The Meeting on Meuaay.

Il commenced raining very early in the
morning and continued to rain until alter 10
o'clock. Spite Of this, when the meeting was
called we were surprised to find very res
pectabIe audience and individuals from livery
part Of the County, who listened with deep and
unusual attention to the address Of Gen. Miles.
We were sorry to find the General quite indie
posed, having had q chill ana the consequent
fever being then on him, but bis devotion to
the good cause would not allow him to be 81
lent. He spoke for nearly two houn-his
speech was more argumentstive, more earnest
and thoughtful than we have been accustomed
to hear in mere party csmpaigns, although the
General laid in some OF lis teihag anecdotes
that seemed as effeetusl a. Bragg's grape.
Thus far, both in speeches and 10 papers, the
friends Of Taylor seem 10 be impressed with
his own spirit; q quiet and deep esrnss,ness
that wishes for no momentary enthusiasm, but
confident OF the result-never despsiring and
sever TO surrender. We shall not ssdersks 10
report the speech, Tor We sbhor this practice Of
reporting aid sending abroad the speech Of On
eIeetsr. which he has prepared Tor his own use
ssd thus compelling him 20 repes, ~hss every
one has read OF undergo The lsbsr Of prePsriss
. new one. Il wssreceived with much sppro-
bation and was calculated 10 make men think
we know that il has already had good eject
on some. ny the way. we ~ish people wosld'ns
bring geese into such Places. or IL they Do, that
they would Keep them still. We eersinly
heard one there, for We knev the voice.
