rINCnEAcK INDIGNATION A LARGELY
attended meeting of colorel citizens, in
Washington, Monday night, passed Il series
of resolutions declaring. among other
things, that the Senate, in rcfusin. to seat
Pinchback. professedly on technical
grounds, did an unjust act. affecting the
colored race, ignored the rights OF a SOW
ereiyn State, bowed to caste. and aided
prescription, rebellion and anarchy. The
resolutions also condemn Senators FL
muns!s and Paddock for voting against
Pinchback. and eulogizc Senator Morton.
whose course, they say, make him fitting
person for any position in which law and
justice may be cIuitably administered and
defended by an honest and rcsolu,e per
son. These resolutions were supported bv
Frederick Douglass, Geo. L. Downing and
others. Hnd unanimously adopted. al
procession then formed and proceeded to
the Ebbitt House, where Senator Morton
was serenaded.
