Democratic Meeting.

Beriah Brown addressed small au-
dience at the Court House last evening.
We must say we were disappointed as
to his talents as public speaker; he was
laundering and incoherent in his re.
marks to such an extent as to make it
painful to listen, and sometimes hardly
possible to know what he was endeav.
oring to talk about. He made a feeble
effort to prove that the democratic par
ty was not pro-slayery party-that the
bred Scott decision was in harmony
with squatter sovereignty-that squatter
sovereignty meant the same thing north
and south, DC. In fact the whole of his
remarks consisted in a series of efforts
to show that the democratic party is no.
what every intelligent and honest mar
knows it to be; and this may explain in
a measure the reason why his speech was
not more effective. He has got "a hard
road to travel" There is no material
for eloquence in the principles of sham
democracy. If Mr. Brown could can
yass every town in this congressional
district, we should feel sure Of repub
lican triumph even were no republican
speeches made.

a view to discharging the duties of Reg
lister, until after the election.
ITe0sarer.-Rev. John Gridley. This
nomination is the best on the ticket
with perhaps the exception of Patrick
Danaher. Brother Gridley has been re
portedon the democratic anxious seat foI
long time; nevertheless, it was hoped
that after a prayertul consideration, il
the premises, he would see it his duty t,
fall into the ranks of freedom. 1t i
hoped brother Gridley will receive tn
hearty cordial and united support ofth
