amidst almost profound silence and pro-
ceeded to speak his piece, pretacing it with
the remark that he was glad tomeet with
the Democrats Of SIeubenville, aud then
launched out in n terrible arraignment Of
the Republican party for their efforts to
CONTRACT the currency and get back TO
specie payments, He also attempted to
defend the Geghan and other outrages
that had been perpeirated on the people
Of Ohio BY their passage, and defending
the Catholic Church on the school ones

rehash Of his speeches at New Lisbon, Sa'

The Governor spoke about twenty
minutes, and was followed by Colonel W.
S. Brown in a short speech, in which be
remarked that Mr.. Allen had pretty much
covered the ground. We left him discuss
ing the tax question, and from what he
was saying we we're satisfied he had n
poor opinion Of the Republican party.
While the speaking was going on We
noticed many Of the most prominent
Democrats at their places Of business and
along tie streets.
THE WHOLE NUMBER PRESENT
would not exceed Eve hundred, and q
large part Of them, like the Democrats,
went out Of curiosity. The meeting, tax:
en- as a whole, was = lame affair in com.

corted to the stand by the same process
