"The scene* I auve witnessed dur

left Blagovetchensk, be says, "are
horrible beyond the powers of de

of a fearful human tragedy Two
thousand were deliberately drowned
at Mono, two thousand at Rabe and
eight thousand around Blago?

corpsee encumbering the river,
among which were thousands of
women and children Navigation
waa all but impossible. Last week a
boat bad to plough her way through
a tangled and mangled mass of corp
see lashed together by their loog

the, stream were dark, putrid smell?
ing masses of human flesh and bone,
surging and swaying in the steamers
wske and wash. The csptsin vainly
ordered full speed ahead. The sight
and smell will be ever with us.
"From Blagovetchensk to Aigun,
45 kilometers, numerous villages
studded the bank, with a thriving,
industrious population of over 100,
000 That of Aigun was 20,000.
No one will ever know the number
of these who perished by shot, sword

The silence of death was around us,

Smalls Issues Circular.
Special to the Stute
Beaufort, Nov 13 ?The negro ex
congressmsn Robi Smalls ia the
author of o circular letter which he
ia sending to prominent negroes
throughout the country advocating
conoerted action oo theic part io
opposition to what he calia an
attempt to disfranchise his race in
the Palmetto State The negro ex
leader wants the congressional rep?
resentation from South Carolina
reduoed in accordance with the 14th
amendment of the constitution which
reada "that when the male iobabi
taota of any state, being 21 years of
age and citizens of the United States,
are denied the right of suffrage
except for participation in rebellion
oi other crime, the basis of repre?
sentation therein shall be reduced in
the proportion which the number of
such msle citizens shall bear to the
whole number of male citizena 21
years of age in auch state " If
Smalls would tsko into consideration
the number of his race who have
forfeited all claim to citizenship by
the commission of crimes and felonies
it would be impossible to enumerate
doubtless he would understand the
wisdom of South Carolina's registra?
tion laws The negroes here heartily
detest Smalls, but are afraid of him.
Many of them are jealous because he
is such a pet of the preaent sdminis
tration and be certainly does seem
to be able to get about any appoint

administration.

Negro Ravi8her Horribly
Punished by White Men
in Colorado,
Father of the Brute's Victim Ap?
plies Match.
Li moo, Colo, Nov 1G?Chained to
a railroad rail set firmly in the grouod
oo the ezsot spot where his orime was
committed, Preston Porter, Jr, or as
he was familarly known, John Porter
this evening paid a terrible penalty for
his deed, tt wss 6 23 o'clock when the
father of the murdered girl touobed the
match to the fuel wbioh had been piled
around the negro aod in 20 miootes
later a last convulsive shudder told
bat his life was eztioot. What agony
?? e doomed boy suffered while the flames
shriveled op his flesh ooold only be
guessed from the terrible contortions
of his face and the cries he gave from
time to time. The ezeoutioosrs, who
numbered about 300 citizens of Lincoln
oouoty, had oot the least semblaooe of
the ordinary mob. Their every act
was deliberate aod during all the pre?
parations as well as throughout the suf?
ferings of the negro hardly an uooeoes
sary word was spoken Grimly tbey
stood in a circle about the fire until the
body was entirely consumed aod theo
quietly took their way back to Li moo,
whence they parted for their homes
shortly afterwards.
Preston Porter did not seem to real?
ize tho awful punishment that he was
destined to undergo As he had ez
hibited indifference to the enormity of
its orime, so he seemed to laok all un?
derstanding of its terriblo conse
juenoes For more thao an hour,
I while preparations for his ezeoutioo
were in progress, be stood mute and
sulleo among the avengers. When
iverythiog was ready he walked to the
(take with a 6rm step, paused as he
cached the cirole of broken boards
to kneel in prayer. He wss
allowed to take his time. He arose sod
plsoed his baok to the iron stake sod
half a dos3n men wouod chains about
his body aod limbs. Kerosene oil was
applied to the wood aod after a brief
pause, Riohard W. Frost, The father of
the little Frest girl, whose cruelly mu?
tilated body was foood ooe week ago
oo that very spot, applied the match.
For a moment but a little fliokeriog
flame arose. Then the oil blaz.'d up,
sparks flew into the air aod the wood
begao to orsokle. Almost instantly
the negro's trousers caught fire.
Even though the flesh must have
boon scorched, he did oot utters sound.
The flames crept slowly upward oo his
olotbiog, the sparks flying op io a
oloud of pals smoks. Porter turoed bis'
head aod a frightful ezpressioo chaoged
his face. With a sudden convulsive
tugging he stretched his head as far
from the rapidly increasing flames ss
possible aod uttered a cry of pain,
"Oh, my Qod, let me go, men. I've
got something more to tell you. Please
let me go. Ob, my Qod, my God."
Io terrible screeches these words, the
first he bad uttered aloud, osme from
the negro. A terrible tugging at the
obaios, a succession of awful groans
and screams, the agony was at last
breaking down his sullen composure.
Not so oath esoaped, but bs begged
aod pleaded to be shot. Suddenly the
rope holding his hands burned through.
Then srms, head and shoulders slipped
through the obsios For an instant the
body stood erect, the arms were raised
io supplication-while huroiog pieces of
clothing dropped from tbem. The body
theo fell away from the fire, the bead
lower than the feet, still fssteoed to the
rail. This was oot ezpeoted, aod for a
few miaous those stolid men were dis
oonoerted ; tbey feared that the on)y
remaining chaio would give way If
this had ooourred the partly burned
human being would have beeo dsshed
among them in his blssiog garment*.
And not many would bave oared to
oapture him again. But the chain held
fast. The body was theo io such a
position that ooly the legs were io the
fire. The cries of the wrstoh were
redoubled sod be sgsio begged to bs
shot. Some wsoted to throw him ioto
the fire, others tried to dssb oil upon
him. Boards were oarried aod a largo
pile mads over the prostrate body.
They soon were igoited aod the terrible
heat aod laok of air qoickly reodered
the vietim uncoosoius, bringing death a
few moments later. This terrible oere
uoony, out upon the rolling prairie,
eoooluded the seeood tragedy upon
that spot, the terrible aveogiog of the
first
Through the entire affsir but little
was said As tbey calmly prepared for
the avenging, so the people of the
eastern part of the State carried oat
their nlsn eoollr aod deliberately.
There wss not a hitoh in the entire
proeeediogs Not a wespon was
drawn ; there was no angry disoossioo.
After tho fire had burned low they told
each other good oight and they weot
home They did not slop to discuss
the affair.
