Especial telegram to the Dispa

LEXINGTON. VA, September 1.-To-dny
(court.day) large crowd assembled.
Colonel William K. Aylctt, Of King VIII
liam county, made an excellent and sound
ADDRESS. II was conservative in tone and
temper, and produced good and lasting
impression. John :. Wise did not put In
m appearance.
After Colonel Aylett had finished there
was a joint discussion on the court green
totwcon Hon. John Randolph Tucker and
Mr. Jacob Yost. Iost made a feeble speech.
IL was commonplace and void OF interest,
and exhibited a woeful amount Of igno-
rance OF the general issues OF the day. 1t
consisted OF appeals to the working ciassc,
and to race preiudices. Mr.. fuckers re-
ply was overwhelming and crushing. He
completely demolished the Young man, and
no one felt the keen satire OF Mr.. Tucker
more than did Mr.. YoSt himself. After
diSposing OF Mr.. Yost Mr.. Tucker adj
dressed himself to the real issues OF the
campaign in a magnificent speech which
carried the crowd by storm.
The Cameron-,iahone rupture has had
the effect Of demoralizing the Malone parry
here TO an extent which will increase the
Democratic majority. Many Of the citizens
OF Rockbridge who have hitherto acted
with The Ecadiuster party will not act with
the Republican party.
