Pursuant to a call of tue citizens of Clark county for a meeting tit be held tit the Court House in Athens, in the interest of the Eatonlon. ed, tun or twclv _ .u^ing^r^ to t" estate" 1 He i MU “° r ' “l* 4 ;'""* «t this county, the cause of which is, we presume, nothing transpires worthy the attention of the reading pnblic. Such may be the case at this time, but nevertheless, we arc pleased to make known through your columns, that this section of country can make better claim to prosperity nt this period titan at any rime since the late war. The agricultural yield undoubted ly will far exceed any that has been made for many years past. Wheat crops were excellent, nnd the cum crop prom ises a most abundant yield. Wc have traveled over the greater portion ot the ' county, and everywhere the extensive | cotton fields, in richest exit Iterance, are I i i open to our gaz •. Old farmers tell i us that the product of this stupe will be surpassingly great. In regard to politics, the people are somewhat divided. There are a few “ Straights,” who still seem to glory in their *• narilsliellism,” but we think their numbers are so small that they will not effect the very natural re sult of division. Col. J. D. Mathews, of Lexington, visited our town a few days since, and delivered a clear, forcible, and elegant address, earnestly urging the Democratic support of the Baltimore nominees and the “dethronement” of the present corrupt administration. The address was well received, and appreciat ed by nil, except a few of the aforesaid “ Straights,” whom the truth seemed to “pierce to the quick.” Col Mathews is a candidate for Congress from this Dis trict, subject however to the nominating convention. We hope the convention will well consider his claims, lie is a man of signal ability and irreproachable integrity. Upon the gory field h2 has been found true; indeed upon his perso i he carrys the battle-scars of Liberty. If the eighth sends him as her representa tive, we predict that in him she will find an able advocate nnd one faithful to the “ mighty trusts reposed.” ALPHA. closed by urging harmony; advising t • motto make an issue now but waitfr a Letter time ; and invited the ladies to come to our county Fair in October and bring their babies. The length of this article will not per mit me to do justice to Jude Jennings' effort. Suffice it to say, that he dwelt with considerable force iu support ot Greeley, on the main point at issue in the coming contest Itetween Greeley and Grant, viz State Rights, or as some cull it, the local rights of Self-Government, vs. Militauy Despotism. This, in our opinion is the real issue, and should be the Democratic war cry ot the campaign. No straight- out Democrat can combat the arguments on that line. The history of all govern ments I lorn the Inundation until the pres ent time, bui too clearly prove that the contest lias always been between Repub licanism and centralism. Judge Jen nings closed by urging organization and harmony. At the close, Mr. Speer invited all pres ent to a Barbecue to be given near Athens, on the 21st of September, and extended the invitation through them to all the county. The addresses being over, and all being happier and better satisfied than when they came, dispersed to their several homes, happy no doubt in the thought that they had done something toward conciliation. J. O. F. Political Notes. J. R. Cravens, the Grant candid- ate for Lieut. Gov. of Indiana, is out for Greeley. There are 8,000 colored voters members of Gr.iely and Brown clubs in the State of Maryland. Ex-Gov. Stone of Iowa nnnouns ces his intention to support Greeley. His influence will be felt. Judge James J. Winans of Xenia, Ohio, a Republican member of the last Congress, is now the Greeley Republican candidate in the Davton District. Emory Speer Esq. W. L.

Wc could not give an account of the Barbecue without first paying this deserved tribute to a portion of our coun ty people, who, it is known have widely differed with us in some of our local mat ters. The place selected was a beautiful oak grove, situated in front of Mr. Seaborn Davenport's residence, and near Jennings’ mill, six miles Irom Athens. The place is in every way well thud lor such gath erings, and tlie Committee of Arrange ments exhibited iu lu:s, ,i» t., met every other necessary preparaim;:, that kind care for others, so necessary the success of a barbecue. We must not omit to men tion that the natural loveliness of the I place was greatly cnhaiiceu liy the pres- 1 cnee ol a large number of ladies front dil- I ferent sections of the county, ready, as j they ever are, to contribute their quota ; to the enjoyment ot others. !

