OotooSi oil AOSAs
To the Editor Of The State Journal:
Yesterday was a great day for the Re-
publicans of this and adjoining counties,
II mass meeting being in every respect a
grand success. Gov. H. III. Wells, Col.
|. II. Shields and Capt. George PANEL, the
latter Of this county, addressed the meeting
which was composed of white and colored,
with q goodly number of our Conservative
white opponents.
The grand effort of Governor Wells has
been the subject of much favorable COM
ment by everybody here, the feeling and
eloquent manner in which he appealed to
the ex-Confederate soldiers for peace and
true reconciliation was most truly affect
ing, and many of his hearers were affected
to tears. His tribute to the memory of
General Lee, who had been charged by
Greeley with having entered the Confede-
rate army from Ambitious and wanton"
motives was an affecting as we'll
as o most eloquent one. He de-
nounced in unmeasured terms the
charge of Greeley, and said that Vir-
ginians could not consistently vote for him,
until he had at the tomb of Lee, on Bonded
knees, taken back what he had said In
regard to the motives Of the distinguished
dead.
Governor Wells held his audience spells
bound for two hours, and the hearty ap.
plause Of his hearers attested the apprecia-
ton with which his speech throughout was
received. Many Conservative gentlemen,
who was present, pronounced the speech of
Governor Wells as one of the most eloquent
and impressive as well as conclliatory
speeches that they have heard during the
canvass.
1 am sure that the Governor will excuse
me for this imperfect notice of his great
argument, but time is precious, and | must
pass along to our young and truly eloquent
friend Colonel !. H, Shields, who followed
Gov. Wells in an argument that appeared
to me at once convincing and unanswer-
able in defence Of the great principles of
Republicanism, and also in defence of the
administration of General Grant. The
Colonel made manv telling points which
were received with frequent and enthusiast
tic applause. His appeal to the young men
of Virginia was a most eloquent one, and
convinced his hearers by his earnest manner
that he was speaking to them the words Of
| soberness and truth.
Colonel Shields was followed by Captain
George Pannel, of this county, who stirred
up the meeting with outbursts Of laughter
and applause in his amusing stories about
Greeley. The Captain closed his speech
with an eloquent appeal to his fellow-citi.
zens of C%ulpepper to support Grant and
Wilson, The Culpepper brass band was
on hand, and discoursed fine music, much
to the qualification of all. They say that
the Republicans pay for music, while the
Greeley party has not yet paid them for
furnishing music on the occasion of the
mass meeting OF Democrats last court
day.
We had a fine meeting in the evening
addressed by Colonel Shields, and oul
friend L. L. Lewis, Esq, Of this county,
which was o success, and everything pass.
ed off favorable to our cause.

We had a grand meeting in old Able.
marie yesterday afternoon and evening.
Spirited addresses were made by ex-Gov-
ernor Wells, Senator Wilson, and Colonel
Shields and Colonel Beard, of R chmord
Many were the blows leyeled at the lib
eral, proscriptive party that now controls
the destinies of our fair Old Common
wealth. There was ONE wineing under
the clear and able exposition of the princi-
Piles Of our party, but in the main all were
orderly and quiet, and altogether it was one
of the best meetings ever held in our town.
An effort was made by the Democrats
to secure q division of time and discuss
jointly with us. We were obliged to de-
cline in order to prevent disappointment,
and because we were refused a like conr-
tesy on last court day. Republicans may
well feel proud of the noble man they are
to elevate to the office Of Vice-President
next Tuesday.
No truer, better man lives now in
our country than Senator Henry Will
son, the ~incorruptible statesman, the pa
triot, and philanthropistl Not one word
of exception has the writer heard to any
pait v u HIS spcCtu iIom ally Vi TIE uleHy
Democrats who heard him. His defence of
u President and of the policy of his ad-
ministration was mastery and eloquent.
Next Tuesday will manifest at the ballot
box the results of this meeting. You will
hear q good report from Albemarle.
People here will not all stand bound while
Greeley is crammed down their throats.
Hundreds would break a way if they could
from the tyranny of party and vote for the
peoples candidate. They do not like Greeley
sugar-coat him as they may, and if they
eat cro,0 it will be just this once. They
promise to do it just to beat Grant. AS
all concede Grants election now the impor-
lance of keeping their party together to
save the State is urged 10 make the meal
palatable 1t is a forlorn hope, as we hope
to show them Tuesday by saving it our
selves. "PUBLIM."

October 30, 1871

October 80, 1S72.j
II the Editor If he State Journal:
Dear Sir-Colonel Daniels, our candidate
for Congress, in this the Sth district, made
us a very unexpected visit to-day, and
kindly consented to address the people OIL
our town, Notwithstanding no notice had
been given previous to his arrival, the
court having adjourned and the country
people had gone to their homes.
But notice was soon posted at the post
Office and other public places in the town,
and by the ringing of the courthouse bell
at IT O'Clock in the evening, q goodly num-
Der Of citizens were summoned together at
the courthouse, and he had a well-filled
house. The curious of the Greeley
party, Notwithstanding their preju-
dices, ventured by degrees to see if
any good thing could come out of Naza-
reth, and before the Colonel had gotten
through many of them found themselves
drawn by his arguments and eloquence
into his immediate presence, and uncon-
s%ciously found themselves clapping, stamp
ing, and applauding his noble sentiments,
especially those upon State policy.
Tho Colonel assured the so-called Con-
servatives that the principles he was pre-
senting to them were nothing less than
Republican principles, and he wanted all
men of oil parties to adopt them, and he
suggested very modestly that he thought
they would find it to their interest to have
them carried out, and to elect him to Con-
gress, as lawyers were not always the beat
men to attend to such matters as they
pretty generally looked after their own
interest first. More truth than poetry.)
The Colonel has done good, not only BY
his able speech, but in his intercourse with
many Of our best citizens the short time he
was with us. lie invited public discussion,
but as the boy said, . they had hearn of
him, " and Idon'twonder that Gen. Hunton,
the Greeley candidate, can't find time to
canvass with him. An old lawyer of this
place told me that General Hunton would
have nc use for the Colonel, as he had
heard the Colonel, and knew Hunton's
ability on the stump. We had q very in.
teresting meeting, taking it altogether, and
the effect of it will be to considerably IN
crease the vote hereabouts for Grant and
Wilson.
The Colonel leaves tomorrow for VIM
chester. ! am truly sorry that he did not
come out for Congress two months ago, as
then the General might have been driven
out of his privacy, and been compelled to
meet the issues before the people in this
canvass. But we will fight on, for we will
never rest until we change this good old
State, and get her citizens to adopt new and
progressive ideas. A LOCKER On.
