This wuz the last feather. The bearers mite hey staggered off under the mrkiss, and them wich clithed 'onto it first, . but this addi shun to their bprden was friteful. It flnisht em. Groanin;under the weight, they swayed like's leaf in the wind—like a Majestic tree [ilia :about to fall. They struggled's- minis to I maintain themselves, but allln vain. ' A breef struggle, a simprit gasp, theygtve up, and, their knees doublin up, the whole concern came to the earth with a squashin sound wich letters can't six - pie* and the half decompos ed ream sorter fell spirt. Raymond and Thiirlow Weed, with lied bin hangui, round,, got out from under jilt in time to save their selves. The. Southerners got out from under the Putrid mass, the almost smothered by the stench. Nallandighant and that class made lite nv it, ethey hed bin around it. . It stag gered JohMon some, but he hed bin accus tomed to suthin appmximatin very close to in the old times, and it didn't seriously affect, him,. but poor Randall, Seward; and Welles were smothered and died. I wuz tryin to pull Randall's corpse out, when the effort I was makin awoke me. I aint altogether certain.but that that dream means suthln.

During the- few months that have elapsed since the Itecenstraction oft were passed,•this Committee has been earnestly , at work. For the that time °ppm.- -tunitY offered for discussion in the South of the principles, purposes, and history, of e Republican organization—the party of s imnel risa.

Wish this small amon t the Committee has sent several hun- 1 dyed pitiand documents through tlie South. It haaSmilloyed over seventy; active and' in telligent speakers and organizations, who have been at work in the unreconstructed States, and to a limited extent in Tenneasee.

A Republican organization exists in each State, the representatives of which are in constant - correspondence with this Committee. Union League Councils are being rapidly formed. Oil,r agents , are all empowered and directed td aid the ()minim- d d Grand , Lion, anas the President's office is ] located in thi3 city, we are enabled to tiring about hannoriy of 'purpose and effort.— Xhire ample means at the Committees dis pas a' I, there would be no difficulty in widely extending its operations. The demands made far exceed its means, present and proe-. per:dye. A large number of intelligent men, white and colored, arc ready to - enter the field, most of whom could be advantageously employed. Our funds have been altogether devoted to circulating saheb* reading mat ter and - employing speakers and organizers. They will tontinue to be soused. This Com mittee cannot undertake, the establishment or support of Republican newspapers, al though that important agency demands at tention. When the Military • bills became law, there were in the South but fifteen Re- publican, two' only of which were &lies. There are now 90; 20 of which are . The speediest method of establishing a igorous Republican press, without which rib permanent succese•can be obtained, is to give the Republican party controle of the State organization& This object can be per manently seeuredprovided its importance is appreciated and, corresponding efforts are made. The present campaign is but a con tinuation or the war. It has, - however, as sumed another shape. It is no longer the shock of armies,• but the conflict of ideas.— The thunder of guns no longer rends the sky or makes the earth tremble; but the ; results for which our best lives were given are still trembling in the balance. We contend for the principles - for' which we fought. We seek power, because we believe in our prin ciples. They cannot control unless money, the sinew of any struggle, is used to aid those who 'work for that success. Shall we lose an empirofrom want of this material aid?— Shall we„'vieto:ious in the field; by defeated at the ballot-box? It is not possible. The needs of the hour with those who desire to see the entire South, lately, cursed with Sla very-and blasted by revolution, marching "to the music of the ,Union" in the Solid column of Republican States, are active work, ample means, and unfaltering faith.- Your Com mittee have faith, and can work efficiently.— Means only are lackingto - carry each one of the unreconstructed State* at the electionsl pro vided for by Congress.. If adequate funds are furnished, the party can be so organized as to ensure the electoral vote of each regen erated State for the Presidential standard-' bearer of our great party. The loyal people of the South are very' poor; they are with us in every desire for success, but they need assistance, both of money for political organ ization, and of knowledge, for the best means of effecting. it. Slavery crushed the white friends of the nation, as well.as opposed its colored allies. The Rebellion impoveiished them as well as those who rebelled. Shall we let them again be sacrificed for want •of means to send men to them to enable them to help themselves? In the spirit of the foregoing resolution, we ask earnest and im mediate work in obtaining fonds: Pressing calls are constantly being made, to many of ' which we are wholly unable to reapond. In view of the great object for-which we strive, we assure our friends that $lOO now will ac complish far more than $lO,OOO will twelve months later.

