_ OBITUARY.
FRIBLEY—On the 20th of February, A. D,
1864,; in the 29th year of his age, at Olustee, Florida,
in battle, while leadinghis command, Col. Charles
"W. Fribley, of the Bth U. S. Colored troops.
Boro and educated in Pennsylvania, he entered
gie 84th Regiment, Pennsylvania Volunteers, as a
Sergeant, speedily rose to a Lieutenancy, was
made Adjntant to Col. Bowman, and subsequently
his Assistant Adjutant General, when in command
of the 2d Brigade of the 3d Division of the 3d Corps.
With great administrative capacity, he was no
less conspicuous for his conrage; and distinguished
himself at the second battle of Bull Run, at Fred
ericksburg and Chaccellorville. Subsequently de
siring to fcervein the coloredregiments, he received
permission to appear before the Examining Board,
where he displayed so much merit and proficiency
that he was at once recommended for a Colonelcy,
a. grade for above his expectations, and was ap
pointed to the command of the Bth Regiment U. S.
colored troops, then forming in this State. In the
organization, instruction and discipline of this
regiment he exhibited the same rare qualities which
iiad gained him such rapid promotion, and it may
be, in truth, affirmed that few regiments, in any
branch of our military service, have gore into the
field more thoroughly trained and fitted for the du
ties of the soldier.
All accounts represent Col. Fribley and his brave
soldiers as having exhibited high courage and dis--
cipline in the battle in which he and so many of
them fell.
It is known that in seeking a command of colored
troopß, he was actuated by the desire of aiding in
roe emancipation ol an oppressed race, and of
fighting the battles ol Freedom, as well as of Con
stitutional Government. Hisbloodhasbeen poured
<>ut, with that of his black compatriots, upon a re
bellious soil. They rest together, in a common
■£ nd when, hereafter, a grateful Nation
shall gather the commingled dust of these her
brave defenders, no name shall be more honored
than that of the. gallant young soldier who be
lieved that the cause of his country was the cause
Of Human Rights.
Resolved, That the foregoing Obituary of the late
Colonel CHARLES W. FRIBLEY, be inscribed
upon the minutes of the Supervisory Committee for
colored enlistments, be published in such of the
newspapers in this city and Lycoming county,
Fa., as the Chairman shall designate: and be
furnished to the Colonel Commanding at Camp
■William Fenn, wiih a request that it be read to the
colored regiments now in camp.
Resolved , That copies of these proceedings be
transmitted to the wife and parents of the late Col.
Fribley, as an expression of the heartfelt sympathy
of the members of this Committee with them, in
their bereavement.

Caldwell and George H. Stuart, Esq. The latter
read a letter from a prominent Major-General in

iu the hands of the delegates who were willing to
go and labor in the army for nothing.

The Abch On Saturday evening probably! the
largest bonse of the season attended the perform
ance of three characteristic plays by Mr. and Mrs.
Barney Williams at the Arch, and a more enjoya
ble entertainment has eeldom been given in this
city. Mr. Williams as Con O’Oarolan and as
Barney, was exquisitely fanny, and.
his humor kept everybody either laughing or
eagerly looking ont for ••hits.” Mrs. Williams
enacted Moleshee, and also gave half a dozen per
sonations in the farce of “Law for Ladles.” Her
qnlckness and versatility are truly maxvellons and
excited the unbounded admiration of the entire
audience, which occupied not only every seat, but
alsoall the standing jroom, evsn to the aisles. To
night's hill comprises “All Hallow E’en” and
“Latest frofa New York,” In both) of which
Mr. and Mrs. W. appear. The closing piece is
1 ‘The Good for Nothing. ’'
The Walnut.—We announce for this evening
at the Walnut “The Dead Heart,” with Edwin.
Adame as Bobert Landry. No actor has yet
played the hero of this thrilling French tragedy as
ably as Mr. Adams has given it, and it has never
failed to fill the theatre each night it has been
given. He will be fairly supported by the com- .
pany. • •
