Gen. Forrest.

AZ the recent ratification meeting
at Memphis. Gen. Forrest presided.
On taking his seat, he made the. fol-
lowing brief but very; appropriate re-
marks ~ TrT
I'sMR. PREs1DENr AND GENrLEMEN: :
thank you for the honor conferred
upon me tonight, in selecting me as
your presiding officer. You Will nj
low me TO say that I am far moro ia
miliar with the stern duties of the
soldier than 7 am with the art Of pub-
hcspeaking. It is known to most of
you that my life has been one of nc
ton rather than of words. Nor has
1t been my habit to take any Leading
part in the direction of political and
public affairs. Bnt the occasion Of
this evening is one of no ordinary
importance You have assembled to
express your appreciation or disappro-
bation- OF the principles of public
policy and Constitutional Govern
ment declared in the resolutions and
address set forth to the American
pcopleby the late Philadelphia Con-
vention. If f-:the principles therein
enunciated shall be sustained by the
American people, and particularly by
the majority Of the freemen of the
Northern States, then the States ana
Z the speople of the South will be
speedily restored to civil and consti-
tutional liberty. If Iknow myself,
this is the anxious desire of my heart.
! have carefully, read and considered
the5adaress and the principles Of
public policy and constitutional law
therein contained, and without regard
10 the language in which they stand
expressed. they meet my full, unre-
served and cordial approval. When
4 pledged my word and my honor to
the lost cause of the late Confederacy,
.Isupposed that no one who knew
me ever doubted the honesty and
good faith with which they would be
redeemed; and when now accept the
result of the war rs irrevocable, as I
have accepted them, and pledge my
word and faith to the support Of the
great principles declared to tie world
by the Philadelphia Convention, as l
now do, that vow and that faith shall
be equally constant and unchangn-
able. '
''There is one thing I will say in
regard to the soldiers of the North
and the SoJlth-the men who have
met each other in the stern shock of
battle, and conflict of arms that
tried their courage and their souls
II these grave matters were referred
10 them, these States could be in
stantly restored to their former rel:.
lions. their people to the right of rep
resentation in Congress, and all sec
tions of the Union to quietudc and

Butler after the following maner. Ii
we could, for an instant, believe the
Post serious, we should feel sure it
wanted old Butler arrested for larceny.
There must be quite a number OF
cdpidses for him, both in Norfolk and
New Orleans:
'fGeneral Butler talks of taking ND
arms again; but it would be much
s better if he would go through the
South, in company with other men
OF like opinions with himself, and ad
dress the people in favor of equal
rights and impartial suffrage. We
shall undoubtedly support any move
ment of that kind by General Butler,
and shall insist upon the maintenance
of his right of free speech. We hope
the Southern loyalists will, when they
meet at Philadelphia next week, in
/ yite General Butler and other pronai-
nent Republicans to Stump the
Southern States in their behalf; we
hear that they request the Republi-
can party to hold q grand mass CON
vcntion in some Southern city. That

TAKE TnEE by THE FoRE1ocK.-The
miasma which ge~ ates epidemic fevers
Is now rising in clouds under tho blazing
beams Of the dog day sun. Every living
body, as well as refuse animal and vcgeta-
bic matter, emits unwholesome yapors.
and in crowded cities and the dense assem-
biages which business and pleasure call
together, the elements Of disease are
evolved. The pressure upon every vital
organ Is never 80 great as in the second
and third months Of summer, and common
sense teaches us that these organs REQUIRE
to be reinforced to meet it.
We hold our lives. so to speak, on a
repairing lease, and this is the season when
the process Of dilapidation is most rapid
and repairs are most required. Therefore

ture with that mighty vegetable recupe-
rant, HosTETTER's B1rrEns. He w.o takes

mail, against which epidemic disease will
hurl its poisoned shafts in vain. This is
no gratulsous assertion, but n great 0,edi-
cal fact, attested by twelve years expe-
rlence in every climate Of the haLitable

aRIor AT A CAMP MErTINa.-A
special 1rto the Washington Star,
from Annapolis Junction, August

RIoT At CAMP MEETING
special to the Washington Star,
from Annapolis Junction, August
81, says: IS ;'f
Last night a terrible riot occurred
at the Methodist Episcopal camp
meeting in Shipley,s woods, a few
miles above here, and there is much
excitement In this section Ill conse-
quence. The camp, up to last even
ing, was very orderly, and all seemed
to anticipate a successful close; but
this occurrence has filed all with
sorrow. There are SO many, conflict
ing reports In relation to the origin
of the affair, and as to the number
wounded, that it is next to impossible
to give correct statement. . From
the best accounts it appears that
there was tremendous crowd on the
ground last evening, whites and
blacks, and while the latter were
having meeting in the year of the
stand, some young white men threw
watermelon ,inds in their midst,
which occasioned n row; and some of
the blacks taking the matter in hand,
drove the whites off, several shots
being fred at the time Oil each side.
Tiie excitement occasioned was
Sntense, and in short time numbers
of young white men left the ground
and Joined the others, who had lust
been driven off. This crowd is said
to have numbered several hundred,
and they. q few minutes past twelve,
made charge on the colored portion
OF the camp, when the blacks essayed
to make stand, but were overwhelm-
ed, and the most of them started to
the woods, while others who could
not get away were attacked with
clubs, stones. &C., some of them
being badly bruised Tho tents of
the colored people were set fire to
and destroyed, while the reports of
pistols, and, it is said, in one or two
instances muskets. with tho cries of
the parties, added to the excitement
Ina short time oil was confusion, the
different meetings about the ground
being broken mp, ladies fainting,
screaming, &c. Ayoung man named
Benson, who resides near the camp
ground, anil who had just ex-
perlenced conversion, received q
shot. the ball passing through and
out Of his mouth. He is mortally
wounded, and is now reported to be
dying. Besides those injured on the
ground, it is reported that numbers
OF the blacks were overtaken in the
woods and beaten, and five of them
killed. The ministers and member
ship did everything III their power to
put down the riot. but were unsuc
cessful. Several OF the shots fred
entered the tents of the whites. In
consequence of this affair the usual
closing exercises did not take place.

