ard, who, when introduced, was received
by storm Of applause which lasted lit
orally for five minutes. Bayard grew
red and white, and could do nothing.
He began his speech after three rousing
cheers for him had ended the uproar.
He reviewed briefly the effects of the
war, said that the young man Of to-day
knew not what our war was, and the old
man ought to be sensible enough to for
get and bury its bitterness. He ridi-
culed Ccnkling's Southern war claim
bogy and declared Hancock's detcrmina-
ton to stand by the Constitution. He
proclaimed his own faith in the principles
of the Union, but also his respect for
State Rights. The money That the South
had collected so far in the way of South
ern claims had gone straight into North
ern pockets. Unlike Conkling, Bayard
had something to say for the honesty and
uprightness of his candidate, Hancock's
name eliciting another roar of applause.
Bayard's speech was the great event of
the campaign. The crowd could not be-
gin to hear any one speaker, as it reached
along the streets for several blocks, and
to crafty the desire of the thousands
upon thousands who desired to hear
speaking, some eight or ten stands were
erected at suitable distances apart, from
which different speakers addressed the
vast throng. Among the distinguished
orators of the night were Senators Ran
dolph, Herman and Hampton, Generals
Plaisted and Sickles, Ex:Gov. Tilden,
Speaker Randall, Judge T. J. Mackey, of
South Carolina, and many others. 1t is
described by the New York papers as the
grandest demonstration ever made in
New York, and ensures tho Empire State
to the Democracy in November.

Georgia elects her State officers on next
Wednesday. and, though no Republican
ticket is in the field, very excited and
bitter contest has been wagcd between
the two portions of tho Democratic party,
headed respectively by Gov. Colquitt
and ex-senator Norwood, the rival cam
didates for Governor. The contest has
been fierce, malignant and thorough, but
we predict that Colquitt will be hand
somely elected Governor, and that Leg

Ex-Governor Joseph L. Brown to the

Georgia have too much judgment to do

Colorado votes on next Tuesday, and
while 1t is expected that the State will go
for the Republicans, still the surprise in
Maine renders the result just enough
doubtful to make both sides anxious to

RADIO gave Routt, Republican. for Gov

A correspondent of the New York Tri.
bune says that in Columbia he saw "white
gentlemen (?) refuse to pay negro for
blacking their boots, treating the demand
for compensation as q good joke; and
when the negro demonstrated, he was
told to get out or it would not be well for
him." Another yarn is that "a few days
since, near Greenville, party of young
white men passing along the road saw an
old darkey in the field picking cotton.
They hailed him, asking some questions.
The negro looked at them solemnly, but
said nothing. apparently not hearing
them or not understanding them. They
repeated their question several times,
and then one Of them, drawing his re-
volver, shot the old man dead. A cor

Our people can see from these mali
cious and silly falsehoods, which are
published in one of the most respectable
Republican papers, to what depth of vii
lany and Misrepresentation tho Republi-
cans are willing to descend for political
ends. 1t is, however, not to be wondered
that the paper which would send secret
correspondents to public meetings will
stoop to this mean and contemplate sort
of journalism. BY tho way, this article
may have emanated from the pen of this
very detective correspondent. A man
who has no more self-respect than to
travel through the country attending
public meetings, where other reporters
go as gentlemen, while he represents the
sneak, would not, in our opinion, hesi-
tate to either rnisrepresent or lie outright.

AT the close of the war, when Horace
Greeley went on jeff. Davis bail bond to
release the Confederate President from
prison, the war feeling ran high, and pas
sion and hate were uppermost in the minds
of hundreds of thousands OF the American
people, the Union League Club, of which
Greeley was member, served him with a
notice that he was in danger of being dis
ciplincd for his act of humanity, and he
replied to their threats in the following
grand language: "Your attempt to base q
great, enduring party on the hate and
wrath necessarily engendered by bloody
civil war, is as though you should plant a
colony Oh an iceberg which had somehow
drifted into d tropical ocean," This is cx-
actly what the Republican party did. They
founded their party on hate and perpetual
sectional strife, and year by year the genial
influences of peace have been melting away
its foundation until now, fifteen years after
the last gun of the great war was fired, that
iceberg of which Greeley wrote has been
we'll nigh melted away, and the once proud

TRIED FOR HIS LIFE.

y great criminal trial Iuay be likencd
TO Il great drama. Each of the opposing
lawyers strives 10 make certain i'm
preston Oh the twelve spectators in the
jury box, while the Judge presides to see
that all is done according TO the rules of
law. One such trial took place some
twenty years ago iii Indiana. The law
yer for the prisoner WAS Joseph g. Mar
shall. great orator. The successful
WAY in which he put the evidence for
the defence. and the power OF single
sentence. are both exhibited in the fol-
lowing narrative Of the trial:
Curric was an eccentric old man, who
coupled the profession of schOOlmaster with
that OF "herb doctor" One night Curries
wife being taken violently III, he gave her
what he took to be calomel, but which prov
ed to be arsenic. In the morning she was
corpse.
Alarmed at what he had done. the old man
locked up his little cabin and fed the neigh
bOThoud. \ week later the smell o. the de-
cayinG body attracted the attention of pass
crS, and Currie was indicted for murder.
Marshall, believing him innocent of any
wrong intent. volunteered to defend him. -
The only witness called for the defense was
DIR. Cnrnett, a well known physician of Mad.
isOn. Mr.. Marshall, without preliminary
questions handed him two little papers,
carefully folded. and asked him to inform
the jury of their contents. The physician
took the papers, adjusted his spectacles, and
carefully examined the contents. \ OF salts
fed with this, he took up a little of each
substance, sifted them between his thumb
and tOreingcr, Smelt them, and a. final
test, tasted the least bit of each.
Il think, sir, this is arsenic, and that cal
Onel."
That is sufficient, doctor, said Mr.. Mar
shall. The prosecution had nothing to ask.
This closed the evidence, and Mr.. Mar
shall, bowling to the Court, and turning to
the jury, thus addressed them
y our honor, and gentlemen of the jury,
you have noticed the absence Of proof show
ing any crimna: intent Now, if, in the
broad light of day, and aided by the delicate
sense of touch, and of taste, and of sight
DIR. Cornett, learned in his profession and
skilled in the use of drugs, decides with diff
ficulty, and some considerable show of I'M
certainty, which is the poison and which is
the calOmel, what can you expect of this
poor old man, called from his bed at mid
. night lIS nerves unstrung with fear, his
/ heart aching for a wife shaken with dead
ly fever, his ewes dimmed with age his mind
overcome with dread
