Duped colord Eumigrauits. The St. Louis Christian Adcocate quotes from the St. Louis Presby terian a circular, copies of which are said to have been extensively distri buted in Mississippi and Louisiana. This circular, which is indorsed "strictly private," is datea from tl,t, "Office of Colored Colonization S, ziety, Tepeka, Kansas, February 2, 1879," and is headed "Attention, Colored Men 1" It goes on to s.-y that "Your brethren and friends , throughout the North have observed with painful solicitude the outrages heaped upon you by your rebel wns ters, and are doing all they can to alle viate your miseries and provide ft r your future happiness and prosperity. President Hayes, by his iniquitous Southern policy, has deserted you, while the Democrats, who now have control of Congress, will seek to en slave you if you remain in the South, and to protect you from their designs the colonization society has been or ganized by the government to provide laud to each had of a family, whieh will be given in bodies of 160 acres gratuitously. This land is located i: the best portion of Kansas, in close proximity to Topeka, and is very pro. ductive. Here there are no distine tions in society; all are on an equality. Leave the land of oppression and come to free Kansas. Lycurgus P. Jones, President. Show this circu lar to none but colored men, and keep its contents a secret." it is almost impossible to believe that such a cruel piece of deception as this could be practiced upon these poor, harmless, ignorant people-a barbarity worse by far than the most atrocious of the out rages attributed to the "bull-dozers" but the evidence that the colored peo ple have been designedly duped is growing stronger from day to day. The Advocate quotes the Presbyte rian further as averring that "sonic of the poor creatures" have discovered how grossly they have been deceived, and "have written to their white friends in the South asking help to return home. All of them will be similarly enlightened when they reach their journey's end." The St. Louis Globe .Democrat, good Republican authority, also reports that some of the victims of the Kansas fever are very sick of it already, and are long ing to "go home" again. Three of them returned to their former resi dences in Madison Parish, La., a fe*w days ago, the means having been fur nished them by their late employers These denied that they had been ill treated in Louisiana, and said that they habitually voted the Republican ticket without molestation. These men had voluntarily called on a firm of St. Louis cotton brokers and asked to have their passage paid for the homeward voyage. They said they had no particular reason for leaving ,the South except that they'd "hearn tell" of Kansas, and "as all de people was talkin' about comin'," they "jest bundled up their things and come along." They had been sick ever since they came to St. Louis, and were very eager to get back. One of them said he meant to warn "all de folks" against turning their faces up the river and looking for Kansas. When he was home, he said, "I had a nice garden, fourteen hogs, mules and plow and everything, and could lay dowa at my ease and enjoy the water I drank. But I went North, and here 1 am, homesick and nigh distracted. Folks in the North don't want you niggahs, and don't you go." There is, indeed, proof that "folks in the North" do not want the colored emi grants. At a meeting recently held in Wyandotte, Kansas, where there are 1,200 of these expatriated freedmen, destitute and suffering, it was de clared and resolved that the com miunity was not able to take care of the emigrants any longer, and the State authorities were called upon for aid. Of course there are no govern ment lands in any accessible section for these people to take up, and the claim of the "Colored Colonization Socie:y" of Topeka that quarter sec tions of good soil are in its control for gratuticus distribution in close proximity to that city is utterly false, as all the* other statements made in the circular. To' suffer and be pleasant is almost im~possible for an adult, and quite so for a baby. When it is afficted with Colic, Diarrhoa or other troublesome disorders use Dr. Bull's Baby Syrup.

Lours, April 17.-A Kansas City dispatch says a large number of colored Southern refugees have been landed by steamboats at Wyandotte, in an entirely destitute condition, during the past few days, they occu pying the churches and public halls of that place, many sick from ex posure and dying. Mayor Shelley, of Kansas City, telegraphed the Secre tary of War for an order for the issue of -rations from Fort Leavenworth to feed them. and Secretary McCrary replied that he had no authority to do so ; that Congress was in session and applications should be made to that body. A committee has been ap pointed at Wyandotte to look after the sufferers. The committee has issued a call to the citizens of the United States for relief, stating that 1,700 entirely destitute colored refu gees are already in Wyandotte, and thousands more in the same condition .re on the way, and ask for im mediate aid, contributions to be sent to Nor throp & Sons, bankers, treasurer of The Leralc..

