The Celebration at Bowling Green


On Thursday of last week jubilee was held at
Bowling Green, ain honor of the triumph of the
friends of Removal" The AdUoeate pronOunees it
ain every respect success" and says there were
present about five thousand persons"
Before dinner the audience was addressed by
Epson B. Corr, Esq, of FindlAy. "After him I"
1--WE quote from the Adrocate) "came ]. H. REID,
Esq, who was received with great applause. He
read copy of the petition filed by the PeTys-
burgers, and his comments on the same created
much merriment. The document was voted de-
cidedy rich and will stick to the getters-up like
poor mans plaster. AT the conclusion of Mr.. RS
speech, three cheers were given for Mr.. REID, and
three more for Mr.. Corr
After the five thousand persons had taken din
ner at the Widespread and well-fled tables, they
were again addressed, by Colonel W II. GIBSON,
who made speech, says the AdcOcate, such as no
other man could make.
The Advocate thus concludes its description of
the celebration
JoHS NORRIS, Esq, of Perry Township, was
next introduced but it was too late for him to
mence a speech. He only appealed TO his friends
throughout the county to come forward and aid in
defending their rights against the legal prosecu-
tiOn commenced by the rrysburgers, remarking
that il they were not whipped this time they
would stay whipped the next time Quite a num-
Der went to the stand and deposited money with
the executive committee to be used in procuring
counsel If needed aud if not needed for that TO be
applied to the construction of the Court House.
Nothing occurred duriug the day of an unpleasant
character. Ne drunkenness, or rowdyism of any
description, was anywhere to be seen, and every
one spoke ia the most complimentary terms of the
sobriety and gen eral good order that prevailed
throughout. Il as really proud day for Bowl
ing Green, and her citizens acquitted themselves
in manner highly creditable to them.
