There wes no7er such an outpouring of the rnasc8 in North Carolina as that whuh last night greeted our distinguished guests. Not only were the good and true people of the city out in force but large delegations from the country, some even from distant por ions of the . Stat, were assembled to testify thefr appreciation cf the magnificent ticket, National, State and Congressional, which has been pre sentcd to them It was the opinion of one of our most distinguished visitors that it was the greatest outpouring of tbe peop!e known in North Carolina since tke war. There were at least ten thousand persons present at tho demonstration. The various ward clubs assembled DrcmDtly at the hour designated and a little before 8 o'clock, un der the active management of Colonel Jno. J. Hedrick. the Chief Marsh al, and his very efficient aids, the pro cession began to move. The ward organ izations were out in force and the display was a magnificent one. The column was nearly a half-mile iu length and it was greeted by tbe applause of the assembled thousands and by beautiful pyrotechnic displays all along the line of march. was a beautiful sight, and the ladies weie out in large numbers, adding their pi es ence and their graceful applause to tie other attractions of the evening. Tbe various wards were all well sup plied with transparencies, with appropri ate mottoes, many of them terse and forceful, which we cannot describe in full for the want of space. The procession was led by the young Democrats of the Hancock, Jarvis and Shackelford Club, with the Cornet Concert Club in : front In a wagon drawn by four fine horses.and after them came the ward organizations in the order of their numbers. The Fen der Democrats were also in lino to tha number of one hundred or more, led by that staunch Democrat and true hearted man, Capt. Dick Paddison. The Ship of State was a beautiful feature. It was a boat placeed on a wagon and drawn by spirited horses, rigged as a ship and with a crew of eight sturdy young Democrats. She was appropriately .christened the Constitution. The beautiful banner painted by Mr. C. E. Burr, of which we have spoken previously, and which has been so much admired, was a feature of the occasion which attracted much at tention. The line of march was on Third street tt Chestnut, on Chestnut to Fran t, down Front to Nun, on Nun to Third acd up Third to near the corner of Dock, where a large stand had been erected for the spoukers. As soon as the distinguished speakers had ascended tbe stand and ' the various organizations had gotten into position F. H. Darby, Esq , Chairman of the County Executive Committee, called the rnoefcng ts order and nominated the following gen tlemen as officers of the meeting, who were unanimously elected, to wit: President Col.

Gov. Jarvis' all A'-d manly form was then . seen to step to the front of tbe speakers stand amidst wild cheers and hurrahs from tbe vast multitude of people in front. The cheers having subsided and quiet being fully restored, the Governor turned to the sea of upturned faces before him and began his speech. He said as be rode along in the profession to-night and saw the pretty streets of Wilmington with its air of prosperity, the fine houses . with the beautiful ladies gracing the porticos aid bestowing smiles of approval upon them as they all marched on, It lecalled to bis mind 1 the first visit be ever paid to Wilmington, when, at the bead of a company of brave Carolinians he arrived on a November evening and they were orJered to bivouac in the suburbs of the city, where he made the ground bis bed and had for bis covering the broad cano dv of heaven. The Governor then re- ferred to the Cape Fear Beet ion and the commercial and material prosperity of Wilmington in the most complimentary terms. He said that he was j aware that there existed a feeling here that he, as Governor of the State, did not feel the same interest in this section that the Qov ernor ought to feel. Bat, said the Gov ernor, I declare before Him before .whom I have to answer for all things, that there Is nothing that I can do or could do for the people of this section con sistent with my duty as Governor, to the other sections of the State, that 1 would not gladly perform that there was no de mind that the people of this section would in ike upon him that he would not give to them readily. The speaker said during his legislative experience of many years there had come many petitions from WiU mlng'on and New Hanover county and he was always their friend, and voted in that way in every instance. The Governo t mched briefly upon the sale of the West ern North Carolina Railroad, and said he firmly believed that the sale of that road would yet redound to tbe benefit of Wil mington in some way or other. The Gov ernor said be was not here to present any claims cf his own but to present the claims of the Democratic party. His Excellency then referred to his competitor; he said he had winged his flight away from him atd had refused to keep up their joint discus sions, but. said the Governor, I will tell you some of the questions which I pro pounded to him dining our joint discus.. sions. First he asked Judge Buxton to inform b'tn what principle of the Consti tution, State and National, the Re publican party had left inviolate and had not trampled under its iron foot? and be had neverreceived a reply to that question. The .Governor made an earnest and eloquent appeal to the old Confederate soldiers who bad followed Mm beneath j the starry cross, who had marched with him shoeless and foot sore, to meet him at the ballot box on the 2 J day of Novem ber next and to cast their ballots for the triumph of the Democratic party, which U the party of law and order, the consti tution and good government. Governor Jarvis then made an eloquent appeal to his bearers to cast a vote for the noble r i i i m I 1 specimen ot a sojuier wu wuea iue smoke of battle had cleared away and who when the Confederates had laid down their arms and submitted te the arbitrament of the god of war and furled their banner forever, came