Rurnlars Arresfad.

Two negroes have been arrested at Ok
ford for committing burglary. The Ok
ford Citizen says:
For the past two or three weeks our
town has been infested with a gang of
thieves, who have been engaged almost
nightly in burglarious attempts on dwell
lings. On the night Of the 1st inst Mr.
McCord's clothing store was entered, and
lot of clothing, &C., was carried off
Suspicion rested upon two negroes, Ike
Roberts and Frank Grimes, who had Wis
tied the store several times previous to
the robbery. a strict watch was kept up
on their actions, and soon sufficient proof
was found against them to warrant their
arrest On Wednesday night the arrest
was made, and the negroes were locked up
in the calaboose to await examination.
The next day Mr.. McCord visited the
prisoners, and succeeded in getting Rob-
erts to disclose some facts connected with
the robbery, and to tell whore the clothing
was secreted.
After preliminary examination before
Mayor Crawford, Roberts and Grimes
we're committed to Jail, in default of bail.
The working up Of this case has brought
to light who were the thieves that broke
into Murre Il Black s grocery some months
ago. The store was entered three times.
On one occasion one dollar in coppers
was stolen from the drawer, and the same
coppers were aiterward paid TO the butch.
ers for meat by Roberts. We hope that
the arrest of these parties will put stop
to the burglary business. The prisoners
chances for residence at Columbus look
very bright.

TX Senator Brown of Mississippi writes
letter in which he says: "If the negro
is to stay here, and it is desirable to have
him do so, what is the duty of tho intelli-
gent white man toward him? Why, to
educate him, admit him, when sufficiently
instructed to the right of voting, and as
rapidly as possible prepare him for safe
and rational enjoyment of that equality
before the law which we can not long re-
fuse to give"

Freedmen's Meeting-They Demand
Equality-Goy. Johnson's Speech.
AUGUSTA, GA,

AUGUSTA, Ga, April IL.
There was a mass meeting of the freed
men to-day, and about | 600 present. Res
olutions were received, the substance Of
which was as follows:
That the loyal citizens of Georgia
should give united and continued support
to the Union and Republican party; that
there should be no distinction on account
of race or color in the enjoyment Of politi
cal rights; that the right to vote gives the
right to sit on juries; that corporal punish
ment should be abolished, being a relic of
barbarism; that the widows aud orphans
of those who died crushing the rebellion
are entitled to the nations protection aud
gratitude; and that the national debt is q
sacred obligation.
J. l.. Shepton, colored, spoke in sup
port of the resolutions, but his remarks
were conservative.
Gov. Johnson understood the object Of
the meeting to be for the purpose of ad-
vising and consulting with the colored
people, in order to form common plat
form on which the whites and blacks could
secure equal justice before the law, and
work in harmony together. lie was sur
prised to find the meeting called merely
for party purposes; he therefore spoke re-
luctantly and under disadvantages. Had
he known the programme had been pre-
viously arranged, he would not have been
present; he had been politely invited, how
ever, and he did not feel able to decline.
lie spoke not for the purpose Of defeating
the object of the resolutions, but advising
the best interest of the colored race
He advised them to be sober and indus
trious, and exercise tho right of franchise
judiciously, to avoid wicked, designing
men, who are in your midst to SOW discord
and strife.
ii ebelieved that the good and intelligent
white men South would do justice to the
negroes. lie would do all in his power to
improve the race in its social and political
scale. There is and should be no antago-

GOV. PEIRPoINT,s nEssAGE.

Wepublish to-day the Message Of Gov. PE1RPoINr
to the extra session Of the Virginia Legislature.
It is docum ent of extreme views respecting the
situation, and we only print it that our readers
may learn what is trunspiring in Virginia. The
press Of Richmond do not assail The Message.
They seem disposed to consider it's arguments /:
indeed has always been the case with Virginians
they evince a disposition, in this dark hour, to
squarely up to the necessities Of the OCCASION
and to consider the sad condition OF their Slate
with that ooolness and deiberation SO necessary
OF such times.
