From the Mobile Daily Register.
Quite q comedy was enacted down at Frascati
n few days ago. There wero some forty negroes
there, hired by tho Kansas CITY Company to
work on the railroad beyond the Mississippi
line. The quarantine regulations OF Mississippi
required that their clothing should be fumi-
gated. The only clothing they had WAS on their
backs. and as tho negroes themselves could not
be- smoked without danger OF their becoming
sufoCated. they were put in q box car and their
clothing WAS hung up In another car alongside.
Then the %fumigation of the clothing took place
with full success.
About this time a locomotive backed down
onto the car containing the clothing and made
OF with 1t. leaving the Africans in that state Of
nudity believed TO be affected by members OF the
race While in the country from which thoJ de
rive their name. The negroes set up n mighty
wall OF despair when they saw all their wearing
apparel disappear in the direction Of the setting
sun. and began to entertain the suspicion that
some trick TO get them back into slavery was
being practiced. especially when their own ear
was soon connected to a locomotive and they
also were whirled away, naked and deieDceless.
Their alarm was quoted shortly, however,
when they found their car stopped opposite the
car containing their clothing and they were per-
United TO resume their habiliments.
