Hon. David l.. Seymour being present, according 10
invitation spoke it'll his usual clearness and aoiiy
In commencing, he made neat and appropriate adj
dress TO bis constituents 10 whose interests he mas
rendered eminent services during the time he has
had the honor TO represent them in Congress lie
was replied to by enthusiastic applause showing
that they heartily approved of the course he had Pur
sued in the iurherance Of these interests at the same
time giving him full of their determination
to continue him in the place he had hlled win SC
much ability and satisfaction to them The remain
der of his speech marked with great clearness
and candor and the profound attention with which II
was listened to, clearly indicated what a deep i'm
preston the plain truths be uttering were max
ing on the conscience and understanding of his au

Mr.. Seymour's great popularity, and the Jealous
activity of his friends render certain triumph over
all the base Vaccinations and foul conspracies of his
political opponents, who have nominated man solely
with view to entrap the votes of party that has
recently arisen out OF things not of public nature,
and this plan of theirs TO defeat the Democratic can

with disgrace nthe political grave that awaits them

storm of rain which lasted during Thursday and

| showers and by a cold west wind that would have
done justice to January day. the tura Satur-
day was great beyond expectation, and eyinces the
indomitabfe character OF the Democracy Of Seneca.
Every town in the county was represented and res
pectabe delegations came in on the cars from Mon
roe, Ontario, and Cayuga, though the free barbecue
at Syracuse, and the mass meeting at Scipo, the
same day, drew off most of the Cayugas. The ar
| rangemens of The day were very perfect, and much
praise is due to Messrs f. S. Latham, J. Benham,

Of martial music. The democratic boys were also on
hand with a four horse team and fine streamer.-
About noon, The Northern procession came into the
village, and with their numerous flags, &C., made
fine and imposing appearance. Soon after came the
West Fayelte and Waterloo Democrats, headed b,
their noble Glee Club and little in the rear a spir
tied delegation from Geneva, all bearing original de
wees Lastly cane the delegation from the Soutt
towns, with their big twenty horse wagons and ban
ners that pierced the cloads all preceded by the Co
noga Band. Fayette did noby on this occasion, a
it always does.
The meeting, consisting Of several thousands, con
vened in young Hickory Grove where suitab,
preparations had been made and called to orde

most clear and mastery manner the great questions

and on the politics of this State His remarks eync
ed the great powers OF hs mind, and told efeotual,

me u,bered by the Democracy Of Seneca.
On the whole, the meeting passed of most nobly
and though At may not have been than a quar-
as large II would have been had the weather beei
only ordinarily favorable, yet we are warranted IL
saying more enthusiastic meeting, or one at whici
more voters OF our own county we're present, ha
never been held by any party between the Csyug
and S,necs Lakes.
We almost forgot to mention that The Democrat
breeze which came 10y on Saturday morning, made
general smash Of the poles OF ash that had erect
ed with so much labor and expense by The Clay coon
Of our village. Not one was left standing From
the big hsh rod in the Park to the bean pole over
nelghbor Carriers, hey were all blown down Will
not a single hickory bent before the blast. Whebe
there Is any thing omlnous IN this general king o

British flag was struck at YORKTOWN, we leave cssu

peculiar, and If not gratifying TO the Democrat,
certainly was most annoying TO the poor ooons, VII
