TIE FATE OF TUE NEGRo.-The Rich
mond Examiner concludes an article on
the subject of the fate OF tho negro, with
the following truthful remarks, which we
commend to the attention Of the colorcd
people: There is no party in the North,
nor any part of any party, which secretly
desires TO see the whites of the South
ruled by negroes, and the Southern States
made negro provinces, Far less doany
ayow it. In the long run, "blood Is
thicker than water" even among the
most unprincipled men of the white race.
Nothing is clearer, in the future, than the
fact that the negro will be cast aside by
the Radicals as soon as he has served
their purposes in the present contest.
And it is q safe prediction chat the negro
will have no more implacable enemies
than those who now profess to be their
peculiar. friends, just as soon as these
professions are no longer profitable.

Hon. John T. Wilson.


In our last paper we spoke of the
speech of this gentleman before the
Grant Club at this place on Monday
night of last week. On Tuesday night
he spoke to large and attentive au-
dience at Portland. We were in Port
land on Saturday morning, and heard
the people speak very highly of the
speech. He made very favorable i'm
preston. On Wednesday night he
spoke at Lincoln Furnace, and there
was big meeting. Gen. Powell was
with him at this meeting, and made
one of his best speeches.
On Thursday night we took Mr.. Viii.
son TO the meeting at the Town Hou
in Franklin township, A very heavy
rain came on in the evening, bat
when we arrived, in the midst of the
rain, we found the house filed. If the
rain had not prevented them from
coming, there would have been several
hundred people. Mr. Wilson spoke
nearly two hours, and the people were
well pleased.
The people who heard Mr. Wilson
for the first time, during his recent vis-
it to our county, were surprised at his
plain honesty. The Democrats had
been charging him with being "bloat-
ed bondholder," and some had the i'm
preston that he was proud aristocrat,
like John Sanns; but they found him
to be plain old farmer, possessing a
remarkable amount Of plain, common,
business sense. He may have succeed
ed in his private business; if SO, it is
an evidence that he is fit to manage the
BUSINESS Of the public.

science and the public welfare, as well
as to present a bold and united front in
opposition to Empyricism, and the de-.

A Board of Censors was next elect
ed, consisting of j. L. Kehoe, G. X.
Crumit, and j. S. Reasoner.
Since the law provides that certain
individuals must procure certificate OF
qualification from their County Board
of Examiners, after the lst of October,
1868, such Board was appointed, af-
ter a motion to that effect, authorizing
the President TO make the selection.

pose, and report the names of all other
irregular practitioners in the county,
who fail to report to the Board in per-
son, or otherwise. To such as are
possessed of proper qualifications, a
certificate of the fact will be given,
signed by the President, and counter
signed by the Secretary Of the Society.
On motion it was agreed that the

of medicine in Jackson county, be no.
titled to come in person or by other
means, and satisfy the Board of Ex-

BY THE EDITOR.

The meeting at thisp on last Sat
urday was much better than had ex,
pected. The parade Of the Grant
Guards oH horseback was a fine thing.
And then the OK wagon from Liberty
township attracted much attention.
There were sixteen yoke of oxen haul
ing the, wagon, and in it were thirty
seven young misses, all dressed in
white, carrying the national colors, and
singing patriotic songs.
After dinner Gen. Sherwood, candi-
date for Secretary of State, made pow
erful speech, after which rousing
speech was made by Hon. Mahlon
Chance, of Fremont, Ohio.
Atnight our Democratic friends kind
ly yielded the Court Room, which was
theirs by right, for their regular club
meeting. The room was f led, and
many went away who could not get
seats. But the meeting was failure,
for the following reasom A man call
ing himself Col. Farden, Senator from
Alabama, came to this place with the
speakers, and was very anxious to speak.
He was held back during the day, but
at night he was so importunate that he
had to be openly insulted, or permitted
to speak. So he went in, and after
boring the people for an hour, they
would submit no longer, and hissed him
down. Served him right. Nobody
invited him, and nobody sent him
But he spoiled the meeting.
1t was remarked by all who heard
him that Gen. Sherwood was one of the
finest orators that ever spoke in Jack
son. Physically, he almost perfe(t t
specimen Of a man, and then his elocu-
ton is Of the highest order of excel
lence. And there is a nobility in the
very countenance ofth man which will
command respect from all parties. We
predict for him bright career in the
future. There were two things about
this meeting that require an apology.
In the first place, no half fare arrange
ment was made with the officers ofthe
railroad This was caused by the tele-
graph line being down, until was too
late to get the proper notices circulated.
And then the meeting was held in the
open sunshine, at the side of the Court
House. This was too bad. But the
Central Committee could not get the
Fair Ground without paying tho cop
perheads, who contIol it, an extrava-
giant price for it. This they declined
to do, but they ought to have done so
because it was an outrage to put the
people in the hot sunshine.
But we are going to have another big
meeting before the election. We have
made application forJohn A. Bingham,
or Ex-Gov. Dennison, or some other
speaker with a national reputation, and
then we will have half fare, and have
the trains to wait until the speaking is
over, and we will have the Fair Ground,
or some other good grove, and the peo-
pie can hear with some comfort
Then you must all come.
