In the absence Of Henry, other ieassr lumin'
aries were there. Atherton fcs instance. he
had ! nenorixed sprsad-eagse speech, and
he spoke H. There VAS one potiseAhls point
in his speech showing the object Of the jubil- |

the Democracy were jubilatipg for. Avasn't
over low, Afss this ssats had given grand
Radical majority, ten thousand greater than
1t the preceding subesnaioriai election. 1t
wasn't over Lee county, for the Democratic
majority here this time was less than on that
occasion. twasn't over Pennsylvania, for
there but one State candidate was elected.
and tbs legislature elected Is Republican and
viii elect Republican United States Sena.
tor 10 succeed Buckalew. 1t wasn't over the
general result in Ohio, for the State gave
Republican majority. What was it for then!
Why, the jabiIa,ion was over the prospective
election OF yalandigham to the Senate. So
when AtLerton glori6ed Vallandigham the
crowd did the tallest cheering Of the evening.
After Anterior got through, Scho6eld, Of
| Carthage, spoke. His logic may pass mus
ter, 5bu, hi, rhetoric ain's worth-a cent. he
| tried il. He got '.the dawn OF Liberty
nerched on our banners and then he got
the dawn Of light perched on the country,
and then he got disgusted with his rhetorical
dawn concluded TO let err perch, apd
went into a discussion OF Democratic prinoi-
nles. which bored the crowd and dried up
their cheers. Mr.. Scho6eld is pretty solid
speaker. but he don't suit Democratic Jul
biation mee,ing.
