If any one went away from the ground hungry it was be- cause they would not eat. At 2p. m. the crowd again assembled around the speakers stand, swelled now toat least one thousand persons and was addressed by Judge James B. Gantt, of Jefferson City. Too much cannot be said in praise of his address. It was plain. No one could mistake the speaker's words. It was manly. He stooped to no mean partisan clap- trap or party spirit. It was honest. He spoke from the heart that which seemed to come as though it had been pent up all these years and now burst forth like a voleano. It was loyal. He has been fully reconstructed. He loves the flag of his country and is proud of her history and her institu- tions. He was heartily endorsed by every Ex-Confederate, and so far as the writer knows, by every other man. It was a red letter day for CAPITAL, Transacts a general banking business. mers, merchants and the public generally, all funds committed to our charge.
