For the Herald.
A large meeting convened in this
village to-day, to hear the political
issues of the campaign discussed,
and was organized by calling Will
liam Hays to the Chair, and APP
pointing j. H, L, Scott, Secretary.
After some excellent music, by
the Sugar Creek Band, Col. S. N,
Yeoman, our candidate for the
State Senate, was introduced, and
for about an hour very ably dis
cussed the issues of the day, and
clearly showed that he is sound, and
fully competent to defend and car
ry out the great principles Of the
Union party, either on the stump,
or in the Senate. He claimed that
the issues now, are the same that
have existed since 1854, when the
Republican party was organized as
a Liberty Loving Union Party, and
still remains so-have fought it out
on that line ever since its organi-
cation. The Col, gave a succinct
abstract OF the political history of
the country and of parties from 49,
81 to the present, and a scathing
review of the action of the leaders
of the so-called Democracy, espe-
cially since 1860: who are again
asking us to pass judgment upon
this course; claiming that they
have been right, and the Union par
ty wrong, and asking the people to
reverse the judgment of the last
six years and confess having been
IN error! The Colonel said the De-
nocracy offer two reasons why
,hey should be successful, viz. =
'niggcr" and unconstitutional. -
Their whole cry is demonstration
III" to every act of the Union par
y, and their argument to prove it
S, that Olds was incarcerated, and
Tallandigham banished to his
riends Our Government cannot

raitors has lost his life, &c. They !
allied the soldiers cred handed
and "Lincoln hire. ]
ings," and now ask them to pass
he same sentence upon themselves ! :
Will they do it? The Colonel
learlY defined his position on the
ufrage question, and gave five !
ood and sufficient reasons why the
institutional amendment should
e adopted; but space will not per-
lit more extended notice. Suf- Y
ce it to say, that the speech was l
ell received and heartily endorsed. '
After the Band layed "Hail Co. C
Gen, Kimball, of Indiana, Il
as introduced, and entertained the :
rye audience with telling speech
n near two heurs, during the de-
very of which he was repeatedly v
leered. 1t is enough to say, that
was universally conceded to be e
10 speech ofthe season. The Cen Z
al is not only an earnest and elo- 8
lent speaker, but exceedingly fair Il
I'd palpably truthful-honest and k
We would be W
ad if Indiana would send us a few al
ore such. OIL
At the close of his speech three O
using cheers were given him, and 50

lthusiasm, determined to elect h,
avs, Yeoman, and the rest of the al
epublican ticket; and to carry the to

Negro legislatures.

1t is an old apothegm that "the hair of a
dog cures the bite" The editor of the
Memphis Appeat no doubt believes in the
same principle in hygine, when he urges
that negroes should be elected EN- masse
for Congress and the Legislature of the
State
"The United States will sicken Of negro
suffrage when Senators and Reprcsen ta-
tives Of that color, not mulattoes, nor the
negro that in the city has learned to ape
the white man, but the genuine, unadul-
terated article from the plantation and the
deck of the steamboat, odoriferous and OIL
eaginous, begin to take their seats in Con-
gress. If we conld place twenty negro
Senators and fifty negro Representatives
there tomorrow, the radical party would
not live another day. If We could elect
negro legislators, judges, sheriffs, and
Congressman of the same race. the north
crn States would probably be slightly nau-
seated 1t is perhaps the only means by
which their accursed race of folly can be
terminated No doubt, if there were con
cert of action and organization, with Sc
crecy and activity, many negroes could be
elected in Tennessee sent dozen to the
Legislature, or, if they are not eligib 70 to
that, send two or three to Congress, and
the back bone Of malignity there would be
broken.
