At meeting of the citizens of Liberty
and adjoining townships, held on Thursday
Jan. 25th, 1855, in Portage, Wood county,
Ohio, it was resolved that we proceed to or

object of said meeting, whereupon, ,on motion,
CoLLIsTER HAsKINs was elected chairman,
JOSEPH SARGENT, treasurer, and Mr.. EMER-
SON, secretary.
On motion, a committee Of three was APP
pointed to draft resolutions for the consid-
Grafton of the meeting Mr.. Lundy, James
McFadden and John Elder were appointed
said committee. Mr.. Lundy asked to be ex-
cused, and Thomas Fearnside was appointed
in his stead. The chairman then stated the
object of the meeting, which was to hear
from Mr.. Green and others on the subject of
taxation. The meeting was then addressed
by MeSsrs. Green and Emerson on the sub
ject of high taxes. The committee reported
the following resolutions, which were unan-
imously adopted;
Re8olued That there be committee of one

The Four Points.

When the news was heralded to the world
that Russia was ready to negotiate on the
basis of the four points, which she had pre-,
viously refused to do, anticipations were
confidently expressed that peace would be
the result. How we'll founded such hope,
may be gathered from an examination of the
-four points. Here they are:
|. The abolition Of the protectorate of
Russia over the Danubian municipalities, and
the privileges of those provinces placed un-
der the collective guarantee OF the contract
ing powers.
?. The free navigation of the mouths Of
the Danube secured according TO the princi
pies established by the congress of Vienna.
3. The revision of the treaty of 18th July,
lS4l, in the interest of the balance of pow
cr i'll Europe"
A. The abandonment by Russia of her
claim to exercise an official protectorage
over the Christian subjects Of the Porte TO
whatever rite they might belong,) in con-
sideration of the powers giving their mutual
assistance to obtain from the Sultan a con-
tirmation and observance of the religious
privileges Of all Chris!an communities.
1t will be perceived that on every one Of
them there is all endless chance for dispute
and negotiation. In Europe the preparations
for war are not aba ted. The allies rein
forced, are not less desperate because baffled,
and the Car was supposed to be concentra-
ting his troops as vigorously as ever at the
.foci of the war. The suspicion was general
ly expressed that the Car was only endeav-
oring to gain time. The people of France
and England will not allow Of any relaxa
ton, however, on their part. Sardinia has
Joined the allies. 1t is said that demand
will be insisted on that Russia limit her ma
val forces in the Black Sea, and that here
will be question upon which the beliger-
ent parties are sure to differ.-[Toledo Blade.

Some time since, Judge Wright of Cincin

arrangement was Effected and this is all the

The Cost OF A WORTHLESS ENvoY.--It
is stated that the American merchants OF
Greytown, who lost their property by the
bonn bardment and destruction of that place,
are now besieging the executive authorities
at Washington with demands for indemnity.
President Pierce in his annual message. spoke
of these Greytown people as a sort Of refu-
gees, outlaws and pirates, not recognized by
any government, nor entitled to respect
Congress has now a chance TO see some
specimens of the community, and judge for
itself. They are probably the most respec-
table and intelligent refugees and outlaws
ever seen there. Though the administration
has felt itself necessitated to shoulder this
affair, aud defend it as unavoidable, yet we
can scarcely believe it sincere in so doing
the more especially as the worthless envoy.
Borand. who was the prime cause of the
whole difficulty, has been consigned to mer-

a LARGE Story. We read in the south
western papers some incredible accounts OF
the extent of the emigration to Trxas. For
instance, the Galveston Times, of Jan. 9Th,
says that such was the rush of emigration
westward, that wagons had to wait al Waco
two weeks before their turn came TO cross
the Brazos river, and that the news from ev
cry thoroughfare of travel in Texas was of
similar character.

The excitement was intense until word came
that she was uninjured.
The Washington Sentinel saws that from

in stating that he neither desires nor would
receive the democratic nomination for the

The board of public works actually expend-

than they reported, and the actual net pro-
ceeds, instead of being $475, 900, as in 1917,
were only about $4,000. By collecting in
the surplus revenue, that had been loaned out
among the people, and by other means, the
pubhc debt had been reduced SO that the
annual interest in 1853 was about $3.50, 900

compelled to raise from their own pockets,
about 100000 more for this purpose in
1853, than they paid in l8l7.
