Hayes and Wheeler campaign flag. across
the highway and on the premises of Fay
cite Barney, esq, IL guns were fired, and
three rousing cheers were given when the

assembled on the premises Of Mr.. Barney
where seats and conveniences for the occa-
sion had been duly arranged. B. w. Burt,
esq, as president, and l.. w. Preston, esq,
as secretary, were duly appointed. The
meeting was addressed by Henry L. Clark,
Morris II. Cook and P. w. Hyde, esquires,
in an earnest, able and impressive manner,
on the issues involved in the present CAM
paign, and upon the comparative political
merits Of the candidates for president and
vice president, demonstrating to an impair
tial mind that the republican party are in
the line of their duty doing noble work.
The several speakers complimented the
ladies of Castleton Corners for their valu-
able constitution towards this flag and for
the tasty and artistic manner in which they
manufactured this flag, reminding one of
those stirring times in which the ladies
made and bestowed flags for service in the
field and in the cause which Messrs. Tilden
and Hendricks voted failure Castleton
army richly deserves this flag. The school
dat let of Castleton Corners, and not a
large one, sent twenty soldiers to the late
war, elk of whom were not returned alive.
Where there is patriotism there is a CORE
spending reverence for 1.-The old flag"
1t was suggested by one of the speakers
that in the eleven years after the close of
the revolutionary war, because the times
were hard and the war debt unpaid, and
there was uneasiness among the people and
instructions then as well as now, any one
had proposed to turn out the wings and
call back the tories to manage the govern
Inent the mover of such q mad scheme
would have been regarded and treated as q
traitor. The attempt to put this govern
ment in charge of the confederates now is
not less recreant in patriotism and should
be treated accordingly by every one who
does not regard the war a failure. The
meeting closed with three rousing cheers
for Hayes and Wheeler. REPORTER.
