There was u small meeting in an a Joining room, addressed by Mr. Miliken and some small erators, There wasa great noise everywhere, but there ‘was little or no enthusiasm; aud there was an absence of the mercantile aud wealthy classes. the crowd being ‘made up, for the most part, of the masses and the ward politiciams, There was a number of -quare tricolor trans- parencies, inscribed with the words “ Unionist’ on cach side, and numerous rockets were thrown up, to the ‘amusement 6f the crowd, who seemed to take more in- | ~ terest in the fireworks than in che apecches of the orators. | In taking the chair Mr. Zoriiax Minis made a few re- | marks, returning thanks. He rl!uded to the fact that he | had been a candidate fer sheriff but said that his com- | petitor, Mr. Kelly, having rucceed-d in get ing the no- mination to that office, no persou would vote foc him with more plearure than he would Olea) The chairman concluded by exhorting all good whigs to strenuous efforts in the support of the regular candidates, | % sll the way down, trom General Scott to the lowest Con- | Mr, Eaastv's Bnooxs then read the address, | ‘The Hom.

On the battlefield, where great acts and deeds were done by others, did he ever do anything himeelf? Never. And yet this man the people of this co are now called on to vote for, while they turn about and abuse the old hero Scott. What for? Then some of them had the audacity te call him a coward—coward!
