We are not in the least infatuated
with Senator ingalls,, but we must adj
NIT that we agree with most that he
said in his recent speech in the senate,
on the pension bill. If men who felt
AS he seems to feel, had been in charge
of affairs at the close of the war and
subsequently. there would not now be a
lot of ex-confederates in the councils of
the nation to sit in judgement upon the

DOings of a week in the Great
Western Metropolis.
Served up for the EdificatiOn of
our Readers.

An immense crowd of Indignant
Colored people crowded into Bethesda
Baptist church, Tuesday night, to de.
nounce the latter portion Of the verdict
of the coroner's jury in the Zephyr
Davis case, which was as follows: 1
And we further find that the system
pursued by said Green Bros. Of employ:
ing negroes and whites, male and
female promiscuously, is against the
public morals, and should be stopped
John. G.. Jones was elected chair
man and A. T. Hall, secretary. After
prayer by Rev. Jordan Chavis, Chair.
man Jones opened proceeding by saying
that the meeting was called to express
disapproval of that portion of the cor
oner's verdict which raised question
of color. The verdict was uncalled for
either in law or reason. He hoped that
unless Coroner Hoertz, Deputy Kent
and the jury apologized, they would be
tarred and feathered.
DR.. I. H. Magee, being called for,
said that SO far as Deputy Coroner Kent
was concerned he would handle him
without gloves. Recounting the facts OF
the murder, he said that all good citi-
zens condemned the crime. Among
Colored people there was universe
regret that the crime was committed by
Colored man. He deplored what had
been said by Chairman Jones concern
ing tarring and feathering the jury and
coroner. The Colored people with one
accord extended their heartfelt sympa-
thy to the bereaved parents OF the
murdered girl. The purpose of this
meeting was to uphold law and order
and equal rights.
Speeches were also made by Lawyer
Morris, F. L. McGhee Esq, Morris
Brown, S. L. Williams, L. G. Wheeler,
Frank B. Warning, Robt. Mitchell and
Hannibal Carter.
The following resolutions were unani-
mously adopted:
Resolved, That Deputy Coroner
Kent, under whose charge the verdict
was rendered, and Coroner Hertz, who
SO prostitutes his Office as to give sane
ton to such verdict, have both shown
themselves to be bitter enemies of the
Colored race, and unworthy of our suf-
frages in the future.
Resolved, That Coroner Hertz be
requested to discharge Kent and then
resign himself.
Resolved. That we, the Colored
citizens of Chicago in mass-meeting
assembled, hereby denounce this
gratuitous insult offered to the Colo red
people as vicious, slanderous, and
wholly unwarranted attack upon a law
abiding class of citizens"
The meeting was very orderly one,
nearly half present were ladies.
