Mr. Henry Hunter was called ON .na

also believed that Gen. Grant, to whom ii,
hearts and eyes were turned, was fulfllinn

His speech called forth many expressions
of approval and met with hearty response
IN the minds of his hearers
Mr.. Doyle was also called upon. He had
fought under Gen. Grant and had passed
through the rebellion with his eyes tiyed
upon the great leader and his hand ready to
fulfil his commands. He would support the
Republican nominee for President and sus.
tain the platform and principles of the party
But lie felt that Mr.. Chase under all the
circumstances was most fit for the position
and while he would bow to the decision of
wiser men, nevertheless his opinion led him
to- say that Salmon p. Chase of Ohio. would
best meet the requirements of Chief Magis
trate, assisted by the military genius of Gen.
Grant. One could not do without the other
half as well, and when both acted in concert
there would be created power for good to
the country, before which the schemes of

land is unworthy of her independence, be-
cause forsooth some recreant Irishmen in
this country, have steadily acted with and
voted for the slave lords of the South.
That Ireland is the friend of oppression in
any form is false. While other nations be-
came rich and powerful by the sale of hu
man beings, to the immortal honor of Ireland
be it stated that no slave ship dared ever to
enter her harbors The greatest of dead
Irishmen was Daniel O'Connell. Like Ber-
ryer and Mirabeau, he was the orator of
great masses of men. He struck down to
the very EARTH at single blow, the rampant
rhetoric of those who defended slavery in
the English House of Commons. The adj
vocates of oppression retreated and quailed
before him. Hear what he said years ago
when the sl0Ue Frederick Douglas. was in

was grand speech-as sublime a warning

pathos, and burning in its rebukes. II
