The ColOred Exodus.
[Yickshnrp Herald.l

A Herald reader has information that some
OF the colored people living at Davis Bend
are under the impression that they will be
compelled to go to Kansas, whether they like
1t or not, and that boats will be along to take
them. It seems that every possible step is
being taken, and every device resorted to, TO
drive the negroes out of the South, but why,
or for what purpose, Is beyond comprehen-
sion. Intelligent colored men, and the whites
In whom the colored plantation laborers have
confidence, should counsel and advise the
poor ignorant creatures and try to prevent
them from making fools Of themselves by
sacrificing their little property to sharpers
in order to go to Kansas The more intelIi-
gent owe 1t to the ignorant.

The Distress In Financial CIrcies-A Pur
ther Decline In Oriental hank shares.

LONDON March 2s-The daily Neps' finan-
eial article says: Much Of the dlstrust in
financial circles, which is rather whispered
than avowed, is undoubtedly the Oriental
Bank corporations open avowel Of its losses.
These should have tended In the ordinary
course OF things to allay uneaslness, but 1t
seems to have produced the opposite effect.
The result has been the depreciation in value
Of all bank shares. Rumor has been busy
assigning the large sale Of certain govern
meut stocks to necessity, but even II this is
true II Is only prudent precaution. Not the
least confirmation of the evil rumors is OBJ
tainable In quarters where full nforma-
tion would be had The Oriental Bank cor
poration shares fell ~ per cent on the day.

Gen. Butler says Mrs. Oliver sis no
chcKen, which seems to be about the truth
though she says she is Something under
thirty-nine, but won't swear she has not
passed fifty years. Yet, from the evidence,
it appears that there never was a woman
more easily imposed on by designing men
than the widow. All her life seems to have
been passed In rooms where she was locked
in By men; but yet experience taught her
nothing, Tor no sooner did she escape from
one man than she went to another, who pro-
ceeded to lock her in as usual
