the largest audiences that ever assem-

listen to Governor Porter. The people
could hardly find standing room. He
made an able, complete, satisfying and

THOMAS has sGa'n been heard in
Memphis. he spoke last night at the
G. teenlsw Operahonse to a meagre az
dlence, largely composed Of Democrats
who are opposed to him. He did not
add to his reputation, the matter Of his
speech being In no sense new, and his
character for fairness was not heightened
by. the repetition Of statements in re-
gard to Governor Porter, every one
OF which that gentleman took good care
to deny when here. Mr.. Thomas was
failure in, and he is dead failure out OF
the d am ocratic psrty.

the temperance reform in all communities; these
and other favorable considerations should encour-
