Judge WILMoT spoke first, in a plain,
candid, but feeling manner, that CON-
manded universal acceptance. A song
from the Lewisburg Glee Club was fol-
lowed by mastery speech from Hon.
JOHN c. KUNKEL, which was applauded
to the echo. 1t was announced that Mr..
Burlingame was unable to attend, being
worn out by speaking; but had "sent a
hand " in his place worthy Of himself
Hon. CHARLES A. PHELPS, Speaker OF
the House of Representatives of Massa-
chusetts, who followed in series Of witty,
stirring, aud eloquent remarks, that raised
still higher the enthusiasm Of the audi
ence. The three speakers we're received
with the best Of attention, and honored
by bOquets Of flowers from the very large
number of ladies in attendance. TIE sun
was do'on, yet the audience fingered al
most uubroken, and cries of ego on! go
on !" showed how deep the interest felt in
the great cause SO ably, SO honorably, aud
so eloquently handled by the speakers
Altogether, We have heard many say that
it was the most remarkable outdoor polit-
ical meeting they had ever witnessed.
No sooner was supper despatched, than
a crowd gathered at the Third St. Liberty
Pole, to hear more Of "the same sort"
Mr.. w. Ii. KNAPP, of Williamsport,
odened the evenings entertainment by a
speech worthy of the occasion, and which
won universal applause. nr. Knapp is
entered for the campaign and will do the
best service. He was followed by Mr..
PHELPS, again; Hon. JOSEPH CASEY I;
JAMES AIKEN Mr.KUNKEL, again; and
Rev. JOSHUA KELLY, being found in the
crowd,w compelled to tell his old neigh
bors how he stood-he was heart and soul
for Freedom and Fremont. Songs from
the Glee Club intermingled, and tde er-
lerly and good kumored assemblage vas
9th to disperse, after 10 o'clock.
OF the SIX speakers positively prom
sed by the Buchanan party, ONE only
,ame, and NO ONE Of the FIVE "expecteG"
Of the THREE promised by the Fremont
party, one only was prevented from COM
ng, and he sent as efficient substitute
md We had four good speakers extra.
We had almost forgotten TO mention the
superior number of ornaments which the
of the Tuesday meeting brsught out
IN Wednesday, almost entirely from. the efforts
Of the ladies and the young men. There were
20 or 25 flags and banners adorned in various
ways, stretched across the streets; rs or 100
smaller house flags and banners; large num-
Der of wreaths and devices streamers on tel
egraph posts and the spire of the unfinished
church steeple; and hand flags, banners and
badges by the hundreds in the service Of the
rising generation. Assuredly, it was a day
which for show and animation will long be
accidents were few, and drunk
,nness almost unobservable; and alioge her,
,un SIDE is ABrSDANrLY SATISFIED, s,TIsrILB
WITH rHENsELyL Ls, THEIR sPLAEERS,ASD THEIR
TIsITERs.
