The enterprising Charleston Nacs d Courier sent out a special cur respondent .u the baniuelor,wljich carried out the batth of Liberiau ' emigrants, some months ago.and this correspondent.A. B. Williams by name, has published some very interesting letters in the AVtc.9 & Courier, describing the situation- at Monrovia, the Liberiau capitol, wbich'bc found to be a town of two or three thousand inhabitant?, in a state of great dilapidation and decay. The streets were overgrown with, weeds, and a small foot path in the middle alone indicated the foot of man or breast. A few dilapidated and sunken boats were the indicia of its commerce. Every house and public buildiag was going to ruin and the peo ple were subsisting on imported food. Says he : . ; t Cassada, the great staple of the coun try, sells at fifty cents per bushel, a bushel of the roots being about equal to a bushel of sweet potatoes; yams sell at the same price. Fresh meat is almost impossible to get. Even chickens aie ex ceed' jgly scarce, and very small ones sell at twenty-five cents eachi Eggs are three cents apiece by the dozen. Ameri can llour $14per barrel. American pork is $23 per barjrel. English canned meats and vegetablc$ are fifty cents per can. Onions (English) bring twelve cents per pound. That is about all the Monrovian bill of fare, and it is largely procured from English mail steamers, which nom- inallv Dass twice a week. Even in the country they live largely on ' IJirOUTED FOOD. In answer to inquiries- on the subject I was told that jit was supposed that beets, carrors, parsnips, onions, peas, beans, potatoes, Arc, would grow there, but they have never tried. Everybody coincided in my expressions of wonder, and everybody re-echoe l iug set phrase, "Yes, it ought to ba done, but you see what we lac k here is enterprise; enter prise, sir, new blood and capital, would 1 .1 f it Ai ' mase tn:s country one ot ine greatest in the worlds Our resources, sir, It seems to me Fve heard something of that sort down South in Dixie. The contrast between Liberia and Sierra Leone strikes one forcibly and- hourly, but in nothing more than in the matter of food. In the latter place we procured an'abund ance of all fresh meats, fruits and veget ables cheaply. There is a large, brisk looking market, and nice brisk looking loaves of bread sell ou the streets at a penuy. In Liberia there is no fresh meat (denominated '"fresh."). Hard raking lor two weeks procured us about' four dozen chickens- '(marvels of lankriess), which the steward always dispatched with trembling eagerness to prevent dissolution from inanition, as they always seemed oifi tho very verge of it when brought aboard! Monrovia sends sixty milcB down tho coast to Grand Rassa for fowls, f Vegeta bles it was impossible to get, and although mrfngoes, delicious pineapples, oranges, banaans, lemons, limes, cocoanuts, bread fruit, butter pears, soursaps and other fruits maybe had for the gathering almost any where, they were scarce and high. The Azor landed at Monrovia about the first of June, with two hundred and fifty-five negro emigrants, some of whom were probably without a dollar in the world, and all of them looking forward to Liberia as a laud ll jwing with milk and honey and where ; hey had but to pluck the watermelons and cat. There was only three weeks supply of 'provisions on board, although tho Exodus Association of Charleston had contracted to furnish them a six mouths' supply of food on landing. The rainy season, which is dreaded so mucli, begins about the first of June and continues for three months. MRS. SOTIIERX. This bloody dame, says tb.3 Macon Tclcgraih in reported to bo very se rene and happy in her penitentiary quarters, and gets along on about hal the workshs would bo required to do at home. Nor, according to a letter published in the Savannah Xews, written by the famous Kata herself, is 6he even re quired to wear the usual striped gar rneuta of a convict.

Aew days since Judge Cocke published a letter in tlieJackaoayUle., (Fla.)

BAllD MOUNTAIN UNDER SCIEN TIFIC LIGHT. Prof. Kerr, who. recently visited Bald Mountain, Rajs that the distur bances there four years ago were due to the forces which - first formed the mountain chains, auti have continued operative ever aiua lhat is to tay, the lateral contineLtal pressure from the Atlantic inward. Tnis pressure is caused by the , gradual cooling and consequent shrinking of the faith's crust. This pressure is crowding the rocks back upon eacu other and uplift' ing them, subjecting them to enor mous strain. ( Wheu the pressure reaches the point of fracture, tne rooks give way and there is"a grinding and sliding of tb.9 rocksj with an accom panying perturbation, tremulationand noise. The conditions of a voldano do not and never have existed. The late phenomena, however, are proba bly due mainly or wholly to the mere action of gravitation in connection with the ordinary process of disinte gration of the rocks, which in that par ticular locality , ia accelerated by the numerous joinings which may be ob served traversing the faces 6i the cliff. Asheville Citizen, How clear, how lucid and how de lightfully satisfactory, especia'y as re gards the four years ago part. The only wonder is that Prof. Kerr is willing to pin his reputation as a .scientist on such a thin thing. MOOXSniNE- 1 1 hud our i recp recommendations verv good, Bridget.'"
