H n,and when telegraphic orders w ero sent to

f thacce to the Cougo, on the west ooast, aud
f thence to the Brazil station, thus severing
> him from the command of his squadron in
Europe, and placing him in the attitude of
. a commander of a single ship, aud all this
without a word of explanation. Subsequent
information told that aa anonymous letter
[j had been received at the bureau of naviga

H leged as sufficient reason for the removal of
the admiral from the oonunand. It was re
ported and believed at the time that this
I anonymous letter had its origin iu the
bureau itseii. It is sufficient to say that the
S contents and statements of that let l er were
1 found to be maliciously false.

I " When Acting Rear Admiral Walker,

bureau of navigation there was a commo
dore, his superior iu rauk, who was presi
dent of a board of much importance in the
department. This officer was one of Farra

under rarragut and I .ee, and was associated
some of the finest exploits of the war,
and his name to-day is historic in our naval
history. He had been employ’ed at the close

Prayer of Many Shcuters at the Con
vocation off aith Healers.
From the New York World.
The ninth annual seven-day convocation
of the Mount Zion Sanctuary and Church of
the First Born began yesterday. The pro
grammes say ihelooiLlon of the sanctuary is
at the foot of Chapel avenue, through the
Bay cemetery in Jersey City, n'e Green
ville. The French is as per circular.
Tiie cburch is close by two tall ffagstaffs
bearing red banner; inscribed: ‘‘Mount
Zion Sanctuary,” and "Have faith in God.”
Entire sanctification and Cnristiaa healing
are the tenets of tho members of Mount
Zion Sanctuary.
A man like enough to Jay Gould to be
his brother led the singing. His name is
William Bennett. After two hymns a
middle-aged woman came in through one of
the seaward doors, kneeled down and led
in prayer. That is Mrs. Jackson. She is
tho head one, so they say. After prayer
she started in to sing a sacrod duet with
Mr. B urnett, it was a little too high aud
his voice broke several times, but Sister
Jackson went right on undismayed by the
fact that she was singing in quite another
key from the one in which tho organ was
playing,
Brother M. D. Hancox, the pastor, called
on those who wanted to be prayed for to
rise. Instantly a plain, healthy looking
woman and a man by her side stood up.
“I want your prayers that I may be
healed,” she said.
“So do I,” he mumbled. He was red
faced and whito-baired and had no collar.
“I'raffie his name!” ejaculated Brother
Hancox. “Tho dear brother came here last
night and he pretty near had the tremens.
Ho is suffering from alcoholism. Some of
his fneuds thought he’d better go to an in
stitution and have tho care of trained
nurses. But I tell bim there’s no better
nurse than Jesus. Some of us know that
by experience. This dear soul reminds me
of the young follow Jesus met in the tombs
one morning. The poor fellow was afflicted
with demons and was cutting himself with
a stone. The very same Jesus cast out of
him over 3,000 demons.”
“Suppose we sing ‘For this is tne very
same Jesus,’” suggested Sister Jackson.
“Why, yes. That’s a good idea,” replied
Brother Hancox, and they did sing it with
fervor.
One sister got shouting happy while this
hymn was being sung.
Then Brother Hancjx prayed in an arked
Jersey accent. He begged t hat the “tiah in
ou’ hats might be kept boyning brighta and
bright".”
After that he read from the Bible and
preached. His first words were prophetic.
Said he: “I hardly know what to say.” It is
a groat cross to listen to Brother Hancox.
Then Sister Jackson spoke. She told how
her husband had once wanted to buy her an
easy pair of shoes. “‘No,’I says to him;
“you gave me to the Lord, and he’ll get
them for mo. You must have faith ia him.’
And, sure enough, that afternoon a dear
sister came in aud said she had bought a
pair and they wore to > small for her and
wanted I should take them. They just lit
me to aT. Praise his holy name! O, if all
wives were like that, what a happy world
this would be. Tbe Lord has kept me from
sin for tea years. I was sick for a long
time, and the and rotors couldn’t do anything
for me. but the Lord cured me. I was
down to 108 pounds, and now I weigh 210.
How’s that for ton years’faith iu God? I
feel to bless the Lord.”
The sister who had Bhouted gave in her
testimony with a strong Kerry accent. “I
used to be iu such pain, said she, “that the
neighbors could hear me hollow. I had a
poor drunken beast of a husband, and
many's the time I had to lie out o’ nights
because the beer wasiu him and he'd driven
me out. I tried everything, and finally I
came here to Mount Zion. Sister Jackson
anointed me iu the name of the Father,
tho Son and the Holy Ghost six years ago
and never ari ache nor a pain have I had
since. Praise the Lord! And I’ll say for
the benefit of that gentleman over there
that my man was cured of the taste for
drink by the Lord Jesus. Now he's a de
cont a man as ever waltcod iu shoe leather.
Praise the Lord! Why wouldn’t I? I’U
praise him while I have a drop of breath in
my body. I will that.”
Brother George Brown of Belfast, Me.,
said: “I have come here to sit at your feet
and learn. lam saved by grace. Twenty
years ago the doctors all said I was going to
die of consumption. My poor old father
stood around me weeping, but the Lord
raised me up. I had dyspepsy awful bad,
blit three years ago last March the Lord
cured me up and I can eat all kinds of yreon
trash now and it never feezes me. But I
want your prayers for my throat, l have a
kind of tickling sensation in it sometimes
add I want the Lord to heal it.”
A Mrs. Boerum told how she had been
cured of heart disease and falling eyesight,
a id how a little niece of hors had got well
of typhoid pneumonia the day after the
people of Slount Zion had prayed for her.
Others bore testimony to cures of malaria,
headache aud colds.
It was expected that Sister Jackson
would anoint yesterday afternoon, but she
didn’t. Duringjthe course of the seven
days’ convocation there will be anointings
of the sick scriptural baptism in the w aters
of New York bay.
BETNHARDT’3 SI6TJRI
The Claimant to This Honor May Boon
Meet the Divine Sarah.
Ironi the Philadelphia Press.
San Fuancisco, Sept. 14. —When Sarah
Bernhardt stops at FresDO Wednesday
to give one night’s performance she is likely
to meet tho woman who claims to lie her
sister. This woman is Mrs. Estella Bell of
White river, Fresuo county, who recently
deoiared, when she annjnnced herrelation
ship to the great act'ess. that she prjpcses
seeing Saran face to face if she had to walk
from her ranch to Fresno City.
Mrs. Bell declares she is Sarah's sister and
shows a bundle of letters which sho says
establishes the relationship. Recently in
conversation she sai l Bernhardt's name was
not Bernhardt at all, but Sarah King of
Uochestor, N. Y.
Bernhardt last night declared she would
receive the woman kmdly at Fresno and
would try to undeceive her. She was shown
a photograph of Mrs. Bell, and of her rude
cabin of two rooms on her ranch. Mrs.
Bell is a hard-featured woman of middle
age, with her face tanned to the color of an
lud an by exposure to fre sun, ad dresses
in a coarse blouse dross. When Sa ah saw
the phocograpo she laughed heartily, and
asked whether the woman was an Indian,
she l-ooked so black.
Bernhardt said this was her first sister
experience. Usually, people who claimed
relationship were uncles, and she had been
greatly pestoroi on the continent by these
cranks, who followed her from one place
to ano.her. “What folly this is,” she broke
out, impatiently. “Wbeo my life is as well
known to Parisians as Column Vendome.”
Mine. Bernhardt left Saturday night for
Los Angeles, aud will return by way of this
city and go east about the end of the week.
Her engagement here was a success in every
wav, more money boing taken than on her
previous visit.

