A SOLID MAN.

The Democratic and Conservative
leaders had q goOdly gathering pressen-
to hear them the other day at plaquet-
mine. The mostencouraginE clrcun-
stance about the whole affair was the
immense number of c1Aored people who
had come from far and wide to hear
white men whose reputation FOR fair
ness and liberation towards 10th rjenne
had compelled their respect ana cos5d-
dence.
The speakers Were evidently iuspa,ed
by the occasion and delighted with -
favorable an opportunity to combat the
preludlces Of their colored Nellow-citi-
zens. Col. $. j. N. Smith, OF, ~ he Ia
sometimes called for shortneesas sake

the hour. After the barbecue the me-
groes refused to tlisperse until they had
heard him again. In the meautimo q
distinguished lawyer Of this city was

gans who had done his feilow-canvasaer
the honor to be present. Apprn6cfing
