The First Campaign speech OF Governor
Wise, OF Virginia.

Nokrolh, sep. 81 ievo'
Governor Wise spoke here to night more than four
hours about three thousand persons He argued thai
the politics Of the whole country had been narrowed
down TO single dangerous irsee. First by the joint
policy Of Douglas and Of his present opponents IN
Is54 Second, by the Lecompon policy Of the admins
tration in 1855. Third by the attempt pasevered 10
until the very assemblage of the Charleston Con-
yenton by faction at the South, and especially
in Virginia, to ignore the question OF proseelion.
He denounced squater sovereignty a. short cut TO Oil
the ends Of black repubcanism designated Douglas
threat OF coercion Involving federalism and tory ism,
and regarded Douglass explanations at Jones' Wood and
Baltimore as worse, in this respect, than the Norfolk
speech itself. He exposed the untruta OF Douglas pre-
tence OF having repealed the principle OF the Missouri
Compromise by the Kansas act which repealed the re-
strction north or SO 60 only in the Louisiana Terrific
ry and left II in full force under the acts Of lsi5
and 1850 in other Territories He showed that the Kansas
act itself utterly denies Mr. Douglas theory of Terri
torial sovereignty, and also the nsncery of Douglas
acapondtm decision OF slave code, when Mr. Douglas
has drawn up and voted through slave codes, like
those in the organizing New Mexico and Kaneas than
any other American statesmen living dead. He said
that he would regard Lincoln's election open
declration OF war against the Southern States,
and announced his unwllingness TO submit
TO black republican rule In the event OF such cleo
tion he would first appeal to his State 10 proec.
Southern property and Southern honor, and Virginia
shall refuse he will then appeal successfully to other
Southern States. He urgently recommended that no
State shall wait for the action Of any other State
that shall act promptly for itself He does not pre-
fer secession the remedy. Rather than resort to
secession be would prefer to Southern armed
under State authority to tight for the security and main
tenance Of their rights in the Union. BE concluded his
speech at quarter to one O'Clock.

A NOVEL CASE AT LAw.-Mr. Church, Of
Montville, owned hen. The hen took q
notion to set. Mr.. Church encouraged her
in to the extent Of giving her sixteen eggs
10 commence on. With commendablc in
dustry the hen went to work '.setting.'--
For one week she devoted herself to it
without interrepution.. At the end of q
week Mr.. Tinker's turkey came alo.g that
way, and crowdins the hen of her nest,
took the business Of incubation under her
own wings. Being more "of her muscle"
than the hen, she maintained her position
until brood of chickens stepped out Of the
shells. The turkey then took the chicken.
in tow and returned to her own and Mr..
Tinker's residence. Mr.. Church brought
an account Of trovcr for the chickens, claim
ing them on the ground that his hen laid
the eggs and did the best part of the setting.
The case was tried before Mulford G. Ray.
mond, Esq, on Saturday, Halsey for plain
tiff, Merriam. Of New London, for defence,
and judgment was given for plaintiff to
recover eight cents apiece for the chickens.
