THE EVENING STAR. LOCAL NEWS. THE COLORED PsoPLe oF THE FouRTH WARD AND THE Deayt.—On Saturday night the coleyed le of the Fourth ward held a meeting at the fev. Father Bowiand’s church, corner of Land 4th streets, for the purpose of increasing the fund to be expended in relieving the ward from the draft. The meeting was not so large as the former one, but it was quite spirited, and the choir attached to the church enlivened the occasion with some excellent singing. Mr. Wm. Slaae presided, while Mr. Archibald Lewis acted as 3 Slade announced the object of the meet- id stated that while he was in favor of olored men enlisting and fighting the bat- ‘tun tles of their country, he wished them to have 3 pride for the city and their ward. So far the venth ward was the banner ward, and he was fearful would continue to be, notwith- standing the Fourth ward was larger in wealth and resources. The speaker then urged the colored people to contribute to the cause, and remarked that at their former meeting they had omitted to invite God’s blessing upon their de- liberation, and as he was in iavor of asking God for everything, he would call upon Rev. Father Bowland to offer up 4 prayer to the throne of oa Rey. Father Bowland responded, and offered up afervent and appropria’e prayer, calling upon God to bless their deliberations and instill their hearts with heavenly wisdom. After the singing of an anthem by the choir, Rev. Father Bowland addressed the meeting, . Rd hoped individuais would not stand back \ ecanse they did not fear the draft. Although nold man if, he would contribute, and * eoften feltas if he would place his musket on his shoulder and goto the wars. He knew the time when colored people would not dare hold war meetings, but there had been a great change, and the colored people were free from their bondage, and they should now prove themselves worthy of the privileges they en- joyed. God had certainly had a hand in free- img the colored People, for it had often been said that the colored race was God-forsaken, but now was the time to show the white peo- ple that the colored people were an intelligent a: bor willing to respond when their coun- ci 3 ’ Mr. Freeman was under the opinion that they had assembled to raise money and not to talk, and in order to make a favorable appear- ance, all ehould come forward and contribute, to retain the good credit of the colored people of the Fourth Ward. Several parties present came forward and contribute 3 and after they had taken their seats, the Chair = Slade) introduced a Mr. Finney, ( white,) of Ohio, who, remarked Mr.S., had battled against slavery all his life,and had almost passed through brimstone for the col- ored race. Mr. Finney then proceeded to deliver a lengthy speech, setting forth the causes of the ‘war, which (he contended) had produced ben- eficial results. The speaker concluded by re- marking that if there were any present who desired to enlist, they could rest assured they ‘Would not have more than six weeks to serve, as a few more successes as those we have achieved lately will close up the war; but if they did not wish to enlist they must act promptly, as the draft would probably take place on Tuesday. Mr. Waters was in Government employ, and had to wait Uncle Sam’s pleasure, but he had a@ little left, and was willing to give his share. The wises of to-day have flashed with the tidings of another victory, and the rebellion is a ae at, the Government wants a mén, id they must have them. Those who desire to avoid the draft must not stand back. Some of'tHe young men will sit back with fifty cents’ fi their pockets for the purpose of going on aspxee; but if the draft takes place the only bd nh will go on will be to Petersburg, Fredericksburg, or some other kind of “burg,” with guns on theirshoul- ders. {Laughter.) Other parties came forward and offered their contributions while the baskets were passed around among thefemales. In this way acon- siderable sum was realized. Mr: Freeman reported that he had collected @i#. The other collectors were absent, and ne returns weremade. The total amount in hand is a little over $300.
