We have received information,
on good authority, that the Council
of Foreign BOndbOlders, after q foil
hearing have declined to negotiate
with Messrs. Parsons and Hender-
sou concerning the Virginia debt.
1t is believed that Messrs. Parsons
aud Henderson will try to make
some alliance with the English
Banking. Houses, but it is not
probable that they will succeed. SO
much for the latest shceme.

With permission of our respected contem
porary, we would suggest that we let the ne
gro alone. He is doing very we'll, ana lhe
probability is, that he will take care OF MIN
self. He has been doing so in manner salts
factory to himself Our own opinion Is, thai
It is much more important for us to "do some
thinp-anything-to help" ourselves. we are
having out of the State Treasury about omar
ter OF a million dollars to educate their chill
dren, and we think that is something, and
good deal more than we are under any obliga
tion to pay.
We owe our first duty to ourselves. II We
learn to prosper and to make our own race
comfortable, We have done enough.
The negro doesn't want our interference IN
his affairs, and 1t would be q poor negro in
deed that desired more Of us than to be LEI
alone.
Time alone will solve the race problem, anG
1t behooves us to be solving our own individ

Thursday last. few Of our citizens
made purchase of The steam yacht Leo,
from Detroit gentleman. On Friday
evening pleasure party composed Of
some forty pursons boarded her for trip
up the river. All went well, an exceed
ingly delightful trip was had and her
owners seemed highly elated with the
workings Of the little craft An inspec-
tion Of her boiler was found to be neces-
sary, and voyage was accordingly
planned for Sunday. twas thought the
city could be reached that evening and be
ready for inspection the next morning.
The start was accordingly made at about
2:90 o'clock In the afternoon, notwith-
standing the stormy aspect Of the weather,
and with party on board composed Of
the following persons: VIZ. Sam1 Root,
John B. Tunte, s. Il. Knight. G. p. Rit-
ter, Ben Klein, /. d. and e. A. Lawler.
Fred Pelow and the engineer, nams un-
known, they started on what appears to be
their voyage TO death.
Some little time after their departure,
dense clouds came rolling up from the
western horizon, and which inceased In
volume and blacAness as the afternoon
sped on. To all accounts things went
well with the party Of mariners until
nearly abreast Of Rocky River. When of
Avon Pcint sometime after 4 O'Clock the
crew were seen putting down the canvas
which serves as protection from the ele
ments In rough weather. Still further.
down the shore they were noticed by peo.
pie near Rocky River, headed north into
the wind, II hsving veered to that quarter.
ALI soon became enshrouded in darkness
and the unfortunate party were lost 70
sight. 1t is the general supposltion that
the strong wind caught the craft in its
terrific sweep over the waters, tipping II
over and making tia death trap for the
entire party. oncs under water with the
J canvas piniensd, - would BE- . diflcnlt
matter for the unfortunate men 70 make
their escape Other opinions are adyas-
ced and Capt. Bowen seems inclined 70
believe the boiler exploded, thus termi-
mating the lives Of the unfortunates.
The daily papers were read with great
interest each day, all anxious to learn
something Of the missing ones. 1t has
now been decided by seamen that the
boat must have been blown up caused by
too much pressure being brought to bear
upon the boiler owing to the extreme
emergency. The bodies were all recover
ed near the port Of Cleveland, and were
taken to Lorain for interment except the
engineer who was resident 10 Detroit.
