A Disastrous Exodus,

A large number of the colored
emigrants who left Charleston, S. c.,
on the Azor for Liberia about year
ago, reached New York last week.
They bring most unfavorable &C
count of the condition of affairs
in the African Republic, and
particularly as regards the emigrants
from the Palmetto State" The
total number of Liberian exddists who
left Charleston was three hundred
and seventy; Of these, twenty mine
died on their way to Africa, in con-
sequence of lack Of proper provision
for their health and comfort; forty
return to America. Of the remaining
three hundred, only sixty are alive,
the rest having fallen victims to the
climatic fever of the country. The
condition of this small remnant of the
Azor's passengers is terrible they
are reduced to absolute poverty,
without food, shelter OF medicine.
All Of them are anxious to return to
South Carolina, and will certainly do
so if they can raise enough money to
pay their fare honey. @. Democrat.

inmate the Indians" just as reason
able would be the cry, Externrinate the
white race for the wrongs they inAict
upon the Indians.
A large and interesting portion of
the address was devoted to a. descrip-
ton of Indian Agent Rinehart, who,
according to the speakers story, had
he'd to the Indians about their reser-
walton being Government property,
duped them into doing work for which
he promised recompense which he
never gave them, beaten them, driven
them with pistols when working in
Extensively, deprived them of the blank
cts furnished them by the Government,
and committed numerous other injuries
the effect of which had been to drive
them away, until since 1878 not an In
dian has been ON the reservation. Yet

ingtofr, ard has obtained large stores of
supplies, which he never procured
when they Were there, poor and needy
The speaker asked the very pertinent
question, "What was done with these
supplies ?" There was little left of the
red@ubtable Christian agent when she
finished him. She described him as
having right arm longer than his left,
and while. he was reckoning them to be
kind and good and honest with the one
hand, the other was busy grabbing be-
hind their backs. She wound mp her
summary of Mr. Rinehart's chatacter
with a Bit of mischievous sarcasm that
brought down the house.

THANKSGIVING DAY.
How the People OF Winnemncca
Observed IL.

Thanksgiving Day was generally
observed by thepeople of Winnemucca,
and it seemed like a cross between
Christmas and Sunday. Nearly all the
worldly observed it as holiday, and
the piously inclined assembled at the
NJ E. Church, where the services were
conducted by Rev. Mr. Riley. Only a
few, comparatively speaking, pursued
their ordinary vocations, and they
were engaged in business that could not
be neglected. There was a general on
siaught on turkey, not only by private
families, but by hotel and restaurant
boesders The dinner at the Capital
Restaurant, under the auspices of the
Busy Bees, was all that an epicure
could desire, and was well patronized.
The ball at Centennial Hall was very
pleasant affair. Although the attend
ance was not as large as anticipated.
the dance was kept upawith spirit until
