Bound for Liberia.

NEW York, February pa party of
colored men, numbering about 100, ar
rived here to, day with their families
from the Indian Territory, on their way
to Liberia, Africa. They we're curious
looking lot of people, dressed in oil sorts
of fashion. The police took them to
Stephen Merritt's Mission to give them
shelter from the drizzing rain and some
thing to eat.
One of the number, q venerable darkey
named George Washington, told the
story of their wanderings. He said
they came from Redland Territory, in
the Cherokee Nation, sixteen miles from
Fort Smith, Arkansas. Most of them
owned property and raised cotton, but
last summer the crop was failure and
they became dissatisfied. The trip to
Liberia had been discussed last June.
Rev. Mr.. Hill, their pantor, favored the
project and consented to go with them
as their leader. Mr.. Hill told them
that it would cost $1,000 to get
to this city and that the steamship
company would give them free
passage to Africa. His proposition was
accepted.
Many of them sold their homes for al
most nothing to raise the amount. The
money was given to Rev. Mr.. Hill. The
pastor started out to find accommodations
for his people when they arrived and got
lost for a time. BE left his family in the
ferry house, but could not tell where it
was. He vent to the police headquarters
and asked if the police would not try and
find them.
Rev. MI. Hill tells sad story of his
peoples experiences. He said that some
time ago he received circular from q
man named Coppiuger of Washington,
manager of the American Colonization
Society. The circular stated that negroes
could go to Africa free of charge after
taking the oath Of allegiance to the Afri.
can ,gs, srnment administered here at the
custom house. This they found VAS un.
true. The pastor and his people are left
here without means, and all of them be-
reft of home and farms.

FRIENDSHIP, S. G., Feb. 16, 1892.

Mr.. Editor In regard to the 1.-TWO
Crabs" my version is this: We have no
right to accuse others of doing evil if ne
indulge in the same habits. First cast
the beam out of our own eyes, and then
ne can see more clearly to pull the mote
out of our neighbours eye. If We would
have others to do right we must first do
right ourselves, and some one will be
sure to follow. Parents need not think
or expect their children to be something
great if they wallow in the mud them.
selves. As rule children will be just
about what their parents are in morals.
They will generally come up to the ex.
ample their parents set them. Parents
need not give their children advice,
unless they live up to the advice they
give themselves. Precept upon precept
will be worthless, unless good example
accompanies them. Not only are parents.
responsible, but we, as scholars, are re.
sponsible for the example ne set before
the smaller scholars. There is never a.
time but what somebody is following our
example. Actions speak louder than
words. One example is worth dozen
precepts.
I go to school at Friendship to Mr.. J.
B. Spearman.

"What do you want? ?" he thundered,

"Want to get married |" shouted the

ROBERTS, s. o., Feb. 20, 1892.
Mr.. Editor AS my other letter es-
capped your "waste basket" I will try to
answer your questions of last week.
There were eight wars: King Williams
war, 16S9-97. Cause: Wsr having bro
Ken out between England and France,
their colonies in America soon took up
the quarrel. Second. Queen Anne's war,
17Q2-1S. Cause England declared war
against France and Spain, their colonies
ia America were soon aroused to war.
Third. King Georges war, 1S44-48.
Cause: War having broke out anew be.
tween England and France, their colo.
MES 10 the New World at once took up
the quarrel. Fourth. French war,
1754-6S. Cause Both the French and
English claimed this tract of land lying
west of the Allegheny Mountains along
the Ohio river. The French seized the
English surveyor and captured their
posts; also built forts along their line of
possession. Fifth. Revolutionary war,
1775-S3. Cause: The British tried to
tax the colonies to pay the expenses of
the recent war. Six. War of 1S12-14..
Cause The impressment nf American
seamen and the capture of their ships.
Seven. M@;ican war, 1851. Cause:
The annexation of Texas to the United
States. Eight. Civil war, l861-65.
Cause: The antagonism between the
North and South was mainly on account
of the slavery question. This difficulty
was frat settled by the Missouri Com
promiae in 1920. The "squatter sover.
eigncy" policy, reused to fury by the
trouble in Kansas, while the Dred Scott
decision and the attempted execution of
the Fugitive Slave Law, together with
the John Brown raid, made it now plain
that war would be the result. The
Southern States, headed by South Caro-
lins, seeded from the Union, so war was
declared between the North and South.

GRACE GILMER.

ANDERSON. s. O., Feb. 90, 1892.

ANDERSON, s. O., Feb. %, 1892.
Mr Editor: In regard to your ques.
tions of last week, my answer is this,
there we're four wars: Revolutionary In
1775, the war with England in 1872, the
Mexican in 1S5 and the Civil in 1861.
The cause Of the Revolutionary was that
England wanted to rule US, and We did
not wans to be ruled by her, 30 we re.
belled. The war with Eugland was
because England claimed the rights OF
stopping American vessels, the British
aroused the Indians against the Ameri-
cans, so war vas declared against Great
Britain June 10, 1872. The Mexican
war was about the boundary line between
Texas aud Mexico. The Civil war was
whether VIC should have slaves or not.

Just like school with large pupils and
small ones. The larger ones generally
want the younger ones to behave we'll,
and don't behave themselves, and they
are the ones to set the examples for the
little ones. If the larger pupils would
always behave we'll, the teacher wonld
