GREATEST MARKET.
"To.day Great Britain is the greatest mar
ket of the American farmer in the world. In
that little island there is not enough room to
raise all the produce that great population
needs. The money that she owes us each
wear is more than enough 70 paw what we
owe her. Our cotton in the South, our to-
bacco aud our wheat and corn in the west,
has enriched nations; has created millions,
and has made cities equal 10 the Oriental
| ones of old, and all the while has impoyer-
Ished the sons Of labor who produce thai
wealth. Applause.

rising Of our people as eyinced by the

fore . O'Clock, and Mr.. Terrell, the national
lecturer, delivered very sound, practical
address. He agreed with Senator Daniel
