Republican Meeting in the Courthouse

9
On Thursday evening last a very large au-
dience assembled in the Court house to lis
ten to an address from Mr. Conway. of New
York. Col. G. L. Harris was called to the
chair, and Capt. T. F. Lee, and j. B. Hutch
ing were appointed Secretaries. The re-
applauded, and that part in which he scor-
ed the speakers at the Conservative meeting
held in the same hall few hours before,
was especially we'll received. M. Conway's
speech was an able exposition of Republican
principles. This speaker has already accom-
plished a vast amount of good in the unre-
constructed States.
Gov. Holden was next called for. He
confined himself to repelling the false and
slanderous charges of rebels and traitors
against the League he then moved a vote
of thanks to Mr.. Conway, which was unani
mously adopted.
Col Deweese was next called out, when
he proceeded to expose the trickery of the
Conservatives in overslaughing "the twenty
five working men," which he did in a
laughable manner. His remarks were dl.
rected to the laboring white men of the com.
munity, bidding them to take lessons from
the experience of the past and beware OF
demagoguical aristocrats and secessionists
Mr.. Jas. H. Jones was next called for
He applied himself to the refutation Of
charges against the colored people, preferred
by the rebels In the course ofhis remarks
he peeled Mr.. Russ in fine style.
The meeting then adjourned, after having
spent pleasant and profitable evening.

THE COMING OF THE DAY.
BY EDWARD A. NIvEN.

The air all burdened with luscious sweets,
And heavy with falling dew;
The Eastern sky all aglow in streaks
Of crimson, and gold, and blue.
A few faint stars in Heaven drifting
A melody in the air,
As if the Mother of All were lifting
Her voice in sweetest prayer.
I. The tinkle of sheep bells, sharp and clear,
The lowing of kline near by
That drowsily stand by the purple mere,
Waiting the milk maids cry.
The top of the hills all glittering
In the suns first rosy beams,
A thousand birds all twittering
Adown by the meadow streams.
Swiftly the shadows are hitting
From the heart of the valley fair,
And the tide of the sunlight drifting
Leaves an impress of glory there.

TICKETS !!

Be sure to have your tickets ready
for the election!
The law provides that the words
" For q Conventions" shall be on the
ballot. 1t is better to have it on the
back, for then it can not be torn off,
The Rebels will put !" For q Conce,a
ton" and against q Conrcntioae" on
the face of their tickets, SO as to catch
all they can for their cause; and then,
if the voter does not want to vote on
Convention, he can tear that part off
the ticket. This is one of their tricks.
BE sure to haze your tickets ready.-
1t is useless to go into battle without
ammunition. The word now is, close
up, forward march, to glorious victo-
ry. In the name of Liberty, Loyalty
and Union we shall triumph.

DAVENPORT. IOWA. TUESDAY.


A correspondent Of the st. Louis Rspu5
lican relates the following story of Gen.
Jones, Of Dubuque, as TO the ,nanIer in
which he procured the bill through the
Senate organizing the Territory Of Iowa.
against the opposition Of Mr.. Calhoun, who
~as bitterly opposed to it, AID carried
enough weight to induce its defeat. The
story is true, ws believe, in al essentials,
and 10 link in the evidence to prove what
even Gen. Jones' most bitter political enc>
mics have always been ready to concsdc,
that he did more in Congress for the benc
fit Of Iowa than auy other re epresenntive We
have ever had in either house, or So far as
tha. ia concerned, than all the others pu,
together Here is what the Republican,
correspondent says
"A letter from ex-senator Jones rather
interested the writer hereof, especially the
following:
Mt. Calhoun did not make the intended
speech against the territorial bill. having
had the tact to have the same called up ant
acted upon during his absence from the
Senate Chamber"
"The unwrtten history Of that tact may
perhaps be interesting to CUR readers. ant
(soms comic writer says it is thusly: .Th {
Hon. Geo. w. Jones, or the General as lac j,
more familiar known at home, was, and is
great ladies' man. Knowing the opposition
to his territorial bill" on the part Of Mr.
Calhoun, aud that speech from that dis
tinguished statesman would defeat it. hi
set his wits TO work to procure the absence
Of Mr.. 9. when the bill would be called up
To accomplish this he paid very marked at
tention to lady relative Of Mr.. q. then at
the capital. and was 30 kind. polite and en-
tertaining, that she feeling under obligation,
to him for the same. inadvertently, express
cd the hope that circumstances might
throw it in her way to render him some
service. This was just what the Gensra
wanted, and he Immediately said, you can
il you will, do me the greatest favor in too
world" and went on to explain tho "terri
torial BILL and the opposition Of Mr.. Call
houn thereto. "Now," said the General
"it will como up on such day, you be II
The gallery. aud when send you my care
call out Mr.. c., and on some pretext keeI
him out an hour or twO." She consented
and carried out the arrangement, and dur-
ing that absence the bill was passed, anc
Mr.. Calhoun didn't have An opportunity t.
oppose. That. Mr.. Editor, is Geo. W
Jones' tact"
