Nkw York, Nov. 13.—A cargo of
Navasra slaves has arrived at Perth
Amboy in the barkeiitine Robert S. Pat
terson, which dropped anchor at the
month of Staten Island, Captain John
Barton reported at once to the health
muhoritict that his crew was in good
health, but that there was sickness
among his passengers.
The barkentiae left X\avassa 14 days
ago for Carteret. While loading, the
negroes begged the captain for God’s
sake to bring them home. Some of them
had teen on the island nearly a year,
others loss nine; but all regarded it as a
place oi torment. Their diet was chiefly
salt [Kirk and hard bread. The island
is a barren rock anti the water caught
when the occasional rains fall is not fit.
to drink. The men work in the burn
ing snn witnout protection and they
soon take sick.
When he sailed Captain Barton took
- 7 i of the poor follows with him. They
ware in good health, although weak
lrom previous illness, when they
shipped, but sickness soon developed,
scurvy appeared among them, and
within a few days death claimed three.
Tli-y were V uried at sea and everything
possible done to save the lives of the
others. Thev had been short of pro
visions while on the island and were
weak, too, from that cause. They were
fed well and not made to do any con
siderable work on the homeward voy
age.
Just before Sandy Hook was reached,
the fourth man died. He was laid out
on the forward hatch and covered with
a piece of sail cloth. Here, Deputy
Hea-ih Officer Parker boarded the ship.
The sick were below deck, with the ex
ception of those who were able to hob
ble about. There were boys still in
their teens and men old and bent. All
bore the marks of disease and hard
work, but all were happy at the thought
of being in ■■ ight of laud.
They laughed and cracked jokes as
the health officer examined a number
of them. Parker is an old pilot, and
knows little of medicine, but he went
ashore a. id sent for his superior, D-.
Ramsay The latter could not be founo,
and Dr John Lund volunteered his ser
vices. lie went off to the vessel lying
in midstream and exam.nod the men
and pros- ribed for them, but had no au
thority to order the ship’s detention.

ter of the vessel readily assented to the
quarantine.
The negroes were disappointed be

Chairman Carroll said there ha d not
been and would not be the slightest ir
regularity countenanced. He would not
be for a moment connected with any
thing savoring of fraud.
“If,” said he, “we were willing to
steal ballots we could uot under any cir
cumstances afford it. On the other
hand, the Republicans must bo as clean
as we are. The correct vote of each
county must come to the capital. Then
the candidate who has the highest vote
must be seated.”
The Trouble In tho Tenth Georgia.
Augusta, Nov. 13.—In concluding his
charge to the grand jury, Judge Roney,
of tho superior court, touched upon
elections in this manner:
"Another matter of importance I oall
your speoial attention to. I am glad to
seo that there is a growing demand from
every section for purer methods in elec
tions in this state. The prostitution of
the ballot is a crime against the law,
and a blot nr>on our civilization. It un
dermines the principles of free govern
ment and defeats the will of the people.
If the pnblio press is to be believed no
political party is exempt from nnfair
and fraudulent practices in this respect.
“I would have the ballot pure and
free from even the suspicion of fraud
so that no dissatisfaction or cause of
complaint conld arise from the exercise
of the elec tive franchise. We have
laws npou oar statute books punishing
illegal voting, but the consensus of
opinion seems to be that they are defi
cient in securing fair elections. I ©all
your attention to them and ask you to
enforce them. If not effective I ask
you, in your general presentments, to
request the legislature, now in session,
to pass an election law, so guarded as to
forever, hereafter, prevent the prostitu
tion of the ballot. This much the peo
ple demand and they should have.”
THE ALABAMA MUDDLE.
Populism Swallow Up tho JrlT-noglu Or.
gululloa—Kolbltr* ore No Store. ^
Montgomery, Nov. 73.—Beyond the
adoption of a long set of resolutions,
which made no definite declarations
and mapped out no line of policy, the
meeting held in this city of dissatisfied
Democrats accomplished only one thing,
and that wav the merging of that ele
ment into toe Populist ranks and a com
bination ou t-iat line.
A resolution was introduced providing
for the appointment of a state executive
cowm.tt.e to mauapulate iu common
the uffair.-i of the Populists and the Jef
fersonian Democrats. It prevailed. A
reconsideration of the resolution was
afterward vote.1, and it was so amend
ed as to consolidate the Jeffersonian
Democratic party with the Popuiist
party and all anti-Democrats uot Re-
i iabucam in Alabama will hereafter be
mown as members of the People’s jvs>
ty, the name of Jeffersonian having
be ‘U dropaed.-
The resolutions declared that the state
ticket headed by Captain Kolb was
e.eetoil o.i Ang. 6 lasr, an-1 that by “cor
rupt practices in election methods by
thieves, perjurers and public officials in
Alabama, particularly iu Dallas, Wil
cox. Lowndes, Hale, Bollock, B rbour,
Marengo, Montgomery and Monroe
counties.” They were counted out.
“And, while recognizing tho just and
lawful demands of the people who now
protest against further peaceable sub
mission to the unlawful and corrupt
methods of ballot box staffers, we deem
it inexpedient at this time to inaugu
rate and maintain a de jure govern
ment. And there are reasons for ad
vising farther forbearance under exist
ing conditions.”
The reasons given are these:
“The present de facto administration
will uphold the state officials who have
been fraudulently declared elected with
Colonel Oates as the de facto governor.
Such policy would result in maintaining
by force an independent state govern
ment with Captain Kolb as governor,
should he be inaugurated.
“The present federal administration
is in accord with the dowinautolgarchy
iu this state, and, so far as necessary,
would protect and uphold the adminis
tration headed by Colonel Oates without
regard to tlieAxpressed will of the peo
ple.”
In view of these things, they content
ed themselves with publishing their
grievances to the world, and demand
ing the enactment of fair election laws,
the Sayer law being manifestly defect
ive.

* Washington. Nov. 13.—There ia no
longer any doubt that an issue of bonds
has been definitely decided upon, and is
cau be stated on good authority that a
circular asking for bids will be issued
daring the present week, probably by
Thursday. ‘
It is fully realized that the gold re
serve has now reached a point where it
conld be completely wiped out by a few
heavy shipmonts, and it is thought to
be the part of wisdom not to wait until
the gold in the treasury is practically
exhausted before making an effort to
recoup it.
Wednesday last Mr. Carlisle, after
several consultation* with the president,
wrote to President Stewart, of the
"United States Loan and Trust company
of New York, reciting the law as to an
iasne of bonds, and asking hia opinion
as to which class of bonds conld be
placed at this time to the greatest ad
vantage to the government.
The result of this correspondence was
that the president and Mr. Carlisle de
cided to make the forthcoming issue
the same in amount and rate, and, in
nearly all other important particulars,
the same as the February issue. The
circular is now being prepared, and in-
dicatiius point to an official announce
ment at ouoe.
