DINNER

Speeches by F. T Cooper, J. D. Stewart, J. NJ.
Simmons, w T. Ratlif
On our arrival, at an early hour, We found
about three hundred people upon the grounds,
and vehicles arriving continually until half
past eleven o'clock, when it was estimated thai
the crowd numbered fully six hundred, one
third of whom were ladies'
We first visited the pits, which were liter
ally covered with smoking meats, to the
amount of fully two thousands pounds the
odor from which reached the utmost extent OF
the grounds, giving a foretaste of the treat
that was in store for u.s.
Our attention was next directed to the
speakers stand, erected under the shade OF
the forest trees, and surrounded by seats which
were filled with the fair daughters of our
county, than whom no section can boast OF
fairer or more patriotic.
Col. W. F. Afford called the meeting to or
der, and in few we'll chosen and admirably
delivered remarks introduced
E. BARKsDALE,
who discussed the political issues of the day,
in a speech OF nearly two hours.
Mr.. T. A. MCWILLIE
was next introduced, and although he was
under the disadvantage of speaking to hun
CRY audience, made one of the most telling
speeches we have had the good fortune to hear,
giving an earnest of oratorical eIoquence, and
culture which viii credit the judgment of our
people in their selection of him to represent
them in the next Legislature

DINNER

being announced the crowd repaired to the
tables, which formed a square, and were
! literally grooming under the weight of good
things, prepared by the ladies of the neighbor-
/ hood. And though the crowd was large and
composed OF uniformly hungry people there
was enough and to spare. After dinner sets
were formed, and the young folks indhlged the
| eight fantastic" to the strains OF a string
band furnished by that prince OF good fellows,
Col j. S. Hamilton.
At the conclusion Of the dancing the audi
ence reassembled, and d. p. Porter, Esq,
introduced Col f. I. Cooper, who gave US a
history OF the mission, aims and purposes of
what he termed the ''NationaI- Greenback-La-
boring-to-Perform = Party-of-Hinds-cou !"
which ELECTED many audible smiles, and sus-
tanned his reputation an orator and wit.
OUR NEXT SENATOR,
Col. J. D. Stewart, was introduced, and pro-
ceeded to "Hull' the G. B. party and ''Skin-
ner" too, in way highly pleasing to the
audience, but which we suspect was not so
pleasant to his opponents.
CAPT. W. t. RATLIFF,
our present and future Chancery Clerk, next
claimed the attention of the people, giving
conclusive evidence that he added to his
qualifications as a frst-class clerk, that of
fluent speaker.
Hon o. Clifton, Col J S. Hamilton, and
Mr.. Dan1 NJ. Potter, were called for, but in
fitting terms declined promising that they
should be heard from on future occasions.
Mr.. c. F. HEMINGWAY.
was next introduced, and delighted his hearers
with sound views on the finance question.
His address was made in great part to the
colored people, of whom there were a large
number present, and from the respectfully
attentive manner with which he was listened
to We doubt not his words took the form of
conviction with them, md they will be heard
from on the side OF ''6od and morality in
November next.
At q late hour the assemblage reluctantly
dispersed, and from the universal verdict Of
all present, we are constrained to the belief
that if there is anything the Forest Hill peo-
pie don't know about getting. up frst-class
harbecges, We are ignorant Of Il.

can be readily hads here to any paper stating
the above, and many other instances OF his
rascality.
eve may add that Dr. Glider, the
writer of the foregoing letter is a lead
ing well-known citizen and physician in
the county where he lives.)
