broader significance and indicate the
arousing of the people of New York to

myself with renewing my acknowledge

(Cheers.) In our political divisions We
{ look to the States, and ordinarily the
county is undistinguished. beyond the
limits of the State of which it is q part,
but there are few counties in the Union
like st. Lawrence, in New York, Lam
caster in Pennsylvania, and Ashtabula
in Ohio, that by the intensity of their
convictions and the force of their ac-
tons, have borne themselves to the
front. so far, that they have become po-
liticai units IN the contests of the ma,
ton, and if you get their temper stirred
and their energies called forth, the con-
sequence has generally been that tbs
party which has deied them has beer

is aware this year of the responsibility
that rests upon her. Yes, am glad to .bt
