again exhausted his billingsgate upon Mr..
Madison. 1t was favourite them with the
opposition in those days, to denounce the
war of 1912 as "Jim Madisons war;
Mr.. ?. differs with Mr.. Imboden as to
the responsibility for the existing slavery
agitation, He says all the parties are partly
responsible, some in greater degree than
others. lie also differed with Mr.. Imboden
about the Missouri Compromise. He says
it fell like ire-bell upon the year at night,
IN the South. 1t seems he did not regard it
as panacea for all our ills, as Mr.. I. does.
MIR. T. also asserted that no President
retired with more credit than Fillmore.
Why was it then that the Wing party was
deserted and denounced by the X. n party
as corrupt If MIR. Fillmore had conduct
ed his administration Washington-lke, it
was certainly very uncalled for occasion to
destroy the Wing party, and charge it with
corruption. He said he did not intended to
Sing psalms to the dead horse intellect of the
Democracy AS soon as ne commenced his
abuse upon the Democratic party he seemed
to launch into his true element. Business
compelled us to leave before he concluded.
We learn however that he INDUCED in violent
abuse Of Mr.. Buchanan and the Democratic
party.
Reader, what do you Think would become
ofyour country now, if it were not for your
Democratic President and Senate who are
struggling to save the country from the mad
ness Of those elected to Congress by the
Know Nothings and abolitionsts ? This
question answers the whole tyrade of abuse,
and showers the real friends of the country,
and conseryators of the public peace.
After Mr.. P. concluded, the meeting ad-
journed to 2 o'clock, when Mr. Magruder, of
Alberemarlo delivered an address While
we were present he INDUCED in nothing but
denunciation of Mr.. Buchanan and stale an
ecdotes. He said Mr.. B. has been ever
changing to catch the popular breeze, and
that his history is in conflict with every prin-
ciple in the Cincinnati platform. How de-
void of shame must Mr.. Magruder be, that
he could charge Mr. B. with being turn
coat, when he acknowledged himself to be a
renegade from the wing party Of but, few
| years old.
Mr.. Magruder has mistaken the intelli-
gence of our people. He probably was not
aware that the leaders of his party have
time and again acknowledged Mr.. B. to be
one of the greatest statesman of the land,
that he is the best nominee the party could
have presented and expressed willingness
to support him zealously if Mr.. Fillmore did
not except.
! The meeting, after the conclusion of this
speech, adjourned until Friday, with the
promise that they should hear the great
head him or die" j. NJ Bolts.
The people fthis county know Mr.. Bolts
too we'll to be "swerved'' by him.
AT light their was poor attempt at n
torchlight procession, the only marked re-
suit of which was, the severe burning of a
little boy Of Mr.. H. Il. Brien, who had
gone to physician for medicine for sick
sister. This of course was accidental, but
only proves the folly of such turbulent at
tempts at display. The whole affair has
fallen far short Of the programme and is lie
last giration of expiring Sam.
