The justice was a colored man, and prob

a srEc1AL to the CINCINNATI Gazette

a sFECIAL to the Cincinnati Gazstte from
Terre Hsute, January %. says:
The Immigrants Relief board, OF this city,
forwarded to Senator Window, tonight, the
following dispatch: "About Is families OF coll
Ored people, IN all about 100 persons. from
North Carolina, have arrived IN this city since
last Friday, and all have obtained homes and
employment, and there is a demand for 50 or
leo more families"
We are glad that the dispatch went to SEN
ator Window. The senator endeavored to be
quite merry at the last meeting of the exodus
committee because there had only been
200 negroes sent TO Indiana. This dispatch
states hat over one-half of that number ar
rived in Terre Hsute within the last week.
From all the information we can gather we
believe that nearly $500 negroes have been
brought into the Stats within the last go
days. The Terre HaUte dispatch says there
is a demand for about 100 families more in
that section. If this is SO, there is no use to
bring any more from North Carolina until
the depotof supply is exhausted here in this
city. There are at least 1000 here, who
would, no doubt. be glad of an opportunity
to get work. They had better be sent 10
Vigo county Immediately. 81 Reynolds,
United States mail sgent at the Union Depot,
can doubtless furnish the tickets, or put a
postal car at their disposal.

THE EXODUS ORGAN ON THs RAMPAGE.

We hnd the following special dispatch frorn
this city in the Chicago Trbune:
"There is no abatement of the exodus of
Carolina negroes. They continue to arrive IN
large ana small lots. Since November "a over
300 have arrived, and not one is making
money enough to provide for the necesSaries
of life. OF the $50 families in the city, fully
One-third are sick with contagious diseases"
This dispatch is the substance ola statement
made a few days ago in the organ of the
Yazoo Democracy in this city, and is out
~rageously untrue. Not more than 500 colored
emigTants have arrived In this city during the
period named. The agent of the Baltimore
and Ohio railroad Testified that the total num-
Der of tickets sold to the State had been 763,
and not all of these have come to this city.
Five hundred Is n liberal estimate. OF those
who have come here, nearly all have been
provided with places. and are now self-sus-
tanning. Many have gone TO the country. and
a large number to other counties. The num-
Der here Is not One.hfth as great as the dis
patcn states. These will soon find work, and
there is no special amount of sickness among
them. The dispatch is untrue in every par

that II Ia based on statements put forth by
the YazOo organ here for the express purpose
OF misinformfng and misleading the public.
journal.
The exodus organ seems to be excited
over the results of "a little veil-llfting from
the situation in regard to the negro COLOMBIA
ton movement of the Radical party. The
exodus organ refused 20 discuss the coming
and distributing OF the negroes until they
swarmed into the city in such dense masses
that the attention of the entire country was
attracted.
Sentinel reporters have ransacked the city
within the last 10 days, ana no one has any
idea Of the numbers of negroes who
have been qusrtered in different por-
hons of il, except those who have
made It their special business ID find out.
We are within the bounds of truth when we
state that the number who have been
brought TO Indiana will not fall short of
$500. Our reporters found them suffering
for food, clothing and the merest
necessities Of life. Scarlet fever, diph-
iberia and other dangerous diseases
were prevalent. The city dispensary,
at the time our account was given to the
public, had been furnishing for the previous
month an average Of 20 prescriptions daily.
Our account gave the streets where these
suffering negroes were to be found, and

Meanness to Ministers.
New YORK Ledger.l


Rev. Mr. Jack, pastor of the First Presby-
terrain church, of Hazleton, Pa, in speaking
of the marriage fees received by %clergymeD,
informed US a few days ago that he mas never
received over $25 q year from that source.
He says that he does not know why 1t lie,
but that on such occasions people generally
show their meanness and that, too, at q
time when one would think they would be
most liberslly disposed. On one occasion a
man whom be married gave him a piece of
brown paper. He expected to find the fee
rolled up in it, but on opening it there ives
nothing there. Az another time he married
a man who said he had no money, but would
pay him in the course of a few weeks. He
has not heard from him since. Perhaps
this man was disappointed in his bride. and
did not think the marriage ceremony was
worth paying for.
Rev. DR.. Forsyth, OF West Point, tells US
that be has had q somewhat similar expert
ence.

IT is Unfortunate for the Democracy of the
whole country that the leaders in New
York carry into the party a spirit of bitter
ness and revenge. II that selfish devotion
to the cause was manifested among the ex-
ponents of Democracy in the Empire State
that we have here IN Indiana, New York
would certainly not be classed as doubtful.
There is no self-seeking between those dis
tinguished gentlemen of Indiana who have
been mentioned by the press as worthy of
the chief msgistracy. The noble and patriot
ic attitude of the Democratic leaders in this
State entitle them to the highest considera-
ton OF the party throughout the whole
country.

THE INSANE HOSPITAL.
What j. Thought of DIR. Rogers at His Old
Home.
LMadison Cour!er, Rep.l

Madison Courier, Rep.l
1t is our belief, after reading all that has
been published about the ICsane Hospital,
that the charges against its management are
5 .nsational and unworthy of credence.
''Jsyhawker," Of the Cincinnati Enquirer, is
a professional writer-up OF sensations, and
it is the policy of the paper be represents to
publish things that will create excitement
and notorlety rather than solid and accurate
news. The Indianapolis Journal has sec
onded Woodlands effort to bring the institu-
ton INTO disrepute, but, As We think, with
out sufficient evidence. The News Of In
dianapolis and the People, both independent
papers, dismiss the charges as made upon the
testimony OF an irresponsible person, and
the correspondents OF the Cincinnati Com
mercial and Gazette take. g like view OF the
situation. This distressing feature of the
case is the anxiety and grief it oauselessly
inficts upon the thousands OF people in the
State who have friends at the Hospital un-
dergoing treatment. Separated from their
friends and ignorant of the motives which
have prompted the publication of these
horrible accusations the relatives OF the
patients must suffer untold misery before
they can ascertain that the charges are
~groundless. And even when assured of
the falsity of the exposure" hun
dreds OF women will never be
able to to eradicate from their minds
a suspicion that the tales of mistreatment
may be true, and the unfortunates whom
they love so ~passlonately may be undergoing
torment or brutal handling. These are con-
siderations which should have restrained
the sensstionalist from perpetrating their
great wrong. Not only have they slsndered
Superintendent Rogers, who is as kind and
humane and as we'll fitted for the position
he occupies as any physician in the State,
but they have overwhelmed hundreds of
families with painful doubts and agonizing
impressions. This sort Of sensationalism IN
journalism ought to be discontinued at once

ADeathbed Scene in Leadvi,,e.

lLeadville Democrat.
1t 2:20 o'clock this morning tbe dying
Gertrie Hosmer awoke from unconscious
ness, and, opening her large blue eyes, said
to thoee about her bed that she was ready to
go. Then, in tones as clear and firm as
the early Sabbath bell, she sang the beauti-
full ballad, "See that My Grave is Kept
Green" The scene was most affecting. There,
leaning over the head Of the dying girls
bed, stood the widowed mother, and close to
her side the two brothers At the foot was
the physician and Rev. DR.. McKabee of the
Episcopal church. All were in tears.
When the last stanza OF the p~laintive song
was finished the dying girl. looking mp into
her mothers face, said: Good by, mamma;
Pm going now. Good.by; | love you, man.
ma. Good-by, dear brothers. l love you

scious.
