The Ravasee of the Vellew Fever A latance Needed SuKsestlons to Oar Citizen. jt --- - , . No people jwithin the broad confines of our Union have more Cause to be touched with commiseration and sympathy for the deplorable condition jof our j sister city of Savannah; novf suffering so severely ! from thej terrible scourge of yellow fever, i than those of Wilmtngton I She has been tbrpugh the fijery ordeal once, and that once was sufficient to leave an impression which neither time nor changes can ever efface from the men: ories of those of her citizens who survived j be fearful iniroads of the dis ease. We have had abundant evidence thai the sympathetic cord among but pee-. pie has been touched, and touched deeply, at the sad affliction which has befallen our Southern sister, and whenever the name Of Savannah has been mentioned, since! the disease was first known to Sexist there, ex- pressions or neameii sympatny nave Deen beared oh a 1 sides. Now the J time has i come if. for that sympathy to take ! a more tangib e shape. With the inde pendence characteristic of the people of the Empire State of the South, and espe cially; of Savannah, her citizens have bat; tied; manfully with the teirible scourge, asking no assistance from her mote fortu nate neighbors, and respectfully declining such assi8tauc! when proffered; until 'at last jthe time ' has'r. come when aid from abroad is abJsoMely pecessary. ' ,J From a resolution of the iiuncvolent As sociation; published n our columns, ind from a telegram received from the stricken city yesterday, jwe learn that they are now .not only in need of funds jo enable them to afford prope : care ; and Nourishment to the1 sick and estitute, but that an appeal is made for sue i assistance. We hope and believe that tbui appeal will not be suffered to go unheeded by the peop e of Wilmingj ton. j We feel jthat the ' vib rations ,01 that sympathy which has so evidently and so frequently touched the hearts of our people will bow find their way into their pockets; and that the substantial aid now asked for will be forthcoming. We suggest that steps be immediately taken to raise ai funiMor this purpose, and, until an organized effort can he made to this end, we would state that any contributions left at the office of The Mousing Stab for our afflicted neigh bors will be promptly forwarded ' to the.

