oppo.edlto Freedom Of speech.

ISDEpENDENcE, No., Oct. PA
fair specimen of Southern chivalry
was exhibited at Bnckncr, in this
county, thirteen miles east of this
place, last night. A Peter Cooper
meeting was advertised TO be held,
and, pursuant to notice, the speakers,
Enoeh Pepper, the nominee for State
Attorney; Chas. Mcbride, the nomi-
nee for County Marshal; VIM. &.
Adams, the nominee for State Sena-
tor, and G. b. d. Bernardo, arrived.
On their arrival, JAS. Adams, a BROTH
er of the democratic nominee for
Senator, came to Mr.. Pepper and told
him that this was his town, and that
he had men to back him. Tho meet
ing was opened and speeches were
made by Messrs. Pepper, w. c..
Adams and others. All the time they
were speaking, party of armed men
were in the house making noise and
interrupting them, and another party
was outside ringing cow-bells. Mr..
JAS. Adams, democrat, took possession
of the speakers stand and occupied
it until nearly l O'Clock in the morn
ing, all of the time delivering TRADE
of personal abuse against Mr.. Pepper.
After Messrs. Pepper, Mcbride and
Bernardo had retired to their beds,
Mr.. A. A. G.. Slayton and Jas. Men
dor, both of whom were officers in
the Confederate army, came to their
rooms, and compelled them to go with
them to drug store, where. a party
of men awaited, and kept them for
nearly two hours, telling them If they
could not preach the Tildcn doctrine
that they could not preach any. Mr..
James Adams advised Mr.. Pepper
not to canvass any more in that por-
tion of the county, rs he would fol-
low him with his men. Mr.. Pepper
has accordingly Withdrawn his can
vass in the eastern part of the county.
The people in this city are very indi@-
nant that such an affair should occur.

Proclamation by tho President

Prociamationo oy the president
by the President OF the United States OF America,
Proclamation.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 26.-From year
to year we have been accustomed to
pause in our daily pursuits, and set
apart a time to offer our thanks to
Almighty God for the special bless
ings He has vouchsafed to us, with
our prayers for continuance thereof.
We have at this time equal reason to
be thankful for this continued pro-
lection and for many material bless
ings which His bounty has bestowed.
In addition to these favors accorded
us as individuals we have especial oc-
casion to express our hearty thanks
to Almighty God, that by His provi-
dencc and guidance our Government,
established. one hundred years ago,
has been enabled to fulfil the purpose
of its founders in offering an asylum
to the people of every race, securing
civi, and religious liberty to all with
in its borders, and netting out to
every individual alike justice and
equality before the law. 1t is more
over especially our duty to offer our
humble prayers to that Father of all
mercies for a continuance of his di-
vine favor to us as a nation and as
individuals.
BY reason of all these conditions,
Ulysses S. Grant, President Of tho
United States, do recommend to tht
people of the United States to devote
the 30th day of November next to an
expression of their thanks and prayers
to Almighty God, and laying aside
their daily avocations and all secular
occupations to assemble in their re
spcctive places of worship, and OBJ
serve such day as day of thanks
giving and rest. In witness whereof
| etc. l.. s. GRANT.

WE believe that this year, outside
of the cities of New York and Brook
lyn, the republican majority in New
York State will reach $4,000. In 1872,
Grants majority, outside of those
cities, over Greeley, was 77,076. The
contest in that State has always been
battle between these cities and the
country. In 1870, The city gave $1,000
majority in round numbers. Never
since that date has it given SO large a
majority as that of 40, by 10000. We
do not believe that this time it is pos
sible for those cities to give majority
enough to overcome that of the coun-
try. 1t must be recollected that the
Argus, Of Brooklyn, the leading pa
per of that city, is opposing Tilden
with all fho power. and vehemence it
possibly can, and it will largely effect
the vote of that city.

CHEYENNE, Oct. 27.-The arrival of

The capture made by Gen. Merritt
consisted of 500 Indians, 700 ponies,
and large number of arms. The
last two named arc to be disposed of

DEMOCRATIC NEGRO HUNT
AT PORT GIBSON.

