services they have so constantly traduced-is
indeed what the Wing press has always claimed
him to be not merely a man of eminent talents
and the embodiment of Wing principles, but a
great statesman, of pure and exalted purpose,
and every way worthy of the admiration OF any
party. Whole columns of the purest sympa-
thies, are bestowed upon him on account of the
wrong and shameful desertion, by the Wing par
ty, of such a man in his old age.
The crocodiieS weep, that 1.-THE noblest Ro-
man Of them ALL should be showed aside to make
room for a military a%spirant. who, they contend,
is unworthy even to uuloose the ~latclets Of
the shoes Of the great and pure statesmen,
whose many virtues they have so recently dis
covered.
We congratulate our democratic brethren on
this their partial conversion. 1t is t better to dis
cover truth hEe than TO be blind to it always
aad we thank them, that they have proved
how false and malicious have been their abuse
of the man, whom the Wings have sustained so
long, and whom they have not ceased to admire,
and would still delight to honor.
Another fact Of which they have lately become
conscious, is, that Martin Van Buren, is Just
what the Wing papers have always represented
him C. lie who has been almost from boy
hood tie pet Of his party, is fallen so low that
bu, few Of his former followers can stoop to DO
him honor. The man upon whom the mantle
Of the great idol OF democracy, Gen. Jackson,
had fallen,-the " favorite SON. not only of New
York, but of all Locofocodom-i now, for sooth,
a"mere political jugglcr'-a demagogue'-
n 'cunGing fox" the man who, of all our pub
lie men, owes his elevation the least to merit,
the most to party organization" "He always
was say these new converts to truth, "a North
ern man with Southern principles" He always
was g ready to yield himself to any course tor
the purpose of self elevation"
These are old truths, and you have but to ex-
anime the files Of any Wing paper to see how
streuuously they have always been insisted on
or the columns OF any L~ocofoco journal, TO see
how fatty they have been denied and how fierce
ly they have been rcpelled. until their old pet
lent himself to a new organization, to play again
the same game as of old.
Again we congratulate our friends OF the de-
mocracy, upon the opening of their eyes to these
truths, and thank them anew for this unwilling
eridence to the truthtuiness Of the Wig jour
mails.
We headed our article with the word fun; but
there is mingled with the feeling with which
we regard this subject, something deeper than
fun. There is a painfulness in looking at such

WEDNESDAY EVENING, JULY 10, 1915
CASS' TWO LIVES.

We beg leave to call the attention Of our read
ers to the following letter of Mr.. McCHEw,
which, according to the Sentinel, ''explains the
matter" of the two lives Of Cass. The letter
was written in reply 70 a request from Hon. j.
ID. Bright Of the Senate, for information con-
corning the printing, at the Globe Office, of DIFF
ferent editions of the life of Cas-" each edi.
ton differing from the other, and designed for
circulation in different sections of the Union"
The letter of Mr.. McCyEw does not touch the
matter in question at all. 1t acknowledges no
difference in the 'two lives save the letter Of
Gen. jackson to Mr.. Cass, which was not pub
lished in the March edition and was published
in the June edition. This letter amounts to a
commentator, by Gen. Jackson, of Cass' 'pat-
ting Louis Philippe on the back" and nothing
more. The wonderful value of this letter of
Gen Jackson, was not discovered until %, 900
copies, out Of an edition Of 10000. had been dis
posed of. Only one hundrci copies ''were thrown
under the counter"
The question at issue is, have two editions Of
" the Life and public services of Gen. Lewis
C'9o, III OHeUl NIHCH ne Is Te1TeeeIlel as OtlllH
opposed to the "NViltnot Proviso,'' aud in lieu Of
which in the other is substituted his remarks in
the Senate on the French revolution, been
published at the Globe office, and circulated in
different sections of the Union? This we as
serted to be the fact and we relssert that both
these lives are in our possession, and open to in
s~pection. Upon this issue the letter Of Mr..
McCYEw is silent. Nothing could be said
McCNEw says 'there have not been at any one
time, two editions for sale at this office" No one
pretended that at The some time two editions
were for sale. The fact is, and facts speak
louder than words, that two lives of Cass have
been published differing essentially in regard to
the expression of Cass' views on Slavery.-one
bearing date, March lS4S," the other " June
lSl8," both from the "Globe Office, Jackson
Hall, Washington, d. C." Both were printed
from the same type, as the same typographical
errors occur in both.
The letter of McCnew does not satisfy us
nor does it, as the Sentinel falsely states, ex.
plain the matter at all.

GREAT WIG RALLY,
Last Eveniny-At the Town Hall.


