them to aid the Conservative party
in throwing the Radical party out
of power and JOIN in the great re-
form movement that was sweeping
over the whole land.
The speaker then referred to the
speech made here on Monday by
Mr.. Etheridge, and commented just
ly and severely on it, and told where
Mr.. Etheridge stood politically, a
few years ago, and how he
was denouncing the very men and
measures he was now advocating;
how he (Scott) saved Etheridge's
life from a moblin East Tennessee,
and how Etheridge repaid him in
Memphis a few nights ago by not
allowing him to speak. He closed
his address by advising his colored
brethren to look to the white peo-
pie of the county for true friend
ship and information, and not to be
longer led astray by designing and
wicked politicians who sought to
rise out Of their ruin.
His speech was listened to with
marked attention, and he was fire.
quently applauded, especially when
he hit Etheridge such blows. After
speaking for about an hour he was
abouta to quit, when the whole
crowd called for him to "Go on, &c
on" The contrast between the
effect of this speech and that o.
Etheridge was marked. The crowd
dispersed to-day in a good humor,
and every colored man looked as il
he felt himself much more of 6
freeman than before; and there will
be some difficulty hereafter in the
Radical leaders driving them up tC
the polls. Every one seemed highly
pleased at the speech and its ap
parent good effects. Mr.. Scott hal
promised to pay us another visi
soon, and | can assure him he vii
meet with a hearty welcome.
The few white RAIDS around towr
look very sour since the speech, a
they see the crowd of colored mel
standing around Mr. Scott and sub
scribing for his paper so freely, ant
still listening to him talk. Th,
colored mans eyes are gradual,
opening here, and a few more strong
efforts on our part and he will b
able to see his condition, and thei
farewell to Radicalism in thi
county. ***

An amusing incident occurred
on the Nashville and Chattanooga
railroad the other day. A Tulla-
homa gentleman boarded the train
at that place and met Georgia
friend whom he had not seen for
some time. The two took a seat
together, and chatted pleasantly
about politics, the crops, the
weather, etc. Presently the Tulla-
homa gentleman saw a very hand
some lady sitting on the opposite
seat cutting the leaves Of a new
book.
"By Jove, isn't that a pretty
woman?" he whispered to his
friend.
Yes, she's passably good look
ing" was the guarded reply.
Passably good looking?" was
the indignant reioinder; "why,
she's as lovely as a speckled trout in
clear water, and as proud looking
as a peacock with its tail spread" "
"Well," retorted the other,
"since you think her so charming
and SO proud looking, I'll bet you
a hat that l can step over there and
kiss her without rufiing her tenn
per-"
"I'll take that bet!' said the Tul-
lahoma gentleman, with an incred-
ulous stare-"your stock of cheek
is heavy, l admit, but don't think
you have enough for a job of that
sort"
The gentleman from Georgia rose
quietly from his seat, stepped over
to the lady, put one hand gently
on her shoulder, bent gracefully
down and kissed her lightly on her
ripe, rosy mouth. She blushed con-
fusedly, but looked at him tenderly,
nevertheless, and smiled.
"Well, that beats the devil p ex-
claimed the Tullahoma man as his
friend returned quietly to his seat.
81 never saw anything equal to
your impudence in my life"
"There was nothing impudent
about it." was the calm reply; q
simply kissed my wife, and | will
take that hat when we get to Nash
ville."
He got it.

The sioux CAMPAIGN.
The views OF an Irreverent COrre.
spOndent.

Chicago Tribune.
BISMARCK, D. T., September 4. =
Five hundred miles in a life boat,
with his life in his hand, running
the gauntlet of murderously hostile
Sioux on the Yellowstone, and
murderous and treacherous
Indians on the Missouri, is the first
foolish adventure Of your CORE
spondent. 1t was not done out of
any particular spirit OF bravado,
but because any chance of getting
away from a sadly demoralized
army was preferable to remaining
with it and becoming demorahzed
oneself. l left Terry's army on
the last day of August. He was
then about fifteen miles from the
junction of the GIendive Creek
with the Yellowstone river. Crooks
army was on the other side of the
Yellowstone, going toward the
Little Missouri. Both Generals
were following "red hot trails" and
both Generals will, when the first
snow falls, seek their respective
quarters to put in their leisure
hours writing up the conundrum
why they did not catch the Indians.
The whitened bones and unburied
corpses Of Clusters men ought to
make the late Indian war too serious
asubject for jest; yet Yorick HIM
self could never have a more fruit
full theme; a burlesque so broad that
even the Snake Indians, squaw-men
and staff officers can see through is
certainly sufficient to raise the risi-
bles Of a "war correspondent"
To recapitulate briefly: After
coming into the mouth of Powder
river on the 18th, and fully supply
ing themselves with everything
needed to make an active offensive
war against the hostile Sioux, Terry
and Crook, on the 25th, started
again on the war-path. Both gen.
erals felt confident that they would
find General Bull and all his allied
confederates trying to steal round
the great Federal government by
crossing the Yellowstone toward
Forts Peck and Pembina. The
two generals based this last move
upon the evidence Of scouts who
have never, in any time since Gus
ter's massacre, been five miles away
from the great Federal government
The two generals moved off from
| Powder river on an old trail, ex.
pecting to intercept Sitting Bull Oh
