Emancipation Celebration.

The colored people of this place, desiring
to celebrate the emancipation of their race
from slavery, had arranged for a proper dem
onstration on the first of August, a day hon.
ored By them as the anniversary of West In
dia Emancipation. We are assured that am
pie preparation and arrangements had been
perfected to have secured a fine celebration
here, had not the weather, on the morning
of the first, proved so very unfavorable.-
Hundreds who had been expected, were pre-
vented by the rain from coming. 1t had
been arranged for a meeting at the fair
grounds, but this was necessarily abandoned,
and the meeting convened at 2 o'clock, at
Webb's Hall, to hear the address. The Hall
was crowded, the larger proportion of the
audience being whites. The first speaker
was Mr.. q. N. RANKIN, an intelligent col
ored man, who served his country in the
war, and has since been engaged as a teach
er in the coIored Schools at Memphis, Tenn.
He was present and witnessed the Memphis
riots and massacre, and gave the audience q
brief statement of its origin.
The orator of the day was JOHN NJ.
LANGsToN, Esq, perhaps the ablest colored
orator in the Union, and among the fore
most in Ohio, white or black. Mr.. Langs-
ton is a thoroughly educated man, and a
well read lawyer. His effort here was one
of the most logical, eloquent and high toned
political speeches we nave ever had the pleas
ure of hearing. As an orator, both il man
ner and matter, he exhibits unusual power,
and inspires al audience with enthusiasm.
and by the truthfulness of his arguments,
carries conviction to candid minds. His
speech was universally conceded to be a
strong, earnest vindication of the claims of
the black man to political rights. During
Its delivery, there was frequent applause,
while an occasional cut of sarcarm or fash
of wit kept the audience in a very happy
mood. However much the colored people
may regard their celebration a failure in some
of its features, they NAV congratulate them
selves that the intellectual part of the pro-
gramme-the best part-was faithfully car
ried out to the satisfaction of all.
The day passed off without any unpleasant
occurrences, and the department of tho col
ored people, and their genteel appearance,
were highly ereditable. to them, and gave
their enemies no room to say aught to their
disparagement.

Capture of a Horse Theft.

On Tuesday night, of last week, Mr..
JAMES RAY, of Braceville, had a horse sto-
len. The next morning Mr.. Ray came to
town, and learned that q man on horseback
had passed through this place, by way of
the Bazetta Plank Road, about daylight
kilograms, giving 3 description ofthe horse,
were sent to various points, one going to
Orangeville, where a couple of young men,
ANDREW and HENRY, sons of THOMAS BIG
eKN, OF Vernon, had taken a load of hay
They learned the facts given in the dispatch,
and on their return home, reported the same.
A little girl in the family mentioned that
she had seen q man, about an hour previous,
pass with q horse answering the description
given, and had observed him frequently look.
Ing back, as if expecting some one was COM
ing. The boys Immediately concluded he was
the theft and started in pursuit, overtaking
the horseman at about six miles, and near
the State line in Kinsman. They rode along
side Of him for some time, and answered sew
eral ofhis inquiries about where good cattle
might be had, he representing himself as a
cattle dealer. It was noticed that the fore
head and feet of the horse had been daubed
with paint, to conceal the white spots there
on, and this left no doubt Ii the minds of
the young men of the horse being stolen
Noticing two men coming, they concluded
their time had COM to attempt an arrest.
and one of them dismounted very quickly
and LAID hold of the rider, while the other
grasped the bride. In a moment he was
tumbled out of the saddle, and informed that
he was arrested as a horse theft. He denied
the charge, but the boys told him they would
take him on suspicion. he was taken before
q Justice, in Kinsman, who sent him in
charge of a constable to this place, where
the horse was identified as Mr.. RAY's, and
the theft as being one SMITH PARKER, who
has been employed by different persons here
as a teamster. He is now In Jail awaiting
a trial at the next Court. The young men
one aged Is years and the other 2O-deserve
praise and q liberal reward for the active
part they had in the arrest of the theft.