Speech of len LESLIE CooMBs of Kentucky.
Gen. CooMBs, the eloquent Kentuckian, pass
ing through our village on his return home from
his eastern tour, was induced to stop with us
one day, to enable him to address the Wings Of
this vicinity upon the great issues now before
the country. lIandbills were circulated early
yesterday morning, stating that he would ad-
dress the people, at the Town Hall, at : o'clock
last evening. The announcement brought to-
cether a crowd that more than filled the Hall.
And though the denseness of the crowd was
such as to render the position of the audience,
exceedingly uncomfortable, yet no symptoms Of
uneasiness were manifested during IA Speech Of
more than two hours in length; but on the con-
trary, the constant outbreaks of applause clearly
evinced that this true and gallant Wing of Old
Kentuck," was not thus eloquenily and manful-
ly giving ut'crance to thorough and honest con-
~victions, to those within whose hearts there was
no response. Never did a Speech Of such length
more completely rivet the attention of the hear
ers. All seemed to feel that he spo.e only what
he knem: and to realize that he knee just what
ought to be heard.
His well known personal and political friend
ship for HENRY CLAY, as well as his personal
acquaintance, more or less intimate, with the
several candidates for tho p---:i~.~. --I 49,
Presidency, added TO his great popularity, both
in his own native State and abroad, as an honest,
brave, hi~gl.minded man, served TO clothe his re-
marks with an air Of authenticity, as agreeable
it was convincing.
The meeting was called to order by d. w.
c.. Clarke Esq, upon whose motion the Hon.
Udney II. Penniman, Of Colchester, was called
to the Chair, and Z. E. Kellogg, Esq. of this
village appointed Secretary. The sole object
Of the meeting being to listen to the Speech Of
Gen. CooMBs, no further organization was tho't
necessary. Upon motion, the Chair appointed
the Hon. Harry Bradley, d. w. c. Clarke and
James Cook, Esqs. committee to wait upon Gen.
CooMBs and conduct him TO the Hall.
OF the speech itself it is not enough to say
that it was eloquent, well conceived. apt, effec-
tive. These are but the common compliments
OF a common speech, which the speech Of the
gallant General was not. 1t was unique, per-
feet Understandable, but perfectly also untrans-
atablc-perfectly-exactly un-write-down-able.
That is just what it was, and to report it--why,
you might as well attempt to report a thunder.
storm with its murmurs, cracks and flashes, its
lulis and gusts. 1t is as the General says "a
stump speech is a thing not merely to hear but
to see, and we should not wonder ia witness or
two might be brought who felt this one, We
took a few notes thinking to give a sketch, but
on further examination we find they have not
the Generals signature and we dare not pass
them except to pass them over, and so those OF
our readers who didn't hear and see must peck.

One of the funniest OF the many funny things
which this commencing political campaign has
developed, is the strange fact, that, for once, the
~locofoco press is insisting upon certain truths
which, for many years, they have denied, and
which, for as long "A time, the Wings have pro-
mulgated.
Strange as it may seem, they sometimes tell
plain traths, though for the most par, they are
indebted to the Wing press therefor.
One of the newly discovered truths which
has burst so suddenly upon the great democrat.
ic party, is, that HENRY CLAY, the man against
whom their fiercest assaults have been so long

Communicated.

We were highly gratiiied last evening at the cordi-
al reception, and the satisfaction manifested by our
Wing friends and fellow citizens, towards our dis
tinguishcd guest and kinsman, Gen. Combs, OF Ken
lucky. Aud old Vermont had reason TO be proud
OF her " Nephew" and her bosom to glow with honest
pride, as his warm southe IN feeling did homage to her
cool and steady virtues. Tears sprang to the eyes Of
brave men as he elegantly portrayed the struggle and
bravery OF the old Hero OF Resaca and Buena Vista
What heart there did not respond to the grandeur and
pathos Of his reply to Capt. Bragg's demand for rein
iorcemenisl Worn and faded and cut to pieces, Grip
pied and hemmed in-by superior forces-the brave
old man, whose all was cast on a single die, had no
succor TO send, save the encouragement from his stout
brave old heart, OF :" Gre them a iftie more grape
Capt. Bragg" And when with rapid and mastery
touch, this true hearted son OF Kentucky set forth the
claims and merits OF the Hero OF Iiulls surrender, and
traced his pilgrimage TO the sacred waters OF Jordan,
the Wings had no reason to tear that the arm Of the
champion who espoused their cause, was too feeble to
maintain il, or that he would mar ii by a violation OF
the laws OF kindness or truth. And while we regretted
ihediscourtesy that interrupted his %eloquence by the in
PRODUCTION oiulira and sectional topics, we admired the
adroi.ness aud courtesy OF his replies-and heartily
wish him God Speed in his endeayors to advance the
cause SO near our hearts,