MEMPHIS, Oct. 25.--The jackson
Miss, Clarion, of Monday, contains
the following in reference to the riot
on Saturday at Port Gibson:
PoRT Gibson, Miss. Oct. 81.
To J. z. GEoRGE:-Itis is Lynch's day
here and much excitement. Spratt,
saying he was deputy Marshal, start
ed toward town with an armed BODY
of negroes. The sheriff met them
with possee and ordered them to
dispcrsc. Claiming right to keep
in his own county, the Marshal dis
banded after a parley. No body Of
our people armed. (Signed)
VERTNER.
A second despatch to j. z. George
says: The Spratt negroes fired from
ambush on few of the sheriff's pos
see, two miles from town, doing no
damage except to horses. The whites
returned the fire wounding one and
capturing several negroes. The bal
ance of the blacks escaped into the
swamps. After reinforcing we fol-
lowed, but have not caught up as
yet. (Signed) j. d. .VERTNER.
The Memphis 1rdidnche this morn
ing says the following was received
from republican sources last night:
JACKSON, Miss, Oct. N.-Represcnt-
ations that the negroes are the ag-
gressors in Claybourne county, are
utterly without foundation. United
States Deputy Marshal Spratt, who
arrived here last night, reports that
prior to to-day Lynch was gazettcd TO
speak at Port Gibson. The indica-
tions were that he would not be per-
mitted to do so. A deaths head
and cross bones with the, date of
meeting on each side were placed
over it by the county democratic
clubs call under pretcnse of presery-
ing peace. Hundreds of white liners
acted as shcriffs and police. The col
ored people were not permitted to
carry arms to the meeting having
been promised protection by the
sheriff. They left their arms two
miles from town. Atthe commence
ment of the meeting Lynch was gross
ly insulted by the democrats and de-
clined speaking under the restrictions
imposed by them.
A notorious democrat, who was un-
der number Of indictments was put
forward by the democrats when the
colored people began to dispersct
They were pursued by the democrat
ic mob with arms and eflectually
stampeded. They were hunted like
partridges, but the object was appar-
emily not to murder but to intimidate
them, so they would abandon their
determination to register and vote.
They were pursued two miles, when
reaching their guns they fired into
the whites wounding two horses.-
No other damage was done. One
negro was wounded and several ar
rested and lodged in Jail. This is
the first republican meeting attempt
ed to be held in Claybournc county.
Deputy Marshal, Spratt, reports a
reign Of terrorism throughout tho
county and says the republicans can't
vote unless protected by L. s. troops.
A company of troops is now station
ed at Port Gibson, but the command
ing officer did nothing to preserve
peace.

you republicans, who are troubled
with greenback-soft-money ideas ! A
word with you. We have often
warned you not to aid the old enemy
by going off into q third party of this
kind. Here arc facts for You rs to
how it worked in Indiana at the elcc-
ton there Oct. 10th last. There are
ninety-two counties in the State. The
total greenback vote for Governor
was 1928. Fifteen counties cast no
greenback votes. OF the remaining
counties, forty are republican and
these cast 9,4s2 grcenback votes, and
the balance, thirty-six counties, are
democratic, and they cast 8, ,731 green
back votes. 1t thus appears quite
evident that republican greenbackers
stuck to their text . great deal better
than those of the democratic persua-
sion. The truth is, that these demo-
cratic greenbackers win talk wonder
fully loud, and upon all occasions,
when republican greenbackers are
around, that they are the truest men
in the world for the greenback ticket.
They will swear by 1t, and then slip
off and vote for the straight Bourbon
democratic sect. Republican green.
hackers, If yon feel you must vote for
your third party candidate, just take
your democratic grecnbacker with
you to the polls, and with tickets
open, pass them in, and sec If he don't
want to crawfish. Our experience
leads us to the belief that three
fourths Of these bawling democratic
greenbackers are frauds,are stool-pig-
cons to draw offrepublicans. We warn
you, republican greenbackers, don't
be. cheated thus. Again, there are
some once republicans, who now
boost themselves on to an independ-
ent roost and then assume to talk
soft money to republicans, when, in
fact, these same fellows are Bourbon
democrats in disguise, and SOW the
seeds of discord in the republican
party to help the democrats. This
sort Of teachers are generally sore-
headed republicans who hate their
old party because their character
prevented them from receiving its
honors. Their crusade is not one of
principle, but of hate toward their
old party. -
