To tic Editor Of tie KAnnebec Journdl:
Two important events transpired in

other the assembling of the Democrats and
Greeley republicans in the Union Church on
Saturday evening. This meeting was looked
forward to with considerable interest on ac-
count Of its being the home Of Col. I. 5.
Lang. The meeting was called to order by
ii. A. Priest who nominated W. p. Thomp
son, for President. Mr.. Thompson stated
that they were disappointed in not seeing L.
+. Pillsbury present but that he would be
here in few days. The audience numbered
about two hundred mer, women and children.
with large sprinkling of Grant and Wilson
men who of course took 'back seats" The
President introduced Mr.. Lang who came
forward amid the cheers Of some twenty five
old democrats and Greeley ties and stated that
it was unexpected to him to be there and did
not know OF his name being used in the bills
until late hour. He went on to state to his
new friends why he LETT his old ones; and it
was simply TINS - nat he HHu discovered SO
much corruption in the republican party that
he felt it his duty to abandon it. He told his
railroad story, told about his losses in busi-
ness on account Of being disappointed IN not
getting an office, spoke of the letter he re-
ceived from Mr.. Blaine why don't he have it
published?l Mr.. Lang then introduced Hon.
Mr. Williams from New York. Mr.. Will
lams at the outset said that he was going TO
define the issues of the two parties so plainly
that a child four years old could understand
them. After stating that it was the design of
the democratic party to put up the rankest
abolionist in the county and that that man
was Horace Greeley, he then said that the no
blest act of Horace's life was the signing OF
jeff Davis bond; he then lost himself in his
array of oratory and went on the Portland
torch. light procession. And that was the last
of his defining the issues of the two parties
lie spoke of General Grant in the highest
terms, as military man, and of his noble
achievements. "Were it in my power" said
he, Il would renstate him as Lieutenant
General of the army as the man best fitted
for that position" After requesting his au-
dience to be patient, for he could stand it as