lor wara ana saia, lei us re turn to peace, to prosperity and let the chasm be bridged over. The Governor then closed bis speech in an eloquent peroration upin the National ensign, amidst tremendous cheering and hurrahs for Jarvis. Governor Jarvis' speech, notwithstanding he was in bad trim for speaking, being hoarse and very much fattened. . won him lots of friends and tj -. made him as manv votes In this section. I Tremendous cheers now went up for Vance! Vanctl Vance the crowd must and would have, and at - last the old Ret el' war-governor moved forward The cheering which j rent the air . then a1 soon as Senator Vance made bis appear ance was deafening an l lasted for several minutss. Governor Vance spoke for about five minutes and, then told the crowd he wculd speak'to day, that owing to his affection of the throat he could no possibly speak in the night ah. Tbe Committee on resolutions then 25, 1880. NO. 156 ported through their Chairman,Capt. W.S. Normp.nt. the follwirg resolutions which were unanimously adopted : Be it Besotted, By the people of tbe Cape Fear section, in mass meeting assembled, tbat we reaffirm our adherence to the great principles of the Democratic party, as enunciated and set forth in the national platf-rm. Besotted, 2d. That we most cordially endorse and ratify the action of the Dem ocratic party at Cincinnati in nominating for the omces of President and Vice Presi dent of the Uuited States General Winfield Scott Hancock, ot Pennsylvania, and Wm. H. j .glisri, of Indiana. Besotted. Zd, That -in Gen. Winfield Scott Hancock, our National standard beaii r, we recognize the profound states, man, true patriot and 'superb soldier.- one whose past life, both civil aud military, is witnout spot or Dieraisn: and whose elec tion to the Chief Magistracy of this repub uc wm allay sectiodal strite, heal the wounds of tbe past, and secure to ail tbe blessings of constitutional government. Besetted, Attn That we haU with pleas ure the presence among us to-night of his Excellency Thomas J. Jarvis, Governor of North Carolina. j We welcome him to the Cape Fear sec tionas one of North Carolina's ablest and truest sons; as one who, in the dark days of eighteen hundred and sixty eight and nine, when the Republican party held supremacy in our Legislative halls, and when misrule and ruin were the order of the day, stood like one of the old guard. battling for his State, and for the rights ef nis people. As our candidate for re-election, we bid him God speed in the noble and effective work he is now doiLg, and pledge to him and the rest of the State ticket our united and hearty support. 1 Besotted, bth. That .we pledge ' to our Congressional nominee, John. Wj Shackel ford, of Onslow, the earnest and undivided support of the Cape Fear Democracy, and commend him to the voters of the Third Congressional District as one eminently worthy of support. W. S. NOBMEXT, O, H. Robinson, MABSDEX' BELLA.MY, T. H. McKoy, B. F. Mitchell, Committee. Col. B. R. Moore then In a most grace ful and appropriate manner introduced General J ames Madison Leacb,as the orator who is known in every town and Ham let throughout North Carolina. General Leach came forward and was greeted with loud applause. He said bad he consult- en his own feelings or judgment he would not to-night address this vast assemblage f people. But what did it mean, this great outpouring of the people here tc- aight It meant a love of country, a devotion to North Carolina and her Inter ests which every true son of this grand old commonwealth should feel inspired with. The speaker then proceeded to re view the Republican party both Individ ually and collectively and it eyer a party, or the individuals who comprise a party, were skinned both politically and figura tively speaking, the Rads got It at the hands of General James Madison Leach last night. We cannot pretend to report his speech, ac time and space both alike forbid our doing so, but General Leach fully sustained his reputation as one of tbe finest stump orators in the State It was this same old war horse and cam paigner, J. M. Leach, who in 1876, after fighting a good fight for the Democracy of his own Carolina all through the State, crossed over the line and went into South Carolina at the earnest solicitation of the people there, and helped Hampton out of the slough of despond to which th Radical thieves had plunged hi State. The General's speech last night8 was exhaustive; he touched upon every heme and gave Mr. G i ar-field Hail Columbia wrong end foremost, on every tack. General Leach was well received and highly applauded throughout his en tire speech. The next speaker was Mr. D. H. M Liean, the talented young geuuennn rom Harnett, who Is district elector on our National ticket. Mr. McLean, as CoL McRae said in his introdu:'.i u he would do. give a very agreeable surprUe to the audience his oratorial powers aie good and his manner as well as the matter of his speech was most excellent. The Democrats of this Congressional distrlc performed a good part when they elect d so worthy and competent a geatleru n as Dan Hugh McLean for their cUttor. Mr. McLean said he felt embarrasa.! in speaking on an occasion Iik3 thi when be had been praoaded by so many distin guished gentlemen and that he would net detain them. Wefj-.w sorry we cannot give a full report of ail this rising youn orator said. At the conclusion of Mr. McLean's speech loud calls were made for Rnaom and tha crowd would not listen to any one eise. uenerai luuuom inen aroee and with that calm, quiet, senatorial dig nity so natural to our dUUngulihed Sena tor, and which so well becomes him.

Senator Vance then proceeded with his argument and traced thj course ot the Republican party through its whole life and career, both State and National not forgetting its Credit Mobillier and Do Go er candidate, Garfield, and salt petro Ralph P.Baxton up to thejprescnt time. We hadtaken copious notes with tho hope that we might at least present to our readers some. of the vigorous arguments of our distinguished and j honored follow citizen.
