 and said he could hardly express his emotion, especially in the presence of his distinguished friend, MT! Loomis, who had just preceded him. As you we'll know he has been my honorable competitor for the highest office in the state for the past two years, and yet we are met here to-
 day on the same platform, andI can heartily en- dorse all that he has. said,. and my heart beats in unison with his: He thanked Mr. LooTnaiis mi f for

 whole heart and soul are in the wor k, and devo- ted to the cause of tho state and tho nation. !'- fb He portrayed the dangers which menace our
 country, endangcring even now it's capital. Men must now be brought into the field to crush this
 gigantic rebellion. He, did not allow himself to
 despair of the,result, if he did not believe. in
 our triumph and the restoration of the govern

 on an occasion like this. He trusted in the suc- cess of Litch6eld County in soon filling up its
 regiment, and that all would aid in the work. of filling its ranks. He closed with stirring ap-
 peal to the men of the assembly to rpllyfto the
 defence of the country before it is too :late-to
