Fa rfleld Meeting.
Agent American liiblc Society for S. G


Mr.. Ediior:
short article, under The signature Of
"St,tes RWhts." appeared in '.TliH NEws"
Of the 9th instant, suggesting that a meet.
ing Of the people of Fairfield should take
place when the Hon. b. i. PRunY pays us
his visit, and that Democratic Club should
be organized at that time. This is move:
lnent in tho proper direction. aud we hope
that it will be fully sustained by our people.
The only political party which seems to
have been acting at all, is the miserable
wing of the wrotchcd Radical party, that
We have in our. State. Let the Democrats
act, and act efficiently, and another and
better state Of affairs will be brought about.
We will have an opportunity Of showing
to the white men, who have manifested
ness not only for negro allilatiou Iut even
for negro supremacy, that they have mis-
taken ;hcir game; That instead Of Being sud-
denly elevated TO power, they will be CON
signed to the indignation and infamy which
they deserve. Their fellow citizens arc
suffering under accumulated misfortuncs,
but they lrave not lost their sclf-respcc,
their sense Of propricty, and their common
sense. They know that while The Radical
party have already done all the mischief
that they could, and intend 10 do al they
can to degrade us further, that gho Democrat
ic pnrty stand pledged before the world, on
certain immutablc principles, TINT must
give us relief. Let no private and petty
ehmty Or jealousy reterNthis' proper move
