Matt Parker, a colored politi-
clan, was on hand and would
have made a speech but for the
fact that the audience all got
tired and decamped.
In the evening the band was
again called into requisition and
a crowd about half filling the
courtroom was mustered. About
two thirds of the audience was
colored. The field pieces, Ju-
Illus Schultz and Gen. VIM.
Wallace, of Austin, were turned
loose, Schutze being fired off
first. He discoursed at large
on the beauties of republican
ism in general; praised the
many excellencies of Davis re-
gimc and went for the democ-.
racy of the south generally and
of Texas in particular. He
was applauded at intervals by
the colored men present. AS

Wallace we can say nothing
about him, but presume he
made the usual cut-and-dried
republican speech, abusing the

agreed thar MI. Slriesillah
withdraw \ from the race,
to which Mi. c. cheerful
ly consented. sIie said that
Mr.. Parker. the colored cRndi-
date, had stated in meeting a
few days since, that if elected,
he would go there simply to
represent the colored people as
he would go there solely by
their votes.
At the conclusion of Mr..
Haynes remarks calls were
made for Parker and McAdoo.
Parker took the stand and stat
ed that he had said in his speech
that he wonld represent the re-
publicans in all political issues
that might come before the leg
stature, but upon all matters
concerning the general public
he would be found voting in
favor of their passage. He de-.
nounced the drummers tax and
the bell punch and said he op-
posed class legislation.
Gen. William Wallace was
called and took the stand; after
speaking some MINUTES a gener-
al yell and hurrahr.g was raised
lasting some alffteen or twenty
minutes, during which a drunk
en- Irishman struck a colored
man and got soundly pummell-
ed for his pains. Wallace es-,
sayed TO speak but his voice
was drowned with cheers and
yells. At this juncture the
colored men began leaving
the room vowiug not to
vote for Shepard and to
use their influence against
him. During the delivery of
Mr.. Haynes address he was lis
tened to with marked respect
and attention by the colored
men.
Gen. Wallace has been in
the BANNER office several times
and we find him to be an intel
ligent, highly educated gentle
man, worthy of a respectful
hearing, and we feel satisfied
had they heard him through he
would have said nothing to give
ofense ; while we differ politi-
cally from Mr.. Wallace we
think he should have been
given a hearing. The con-
duct of the crowd is
to be deeply regretted
and was strongly condemned by
a number CT our leading citi-
gems. 1t IS TO behoped that the
colored people will not condemn
Mr.. Shepard for the conduct of
the crowd last night, as he is in
no way responsible for it, not
being in the city.

if Davis knew of JoneS

decision in his Brownwcod
speech, he, Davis, would scorn

was one of the most unprinci-

Judge McAdoo defended his
action in the Roberiguez case,
saying that that decision was a
legal one and was strictly in
accordance with the law. And
when Jones said that McAdoo
was supporting Shepard because
the democratic county conven-
ton endorsed him, Jones said
what was not so there had
been no trade. The speaker
said he intended voting for Shep
ard for congress because he
was a true and honest man
which Jones was not. During
the speech Judge McAdoo was
frequently applauded and his
remarks were well received.
Wright Quincy, colored, of
Galveston, took the stand after

Murder at Arcola.

The BANNER learns from a
gentleman who came up on the
Santa Fe road on Monday that
a dastardly murder was COM
mitted in Fort Bend county,
near Arcola, on Friday last.
Jim Williams, colored, formerly
of this county, who married a
daughter of Jack Lands, enticed
or dccoyed one Alb. Laney, col
ored, into the woods, on Friday
last, and shot him in the back
with shot gun, killing him on
the spot. Williams then buried
or hid the body of his victim
under a log. The motive for
the killing is apparent when it
is stated that Williams is under
indictment for cattle stealing,
the case being set for trial at
Richmond during the present
week, and Alb. Laney was a
witness against him. Laney's
body was found on Sunday
morning. Jim Williams, like a
good colored citizen, went to
church or Sunday morning; the
murder Of Laney was the theme
of general discussion and sus-
picion pointed to Williams as
the guilty man. The colorcd
preacher during his remarks al
luded to the murder and said
something that led Williams to
think that he was the party re-
ferred to, SO getting himself
badly scared he arose and has
tily decampcd, the entire
congregation following his
example and him, too.
After a two hours chase Will
liams was captured by G. K.
Cessna, democratic justice @!
the peace for that precinct. An
immense crowd of colored peo-
pie assembled at Arcola with in
tention Of taking the law in their
own hands and hanging Will
liams to the nearest tree. Mr..
Cessna made them speech in
which he advised them as law
abiding citizens to let the law
take its course. On Monday
Mr.. Cessna took Williams &c
Richmond and placed him il
iail.
