our townsman Wythe Douglas Esq but a no less distinguished man than either of them the notorious Frederick Douglas of New York State the Negro Orator and Editor of an abolition News Paper in the western part of the Empire State His theme was the wrongs of his race He handled his subject in a style which would have been creditable to many very many of our white orators He is without doubt an extraordinary man He is highly eloquent has unlimited command of his voice which breathes forth betimes the sweetest accents and again swells to Stentorian volume and his gestures are graceful on the whole we do not hesitate about pronouncing him a first class speaker We can easily excuse him a black man for advocating the doctrine of immediate and unconditional emancipation but if such a thing were practicable it would be altogether inexpedient If slavery was to become rooted out aud the blacks remain among the whites we honestly believe a war of extermination would soon be the re suit The history of the Red Man" is sufficient to prove beyond cavil that two distinct races cannot dwell as equals in harmony upon the same soil If slavery is to be abolished we must at the same time provide

the spring materials for new brick buildings in course of erection Nor does it appear likely to cease from the indications we have until cold weather shall put a stop to the busy hum of the mason hammer and carpenter saw The following persons have either begun to build or will have Brick houses erected this fall and winter ready for occupation next April Frederick Hcnningcr one George

named gentleman is also about putting up a substantial brick stable on the lot in the rear of the one on which their store is erected These houses with those already builti since last spring will accommodate from 40 to 50 families Our own people hereafter will not be so likely to be turned out of their houses by wealthy persons from other counties who desire a home with us and can only get it by purchasing and thus putting our own citizens to shift for a dwelling as best they can These signs of the prosperity of Chambersburg are highly gratifying and are a sure presage of future greatness