Jennings. All were heartily in support of Mr. Greeley. All made ex cellent speeches, evincing mature thought on our national, State and county affairs. Permit me to notice a lew of the main points, which at this time are of interest to our people. Mr. Speer was introduced by Mr- C. W. , Reynolus, who in a clear and forcible Ven Was appointed I manner, presented the claims ot Air. loot, twenty-five delegates to j Greeley to the suffrages of the people. Ill., reveals the fact that 751 are for Greeley, 4 for Grant, anu 14 doubtful. Sixty Republican papers which supported Grant in 1868, now advocate the election of Greeley. Two-thirds of the independent press of the country now advocate the election of Greeley and Brown. Tlie Chicago Tribune says: We count more than 100 m imbtrs ar.d ex members of Congress who have up to this time acted with the Republican par ty and who arc now for Greeley’s elec tion. II. Thoreson, of Nortlifield, tbe wealthiest Scandinavian merchant in Minnesota, aud a life-long Republican, has declared lor Greeley. The Journal of Commerce, in New York, says the use of the postal fa cilities to mail Radical campaign matter over the country, and the devotion ot the postmasters to this business—in Grant’s interest—to the neglect of their proper duties, is deranging the whole legitimate postofliec business. Newspa per subscribers are complaining of not getting their papers. The fusion ticket of Democrats, Reformers nnd Liberals has been ratified by the State Central Committee of Louis iana. Twcntyasix Republicans of Calds well, N. J., have organized aGreeley and Brown club. One hundred and seventy.stwo Republicans of Port Jervis, N. Y., have issued n call for the organiz.ation of a Greeley and Brown club on the 2otli instant. Fortysfwo Republicans of Muskes gon, Mich., have issued a call for the or ganization of a Greeley and Brown club. One hundred and fifty Liberal Republicans of Berrion county, Mich., call a convention at Berrion on thc l'Jth inst. Eighty Republicans of Ilonesdale- Pa., have signed a call for a meeting to organize a Greeley club. The San Francisco Examiner says: ‘Events which have recently trans pired, justify the belief that thc Conser- vaties will carry California by a handsome majority for Greeley. to IS to 12'. to li to 15 to 35 to 30 to 40 Dry floods..—Prints, •• 10 Delaines, “ 25 lUVUed Shirting, “ 10 4* Bed Ticking, “ 20 ProVlsions.—Flour, Fancy, per bbL. 12 00 Family, " 11 00 to Superfine “ v oo to Corn *. —per bush. 1 15 to 1 2t» Peas “ l 50 to Meai •* 1 20 to Wheat “ 1 50 to Bacon, hog round, per lb. - to — ** sides, •* — to 14 ** shoulders, “ - to 11 “ clear bulk sides. - to 12 “ “ 44 shoulders, - to - Lari “ 13 to 15 Chickens, grown, 25ct Frying 20 to — Kggs, per iloz. 20 to 25 Butter j»er lb. 20 to Tobarco—Common •• 50 to 60 Medium “ 75 to M) Fine 44 1 oo to 1 2'» .Smoking “ 50 to .SO Snuff. 44 90 to 1 00 Cigars, Am per 100035 00 to?5 00 * 4 Aavana.... “ 75 0o Ammunition—Powder per lb. .'Shot 44 12 Lead “ 12 Cups per box, 10 Womlen Ware.—Painted Buckets, doz 3 50 to 4 00 Cedar ** 4 * 12 »*> i«>\5 00 Sieves, 44 3 50 to 4 00 Liquor*.-—C-oru Whisky,... per gal. 3 00 to Peach Brandv " 2 00 to 3 00 Apple 44 44 2 50 to 3 00 Holland Gin 44 7 00 to 8 00 Bourbon Whiskey, 44 3 00 to 7 00 Wines *.. *• 3 0J to 7 tXJ Groceries.—Sugar, Crushed per lb.

History proved that uicn and govern ments are constantly undergoing change —thut the issue between Greeley and Grant was the only one before the peo ple—military despotism on one hand, and local self government on the other. He presented, the importance of the movement in our State and Congressional elections, nnd finally wound up for Mr. Greeley by tearing >rhu mask from the ‘•straight-out” movement, by showing the radical hand iu tiie matter, lull oi the people’s money, aud black with cor ruption. These are a few of Mr. Speer’s points, but perhaps not in the order in which they were presented. We do not think there was one on the ground op posed to Greeley when he got through. Mr. Speer then dwelt ut some length on our county d.tl'ereuces; said he knew he was treading on dangerous ground , but he was in sympathy with them in their effort to get a new county, nnd had come in a conciliatory spirit; told them that tlie people of Athens were in sym pathy with them, as evinced by thc elec tion of Hr. Durham, who was a new coun ty man: that the Legislature was op posed to making new counties : urgeij the impolicy ..f ir. iLing an issue ot this question at this time, and stirring up ac tive opposition when it was passive now; showed that disorganization would defeat the end iu view; that the Legislature would be Democratic, and tiie hopes of the friends ot the new county movement could or.lv be centered in Democratic suc cess. He* closed by urging conciliation, amt p omised them that as tie w as pledged to the movement, he would <io all he could for them ut any time they wished his services. Dr. Frank Jackson followed in a happy effort, depricating the evils ot prejudice and warned them of disorganization- heir duty was to hold aloft ther banner if principles, and not bury it beneath the ruins of a dead issue. Dr. Henry Carlton was called out.— Said he would not make a speech, but would talk a little to them ; but he made an interesting speech. He urged the support of Greeley, and said that Gree ley might be a bitter pill to swallow, but sometimes the most neauseus dose was necessary to the health of the patient.— t» wonderful Depot, s Gold at., n.
