The Alexandria IVA q zette, of

the depot of the Alexandria and
Washington Railroad. this morning,
young coored woman trying TO
make her way back to Nor'h Caroli>
ma. She stated that she had been
induced to leave pleasant home, in
her native State and g. to Indiana.
Arriving at Indianapolis, she was
stationed 10 a church, packed with
emigrauis Of her own color, from her
owe section, where she was compell-
ed to remain two or three weeks res
ceiving only ono meal day, aud
that very poor one.
10 reply to an inquiry as to how
the emigrants were treated, she said
that they were treated like dogs, and
if the people were disposed to treat
them otherwise, they were not in
condition to Go so for they had as
much as they could do to take care
of themselves. The emigrants can
not procure work and are dying from
cold and starvation. She is loud in
her condemnation Of the men who
Influenced her to sell all she had and
leave her home, and said that if she
ever got back she would remain and
die there, where she bad always
been treated with kindness by the
white people.
