xENIA AND THE CoLoRED PEOPLE,


The Newspapers Of Xenia, the Republican es'
pecikli'y keep up their war upon the colored people
Of the town and county. They are making the
most desperate and inhuman application of Judge
Taney's com comprehensive decision. The Xenia pa
pers are making war upon the life and means oil
existence of their colored neighbours. 1t will be
remembered by our readers that the Methodist
Episcopal church, has an institution OF learning
in Green county for the exclusive education OF col
ored pupils. This is perhaps one reason why
greater numbers Of this class have congregated
there. The opposition of the Republican papers
Of Xenia to this class of inhabitants is worthy The
character Of Kansas border rufians or Of a mot
Of Carolina sandhillers.
The Xenia Torch Light, q Republican paper
hopes to Danish them by Withholding employment
and thus bringing upon them starvation. Its piar
is explained in the following extract taken from
one Of its articles.
"Men swear about them, (ths negroes) and ther
sell to them--talk about q ruined community, an'
then trade with them and seek their trade. Now
let us stop the traffic, and thus put an end to tn
inaux, or stop the talk and hide the inconsistency
We prefer the former"
The Democratic Logan County Gazette which
no better than it should be, hates niggers as oa'
as anybody, Republican or Democrat, but whicI
has the grace not to boast of being anti'siaVery
scores away at the inconsistency of the Republ
can Torch Light, as follows
1--WE beg to call the readers attention to tn,
monstrous and inbuman means which the Tore
proposes TO get rid of the negroes. 1t propose
40 .stop traffic with them. That is, it proposes t
buy nothing of them, and sell nothing to them
If the poo- sawyer, or the washerwOman, ask
employment that they may buy Il little meal 70
their furnishing offspring. the Torch says don
employ them If, having procured a little money
they ask to buy q loaf of bread or a piece of beet
to satisfy the demands of nature, the Torch says
Don't sell it to them We say that this is inhu
NAV; and emanating as it does from q newspape
which has made its full share of clamor for negr'
rights and negro equality, it betrays u depth o
hypo cricy that our political observation furnishe
no parallel for. Why does not the Torch say a
once, Give the poor wretches strychni1ep |
would be a more merciful suggestion than the SLOW
starvation which it advocates.
Gracious! how the Torch was shocked whe'
Judge fancy remarked that there was once n tim
when mankind believed that the negro had n
rights which the white man is bound to respect
Had Judge fancy known the state of public opin
ion in Xenia, he might have truthfully added, tina
'even now. in ultra Republican localities, this dia
bolical sentiment is entertained
We commend the resolution Ct the Torch It
stop it's talk, and hide its inconsistency!
Such Democrats andRepublicans are of one hear
and one soul on this question, and but for the be,
ter chances of Office in tco parties might as wei
commipgle into one.

Double uTder.

GOSHEN, Orange Co., N. Y, Aug. l4.-Lasi
night, at about half-past nine o'clock, our
village was alarmed by the intelligence that
a double murder bad been committed at the
house Of Charles Reeve, in Hamptonburg,
about two miles from here, on the Newburg
road. Some twenty of our citizens immedi
ately repaired to the scene, where they learn
ed the following particulars.
MIR. Reeves and his family were absent
from home, leaving their house 10 the charge
of their three servants, William Saunders,
Peter Shorech, and Margaret Shealy. 1t
seems that Peter and Margaret were to be
married next week, and they had been pass
ing the evening together, in the room of the
latter. At about 8 o'clock, just as be was
leaving Margarets room, Peter was met at
the door by William, who without word
passing between either, shot him through the
right breast. Peter turning back, opened the
door, through which be had just passed and
fell dead across the threshold.
The murderer, rushing into the room over
the dead body of his first victim, shot Mar.
garet also through the breast, the ball passing
out behind, just below the shouder-blsde.--
She turned, and jumping out Of the open win
dow to the ground, some twenty feet, man
aged to crawl through the garden andorchard,
nearly quarter Of mile, to the house OF Mr..
Case, who Immediately gave the alarm. Tie
murderer has not yet been arrested, but the
whole country is aroused and searching for
him. The woman is still alive, but cannot
survive but few hours longer.

Southern Cattle.

There is considerable increase in the num-
Der of cattle and swine reaching this market
from the South. Upon the Baltimore and
Ohio railroad, there are almost daily trains
of twenty-five to thirty cars, each capable of
holding thirty cattle, destined for the Balti-
more and Philadelphia markets. The cars
are peculiarly adapted to the purpose of trans
porting this species of freight, and cattle
reach market 10 remarkably good condition

The Reason Why.

We have been considerably puzzled ever
since the appointment Of MIR. John Nugen'
as envoy to Fraser River, to know what the
object Of bis mission is, and what be is to do
after be gets there. A late letter from Wash
ington to New York paper, explains the
matter to our entire satisfaction. We give 1t
up. The writer says:
"Mr. N. was appointed because no other
convenient place could be found for bim.-
lie had been candidate for various offices
in California, all Of which were appropriated
by more fortunate applicants"
1t is consolatory to know that the secret OF
Mr.. Nugenfs mission has at last been dis
covered. He was appointed because no
other convenient place could be found for
him. "-Lynch. FTg.
