It's efforts by the appearance OF the Abolition Secees
of the North. The South were then thrown upon the
defense They had to defend their homes and their
firesides aud from that day to this they
have met threats by defiance and have turned deaf

these agitaors the increase in power and strength Of

Loud calls were made for Mr.. Brady, but the CHAIR
announced that Mr.. Brady unable to be present

Calls were then made for Gen. Ward, Mike Walsh

II was announced that Mr.. Vernam was preeent
and would address the meeting.
Mr. vERsAM appeared on the stand, which was fol-
lowed by not a few persons in the audience leaving
the Theater. Mr. Vernam said that tonight com
menced the drama of the campaign. II was divided
into three acs-frst the grand rally; second, the at
tack and conflict and third, the v1otory-a Demo
cratic victory, OF course Cheersl III was singular
fact that all the plays performed at this fheaer ended
inst as the audience wished them TO. He believed that
their great play commenced this night would end just
in tie same way. All the prominent stirring scenes OF
the drama had been and would Do enacted la hn
drama Prince John had been seized with ut IN
carrisge A statue of Martin Van Buren, had been
struck with lightning and the head knocked Oh. Two
leaders of the Opposition party had been struck down
In The streets The star which hung the Seward
and ProLiLilory Law coalition at Albany had suddenly
fallen. TIE boat called Thurl0w Weed had sunk sud
denly in Albany basin. The Democratic party

espe were deceived as to the number OF the National
Democratic party; it was like the Burnham Wood

no leaders, up with the banner Of the Democratic
Church, and the people will flock to It's support We
only want to defeat the proscnptlve KNOWN othngs
end might say the defunct Wings. We can do this
if the Democratic party will come to the work. IL
has been suggested that we need fusion to accom-

they select to carry out their wishes Loud cheersl.
Judge WALKER Of Louisiana was thea introduced,
and was received with loud cheers He characterized
the present political era en- era Of factions rather
than parties In this exigency we could only fall
beck upon the vis medici haur9-of political mala-

Democracy which, when it's leaders had attained their
ends kicked the ladder from under their feet which
elevated them. If their Democracy was that kind
