Though possessed of a sonorous and per-
vading voice, after speaking few minutes
the orator found it necessary to abandon
his stand and go over to the midst Of the
audience.
Mr.. Breckenridge at the outset paid q
handsome tribute to this State, and said he
could but with difficulty dispel the idea
that he was appearing in dress parade, as
he could not believe that Virginia needed
Indictment to her duty to Democracy after
the pains and perlls she had suffered III the
past q years. He said he was rather i'm
PEELED to speak in Staunton that he might
have the pleasure of bearing witness to the
splendid stand taken by the Hon. III. st.
George Tucker in the National Congress
and he declared that while the representa-
tive of the 10th district had been introduce
ed in the halls Of National legislation as a
chip Of the old block, the Hon. John Ran
dolph Tucker, the young Congressman from
Augusta had easily and early shown that he
was quite block himself.
The speaker in tracing the lineage of the
pa ottlI IL Neto VI lHsuiJ I"
party of dignified and commanding princi-
pies and aims, but that it had dwindled into
a conscienceless syndicate Of a few leaders
who regarded legislation as a function to
be exercised for a favored few. He ac-
knowledged that there We're sober men and
true in the &. o. P. but asserted that
these men Influenced the policy Of that
party as does the fly perched on the wheel,
influence and control the wheel OF the war
chariot. The demolition and destruction
of the Republican party as presently con-
stituted, was the sine qua non for the
safety of our institutions. The Demo-
cratic party believes in the brotherhood of
man, and added the Kentucky orator, as a
my religion leaves off and my democracy
begins. II believe in God the father"
therefore every man is my brother, my
equal brother, and 1 am a Democrat be-
cause am a son of God"
The speaker ridiculed the arrogance and
presumption of the Republican party in
speaking Of this government as oar govern
ment, when it is the government of the
people and the G. o. P. has not had the
popular vote Of the people for years.
The tariff question was then taken up by
the speaker who riddled with forceful az
guments the paternal pretensions of the
monopolistic party, and the speaker in
closing his speech turned the search light
Of his incisive intelligence on the force
bill, which he showed was not dictated by
the needs of our governmental system, but
is the cool, calculating, money-making
machination of intrenched protected plll-
tocracy, who feel that popular power is
about to over-top it.
The speaking over, the immense con-
course of about 5000, betool themselves to
the tables, where the roasted OK, together
with the sumptuous baskets Of substantials
furnished from the city and county
satisfied the physical man to the full, as
the bounteous mental pabnlum furnished
by the Kentucky orator had fed the intel
ligences of his audience. 1t was Il great
day for Democracy and Augusta, and the
immense audience was an earnest of the
splendid determination of the Democracy
of this section.
