Governor Vance spoke to an audience not half
as large as that in the yard. His speech was
IN substance the same as that delivered in the
same town on Friday week, and consisted in
the main of the advocacy of practical State
sovereignty, untruthful accusations against
Gen'l Garfield, and anecdotes of questionable
character. His auditors were not enthusiastic,
for the fierce noise that roared below seemed
to half unnerve them. Occasionally they
would give spasmodc shout but it quickly
subsidized, despite the most praiseworthy efforts
of Judge Harris and Capt. Sibert to make it
long drawn out. Towards the close of his
speech Gov. Vance took occasion to go out of
his way to state that the VIRGINIAN had not
told the truth when it said that he arraigned
the republicans for encroachments upon the
constitution, whilst giorying in the fact that
his own State had openly violated tins cnnst-
tuition by a reputation of its debt North
Carolina, he declared, had not repudiated its
debt. 1t had simply cut it down to 40 cents
on the dollar We dare say it will occur
to people in this section of the country that to
scale debt go per cent. is somewhat an inn
pairment of the obligation of a contract and
consequently plain and direct violation of
the constitution. Gov. Vance can take rest
and come again.
