The Court House was full to overflowing with

back, and in conveyances. Enthusiastic as the
meetings of the Club generally arc, this even
ing eclipsed theni all. . Cheer after cheer rang

thjir favorite Representative dealt his heavy

ed three-fourths of the sum demanded.
Now hero Is the point. If tho Republican
Senate, forced by tho Democratic House ac
knowledges at the end of ten years that tho
government can bo ran for $30,000,000 a year
less than they hare been doing It, should it r.ot
havo saved that rxpence itself without being
forced to it? 30,000.000 a year for ten years
since tho war amounts to $300,000,000, which
lho Senate hereby acknowledges that It expend
ed extravagantly.
If lho Democrats have dono this much In one
term, they might do . more if they Itad tlto gov.
in their possession, and I propose to change my
vote for once and sco what the result will be la
cutting down somo of the expenses that have
scarcely been touched as yet. 5

sort of reception ha met, be replied : The
shabbiest treatment you ever saw. It
looked Jike those mountaineers were
about to run wild over Jarvis. They met
him nearly everywhere with bands and
carriages, and would escort him like he was
king, and cussed if they didn't leave me
standing I ke a fool to get to the speaking
the test wsy I could. It was the same way
after the speaking was over they would
crowd after Jam, shake his hand and of
fer to take him to their homes, while only
a few niggers snd sorry-look in g white men
would come up to1 me. Such treatment
was not calculated tn make a man enjoy
himself overmuch, you know." Chorion
