WOOSTER ONO, July 9TH, 1867.
Now. that the campaign is fairly open and
the race begun, it may not be uninteresting
to your numerous readers who have not
the good fortune to reside in any of the
tBack boner counties, to hear a word from
eOld Wayne.n Our farmers through this
county are now busy securing, in good
order, the heaviest hay crop that we have
had for many years, while. our wheat in
GOLDEN abundance is already bowing its
earnest Invitations to the CLEANER, promis-
ing. him a full granary and fine grain.
Much of the wheat through this section
will, God giving us favorable weather, be
harvested within the next eight days. We
are all busy here just now, working cheer

old, fashioned harvest home,n the evil
dences springing up all over the
country of Be. az determination 81 on
the part Of the people to shake
off the incubus OF, an untaxed bond monop-
oily, the fastly approaching time when
those horrid, ruthless wretches who are
now, like an overgrown wen, full of puss,
fair bosom of the body polite, shall, under
the operation of the white mans ballot,
be removed and buried with such disin-
fectants as will forever render them pow
less to further mar the beauty of our re-
publican Government, we are, l repeat,
working cheerily, and will, as October APP
proaches, be found fully equipped and we'll
in the trout on the home stretch. What a
pity it is that the Niger nag should have
thrown enc (and the best one) of its riders
at the very start. The grooms, 1t would
seem, did not know how to saddle the Mus

I enclose you one hundred and ten, dol
lars for the WEEKLY OHIO STATESMAN, with
a list of subscribers and the Postoffices
This is only the first instalment. You will
receive another in few days. Be assured
that Old Wayne will be always ready, as
she always desires to patronize soundly
Democratie7a good general newspapers.
i am glad to see such cheering news for
Democracy from all parts of the State, and
we here wish, to be heard too. Here is a
challenge for Old Franklin, soundlys Dem
ocratic as she is.H6 Wayne county will in
crease her msiority for the Hon. Allen G.
Thurman on the Sth of October next by a
greater per centage on her majority of 1866
than franklin county will increase the pei
centage on her majority of last year. Stick
pin there and bring out your voters
We will certainly, If. We are already y
experiencing here the overbearing inso-
lence OF. the Negroes, now that their Radi-
ealsdeceivers are leading them to believe
that the celored is superior to the plain
man; they walk the streets armed and, as
they say, prepared to chastise any and all
who dare breathe o. syllable against the
dignity or respectability of colored gen.
tlerien. On Friday last one Negro drew
his revolver on another chased hin
through the principal street, and attempted
to shoot him because he had so far faller
as to pay particular attentions to-
white woman of not very reputable char
aeter.s Both colored gents' were arrested
The would-be slayer of his brother EN-
ployed a lawyer, as did also the prosecuting
witness; and such scene in court
Three colored gentlemen did condescend t,
give evidence, and such a ademonstration o
ignorance, lying, impudence and dishones
ty cannot be conceived as was there ex
hibited.S Alasi for our poor, fallen humai
nature. If .'riggers" really be human be
ings, may God enlighten them and Civ
them some idea of the evil of lying, an
the dignity. value and beauty Of truth
The Justice, who tried the case, and who
and has been Republican, was SO terri
bly, shocked at the loud and eontradictor
swearing, as well as at the impudent eS
preston and naughty airs of the -blac
creatures, that he declared before the pee
pie he could not, in conscience, put tn
ballot into hands of such people, an
would certainly vote against negro SUI
