Philadelphia. Vov. 11.—In tbe ear
lier part of the p.resent century a large
cargo of slaves >l l rect frot Y the A rabic
speaking regions of Northern Africa
was secretly landed p.ear York! own.
This -cargo was delivered to ag<*ts.an<l
thus 800 intelligent M<Dh;unmwt*n light
skinned Africans were distributed
among the planters of Eastern Virginia.
Fierce as untamed tigers,these wild fol
lowers of 11st Prophet of Mecca gave
the slave owners moiv? trouble than anv
other 800 bueidsmen south of Mason anil
Dixon's line. Many of them escaped to
the North, and theii'descendants live in
Fayette county in this State. Among
tltemare the Jilues, Jacksons, Mundys,
Farmers. Mona ways, and others whose
thin foreheads, aquiline no
ses, superior intellectual capacity, and
splendid physique distingurf.li them
from full-blooded negroes. A Phila
delphia Times correspondent has found
among > hose people the old b. me of the
great False Prophet of So*:dan. His
story, wiichwillbe published to-mor
rr.w is this: Among these esc;ipcd Mo
hammedans warn* Gteorge J<fn nson and
wife. George’s real name wins J.eyash
El Asewah. Ho was a sheik and priest
||f the order of llani. Fur several years
Pne livediin the muamtain near Connes
ville, but, fearing ‘recapture, went te
Canada. In 1850 he returned to Penn
sylvania and settled in Unioutown. In
1854 he removed to Ilpwiwville, and
subsequently to Httsbffrgh, where he
died in 3870 at a very advancedilgejin
1830, while at Connesville kisFoArißru
as was born. At tfee age
had learned the Koran from his father.
No turneted mosque reared fits massive
walls, no bearded Muezzin called the
‘ ex-slave and his family to worship, but
Beyush .El Asewak never fongot “There
iy but one God, and Mohammed is his
Prophet, and in a land of Christian
strangers secretly adhered to the faith
. of his fathers.
■ In 1849 Thomas Johnson -drifted to
KteUifarriia, to return to Uniontown. i
■Two years later, ii 1853,hewent to Far- !
■is and joined the F ranch Army. Ho was :
Rent to Algiers at t In* close of his term ;
Rf service. He jdf negfa eaeavan and
■crossed Sahara south \Wrrd into Soudan. ]
R'or several years ke lived Aong the \
Rati vs of that almost inacßsilSe re-,
Hgion. alii<lost perfecLjßstery '
R>f the his superiorßßowi- j
Rdge of tlie arts of civilization; and es- j

■ a leader. In 18(i2, when hnAnard of 1
Rhe wartd' rebellion,
■tion to Itelp tree the the >
■South, he wrote a long letter ™Pres- '
■ ident Lincoln ottering to recruit a
■thousand Arab zouaves for the Union
■army if the United States would flkir-
transportation. The letter gofii
i the newspapers, and was published
Ra great joke. In 18fl5 he returned
fpißt as the war closed, and visited < ’on-
Uniontown, HrownsviLle.aml
RRn to Pittsburgh, to see liis aged fat li
Rd thence to Soudan, where lie ac
■Rired a greater influence than ever
the semi-civilized peopte of that
country, and claimed prophet
■fjpowers. As time rolled on his wealth
■and power increased, and when the En
■ glisli invaded Egypt he proclaimed hiin
■self Imau Mahdi, or the last prophet
■Allah shall send to conquer tlißieinies
■pf Islam and rule supreme over tlie
Rvorld. While Arabi Pasha was suffer-
IRring defeat, rumor has it that the
alse Fropliet was achieving extraordi-
Rary victories and slaying thousands of
Riis foes. According to the Mohamme-
Ran belief Iman Mahdi is to come with
Rcreat signs and wonders just before the
|Rdgment day. He will appear on a
gßiilk white charger, accompanied bwm
|Rinumeral>le army of bearded MuHTl
|Rians, all mounted on snow white stal
■ons. The Iman Mahdi must be avisi-
with power and victory on his
Ride. If he manages to spread 'the re-
that he is killing Jews. Christians,
ißul pagans by thousands, he may lie
|Rgeepted most willingly by the Moslem!.
|Rhe defeat of Arabi, who claimed to
tor the cause of Islam, mav cause
REll^fohammedans to turn to Johnson
■is their coming Prophet.
R It nitty be added that one of the False
■Prophet's hundred wives is a native of
■ Fayette county, an octoroon from Un
■ iontown. she accompanied him to
V Mecca and to At idea in iKflo, and is said
I to be the mistress of liis harem. She,
too. is a direct descendant of the Arabs

r COMPTROLLERS BE PORT.
The annual report of Comptroller Gen- 1
eral Wright haa been issued. It
portant in its contents.
It shows some very important as well
as gratifying things concerning the in
crease-ot the taxable value of property
in the state. The report covers 171 pag
es and is principaly of tabbu
latpd statements which it * impossible
to reproduce here.' The staternent of
receipts and disbursements shows that
the balance in the; treasury October
7th, 1881, was $784.547,51. and the re
ceipts tt) September 30th. 1882, $1,669-
432: 10 making a total to be aceounted
mr 0f|82.403,370.61. Thelunountlpaid out
warrants from October Ttli, 1881,-to
leaving balance in the treasury el £690,-
472,15. This is not all cash but Ttpre
#ents cash values with the exception of
the money still due ti’rom the broken
state depositories, the Citizens' Bank
and Bank of Home. The tietua"' (cash is
m tlt-e value of property
is verwrnarked. It amounts in actual,
figures ho $16,256,517>. The total value
of property in 1881 was 8370,m,889. So
that the value of the taxable property
in 1882 ifS $287,249,481, Ihe ixerea.se in
cotton arnanufactures is a little over sl,~
000,00ft;-city and town property. $4,931,-
186, and railroads, $1,985, 169. Iu speak
ing of -the state’s revenue; Mr. Wright
says that for the next two years, so
rapidly are we regaining our former
wealth there will be n necessity for an
increase in the rate of taxation in oc
der to meet the demands of
the state. The increase for £BB2 added
to the increase fvr. the two years amotin
ting to 888. 232.661. At tie present
rate of taxation the revenue has been
increased in the t urn of $10t*,698. Tiks
state of affairs is mot merely spasmodic,
hut K: the outcome of the (progressive
spirit witli which the people areßbeiis.g
imbued, the natural that
Geoqgia is blessed with as a state, and
the wise administration of ‘Eioine gov
ernment,” and will doubtlese increase
so rapidly in the next lew years thattfne
state’s indebtedness can ajidlwill be met
at even a less rate of
that which is now being levied.
