duced, and addressed tho meeting in an
able manner, for about an hour. Dur.
ing the address of Mr.. Yates, delegations
arrived from this, and adjoining coun-
ties, and also the brass band from Will
ton, which added much to the interest
of the occasion. After the conclusion
Of Mr.. Yates speech, Hon. John +.
Dillon, of Davenport, took the stand and
spoke for an hour and quarter. 1t
would be no disparsgement to the other
speakers who were present, to say, that
Judge Dillon's address was one Of the
most able, earnest and convincing argu-
ments that l have ever heard.
Wells Spicer, Esq, followed Judge
Dillon. in an able speech. for about an
hour. He devoted some time in showing
up the inconsistency of our "copperhcad'
friends, who are crying SO loudly against
the Administration but no fault to fnd
with the action of the rebels.
Col NJ. NJ. Price was called upon after
Mr.. Spiccr had concluded, aud made q
happy speech. After which, Dr. Emo,
of Wisconsin, was introduced and spoke
for short time, in forcible and effect
i've manner
The number present was estimated at
eight hundred, and a more intelligent
aud respectable concourse Of people, sci.
dom meet togatbcr. The weather tho
threatening, proved suspicious for the
event, and everything passed off harmon
ious and pleasant.
Three rousipg cheers were given for
"the dear old flag and the Union, when
the meeting adjourned, and think all
returned to their homes, feeling better
and more patriotic for what they had
seen and heard.
