taoles' oieeeeu II White, each bearing small
Hag, appeared In the court house yard, md
presented splendid United States aag to Gov.
Stewart. He responded in his peculiarly hap
p style, after which the banner was raised
sheered with degree Of enthusiasm which
have seldom witnessed.
The Governor then proceeded to entertain
Us with one Of his compounds Of logic, sarcasm
and anecdote, for which he is so justly cele-
6rated. During all the proceedings till the
Goyefnor reached about the middle Of his
1oyance, by threats and menaces, making
Tree use of all the foul language so abundant
among such eeml-barbarIans. At this period,
seeming to despair, for the time being, Of break
ing up the meeting, q Gall WAS made for all
men In favor Of State Rights to repair to
some church, at which they left US. Tha GOV.
ernor finished his speech and the young lA-
dies sung patriotic Song.
