vcution assembled , (1o hereby adopt the
following resolutions as expressive of
thou views and sentiments with refer-
rence to the questions herein treated :
Be it
Ilcsolrcd , That we regard the late call
for a national convention of ' colored delegates -
egates at the city of Louisville , to devise
ways and means by which the wrongs under -
der which we sufcr stay be righted , as a
wise and timely stop , undertaken for the
accomplislunelt of a grand and noble pur-
pose.
pose.Itcsolecd , That tvo regard with much
satisfaction Clio unmistakable evidence
unhitch betokens a general awakening of
the colored 1)001)10 of this country to an
appreciation of the necessity of conceii-
tratmg their power , and acting in concert ,
for the general elevation of their mmuter-
nil , mood amid social status.
JiCSOucl , That whilowechoorfullyac-
cord the republican party the honor and
h ) ti3u of hating stood alone in
claunpioniug ' the cause of the
slaves during the bloody conflict
between the cohorts of treason and du-
feuders of the republic ; while we profess
the highest appreciation of its services to
us in haver' ) aced in our hianls that
0
cmbleut of sovereign citizenship , the ballot -
lot , and thud hardly less estimable benefit
of having opened the avenues of equal
education for out' children with those of
other classes , yet we declare that injustice -
tice is being purpotratcd upon tie in tare
iOue party of the country by this party ,
in the matter of its flagrant discrimiua-
tinm ngaimist us in respect to according
its proper representation in political pl-
Sitions , elecitvo 311(1 appointive ,

tuiuimg time uuuity and future usefulness of

eboundonduty of its prtriotie mombur-
ship to secure to each elenent thereof ,
so far as it can ho done , a fair proportion
of recognition through qualified persons
of the respective constituencies of said
party.
Itcsolvcd , That we believe any systoui
of school governunelt which 'practically
teaches the doctrine that , because a eor-
tafn class of inhabitants differ in cont-
pl3xion fromn anotluer certain class , the
first are rontle'e(1 unfit to ho oniployed as
instructors in the schools , is a syaten
which tends to the increase and perpotu
alien of race prejudice ,
RCSOlrcrl ; That we 1eliOve , such a mode
of goverment should be adopted in the
schools of this conunutity a1 will offer
opportunities for the ndvaneenont of
qumllfted colored persons to positiols ) as

Geneva Rovfow ,
This week we incidentally discovered
another brilliant (1) ( ) meumnelt of ocon-
o ly enacted by our hate legislature. We
refer to the now hits' which relil11rce
nicety days to elapse after a county
warrant is issued before it can be
paid. This will be a flue arramge-
mont for the farmers tvhio are brought
in to servo the cburL They can wait
three Months for their pay , or turn it
over to the ghylocks , With this mw no
matter low ntucl uconoy clay be out held
warrants will never be at par. 11'hnt a
fine thing for money loaners and scalp.
ers. Always a safe investment for their
money. It will cost the county 15 to 20
cant more that : if warrants were cash ,
but thou the tax payers can make up
the dileronco and also sell their 1var-
rants at a liberal discount. This law is
also a grand thing for county treasurers
tvhlo arc inclined to speculate. They will
have three mionthls teen notice of all
niOIi0 8 that will be required of thou ,
and can turn many a dolhtr with the
people's money. WC should be at mu loss
to know how the legislature could naku a