It circulates extensively, and as an Advertising medium offers unrivalled ad vantages. For Terms, see first page. Around the World. Jules Verne has shown how one can go "around the world in eighty days." An expedition will leave New York the 8th of May next to go round the world, but not in so short a time ; this is the "Woodruff Scientific Expedition." Mr. James 0. Woodruff has had the plan on foot for several years. One difficulty in the way was the high price of American built steamships. This difficulty was removed by an Act of Con gress, March 23, 1878, empowering the Secretary of the Treasury "to grant, for the purposes of the 'Woodruff Scientific Expedition around the World', register for a foreign built steamship." Mr. Woodruff then went to Europe and purchased from the North German Lloyd Comppany the "General Wer der," a Clyde built steamer, for $350,000. She was built in 1874, and is one of the finest ships on the sea. The chief purpose and plan of the expedition is educational ; the "General Werder" is to be a float ing college. She has accommoda tions for two hundred students and a faculty. Prof. W. S. Clark, L.L. D., late President of the Massachu setts Agricultural College, is Presi dent of the faculty. The passen gers are not required to be students; but the price of the trip is the same to all-2,500. The expedition will be gone sixteen months, visit ing the principal places in Europe and Asia, and some portions of Africa, returning by way of San Francisco. About two-thirds of the time will be spent on land. It will no doubt be a great privi lege to be able to go on this expe dition ; but those who do go will pay dearly for it. It has always appeared strange to us that so many travelers to Europe should put themselves under the care of others, instead of "going on their own hook." Cook & Jenkins, Tou rists, have sold tickets to thousands of travellers during the last ten years, the purchasers paying~ high prices for them and then going the precise route marked out for them, staying just as long at a place as the managers please, being required to stop where and when the tourist think best-everything arranged according to rule. Is it possible that any one can enjoy that sort of traveling ? Our idea of traveling, either for pleasure or profit, is to go when you please, where you please ; spend little or much to snit yiur convenience ; see the world with your own eyes and in your own way. The idea of a party of grown men being chaperoned through Europe like a parcel of school girls visiting a menagerie is supremely ridiculous and foolish, from any point of view. A young man of ordinary sense and indepen dence could take the $2,500 and go to the old world foot loose and free to follow his own inclinations, see and learn more of the world, enjoy himself far better than he possibly could on this "Scientific" Expedi tion, spend two years traveling, and come back with at least $1,000 in his pocket. The "Woodruff Scien tific Expedition airound the World," is well suited to a large class of American citizens who have more money than brains, and no doubt many such will avail themselves of the privilege thus afforded. A resolution was offered in the Pennsylvania House of IRepresen tatives the 15th, providing for the appointment of a committee of ten Senators and fifteen Representa tives, including the Speakers of both Houses, to proceed to San Francisco to receive and welcome ex-President Grant on his return to the jnited States. The resolution was referred to the Committee on Federal Relations. His friends want to give him a good send- off for the Presidency in 1880. The U. S. Court. On the motion to quash the panel of jurors Judges Bond and Bryan rendered their decisions the 14th, the former refusing the motion, the latter deciding that the panel was not properly drawn and that the motion should be granted. The first case called was that of the United States vs. Wm. Kerrigan, of Charleston, charged with assaulting U. S. Supervisor Freeman on last election day while in the discharge of his duty. The following account of the drawing of the jury exhibits the working of the infamous test oath: C. J. Cooper was called as a ju. ror and the test oath was applied. The juror had served in the Con federate army; could not take the oath, and was ordered to stand aside. Zion Collins, (col.) was next call ed. He could take the oath. Chal lenged peremptorily by the de fense. D. W. Edwards called; couldn't take the oath-ordered by the Dis trict Attorney to stand aside. W. A. Evans called ; couldn't take the oath-ordered to stand aside. W. J. Elfe, (col.) Asst. Dist. Atty E. W. M. Mackey announced that he had no objection to the juror challenged by the defense. WIm. C. Goodwin called-couldn't take the oath ; ordered to stand aside. J. W. Gardner called-couldn't take the oath; ordered to stand aside. B. F. Hayes called-took the oath, and was sworn. Philip Heller took the oath, and was sworn. Jno. Knox couldn't take the oath -ordered to stand aside. W. A. Leslie sworn. J. H. Lindeman sworn. Geo. McLean took the oath, but was challenged by the government. B. M. Milam and A. WV. Moore couldn't take the oath, and were ordered to stand aside. WV. A. Nix, (col.), challenged by the defense. This closed the per emptory challenges to which the defense was entitled. The jury was filled out with eight whites and four negroes. The case was then opened and tried. Kerrigan was found "guil ty." The next case tried was that of Chas. Liebenwood, of Charleston, for assaulting a deputy U. S. Mar shal on election day-not guilty. Chas A. Levy was tried for vot ing more