A Meeting of the Colored Citizens.

We had intended to make a notice of the
above named meeting, but the following from
the Free Press covers the ground so clearly
that we insert it in lieu of anything that We
might produce =
A meeting of the colored citizens was held
on Wednesday Evening last at the Colored
Baptist Church in Charlestown, to listen to ad-
dresses from Messrs. Andrew Hunter and
William 81. Trayers who had been politely
invited to appear before them for the purpose
of advising them as to their general duties as
citizens There was a large attendance, the
church being well filled by attentive hearers.
The speakers presented their views at length
on the various subjects in which they sup
posed their audience felt and should feel tho
deepest interest. They pointed out carefully
the weighty duties and responsibilities which
have in the last few years been devolved upon
the colored people; exhorted them to prepare
themselves diligently for n intelligent exercise
of their rights and privileges and cautioned
them against the instructions and selfish
counsels of designing men. who would court
them for their power, and after using them
for base and ignoble purposes cast them of as
useless and worthless things.
The attempt which had been made to antag-
onlze Inc races, TO produce feelings of hostility
between them, was strongly and earnestly de-
nounced- IL was shown that such state of
things was both unnatural and wicked that
there was not only no reason for it. but that
on the contrary there were the strongest
motives, on the part of both races, to cultivate
and establish the most amicable relations with
each other These things were demanded by
sound policy and by the best interests of both
parties.
The sound and practical ideas thus candidly
submitted, were received in a spirit of the ut
most kindness, and with evident thankfulness,
and we doubt not that the exceedingly inter-
esting proceedings of the evening will be
productive of great good.
Several of the leading white citizens of the
town were present on the occasion. By re-
quest afew remarks were delivered by Thomas
9. Green and Samuel Ridenour, Esqs., after
the addresses of Messrs. Hunter and Travers
were concluded.

ton of an air line railroad between Chicago and
Pittsburg, passing through Akron and Tiffin,

claims that the opening of this new route will
bring Chicago over one hundred miles nearer
to a seaport than at present, and with the aid
of steamship lines from Baltimore to West
Indian and European ports will give quicker
and cheaper facilities for export than now.

mosities springing out Of the late War, in a
common effort to, preserve our republican in
situations from total destruction, should now.
be broken down. The Conservative branch
of the original Union party, who retain all the
worth, and most of the brains of that party,
now make the overture. Let them not recede
from this position, on their part, and let them
be met in a spirit of cordial union and CO.
operation. By such union there will be.

and unitedas to control her destinies for many
years, and rescue her from the hands of the
odiOus Oligarchy who, relying upon the catch
word of "loyalty," have ruled and disgraced'
her for the last Eve years. The day of the
ProscriptiOnists is about closing. Some of.
them have sinned past repentance and pardon,
and nothing remains for them but that OBJ
security and oblivion from which the confusion
and disqualification incident to the close ofithe
greatest war of modern times alone could
temporarily have rescued them. Let them go
back into the retirement of private life. For
others who have been less conspicuous the
door of return is still open. Let them unite
with the great Conservative Democratioparty
of the State. Let them be ambitious only to
share the honor of wiping off of our statute-
book the proscriptive laws which have SO long
disgraced' it. The negroes of the State are
now voters under the Constitution as claimed
to be amended. Where is the West Vir-
ginian, by whatever party name he may be
called, who will deny the same privilege to
white men !? If such man can now be found
let him be anathemas maranathema. as un-
worthy.th -Eame'of an American citizen.
We call earnestly on the Executive COM
mittes of this county to open the campaign,
and prepare for grand Reunion of all the
Conservative elements in the State.

1NoENDIARIsMs.-On Saturday night last
the place of business of Kerns & Getzenden-

resulted in the destruction of the front of the
building together with the most of the con-

"stretch" given him. We learn that they
are partially insured.

- The Fenian movement has proved
complete failure. Defeated, routed, betrayed,
the deluded followers of o 'Neill are returning
to their homes as rapidly as they can find
means of transportation. They are fierce in
their denunciatiOns of their leaders, and right
fully SO, for more impracticable scheme was
never attempted. The Fenians-the rank
and ile-do not deserve censure. They are
animated by an enthusiastic love for Ireland,
and, taking advantage of this, designing men
have induced them to contribute all the saw
ings of their hard labor towards this enter
prise, under the cry of "Strike for your native
land" The best thing they can do is to cut
loose from these organizations, and hereafter
pursue their regular daily avocations. Fe-
nianism in America does not pay.

A QUESTION IN MANY HoMEs.-The fine
times when we could all live on the fat of the
land have gone by, perhaps never to return.
OF late, the question how to obtain the largest
amount of wholesome, palatable nourishment
at the lowest possible price, has been earnestly
discussed in thousands of American homes.
The introduction of SEA Moss FARINE as
national food staple, solves that problem
From no other article under the sun can the
same amount of delicious fare be obtained for
the same cost. The custards, ChdrIottes, jel-
lies, buildings, &C., made from it are eft for
Juno when she banquets;" and as clarifier
for refining cider and other fermented potables,
it has no equal. The SEA Moss FARINE Co,
who own the patent for the article, have their
centEal.deP0t at So Park Place, New York,
and within twelve months they have estab-
lshed business of immense magnitude and
importance.
