O'Ferrall received last night the fodowiug letter from Senator Darl ing, who was one of the Maeaacbo setts legialative committee, who visited the executive mansion, and who has since given oat in Boston several interview regarding the treatment accorded Teamoh, the negro member of the committee: Hon. Charles O Jrerrall My JJear S:i: Perhaps yon have heard some thing ot the insufferable nonsense that waa telegraphed here from Richmond after our departure. The entire committee, incladiug Mr Teaaob, resent it with indignation I send yon by this mail copies of the Boston Journal and Boston Re cord, in which appear interviews with me. I beg to assure yon of onr hearty appreciation of all yon so kindly did for onr committee and to express the belief that these in terviews which are just published 10 night will correct the mean in sinuations and nntruth8 which were telegraphed here by some unscrup ulous sensationalist in liichmoud. Please give my kind regards to Mrs-O'Ferral whom I shall never forget for her charming courtesy and kindness. Very respectfully yours, Signed Thomas W. Daelixo1. State dorsE Boston, March 1M, 1895. To Gov. Charles T. O'OFerrell. To this the Governor replied as follow?; Richmond Va., March 21, 1895. Sknatoe Thomas W. Darling. State House, Boston, Mass: Dear Sir Responding to yours of the 19th instant. I will say that am utterly disgusted with the episode to which you refer. The time has not come when 1 wonld knowingly invite a committee ot anr kind in which there was a colored man to dine or lunch at my private house or the Gubernatorial mansion. While I trust I may never be so nnmindfnl of the dig nity of my official station as to treat a legislative committee irorn an other State, whatever may be their consideration or color, with dis courtesy when they are calling on me in their-onioial capacity and 1 am receiving i my omciai capac ity, yet candor requires me to say that if I had been aware, or it had even been intimated to me that colored man was in your party, my attentions would have been mncb mose formal than thev were, and yon wonld have been received at my executive office and not at the mansioo, for I draw the line oo the oegro at the social circle or anj where else that suggests even a semblance of social equality. Inter views with me have been published by my authority, and while I need no vindication before my own peo pie, I here denounce without qualification as absolutely untrue any statement, insinuation or in timation that the facts are at va riance with these published interviews. Candor n quires me further to say that I am utterly surprised to and that yon and some of yonr colleagues have made at home the statements yon have in the face of the expressions of disgust and an noyance you indulged in adlibitam in Richmond at having with you tha negro.

AND Ida M T.irb'-Il Writing in Mt-tTureN Magazine for March. j Josephine had long feared a separation. The Bnapartes had never cared for her, and even so far back as the Egyptian campaign had urged Napoleon to seek di vorce. 1 nwisely, Josephine hwd uot sought in her early married life to wiu their affection ny more thau she had sought to keep Na poleon'; and when the emperor was crowned, they had done their best to prevent her coronation. When, for state reasons, the di vorce seemed necessary, Josephine had no supporters where she might have had manv. j Her grief was more poignant be J cause she had come to loe her 1 husband with a real ardor.

Texas : is far bigger and a more popul j ous State that North Carolina;1 , which, however, has an advan tage over Texas in being nearer to those States in w I. :-h are the chief cities of the country. If some of our Southern States should think that it is unfair for us to put North Carolina and Texas in the front rank forener gy in the development of their resources and industries, we must ask them not to refer their j old almanacs, but to study the j living facts which we print from time to time- We are perfectlv well aware that North Carolina used to be a sleepy old State, and that Texas nseu to be a rougn-anu tumoie State. We are also aware that Georgia is going ahead, leading both Alabama and South Carol ina, and that old Virginia, which never tires, is looking both ways at once. We are aware of the sit uation in yet other States in the warmer regions of our country, includinceven Arkansas, known as the Bear State, on account of the abundance of bears in it, wild and hungry bear?. We are determined to give each of our once wayward sisters of thesuuny Shuth all that is due to her, with interest. We shall be pleased to hear from any one of them which may at any time think we are unfair to her. Meanwhile, after examining numerous business reports which we have received from North Carolina and Texas since the opening of the year 1894, we can not help saying mat tnese two verv interesting and aoounamg States seem to be in the front of the Southern boom. nflpr I h(i Cirr Al r n I v in .Tnnn: rv and Julv in each vear, saidilt,,a ;ertainly gave her ample meeting no! to continue loLger ! caupe for ";, anx.etv was well than two ,h, vs at each of stid i known to all the court, the secre lanes rsourneune nun itienevai, and Ma tame de Remnsat being her meetings: Provided, they may ltliinil wt :itiv mtittur nurtaininir to school interests at an v of thl ! 8Pe" " conbdants.

