DEAR SIN Seeing that you have had occasion to al
Jude to the famous bicolored meeting held in this place
last week. am reminded that ought 10 have given you
some account OF il before thought OF doing so but
on the whole, concluded il not of sufficient import
snce TO give you the trouble of reading letter
The sfair excited no interest whatever here, beyond
the very few aboltonists that we have among US, and
looked upon by nineteen twenielhs OF our citizens,
and by full half Of those who attended the meeting with
aid moi 20 near it myself. but am told there was at
no time present from five to six hundred persons
and that probably about hundred of these resided out
OF the village A show Of almost any kind in such a
place as this will call together more people
The resolutions understand, are exceedingly violent
and incendiary, but not more than harmless in this
community Public opinion s no more to be sought for
in, influenced by, the action OF such meeting than
by the opinions and action OF DIR Smith at home and
ceedings OF these mischevous fanatics and fit were
not for giving them importance would overwhem them
with an oatburst OF public sentiment BY letting them
alone their numbers are diminishing and am persuade .
if the Compromise bill could have been passed. or if the
measures embraced in it be got through, there
will be an end OF this cant
There may be persons al the North who will steal
groes but there would not be, and there is not at
the North anything deserving the Of public opn
ion that will justify or protect the thief
II is mistake to suppose that Chaplin has sympathi
zers here among the people al large OF any considerable
proportion of them and have the slightest doubt
that he would be convicted by jury summoned in the
Ordinary way III county, upon IdCtS we nave

So far as / am judge there is not aboonism enough
in this State TO dscolo the broad stream of public sen
ment but there s among the intelligent and substantial
men of both parties strong desire TO have these rta
ting questions settled. Some of course, will desire to
have them settled in such way to increase their po
litical capital but think generally there is spirit Of
patriotism abroad that looks dsdainfuy upon such cal
culations.
Permit me to say that in my judgment, the country is
greatly indebted 70 your efforts for encouraging and
strengthening this feeling OF patriotism. II will carry us
through, cannot doubt
