HELENA, MONTANA, May 3.-This morning
meeting Of citizens was called to decide
what should be done with the prisoners A.
L. Compton and Joseph Wilson, who had
been identified by Lenhart, the man whom
they robbed and attempted to kill on the
night of the twenty seventh April. District
Judge Simmons first addressed the meeting
and strongly protested against any inter.
ference with the civil law, stating that the
time for q vigilance committee had passed,
and advised the people to disperse.
The meeting was then addressed by some
of the leading citizens, stating that it was
necessary TO strike terror into the rest
of the band known to exist at this time,
and that immediate action be taken in the
case. A committee of twenty-four were Sc
lected to try the case. The prisoners were
brought before the committee and confessed
the crime. A more cool and premeditated
robbery could not have been planned. At
two ?. NJ. the committee reported that both
men were guilty, and they were sentenced
to be hung at half past four P. NJ.
Over three Thousand people congregated
at the haDgmans tree. At five O'Clock the
wagon upon which the prisoners stood, with
ropes around their necks, was driven from
under them, and frontier justice was salts
fed. The citizens meeting was not vigil
lance committee, but comprised the best
citizens of the country. The whole a flair
was conducted in the most quiet but deter
mined manner, and no one questions the
Justice Of both the trial and the verdict.

James H. lngraham and Committee of Arrange
SIK-I have the honor to acknowledge
tine receipt of your communication of the
sixteenth instant. THANK you for the com.
pliment thus done me, and regret that my
duties here will not permit me to avail myself
of your kind invitation to be present on the
occasion you refer to.
The event you propose to celebrate is one
over which you may well rejoice. 1t is the
c,nsummation of one of the grandest events
in the history of the world. In ten years,
four millions of human beings raised from
slavery to enjoy all the immunities of citi-
Zens In ten years great national prob
lem solved, which threatened the destruc-
tion of the government, and the solution of
which has removed from the pathway OF the
South great impediment to her develop
ment and prosperity.
Having now happily secured his freedom,
and all the rights of citizenship, it is the
duty as well as the interest of the colored
man to do that which is one of the chief
obligations of the citizen, tc educate and
provide for himself, and thus aid in the
general prosperity.
To that end, forgetting the hostilities Of
the past, and looking forward only to the
reconciliations of the future, he should
unite in a common endeaver to eradicate
the terrible ravages made by the war, and
to develop the power and prosperity of
system of free labor.
1t is proper that you should exult over
your great victory and deiverance, but let
your exultation be tempered by an appre-
citation of the new responsibilities that now
devolve upon you.
And in the midst of your thanksgiving,
you will not forget him who sounded the
first key note of that victory and that deliv-
erance, and who. just before he filled the
full measure of his devotion to the cause Of
human rights. said: with malice toward
none. with charity for all, with frmness in
the right, as God gives US to see the right,
let US finish the work we are in, to do all
which may achieve and cherish a just and
lasting peace among ourselves" The name
of Abraham Lincoln will live forever fresh
and green in the hearts of the colored people
of America.
Accept my congratulations, and while |
can not be with you in person, believe me
you have my most earnest sympathies.
Very respectfully.

UNITED STATES SENATE CHAMBER,
WASHINGTON, April 25. 1870


S1R-You have my thanks for the invita-
tion to be present at and participate in the
exercises Of the thirtleth instant, and | re-
gret exceedingly that my duties in the
Senate will deprive me of the contemplated
pleasure.
The sdoption of the fifteenth amend
ment" is, next to the abolition of slavery,
the grandest event in American history. 1t
demonstrates the proposition that justice
exists as an active principle among men,
and that in our native land it is at last ac-
knowledged as rule OF action. Although
two centurys and half have been devoted
to wrong and outrage upon portion of our
fellow citizens, for the unmanly reason that
their skins were dark, our people have at
last become conscious of their gross injustice,
and have made noble efforts on behalf ofright.
As Paul shook the viper from his warming
hand, SO have we shaken off the curse of
slavery. Nor have we paused here. We
have incorporated into the organic law OF
the land this last great provision by which
the enfranChised slave is forever recog-
niZed as an equal.
I do not ignore the fact that our recent
war was a potent agency in producing these
results; that by the stern hand of necessity
the slave was first made a soldier and then
a voter. But underlying all. | believe
the great law of justice is made
wrongs are righted. While the nations
perils transformed slaves to soldiers. 1t
was justice that made them the legal peers of
their ancient masters. Nominally the bal
lot and the right to hold office were placed
in the hands of this class, because its repre-
sentatives were the martyrs of Pillow and
the heroes of Hudson and Wagner; but, in
reality, those franchises were awarded by
reason of an awakened consciousness Of
right and duty.
In my name please congratulate the as
sembly upon these sublime results. Say to
your audience that | address them while
sitting by the side of Senator Revels, that
loyal and talented colored man, who to-day
occupies the seat made vacant by the
treason of Jefferson Davis:
a. "And still the world goes round and round
And the genial seasons run,
And ever the right comes uppermost.
And ever is Justice done.'
am, sir, very respectfully, your obedient
servant, j. S. HARRIS.

Hon. James II. Ingraham:
DEAR SIR-Yours of the sixteenth instant,
expressing the wish that should be present
on the thirtieth of April, to participate in
the celebration in honor of the adoption
of the fifteenth amendment" has this
moment come to hand.
It would give me great pleasure to take
part in the proceedings on that occasion, but
duties which 1 can not neglect will deny NE
that happiness.
The struggle for the result which has been
attained, commenced i'll good earnest more
than thirty years ago. But slow progress
was made for several years, and even ten
years ago comparatively few people in this
great republic felt willing to move directly
to the principles embodied in the late
amendments to the constitution, ard which
complete in theory the just idea of repub-
ican government.
It has been said by distinguished writer
that bad men assail with far more courage
and vigor, than good men defend good
principles. In most marked manner this
charac teristic of human nature has been
illustrated in the contest through which
the county has passed. While for time
the cause made slow and almost discour.
aging progress, it is matter OF congratula-
ton that in the last decade the issues have
been vigorously and bravely pressed, and
sthat the elimination has been most signal
triumph of principle victory that will
forever mark distinctive era in the history
