COi. C.. +, Crittenden.

This gentleman, so well aud SO favor
able known throughout; the State Of Vir-
siuia, is candidate for reelection to
the position of Sergeant-at. Arms for, the
House OF Delegates.
Col. Crittenden, although quite u
young man at the breaking out of the
late war, soon rose to position, and be-
came distinguished officer in The Con-
federate service. He is man of indomi-
table energy aud will, of fue personal
appearance, Of popular manners, and We
think it very questionable, whether Under
any circumstances. the whole Common
wealth could furnish another person as
we'll suited in ali respects. to discharge
the duties of the position 70 which be as
pires. That Col. CRIrTENDEN will be
re- elected, We do not en- tcrtain doubt
aud We feel equally well assured that L l.
act of the Legislature, of SINH ar grade,
will give more general and cordial salts
faction to the public. Faithful and at.eu-
tive to his duties, always at his post, Col.
CRlrrENDEN, as the Sergeant-at- Arms for
the last House OF Delegates, achieved a
reputation as wide as the boundaries OF
the State, and of which he and his friends
may justly feel proud. -,.
II is hardly to be presumed that such
an officer will, be removed, and an ,ther,
who, perhaps has never been %tried, bc
substituted in his stead.
In the late exciting politica campaign
in our State, Col. CRIlTENrEN. as he
always has been, was uncompromisiugly
Conservative, aud struck some heavy
blows for our party.-P. Cmpeper

~ Mixed schools an the Result,


Mixed schools and the Result.
In Perry and other Townships in this
(FrankliD county the parents of negro
children, although provided with separ.
ate schools, are determined to f,rce them
into schools set apart.for whites
The feeling against mixed schools 10 all
parts of the country is great and. strange
10 say. it is even more luiense among the
better class of Republicans than Demo-
Gratis In Perry township this Is par
ricularly the case The township Repub-
lican, and so are the school directors, and
hence the Democrats held off aud let the
Repuo licans settle it among themselves.
An indignation meeting has lready
been held to protest against the destrdc-
ton Ct schools by mixing the blacks aud
white, and to employ counsel. One OF
the Republican leaders in that township
MIR. Jones, a gentleman of considers
BILE inte lligence and much wealth-sub-
scribed $500 TO prevent the sactilege.
The negro race, and their white brethren
who think the negro the superior race,
also have raised the sinews ofw;r. They
too are indignant, for under the ffteeuth
amendment they claim To at all distinction
on account of color was done away, and
that the knklux law of the last Congress
viii be used to enforce their rights. They
claim that they have been instructed by
their counsel as we'll as by a leading
statesman-supposed to be Mr.. Shellabar-
ger-that If other means fl franklin
county will have test of marti | law, un-
der proclamation from Presid ent Grant,
which will not only rightall their wrongs,
but will punish the kuklux kiar, who
oppose them. These threats from the
negro leaders, with their white aiders
and aoet,ers. have produced an intense
feeling, aud threats are openly made BY
Republicans that il Grant does interfere
he will lose every white mans vote in
Perry township. if not in the county.
If the negro children are admitted to
the schools set apart for the white children
it will break up the white schools. for a
very large rnajority-nine L Dths at least
of the white children will be with
drawn. Even in Columbus, where they
have the finest negro.school building 10
Ohio, more tuan ample for all their
wants and easy of accessible feeling a.
mobg the negro population because they
canuot send their children to the white
schools is openly expressed, and they
look forward to the time as not far distant
when Republican Legislature will give
them the right to mix in schools as the
fifteenth amend meDt gives them the right
of equality with .he whites at the polls

dispute Messengers assertion that "true

They propose to rcnominate President

struggle betv cen that,party and the part
of the Republican party who hold that
the success of their platform is not wrap
ped up in one man, and who boldly pro-
pose to nominate new candidate. Again
the straight-out Democrats are to select

There was meeting of the Board OF
Directors in Charlestown yesterday to

counties OF Jefferson and Clarke.
We will further state. on the authority
of one of the D irectors who has just re-
turned from Philadelphia. that the road
will be built beyond a doubt. The trou,

BY largo number o landhoders in the