than once and found guilty. Wanted to Marry. A Miss S. E. Redmond, of New York, not long since advertised that "she would like to marry a gentleman of comfortable circum stances residing in the South." Not long she waited ere a letter postmarked Hawkinsville, Georgia, reached her. The correspondence became animiated, sometimes very tender on the part of the Hawkins ville man, who was a planter in easy circumstances, and just the kind of husband Miss R. was look ing for. The lady in due course stated that it was time to come to action, and the Georgia lover re plied that he was willing and 'to come," which she did, accompanied by her mother and brother, each expecting to have a rare old time on the Hawkinsville farm. After a speedy trip they arrived at midnight in front of the mansion which proved to be a log cabin, its owner an old grey headed man. Miss R. shuddered at the sight of ,the an cient lover, the mother tore her hair and the brother used 'cuss' words. Of course there was no wedding. The farm, according to an old negro's testimony, "was so po' dat a ground mole would starve to def on it." It served her per fectly right. The suit by Cornelius Vander bilt and his sisters against Wmn. H. Vanderbilt, to set aside the old Commodore's will, has been con chded in favor of the will. The brothers have become friendly, and William proposes to do the proper thing for Cornelius. A few days ago Cornelius paid to the daughters of the late Horace Greeley over $80,000, which he borrowed from their father in his life time. The Columbians are talking of building soon a street railway, to extend from the depot of the S. C. and G. &. C.

A charter was Ahhflfl~~A ~v~rai vear~ ~wr~ The National Bank Question Is looming up again, and it is very probable that some effort will be f made in the 46th Congress, at the i first regular session, to change the banking system. The opposition to the practically exclusive privi leges now enjoyed by National Banks is becoming stronger. It is stated that the reason that three of our five Congressmen voted against Randall for Speaker is because he is a strong advocate of the present system. An effort will be made to abolish the tax of ten per cent. on notes issued by State Banks. Many think this would be a great benefit to the country. But we are not so sure of it. Suppose the ten per cent. tax were abolished, and State Banks were allowed to issue their own notes as money. What would be the consequence? These notes would not be as good as greenbacks, or National Bank notes. They would not pass at par. No corpo ration can be as strong as the Uni ted States government; there can be no guaranty equal to that which is given to National Bank notes; for the faith and credit of the Uni ted States are pledged for their re demption. There is no danger of a failure. We now have a currency of uniform value all over the coun try. Remove the ten per cent. tax and we would, in all likelihood, soon have bank notes issued by different State Banks, and all or a large portion of them circulating at less than their face value-some at 95, others at 90, 80, 75, and per haps some as low as 50 cents on the dollar. This would not. only in terfere with inter-State commerce but woulc be a serious trouble in our local trade. We know very lit tle about banking; but these are our impressions. The question is open for discussion. The News and Courier Prize Stury. Early this year the Charleston News and Courier oliered -a prize of $100 in gold for the best serial story written by a resident of South Carolina, illustrative of Southern life before, during and since the war. Forty-four persons competed for the prize. The writers were all unknown to the Editors and to the Committee who awarded the prize. Judging from the handwriting the lady competitors were far ahead of the men-not one of the sterner sex receiving even an honorable mention. The story that takes the prize is "Ashurst, or the Days that were." The author is a lady ; her name has not yet been given, but will be in a few days. The Comn Imittee of Award consisted of Rev. C. S. Vedder, D.D., Rev. J. A. Chambliss, D.D., and G. Herbert Sass, Esq. The publication of the story will be commenced in the Weekly News Wednesday, April .30th. The News and Courier has shown its characteristic enterprise in offer ing this prize. Its only object was to encourage the development of literature in South Carolina, and "to preserve the 'recollection of traits of character and social pecu liarities and habits that are fast passing away, and to keep before the rising generation the memory of the struggles and sufferings of the last eighteen years." Walterboro' in Rtuins--.-Great Loss of Life and Property. The. town of Walterboro', county seat of Colleton County, was struck by a tornado the 16th instant. About one hundred houses were demolished. Mrs. Dr. Geo. M. Rivers, Philemon Sanders and Benj. Reynolds, white, and five colored persons were killed outright. Miss Emma Rivers, daughter of Dr. R. was severely, and it is supposed, fatally injured. Many other per sons received serious injuries. All the seven churches were destroyed. The stores and public buildings all escaped. The scene was one of in describable horror, lasting only two or three minutes. Many families are left homeless, and there is a great deal of suffering in conse quence. The people appeal to all sections of the State for aid. The Unveiling of the Confede rate Monument. The day for unveiling the Con federate Monument at Columbia has been changed' 'from Saturday, May 10th, to Tuesday, May 13th, the latter being a more convenient I day for visitors.

