At q meeting Of the First Congregational

tion of Rev. Edward A. Horton. the follow.
ing resolution was unanimously adopted:
Resolred, That while We regret that a
seeming necessity exists for relief from
excessive labor and severe strain, which
have induced our pastor, Rev. Edward A.
Horton, 20 resign his charge after pastor
ate, pleasant and successful, almost beyond
precedent of nearly seven years duration,
We cheerfully acquiesce in his judgment
that the time has arrived when duty and
the best interests Of all concerned demand
the change, and in accordance with his re-
quest accept his resignation, to take place
on the first of October next, and release
him ae that time, it being tho end Of his
full seven years of service; and that, in
doing so. We desire to express our grateful
acknowledgements to him for the ability,
self-sacrifcing devotion, and Christian fidei-
ity with which he has performed the many
and burdensome duties of his sacred office.
and for his uniform kindness, constant
cheerfulness, and ready sympathy with all
his people, both in Joy aud sorrow. and our
continued love and best wishes for his sue
cess AID happiness in tho future.

The Biiliayd C0neesS.

On the ninth day of next month at the
Academy Of Music, Mr.. Frank Maggioli
will endeavos to wrest from Mr.. Henry
Miller the championship badge of the
Northwest and South. In practice games
during the past week Maggoli has made
good play. His average has ranged from
six to eleven and a half. Miller has been
slower in play but shows sure points. He
rarely takes the cue without scoring ten or
twelve points. Mr.. Maggioli will un-
doubtedly scorc large breaks. 1t is as
serted that he has made run of l27 points.
The averages made during the past week
indicate that Maggioli is prime favorite.
But it should be borne in mind that
practice games ars delusive and often
ensnaring. Mr.. Maggioli is good at billiards
undoubtedly; he nurses tae balls we'll and
displays brilliant play. Mr.. Miller is sure
and safe. He is reliable. and those who
stake their money on tho chances of the
worries, bank upon Miller as safe guard.

longing to the State. The stock of the COM
pany is owned and controlled by residents

of ultimate success. IL is expected that

sEILA MARTINS ADDRESS IN CINCINNATI
yINDICArEs GOVERNOR KELLOGG
What BE Has Done for the Colored
People.


CINCINNATI, Au gust :, 1875.
The convention Of colored newspaper
men which recently assembled here has
left very favorable impression upon
the community, and the Rev. j.
Sella Martin, Of Louisiana, has been
twice invited to address popular audiences.
Last evening he spoke to an assembly
largely composed of white people, on "The
Friends of the Union" The masterly effort
made by him is the subject of general and
enthusiastic commendation on the part of
Republicans. His treatment of the Louisi-
ana question was bold, original and elo-
quent in the highest degree. On this divi-
sion of his subject he said:
1t is often sa;d that the Republican party
are tired OF the Louisiana question. II this
be so, there is no hope for the Republican
party anywhere. North or South. To be
tired Of the Louisiana question is TO be tired
of reconstruction and Of all the bene6cent
measures involved in it. What is the Lou.
isiaDa question! 1t is a natural Outgrowth
OF Republican ascendency in the South
There i9 but one essential element in il, and
that is the vindieation Of the negroes right
to vote.
Referring to maintenance Of the kellogg
government, Mr.. Martin said:
Governor Kellogg has not only made q
good Governor for the State at large. he
also made good Governor for the negroes.
He has protected their persons as far as
possible, fostered their interests, recognized
their ability, and. what is as good as all this,
he has brought about better feeling be.
tween the races than exists nywhere in tho
South.
Governor Kellogg deserves the more
crodit for this, inasmuch as the Confederates
intended to make Louisiana the initial
point Of onslaught against the negroes OF
the South, and he has caused their failure.
The White Leagues were born in Louisiana,
and mad they met q foe less willy than
Governor Kellogg; had the colored people
found less of a friend in him, had .judicious.
ness and courage been less mingled in the
man, the White Leagues would have tri-
umphed; the negro would have, politically,
gone under, and Mississippi would soon
have followed the calamitous example of
Louisiana.
Mr.. Martin has been invited to make some
addresses during our campaign. 3.

A Speech from Hon. o. p. M0rtob.
URBANA, O., August 7.-Governor Morton
of Indiana, after speaking in eupport of the

said: had something to do with the prepa-
ration OF the bill voted for it in good faith
and intend to stand by it until experiences
has demonstrated that it is impracticable.
or needs amendments. Its feature fixing a
day for resumption and providing for it,
l had proposed to the Senate six wears
before. and whether the time fxed
is q proper one or not, should have pre-
ferred it q year or two later. 1t is the
method by which believe specie payments
can and will be reached. It establishes the
policy of free banking, the slow, gradual,
but certain return to specie payments, and
no contraction, or expansion of the cur
rency until then. He then addressed his
remarks to the Democratic platform of
Ohio, and combatted the greenback theory,
and claimed that the Democrats had always
been enemies of greenbacks. He said:
This whole scheme of q further issue
OF greenbacks in lieu of national

the first place to effect tho destruction of