The Democratic portion bf the popula- tibnj of Wilmington was ablaze with en thusiasm last night, the occasion being a grand ovation in the form pfj a torch-light procession and other demonstrations in honor of ourj distinguished j Visitor, Hon. Ml W. Ransom, who had been announced to 'address, the people at this place. ' accordance with arrangements pre viously announced by Mr. C. H. Robinson' Chairman of the County Executive Com mittee, the various ward clubs, equipped with banners,' transparencies, 'torches, &c., assembled at the head of the Market short ly after 8 o'clock, where; under the direc tion of Capt. j John L. Boatwrigbt, Chief Marshal; with; bis aids, they, were formed in Une. The procession, iocluding carriages containing the . orator, Hon. George Davis and oilier? friends, headed by the Cornet Concert Cluhj then moved up Market street to Fifth, and up Fifth to the vacant space beiwieen Chesnut and Mulberry streets,, known as t the "circus lot," where the speaking was to take place, t ie crowd, as they passed under the newly erected De mocratic banner, suspended from Messrs. Green & Planner's drugstore and the build ing of Dr. Carr, on the opposite side of the street, rending the air with shouts, j - -. . Bonfires blazed all along th( route, and the sidewalks were thronged ivilh people. Arrived at the stand, which was festoon ed! with Chinese lanterns at d decorated with United States flags, the open space was soon filled by the largB and enthusias tic: crowd, comprising probably from two thousand ' to ' two thousand five hundred persons, including quite a. number of our colored population. 11 V f "': Mr. Charles H. Robinson, Chairman of the County Executive Committees,) neatly introduced the orator of tbj evening as lint .na .nil foWlifiil frisnr Rtmatnr r W Ransom." . I ; SENATOR RAKSOM standing erect, one of the noblest speci mens of the physical and intellectual man hood of this country, addressed his eagerly expectant audience as his friends," not fellow partisans, but friends in whom he trusted and by whom he was proud to bb trusted. Uis magnificent eye 'learned with intelligence and the splendid military form and bearing of the man served to make an imposing scene. North Caroli ouans are well proud of such a Senator; sosuperbm every requirement of the finest and loftiest ideal. The speech that followed his familiar; and candid introduction was one that cannot and ought not to be repeated except liter ally, word for word, and even not then, for the. soul of the speaker's nanner, . the psychological light that played over the Whole of his truly magnificent address and informed it, with life aud splendor and ppwer is not to be limned by ! another and ruder : artist on coarser, canvas. Few i - r ' I i , . - speeches, we are satisfied, have -ever pro duced upon 'a 'miscellaneous audience so 'strong am impression; For : candor: i for earnestness, ! for scope of - argument, .for. philosophy: of conception and skill of join ture in all its parts the " speech .was doubt less never excelled in Wilmington.! The Senator said he brought no jewels of speech to glitter in the presence of hungry men. Vhat was required of: hit i was, sound doctrine,; facta that could sot be denied, truths that would appeal w ,th irresistible force to thejintellect add got home to the heart and conscience. '- v i - i Only indicating the heads of the lopics reated, and not pretending to furnish all f these, we proceed. The Senator stated !hat this was an occasion when he would ike to peak of all his ; fell)W -country men ,s fellow-patriots, but the truth of history forbade, i The government was framed by bur wise statesmen-fathers as a constitu jtional government, having for the protec lion of the 'citizens living uader it certain (checks and balances. Thejtriune idea of 'a President, a Supreme Judiciary and a 'Congress of Representativss was deemed the very perfection of theory in regard to government. The feeling of neighborship, the sense jof right and magnanimity, the wisdom'; of statecraft all tended to an ad ministration of all these several powers in Ihe interests of no particular sections, i but in the j joint interest of thie whole mighty Union of . the Statea nSThat do we see ? A Supreme Court with not a single judge on it a Southern man4, a President with not a 'solitary member of his' Cabinet actively and personally identified with Southern in terests, bne would think the four millions' and a hal f , " of coloredZ Republicans and:theirwhitpj Republican friends would, insist on havinz bne representative at least : r " .. , i . .. . ...... in One Ot tnese co-oruinaieganmenia ,o, the governments Js it npta. degradation, a humiliation that them is such a selfish mo nopoly of power; sueh a-slraniftless disre-; gard of alt'.that "baa heietofpi'bii freV garded by Americans i aa consistent with true-Republicait ijrincipies -ot. a Justlgard for1 thci ifiifety and welfare Of : this great na' tlon r Could intelligent white Republicans in the South brook this insolent refusal to ; i with & share Of power and influence f Gen- era!

The Northern Democrats were all our warm and sincere friends. ! Who desired! peace, f Not the Republicans, but the - Democrats,! who come to us with hands outstretched and a smile of welcome on their faces. Then followed1 an eloquent plea for a truly Xar monious Union.! The whole land longed for peace and reconciliation. The country' was vastj in its! stretch of Pacific and At lantic seaboard,! and it was a great coun. try in men, in cimate, in resources of the mines, the workshops, the farms. Let it be-nnited in a bond pf fraternal ; justice. Let the North give to the South places in the Cabinet and?on the Supreme bench.

The injustice stopped not here, but ex ended to all the: country in the burdens of too great, in the profligacy of adJ ministration unparalleled. Look from the Penobscot to the Gulf.

Seven mil-j lions ; had been stolen that were acknowl land accounted for, . but what of the untold i millions unaccounted for that had been misappropriated by faithless and dishonest officers f j The Senator considered the subject of tax ation as illustratiag tile hard times that are upon us, Gov. Tilden had computed the cost of the expense of running the general government for a single year. It was five thousand millions of dollars. The country produced just epough to bring ' us every' year twenty-five millioBS of, dollars in debt if we had no State aad local taxation. Add, ihese and bankruptcy was the prospect. This was what Republican rule was doing and had been doing ever : since its advent into power.
