MOUNT VERNON, o., October "a, 1867.

Especial Dispatch to the Cincinnati Enquirerl
MOUNT VERNON, o., October "a, 1867.
The largest meeting ever held in Mount
Vernon or Central Ohio, is now being
addressed by G. L. Vallandigham from
the same stand and beneath the same starry
banner that waved over him when ar
rested by the satraps Of Ambrose Burn
side.
The town is Utterly jammed with .
joyous crowd of patriotic Democrats,
one-half of whom can not get within
hearing distance Of the speaker. The
people are wild with enthusiasm. The
cheering that constantly greets the
speaker as he lets his heavy blows fall
thick and fast. upon the tools Of tyranny
are perfectly deafening.
The Radicals are dumb founded, and
wonder where so many people came from.
The Democracy and Conservatives arc
happy and jubilant. The best possible
order prevails.
SECOND DISPATCH.
In dispatch correct idea of Vaf-
landigham's speech can not be given in
his style manner. He excelled himself
and those who have often heard him
pronounce this to be his greatest efsrs.
In sentiment, his speech was moderate,
but lofty and impassioned, and probably
no Grafton has been delivered in Ohio
for years which produced so profound q
sensation.

Unanimously Adopted in COnven-
tiOn, at Nashville, Tenn,
april 10, 1867.
The Road to Victory !

We, the Conservative Union men of Ten
nessee, adopt the following platform Of prin-
ciples:
1st We are in favor of the Union of the
States under the Constitution of the United
States, and pledge ourselves to support and
maintain the same.
I'd. We are the friends of peace and civil
law, and that these great obi ects can be best
promoted by legislation recognizing equal
and exact justice to all-exclusiVe privileges
to none.
Sd. We are In favor of immediate reste-
ration of our disfranchised felIow-citizens
to all rights, privileges and immunities of
full and complete citizenship.
4th. That our colored feIlow-citizens, be-
ing now citizens of the United States and
citizens of the State of Tennessee and voters
of this State, are entitled to all the rights
and privileges of citizens under the laws and
Constitution Of the United States and of the
| State Of Tennessee.
9Th. We are opposed to the reputation of
the national debt; and are in favor of equal
taxation, as the proper method of paying the
same.
9th That the establishment Of standing
| army in our State in time of peace, is a fla
grant and dangerous encroachment upon
the rights and liberties of the citizen
heavily oppressive to the taxpayer, and evi-
IDENTIFY designed to overawe voters at the
ballot-box
9TH. We cordially approve of the patriotic
efforts Of Andrew Johnson, President Of the
United States, in defending the Constitu.
ton, preserving the Union Of the States, and
maintaining the supremacy Of the laws.
