NEGRO MEETING ON THE CAPITOL SQUARE
IESTERDAY.-A meeting of several hun
drcd negroes was held on the Square yes
terday afternoon, and resolutions adopted
declaring that in view Of the efforts of the
Conservatives to intimidate colored voters,
John NJ. Bolts, Governor Peirpoint, Frank
lin Stearns, Judge Rives, Lewis Mcken-
zie, and others, be requested to call a
State Convention of white Republicans to
assist and direct colored people in carry
ing the election for the ratification Of the
Constitution. Other resolutions were
adopted averring that in no case will the
negroes vote for any one opposed to their
freedom and education.
These fellows arc some Of the same ne
gro mob that drove Bolts and his co0pera-
tionists out of the African church in Au-
gust last, refused then to heed the warn
ings or listen to the advice of their white
Republican friends, and who, seeing the
tide Of public Indignation against negro
suffrage sweeping over the North, and be-
holding the uprising Of the whole white
population of Virginia to resist the effort
to clothe this brutal and ignorant black
mob with political power, now cry out to
Bolts and the white Radicals to come to
their help. But their cry comes too late
The whites Of Virginia, without regard to
any minor political questions, are all de-
termned that the negro shall not rule them
"Down with negro suffrage" will be the
rallying cry in the coming canvass, and
any constitution containing negro suffrage
will be rejected by 10000 majority.

McKenny, from Leake's Turnout, in
Hanover, was riding out Second street on
Thursday evening just after dark, on his
way home. On Second street between
Duval and Jackson is culvert now being
constructed, and as the lad approached it,
being unable, in the dark, to see it, he
guided his horse full at it. The horse fell
precipitately into the culvert, about six
feet in depth, burying his rider beneath
him, and hurting him seriously. He was
badly bruised about the head and body.
The horse was also injured. The boy was
carried into neighboring house and pro-
perly cared for.

ARRIVAL OF COLONISTS FROM NEW YORK.
The steamer Albemare on her last trip
brought to Richmond twenty persons, COM
posing the families of DR.. William Il.
Bates, Messrs. William Russell, Reuben
Wilson, Theodore Wilson, and Hezekiah
Davenport. These parties have left their
homes in Albany and Greene counties,
New York, to become citizens Of the State
of Virginia. They have purchased nearly
a thousand acres Of land in King William
county, about nine miles from West Point,
and propose to devote themselves to the
cultivation of the soil with view prnci-
pally to the raising of hops for market.
We have been informed that it was not
without much opposition from their friends
in the Knickerbockcr State that these
persons came to cast their lot with us; but
firmly convinced that they could succeed
here, and hoping to be kindly received,
they determined to try the experiment.
Should it prove successful, it is probable
that many more from the same section OF
country will join those who have come out
from among them.
To witness the influx Of intelligent and
entcrprising families such as these seem
to be must be source Of pleasure to
all who properly appreciate the import
auce of white immigration to the future
of our old Commonwealth. We want
here a little of the agricultural skill
and experience Of these tillers Of the soil.
We want an Infusion Of the industry and
enterprise which they have been called
upon to exercise through several genera
tions. None, therefore, can regret to see
northern men of right feeling adopting
Virginia as their home, and tarming-not
politics--as their occupation.
We bid these New Workers cordial
welcome and hearty "God speed"
trusting that they may prove only the pio-
neers of an immigration movement which
will yet result greatly for the upbullding
of Virginia's fallen fortunes.

der Williamson has Just returned from Il viSi,
TO Scotland. While there he visited several OF
the best agricultural sections of the Lothians,
and from frequent conversations ne had with
the farmer hands, male and female, h.
found that they were most anxious TO bet ter
their condition and prospects by emigrating
20 tn" United States, but the only draw back
10 such a contamination was the want OF
means, their humble pittance in the shape OF
wages and "kind y not permitting them to
put anything in store for contingencies. From
their provcrbial thrift intelligence, domcs tic
discipline, and thorough agricultural know
ledge and experience, there is 10 nationality
that would sooner aid in the material develop
meut Of this country, and in fostering and
maintaining hcalthinl public sentiment. 1t
would b" well, therefore, that measures were
promptly taken for their transportation and
immediate employment on landing on ou!