AGAINST EMIGRATION.
Floyd Snelson Tells tho Colored Feo
plo to Stay at Home.
Wayckoss, Ga., Sept. 17.—One of the
most intelligent, influential and respected
c Jored citizens in tho state is Floyd Suei
son of this city. He has figured promi
nently in politics, has bcea a preacher of the
gospel, and is now superintendent of the
colored free schools of Waycross. Iu 1377
he was sent to Africa as general ageDt for
the Ameri: au Missionary Association. Upon
this latter subject he was asked a day or
two ago as to ms opinion of that country.
Ho said: “On Sept. 24, 1877,we sailed from
New York, and reached Freetown, Sierra
Leone, on Oct. 19. We remained about
one vt or, ar.d visited Mendi, Sousi, Galll
nas and Liberia.
*• W hile there we were engaged in saw-mill
work and farming. We employed a largo
number of natives at very low wages to do
tho hard work. Coroneo, bye and bissi aro
the principal woods used. The income from
tins industry is very Btnalj, there being no
means of export ng the lumber. Cotton is
grown successfully, the stalk continuing to
grow higher and higher every year until it
gets out of reach, when it is cut down and
planted over again. Orange and coffee
larrns pan also be managei successfully.
Potatoes aud pinders grow well. Corn can
not be successfully cultivated. The country
is rich in mineral resources, but there are
no means of developing it.”
“Would you advisa the colored people to
go to Africa!”
“I would not, as labor is in abundance
and can- be had for almost nothing.”
“ What are the wages of a common la
borer?”
“The averago price per month isss. Out
of this laborers have to bear all their ex
penses. The natives live on this amount
because they use the native products, which
cost very little, while the American labor
er has to use American productions which
cost a great deal more.”
“What is tte cost of groceries and pro
visions—that is, those imported from this
country ?”
“White bacor. sells at 1 shilling, or 24
cants per pound, tho year round; bam from
39 to 50 caulß; butter from 60 to 75 cunts,
and lard for 25 cents per pouud, and flour
at Sly per barrel and other American pro
ductions at corresponding prices.”
“ What is ttite nature of the work a com
mou laborer has to perform i”
“The nature of tho work is such that they
could not stand it. The principal work is
propelling bjate and carting the palm pro
duction. This w ork is continued night aud
day by the natives.”
“How about st irms and sickness?”
“Through the greater part of the year
storms prevail w ithout any cessation. Dur
ing the acclimatizing season most of the
new-comers have to pass through very
severe sufferings from the African fever,
from which very few, comparatively speak
ing, over escape death, unless they aro able
to secure special medical attention.”
“Wnat do the physicians charge for
‘special attention?’ ”
“Five dollars per visit cash down, without
any exception.”
“What did it cost you to go to Africa?”
“The passage alone from New York by
sailing boat direct is $100; by steamer from
$l5O to S3OO. There are many other incon
veniences there with which our peoplo are
no way acquainted that ure calculated to
render then- lives anything but plea-ant.”
“What do you think of this rush now
being made by colored people to Oklahoma?’’
“I would not advise my people to go to
Oklahoma or any other place unless they
have the means to establish themselvos in
some occupation after they get there, and
in case they don’t like it to return with.
Between the years 1872 and 1876, there were
great inducements offered to the colored
Esople to go to Alabama, Mississippi, Ar
ansas, Louisiana and Texas by emigration
agents, and there was a great exodus
to those states at a fearful sacrifice of their
homos and other properties. Every bo ly is
familiar with the result. Many were taken
out tnere and starved, while others were
taken to malarial regions t > work out their
pas-age money, where it was not possible
for them to live. A few escaped and re
turned to tell the story. Among them were
a few near relatives of my own.
“No, sir; you can say that I am notin
favor of the colored people emigrating un
less they know what is before them.”

