rhe Reconsideration Conventions.

CHARLESTON, February 21.-The
Convention consumed to-day in de-
bate. Several leading colored dele
gates have gone to Washington, with
view to ascertain the probable re-
ception of colored Congressman, and
the chance of obtaining from Con-
gress land for the negroes.
RICHMOND, February 21.-In the
Convention, to-day was spent in dis
cussing suffrage. On the conserva-
tive side, it was assorted that the
white men of the State never would
submit to negro rule, and the men
, who fought under Lee would sooner
come out and. lie in the graves with
those who had gone before them.
The name of Lee elected applause
from the white spectators, which
was checked by the Chairman.
The speaker said the whites wished
the blacks well. and would be will
ling to be taxed heavily to colonize
them on the best lands the Govern
ment owned.

Fatal Accident near Fairfield
TWO PERSONS KILLED.

We learn By a lctter from Rev. Mr.. Bur
ges, Of this city, written at Summit Station
on yesterday, that q fearful accident occurred
Friday evening at Mitchell's crossing, near
Fairfield, on the b. 4 NJ. Railroad, resulting
in the almost instantaneous death Of two
young persons, "a youth and a miss and the
severe il not fatal injury Of three men. The
party was in the act OF crossing the road near
a curve, wholly unaware Of the approach Of
: train which swept around the curve, CONS
ing in contact with the vehicle before there
vas time for the possibility Of an escape.
One Of the injured men was Mr.. Long. The
names Of the others We did not learn. Mr..
l.. is effected with deafness, which may ac-
count in q measure for the accident. The
minutest details were not given us, however,
and We are not prepared therefore to give full
particulars at present. The vehicle WIS to-
tally demolished and the horses attached to
it were both killed.

THs Burlington argus has a Keokuk cor
respondent. That correspondents writes =
letter eulogizin9 Clagets and denouneing
McCrary. He closes his letter thus:
We wishthat truth would support us in stating
that McCrary was innocent during those mobs in
keokuk-which were 30 popular for years when
the Government q~uartered so many cowardly quiz
mines on our city and now We meet many ofthe So
called braves who boast that they served three
years in the war, and were never out Of keokuk
II 10 Islander on the true soldier to give such men
tho name Of soldiers,
Our hearts have been pair ID to witness this
man, George McGrary, indirectly, compliment
the mobocrsts, and says "Well, It's about right to
throw Clagetts prcsr in the river Berides this,
MeCrary has been true to his instincts in support
ing the county hendholders, and labored inces-
sanity to saddle this enormous debt on our coun-
ty. He is in favor Of railroad bands. a. well a.
the payment Of the amounted millions Of our
national debt in gold. and let the soldiers and
orphans take greenbacks.
AcirnEs.
LEE COUNTY, August 18th.
The man that wrote that is a LARA wlltul,
deliberate and villAinous liar. IF he had
signed his proper name instead Of an incog,
every man, woman and child in keokuk,
would have known him for a liar.
We will warrant he won repeat to the face
Of any one Of the "cowardly quinines'-he
means the brave soldiers sick or wounded in
the service Of the country. We warrant he
won't repeat to any Of them the cowardly
ISLANDERS that he publishes anonymously in q
paper in another county.
IA Citizen has had his heart panied
BY witnessing 'sthis man George McCrary,'
indirectly compliment the mobocrats''-he
means Union soldiers. About the same time
IA Citizen was having his heart dreadfully
panied, BY hearing Of rebel defeat. and
Union victories. "A citizen doesn't like
il because McCrary was popular with the
Union soldiers. IA citizen wasn't. IA
citizen probably would have been if they
had besn rebel aoldiers-especiallye if they
had been guerrillas and b~ushwhaclers. IA
