Although it is admitted on all hands that
I. j. KENNY Esq. made as good a speech as
We should have heard from any of the dis
our meeting on Saturday last, yet perhaps an
apology is due the Democracy IN thai these
promised and who they came to see and hear,
we're not present. Mr.. Pendlcton had promised
certainly to be here, and twJ days before the
meeting wrote making the arrangement at
London On Friday morning the following
dispatch was received :
~CINcINNATI, May 29th. 1868.
To T.. j. KENNY: Mr.. Peudleton met
with an aceie ent tkis morning ON the way
from his house to he cars to attend your meet
I'M, mhiuh dIsaftes him from going. 1t causes
hun the deepest regret. He returned yester.
day from Vinton county w. MCLEAN.
On the same day we received word that
DR. Olds and Gov. Medary were sick and
confined to their beds. Jackson of Bucyrus,
was detained by a mass meeting at his own
town. Judge BARLEY had made all arrange
ments TO come. but his child having the scar
let fever suddenly became very dangerously
.ill,-not expected to live from hour to hour,
US preventing his attendance. Last
didn't come Judge Bliss. The Judge, with
out having received the invitation sent him,
was called to Cleveland on an important law
suit. On Saturday night at ten O'Clock he
received the first word that he was expected
to address our meeting. As evidence that
the Judge would have been here if he could
have come or had known in time, we state
that Immediately on receiving the word he
got a team and came to Ashland, arriving
here about 3 O'Clock Sabbath morning. The
Judge expressed extreme regret that he had
not been present.

Truth and the Union Forever.


philosopher and satirist the world ever pro-
dueed, lectured in this place OF Monday night
to a large and delighted audience. We regret
that we have not space to notice the lecture
and tho lecturer as they deserve. Suffice is to
say, that 81. n" has no peer either in an.
cient or modern times. The world will yet
be compelled to acknowledge his matches
powers. He is the poor mans friend, and ex-
plains the war so powerfully and cloquently
that none can be so blind as not to see 1t"
His views and ideas are such as no ether man
has "the nerve" to utter, although they are
true to the letter. But he is making such a
sepressure" upon error that the millennium is
fast approaching-the time when all zen will
acknowledge his doctrines and worship at no
other shrine than "Truth and Union" 20
N" is the only true, unterriied aud uncon'
querable advocate of "Truth and Union" and
the only man that dare utter his true senti-
nents and views upon the war and the correct
principles upon which peace can be secured.
j. N" has. solved the whole thing, and un-
less his theory is adopted, it is an uncontro-
vertible fact that We can never have a govern
ment. He shows plainly that the war is a
perfect sacrifice of life, that a "Jinion" cannot
be effected by the power of martial arms
That the alienation of sympathy that has been
occasioned by the prejudice against The insti'
tuition of slavery must be conciliated or the
country is deluged in blood. He is TO parti
zan, but explains the war as it now progress
cs, in its true philosophical light.
81. N" says both jeff Davis and Abe Lin
coin are right the way they view it, but wrong
in fighting, and we fully endorse him. 81.
n" has an unlimited amount of "nerye" and
can sand the "pressure." He is as mod
est as a maiden, claiming nothing for himself,
bat d%svoting all his master energies. to refor-
ming the world from error harmless as a
dove, never az 5~ressive, but intending to con-
quer a perversc world by the overwhelming
enginery of unanswerable reasoning. IF Con
gress would accept the truths uttered by 81.
N" this war would cease-we would have a
Government in less than one month.
The Ohio Statesman was tho first paper
that recognized his philosophy on the 'Union,'
and every press both North and Southland
men of sill parties must acknowledge the cor
rectness of his reasoning.
"Go for them u. N in all thy might and
power! Roll on, thou fearless martyr! The
pressure OF prejudice may suppress the jouIn-
ais of the country, but you will die in prison
sooner than surrender truths, which you think
will restore this Government, and stop this in
human blood shed.
Go on,"J. N" your cause is just angels
will watch over and protect you from harm
and when you have fulfilled your mission upon
earth, conquered Error, and established Truth,
Union, Peace and Brotherly Love, firmly as
the crock of ages throughout the land, they
will weave for you and place upon your noble
brow a crown of sparkling diadems, as you
majestically and meekly ascend to take your
position in the highest seat t'on tie right
hand"

CROWD.

The Largest Convention Ever He'd in Ashland
The mass meeting on Saturday last was with
out question the largest political assemblage
ever convened in ashland county. Although
the threatening aspect of the weather in the
morning prevented large numbers from attend.
ing yet by nine o'clock our streets were dense
lY thronged. About ten o'clock the Delega.
lions from the different townships commenced
pouring in. They came in the good ola fash
Toned style, two, four and six horse teams
wagons covered with hickory branches and
bearing that same old flag, "not a star erased
or polluted and not a single stripe obscured.'
The proceedings of the the meeting with the
resolutions &c will be found in another col
umn. The immense number present gives
evidence that the people of the country are
thoroughly aroused, that. they understand the
designs Of the tyrant Lincoln and that they
are determined to resist the edicts of the horde
Of retty despots appointed over them, at the
ballot box while it remains uncontaminated
and free; by other means if that is interfcrcd
with. About four O'Clock the people began to
disperse. Not a single disturbance occurred
during the day. 1t was generally remarked
that there had never a mass convention passed
off more orderly and with more good feeling
this. Many felt much disappointed at
the failure of our speakers to come, which we
explain elsewhere.
