Hudson’s speech st the Opera House, Thursday night, in speaking of Mr. Murray’s announcement of his candidacy, he was generally understood by those present to say that “it ;was published in the RgcoBDEn.a paper of insignificant circulation, and ns a consequence not one in five hun dred of the people of the district had an opportunity of rending it.” Mr. Hudson hearing that such was the understanding of the audience, requests us to say for him that he bad no idea of characterizing the Reoobdkh as a paper of Insignifi cant circulation, knowing that it has as large, if not larger, circula tion as any paper published in the district; that he was referring to the -Montezuma Record, a copy of which he held in his hand, and if ho used the word Recorder at all in that connection it was a slip of the tongue. He desires to make this correction as public as bis speech, so that no one may attrib ute to him sentiments lie does not hold. Senatorial Discuwion. The discussion, Ttmrsday night, at the Opera House, between Hons. J. N. Hudson and W. D. Mnrray was largely attended, and both speakers were frequently and loudly applauded. The gentlemen in search oi information, who pro posed to interrogate the speakers were incontinently Bat down upon by the audience, who seemed to think that two speakers tor one meeting was enough. From the amount of noise made, the audience may be set down on as one of the most enthusiastic that has lieen held in Americus for a long time. Not being present, we arc unable to give a report ol the speeches, but lYoni the reports given by tbe respective adherents of both can didales, we are led to believe that Messrs. Hudson and Murray each made scores of converts. mittce of the Republican party, for Sumter county, asking tlml he and two or three others might be per mitted to.be present at a meeting held by the Republicans of the county, and to be allowed to dis cuss matters pertaining to the in terest of the voters of the entire district. Now this letter and the object of the parties who Mr. Wooten, this organized Democrat, wished to carry with him to this Republi can meeting was intended only to bid lor the Republican vote of tbe county lor Mr. Hudson. What othur purpose could these organ ized Democrats have had at a Re publican mooting in the night time? It was so understood by all who knew of it, and was so understood by the meeting. The Republican meeting to use a slang phrase, “Sat down upon it.” Now does it not seem in ill grace for these same parties to attempt to lash unto him voters who have tho manhood to vote as they think right, and who will not be ied about by ring-masters to suit their purpose? We respectfully submit, has the day not passed when tbe intelligent votera of the country will permit themselves to lie intim idated by any sucli political clap trap. We think so, and so believe the voters of this Senatorial Dis trict will decide on next Wednes day. For the fact herein set forth we vouch, and dare Mr. Wooten or his Iriends to deny it, and the letter will bo produced. Respectfully, Murrayitk.
