Tuck or in Highland.

On Monday last, court-day in High
land, Hon. II. St. G. Tucker made a
speech to large meeting OF the citi-
zens of that county at Mo nterey, the
county seat. We are pleas ed to learn
that all looks favorable to the Demo
Gratis in that ga liant little ounty.
Mr.. Franklin had been invited to
meet Mr.. Tucker, his competitor, in
Highland, but though he was here on
Saturday he failed to go to Highland
on that occasion-the smt rtest thing
we have known him to do. He met
Tucker once lately, and "a burnt child
breads the fire."

The Third party not only demands

them the difference between the value
of gold and of the greenbacks they re-

shall accomplish the only object it is
capable of achieving, republican sue
cess, it will, of course, agree with its
allies that the new proposition, formu-
lated at the G. A. r. meeting in Wash
ington last week, which is that the
southern people shall also be taxed to
give all federal soldiers who were con-
fined in Confederate prisons two dol
lars day for every day of such con-

low price at which southern products
are now selling, it is hard matter for
southern people to bear the tax on
