TIE NEGRO E1oDUs.-A large number ct
negroes have arrived Al St. Louis recently from
Vcksburg and other points iD Mississippi aud
Louisiana, under the impression, as they assert,
that they would be provided with nesns of
subsistence HEile there, and free transportation
to Kansas, where, Oh arrival, they are to re-
ociVe l11ds from the Government, together
With moDey, mules, plows. &c. Several hua.
dred, perhaps Mor5 than thousand, have al
ready arrived. mcst Of them 10 destitute con.
diloo, and 600 more ere expected. As no such
provision rs aboVs stated has been mads Ter
these people, they having ev!de1t!y been gross
ly deceived for come malicious purpose, and 10
view of all tho circumstances in the case, Mayor
O7erstos has issued proclamation warning
ail persons agalns: coming 20 81, Louis
without money 10 support themselves I'D
to pay their f.:o 20 tnsir destination. No
must, of necessity, be much suffering and des'
titutiou aEioug these people. leo or three
hundred CT them had money coough to reach
Kapsas City, and have started for that point.
The board OF health OF 81. Louis held meet.
ing to consider the question, and it was at 6tst
thought that all the destitute should be sent to
the quarantine s.aIion, where they could te
sheltered and fed. but it was 6nally concluded
to take no action 10 tho matter ct present The
railroad and steamboat companies disclaim hav.
ing had anything to do With the affair, and the
Anchcr Line have offered to take the negroes
backs on their boats free. The matter is as.
suming great importance. aud what the end vii!

will be cared for until some other disposition

The State Prison Report.

Mr.. w. w. Rice ,ex-warden of the State Prison
has replied at length to the report of the COM
mission, which has recently investigated, or
made pretence of investigating that institu-
ton. In regard to the last valuation its cor
rectness or incorrectness Mr.. Rice says does
not concern him, as it was made by the inspec-
tors, one of whom was Democrat, without
any interference on his part. 1t is their judy
ment not his which is impeached. Mr.. Rice,
however, believes that the valuation was a fair
one. AS for the notes and accounts Mr.. Rice
says there will be no loss on them of any con-
sequence if their collection is properly attended
to. The appraisers have arbitrarily deducted
900 from the face value of these notes and
accounts, have omitted $500 which they found
of record, and have added to the debts of the
prison $500 for interest unclaimed. These
items make difference of $40 900 and account
for, all but So, 100 in the alleged shrinkage of
the balance of notes and accounts. This re-
mainder is partly chargeable to the expenses
of the prison for four months, and partly to a
probable increase of stock on hand.
Mr.. Rice says he managed the prison to the
best of his ability, and everybody who has any
knowledge on the subject and is not engaged in
manufacturing capital for political campaign
will acknowledge not only that this is true but
also that his ability was equal to the require
ments put upon it, Even the partisan COM
mission had not the courage to attack Mr..
Rice's management openly.

Better this, a thousand-fold better this, than
to permit the Federal hirelings to interfere

prevent it.
"But the business interests of the country

And yet this class of human magots are per-
mitted to interfere with the free elections of

We can tell the Yankees that there will be a
day of reckoning for this infamous outrage to
which they are subiecting us.
Here We half breeds! is a file for you to
gnaw until your jaws bleed. Gnaw it, we say:
Since January L. 1879, we have dismissed q
few scores of delinquents from our subscrp-
ton list: Within the same period less than
hfteen Southern men have withdrawn their
patronage from the States-a number that has
been very much overbalanced by the means of
new Southern subscribers-a majority of whom
we know to be Democrats.
This Union is just as hateful to us to-day,
Just as abhorrent, just as unnatural as it was
in 1861, but we have come back to stay, and,
what is more, we have come back to rule.
Why?
Because the Southdrn people and their SYM
pathiZers in the North constitute 250, 900 major
