MY. FRIENDS AND FELLOW-CITIZENS--I
thank you for the honor whieh You have
conferred upon me by calling upon me to
preside over this meeting. I came here to
listen and not to speak, which is to me a
much more agreeable task. Bat upon such
an occasion as this I cannot refrain from
saying a few words. Gentlemen, you have
before you, in this contest for the Presi
dency, the men.who fought for the protec
tion of the Government ton 'one side, and
those who endeavored to destroy it on the
other side. On the ono tilde you have Grant
and Colfax, the nation's friends, and on the
other side Seymour and Blair, who are in
the interest of those who attempted to take
the 'life of the nation. The Dethocracy
among other charges, say we have burden-
ed the Government, with a large national
debt. I ask, gentlemen, who forced that
debt upon us. Was it not the same Demo.
°ratio party who are now oppos
ing ea? They cry out for retrenchment.
Ihave atWays observed one fact conneet
ed with-these deinocrats, g_entleniten, and
that Is they always out for re
trenchment when they are out of office; but
let them to office and" yon hear no more of
retrenchment from them. , = He then refer=
red to the extravagance of the. demotrats
when _they were in power, and - mentioned
the municipal government of Now 'York,
whit:ate said cost about 522 per man, while-
the expenses of the national , government:;
would not amount to ;10 per 'man.
The Denitleracy say that oar candidate is
not a -statesman..f It is not the man who
Plaitea l lons speeches who is the,best states
man. Gen. Grant does riot' make king
speeches; but always speaks >to the point.
- .After some: krtber remarks in regard to
the candidltat he read a dispatch from Hon.
G. A. Gre*,'announcing that Mr: Matthews t
who was expecti3d to address the meeting,
could not be present. . ;

Mr. Miner' took the• stand, and inn fair

severe affection of the throat f which had,
rendered his voice so weak that it would be
impossible to make himself heard.
F. B. Penniman, Esq., being present, was
called upon to'address the meeting.

ed by the audience and made one of those
