The Wyandot pioneer. (Upper Sandusky, Ohio) 1853-1868, 1860-07-05

as usual presented the crowd with the
stereotyped apology "that he did not er-
pea to be called on, and that he did not
erpect to make speech" and as the audi'
ence did not ezpect very much Of aspeech
from him, there was nobody very eyre
giously disappointed when, at the expira,
ton Of ten minutes, he also wilted. As
an evidence that the young man is either
not very well posted or else not very hon
est, it is only necessary to say that he an.
pounced that the supporters Of the Ramp
nominee confidently expected to carry
Ohio next fall. This announcement was
so unexpected and SO much more than
the little party looked for that it was
greeted with the most vociferous ap-
plause. The idea Of carrying Ohio had
never entered their heads, and the hearts
Of the poor fellows fairly leaped with joy
at the mere mention Of such an unlocked
for result. The balance Of his ten min
ute effort was composed Of two or three
dirty little illusions which for the sake Of
Johns fair friends, amongst whom he is
quite favorite, we will not mention.
But the richest feature Of the farce was
to come. Some little fellow in the crowd
followed Crawford, and George broke for
the stand with as much confidence depict
ed in his couHtenance as any man would
evince who was really capable Of making
a speech. OF course we need not tel!
our readers that George didn't succeed in
making much Of speecb-tbey all know
that his speech making is abou. like the
fellows tavern keeping out in Indiana
He declared that be was unable 10 find
words to express the "phelinks" that agi-
tated his vest. Gt's wonder his big
"bussum" didn't busD when he heard Of
the result Of the Baltimore Convention.
Well, we remember seeing quite num-

about that time-tbey hadn't much to
say, that's fact-they were completely
Aattened out, and looked as though they
