II republics are nngrateful, confederates

man to surrender, even ten years after the
battle, and they would rob him of his lau-

the war have any privileges under the law,
or any rights which Democrats are bound
to respect. The New Orleans movement of
1872 is referred to: q great Confederate Cen
efal was in that; it was disgrace the more
palpsbly because it did not win, and it did
not win because it had no heart in it, and
wanted only the votes of colored men. The
next move was to establish . white mans
party, and kill off colored men. That did
not win, but it was disgrace.
General Forrest is wiser than most men
who fought with him. He has surrendered
in the battle for a Confederacy; he has
acknowledged the rights of all men, and
pledged his influence to protect all men in
their rights. White men or colored can not
ask for more. There is NO other difference

that II was an entire success in every par.

In this campaign, and Ii was listened to
by an exceptionally large and fine aud.
ience. lnspite Of the uniavorable Condi.
ton Of the weather, the strictest attention

enthusiastic applause betokened the fact
that the address was appreciated. This
was true In spite Of the fact that the
Democrats did their utmost to break up
the meeting, descending so low ns to resort
10 n ialsca alarm Of fire to accomplish their
purpose. Fortunately the ruse was "too

After Gen, Noyes finished, calls were
made for Hon. j. T. UmegraiT, who was

There is no telling to what little tricks
the Democrats will not descend. We are

the election with Republican voters,
which deprives the latter Of his ballot,
while the former loses nothing.
