When the officers arrived at the jail

The Jail officers refused to allow the re.

The colored boarding -honsss in New
York during the last four or five weeks
have been head over ears in business,
owing to the extraordinary rush OF mp
p~licants for accommodation to Liberia.
Last week the places became so crowded
that rooms were to be had only at a high
premium and a great many proprietors
were Obliged to turn away large numbers
OF applicants. Thirteen colored families
arrived from Florida several days ago,
and only hall OF them could secure accom-
mediation until they were able to sail
on The Moravia for Liberia. Africa.
They are pilgrims seeking the land Of their
fathers. whore they belive brighter and
happier days await them. The ~unfortu-
nate families that could not find rooms
passed a sleepleHs night. People would
not receive them. and they wandered hope
lessly around, the mothers with infants in
their arms.
The American Colonization SOCIETY has
given them free passage to Liberia. The
society also gives zach man who goes to
Liberia ten arees Of land. besides a house,

time he IS supported BY the society. Each
head IL the family gets twenty five instead

named Andrew Granstaff was arrested for

dntions have been laid at his door. but he
has never been arrestedfor them. The arr
rest was made by G.. o.. Farrell oftho Pink
erton Detective Agency OF Chicago who
has done y~igilant work during the twenty.
four hours he has been on the ground.
In substance Grandstaff's confession is
that be called at brakes house and asked
for a drink, which was given him. Then he
demanded money. Drake refused, and be
shot him dead. Mrs. Drake, who was put.
ting the children 70 bed, ran out and met
hef death. The children were both awake
when their throats were cut. The murder
err riied the house and fed. This does rot
fully agree with the position OF the bodies.
At q lato hour one thousand determined
men surrounded the jail, but the anthor-
tiles refused to give up the prisoner. The
barricades were then broken down and the
officers were overpowered. An hour wa
spent in breaking down the steel cage and
then the prisoner fought with desperate
hurry against the mob that sought to
enter. The struggle did not last long.
and he was taken out bound

porch below. and there preparations
were made to hang MIN. Arope was placed
around his neck and the prisoner was ask
ed what he had to say. He protested in-
nocence, bit it was known that he had
made a full confession IN the afternoon
and he was not believed. After tho second
elevation to the court house oak he made
q statement that be, Frank and Elisha
Carey had the murder concocted and that
they had the deed accomplished before he
arrived at the house. None Of the above
is thought to be true. ~Grandstaff hung
for eleven minatoa before life was extinct.

A Dark Picture.

Benjamin Harrison is elected. We
consider his election national calam-
ity. Not because he is Republican,,
but because he is typical of that class
OF men whose ideas are anti Repuhli-
can. Notwithstanding the log cabin
buncombe. Harrison's grandfather
was an aristocrat and a thorough be-
lever in the doctrine Of slavery, his
grandson has grown upand matured
under the shadow of great corpora
tions Of which he has always been all
attorney and defender.
We hope we are mistaken, but to
us his election is porteitous of evil,
because ii is u victory for corporate
wealth and corporate arrogance and
tyranny will reign supreme. We see
under the coming administration the
rich becoming richer and the poor
poorer and more dependent. We see
the product of the farms blasted by
the curse Of monopoly and the labor
er becoming the subseryient tool Of
the master. w. see strikes, labor
troubles and insipient revolution re-
sulting from the combined influence
of wealthy combinations which obey
no law and recognize no principle
but that of greed and avalice. The
patriot may we'll tremble for the safe-
ty OF his country when such influen-
ces become predominant in the coun-
ellis of the nation. Had such man
rs Judge Gresham been nominated
and elected these dark forebodings OF
the future would not have been writ
