4 MASS MEETING OF FREEDMEN.
We have received the proceedings
of a mass meeting of Freedmen, held
twelve miles north of Sumter, on Sat
urday last, which, We regret, the
crowded state of our columns docs not
permit us to publish in our present
issue.
1T this meeting the speakers were
all colorcd, and their remarks were
of such tone and character as to mer-
it the highest commendation from our
people. If the freedmen throughout
the country will but pursue the policy
indicated by the expression Of this
meeting, not only will peace and ac-
cord prevail, and abundant harvcsts
again smile upon our destitute land,
but they will be secured in their every
and privilege known to the laws of
the country-thc aplrcciatiTc, high
minded and just white race OF the
South rising en- massc for their pro-
lection.
The exercises Of the meeting were
opened with singing and prayer by
Rev. William Timmonds lcolorcd),
and the speakers were J. ". West
berry, Nelson Colcough, Alfred Da-
Wis, r. c. Wcstberry, and Isaac Nc
Laughlin,
These speakers all declared in ia.
vor of putting their rights and inter
ests in the hands of men with whom
they had been reared. In this they
thought the colored race would be
secure, for the constitution to be adop-
ted by the convention would be re-
ferred to the voters of tie State for
ratification, and should it be inimical
to them or in retrcnchment of their
rights, it could be by them rejected,
and it would be time enough for them
then to- withdraw their confidence
from their former masters.

Steamer Sunk.

We regret to learn, as we do from the Char
,cston papers of Monday, that the Steamer
u. B. VANCE, which has been running from
Charleston, to the Waterec Bridge, there con-
meeting with the Volunteer, of Camden, sunk
on Saturday evening from leak. The stea-
mer filled so rapidly after the discovery of
the leak, that she sunk in fifteen minutes.
\. part of her cargo was floating about tho
dock, small portion of which was saved, in
q damaged condition.
We understand that considerable guam
tity of corn !or the citizens of Camden and
vicinity was on board the boat.

DEATHS FROM CHLoROFoRM.-The
April number of fthc Medical News and
Library relates four cases of death
from the inhalation of chloroform-.
The first was of a lady, twenty, years
ofage, living in Bloomington, Illinois.
She was apparently in good health,
but suddenly expired after inhaling
about a drachm Of chloroform given
for the relief of pain in the extraction
of teeth. Three days previously she
had inhaled chloroform and had six
teeth extracted without any bad ef-
feet. The second case was on the
occasion of the performance of an
operation. by Professor Hamilton,
Of New York. The patient was a
robust woman. The third case was
of man in the hospital at Toronto,
Canada, to whom chloroform was ad-
minstered preparatory to tying the
external lilac artery. The fourth
case occurred in St. Mary's Hospital,
London. 1t was that or stableman,
to whom chloroform was administered
to facilitate the reduction Of q dislo-
Gated thumb. This and the first men.
toned case are additional proofs OF
the correctness of the statement made
a few days ago in our article on
chloroform, that, by far the largest
proportion of deaths has occurred in
the most trivial operations.
