II rr Staub. Springfield and Xenia,
Ohio, are the bright iulcllecluul spots
In that Commonwealth, if Abolition
doctors tell the truth. The former,
with a population of 12,052, contains
1,207 negroes, w hile the latter has u
population of 0,377, of whom 1.G00
uro "colored persons," which is Web

The Colors. The census report
shows Unit tho borough of Columbia,
Lancaster county, has u population olJ
0,011, of whom 5o7 are negroes, while
Allcntown, Lehigh touniy, with a
population of 13,884, has but four ne
groes. Our State capital, Harrishurg.
with a population of 23,103, has 2,
27 negroes. Columbia and Harris

and Ciii'bondulc tho ' whitest. The

Wny the Distinction ? A bill h:t!i
passed both branches of tho Legisla

acts providing for tho collection Of a

city is exempted why uro not the
counties exempted, also f Tho militia
fine is more Irouhlcsomo lo collect
thun any other tux imposed, and
ought toXo repculcd throughout the

of Philadelphia is a fraud.
Go Aiikad! The people of Illinois
