Gen. Watts1 Trip North. i I What he has to say About the Adjutant General John Gary Wattn yesterday returned from Washington and other points North. The objects of his trip have already been given the public When seen yesterday and asked about bis trip and its results, i General Watt? said : "When I got to Washington I found HH,bat both the United States Senators ??and our Congressmen had returned BJ ho me ; so that, io the absence of an op BBportuoity for an introduction to the Sec Bjrets^y of War and the Searetary of the MiN&vy by one of them, which cu? * to m a ry, I called upon our friend Cap? tain Capers, who, as one of the United States attorneys, has business from time to time with the government offi? cials. Captain Capero and myself went over to the war, stace and navy departments, and met some of the 'pow? ers that be ' He then left me to ful v SI i my mission. I bad a long and very satisfactory talk with Secretary Herbert of the navy department, and with Lieutenant Schultze, and afterward met the As? sistaut Secretary of War, John B Doe. These officials treated me with great Courtesy, aud were very much inter? ested in our military organization and in our navy reserve. "I called the navy department's attention to the fact that South Caro % lina bad not received an appropriation for the naval reserve since 1892. I found the department under the impres? sion that we had no intention of keep? ing up osr oaval reserve, bot when I reviewed the disastrous effects all along the coast as a result of the recent terri ble storms, I found no trouble in con vindo g them that our efforts since that time, and the purpose of this visit, io- \ dicated in no uncertain way thai: we intended io go ahead and keep up our naval reserve force. In the office of the Auditor of the Navy I succeeded in securing the promise of an appro? priation for 1893, the prospect for which bas very gloomy up to this time. Of course I did not lose the opportu? nity to speak of the Charleston and Port Boyal harbors and of our mag? nificent coast exposure, so well adapted to the purposes and practices of a oa? val reserve force. [ called their atten? tion to the fact that appropriations are made according to the State's repre? sentation in Congress and not by che relative numerical 'Strength of the State's militia. "Secretary Herbert, as you no doubt know, is a South Carolioian, aod from my old home, L?ureos ; in fact, he was a school mate of my father's, a matter which he himself brought to my attention, and we talked of mutual friends in the Piedmont section for quite awnile. "I finally succeeded io getting one three-inch gun aod two small boats and the promise of the Yan tic, ora monitor, to be loaned us for practice and u.?e oo our coast. As to just what vessel I will select I have not yet decided "In the war department I was equally successful in making arrange? ments which will greatly benefit our militia. .'Yes, you are right ; the head offi? cials did seem to think I was quite a young man for the position cf Ad? jutant General and Inspeoter General of the State of South Carolina. The Assistant Secretary of War pleasantly referred to it, but I had an equaMy pleasant retort on him, who is himself quite a young man, and, prior to bold iog the position he now occupies, was Adjutant General of New Jersey at my age. "From Washington I visited Balti? more. Philadelphia aod New York, where I had personal ioterviews with the leading manufacturers of arms and military equipments, and, as a result of my visit to those places, I will be able to secure them at a much lower price than we have yet been able to get them for."-The State. Slaughter of Innocents. LONDON, March 20-A special re? porter of the Daily Neics reports OD his inquiry on the Armenian outrages. He says: There is abundance of unanimous evidence of the bloodiest, most fieod ishly premeditated and damnably per? petrated massacre of ioooceots. This I iotend to prove out of the mouths of the perpetrators themselves. The correspondent sends from the Russian frontier under the date of Feb? ruary 28th, the Jstory he himself elici? ted from a Turkish non-commissioned officer. This officer, acting under or? ders, fhared in the slaughters. He de? scribed the revoltiog horrors at great length. "He has now left the army," says the correspondent, "and has fled to Russia, where be is persecuted by the infinite horror of his owo thoughts and is dying surely and rapidly. I question? ed him three hours in the presence of responsible witnesses. I was deeply impressed with his resigned melan? choly and invincible despair. He said that throughout the fighting he never heard of a single soldier being wounded much less killed. Many Turks were killed, however, and particularly io the earlier days of the affairs." Chili proposes to try the experiment of state management of railways. The government has announced its intention of buying up all the existing roads. To the Dark Continent. Tne Horsa Steams Away from Savannah. SAVANNAH. March 18-The steam? ship Horsa. with 200 Liberinn emigrants, sailed from Savannah this afternoon. Five thousand negroes gathered on the wharves? and cheered the vessel as it passed down the river. Knots of ne? groes began gathering in 'he vicinity of the dock, where the steamer was ly? ing, early this morning. The number kept increasing, and at noon several thousand were packed in the streets and lanes and covered the roofs of the baildings fer several blocks. The effort by Rev. C. S. Smith, sec? retary of the Sunday School Union- of the African Methodist Church, who has been endeavoring to prevent the clear? ance of the vessel, on the ground that she was not properly equipped, failed to accomplish anything. The accom? modations of the Horsa complied fully with the law and the vessel passed a thorough ^inspection by the custom offi? cials. Shortly after noon the gates to the wharf where the emigrants were wait? ing were opened and the negroes went aboard, lt was a curious procession, ranging in age from the baby in arms to the old man tottering on the verge of the grave. The women came first , and made strange contrasts. One with a checked apron and a sun bonnet was followed by a jauotilv dressed girl of more tender years, with gaudy plumed hat and bright ribbons. Some carried valises, others buckets, others tins full of small articles. After the women came the men, some with shot guns and rifles, and others with assorted luggage. All were sent into the stern of the vessel and grouped together in order that a picture of the vessel might be taken. The count was 202, of which 38 were children and seven infants Tbe clearance papers put the number at 197. Over 400 trunks.and boxes were taken as baggage Io the boxes are agricultural implement?, fire arms, ammunition, household utensils and. supplies, clothing, etc The party will probably be the best equipped that has ever left America for the dark conti? nent Since their arrival in Savannah they have spent probably $1,500 to ?2, 000 laying in stores. The majority of the negroes appear to be still quite well supplied with money. There is prob I ably not a man io the party but who j has sufficient to provide subsistence for some time after landing in Liberia. Supplied as they are, there is no dan? ger of this party starviog to death or otherwise suffering if there ?9 any pos? sibility of making a living at all in the land to which they are going. When the vessel's lioes were cast off there was a cheer from the crowd on the wharves and the emigrants sang their parting 6ong: "I'm Going Home to Africa's Snores." The refrain was taken up by those on the shore. The singing was kept up until the vessel j passed the city, the crowds following j along the wharves shouting good-byes, j From the negroes gathered on the j crowded deck of the steamship came i back answering shouts from men and j womeo, while the color bearer of the party, a sturdy negro of small dimen? sions, violently waved a large Ameri? can flag that will be displayed as the Horsa enters the harbor of Monrovia. The Horsa expects to reach Monrovia about April 1, and after landing the emigrants will endeavor to secure a re? turn cargo. The party is accompa? nied by E. B Cottingbam, secretary of i the International Migration Society, R j C. Truesdale and J. C. Lancbester and < W. M. Simpson, agent of the charter . ers. The missionary cause is represent i ed by four colored ministers, who go ; provided with fuuds to build a church i in Monrovia.
