The Apollo HALL Meeting,


On Saturday night has given new strength
and cheer to the anti-Lecompton cause, and
alarmed the adherents of the Executive. 1t
was the first of a series that are to follow
which will bring here some of the best Ger
man orators in the State. The speech Of
Mr.. Seidensticker, editor of the indianapolis
Voiksblatt, the Oldest German paper in the
State, on Saturday evening, is highly COM
mended by those who heard it AID are ia
miliar with the German, as excellent in
matter; and we know the manner was most
happy. MIR. Schmuck, of the Evansville
VoiksbOts, made an effective speech which
was well received, and with repeated ap-
plausc, by the meeting. But Mr.; Bischop is
par excellence the German orator of this dis
trict. He is earnest, full Of facts, arguments
tive, sarcastic and witty. He is always a
favorite speaker. Tomorrow We viii en-
deayor to give synopsis Of the speeches
The following are the resolutions rassed by
the meeting. .-a - II
Resolred, That we declare every attempt
to violate heprinciple, accordng-to which
the majority rule, and the will of the people
is always and everywhere supreme-as high
treason, and we will most decidedly resist
every such attempt.
Resoired, That Buchanan's Kansas policy
deserves the most vehement ccnsure, IN |
that his endeavors to force constitution on
the people of Kansas, which they condemn
ed with an overwhelming majority, must be
looked upon as a criminal attempt.

con 'empt for all who aided and abetted in
the attainment of that object.

|" English Compromise" as the law of the
land, we do not approve its principles, as it
is partial and unjust.
Resoired, That, wherever VIC find Lecomp-
tonism-that political system which is based
on fraud and deception--we will fight it to
the last, and that we declare war against all
wire working till its utter determination,
and that we therefore most solcmnly abjure
all convention humbugs, which only tend
to suppress the popular will.
Resoired, That we will try to defeat the
election of w. +. Niblack, the Lecomptonite,
and plant tool in the hands of Bright, and

office holder clique, that on the other hand

our choice.
Resoired, That we declare the nominee
of the Blairsville Convention, James NJ
