makes no pretensions to oratorical
abilities, but spoke in a calm, digni-
fed manner, giving a straight, for.
ward husiness.like account of his
efforts to serve the people in con-

and the applause that greeted him
showed the earEestness aud enthusi-

Nichols, Captain John Avery and
Judge John Clegg then addressed
the meeting in the order named,
making forcible and telling speeches
that evoked frequent applause on
the part of the audience.
Ex-Governor Nichols, whom the
presiding officer introduced as the
Moses who, 10 1876, led Louisiana
out OF Egyptian darkness Of radical
oppression and Republican misrule,"
was greeted with a tremendous out
