Cot BLAcK.-There was grand Democratic mass
meeting at New Lisbon, Ohio, on Monday last, al

Sam Black, tavorte and eloquent orator from
the old keystone State was introduced 10 the audi

The infamous order-his eloquent appeals in behalf

MISSISSIPPL
The gallant Democracy Of Mississippi are do
ing their work nobly. Messrs. Melville,
Wright, Bennett, Barksdale, Qutman, and Nc
Rae, are laboring like faithful servants in the
Democratic vineyard. As sample OF the spirit
prevailing and the energy with which the CON
test is being carried on we copy the following
from the .Hississippian of the oath OF August
''There was gathering Of from SEQ to 1000
on the occasion of Democratic barbecue and
mass meeting. The Know Nothings were IN
vitpd TO participate in the discussion, and Messrs
A. r.. Johnston and G. l.. Potter appeared as
the forlorn defenders of their cause. The De-
mocrats were represented by the Hons A. U.
Brown and Wiley P. Harris. Several OF our
citizens went down to attend the discussion, and
we speak their unanimous opinion IN saying that
the Democratic victory was complete and over
whelming Brown led the charge with an ar
raw of eloquence, logic and sound Democratic
truth: while Harris welded the battle axe OF
argument, wit and sarcasm, with merCleSS ell
feet. against the disconSolate and crest-iaien
champions of Know-Nothing Whlggery. Ma
nv accessions were made 10 the Democratic
cause and the banner OF Sam went down IN
the dust amid the shouts OF the multitude"
Cen Miles, OF Mississippi, distinguished
Wing. in a late speech at Jackson, said
ssFrllow-c:tizenS, expect to be IN New Or

the morning of the first day ! intend to take
the cars at eight O'Clock, aud travel eighty-tour

IL urge nv old Wing friends to follow my eX-
annie for if Know-Nothingism succeed, there
will be an end TO our republican form OF gov
ernment-it will be annihIlated."
