REPUBLICAN MEETING IN JACK
speech of Hon. j p. Newsham.

Speech of Hon. j p. Newsham.
JACKSON, La, June q, 1868.
EDITOR REPUBLICAN:
To-day has been grand one for the Rad.
Gals. Speeches and professions have been
the order of the day. The report that the
Hon. j. P. Newsham, member of Congress
elect, was expected to address the people
few like wildfre. From an early hour until
4P. NJ. the colored people poured into the
town. At twelve o'clock the Vice-President
called the meeting to order, and introduced
MIR. John PLANT who made short and
pointed address, and closed by introducing
Hon. j. P. Newsham, when the enthusiasm
and cheering which greeted this justly and
Worthily popular and eloquent speaker had
subsidized. He made one of those brilliant,
sarcastic, eloquent, and logical speeches
which have made him an oratorial reputa.
ton second to none in the State. The vast
crowd, now still and listening in breathless
interest, now cheering wildly in their en-
thusiasm, now laughing until the tears ran
down their cheeks, showed in every change
that they were under the magnetic influence
of the orator. Such raKing as he gave the
rebels will be remembered here for many
day. James De Gray, Calvin Goodman, and
Major Houston each made good and happy
speeches. At four O'clock the meeting Ad-
iourned, and forming into procession, with
W. F. r. r. United States flag, marched
through the town cheering for Grant and
Colfax and j. P. Newsham. The Democrats
may as well hang up their fiddle.
Please publish above in your valuable
paper. RADICAL.

Some enthusiast writes from New Or.
leans 10 the New York Herald that the
most observing politicians in the South are
strongly in favor Of the nomination OF
Chase by the Democrats; also that the Re-
PUBLICAN betrays great alarm at the pros
pect Of sueh a consummation, seeing there
in detection of at least one-third the Rad
ioal party Of Louisiana. This Herald cor
respondent Is either Wild visionary or the
breadest political Joker now running at
large, and e is hard to say which, He Ger.
tainly has qneer notions as to what
constitutes alarm; for there is no
man In the country we woula
sooner see head the Democratic
ticket than the Chief Justice, for the very
easily understood reason that there has
been no one named in this connection
whom General Grant could SO easily de.
feat. Why, with such an opposition ticket
our gallant siandardsbearer would "walk
over the track" aafa.aorA ssla,-
The Herald correspondent states one
plain truth, however. He says thatskould
Chase not be nominated the Democratic
leaders here can discern mot even a chance
for success" No one who at all compre-
bends the political situation here will cues.
ton this statement, hut 1t might be added
with equal truthfulness that under any
other leader defeat for the so-called De
mOcrasy is every bit IS Inevitable. n

Grant and Butler.
A dispatch to the Boston Advertiser tells
the following story:

A dispatch to the Boston Advertiser tells
the following story:
The friends of General Butler have for
long time been trying to bring him back to
friendly relations with General Grant. One
delegation made an effort four months ago,
but accomplished nothing though General
Grant said to them that If there was a
quarrel 1t was not on his side, and that he
had no hostility toward General Butler.
Another delegation took up the matter two
months ago, and was equally unsuccessful,
though Senator Wilson was one of the per.
aons interested. George Wilkes finally
engaged himself with the question, and
seems to have helped General Butler out Of
his difficulties. He talked with General
Butler and his friends, and after learning
their grievances had talk with General
Grant. II appears that General Butler was
much ineensed at General Grant for remov-
ing him from the command of the army of
the James Just before the end of the war
and that when General Grant, during the
first winter of his residence here, sent out
the invitations to his first grand party, Gen.
eral Butler conceived that the sending Of
one to him was intended as an insult;
whereupon he returned it in short order,
since which time he has had no intercourse
with General Grant except of a formal and
official character. 20
The adjustment of the situation was made
by one letter from George Wilkes TO General
Butler, one from General Butler to George
Wilkes, onefrom George Wilkes to General
Grant, and finally note of ten or twelve
lines from General Grant to George Wilkes.
1t is understood that General Butler volun-
tarily withdrew his rejection Of General
Grants party invitation on a state.
ment from Mr.. Wilkes that General Grant
said to him that he had not the
least intention to insult General Butler in
sending st, and was much surprised at it's
teturRsg General Grant further said verbal
" that he meant no personal disrespect of
General Butler in the language of his re-
port 81 the close Of the war. That phrase
about being bottled npn was common in
the army 1T the time, and was used to ex-
press military fact, General Butler re-
spends to Mr.. Wilkes that he does not so
much object to these words he to the gen
eral tenor Of the report, which he considers
unfair toward him. General Grants note
says that he IS willing TO consider General
Butleris return Of .his card withdrawn. and
that white be caRanot open masters about
his report, inlWhich be had no intention q
wronging any one, be is willing that Cen
eral Butler should ask for q court Of inquiry
II he chooses. The corfaapondenee was
brought to q conclusion With this note, and
q stated to be satisfactory to Mr., Buffers
friends. fitl

Another step in advance is marked by
the expectation per steamship Cuba, for
Havana and Baltimore, of large consign-
ment of Irish potatoes native to our soil.
In past years the home raised supply has
not been sufficient to fill the demand in our
own market, but this year NE have grown
an abundance for profitable shipment to
other parts of the country. There is no
reason why Louisiana agriculturists should
not supply both the Eastern and Western
cities with early vegetables, and secure
prices in those markets which will prove in
the highest degree remuneratiVe. The pol
icy of diversified crops, constantly advo-
Gated in the REPoBE1oAN, Is by far the best
for tie cultivators of our productive soil and
each days experience serves but to CON
firm the fact. Let planters bear this in
mind, and avail themselves next season Of
all the advantages presented.

In the Texas dispatches Of the Associate

In the Texas dispatches of the Assoeiatc d
Press few weeks ago there appeared a
report rejecting very severely on the char
acter of R. V. Whaley, lately made Col
lector of the port of Brownsville, charging
him with inaugurating the utmost corrup-
ton and fraud and discord in the custom
house, conniving at smuggling on an i'm
mense scale, and allowing himself to be
kept constantly drunk by the smuggling
ring. 1t would appear from the testimony
before us that this report was an altogether
false and malicious one, fabricated by one
Barksdale, who is represented in the Rio
0rande Courier of June 20, in
long article entitled Bartsdale,
the Boss Liar of America,p as being
very knavish and unlovely character, in
deed, and absolutely unworthy of belief
We have been shown by the agent of the
Associated Press in this city, who admits
that he was badly sold by Barksdale, a
letter from Mr.. Whaley, Vindiesting himself
from the ISLANDERS above mentioned, and
asking correction of false and injurious
reports. Mr.. Whaley's letter is Endorsed
by A. A. Deavalon, Deputy Internal Rev
enue Collector; Edward Downey, Post
master; and W. Healey, Mayor all of
Brownsville, and also Sub-District Com
mander Brevet Major General A. Med.
McCeok. 1t is but just that Mr.. Whaley's
refutation should be circulated as extern
sively as the charge AGAINST him.

twentieth day of March, 1863 and from that time the
penalty will be exaeted in all the parishes where the

after the tax rolls completed in the other par
ishes the penalty will be exacted.
The attention of Tar Collectors also called to the
fact that the Commanding General refuses to allow
the courts to grant injunctions restraining them
from selling the property Of delnquents to meet the
payment of the Convention tax. The Tax Collector
