THE NEGRO EXODUS.
CONFERENCE OF PROMINENT GENTLE
MEN
At St. Louis, to Consider the Subject
and to See if More Efficient Aid
Cannot be Rendered
the emigrants.

ST. LOUIS, May l2--An informal con-
ference was held here to-day by several
gentlemen, whose names are suppressed
for obvious reasons, to consider matters
relating to the negro exodus from the
South and see il more efficient aid cannot
be rendered the emigrants than has
yet been done. General Conway, OF
whom mention was made in these
dispatches last night, was a leading
spirit in the conference, and while
he says matters are not IN
proper shape yet for the public, from
a conversation with him il was gathered
that part of the project is that if the
steamboats, plying on the lower rivers
continue TO refuse To transport refugees,
he and his associates will charter a
steamer, arm her if necessary, 90 down
the river and bring up those who are
now waiting on its banks. lie says
there are two hundred at Nidalia, three
hundred at Buttonwood Bayou, five
hundred at Bass Bayou, five hundred
at Bonout, three hundred at New Car
thage and large numbers at other points
who have repeatedly hailed boats,
which would not stop. Two MEM
bers of the Society of Friends, who
have been here with Gen. Conway left
to-day for the South 20 ascertain per-
sonally to what extent these emigrants
had been denied transportation, and il
they find statements which have been
made are true, they will aid in bringing
suits against steamboat companies Tor
damages to these people uuder laws
governing common carriers. Con-
way takes the ground that these are
citizens, and have the same right to emf
crate as other citizens if they pay
their way, and ii the steamboat
companies will not transport them
other means will be used 10 bring them
away. Another conference is to be
held i'm day or two, when something
definite will be determined on. The
Colored Refugee Relief Board held
meeting to-day. and passed resolutions
in favor of sending boats down the river
to bring up refugees who have been re-
fused transportation. and instituting
proceedings against the steamboat COM
panies for damages; also endorsing Gen
eral COnway's plans and propositions
for aiding the refugees here and for
warding them to places in the North
and West, where homes and labor can
be found for them.

HABEAS CORPUS.
Decision in the Indian Cases.

OMAHA, NEB., May l2.-Some weeks
ago II. Tibbles, assistant editor OF the
Omaha Herald, engaged counsel to sue
out writ of hdbedS corpus to release
Standing Bear and party, who were be-
ing returned to Indian Territory by mill
tarv force, having fled from sickness,
which was rapidly exterminating the
tribe. Hon. J. L. Webster and Hon. y.
J. Poppleton argued the case for the In
dians without fee. Judge Dundy, ofthe
United States Court, gave a decision to-
day. The points decided are:
/. That an Indian is person within
the meaning of the laws Of the United
States, and has, therefore, TO sue out a
writ of hGbedS corpus in the federal
court and before federal judge in all
cases where he may be confined or In
custody under the color OF authority
OF the United States, or where he is re-
strained of liberty in violation OF the
Constitution or laws.
,. That General Crook, the respon-
dent, being commander of the military
department of the Platte, has the Gus
tody of the REALTORS under the color of
authority of the United States, and in
violation of the laws thereof.
8. That no rightful authority exists
for removing 10y force any OF these
Poncas to Indian territory, as General
Crook has been directed to do.
t. Indians possess the interest and
right of expatriation as well as the more
fortunate white race, and have the in
alienable right to 'life, liberty and the
pursuit of happiness" so long as they
obey the laws and do not trespass on
forbidden ground.
). Being restrained of liberty under
the color of authority of the United
States, and in violation of the laws
thereof, the REALTORS must be dischargt d
from custody, and it is so ordered.

The Pocasset horror attracts a good
deal OF attention, which, however, seems
to be misdirected. OF course there Is no
misdirection in the horror excited by
the transaction; il is the public indigna-
ton which is being aimed at the wrong
object. People are expending their ha-
tired on an individual in place OF direct
ing it at a system which insists that the
dOings Of a nation in its infacy and its
savagery shall be regarded as diyinely
given for the guidance of mankind. So
long as these examples are presented
and indorsed from the pulpit, so long
should the teachers, and not the Free
mans, be held responsible for theresult.

Consideration was resumed OF the

Mr.. Window addressed the Senate to
show that the policy OF the Democrats
is revolutionary and unconstitutional.
He said the wiser men of the eparty were
oyerruled by their vicious and reckless
party associates.
Mr.. Coke said if the federal officers
whose duty it is to enforce the National
laws, are empowered to control cleo
tions, then the authority of the State is
nullifed as it is in the election laws
now sought to be repealed and State
power oyerthrown. All history shows
the liberties of the people are safe only
in their own keeping.

of obtaining money fraudulently from
persons in Eastern States, by writing
letters reporting,the death of a stranger,
supposed to be friend OF the person to
whom the letter was addressed, and ask
ing a remittance to cover the funeral ex-
penses, &c. The prisoner refuses to
give any name and has not yet been
