Mr.. Braughn rose to his feet in answer to
repeated calls, and spoke in favor of the
resolution. He carried the house by storm,
a loud applause attesting the great popu-
larity of the speaker.
Other gentlemen spoke in their native
tongue, and Mr.. Heidenhain came to the
rack again, this time talking in German,
and offering ticket. Several of the gentle
men whose names were upon it declined
when the secretary called the roll.
The meeting now fell to and canvassed
the merits of different gentlemen proposed
to be elected as delegates 1t was one idea
that no officeholders should be sent, another
that no Democrats should be selected, and
one gentleman rose and proposed that the
delegates stay in Cincinnati when they
were sent there.
Mr.. C. F. Buck defined the convention as
the only opposition movement to U. s..
Grant, who represented the principles of
Capitalization, despotism and prostitution
of the public service.
Mr.. Wintz declared if the meeting was
opposed to Grant, it would be proper to
embodv it in the resolutions.
A gentleman read from the Western Post
an extract which defined Liberal Repub-
licanism.
The following gentlemen were selected to
represent the people in the convention
Charles Potthof, Louis Schwartz, j. M.
Dirrhammer, George H. Braughn, George
Forester, F. Fernow, w. Dielmann, Il.
Oplatek, J.. Hassinger, B. Armbruster,
Charles VrOst.
Then the secretary called the roll of those
who had been selected, each one of whom
"rOse as his name was called" and delV-
cred himself of his sentiments.

E@ Voters of Bossier! to
the polls on Monday next,
without fail. 9a

The Republicans didn't car
ry Georgia and the Radical
charges that negroes were kept
form voting. In North Carroll
ma the radical ticket was elect
ed by great frauds. The
editor of the Raleigh Sentinel
demanded that the Legislature
investigate these frauds, and
give the people their rights,
and a load of slugs was fired
at him through the windows
of his dwelling, and his Office
was partly destroyed by being
blown up with gunpowder.
But for these things the Radi-
calls have no word of condem-
nation.

u Every Vote is Important.

We have strong hopes that
Louisiana will vote for Greeley.
If SO, his election is almost
sure. The Liberals have prov
ed, on a canvass, to be much
stronger in the parishes of
large colored populations than
at first thought, and so our eX-
changes are confident Of the
success of Greeley and the
State ticket. As to our parish,
we have but little doubt but
that it will go Liberal by q
decided majority. To make
assurance doubly sure, let
every Liberal be certain tt
cast his vote.

The whole machinery Of both
the Federal and State govern
ments is to be brought to bear
OF the election in Bossier on
Monday next. A chief con-
stable and deputies on the
part of the State, and a Com
missioner and deputy mar
shals on the part Of the Gen
eral Government, are expected
to attend each one of the poll
ing places, in order to preserve
order. United States Supervi-
sors, both Liberal and Radical
are to watch the State Com,
missioners of election, and hold
them to their duty. Surely
with all this, a fair and peaca
BILE election can be held. Blu
if withal, trouble should arise
if at any polls electors ar
prevented from voting or forcet
to vote contrary to their sent
ments, then can these watch
men report to higher State an
United States authorities, an
have corrected whatever wron
may be done. Then let ever
voter, white and black, tur
out to the election, so that W
may get a fair expression {
the public will.

VOORHEES.-ln "A recent speech
in Indiana, Hon. ID. w. Voorhees,
took occasion to continent on the
Louisville Convention. In the
course Of his remarks, Mr.. Voer-
hees used the following language:
81 have weighed the ca.amitipS
which viii accrue to the country
from Garnt's reelection against
the benefits procured by the cleo
ton of Greeley, and haze taken
my stand accordingly. have no
word of abuse To lllrl against the
men engaged in calling the Louis
vile Convention, but their pur-
pose cannot be mistaken. Every
intelligent man III the United
States knows that it is move
ment solely in the interest of
Grant and directly tending 10 his
reelection. The Convention Is
the only hope OF the Grant party.
Mr.. Greeley is now the only
choice we can make, brings peace
and reconciliation to the country?

