TIE SPEAKING by the Radicals
was tame to dullness, and remarka-
bly, conservative. A goodly number
of white Democrats wore on the
ground, and feel satisfied that the as
surance from Antoine, that the Dem
ocrats would net put the colored peo-
pie in slavery if elected to power, and
that they were honest and honorable
men, had the effect to strengthen the
already large Democratic colored
vote of this parish.

WHAT CHEERS w greatly in this
campaign is the very large number of
colored men who arc focking to our
standard; to the support of honest
white men for an honest government,
which will protect white and black
in all their rights and privileges un-
dor the law. On Tuesday last, of
the 39l colorod people at the Smith,
Antoine speaking, one hundred, at
least, were sound, uncompromsing
Democrats, and on the streets the
shouting for Tilden and Nichols, was
the only noise heard.