GUSTAVUS.

August q, looO.
The death of two of our Pioneer citi
zens, Mr.. John Streeter and Miss Policy
Glider, spread some gloom through town;
they have gone full of years and useful
ness, having born the burdens of a new
country. Next the loss of one of our ex-
cellent Ministers, Rev. johnson Wright,
he having accepted a Professorship in a
College IN S. W. Iowa, after seven years
of ardent labor both with hand and head.
The people became much attached to
him, as well as he TO them accordingly
on the oath they made a donation visit
at the house of Alfred Young, for his
benefit, which was really a success
Some from Wayne and other Townships
were present. Though the morning was
wet, the people began to assemble at
IL o'clock, and after hearing short but
appropriate speeches by two or three, and
hearing the beautiful music Of the Gus
tavus Silver Band, at 3 o'clock we were
invited to q table i nthe basement, loaded
with all the bounties that appetite could
desire. After dinner the swing, and mu-
sic by the Band, and a general socia-
BILE occupied an hour or two. In the
evening the clouds cleared away, the
moon came out and we were reinforced
by the younger class, which added much
to the interest of the occasion.
Supper was served at 8 o'clock. After
supper came the general good byes, the
presentations, and the farewell address by
Wright, which was solemn and affect
ing. The young people presented, by
Esq. Gibbs, a beautiful evergreen tree
Though its fruits were green, they were
matured and did honor to the donors.
1t was appraised at near $50. Next a do
nation by the Band, by Rev. N. Young,
of 81, then the general donations amount
ing in all to SlS5,2l. Mr.. Wright gave
US all the thanks that he had and said he
hoped some day to have more to give.
All felt interested and profted, SORROW
ing, most of all, that we should see his
face no more.
1t seems that a great may eggs have
been suffered to spoil this season. 1t is
hoped that the remainder will be careful
ly buried rather than used otherwise.

Anrt-sewer Meeting.

In pursuance of public notice, a NEE ting
was held at Webb's Hall, Aug. 31st. 1866.
On motion of Alex. Mcconnell, Azor Abel,
ESQ, was called to the chair, and q. ].
HYDE, Esq, chosen Secretary. The object
of the. meeting was stated, when Charles
Smith, VIM. o. Forrist, and VIM. Williams
were appointed a committee TO draft resolu-
lions expressive Of the views of the meeting
upon the Sewer question. Said committee
in due time reported the following, which
after due discussion were adopted.
WHEREAS, The Town Council of the In
eorporated village of Warren, has underta-
ken the construction of q system of sewerage
in said village, the expenses of which will
be a grievous burden upon the citizens Of
said village and altogether d~isproporti onate
10 the beneftE to be derived therefrom, and
much greater than should be Levied without
being first submitted to the people. and
WHEREAs, The assessment of taxes for
said purpose as adopted by the Council, is in
our opinion grossly unjust and unequal, and
WHEREAS, The people ought to have some
voice as TO the construction of such extensive
public works, and the raising of such large
sums of money by taxation, and
WHEREAS, The general plan of the con-
struetion of said sewers and their location, Is
in our opinion g mistaken and improper one,
therefore
Resolved, That said Town Council be re-
spectfully requested to suspend all further
proceedings on the construction of said sew
ers. until the question of their construct on
and levying taxes therefor, can be submitted
TO the people, and the general plan thereof
and the basis of assessment of taxes therefor,
be reviewed and modified.
Resogred, That a copy of the proceedings
of this meeting and Of these resolutions be
forthwith presented to said Town Council
with a request for their careful and favora
bic consideration, and that said proceedings
and resolutions be published in our town pa
pers.

suddenly into the river, through the mouth
of the Sewer, always submerged in the water
of the river, at every time of rain will we
trust promote the health and cleanliness of
the town much more than the evaporation

drainage, the opinion of our most eminent
Physicians, to the contrary, notwithstand-
ing.
Objections are made TO the size of some of
the Sewers, as TO that, it is not yet too late,
with a little additional expense) to remedy
the evil if any exist, and good counsel will
be gratefully received by the Sewer Commit
tee at all times, on that point as well as all
others touching the interests of the town.
The work on the Sewers commenced is
progressing very satisfactorily and gives
every assurance that it will be lone within
the estimated cost if suffered to go on with
