Mr. r. ". T. Hunter or Sub Treasury Hhig at home
Our Congressman, Mr.. Hunter, addressed the people
Of King & Queen county, Monday, the 10Th inst, it
being Court day. IL was a fine opportunity for ncu
eating sound political truths, and the display Of talent
learning and ability. The assembly was large and very
intelligent but cannot say that Mr. Hunter made the
best Of it. This gentleman is evidently under
species Of duress-He spoke ,midy, coaxngly, and in
the strain of apology. He evinced in my Judgment
the feeling of ,cksb responsibility and he has permit
ted this subdung sensation to curb his spirit and chain
his tongue. | much wonder at it, as Mr. Hunter ought
now be able TO maintain his ground before the people,
if His chances of improvement have atery been
great, and suppose they have not been lost hun
The progress Of men Of lofty destiny TO the SUNNI, Of
their fame has invariably been accelerated by The force
of opPosilion-Thefe is always an inspiration at hand,
which seems their hearts like invisible spirit from
the other word-The very situation and circumstances
