THE REPUBLICAN MEETING ON SATURDAY.<br /><br />The Republicans met in county convention in Raymond on Saturday last for the purpose of speechifying and appointing delegates to represent Hinds county in their approaching State convention, which is to appoint delegates to the National Convention for the nomination of Grant for the Presidency. Hon. J. S. Morris, Hon. <a href="http://msstate-exhibits.libraryhost.com/exhibits/show/legislators/james-d--lynch">Jas. Lynch</a>, Hon. Sim. Jones, J. L. Lake, Esq., J. M. Coats, Esq., A. N. Kimball, Esq., and many other distinguished men of the party from Jackson, white and colored, were present on the occasion. Hon. <a href="http://msstate-exhibits.libraryhost.com/exhibits/show/legislators/charles-caldwell--hinds-county">C. Caldwell</a> was president, and J. M. Chilton, Esq., acted as secretary. Several speeches were made, all of them laudatory of Grant, and of the Radical party and particularly of the colored wing of that party. The appointment of delegates was the hardest nut to crack that was presented on the occasion, and the Convention was engaged at least five mortal hours in that operation. There were evidently several "axes to grind," each having some favor on the floor, but we could make no satisfactory discoveries beyond this that the Hon. <a href="http://msstate-exhibits.libraryhost.com/exhibits/show/legislators/james-d--lynch">James Lynch</a> would not reject a nomination for Congress in this district. Every man in the meeting wishing to be a delegate to the State Convention, and each of the half dozen little rings represented wishing to get the advantage, combined to make it the most inharmonious, turbulent, and riprorious deliberative assembly that we ever witnessed, not even excepting the riotous meetings of the Raymond Republican club last summer and fall. Hon. <a href="http://msstate-exhibits.libraryhost.com/exhibits/show/legislators/charles-caldwell--hinds-county">C. Caldwell</a>, Hon. Sim Jones, Hon. J. S. Morris, and others equally skilled in commanding men, occupied the chair at different times, but all were equally insufficient for this occasion. One hundred lunatics let loose, and then stirred up with a long pole with branches of the nettle-weed attached, could not have been more unmanageable and boisterous than was this meeting. One thing we can say to its credit, however, which is that on two or three occasions, Judge Morris succeeded in calming the storm by assuring the convention that the police were at the door with the riot act in their hands, and would, if order was not instantly restored, arrest every man in the meeting, and carry them all to the calaboose. This announcement would bring instant quiet; but in five minutes the same old scene would burst forth in all its magnificent splendor.<br /><br />The following, we believe, is a correct list of the delegates appointed to represent the county in the State Convention: J. S. Morris, <a href="http://msstate-exhibits.libraryhost.com/exhibits/show/legislators/james-d--lynch">James Lynch</a>, J. L. Lake, <a href="http://msstate-exhibits.libraryhost.com/exhibits/show/legislators/james-a--shorter--jr---hinds-c">J. A. Shorter</a>, W. H. Harvey, <a href="http://msstate-exhibits.libraryhost.com/exhibits/show/legislators/william-johnson--hinds-county-">Wm. Johnston</a>, G. W. Fisher, <a href="http://msstate-exhibits.libraryhost.com/exhibits/show/legislators/charles-caldwell--hinds-county">Charles Caldwell</a>. Four from the city of Jackson, and four from the remainder of the county.

TOUGALOO UNIVERSITY<br /><br />A number of gentlemen, consisting of Dr. Crigler, chairman of the Senate committee for the purpose, Senators Hamilton and Roane, several members of the House, and Mr. Wm. Lemly, of our city, visited the colored University at Tougaloo and found everything in excellent working order, several examinations were held with creditable results, and those in charge seemed to be doing their full duty. From all we can learn the institution is doing a great deal of good for the black race. One of its graduates is now in the legislature from this county, Hon. <a href="http://msstate-exhibits.libraryhost.com/exhibits/show/legislators/james-a--shorter--jr---hinds-c">J. A. Shorter</a>.

TERRY, MISS., Oct. 29 - The barbecue and speaking at Dry Grove today was quite a success. Maj. Barksdale and <a href="http://msstate-exhibits.libraryhost.com/exhibits/show/legislators/james-a--shorter--jr---hinds-c">J. A. Shorter</a>, candidate for the Legislature, made able and telling speeches to quite a large crowd of colored people. The prospects look quite favorable for the Democratic ticket, both county and State.

The Fusion party are using the colored people as their tools. They try to get all their votes and give them nothing in return. We are glad to see that colored men of ability like Hon. <a href="http://msstate-exhibits.libraryhost.com/exhibits/show/legislators/james-a--shorter--jr---hinds-c">J. A. Shorter</a>, are smart enough to see which way the wind is blowing.

Affray at Dry Grove. <br /><br />We learn that <a href="http://msstate-exhibits.libraryhost.com/exhibits/show/legislators/james-a--shorter--jr---hinds-c">J. A. Shorter</a>, a colored man, was assaulted and severely beaten, Wednesday, at Dry Grove, by Wm. Miller, a white man, without just cause or provocation. Miller, we learn, is a Greenbacker and a very desperate character, and <a href="http://msstate-exhibits.libraryhost.com/exhibits/show/legislators/james-a--shorter--jr---hinds-c">Shorter</a> a Republican, it matters not, however, to what political parties the men belonged; if Miller was in the wrong he should be punished and made to know that his promiscuous way of shooting and knocking every one that does not hold to his opinions, will not be tolerated.
