Richmond in the Field!

The meeting on last Monday was
complete success Gov. HARRAMAN, Of
New Hampshire, addressed not less
than 10000 on the Fair Ground in a
speech replete with truth and genuine
eloquence, for over two hours, and he
was followed, by way Of exhortation. by
Gen. Bennett. Full $1,000 strangers
were yet on the streets of Richmond. !
At night not less than 1000 to ], 200
lamps were ablaze, and the most mag
nificent display of Fire Works; red,
white and blue lights; Chinese Lanterns,
&c, DC, illuminated Main street from
one end to the other; whilst the business
houses on each side Of the street, it's
entire length, were illuminated, and fes-
tooned with all sizes Of Flags; various
kinds Of notices appropriate to the SEN
timents Of Republicans; transparencies,
etc, whilst the windows were filed with
our ladies, { God bless them who
cheered the crowded street below, who
answered back with real Union shouts,
that made all patriot hearts feel that
justice, equal and exact, would triumph,
and the Republic would be again saved
by the peaceful exercise of the Ballot,
as the National life had been saved by
the stalwart arms Of its brave Union
soldiers, led by the inyincible Chieftain
GRANT. Numerous private dwellings of
Republicans, all over our beautiful city,
were illuminated and bedecked with
flags and transparencies. 1t was q
proud day and night for our little

MISCEGENATION.
The World asks:

The World asks:
els The Tribune's denial that it ia
vors miscegenation honest or fetch ?"
Answer.-If there be any White Dem
ocrat who will make affidavit that he is
in serious danger of marrying a negro,
and desires to be restrained from so do
mig by law, we will consider the propri-
ETY. of granting him the legal protection
he requires. In the absence Of such af-
6davit, we oppose any legislation on the
subject. Among all the White men and
women we have known, we can recollect
marry, a Black. We remember dictum,
printed in some old Bible, that "A
man may not marry his grandmother"
but recollect no Scriptural or legal edict
that NAH may not marry his wet nurse
or laundress. On this point, we have
inclined to the Democratic axiom that
'sThe best government is that which
governs least" What thinks The World
of that proposition Does it doubt
that ''The world is governed too much2"
An act to prevent and punish illicit
connections between Whites and Blacks
would seem to be required, especially at
the South; and we do firmly hold that,
if White men will have Colored children,
they ought to marry their mothers
following the example OF that distin-
guished Democrat Col. Richard NJ.
johnson. Yet it seems to us natural,
advisable and wholesome. that men
should marry women of their own race.
though we do not set up our taste for an
memorable law to others.-IN Y. Tri.

81 SOMETHING TO THINK OF AND Do
Republicans. recollect the election for
State and County offices, comes off on
Tues day October 18th, and if we
gain the victory We must all work for it,
by being watchfulA and vigilant, from
now until that time-see every one of
your fellow Republicans--see all those
who are doubtful or wayering and talk
and reason with them-urge ALL Repub-
licans who have not registered to go i'm
mediatelys and see to it that their nam es
are on the list-then, on the morning of
the election, go to the Polls and yote early
bring your carriage or wagon with
you, and, after you have voted Yourself,
examine the LIST, and if your Republi-
can neighbor is yet absent, go after him
and bring him in Recollect that every
vote given in .. Old Wayne 1" counts
throughout the State, and, to insure an
overwhelming triumph over the destruc-
tive Democracy, (whose past record
proves that they not only sought to de-
stroy the Government, but that they still
seek to bring ruin on all-themselves as
well as the party who saved the Nation,
If by that means they can gain power.)
every Republican vote is needed. Let us
not only scotch the snake this time but
kill its head as well as its tail. WEcAN
DO IT, thoroughly and completely, if ev-
cry Republican will do his whole duty.
To the Polls, then, Republicans, and the
head of the democratic serpent will in
con tinentallay be 50 bruised and batter
ed at the Ballot Box, that the hiss of its
forked tongue will never more be heard
in all the land.

The T rials of the OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES to
The President in Behalf of Mrs. Surrait.

