WORKMEN LEAVE NAVASSA ISLAND.

GLAD TO ESCAPE FROM A PLACE WHERE THE
HORRORS OF SLAVERY ARE RENEWED.
Navassa Island, June 23-The strike Of the negro
laborers ON the Island of NavasSa eliminated on June
20 in the placing of 1G7 Of them board the bark
Albemarle for transportation to Baltimore.
The United States corvette Kearsarge Immediately
withdrew the marine guard from the island, where II
had been stationed for forty mine days, and sailed in
obedience to original orders for Havana and Key West
whence she will proceed direct TO New-York.
Although this strike has happily ended without
bloodshed or violence Of any kind on the part Of the
"strklngn employees, there is no reason to hope that
future troubles on the Island Of NayasSa will be as
mild In their character harmless in their results
There seems to be disposition on the part of the
TavasSa COMPANY TO ameOrate the present system by
which the employees governed.
OF the 167 employees who were sent to Baltimore on
the bark Albemarle more than 100 had hardly been

long enough to give the island fair trial. He told

as long as he had agreed to- but when he O man
"tTiced up" the report of boss he was willing to
do anything TO get away from the island, away from
the possibility OF having that torture inflicted on him.
In response TO my questions he told me that the man
