Il. {. WoHTmINGToN, Secretary

From Citizens of jackson and Roane COun-
ties,
Last Tuesday another mass meeting Of
citizens OF Washington district, Jackson
county, was held at kentuck. The follow
ing affidavit was drawn up and signed and
sworn TO before Justice c. l.. Hatcher:
Whereas, certain conflicting resorts
have been published in the papers Of this and
adjoining counties concerning the destitu
ton prevailing in Washington district, Jack
son county, W. Va,
Therefore, we the citizens Of SAID district
have assembled together on this,
the 23d day OF June, lSSj, for the
purpose of ascertaining the truth con.
cerning this destitution. In pursuance OF
this laudable object we do hereby publish to
the world the following atidavits, that the
people in the more favored portions Of our
country whose benevolence the world has
witnessed, may have assurance that any
appropriations sent to US in this hour OF
attictiOn, will not be misapplied. For sup
plies already sent, we return thanks to God,
and pray his blessings on the donors.
This document then proceeded to set
forth the necessities OF the people,
and was signed by forty heads
Of families, and the secretary Of the
meeting said that had sufficient notice been
given, the attendance would have been five
times as large
The following att lavit has been published
by portion ofthe citizens OF Roane county:
"We, the undersigned citizens Of Harper
District, Roane county, ". Va, assembled
Jure lS, 1855, and upon our oaths do testify
that We are in suffering condition, and
have sold all We have to sell to procure bread
Tor Our families, and work to support them
we cannot get. We do further testify that
the statements made BY. y, p. .! Kelley agd'
Squire ElG 80. district, are perfectly false
and untrue. We further assert that 1t will
take 1000 bushels OF grain to supply the
needy people of Harper district till the corn
be raised, as wheat is an entire failure.
Therefore, we pray that this report be pub
lished in tie R0ane county Bulletin
This is signed by thirty four heads Of
families.
The following ex'rsct is taken from
letter from j. NJ. Ray, Esq, Of jackson
county:
81 have been travelling over the destitute
districts, and know whereof speak. la
the beginning, will say that the half has
never been told, for | find the suffering
greater than any Of the published
reports have seen. One family told me
hey had gone without bread four
days, and had dug up their pota'
oes that were planted, out OF which
hey got one meal for the family. Another
man told me that he and his wife had LEFT
the house to keen from hearing the children
cry for bread. The grain in the country is
exhausted or at least the surplus, and hon
est men who are willing to work can not get
bread for work. | find that this calamity
is not confined to the poorer class, but men
heretofore in easy circumstances are now
without the necessaries Of life.

sauIt on the little girl page, Mamie James,
before aJustice oEthe Peace yesterday, there
were so many members of the Legislature
present as to give the gathering the appear

eral Assembly.
Many Witnesses we're called no 'hn l.
ieLSe, - lUGlng several pages aud Ot"sr EN-
ployes Of the House and Representative W..
H. Collins Of Quincy. The little girl Nan
ME James, testified that she was twelve
years of age. and told the story Of the as
sault in childish language, which indicated
that she had been terribly wronged. She
said that James threw her upon sofa
in q committee room, torcibly removed
her clo'hing and violated her
rersOu. When she attempted to make an
oUtcry her mouth was covered by the Rep
rosentatige hand, and her struggles to es
cape were frustrated bv the superior strength
of her asssilant. The witness was very
volu5le and exhibited no emotion or agiJa-
,ion such as might be expected would mark
the recital Of the details of such repulsive
affair by so young a child. The cross-eX-
animation was very searching but failed to
confuse the child

approached her, and, without q mo.
mcmts warning as 20 his intention, drew q
razor and slashed the keen weapon across
the young ladys cheek. cutting frightful
cash about four inches long and clear to
the bone. The girl ran to her mother, who
caught her in her arms, the blood squirting
out in a stream. Thompson followed her,
and, striking the mother o terrible blow in
the eye, knocked her down. He then
dragged the tainting girl into the hall, and.
as she lay upon the floor, he drew the razor
across her throat, making another CHASTITY
wound three inchess long.
The mothers cries of murder brought as
sistance and the villain was overpowered

auce summoned. There are strong hopes
that she will recover. Thompson is twenty
one years Of age and machinist. The
yourg lady is one Of the handsomest girls

had been refused.
