hsunfed itself until, tattered and torn
by the winds Of heaven, it ushered in
victory. So with the bright banner
which now foated over him. II would
fly from its perch until glorious Fitz
Lee was Governor OF Virginia.
Abiding to John S. Wise, he asked
If the people Of Virginia could expect
good government with q man at Its
head who charged q coor. iaate branch
of the government with being a set OF
seat-stealing thieves; a man who went
around slandering his people as mur-
derers and assasins.
The dirty mantle Of the cowardly
scalawags had fallen upon William
Malone and John S. Wise.
Then the speaker made metaphor
cal illustration Of what Malone is. He
said Take a ton of genuine old-fash-
ioaed Peruvian guano, 100 pounds OF
assafetida. throw in q dozen skunks.
put the whole in the bilge-wster Of
ship that had been at sea for years
give II all to that eminent chemist Or.
Taylor. whose sharp sight allowed him
to see 100000 of miles to the sun,
and let him put the whole IN q retort
and reduce it to one single drop-and
there you have Malone.
The cheers that greeted Colonel Ay-
lett were deafening, and it was some
minutes before be could resume his re-
marks.
The treatment Of the negro by the
Republican party. the manner in which
they had been used by that party, was
dwelt upon in eloquent and stirring
terms. he showed how the colored
men bv instinct and association, were
the friends Of the southern people until
their hearts were fred with hate by the
hellhounds and hyenas Of the Re-
publican party" not the true and brave
men Of the North. The greatest afro
CITY Of the times was the using Of the
negro to achieve the devilish purposes
Of the Republican party. He said Wise
might toot and blow through Virginia,
but be could never revive perIshed Is
sues Of hate.
Wise had said that the Sd Of No
vember was lucky day with him. He
was born on that day and married on
that day. and be expected TO be elected
Governor on that day. This reminded
him Of the man who cut the wood to
build a ship on Friday. masred her on
Friday, rugged her on Friday, manned
her on Friday, launched, and, as he
afterwards said, :" sent her 10 hell on
FRIDAY" However, he did not want
Johnnie to 60 to such hot place. He
simply wanted him sent home rebuked
on the Sd Of November.
From the commencement to the end
Of his speech Colonel Aylett held the
great crowd wholly in his grasp His
humor and his elOguence were q treat
that Is not often enjoyed. The air rang
with hurrahs for Aylett. - the eloquent
Avlett." and the Union Democratic
Club ought to give him vote Of thanks
for the splendid work that he did last
night.
His closing remarks. in which be
coniured the people to do their duty
come out and vote for Fitz Lee and the
Democratic ticket-were as convincing
as the blow Of a battle.sxe and as
fresh as flowers IN May. He said John
Wise called Malone master-aDd such
: master, Put pair Of horns on
him. stick q forked tail to hun, sprinkle
him with birthstone, put al old pitch
fork in his hand, set him ahre, turn
him loose. and Malone would pass for
the devil anywhere.
In concluding his remarks Colonel
Aylett alluded to the kind welcome he
had received. He referred TO the time
when the whole city mingled Its tears
with him when he wepi over the death
of his brother, killed IN the Capitol
disaster. and coming down 70 later
dsys, he spoke Of the time when Rich
mond stood by him and brave little
Charley Meredith in their long strug-
gle for victory III the CIuverius case.
His perorstion was 50 eloquen; that
il would be wrong 10 mar 1t by any At
tempt at brief description.
His advice in g word was - Friends,
il you fall, fall going forward"
OTHER SPEECHES.

William Lovenstein made 3 brief and
appropriate speech. He was followed

ed the people for putting him in the
lead on the senatorial ticket; Major

great qualification at being ahead in

Mr.. L. 6. Tyler, who, although de-
fested, declared his determination to
pick his flint and Try again.
The great crowd dispersed at late
hour.
