After tho list of registered voters was

the Secretary of State, Smith. Mcintosh,
the Supervisor for this county, got hold
of the list and wrote out an affidavit
thereon, signing his name, that tie regis.
trntion had not been conducted legally,
and tried to get the registrars to sign it.
They, Of course, would not do it, know.
ing that the law had been complied with
and they demanded Of Mcintosh the list
to compare it with the original boks. Ho
refused to give it up. Tuesday he sent a
note to the registrars telling them that il
they intended to sign his affidavit to meet
him at Post Oak yesterday "wednesday,
that he would be on his way to Jefferson
City with it. Our registrars knew q
trick worth two Of that. They had
been at work making out correct list,
which was finished, certified to by the
proper ficers, and started for Jefferson
the same day that Mcintosh did. The
list that Mcintosh has doesn't amount to
anythipg, because it is not signed by the
registrars and If that officious gentle

closely he will have FIVE. e.hundred dollar

Turner and Wedley.

The above named negro orators held
joint discussion ut this place Tuesday
night. Most Of the negroes Of the town
and u great many white men attended.
Wedley, ine portly looking mulatto
opened the discussion, and said some
very good things in favor OF the liberal
wing of the Republican party. He spoke
Of Gru,z Brown being the negro's friend
when McClurg was canvasslng his district
For Congress and appealing to the slave
holding constituency for support because
he was slave holder. In fact, he pre-
sented some very good arguments for the
liberal side Of his party. In his speech
and action he betrayed the characteristics
OF the genuine negro to a considerable
extent, but indicated mind Of rather
strong native sense. He gave his colored
friends some excellent advice.
After Wed!ey was through, Turner,
rhe great negro orator Of the day, arose
to reply. Turner is genuine negro, but
enc Of tho finest specimens Of the race
We ever saw lie has sharp.looking eye,
an intelligent face, and well-shaped
head. lie is educated, well.informed on
the political topics Of the day, is a
frst class orator and complete tricks,er
We doubt that the McClure party has
any better mind than j. Milton Turner.
Owing to his fund of general information,
his more than ordinary eloqucuce and
knowledge os debate, and his trickery, he
succeeded in carrying the mass Of the
negroes with him, and the meeting closed
with a. hearty cheer for j. W. McClurg.
We have laid aside prejudice and given
these two sable orators what We believe
to be their comparative merits, and to
show the people where they may expect
to find the negro vote; as a general
thing i, will be cast for McClurg. Both
speakers referred to the necessity Of edu'
cation in clevating the negro t" the true
standard Of political equality. Turnc,
denies that he was ever opposed to "rebel
enfranchismenr," but it was the form Of
the amendments that he opposed lie
wanted white and negro enfranchismen'
aud the right Of all to hold of6e in one
section in other words, he wants to gel
us far into the Caucasian family as pos-
sible, and If anything preferred before
1T. lie talked much Of what the Rad
,cai party has done for his race, and
quoted from n good many Democratic
speeches to show that they were in favor
Of a white mans government. Turner
said il didn't make much difference to
him who was elected, that he could get
an Office under either McClurg or Brown
file would condcscend to accept it FROM
the latter. The meeting was conducted
in ouito an ORDERLY manner.
