THE CAMPAIGN.


We are DESTROYS that every man in Har-
deman county. should have paper to read
during the present political campaign, and
now make the following liberal offer and
hope that the public will respond We
win send the Bolivar Bulletin to one ad-
dress for three months for the sum of one
dollar, and i'll orders for clubs at the fol-
lowing rates: Five copies, three months,
for 81; ten copies, same time, for So !;
twenty COPIES same time, for $I2 1t is
useless to add that the present is fraught
with more than uncommon interest to all
men who believe in a true republican form
of government, for the sad condition into
which we have been driven by pretended
loyalists bears its impress upon the field,
the store; the workshop, in fact everything
throughout the entire country, but more es-
pecially within the borders of our own
State. do we see the inroads which fanatl-
cism has made upon liberty and independ-
ence. We ask our friends to aid us IN this
work, and it shall be our purpose to print
and publish for the benefit Of the masses, for
the triumph of Conservatism, all that is pos
sible for weekly paper to contain Send
in the names as early as possible, as it is
desirable that the campaign clubs should
commence on the first Saturday in June
Payment must be made in advance.

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN

1t is our positive knowledge that certain
arties who do not fellowship with the great
Conservative party of this State, are striving,
by .enuendoes and assertions, to make it APP
pear that they cannot, without exceeding
danger to their life and limbs, publically
vindicate their characters before the people
of Hardemau. The whole thing is a libIe
upon our people, and there does not exist
the least reason why any man, rich or poor,
military or civil, radical or what not cannot
with impunity come among our people and
say-what he has to say. Mobs and lynch
law are utterly unknown here, and he who
intimates that it would be unsafe for any
man, be he who it may, to dwell in, or cross
and recross Hardeman county at will, init
mates whathe must know to be void of truth.
If there are any who desire to come here,
we say, in behalf Of this community, let
them come, for we know that they will be
protected There is no lawlessness here,
and it is folly for persons to strive to make
it appear Otherwise

and perfect fusilade of pistols opened on
the crowd occupying the platform a negro

was dragged by his friends out of the range
of the fire, and got away unframed The
firing by this time was directed right and
left among the crowd in the street, which
was flying in all directions Several white
men, who had taken no part in the attack
were shot. Mr.. Goldsmith was killed, and
Ledberry, late Chief of Police, was shot in
the forehead. A policeman was shot in the

Kelly, the Pennsylvania Congressman,

and who is making a political tour of the
late rebelllous States5 so inflamed the pas
sions of portion of the citizens. of Mobile,
Ala, by his ill-timed remarks while making
a speech to them on the 18th inst, that an
effort was made to force him from the stand.
During the melee, many shots were fred,
several persons killed and many wounded
Kelly was dragged from the stand and res
cued by his friends. This is to be deplored,
and will bring down additional hardships
upon our entire people. Let US shun vio-

Release Of Jefferson Davis.
u. Lifs and Liberlr iIlum,


The dim eyed tenant Of the dungeons gloom
The news that flashed over the wires on
last Monday caused many heart to beat
with JOY, for it announced that the last sin
gle captive to millions in war had at last
been allowed the privilege of breathing the
pure air that God gave to man. Though
Jefferson Davis walks his native soil with a
bond of $4,000 upon his shoulders, he is
comparatively free. No longer do his enc
mics charge him with the henious crime of
assassination; no longer does the iron chain
clank beneath his feeble tread no longer
does he feed upon the tainted atmosphere of
q modern La Tour de Nesle." for the iron
heart of revenge has been compelled to yield
by the force of popular sentiment He may
or may rot be tried upon a charge of trea-
son, but we are strongly of the opinion that
he was required to give bail simply because
he has not suffered enough to satisfy the
capaciOus nav of radical tyranny. Mr..
Davis occupies rooms at the .Spottswood
House, Richmond, Va He is visited daily
by large numbers of old friends

REGIsTRATIoN.-Up to this late hour the
Office of registration has not been re-opened
in this county. OF what are the people of
Hardeman county guilty that they should be
more cruelty dealt with than all others ?
What law have they disregarded? Why
does the Governor of this State cIeRch his
official hand so tightly about our necks q?
Has he cause for so doing IF so. that
cause has never been made known, and
surely it is his Office to tell US wherein we
have erred. Aside from this, we have been
told by those who ought to know, that the
Office would be opened in short time. but
this Is only hearsay. Justice and our rights
under the franchise law ITSELF demand that
the Office of registration should be opened at
once. The Governor has no right to tell the
true Union men of this county that thew
shall not vote, neither has he the right. under
the law, to withhold his appointing power.
The law under which he is acting only gives
HIM the power to order a new registration
in case of fraud Granted that fraud has
been practiced in this county, the Office has
been closed for weeks, and the Governor has
already overstepped the bounds of duty, for
he should have recommissioned his former
appointee or chosen some other person for
the position weeks ago. Our people do not
expect favors at the hands of those now in
power, but they are entitled to their rights
under the laws The present Governor
gains no strength by indicting hardships
upon the people without cause.
