DELAWARE, August %, 1867.
EDITOR ONO STATEsMAN-Dear Sir j.:
Our meeting on the 20th was a great success,
far larger than the most sanguine expect
ed. We had from 1,5OO to 1000 uoters not
eoomen and children. A good sprinkling of
Republicans was there, and was well salts
fed with the speeches. went with Van
Trump and Hurd to Marysville, Union
county, and was surprised to see so many
in little town in fact the Democrats at
Marysville were in high spirits; said they
had not had such meeting since 1868.
The speakers made two telling speeches,
which had good effect. Yesterday (Thurs-
day. the Manhood Suffrage party had a
mass meeting here. Cox and Hamilton
were the speakers. You never saw such a
perfect .fzzle. They had 500 less voters
shan we had. They, themselves, acknowl-
edge it was fizzle, so they did not speak
at night. Reliable Republicans say they
never saw such small meeting. Take the
women and children and Democrats out OF
the crowd, there was not 300 voters pres
ent. b.

Eshelman's first meeting of this cam

roads were very muddy and the weather
extremely disagreeable, yet he had large
and very attentive audience. The rain
kept ladies and children at home, and
may say the crowd was composed entirely
of voters. The order was excellent. Dem

will carry the county this fall by a major

a Senatorial BIasphemer.

The Journal of Saturday has q regular
correspondent WHO, with great apparent
glee, gives this anecdote of Senator WADE:
-ssAt the supper table at the st. Cloud Ho-
tel, in Canton, the following anecdote of
Senator Wade was related:
HE and some friends being once engaged
in conversation in reference to our victo-
ries over. our late rebel foes, one of the
party remarked that he did not think that
our victories resulted from our strength
and numbers alone, but because God was
on our side. The Senator was asked what
he thought about this, to which he replied,
'Well, if He toasn't on our side, He was
badly whipped"
THE anecdote is consistent with B. F.
WADE's character for blasphemy and max
ing light of sacred things. If COP toasn't
on WADE's side, GoD toas badly tohipped
Senator WADE, who thus blasphemes, is
looked upon as the representative man of
Ohio Radicalism. With none of the char
acteristics of gentleman-a mocker of re-
ligion, and Incorporate in drink as in
language, we give his friends joy at their
model Senator, whose courage is so great
that he can talk of whipping the
almighty, while, at the same time,
he is so very prudent that after stating
talsehoods about Mr.. VALLANDINHAM like
a foul craven, this brave old BEN. WADE" +"
took without daring to resent it. the term
living scoundrel and coward. which the
men he slandered hurled at him. He fears
neither God or Devil, yet single man can
put him in terrible fear. He talks most
fiippantly about whipping Deity, while be-
fore an Injured man, his courage, like that
of BOB. ACRES, ''oozes out at his finger
ends" The blasphemer is ever coward.

speech. notice, though they are only the
light infantry-the mere pickets of the
army with which he assailed the works of
the Radicals. His speech must have
brought conviction to those who were hes
itating.
The speech of Mr.. Hurd was one of those
discourses that powerfully appealed to the
reason, the Justice, the humanity, the in
telligence, and the patriotism of the coun-
try. He cited several instances from the
pages OF history, to prove that no Govern
ment had ever been successful in gaining
the affections of its people and securing its
own stability by system of despotic cru
city and relentless persecution.
He reasoned with great clearness to show
that no people had ever prospered for any
very long time, whose labor and industry
had been taxed to fully one-third of all it
produced, for the benefit of a few corrupt
capitalists; and to show that revolution or
abject submission to poverty, and an
entire loss of = liberty, was the
inevitable result. His picture oft the inglo-
rious effects of placing the ballot in the
hands of the ignorant Negroes was very
impressive, and, Z am mistaken If single
man who heard him will vote for the Con-
stitutional Amendment. His whole speech
was replete with beautiful illustration,
historical fact, true patriotism, soaring ell
oquence, and sound, convincing reason.
Perhaps the best evidence of the manner
in which his speech was received, is seen
in the fact that from 600 to 800 of the citi-
zens OF Delaware, in the evening crowded
the street in front of the American Hotel,
and, notwithstanding the great strain on
voice and lung since the campaign opened,
demanded another speech from him. He
