MOVEMENT TO PREVENT FURTHER MIGRATION
.t.. FROM TIE SOUTH.
ST. LOUIS, August lit appears that
the party of colored men who passed
through here last night was gotten up
by merchants and planters in Missis-
sippi with the view OF giving such ne
groes as wish an opportunity to go
West to judge OF the country for
themseIves-if they like it to remain. and
il otherwise to return. Many planters ap-
prehend that after the present cotton crop
from the South. and this excursion was
gotten up in the belief that the representa-
tive colored men who might go would he
disappointed and return, and that their un-
favorable accounts would prevent any ex-
tensiye migratory movement OF the negroes.
