preferred "a pavement OF asphalt and gravel.

his brow with a yard OF calico, the disciples
called upon I'D. Shaw, who was sitting peai
the stand, or reading desk. He stepped If
like a segment of a petriheG nhastodon, and
commenced his Grafton after the
MANNER OF CICERO.
He proposed to give the histories OF both
Presidential candidates, as revealed in their
respective sayings. He accused Greeley OF
entertaining that diabolicai Democratic idea
that the colOred men ought 10 be content
with what they had got, and nOtask for more.
He charged Greeley, also, with saying that the
colOred folks were not Inclined TO lean on
themselves, and in this connection Shaw
branched of and accused the Democracy OF
holding it 20 be little or no crime for a white
mar 10 Kill "A negro, and no Democratic Jury
could be to bring a verdict of murder
against him. He called Greeley to account for
saying the negro was ignorant; he retorted
that the Democracy OF the South was igno-
rant. Those who got their intelligence from
the press OF the South could not be anything
else han ignorant, for those papers dare not
tell the truth. II, said Shaw, the people OF
this country could read the truth in the pa
pers, there would not be a Democrat in the
state Of Tennessee. General Shaw h~arangued
the audience in his
PECULIARLY ELOQUENT
manner for an hour or two, and then quilted
amid shouts n cheers. The religious gath
ering, which made the walls Of the Baptist
church re-echO with the sound OF fervent
prisons and pious psalmOdy, poured out its
n4n at half-past ten O'clock, and these
people gathered into the hall OF Zion and
made the taii-end of the meeting very lively.

!" Viator, f" who writes on both sides Of

the paper, sends us from HptOngilc. in Lake
county, a very interesting letter, in which he
says that the cotton crop in his section never
looked or promised better. Thcy viii gather
from hvc 70 seven hundred hounds OF ginned
cotton 10 the acre, a yield which viii pay
very well. The farmers are uegiectiug corn
since il became chesp. The people Of Upton
vile expect the Northwestern company TO
extend their road from Hickman 70 that
point, and they promise a good passenger and
fflght traffic. The citizens about Mars
landing, IA me northern part Of the county or
Lake, are clamOriug for a p0stofice. they
have now To 90 to Tiptonvile for their mail
matter, and the distance is so long and the
route so lnconvenient, that a population OF
over fifteen hundred take only five papers.
Those people are certainly In a very benight-
ed condition. The postofice authorities ought
70 look nto their case al once.