Nouth Carolina APresbytery Met in the Presbyterian Church at Abbeville C. H., on Wednesday even ing, April 9th, and was opened with a sermon by Rev. R. A. Fair, the re. tiring Moderator. There were present during the meet ing of the body sixteen ministers and about twenty five ruling elders. This a Presbytery now has nineteen minis ters, four licentiates, and thirty-nine [ churches, and is embraced within the v Counties of Pickens, Oconee, Ander- S son, Abbeville, Edgefield and New berry. Until the meeting of Synod tj last October, Greenville, Spartanburg * and Laurens Counties were also in cluded within its limits, but now these P d three Counties, together with Union o County, form the new Presbytery of "Euoree." a Rev. D. E. Frierson, D.D., was elected Moderator, and Maj. S. P. Deody, of Walhalla, assistant Clerk. The narratives from the churches did not show a very healthful state of religion, yet in some of the churches in Anderson County several additions i to the membership were reported. r These-additions in a large degree were the result of the earnest and faithful e labors of Presbytery's late Evangelist, the Rev. John G. Law. C The Executive Committee of Do mestic Missions were directed to pros ecute evangelistic work in Edgefield i County, through licentiate A. E. Nor-. ris, whose past labors in that County were highly commended, and in An- I derson County through licentiate Brownlee, who also was reported as faithful in his work, and acceptable to the people amongst whom he has la bored, and through Rev. Hugh Mc Lees in a part of Anderson and in Pickens, also the Committee were di rected to use all the ministers and li eentiates of Presbytery, who have not regular charges, in evangelistic work.1 The most encouraging report made to Presbytery was the fact that every r one of the thirty-nine Churches be- e longing to Presbytery had contributed j something to the great cause of For- i eign Missions. But only seven Sabbath School re-t ports from the churches were sent up to Presbytery, and this was discour- g aging. The Sabbath School is an im- r portant auxiliary of the church, and ( if it is not sustained something serious is wrong and the church is the suffer- e er. Rev. J. B. Adger, D.D., and Elder i J. J. Norton were elected principals, j and Rev. D. E. Frierson, D.D., and t Elder J. M. Baxter alternates to the ( General Assembly, which is to meet in May, in the city of Louisville. Ky- a Two young men, Messrs. Simpson ( and McLees, after the usual examina- ib tions before Presbytery, were licensed i to preach the Gospel. The pastoral relation between Rev. t Dr. Adger and Roberts Church (An- a derson County) was dissolved ; and 14 Dr. Adger is to become the pastor of c the church at Pendleton and Mt. Zion 14 Church about eight miles from Pen. lleton. Rev. John G. Law was dismissed to Charleston Preshytery; also a call fi from the Presbyterian Church at Dar- . ington C. H., (Harmony Presbytery) ~ had been put in Mr. Law's hands be fore his dismissal. Providence Chnrcb, in Abbeville County, was selected as the place for he next meeting of Presbytery, and Wednesday night before the fourth tl sabbath in October as the time. G The meeting of Presbytery was si leasant, mostly harmonious and quite "I aborious. Its sittings each day wereA romn 9 A. M. to 3 P. M., and from 8 t o 10 and 101 P. M.

Mr. Randall made an excellent se etion of Committeemen, and a much etter one than two years ago.

LaddI is an experienced business aan, and will do credit to the places e has received. Monday was a day of excitement in he House, that body being in session or the first time on "bill and petition"~ lay. Many Nationals were at hand with financial and other bills, but the lepublicans, by resorting to rather ~uestionable tacties, prevented the re eption cf bills. Mr. Stephens, how ver, suggested that whatever bills night be ready for presentation could >e filed as petitions and would go di etly to the appropriate Committees d the Committees could report them. n this way bills for the free and un estricted coinage of silver, for the ssue of Treasury Certificates based on he deposit of bullion, and other meas res, were presented, Mr. Ladd, who rst got the floor, holding it to accomi oodate all who wished to "petition" Jongresss.
