The Savannah Daily Herald Sailing of Lynchburg Negroes for Li beria—Thk Lynchburg Emigration Society. —The members of this organization who left this cily on Tuesday evening, October 31st arrived safely in Baltimore on the following day, and proceeded direct from the depot to the vessel on which they embarked for Li- Itcrin. Everything else being in readiness, the H P. Russell left her wbiirf on Saturday, haying be- n detained three days by the non arrival of the baggage. One hundred and seventy-four emigrants were from Lynchburg and its vicinity, of whom fourteen were but two years old and under, Os the grown males, fifteen are far mers, ten are tobacconists, eight are carpen ters, six are laborers, five are shoemakers, five are blacksmiths, and one each is a butch er and a baker. They are die right kind of material for a young country, aud we believe will give a good account of themselves and , of the land. Nothing occurred to mar the v ifip to Baltimore, and they sailed in the best of spirits. May Divine protection attend them on the ocean and in all their plans and labors. The American Colonization Society pro vided most liberally for the comfort and suc cess of the party. They furnished several with a suitable outfit, ana gave all a passage aud support on tbe voyage—made usually in about five weeks—aud will afford them house room and subsistence for six months alter their arrival. Each single adult is to receive five acres of laud, and families ten acres in fee simple. Others are preparing to follow from this city and other portions of the South, and a large, work is opening up to the Society. May it receive assistance sufficient for tbe necessities of the case. —Lynchbnrg Virginian. “Stood up is the Corner to Make More Room!” —A woman who lived in a small snug cottage in a village, was unfor tunate enough to lose her husband, and set about preparing for the tuneral obsequies. A neighboring Mrs. Grundy, with her cloak and umbrella, called to see thiugs, to oon dole and to speculate. On coming into the bouse she looked around, raised her specta cles and her hands and said. “Why, Lor • me! bow nicely you are fixed up for the tuneral; well Ido declare, Lor Suz ! Dear me! why do tell, you borried Mrs. Webster's cheers aint you, aud Mrs. Stone's vases on the mantel piece, they look right smart, I declare—and there s a clock too—why where on eartli did you get that I want to know.” “Oh no my dear [with a solemn groan] that's uot a clock, it smy poor dear depart ed husband. I stood it up in the corner to make more room.” The Female Emigrants. —Mr. Mercer is still busily engaged in prepaiing for the de portation of his colony of female emigrants from New York to Washington Territory. He has purchased the steamship and is now fitting her up for the accommodation of his passengers. The party is mostly made up, and the ship will sail during the last week of this mouth, or the first of next. Mr. Mer cer meets great encouragement in his work from leading men here aud in Massachusetts. The South Carolina Militia. —ln com pliance with the suggestions of Gov. Perry, a company of one hundred men was formed on the 18th, at Kingstree, Williamsburg District- Two more companies are in course of organization in other quarters of the Dis trict. .
