A CITIZEN
Col. Baldwin's Speech at Abingdon.

OF Col. Baldwin speech at Abingdon, Va.
on the issues of the day and the prospects Of
the future, the abingdon Virginaan says:
His manner of discussion was somewhat
new and novel, but chaste; pointed forcble
and logical. His views of the social relations
subsisting between the races, were elucidated
in manner not only original, but SO stated and
explained as to invest the subject with more
than ordinary interest"
After giving an abstract of his speech, the
Erginian concludes its article as follows:
Altogether, his speech was not only one Of
the most original, but one of the best we have
heard for long time. We have only aimed at
giving the substance of it, without pretending
to give his language. IF all our speakers would
observe the same course Of reasoning the
same dignity-the same ealmness-the same
moderation-the same plain, practical argu-
nlents, much more good might be accomplished
in;the end"