Savannah, Ga., March 19 The steamship Horsa, with 200 Ltberian emigrants, sailed from Savannah this afwrnoon. Five thooaand negroes gathered on '.he warfand cheered the vresel as it pasoed down the river. Knots oi negroes began gather ing in the vicinity of the dock at which the steamer was lying early this morning. The number kept increasing and at noon several thousand were packed in the streets and lanes and covered the roofs ot the buildings for several blocks. The effoit by Kev. U. S. Smith secretary of the Sunday school anion of the African Metho dist Church, who haa been endeav oring to prevent the clearance of the vessel, on the ground mat ene waa not properly equipped, failed to accomplished anything. The accommodations of the Horsa com plied fully with the Uw and the vessel passed a thorough inspection by the customs officials. Shortly after noon the gtes to :he wharf, where the emigrants were waiting, were opened and the negroes went aboard. It was a curious procession, ranging in 8ge from the baby in arms to the old. tottrriog on the verge of the grave. The women came first and made strange contrasts. One with a checked apron and a sunbonnet was followed by a juntily dressed girl of more tender years with gaudy plumed hat and bright rib bons. Some carried valises, others buckets, others tins, full of small articles. Alter the women came the men, some with Bhotguns or rides and others with assorted luggage. All were tent into the stern of the vessel and grouped together in order that a picture ol the vessel might be taken. The count showed 202. of which thirty-nine were children and seven infants The clearance pa pers put the number at l'JT. Over 400 trunks and boxes were tiken as baggage. In the boxes were agricultural implements, tire arms. ammunition, nonse-noia utensils and supplies, clothiDg, etc Tha Dartv is pro'oably the best eaoinped that has ever left Ameri ca for the Dark Continent. Since their ariival in Savannah they have spent probably 1,500 to i',000 lavincr in stores. The majority of the negroes appear to be still well annnlied with money, there is probably not a man in the party but who has sntliuient to provide subsistence for som time after landing in Lib ria. Supplied as thev are. there is do danger of the party starving to death or other wise suffering if there is any possibility of making a living at all in the land to which they are going. When the vessel's lines were oast off there was a cheer from the crowd on the wharven, and the emigrants sang their parting song: "I am going home to Africa's shores." The refrain was taken np by those ou shore. The singing was kept np until the vessel passed the city, the crowds following along the wharves shouting good byes. From the negroes gathered on the crowded deck of the steam ship came back answering shouts from men and women, while the color bearer of the party, a stordy negro of Bmall dimension, violently waved a large American nag that wilt be displayed as the iiorsa enters the, harbor of Monrovia.

If bis love hnd lost its illusion, he was genuinely attached to Josephine, and in a way she was necessary to bis happiness. Alter the ceremony of separation, be was to go Sc.

MARRIAGE TO MARIE I.ot l.SE Over two year. before the divorce a list ol the marriageable prin cesses of Europe had been drawn up lor Napoleon. Tois list mclu ded eighteen names in all, the two most prominent beiug Marie Louise of Amtri, and Anna Paulowna, sister of Alexander of Russia. At the Erfurt conference the preject ol a marriage with a Rassian pnnoess bad been discussed, and V'exander had favored i'; but now that an attempt was made to negotiate the aft'iir, there were numerous delays, and a general lukewarmneps which angered Napoleon. itfcoat wait ing for the ooinpletiou of the ltus sNn negotiations, he decided on Marie Loiise. F.om the flrt-t he wis frankly delighted with Marie Loo'st?. In fact, th new empress was a mo?t a' tractive girl, young, fresh, modest, well-bred, and innocent; she entirtly filled Napoleon'd ideal of a wife, and he certainly was happy with her.

Tbe houses at LoDg wood were damp and uuheal hy. There was no shade. Water had to be carried some three miles. The Governor, Sir Hudson Lowe, was a tactless mail, with a propen sity fjr bullying those whom he ruled. He was hauuted by the idea that Napoleon was trjing to escap.-, and he adopted a policy which was more 1 ke ihat of a .jail er than of an fli:er. In his tir-t interview with the emperor he to antagonized him that he soon re fused to see him.

The newspapers sent Na poleon were mutilated; certain books were reinsed; his letters were opened. A bust ot his eon brought to the island by a sailor was with held for weeks. There was inces sant haggling ovir the expenses ol his establishment. His friends were subjected to c instant annoy ance. All news of Marie" Louise and of his son was kept from biro.

No eooner was it decided that his future home should be the island of Elba, aud that its affairs stouldbe under his control, thau he began to prepare for the j urney to little kingdom with the same energy and ?ast which had chaiac ten?td his triumphal journeys as emperor.
