Here the perty was met by « deputation from Lansing. Carriages were in attendance to convey the par- * ay thero. The road is of the corduroy type, and progress wasslow. At a village called Dewitt, ten miles from Lansing, a cavalcade of some eighty young meu, in the | Wide Awake uniform, met the Governor's party and | eecorted them to Tapsing. They were ecoompanied by a | ‘band in a large van, and as the procession moved along it _ was irresistibly suggestive of a grand travelling mena- sgerie, Seward being the elephant that all were coming to | wee, and Nyc being engaged to do the comic business, | 6 ‘When we entered Lansing a long speech was fired off at | {he Governor by the Mayor of the city, for Laosing, with | Me three thousand inhabitants, ts a city, and has a Mayor.

It is, therefore, | & matter of the highest consequence whether slavery is | ‘voted up or voteddown. Be sure, therefore, that you Go not give the field to the slaveholders and the slaves before free men are at liberty and prepared to enter it. You, then, come to the great question of the irrepressi- ble conflict between freedom and slavery.

The prospsc! is not alto- gether so pleasing as the scenes in India of which Bishop Heber sings. They have yet many chances in their favor; Dut bow long these will continue ‘# @ serious considera: tion, aud they know this right well. There is time enough to fight and win many s battle before the election comes off. The republicans in this State may lose half thelr chances defore the day of tournament arrives. Already the rural districts are béginniog to waver. The faithful and constant voice of the conservative press, | packed by the powerful appeals of p»triotic crators—who are now speeding with the haste of steam from town to town—is beginning to make an impression little antici- pated by the republicans. They were jooking forward io an easy triumph, in consequence of the long continued Republican Journals Boiting with Rage at the Deseriions | from their Ranke—The Contest in the First, Third and Sizth Congressional Districts—Confidence of the Brpubli- cans—Attitude of the Comecrvatives—The Defalcation of Elder Pech—Looal Causes at Work in the Conlest—Im- mense Enthusiasm Amongst the Masses, &c , dc. Glad tidings for the cause of national unity continue to flow in from the interior of the State, and the iatelligence from the East is as satisfactory as can be expected. The republican journals are getting grossly abusive and rav- ing like a pack of servile idiots. Tha, reaction that is taking place is too much for them. There is s regular po- litical revival in progress in the rural diatricts, and the republicans are going oyer bodily to the ranks of conser- vatism at Ellsworth, Saco, Biddeford and other places All this speaks well for tho patriotic spirit of the people of Maine; but thore is much work yet to be done before wecan be positively assured of a concluding victory. Certainly the chances of the republicans, which before Jooked very bright and hopeful, are now ‘growing smafl apathy and carelessaess of the slumbering masses, Bat | PY degrees aud beautifully less.” They themselves, but the sudden resurrection of a mighty national spirit | F very shame, would long ago have reluctantly given ‘among the farmers, artisans, mechanics and laborers of | UP l! hope in tho First, Third and Bxth districts.

Loud applause followed the conclusion of Mr. Seward’s speech. The meeting was next addressed im & most ‘amusing and cloquent style by General Nye, and after wards by Jecob M Howard, the able Attoraey General of the State. he sights.

Tt was estimated that there were 10,000 pre sent, baif of them being of the fair sex. ‘There were eeveral stands from which apecches were made by local politicians, but the chief interest was cen tred in Mr. Sewarll.

It was practically of no importance to auy ove of all those who beard him whether slavery wae voted up or voted down; but to their posteri- ty it wasof much consequence, as the attaiamest of intependence was.

They wouldthave African laborers, brought here by Boston and * New York merchants.
