MEssRs. WAsHINGrox HALEY AMI

MEsSRS. WASHINGTON HALEY AND
GEORGE STRAUSS These coIored citizens
spoke by appointment in the City Hall
Saturday evening, and in their plain and
sincere manner, declared their purpose to
act with the Democratic party, and against
the perniciOus policy of the Radical leaders.
They urged their colored brethren to unite
with them i'll this movement, and pointed
out the evil consequences of becoming the
plant tools of the carpet-bag emmissaries
1t is proper TO state that both these freed
men declared emphatically that their course
was not influenced by the money, favor, or
solicitations of white persons, but by tLeir
honest convictions and sense ofduty.
The Daily clarion. [volume] (Jackson, Miss.) 1866-1888, 1868-06-15
After the coIored orators had closed

on Saturday evening, a brief discussion was
had by arrangement, between Coils. Z. M.
Yerger and Dugan. For an hour or so, blows
fell hot and heavy; and each side seemed
delighted with the execution done by it's
champion upon the positions of his adverse
ry. The Democrats were entirely satisfied
with the result. The colored folks testified
their satisfaction with the defamation of
Col. Dugan, in a manner more uproarious
than reasonable or appropriate. They
should know that vehement denunciation,
and random assertion and clap-trap are not
to be weighed against the solid arguments
and incontrovertile facts presented by Col.
Yergers

sPEClAL NOTICES.

ERIE RAILWAY In our columns to-
day will be found the new Time Table of
this road, which took effect on the tn inst.
Several important changes have been made
with which all our readers should become
familiarized. The Ere Railway has long
held leading position in the great chain of
roads uniting the West with the East, which
is not alone attributable to the superior &c
Communications afforded passengers. the uni
form civility of its officers and agents, the
grandeur and sublimity of the section of
country which it traverses, but to the great
vigilance exercised in the running of trains
and providing against accidents.
Despite the closest scrutiny and circum-
spection, however, all great and important
thoroughfares are liable to accidents. In
the case of the recent accident near Carr's
Rock, no human prescience could have avert
ed the sad catastrophe For four years prior
to its occurrence not single passenger was
injured on this road; and it is generally adj
Elitted that no Line vent into the past win
ter in better condition, in all respects than
the Erie but so unusually long and severe
was the winter, Lnab the iron III SOlu0 pdI 10
of the road yielded to its rigid severity
Yet at this time the road is in as perfect a
condition, as the average of those in the
country. To render it safe beyond ques-
ton however, the company is substituting
steel rails as fast as pt ssible for the defec-
tive iron ones; laying double track on the
Delaware division, and doing everything 10
place the road in the most thorough condi-
ton The 81 100000 which the Company
recently came into the possession OF will en-
able all of these improvements to be made
AS showing one of the most prominent
achievements already secured by the work
which is being pushed rapidly forward, we
might mention the fact that the trains at
present experience no detention, but arrive
at New York and the principal Eastern cit
les at the same hour as rival lines. 1885
The Erie continues to issue through tick
cts to New York at So As less than any other
route-a fact which our readers will do we'll
to bear in mind, when visiting the East
either on business or for pleasure.
