July 10th, 1857.
EDErOAs ArPEkls This has been indeed a
triumphant day Tor the Democracy. Messrs.
Bate and LOonsy, Floating candidates, and
Walker and Douglass for the Senate, addressed
the people here to-day. such a triumph has
hardly It's parallel. The crowd was quite a
large one aud such was TIE interest felt, taat
the infietiOn OF the four speeches was borne
with The most patient attention. MessTs. Bate
and Looney had their discussion frat aud while
the highest compliments were paid 70 the do
quenee Of he American candidate, Mr.. Looney,
the victory was awarded 10 the alike ~eloQueu,
Bate, who has made his mark as one Of the
sblsst, most elective, popular speakers 10 the
stare. His dsciion "a surrl
Ane as to }. Ksor WalSsr, who was an entire
stranger ia these parts, his speech to-day was
an introduction, which at once won for him the
highest favor, aud resulted IN good for the glO-
riOus eauss Of Democracy.
Mr.. Douglass, who has been raised 10 this
county, who has many friends aud enjoys a
high reputation FOR ,aleAts aud popular ability,
had to yield the palm to-day to Mr.. Walker.
Indeed, there is no use to talk about it. Mr..
Walker displayed il the discussion an ability
which stamps him as one OF our strongest men.
A ready debatsr aud a most thorough posted
politician, be adds that Of a fine speaker. The
Democratic party made a most fortunate selee-
tion in his nomination. He Is winning golden
opinions wherever be goes. The writer saw
many here to-day who heard the discussions
at Macon, Oakland aud Hickory Wyths, and
all speak Of the speeches OF Mr.. Walker in the
very highest terms. Depend upon it, Messrs.
Editors, the people Of this county are in sober
earnest as to the present canvass. They are
turning out promptly and listen closely to the
speeches Of the respective candidates. The
American or KnOw-Nothing party, it is true,
seems Indifferent to the result Of the ensuing
election. Still the canvass exerts an attraction.
Many 20 to satisfy themselves as to the fepor-
ted change in the issues. They wonder, when
they hear that no appeal is now made to their
patriotism upon the fearful subject Of PoPery
and Foreigners /; and that the appeal il now for
an opposition to Democracy IN consideration
Of payment in land or its equivalent. The re-
mark was made Gadibly to-day by an old
"AmsTican Whig," while Mr.. Looney was
Hshotsing the Pr0mised land" that " it was all
humbug.D Such a proposition, even if made
s~tacsTely by the John Bsliies, and under proba-
bic circumstances Of success, eonld not fail to
excite disgust and contempt in the minds Of
thinking and honest men.
And how strange does il seem, that after all
the waste Of bresth-sll the fuss and thunder
spent ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS the hordes Of
foreigners trying to "rule America +" and the
danger OF the Catholic religion takiRg posses
sion Of our Protestant churches; the whole
thing has come downt to the poor, miserable pro-
position 10 the people Of Tennessee, that il they
will turn from the path Of Democracy and put
Know-Nothings in power, they shall be paid
for it out Of the National effects. Such an in-
suit TO the good sense as well as the honest
hearts OF the people, is spurned as an offer OF
bribery, and attempt at corruption. The way
Mr.. Walker handles this subject, pleased every
body, and greatly disconnected his able and in
genious competitor. The thing tlI not take
herel The Fayette Democracy is up and on
ward! Put US dOwn as Viet0Ti0Es, for we will
elect Mariee, our modest but intelligent county
candidate, aud the whole ticket viii be carried.
