Consul Thompson, at st. Thomas,
finds that freedoRdoes not agree, for
the present, at least, with the negro
population Of that island.
With the abolition of slavery, in
1913, the planters and most Of the
merchants sold out and left. The ne
grloes Aocked to town, and began to
exc out a %preoarious existence as por-
tors, stevedores, cooks, washers, and
domestics generally, and, in some cases
BARRIERS, huxters and herb doctors
The magnificent country homes and
plantations dwindled into what are
now called estates upon which, here
and there, are coal kilns, vegetable
patches, and a few scrubby cattle, long
ietlOeked ponies, like the mustang
found upon the prairies Of western
Texas, only smaller. and asses weigh
ing from 100 to 250pounds. These in
part supply the local demand. Other
wise, a waste o. prickly, scrubby I'M
dergrowth occupies places where in
dustry once held sway.

The status Of the Senate

The status of the United States sen
ate in the Forty-seventh congress,
which meets on or after next 4th OF
March, was practically determined by
the election of Hon. Howell Il. Jack.
son as senator from Tennessee. Mr..
jackson is a democrat, and a member
of the "d~ebt-payer" faction Of his
party in that state. There is only one
more senator to be elected, from
Pennsylvania, where the contest
between the Cameron faction and
the republican opposition contin-
ues to be both warm and uncer-
tain. 1t is we'll understood,
however, that Mr.. Wallace's sue
cessor will be a republican. Thus, in
the next senate there will be37 demo-
Gratis and the same number Of repub-
licans, with the addition Of Judge
Davis, Of Illinois, who, while repre-
senting the third party" has usually
voted with the democrats, and Mr..
Malone, of Virginia, "readiuster'
democrat, who is reported to have de-
clared it to be his principle never to
vote before going to the polls. The
senate of the United States has sell
dom, if ever, been SO equally divided
on party issues, and never before has
it had to encounter the charming
uncertainty of the two odd members.
