SENATOR POMEROY'S SPEECH.

Senator Pomeroy came here on
tho afternoon train Tuesday, and in
the evening addressed our people
on national politics. Notwithstand-
ing the notice was short, Bancroft
hall was well filled with an intelli-
gent audience. Our band favored
the public with some fine music in
front of the hall before the speak
ing commenced.
Mayor Jay presided. The Sena-
tor spoke for an hour or more, and
was listened to with marked atten-
ton. We say what nearly all will
admit when we assert that his
speech was the best one that has
been made here during the cam
paign. It was dignified and sound,
and was an agreeable contrast, in
all respects, to tho disgusting, per-
| sonal hash meted out by the Gree
ley orators who occupied the same
hall few evenings ago. He dwelt
alone upon national topics, and was
frequently quite eloquent and hum
orous. He noticed the course of
the Republican party for twelve
years, and told what it had done to
make US a great and free nation.
Discussed the amendments made to
the constitution and the laws which
had been passed to secure to all
freedom. Showed how the Repub-
Iican party had given to the country
q sound currency in place of the
old Democratic "shin plaster" sys-
tenn. He appealed to his hearers
not to put. the country in the hands
of the Democrats to undo all that
has been done to make this great
nation-to go back upon all the
progress that has been made at such
sacrifices. He dwelt at considera-
BILE length on the Administrations
financial policy, showing it to be
sound, and to haYe the confidence of
the monied men of the world.
Greeley's policy is like ship at sea
without a rudder. There is great
danger in a change now. The plat
form of Greeley that "the way to
resume specie payment was to re-
sumo" was rotten, and would, if
adopted, bring financial panic and
ruin.
We can really, in this short no
tice, give but a poor idea of the
force and clearness of the points
made. The speech Is just such an
one as ought to be made every
where, and is calculated to do great
good. We had never heard the
Senator on the stump before and
confess that we were agreeably sur
prised, and we think that was the
general feeling of the audience.
During his stay many of our
citizens called on the Senator at the
Robinson House and extended their
congratulations. The Senator left
Wednesday afternoon for the South
west. He will speak at Cotton
wood Falls, Peabody, Wichita and
other points.

FROM OTTUMWA.


OTTUMwA, KAN, July 81, 1872.
EDITOR NEws-DedT Sir: / hur-
riedly pen a few words relative to
recent developments here which
may be of interest to some OF your
readers. We removed to this place
some weeks ago, to make an effort
toward resuscitating our fallen col
lege here The prospects were al
ready Frightening into promise and
favorable opening generally pre-
dicted, until recently, when the
whole question was summarily and
finally settled. About midnight on
the evening of the oath inst, the
citizens of Ottumwa were summon
ed to witness the rapid and ruthless
destruction of the building by fire.
Although the door had been locked
by my own hands at noon before,
yet the individual first upon the
grounds found that the lock had
been picked and the door was stand
ing open. Adding to this the utter
impossibility of the building taking
fire at the time and in the way
which it did, except by human
hands, we are forced to the painful
conclusion that it was the work of
an inceHd:ary.
The flames had proceeded so far
when discovered that nothing was
saved. A few of the broken and
melted fragments of the bell were
gathered up after the fire. This is
all that remains except the blacken-
ed and broken walls, which are still
standing, a frowning monument to
the malignant passions of the hu-
man heart. Thus by a fell stroke
the last of many blows, falls on an
institution of premature birth, pain
full history aud tragic end. But we
trust that energies will spring from
its smouldering ruins, wisdom be
gathered from its history, and that
its sad end will silence every dis
cordant element and that a future
educational enterprise in the State
will be fraught with greater energy,
wisdom and harmony.

preachers and pastors of other
churches. In the preaching there
seemed to be no attempt to preach
great sermons to win applause, but
each man, as he came on the stand,
appeared to feel the Importance of
his work and aimed straight for the
heart. The songs and prayers were
of the oId-fash toned Methodist
camp meeting style, and often held
the vast multitudes as with the
power of magic. The meeting re-
suited in the conversion of near
fifty souls. About forty united
with the NJ. L. church; some of
them had previously joined as seek
ers of religion and some will proba-
bly, unite with other churches.
All things considered the meet
ing was a grand success, and if the
Methodists on the various charges
in the Emporia District will
make arrangements to attend this
feast of Tabernacles still greater
results may be looked for in the
future. The officers of the associa-
ton will spare no pains to make
provision for the comfort and con-
venience of those wishing to attend
in future. The beginning has been
good; let the future be glorious.

The Emporia news. [volume] (Emporia, Kan.) 1859-1881, 1872-08-09
NORTH CAROLINA.

The news from this State, which a
week ago looked rather blue for the
Republicans, has been getting bet
ter and better every day, and it now
seems certain that the Republicans
have elected their entire State tick
ct. With 5000 Democratic major
ity two years ago, ana with $4,000
or 1900 Democratic votes added
by the amnesty bill of the Republi-
can Congress it was certainly to be
expected the state would go strong
Iy Democratic. But the Republi-
cans were able TO divide the victory
with them.
This was the second State election
since the opening of the National
campaign. Oregon, q Democratic
State, wheeled into line on the Re
publican side. The moral effect, a
least, of Democratic victory in
North Carolina is destroyed, and
the State may be set down for Gran
in November.
One of the strangest sights IL
connection with the news from
North Carolina was to see the Lib
erai Republicans outvieing the Dem
Ocrats in expressions of joy as ia
vorable Democratic news was re
ceiyed.
The fight in North Carolina-wal
purely one between Democrats anC
Republicans. The Liberal Repub
ican dupes had no hand in it; bu
still they were glad at the prospec
of the overthrow of the Republican
party. We are glad to be able t.
express the firm conviction tina
they will have but little to laugh a
from now on.
