 There were thirty souls on board, including the owner, MT. Morgan, all of whom escaped from from the vessel before she sank, taking to the large life boats and rowing ashore near Glen Cove. They had a tough time of it. as the wind was blowing hurricane and the waves dashed ferceIy ovOr them. and they had much difficultyin keeping clear of the rocks which abound in the vicinity of Matinecock Point.

 Farmer Greene took 8 fancy to them and bought dozen of them. When he reached home he had no bottle or jar to put them in and threw them into the hog lot with bucket of spoiled potatoes.
 A few days afterward one of his larg- est hogs became sick, refusing food, and lying down in a corner grunted as if in constant pain. No signs of disease could be discovered, but few days after the hog died. The cause of death was discussed in the usual family council around the supper table, and it was finally concluded best to cut up the hog and find out, if possible, whether or not the disease was contagious.
 This was done, and the cause of death was instantly apparent, The animal had swallowed a Chinese lily bulb whole, and there was sufficient moisture in the stomach to cause it to grow. The bulb had not only swelled and sprouted, but leaves had actually formed. The animal was not adapted to the purposes of Q Anwnr 1an5Aza and aia6 "'

There was exposed two weeks ago a scheme commended by Matthew Quay and entertained by Blocks-of-five Dud- ley for colOnizing negroes in Connecti- cut, Indiana and West Virginia in order to overcome the democratic maiorities in those states. The correspondence has been published and Quay and Dudley do not deny their letters. They merely disclaim any intention of carrying the elections by fraud and say that they un- derstood the proposals made to them to have been entirely philanthropic.
 If philanthropist had a project for enlightening the Hottentots he would be likely to go to Quay, wouldn't he? And Quay would be likely to refer him to Dudley with the recommenda- national committee be used in promoting the enterprise, wouldn't he?
 Colonel Dudley says he did nothing about this colonization scheme because there was no money in the treasury of the national committee.
