+. ,o,i-e vote they would have carried
.l..'sr,.on. with the aid of the Liberal
g.opbIic.ns, BY 5000 majority. He
,,r.j s.,eallon to the very singular
.,iiaon Of political affairs at this time.
Y. .ee men leading the Republican
NAVY who never were Republicans until

ss,i YOU see the Democracy and Lib
::ss supporting a man who was always
, Rspublicau and who has dealt the
Democrats some very strong blows, as
,.sy sdmit Grant, he said, was only
Ion mated by the Radicals in 1868 to
s.sp ! he Democrats from nominating
hin. Itwas well known that he was
% statesman; that be toook so little
:,:s!esl in the affairs Of the nation that
as bal never voted but osce in his life.
He made strong appeal TO his audi

Iai energetic action TO secure the elec-
sga of Horace Greeley and thereby
,:sak up the office holders ring and
,s.uke those who are endeavoring to
tsnua,ize the power that belongs in the
ls1is Of the people in the head of the
government. Elect Grant for four
yss.s more, said the speaker, and he
I'll elect himself after that; al the
:gh,s OF the people viii be usurped and
YOU will have nothing but a mockery
q Republican Government, even il q
monarchy be not established.
Colonel Poorman was listened to with
marked attention and his speech was
oxen interrupted with enthusiastic ap.
gaC:e.
Hon. Ohey Johnson followed Colonel
Poo:msn in one of his earnest, ringing

S. Ps!ty difference ard come up as one
a4n 10 the rescue Of the Republic fiom
lie hands OF the party in power. His
iPPsal or the oppressed South was a
most eloquent one, asd was received
'Nl great applause.
Hon. E q. Cracraft being called for,
1aie t'ief speech Of great power. 1t
'is a splendid effort and wop for Mr..
T. the cheers OF bis audience.
Twas expected that Hon. Ben. Will

Iae meeting was enlivened by the

!Ta's0ce They furnished the audi
sa:e some fine music, rendering it in a
most SPIRITED and effective manner.
Inc meeting was complete success,

'-'S' that our people are taking q good
