force. Mod
orator Ludlow didn't appear, but sent letter
Of resignation. After several declined to serve
as moderator pro tenn, Brother johnson, one
Of TaImage's friends, was induced to serve.
A committee was appointed to defend Tai
mage in the case q Pr. Van Dykes appeal
tion Of DR.. Spear the preamble prefacing the
specifications against DR. Talmage was taken
up and indefinitely postponed.
DR.. Davidson then offered q minute which
did not reflect on TaImage's methods, nor

was adopted. those who had voted Talmage
guilty Of the charges brought against him

From the New Orleans Times. I
The Negro Exodus.

1t is useless to attempt to disguise the
fact that there is o serious disturbance in
beveral parishes of this State among the
negro agricultural laborers. Large mum
bers of them precipitately fed from the
btnte TO seek homes in Kansas and other
Western parts. We hope--we believe that
this exodus has Somewhat abatcc, but still
the question of the propriety and feasibility
of leaving en- massc is being seriously dis
Guessed in many portions of the State by
the blacks, and has just been the subject of
consideration by convention OF colorcd
leaders in this city. We cannot tell how
soon the emigration and cxpatriation of
these people may again set ID, nor to what
extent it may 20. This we do know, how
ever, that the planting Interests have slready
suffered in some places, and TINT if some
thing is not dono to check and TO prevent
the recurrence Of the movement, The agri-
cultural industries of the State will be
seriously affected. The most i'm ortant
! element 10 the wealth of this State is this
| class Of agricultural laborors. Whatever of
valuo the land has, depends upon them.
Let them remove from the State, aud until
they can bo replaced, the cane and cotton
lands will remain approximately as valueless
as desert waste. it would be practically
impossible to replace our aborcrs. The
tide of European emigration sets Westward,
und not to the South.
The time has passed when this threat
ened departure of colored people can be
prevented by politicians. Their methods
havo been tficd-their promises have been
weighed and found wanting. Indeed, they
arc incapable, as class, of understanding
the situation, or else they are so usinccre
as to be unworthy of belief and confidence
This is shown from the way ia which they
have discussed the difficulty. Instead of
at onoo accepting tho fact that the cmigra--
tion Of the negroes is tho result of dissatis-
faction with their surroundings and sense
of insecurity, from what evbr source in-
spired, these politicians have continued to
assert That tho movement was originated
in tho North; that it is political
schcmo Of tho enomics of tho South and is
not the result Of local causes. That thore
arc men in the North who arc aecking to
fomont these troubles out Of mere political
hatred of tho South wo bolieve, that thero
are other unrcasoning fanatics who arc
seizing this opportunity to sorve the negro
as thoy believe, regardless Of tho oonse
quences to thoir own race, is also truo.
But Northern politicians and philautbro.
pists could not have induced tho expatriaa
tion Of q hundred pegto families but for the
belief that has settlod upop tho minds Of
their race that they cannot have justice in
the land of their birth. TO eradicate this
belief, to re.inspire the colored race with
confidence and thus cheok tho exodus, will
be tho Work Of a different GLASS Of uien

Widow Green's Last Words,

Symptoms Of a DiseasedLiver

pAIN in the right side, under the
edge of the ribs, increases on pres
sure; sometimes the pain is in the left
side; the patient is rarely able to lie
on the left side; sometimes the pain is
felt under the shoulder blade, and it
frequently extends to the top of the
shoulder, and is sometimes mistaken
for rheumatism in the arm. The
stomach is affected with loss Of appc-
tite and sickness; the bowels in gen
eral are costive, sometimes alternative
with lax; the head is troubled with
pain, accompanied with dull, heavy
sensation in the back part. There is
generally a considerable loss Of mem
ory, accompanied with painful SEN
sation of having left undone some
thing which ought to have been done.
a slight, dry cough is sometimes an
attendant. The patient complains Of
WEAKNESS and debility; he is easily
startled, his feet are cold or burning,
and he complains Of prickly sensa-
ton Of the skin; his spirits are low;
and although he is satisfied that exer-
else would be beneficial to him, yet
he. can scarcely summon up fortitude
enough to try it. In fact, he distrusts
every remedy. Several Of the above
symptoms attend the disease, but cases
have occurred where few Of them cx-
listed, yet examination Of the body,
after death, has shown the LIVER to
have been extensively derangcd.
