LIBERIA A PLAGUE SPOT.
Frightful EXpt rience of American
Negroes Who Went There.
From the London Mail.

There have just arrived in Liverpool
from Liberia, eight cOlored persons,
citizens of the United States and for
merly Would-be citizens of the Liberian
republic. They told a fearful story of
their distress to a Daily Mail represen-
tative. Seventeen months ago these
poor people, whose names are G. f.
Farmer and wife and Otley Waite and
FIVE children, were tempted to sell
all in America and proceed to the dark
African republic, which was pictured
to them as land flowing with milk and
honey. In company with 3l5 others
they left Savannah in the American
schooner Labrador. On their arrival at
Liberia they soon found that it was no
Canaan. Nevertheless they resolved to
make the best of it, and that proved
very bad indeed.
OF the 3l5 few are now alive. The
Liberian government. indeed granted
the immigrants land, but nothing could
be done with it. The land was a hot
bed of fever and it was dangerous to
live on it before one was "salted."
Waite tried to cultivate a portion of it
eighteen miles from where his family
lived He was afraid to take them to
his holding, as the number of aband-
oned huts round about warned him of
the deadliness of the place.
The immigration agents represented
in their circulars that Liberia was the
home of the negroes and all were in
Vlted to come home. Gold and dia-
monds We're said to be as common as
stones in America. But said Waite,
with a tinge of sarcasm, II have never
seen one since 7 have been there: I
have been looking mighty hard for
one"
Out of the 3l5 who went with him in
the Labrador ninety-three died within
SIX months. He then lost count but
he is now of the opinion that quite half
or those who went in the ship are dead
All who could went back to America
but these We're few.
They had all made up their minds on
board the ship to stay together and
form one settlement in Liberia, but this
the government officials would not al
low. Waite said they We're told openly
that the Liberians were afraid If they
settled in the place they would become
too powerful and take the government
from the Liberian subjects.
In America they We're told the Liber-
IAN soil could grow anything, but they
could only grow cassaVa, potatoes and
coffee and as coffee took six years to
| bear the emigrants could not wait. The
climate, however. was terrible to the
newcomers. The cry was general
among all the emigrants to get back
to their homes in the states According
to Waite's statement there were at
! present at least 500 colored Americans
In Liberia who were longing to leave
that country and We're prevented doing
| so solely on account of having no
| funds.
Both Waite and Farmer say If they
can get back to America they will take
care that no more negroes emigrate
to Liberia. At present they are desti-
tute and unless help is forthcoming
they will not achieve their desire.

Prince Albert. of Monaco, maintains
himself his police, law courts, bishop,
clergy, educational Institutions, wash
house and baths (State), all out of the
proceeds of the Monte Carlo gambling
casino. But, like Oliver Twist, he asks
for more. The Casino is of course a
public company, with shareholders big
and little. In 1868 Prince Charles, of
Monaco, made Cetain concessions to
the company. and for some time his
successor, Prince Albert. was satisfied
with the old terms. But he is no
longer satisfied with them, though for
the season of 1862, the maintenance
of Prince and principality accounts for
$600,OOO in the expenses of the company,

ing manner:

Human Freedom.

For the whole of the enormous adj

man the basis was laid, once for all, by
the gospel. This was, in its original
form and in its continuing purpose, the
charter of human freedom, and the two
modes by which it most conspicuously
asserted itself in the arduous process of
social regeneration were first the grad
ual elevation of woman and next the
mitigation and eventual abolition of
slavery. -Gladstone
