VIDALIA, November 9, 1876.
Two thousand people here assembled to
greet the next Governor. The weather
was unfsvorable-rainy and cold. The
speakers were Judge Hugh J. Campbell.
Hon. 8. B. Packard, Colonel James Lewis,
General Jack Wharton and j. P. Harris,
Esq.
Judge Campbell made the points that
this State having 20 900 more colored voters
than white. and besides having, in addition
to the ex-Northern soldiers aud settlers and
the old Union and Whig native whites, the
Confederate Republicans, headed by
Williamson, Beatty, Longstreet, Turner,
Fontelieu, Yost, Leonard and Boreman,
numbering altogether 5000 white Repub-
licans, making; in all Q solid, Ia a ful and
just majority OF $4,000, the Democrats
sole hope of carrying the State was either
to convert peacesbly and legitimstely
10000 colored men from Republicans to
Democrats or to bulldoze them. They can
not bulldeEe them, for to do so will be to
make null and void the elections where the
bulldozing is done. The country will not
allow President and . national govern
ment to be bulldozed instead Of being elect
ed into power. They can't convert them,
for the colored man will not vote volun-
tarily for Tilden, the Copperhead, and Hen
dricks, the man who as Senator voted
against the thirteenth, fourteenth and
fifteenth amendments. Tbs moderate white
Conservative would have no more tolers CO
under the rule of solid white South than
the Republicans.
Mr.. Packard was welcomed by cheer
upon cheer. He spoke with tremendous
power. He delineated graphically the de-
pendence of Louisiana npon national aid,
the opposition by the Northern Democrats
to such aid, the absolute necessity Of the
levee, sugar and rice, river and bayou in
terests of Louisiana being aided by the
general government, and the vital fact that
the national Republican party was the only
party in whose hands these great interests
were sure Of protection. he showed also
ths, Governor Kellogg administration had
reduced tho debt and reduced the taxes,
and that by the Republican vote against
Democratic v0res.
He made . magnificent and powerful ap-
peal to the white Conservatives to lay
aside their prej and take the natural
leadership, which belonged to them, OF the
colored people. They could never sup
port the Democratic party. 1t would not
he sensible nor reasonable to ask them to
do it. But they will rally around and &C.
cent az leaders ell honest, Just and capable
white men who have the moral courage 10
take a stand among their political friends.
Concord;s is good for 300 majority.

Governor Kellogg received last night the
following dispatch from the chairman Of
the Republican National Committee:
REPUBLICAN NATIONAL COMMITTEE
Fifth Avenue Hotel, ,
Eew York, November 2, l87t.)
To the Republicans Of the United States:
A spontaneous and enthusiastic uprising
of the Northern people within the last few
days, evidenced BY recent advices up to
this evening at these beadquartere, leaves
no doubt about the election of Hayes and
Wheeler by . large majority of electoral
votes.
The evasive and valueless promises of
Mr.. Tilden, with the stereotyped and re-
luctsnt approval forced by him from few
Southern Democratic committees not to
press rebel war claims for loss or damage
to property, although still demanding the
payment, to rebels - we'll ~ to loyal per-
sons, of about q OoO, 600, 600 claimed in
their bills before Congress for supplies fur
nished or taken and for use and occupation
Of property, have failed to produce convic-
ton in the face of the overwhelming evil
dence of their contrary purpose, and have
alarmed, instead Of quietipg the Northern
people.
The imminent danger 70 the public credit
and to revivlng commerce and manufac-
lures, if the payment of the national debt
is to depend upon Q government OF men
whose rebellion that debt was created to
suppre So, has aroused the merchants and
business men of New York and of the
country.
The violation over nearly half the terri
tory of the nation, by intimidation and
murder. of the fundamental Republican
principle that the ballot shall be freely
ch osen and safely cast, is rallying united
North to put down promptly this new
Southern rebellion.
With this uprising of Northern senti
ment every Northern State will probably
be carried for Hayes. The frauds in New
York city will be prevented and the Dem
ocratic city majority kept down to such an
amount that the large Republican MAORI
ties elsewhere will not fail to overcome il
and secure decided majority in the State
for Hayes and Wheeler.
The three Pacific Coast States and New
Jersey are believed to be surely Repub
lican. and there is . good fighting chance
for Indiana; while the informant N from
North Carolina, South Carolina, Florid.
and Louisiana shows that in spite Of tn,
murderous opposition Of Tilden Democrat
! those Southern States will give msjoritie
for Hayes.
The systematic and prearranged boasting
from tho Tilden eadquarters in New Yorl
are only desperate expedients to avert in
evitable defeat.
The Republicans of the country hav'
only to perform their full duty, and ever.
man go early to the polls, and the triumph
| of Hayes and Wheeler will be overwhelm
| ing. H. CHANDLER, Chairman.

Dissertation of tho Tomb of the Lat
Colonel Field.

A card in another column, signed by the
widow of the late Attorney General of the
State. indicates d. gree Of depravity such
as in civilized countries is seldom reached.
The tribute of affection and regret with
which tender hands had draped the tomb
of the dead were ruthlessly torn down and
carried away or trodden in the earth. Vases
and other objects of value were left un-
touched, and no other tomb in the vicinity
was despoiled, which facts 60 to show that
the motive Of the miscreant was malice and
not plunder. 1t is sincerely to be hoped
that Mrs. Field will be able to discover the
perpetrator. whom she is disposed to prose-
cute to the extent of the law.

him with great interest, ~ he demonstrated
With tremendous power the great vital fact
that to Louisiana planters and business men
of all others the success Of the Democratic
party, both State and national, meant the
abandonment of ell hope of nstionsl aid to
tho levees, the destruction OF . portion OF
IIouieiauss agricultural interests, and as
conseeuence heavier burdens on the re-
naming part; the lessening OF her com
meroe. the domination Of . proscriptive,
tyrannicsl, violent, murderous party; .
1oyerCmeut based on caste, and conse-
ouentiy despot;c, snd the resulting lose Of
Immigration, and depreciation in lands and
valuee of al kinds. His words produced
powerful impression. He showed also that
tho les.euing of the State debt from

from twenty-one and one.balf to fourteen

Another large gathering greeted Senator
Vests party at this place yesterday upon
their arrival from M,nden. =
If numbers and enthusiasm among II .
Republicans indicate success, then surely
the contest of next Tuesday is theirs.
The large crowd listened with eager at.
tention to speeches by J. G Lewis, candi-
dste for the Legislature from Natchitoches,
Senator West, j. ID. Kennedy and Hon.
Raford Blunt.
Quite number of the Democratic citi-
Gems were present, and propounded ques-
tiens continually to all the speakers.
The utmost courtesy and good feeling
prevailed. Nothing was said on either side
to which the slightest exception could be
taken. The Republicans welcomed the
chance to reply to their opponents, although
the latter took NO comfort in the results.
The replies they got evidently gave them
no consolation.
The fourth district is apparently re-
deemed from intolerance, and that alone
would be . Republican victory, pressging
insstimable good for Louisiana. Y.