The President in Behalf of Mrs. Surratt.
"A few days ago Gen. David Hunter,
President of the Military Commission
which tried Mrs. Surratt, Payne and the
cmphatically statement which has been
going the rounds of the papers, to the
effect that he was the only member of
Commission who refused to sign the ap-
the case of Mrs. Surratt. On the con-
trary, Gen Hunter asserted positively
that his name was the first on the appli-
cation addressed to the President, but
he left the reader entirely in the dark as
to which members of the Commission
signed the docume nt, and who did not.
l have taken some trouble to ascertain
the facts concerning this document, OBJ
tanned from a reliable source, and the
annexed statement will show how quick
ly ordinary events developed in the trials
of great public causes, and forgotten by
the public, for nearly every newspaper
that published the first statement con-
corning General Hunters alledged refu-
sal to sign this paper, and afterward his
explanation, failed to give any explana-
ton OF the other circumstances of the
case
The facts are, that imm ediately after
the Commission decided upon their ver-
dict, an application to the President for
mercy in behalf of Mrs. Surratt, was
drawn up by Brigadier General James
A. Ekin, and this paper was signed by
Generals Hunter, Foster, Kautz, Ekin
and Colonel Tomkins. Generals Lew
Wallace, Horn, Harms and Colonel Glen
dennen, declined to sign it, which left ii
signed by a majority of the Commission.
This identical paper was afterwards
Surratt, by Mr.. Pierpont, one of the
counsel for the prosecution, and it now
forms part of the record of that trial
When presented it was found to be in the
due to him to state that the idea of get
ting up this paper originated with him
and his suggestion was approved by
Gen Hunter and four Of the members
of the Commission. What transpired in
the court room, while the members were
consulting and making up their verdict,
never can be known, as every member is
under oath not to divulge how he Or any
other member voted, but the preparation
and signing of this paper was anotie ell
and different matter. and it is due to
those interested that all the facts con
nected with the case should be stated
and they are fairly and correctly stated
above.

SNoBBERY-One Of the most DISCUS
tingly snobbish scenes took place at
Paris, Ohio, on the recent advent of the
infamous Vallandigham, on speech ma
king tour, that we have heard of for
many day, and it deserves more than
a passing notice, connected as it is with
the democraticly despised colored race,
whose normal condition with that party
is that they have no rights that
modern democrat is bound to respect,
save only, the free use of them and
theirs, by partizans Of that school to
promote their pleasure or profit.
When this convicted felon, arrived at
our neighboring town, the leading bell
weather OF the democracy, determined
to signalize the event by making him the
recipient of honors that are only award
ed to those who have saved their country
from imminent peril whose patriotic
services, and deep love for country,
caused them to be regarded with high
respect, reverence, and veneration-to
such eminent men as Washington and
Lafayette we say, this leader of the
democracy, concluded to ape the honors
conferred by grateful people to those
noble men, for their aid in establishing
on an enduring and eternal basis the
greatest and best government the sun
ever shone upon, and strew flowers for
the arch traitor, Vallandigham, to walk
over-the man who did everything in his
power to weaken and destroy the handi
work of those patriotic men and their
compeers, and did all in his power to
carve four petty governments out of our
glorious Union
course Of that convict, we pity the fol
ley and weakness hat could think of
thus rendering homage and worship to
80 base and dispicable an object! And,
yet, when we think of the entire freedom
guaranteed to all-of the similitude of
taste and like-our pity is wasted, and
we conclude, with Doughsticks, that the
sdamphools have perfect right to show
tue Iull eXGeL u IuctT Qom puOollSuueSo,
but not at the expense Of others -
Not having enough flowers Of his own,
and from the culling of his dem ocratic
partizans, this Beam ing light Of modern
democracy, obtained the privilege of
gathering flowers for his purpose from
the rear Of the premises owned by a
colored woman by the name of 'Zylpha.
After exhausting the supply there, we
are Informed that the flower gatherers
took the privilege of taking every solita-
ry flower Zylpha had reserved to orna
ment and beautify her front yard Thus
deliberately committing felony for the
purpose of Aonoriny felon ! Character
istic, isn't it :? Democrats effect to dis
pise the 'nigger,' and hook flowers from
a negro woman for traitor to walk
over! Shame!!

WASTE OF TIME.

There are only about THREE-FIFTHs of the ca
SEES of chronic disease that admit OF POSITIVE
AND RADICAL CURE. One-half of the incurables
can be, under favorable circumstances, much
benefited, and the other half only pailiated.-
am willing to treat any case and do what [
can for it, but it so happens that a very large
number of those patients whose complaints can
not be wholly eradicated do not wish to undcr>
go treatment. Now as my time at each point
visit is all needed in examining and treating the
DURABLE cases it would be waste of time for
me to bestow my attention upon those whom
cannot cure.
To avoid this, and save the patient all unne~
cessary trouble and expense, all are required to
write to me and await my answer before calling
on me at any Of the places l visit. Each per-
son SO doing must answer the following ques>
tons: What is your height. weight and age?-
How long have you been sick? Are you of
temperate habits? What do physicians call
your disease? Are your bowels usually costive
or otherwise? Is your complaint hereditary
that is, have any other members of your family
so far back as you can trace, been afflicted in
the same manner as you? Has emaciatlcn Gloss
of fesh) been gradually going on since you be-
cane aware of your present complaint? What
is the condition of your mind? Are your
thoughts and emotions generally of dreary
nature or the contrary Have you pains OF any
kind? If so. give their location. character, and
degree of intensity as nearly as you can and
the length of time you have had them.

A plain answer to the foregoing questions
will enable me to determine at once whether
the case is a durable one.
