;democrats -present-in their faith, as
.the 'frivoli ty, 'the weakness, and the
None ideaism of the opposition were

Thu could exclaiin, 'in the.words. of
a celebrated Judge to - a lawyer at
the. close of a lengthened argument:
--You have. wholly 'removed. any

probably not take it; moreover, we
-should be very sorry if they did.

'Rand, an several banners with pie

Men and boys was gathered together.
Mr. L. took hisntand at 'the railing
In the Court Room, stating that he
`found it difficult to speak across a
large open epace, an implication that
it was scarcely worth While to 'come
-on-from Washington to address apdlit

should be rated as an imp of the low

,not imagine.—
The _audience" felt relief when the
speakerconcluded, although they pre
tended otherwise.

apparently felt that he'had heatr

—he must make the best he could
out eff the mixture. In attempting
to 'do so he faredlas those usually do
who are plaeed4n“a similar predica
ment. He only made matters and
things worse. -No one, probably,
doubted his heart - being in the cause,
but many of his remarks showed that
he had not as yet basket:hip his head
for a political speech. Stleast Rich
ard was not himself again. After es
tablishing a lineage for his hero by
showing that a Lincoln figured on the
Woody plains of Yorktown, he traced
the history of the rail-splitting hero
-nit° the -Ohicago Convention. Mr.
TiirfeAlewas`b'Orn within a short dis
tance of the home of Henry Clay.-I--
But finding that the curse . of slavery
would not permit a poor boy to ex- .
pand, he emigrated to Indiana at 6
years of age. • In the first place we
note, that if slavery would allow Hen-
Ty r Clay to expand why should it not
Also give the ittme chance to Abra

having emigrated at 6-years of age,
the probabilitteS ire that he had not
, formed many ideas `of the compare-
live elances f 'r achieving greatness:in
free States over slave States. Mr. K.
then informs us that his six-feet-four
hero "read the Deelarition of Inde
pendenne by 'sun ligelit ' and studied
the constitution by eat - Idle fight."--
This merit is one of }position. In
, Lebanon he might have had the ad.
vantages of moon-light and gas-light,
as well some soe lights from tar, cohl,
&c. We note these things to -show
'that Mr. Villinger had, ndt expected
to speak—was unprepared—but felt
I
-it necessary to do so to retrieve the
evil that had been done, and that in
doing so he -had a laborious work as
well as a had cause. The . assertion
that in the Senatorial•contest in Illi
nois, Mr. Lincoln had "a , large major
ity`of the popular vote," Mr. K. will
be willing, no doubt, to admit as a
'slip of the, tongue.- He acknowledg
ed Hamlin to have been a free-trader
betone he joined the Republican par
"ty,'htWthat since he wee a' most ex
`eillent protedionift. If Dentoorats
( can be ißepti6licans withottt Changing

ifot-4oy, What is Mr., Hamlin now
who has changed according to Mr.
Killinger. If the Republican princi-
I ples now are the Democratic:, Princi
ples of ,old, Mr. Hamlin must be a
nondescript; Or what is worse, ttii
-itholitionist--1-(although be need not
be a crazy one)—as the .opposition
party are all of them unconsciously
tbecoming under - the leadership of
ench men as Lovijoy, Giddings, Sew
ard, Lincoln, Wilmot, Gerrit Smith,
Garrison and others. .
Mr. Killinger concluded his lengthy
reraarits by reading a series of reso
ld-tie-us, after the adoption of which,
some cheering was done, and the
meeting adjourned. As stated above,
we Were pleased with the meeting,
and trust they will continue them.—
We would suggest the next speaker
be Giddings--'--then Gerrit Smith—
then Garrison-then Fred Dodglas--
then somebody else, but by all moans

THE LEBANON ADVERTISER,.---A FAMILY . NEWSPAPER.
tip Our neighbor of the Courier;
Washington correspondents; and the
opposition party generally, are in fa
vor of overland mail service to Cali
fornia. To further. -this object
. the
House pissed a battik wiii,k, by Hen
publican.pressure, which is a pretty
fair specimen of what they can do
*betrtitt of power, and also an indi
cation of what maybe expected from
them should the country be. so unfor- ,
tunate as to be again.- aiffieted - with
them in power. All their efforts have
an eye single to effect for the next
:Presidential election. They Cafe noth
ing for the expense, just so• that they
can get votes. The. Post Office bill is
especially tormed by them for the put.-
tOse of injuring the administration,
- and ilikbugh it the Democracy. , They
make the-most extravagant ,and un
necessary provisions in the law. The
administration must execute the law,
and no matter whether the expendi
tures are millions -- - I \vhether they are
Iright or wrong—it cannot nullify the
iniquity. As indicating to some ex
tent the nature of the bill passed by
the House, - and approved . cf by the
Courier, including especially the over
land service, we will: cite a single fact.
Among.the, mail routes which it re-
stores is that from Kansas to Stock
toe, iti California. For`thiaservice
'the PoSt Office Department paid at the
rate of eighty thousand dollars per -an
num.: For the nine months thatit was
in operation the returns' showed that
tliere. were :transported - in this mail
between Kansas and. Stockton BUT
"ritREE LETTERS. AND'TWENTX-STE,ifEWS
-14 ;ERS),...The Service was useless,; as
it was extravagant, and-WtS tiscon
tinned by the Postmaster General.—
The House has now - ordered it to be
restored, although there are four oth
er routes, maintained at vast cost,
connecting the valley of the Missis
sippi with the Pacific,. and 'although
0ver,8 . 25 miles of this rolite r a mail is

pay $BO,OOO for the carriage 'of three
letters - and twenty -, six newspapers
duringthe ensuing year, or K at least
1
for an amount of serviee which:is by
no means likely greatly to exceed this.
We have no doubt that some-of the
provisions of this bill will y - et, be sha
ken in the faces of the Demoerate be
foretbe election by members of Con
gress'in their harangues, and through
the columns of the Courier, as °widen

In the populous States of the Union,

refuses to make appropriations. . The
$80;000 squandered upon the Kansas

Mr. Covello interposed that he had in his posses
sion names of a hundred persons as witnesses, but
as in every instance they had no distinct °Cane c-
Lion with the government, ho declined , to sum.
mon them. It, appeared further from the record
that Mr.` Winslow applied for these witnesses in
April, but they had never been summoned, Ile
had been informed on atithorily said to be relia

sums of money had been used to secure the elec

Mr. Corode, to this, replied that he would vote
to subpoena Mr. Winslow's witnesses, if that gen-
Gateau could trace bask the tree of the money to
the government, and as Mr: Scranton Was here,
be would summon him, Mr. Winslow's request
was refused by the oomosittue, as was also Mr.
Winslow's request that this Matter should be
submitted to the House. At a sabserplerit period
Mr. Winslow wished-to eubpsene, McMullen And

Mr. Winslow then moved to aulmoma witness

understanding that they would prove corruption

objected, on the ground that those gentlemen bad
no connection with the Government. -This re
