He then told how he sold machinery to

GOLD Is NOT A CURRENCY.
II is a commodity just the same as any
article, and | came here my fellow labor
ing men to expose this iniquity that was
being practiced on the working pOOple OF
this nation by the moneyed aristOcrats,
the Shermans, the RothsChilds, the Bel.
mOnts and others. say, and repeat 1t,
that gold is not fit for currency, and
only for the benefit Of aristocrats. After
eulogizing Blandys newspaper and him.
seltin particular for his efforts at this time,
he told OF his ups nddowns in the past, OF
Blandy's bank In GAINESVILLE, Of his love
for old Peter Cooper, Of New York, who
had as royal blood in his veins as did bis
horse Tom Boston, that he had been all
his life q Republican, Bro. Ball knew
that. Some soft soap at this point for
Bro. Ball, You, my fellow wOrkmen, are
the boys, | want you to come 10 my
plan, and greenbacks shall be as plenty as

We will get the President and n ma
jority Of Congress, then | will say to
those moneyed aristoCrats you have prac.

and we will give old Bill Allen $4,000,
my boys, for lie is the representative Of
this gcloriOus plan, At this point an
enthusiastic admirer OF Dlandy yelled
out, "Av course, yis, q hundred thousand
DO gorra" The speaker closed one Of the
most incOhCrCnt, rambling arguments we
have listened to this campaign, by urging
upon tho Democracy the organizing OF
Allen clubs at once. lie was no prophet,
but ho wanted to comfort the boys and
would prophecy their safety, their Ger.

in the blue ClheriRl sky and then pro.

mankind, We would not advise Mr..
BIandy to undertake a flight Of that kind;
some person might take him for a fly up
the creek and shoot him before hC had
gone hundred yards.l
Brother Owesney here introduced Bro.
Ball As the "fnest lawyer" in the State
After hearinghls remarks, We thought it
probable that we had misunderstood Mr..
Owesncy, and think so yet. Ball said he
would discuss the financial issue from a
legal standpoint; he was glad TO be here.
II was the first time in his life he had
the pleasure Of seeing the Democrats OF
SiGubcnville, and the first time he had the
pleasure Of hearing Bro. Blandy make a
Democratic speech. The meeting re.
solved itself into kind Of mutual adj
niralion society, and Ball furnished
some soft soap for Dlandy, and Blandy
distribute more charity than all the anti.

said he was a "Silver Grey Wing, not
Democrat, and thank God, nota Republic

putcd the validity Of agreenback, he was
denounced as COpperhead, and treated
as q graybnck. lie further solved the f.
nnncial difficulties by stating that II Bill
Allen got $4,000 Majority, Wall street the
next morning would look like beautiful
corpse between two sheets, and not much
like contraction. He passed to the school
question, and stated that the Republicans
we're against tho division Of the school
fund. kfhe Democrats were opposed 10 1t,
and the Catholics didn't want IL, at least
he never heard itif they did. Ills speech
throughout was M attempt 10 prove
that gold had no intrinsic value more
than cabbage leaf, unless stamped by
the Government, and was n rather dry
affair. The Democrats claim II was a
Berry good meeting, but on tho 18th the
Republicans will show them that they
can do Bout wells they can.