I- have- known him as stu: dent., as, - teacher, as -lawyer and 'as. Judge; and what lEl:more, Aurnig all that . time, I have ' know* him as an 'intimate, personal friend.' I have known him more thoroughly than I have ever knoty,n any other living 'mini . axcepting my own brother, and i say here tcvnight, in presence of this,' large audience, that, even' Were I so • disposed, I could truthfully speak, no ill him. • _ Julge Williams is of the good old revolu tionary Whig stock, which achieved; our na tional independence in 1116, and from his an ticestors he' has inherited a. sturdy love of ibertyi, independente, freedom and national u*n, which. has been strenthened by the greatevents of these later times. He .wag in the beautiful valley of the .Conneet icat—a State which has . given birth; to siich men as . Henry Balt • thenfselvei) thtin to be dgPendent upon. the paternal ,sarbags t .and after baiing turnished his son with the means of acquiring an eduation; he sent him forth from the paternalhome; at an early age, to rnakeihis way in the , world and fight the bat tle•of life unaided, tare by 'his •own energy and talents. . In college., Judge Williams gave promise of his futtire success. He became at once one of the most popular men of his class, Moved and respected by all for his correct de' , portment, his kind antisocial disposition, his high sense of honor, his great re,:gfird for truth, his strict integrity, and ._for his entire freedom from envy and jealouiy., He imme diately took.high rank al a. scholairrespecial ly as a speaker; a ,writer, a logician, and a metaphysician, which• rank - he maintained and increased during his collegiate course.—. He gradimted at Amheri3t College, 31a.ssachu 'setts, in the summer of 1837,and so proud has our - alma mater been of this one of her favor ite sons that she sonic dine since honored ' herself by bestowing upon him the honora ry degree of Doctor of laws. After spending the intervening time hi teaching,, he corn- , meneed reading - law in the ollice of Ex-Chief ' Justice Lowrie, of .this city, in the spring -.of 1839, and was admitted to the . bare, of this. county' , in Slay 134 L He practiced ' his - pro fession with increasing succesaifrom' the time of his admission to the bar, as a . partner with his preceptor, until the latter was appointed Junde of the .District CoUrt of this county, and then with the late Wm. 31. Shinn, until elevated for.the first time to his, pi6ent po sition iu the fall of 1851. •I As a lawyer, Judge Williams was a cau tions, safe, honest and reliable. counsellor;. and an earnest, eloquent and generally suc cessful advocate. He endeavored to keep his clients out of the law instead of getting them in, but .when, In, with good cause; alibis energies and abilities Were bent to bringing matters to a favorable issue. His dealings with his clients were ever characterized by justice ; and faithfulness. While he would never knowingly take a badsase for the sake of the fee, he never gaverip a good one be cause his' client was unableto pay him. His _intercourse with his professional Ihretlieni was always kind, courteous and honorable, never...resorting to ;what is termed - "sharp practice" to gain an advantage over his op ponent..' lied he remained at the I bar, few would have met with greater succeSs in that most difficult, laborious and honorable pro fession. '. • - At a large and respectable Convention of the old Whig party of this= county, held on the 4th of Juno, 1831,. Judie Wilhams, then young in years and in his pmfession, and without judicial experience, without solicita- tion on his part, was nominated by acclama tion, for the responsible _position which he 'now holds, and was placed upon the judicial ticket of that party with the Hon. Walter Porward,as the candidate for President Judge of the District Court, and Hon.; William B. NC lure as the candidate for President Judge of the Courts of: 'Common Pleas; &c. llis opponent at the electiqk in the fall was Judge Shaler, a lawyer of amlnent ability and learn ing, who added to his other qualifications foe_ the position an experience of several years upon the Bench,to w Lich the Democratic par ty sought again to elevate him. The result of the eleetion showed that the action of the Conyention in nominating Judge :Williams. ' without a dissenting voice, was peculiarly ac ceptable to the people. He ran ahead of his ticket in the ward in whiCh he lived, in ¶'the old Democratic -Third Ward," and in the county, beating his able .. oppoTnt 2,245, 'while Judge Forward'A major ity- ver Jude Hepburn was only and Judge M'Clure's over James S. Craft, only 1;117. So well ; faithfully, impartiallrand satisfac tory did Judge Williams discharge the duties' of his office, and so learned, upright and use ful a Judge did he prove himself to be, in the ostiniation of all men, that at the lend of his first judicial term - or ten years„ in 1861,1 in was nominated by acclamation by the thett two. great parties of the county, and wasse•elected without oppoaition .froni any quaher.