Weapons in Self-Defense.
From the Washington Port.
Roaxoke, Sept. 15. —The sequel to
the Grlnberg & Morris assignment was a
sensational tight on the street to-day. L.
Q. C. Lamar, Jr., son of Associate Justice
Lamar of the United States supreme court,
came here Monday in the interest of the
Hamilton Brown Shoe Company of St.
Louis, who aro creditors to the amount of
$1,547. There was a large concourse of
creditors in the hustings court this morn
iDg to hear the outcome of a motion re
quiring she trustee to give satisfactory
bail. Judge Duke of Charlottesville re
quired the trustee to give bond in the sum
of sso,ooo. *
Adolph Morris, a member of the firm,
was in court, and as he started down the
steps he was requested by Mr. Lamar to
grant him an interview of a few miuutes.
Morris refused and attacked Mr. Lamar'
shaking him violently. Both men then
walked down tbe street a few steps. Mor
ris again became belligerent, and used in
sulting remarks. At this Mr. Lamar
struck Morris twice in the face, tbe last
blow felling bim to tbe pavement. Lamar
then stamped the prostrate mania tho
fan .
A gieat crowd gathered and separated
the combatants, but a general fight seemed
imminent, and several prominent gentle
men became engaged. Moms swore out a
warrant against Lamar, an 1 he was tried
before a magistrate and dismissed.
Morris was badly beaten up, while Lamar
did not receive a scratch, and was at once
the hero of the hour.

FOUGHT FCR HIS RIGHT.
A Young Man Disinherited "ears His
Father’s Vv H’.
From the Pittsburg Pispnlch
Chprchtown, Pa., Sept 11. —Justice of
the Peace William McGowan was in Bade
buryville on Wednesday to read a will to
the heirs of George Hagee of Atglen.
Hugee owned a nickel mine, thirty acres of
ground aud other valuable property. Mr.
McGowan, who wrote the will, got to the
house at 7 o’clock in the evening, a few
hours after the funeral procession had re
turned from the cemetery. All the mourn
ers were congregated in the largo room of
the house where the fati.or died.
Tho justice got a chair to rend tho will.
Near him were a Bible ou a stunu and a
lighted lamp. He slowly read the will un
til he got to the last clause, which be
queathes “sstomy son, Howard N. Hagee.”
Suddenly a hand was thrust up from be
hind Mr." MeGowan and under liis arms. It
grabbed the will with a determined clutch.
A'young man cried out:
“Ihis is not my father’s will. It is a
fraud.”
Mr. McGowan turned quickly, grabbed
for the will, failed to get it, and a violent
struggle followed. The young man who
grabbed the will was the disinherited son.
He seized McGowan aud threw him to the
floor. McGowan got up and dealt Hagee a
blow in the stomach which sent him to the
floor.
In the excitement the will hail been passed
from one to another and McGowan found it
outside on the floor of the poreti. The sig
nature to the will bad been lorn off. Mc-
Gowan ran a mile to the office of J ustice
Baer, where a search warrant wus issued.
Before this was served one of the mourners
produced the missing piece of the will, say
ing that he had found it. Tho mutilated
will was then put together and found to be
all right. Hagee, later, was also released
from custody. During the excitement sev
eral women screamed and fainted, and tho
preacher hurried away.
