The meeting adjourned with three
cheers for Walker.
We learn that this was one of the
most successful meetings ever held in
Marshall county, several Republicans
who participated having openly re-
nounced their past party associations
and united with the Democracy.

arrived here a few days since, and
found posters up in many places calling
on the black and tan to assemble at the
Town Hall, on the evening Of the 4th
inst, to hear the principles of the color
ed party made white, and also to hear
the Conservative, Democratic and all
other parties opposed, demolished by
John A. Hutchinson of Wood and a
carpet. bag Postmaster of this place.
Great arrangements were made; the
true blacks (not blues) of the county
were expected and as the time ap-
preached we heard the firing of mus
ket, which was intended AZ the recep-
tion of the mighty cavalcade approach
ing the lower end of our town. We
asked what was the matter? A friend
says, look out and see We did, aud
beheld a great sight in the shape of
the Elizabeth delegation, consist
ing of two wagons with tive
flags, the material of which it would be
hard to describe. But one thing we did
observe, and that was that the flags
were in keeping with the party and
principles-both dirty and black. The
Marshal of the procession was in the
advance, on steed which looked like
as if it might have been resarrected
from some of the chargers formerly in
the commands of Annasansel or Jen-
kins. Do horses and men ever have
the kidney worm: If so, then rider and
horse were so afflicted. Well, the hour
arrived for the assembling of the
multitudes; the gas lighted; the
carpet -baggers OH the stage: but
nary Hutchinson. "Sharp trick IN
'Scoff," says a dun colored Rad. "We
know all lie has to say and don't want
to hear it repeated. Twas in hopes that
II. would be here with some light and
information, as things look doubtful"
Scotield, the carpet-bag man, came
forward and opened the same old TRADE
of abuse against Copperheads, Butter
nuts, &c. He then set about to en-
tighten the tan colored on their plat.

platform and is not one of the issues
before the people, and winds up by say
ing he endorsed Congress, Grant and
Stevenson. He said nothing about
taxes, only to show clearly he knew
nothing about it.
He says there are ne differences be-
tween the tao platforms OH the bond
question. Such doctrine as this is put
into the mouths of the poor ignorant
class in West Virginia.

made arrangements with the indomnit-

lish Democratic paper here. My word
for it, Wharton will make it warm for
the few carpet baggers. =.
The Democracy are well organized in
this county and particularly in this
township and ready for the conflict.
A very marked difference exists be-
tween the two parties in this place;
with i few exceptions, the only good
responsible men in business and stand
ing belong to the Demosracy.
Mr.. Editor, am proud to find in my
travels that the men who breasted the
battle for the Constitution aud the
Union are now generally found
in the ranks of the Democracy rallying
to the support of the poor mans, white
mans aud laboring mans ticket.
We are looking forward to the day
when our candidate for Congress, MIR. II.
S. Walker, will address the good people
of Writ county. If the other counties
of the district will do as we'll in proper
ton as little Writ will, Mr.. Walker
will distance the General in the first
heat. GEEENBACh'
