Meeting at Turner Hall Last Night.
COL. THOMEs n. NELSON ADDRESS-
rs THE PEOPLE,
He is enthusiastically. Received.

Notwithstanding but one days no.
tee was given. Turner Hail was well
filled, last night by our people, who
were anxious to hear the talented and
gifted orator, Col. Thomas FL. Nelson,
of Terre Haute. After some delight
full music By the Crescent City Silver
Band, Col. Nelson was Introduced to
the audience by Mr.. w E. French.
Col. Nelson then proceeded in an elo-
quent and impressive style to adj
dress the people on the topics of
the day. We win not attempt a re-
port of Mr.. Nelson's speech, but will
simply say that inpoint of sound ar
gument, logic, and good reasoning. it
was one ofahe best we have heard
this season. OF course, he was COM
PEELED TO travel over the same ground
of ali political speakers on the Re-
publican side Of politics. In order to
meet che Arguments Of Democratic
politicians. This he did in style
peculiar to himself, which ia argu-
ment,. was everpowering, aud in logic
faultitss. His speech was interspersed
with a snfeie Mt rruaHber of applicable
anecdotes 10 make it interesting
and attractive. The large audi
-ence was held spell,bound as 1t
were, as the speaker inzhis impressive
and eloquentstyle, portrayed IN VIVID
and life-hke colors the history OF the
Democratic party during the years Of
the war. The infamous record of that
party was. in a ehaste and elegant
manner.a presented to the people.
Throughout the speech was received
with raptares of applause. 1t was
indeed most convincing. We com
mend CoTjneT Nelson to Republicans
everywhere as one of our best orators
and soundest reasoners, and bespeak
for him large audience wherever he
goes in this District E1a

THE CAUSE IN DAVIES COUNTY
Last Friday very large Republican
meeting was held at Washington, in
Daviess County. Notwithstanding
the Indictment weather, at least $500
peopl9 were in attendance to hear the
gallant General aurlbut speak The
damp and chilly weather did not
e dampen the ardor of the Daviess
County Republicans, who are wide
awake, and who will render a good
ii account OF themselves at the October
election. Atnight, Col. r. g. Inper-
soil spoke to a large and enthusiastic
audience of people. The Republicans
of that county propose to have am
other grand rally on Saturday next.
Strong hopes are entertained that the
copperhead majority will be greatly
reduced in that county this election.

A few weeks ago an insurrectionary move
mcnt was made in the Turkish province of
Bulgaria by about 800 men, who had been col
lected in tho neighboring principally of Rou-
mania The Turkish Government, always de-
sirous to represent these outbreaks as inolgnl1-
can't called the insurgents brigands. but at the
same time deemed it necessary to take the
most energetic measures for their prompt
dispersion. The success OF the turks
has, however, not been so complete
as was officially announced, for we learn
by the Cable that a new and powerful
instruction has been prepared. and that
already several new bands of insurgents have
made their appearance. No Trustworthy Inior-
nation has been recently received about the
discomfort in the Christian provinces of Turkey
or about the plans of Russia; but new point
in the Eastern question is the fear OF the
Turks that Prince Charles of Roumania
pursues ambitious plans, and that his influence
can be traced in the seditiOus movements OF
the last months.
