CHAIRMAN CAss0DAY
having been introduced to the Con
vention with complimentary refer
ences by the temporary chairman,
the former gentleman thanked his
fellow delegates in the following
words:
Gentlemen of The Convention
The bestowment of personal honor always
begets feeling of gratitude and thankful-
ness This, however, is no place for personal
reference We have come here not for the
purpose of honoring any man, but to honor
and carry forward cause as deep and as last
ing as human nature itself, cause as
lofty as the grandest craftsmanship, a. pure
as the noblest patriotism Coming up to this
center of power from the four quarters of the
State, inspired by the memory of all the
hopes, all the struggles, of all the defeats, of
all the victories of a quarter of a century, we
are expected at least to turn our backs upon
all that is low and selfish in political action,
and raise the standard Of our party to
higher place than il has yet attained.
The enemies of the nation are not yet dead
nor are they sleeping. but are ready to seize
the nation when the time may come, unless
kept down by the patriotic men of this Re-
public. The same spirit which in the infancy
of this Republic did what it could TO prevent
national government and national cons
stitution, and insisted upon confederation
of States, the same spirit, after that conati-
tuition was adopted, sought by narrow, tech
meal and false construction of that instru-
ment TO do away with the power of the Ra-
ton to preserve its own life; that spirit
which, in the earlier days Of the Republic.
was crushed out by . Judicial fiat coming
from the lips of old John Marshall, one of the
grandest Romans in all the South; that spirit,
| which, in later days, nurtured by an institu-
ton local in ts character, but which gave a
place for ambition, place for power, and
held them together, until that same spirit ac-
! auired such proportions that il dared to seize
| by the throat the Nation ITSELF but thanks
70 our great martyred President, his grand
Lieutenant General aud his aides, we came
safely through the conflict.
The past may be secure, but, gentlemen
three months of united Democratic party in
control of the Congress Of the Nation must
have convinced all patriotic men that the fu-
ture can only be secure through the vigilance
of the Republican party. Applause. We
are here for the purpose of doing our duty to
our constituents and the State. Let US do il
manfuIly and independently and well.
! will not trespass farther upon your pa
thence, but will invite the officers of the Con
vention to come forward, that the business
thereof may be proceeded with.
