The negro exodus from the South engaged
the attention OF tho Methodist ministers at their

TANDERBILT IT'S MILLIONS.
One Million for Cornelius j. ana 81 90. 900
for Mr.. scott Lord.

New YORK, May 9.-There is much I'M
printed gossip in this city over the recent settle
ments in the Vanderbilt family litigation and
the dislngenuous attempts 20 make the same
rebound to the credit Of VIM. II. Vanderbilt
From u trustworthy source to-day your cor
respondent learned the following facts: That
the discontiuuance of the suits was a compro-
misc agreed upon beforehand, and that VIM.
ii. Vanderbilt was obliged 10, accept i to
prevent his crOss-eXamlnatiOn by Mr. Scott
Lord. Cornelius Nanderhilt's counsel The
latter had warned tho millionaire. VIM. H..
that he must expect n rigid and penetrating in
quiry into his private AFFAIRS, and must not
only tell whit he was worth. hut also what
spcculntions he had gained money in and in
what ventures he had lost money since the death
o. his father. VIM. II. could not brook this
opening mpot money bags under the eyes OF the
greedy Wall street sharks. and he is under
stood To have said that he WAS willing to give a
million dollars rather than have that done. The
rest was only the matter OF finesse. Cornelius
was perfectly willing to say that he dscOn-
tinued the suits q. his own free will. and
that his, brother William had paid him u
Lord was perfectly willing to say thar all he
knew about the case was that his client had in
slruetced hin To- diseoninIG the o suits Blu!
which he used to pay up old debts. among them
the Greeley debt, and his expenses in the iti-

Mr. Cornelius Vanderbilt. after cordially
greeting THE SUNS representative. read the
foregoing through attentiVely. and then, at the
suggestion Of Il friend, who seemed to be Of n
cautious turn of mind. Mr.. Vanderbilt sat down
and dictated tho following:

as unything is to be gained by suppress

men a this type do not hesitate 10 take
advsu1gs Of their position; but under
the arhtsfy governmental methods Of