JOHN RAY.-The Franklin SIM
of the 4th, has a review Of john
Rays speech at Winnsborough,
from which we extract she open.
ing paragraphs:
1t seems to us that the man
John Bay is one Of the most pita-
BILE objects that is now presented
to the people within the metes and
bounds OF the State of HetIisiana.
A few years since he steoJl be-
fore the community, morally. so
cially, politically, as among its
first citizens; now, except some
colored people who to not know
the man, ''there are none so low
as to do him reverence" He has
been spoken of as "a candidate for
the highest position in the State;
now, his own party, in his own
parish, have been. ashamed to Of
fer him as a candidate for re-elec-
ton to the position he has beld
for four years. that Of State Sena-
tor; and worse still, that party
even refused to send him us il del
egate to party convention, pre-
ferring to be represented by Il col
Ored man, and he only got a seat
i'll the convention, by begging q
proxy from some enc i'll Il distant

Gov. WARMoTH.-It is but Jus,
tice to give him credit for what he
has lately attempted to do, and
what he now proposes to assist in
doing for the good of the State,
and in according this we cannot
gainsay the fact that he made the
first move to cut loose from the
extreme radicals-they did not do
so. And in this connection we
reproduced the following from the
Jackson (Mississippi) Clarion, a
staunch democratic paper:
Since the fusion of the liberal
and democratic tickets in Louis
lana, the signs of victory over
Grantism are decidedly encour-
aging in the Pelican State. With.
out detractiDg from the merits of
members of our own party, who
have been instrumental i'll effect,
ing this movement so full of hope
to the advocates Of just and con-
stitutional government, from the
outside standpoint which we occu
Ply, we must say that very large
share of tue honor of the achiev-
ment belongs to Gov. Ii. G. War
moth, whose self-denial, consum-
mate tact, and energy, have risen
superior to obstacles that would
have intercepted the progress of
ordinary men. We have had no
predictions for him to help us
to this conclusion, as our readers
know. But the pleasure which
we are realizing in the hopeful
prosperity ofour Louisiana friends
have suggested this candid word
in regard to the course of Gov.
Warmoth. If he succeeds in do
: ing for Louisiana what Gratz
Brown has accomplished for Mis-
; sOuri-what Walker has achieved
/ for Virginia-and what Senter has
, done for TenneSsee-there is NC
measure of praise which will ex.
, coed his just deserts.

Think you that Sheridan de-
serves no credit for the stand
which lie has taken in favor of
the good people of the State? and
think you that every failure 70
cast vote for him does no. vir-
tually strengthen the chances of
his opponent, p. B. S. Pinchback!
This gentleman is not now to
be weighed in the same balance
in which he was weighed two
years ago. He has espoused a
noble cause, and what he has been
has nothing to do to with what he
now is. Under the deliberations
of our most influential leading
men in a conference committee
assembled, he has been placed
upon the ticket, and it is the duty
OF every man who supports the
Fusion ticket to cast his vote for
George A. Sheridan Morehouse

The following letter comes from
a gentleman of the very highest
character and position, and well
known to us personally. His
statements may be relied upon as
strictly true:
On Saturday, the 21st inst,
great outrage was perpetrated In
this county by officers and sol
diers of the United States Govern
mtnt. While the Kings Noun
tian Baptist Association, a body
representing over 5000 cOmmu-
nicants, was in session at Bethle-
hem Church, one Newton Long, a
Deputy United States Marshal,
and one Archibald Moss, who
seemed to have some authority
from Long, rode up, accompanied
by squad of armed United
States soldiers detailed from Col.
Harris command in Lincolnton,
surrounded the church and for
babe the people to leave. Long
and Moss were both drunk, and
! Long cursed and swore very free
ly. The proceedings Of the Asso-
citation were completely broken
up. The pastor of the church
, went out and endeavored to per
suade them to leave, and on tbeiI
refusing to do so the Sheriff of the
county arrested Long for disturb
ing the religious assembly. The
r soldiers cooked their guns upol
, the Sheriff, and commanded Long
! to come out. Efforts were made
=. to induce them to behave, ant
they were promised they would no
be arrested for futher violatln:

fl evening. When the people start
