Mr.. whiuhofne, one Of the State electors then ad-
dressed the convention in speech Of considerable
Iength-one Of the best TOO, Of tie whole day.
The committee then, as the great object Of the
meeting announced the name of Hon. Andrew Ew-
ing Of Davidson as District Elector. list Of conn
ty electors was also read, and thea after short
speeches from Mr.. Burch, and Mr.. A. G. Merritt Of
Davidson, the meeting adjourned to meet again
after supper.
Such was this conventionI The Court-house was
pretty well filed, but we believe that at least one
third Of those present was made up Of Opposition
lookers-on and democrats that are opposed to the
Ydneey-moremenL
After supper the crowd again repaired TO the
Court house. and listened to speeches from Mr.. Lock-
hart of Stewart Mr.. Ward of Davidson, Mr.. Mcneil
ly of Dickson, aud some strplings in years from
different localities. The prominent feature of these
aforementioned Solons was their impertinent and
contemplate abuse Of John Bella man, and a
statesman, who serving his country in her high
est councils, when the milk was being wasted that
sustained their pulling babyhOOd. They have no
doubt seen among the rotten fruits of democratic
rule, that to defame and vituperate the wise and
the vrtuou and to pander to the lowest instincts Of
the rabble is the shortest cut to democratic honors
and hence their trade
Thus passed away this feeble attempt to rally the
distracted forces of democracy here and we may
truly feel glad that in the zze of last Saturday we
have seen good beginning of the final overthrow
Of that lcprous plague-Modern Democracy

COMPLETION OF THE RAILROAD BRIDGE.-0n Mon
day afternoon we received from our Railroad friend,
u q. Smith, polite notification that at Al o'clock
the draw-span OF the Cumberland River Bridge
would be @ttrnedn for the first time We repaired
10 the Bridge at the time named and found goodly
number Of people there already and very Gfter
the crowd increased to some two hundred, notwith-
standing no public notice had been given. Some
time was speu, In getting ready for the ttrn and it
was o'clock before the word was given to cut
away the scaiiodng leading from the shore-pier to
the center pier. This having been cleared away,
the leverage was applied that turns the draw-span'
and it commenced its slow, but steady movement
around When the ends were clear of the rest-piers
and the huge and ponderous structure hung, poised
upon the centerpicr every eye in the crowd watch
cd its moving with intense anxiety. Slowly IL con-
tinued to move around like some huge creature Of
life, until its semcircle completed and the ends
of the revolving span touched the ends OF the two
stationary spans, and then the pent-up anxiety Of
the crowd found vent and relief in loud and pro-
ionged huzasl The draw-span did not swing, at
first exactly to its place. the end pieces being about
an uieh and a half too long; but when we consider
that no previous trial of it had been made-that
this was the first time il had been moved-and that
this near approach perfect was all the re-
suit Of scientific calculation it really does seem
wonderful Mr.. Fleece, the chief Engineer, who
has controlled and directed the work, was on the
span all the time directing its movements and when
1t struck home safely he mus, have felt thrill q
qualification that it would be hard to express
Everything about the machinery was then new
and rough, but we have no doubt that one man can
now turn, and reverse the drawspan, with all ease
in five minutes.

of forming au Uuion Club for GAINESVILLE and Mont

are given, officially in another column of this issue
aud we need only say that the attendance was very
large, and that most gratifying spirit animated
ali present..
After the formation Of the Club and the transac-
ton Of all the business before it, Mr. G. c. Breed
was called out under previous notice that he
would address the meeting and took the stand
Mr. Breed has not been accustomed to public speak
ing, and some little cmbarra smcnt was naturally
manifested by him on this occasion, but, altogether
the eaort was highly creditable.
lie hss always heretofore been democrat, and
acted with the democratic rarty but now like
thousands of other democrats who dare to think for
themselves, he refuses to be driven into useless
support OF either faction Of that party but ranges
himself the side of the Union, and for Bell and
Everett His speech was mainly meant for "a rea-
son for the faith that Is in him. and mos, sensbly
did he set forth his faith and defend It, His argu-
ments were addressed TO the reason and common
sense of his hearers, and they were backed up by
facts and figures that are incontrovcrtible. The
large audience heard him throughout not only
patiently, but with interest and his speech was Of
sort that cannot but do good to our cause. We
