A Great Revival--How 1t Is Con-
Quoted In the Kentucky Woods.
Special dispatch to the enquirer.
CARLISLE, KY, Sept. 27-For some
weeks past, and almost since the
Misses Vonhotz, the lady evangelist
Of Cincinnati, left this section, there
has been a religious revival at Bald
Hill, a small town in the west end of
this county, of an alarming nature,
such as was never before seer by
civilized people.
On hearing these startling reports
we resolved to- attend one Of them
and see for ourselves, so in company
with d responsible citizen as a body
guard we went out. Or our arrival
we found about twenty-five women
and men and one child packed into a
room sixteen by twenty feet with d
seyen-foot ceiling, used asa bedroom.
which had in it two large, old
fashioned beds, a small table, and other
n~ecessaries for housekeeping. We
mention these that you may the more
appreciate what follows.
The services began by one Of the
more aged gentlemen reading a short
passage of Scripture and offering a
prayer Of about thirty minutes length,
during which the services began in
earnest, and before the good brother
had got under full Roadway with his
prayer there was such an outbust of
"Amenl' "Pralse the Lordl" "God
grant itE "Halleluiahl" "Send the Pow
erl" SC, that it was almost impossible
to tell who was really leading the
prayer. Finally, however, some fellow
who thought a change would be well,
arose from his knees, and in thunder
tones cried: "Amen!" at which the
congregation arose and started an old.
fashioned song, during the singing of
which a lady Of sweet sixteen sudden
IL sprang to her feet like she was made
OF India rubber, and began clapping
her hands and stamping her feet in a
most violent and reckless manner (not
noticing how high her dress weat),
and screaming at the top Of her voice,
until thoroughly. exhausted, she fell
sprawling on the floor, where she and
e number of others male and female
who had followed her example laid in
the most disgraceful manner apparent
ly lifeless, for an hour. The leaders
paid 10 attention whatever to those
who were down, but kept the meeting
moving. Pathetic hymns would alter
nate with jealous prayers, and occa-
sionally some brother or sister would
give ain exhortation, relating the cir
c%umstances under which God convert
cd bis or her soul.
Presently one lady who had been ly-
ing at full length on the floor sprang
10 her feet, saying she had seen the

she angels" at the same time she

RATSE -

The Campaign Committee meets to
day. We trust it win now put in mo
ton the men who will firmly unite the
good citizens of the county. that the
Democratic ticket may be elected from
top to bottom and valuable reforms
accomplished. From now until the
tickets are counted on the 81 Of No
vember, there must be no wagering in
the determination Of the white people
to control this county in spite Of igoo-
rance, prejudice or Radical bosses.
We think a serious mistake has
already been made. Night meetings
of negroes have been attended by ouI
candidates and to a certain extent
countenanced. Some of cur candi-
dates have engaged in a discussion
with the independent candidate. with
the negroes as auditors. This is to
some extent excusable, for the purpose
Of testing the sentiment of the negroes
and we think the candidates will
agree with US, that it has been sufi-
GENTLY tested this year.
When Beck informed his colOred
cattle that all the charges made
against him "rolled off as water rolls
from an old brakes back" they
chuckled, cheered and enjoyed it i'm
mensely, and were firmly convinced
their boss had fully indicated himself.
When Mr.. Gibson fired red hot shot
into the Democratic party of Warren
county, and claimed that the whites
were forced to educate the negroes,
and that the property owners deserved
no consideration or credit for it, he
captured his prtjudiced hearers,
and the fellows Of the Democratic
faith felt some how. they were in the
wrong crowd. And when Mr.. Gibson
informed them, "of course he was a
Republican, they fully understood on
what grounds he claimed their suf.
frage.
The white people Of this county
have nominated a good ticket, and
when they nominated it, they knew it
would do more harm than good, to
submit it to these miserable gatherings
of hoodlums, strikers and igno-
ramuses. Three-fourrhs of those who
attend these places are there seeking a
market for their votes. We hope that
not a man on the Democratic ticket
will give u Of them a cent. Such a
curse as we have indicated will con.
vince the sensible eolored men that
the whites have yielded the last inch
they intend to yield, and if the blacks
want to draw the color line to save
their bosses. the responsibility will
rest with them.
