tented and prosperous. All who are in
clined to work may find employment here,

The Colonization Society, which has
been in existence nearly seventy years
and has done all that has been done up to
the present time IN sending c0lOred people
to Liberia, is especially anxious TO send a
a large number of colorcd people to that
country just now, as they believe that the
arrival OF 10000 new people in that cOun-
try would forever settle the veXed bound
airy question now disturbing its govern
ment and people. They are making
strong efforts to OBTAIN a large sum tor
this purpose, and it is not impossible that
they will appeal to Congress for loan or
a donation of 81, 100000 for this purpose.
This plan has been recommended by the
Committee on Emigration, and it may be
presented to Congress at the coming ses-
sion. AUSTIN.
