was of moderate size, but orderly and
attentive. Stanford briefly but cogent
ly presented his reasons for aGherng to
the Republican nominations,and discuss
ed national politics at some length.
Stanford is man of practical good
sense. His logic will tell where his
eloquence fails. In this canvass neither

State and local issues entirely alone and
confined himself exclusively to national
politics which he handled in manner

were listened to respectfully and occa-

remarks James Churchman Esq, was
