THE NEGRO EXODUS.

Washington, March 30.-The senate ex.
odus committee to-day examined John G.
Lewis, colored: a resident of Natchitoches
Parish, Louisiana, and an ex.member Of the
Packard legislature. In answer to the gen.
eral question as to the causes of the exodus,
Lewis began BY stating that the colored peo-
pie in Louisiana have had, since 1874, "a
very uphill road to travel" As a race
they are verv jealous of the political and
civil rights recently conferred upon them,
and. whenever any of these rights are with
drawn'or denied to them, they naturally
feel discontented. Their political rights, he
said, had been denied them. and this was
the prime cause of the exodus move
ment. Another cause was unfair
treatment by the owners of land
and merchants. Every possible ~advantag.
has been taken of them, and, feeling ae-
grieved, they had looked around for relief,
and the only solace offered is to emigrate.
Witness thought the exodus would continue
on the increase, but that it would not assume
greater proportions to the west than hereto
fore as q great many would go to Texas and
the border. In the state of Texas, he said,
there are = great many German settlers. and
the colored people have more faith in the
tib~erty.loving German than in the while
people Of Louisiana. In Texas, he thought,
the Germans would allow them to vote as
they please, even if they do not vote as
Germans might desire. The election
Of a democratic president in 1880,
witness thought, would create
CONSERVATION among the colored people of
the south. and they would endeavor to go,
as they went 10 Kansas, pell nell, anywhere
where they felt sure they would be treated
better than In the south.
Mr.. Vance asked Mr.. Lewis whether, if
the negroes behaved themselves, this bull
doing would not stop.
Witness replied that. in the first place, be
thought they did behave themselves, and,
as they bad behaved themselves during the
war and before they were emancipated, BY
remaining at home working for their mas.
tiers. he asked the senator if it was reasona.
bic to think they would not behave them
selves as freemen.
Without concluding the examination of
the witness. the committee adjourned.

Mr.. Hibbison was away from home at the
time of the fire, helping 4 neighbor dig a
we'll. Along in the afternoon, his wife. who
is in poor health, went out to the stack to
get an armfal of hay for fuel. She returned
to the house with the hay and laid it in the
corner of the dwelling near the stove, and
then returned for another armful. While
she was gone the second time, Emma, q lit
tie girl, aged i've years, took q whisp of
hay, lighted it with a match and put the
lighted hay in the stove. The match which
she had lighted, burning her fingers, she
dropped it unknowingly in the hay pile BY

matter was . livid sheet of flame. The. floor
and wallis being Of pine, and the wallis being
lined With taxpayer, the fire from the hay
Immediately communicated with them and
they, too, we're all ablaze instantly.
Meanwhile. Emma succeeded in saving
two of the little children, aged about Two
and four wears respectively, by carving
them out OF the burning house, the little
being so badly frightened as to be in-
capable Of moving. In returning the last
time to the Inflated house for her little baby
sister, she was overcome with heat and
smoke, and
