never heard him equal to what he was on

ter We shall not attempt an outline of
The speech, as we haveythe promise of a
copy for publication, which we shall take
the earliest opportunity of laying before
our readers.
After Gov. Brown had concluded, Gen.
ZoLLIcoFFER concluded the entertainment
by a short, powerful and comprehensive
reference to the aims and measures of
Americanism. The people listened with
marked interest, and the fact was apparent,
that they feel deep and abiding interest
in the all-important issues which are now
before them. They have been long enough
humbugged by the negro question,-they
are now looking to the practical questions,
which directly affect us as a State and as in
dividuals.

my We have been informed by an 4

nay We have been informed by an at
taeAs of the Penitentiary, that the fact
stated by Mr.. Bentley, and reported by
our correspondent, at Lawrenceburg, to
the effect that, a man by the name OF
Spears, sent from Lawrence county, had
been pardoned by Gov johnson, but still
remained in prison, is a mistake. The last
report shows, as Mr.. Bentley stated, that
Spears, was pardoned; but this was a mis-
take made by the clerk, in making up the
report. Spears, although, as is alleged, an
idiot, has never been pardoned by the Gov
ernOr.
