BISB EE OX THE STAND AT FABJttEfcS' HALL. Great Enthusiasm Old Cumberland wu tvr ixreeiey df at ieast 20O Majority. Owing to the short space of time at our disposal Tuesday night, to make the mail, our article in yesterday's is sue was necessarily cut off at the most interesting stage of the proceedings. As stated yesterday, Mr. John W. Rose, a prominent j young lawyer of Payetteville, introduced the Hon. D. M. Barringer, who came forward on the balcony. SUBSTANCE OF THE REMARKS OV THtt H0N. D; M. BABRINGER. As soon as the applause, with which the introduction of the Honorable sen tleman was received, by the large crowd assembled in front of the Favettcville Hotel, Mr. B. said that he most cordial ly thanked them all for the very kind manner in which his name had been re ceived by them. Although he had at first hesitated about coming to this grand demonstration, because of some physical indisposition, and bis constant labor in other duties in behalf of our cause, he now rejoiced that be was here to-night to witness this grand success and the patriotic zeal and energetic spirit by which it had been achieved. It there was a city or town in our good old State, that had a deep and perma nent hold on his affections, it was this noble, patriotic, historic this noble. and renowned old city of Fay-1 etteville. Her people had been the I friends of freedom, and civil liberty, in I its truest and largest sense, since the I days of-the Revolution to the present hour. Fayetteville had been endeared to him by the earliest and most pleasant associations oi bis lite, lie was born and raised near the great highwaj oyer which were transported, in the earlier and most prosperous days of this good old town, the rich products of the fertile valleys of the Yadkin and Cataw ba and a large portion of the entire western part of this State. He was familiar with that great wagon trade from the west, which, like rich Argosies had once thrown the fruits ol the labor of the West, into the lap of Fayetteville, adding daily immense .a tit j treasure to tue weaitn ana prosperity once so fully enjoyed by her merchants and her whole community. He was en deared, too, to this city, by the lecollec- tions ot'early and permanent friendships formed with her rising young men in the spring-tide of 'life friendships which ended only by the death of so many ot them in the years that arc gone.

The purse strings of our good old State are still in the hands of honest legislators, (applause") and the PeoPle who pay taxes have still an as- surance that their rights will be pro tected against the vile spirit of public piunaer ana rapacity. (Applause.) Aiinougn mostly uemna tne scenes, a hi m j t 1 and not much on the public stage in the great work, through which we have just passed, allow me to say, without vanity or egotism, no man in the State has been so familiar with the great odds against which the good people, who only wished honest administration under good laws, had to contend han myself. I was ma position to have daily information of all the influences that were brought to bear against us, and how all the departments of the general government, even the ; Post Office Department, - which ought, above all others, to be free, untrammelled and unsuspected, employed all the means in their power to defeat an honest expres- sion of the people of this State at the ballot-box. In the position to which I was called by the State Convention, at Greensboro, by the representatives of the free and intelligent voters of North Carolina, I had opportunities to know what we had to contend against and endeavored, as far as in me -lay, to counteract it. I have tried to do my duty. (Applause.) (And cries of "you have done your duty nobly.") And now, I repeat fellow- citizens, in measured words and with deliberation, that we have achieved a substantial victory against the most terrible odds and the vilest influences and against all that could be brought to bear - against the freedom ot the ballot-box. We have a decided unflinch ing majority of more than twenty on joint ballot, and John Pool is no longer to misrepresent us in the Senate of the United States. (Great Applause.) We have unmistakably five of the eight Con- sressmen from this State, good and true men. that will uo nonor as in ... ... - . the olden time the better and purer days, of the',Republic to our State, (ap- Dlausc.)

(Great applause.) I would not.fellow -citizens, knowingly ao injus tice to any man, much less to a whole people, but I say to you to-night, that irorii information received from various carts of the State, I verily believe that if the ballot-box of the 1st of August be thoroughly purged of all fraud and illegal voting, our State ticket, headed bv Judge Mernmon, is fairly elected by the honest and legal voters of North Carolina.

CL FRIDAY MORNING, and air the imminent dangers which now threaten the liberties of our country. Never did freemen have more powerful motives for exertion and self sacrifice. From one end of the country to the other, the true men of the land the patriots of every party and name, have responded most nobly to the invocation in behalf of liberty, and peace and con stitutional law and government. fAp- nl i- j piause.j : 1 uere is a great uprising an upheaval of the people, a gathering together of the good men of all parties. Applause. Old r Whigs and old Democrats, Conservatives and Rep ub licans, are burying the dead issues of the past, and rallying in defence of liberty and the Constitution, as under stood by our fathers, with full" and statesmanlike recognition of the changes which have been made by the results of the war, and ther inevitable logic of events. Applause. Andwe are c couraged to go on in this great work. The signs of the times are auspicious for our cause. Ve nave longed for peace a real peace, since the sad days of Appo- matox seven Ion r vears since. But we have been I ! misunderstood and vilelv misrepresented at the North. Either from indifference, the absorbing love 01 money, or tne advantage to be gained by partizan misrepresentations, we nave been grossly misunderstood and maligned at the North. And instead of that peace which we had expected, we have suffered all the wrongs of hos tile legislation ' and bitter war-! fare against our people, their interests and prosperity. But the dawn of a better day, a brighter era beams upon us. For the first time, in these seven long years of trial and oppression, we feel that the North is in real earnest for peace and good will between the sections, not the hollow and cant phrase of "Let us have peace," when no peace is meant, except the peace which made quiet and order in Warsaw, but a real fraternity between the North and the South, and the East and the West and every portion of this great Republic, where all men and all States are, under the Constitution to be recognized, only on the platform! of perfect equality. - (Applause.; l nave ielt tnis in my heart and mind, since Cincinnati and Baltimore, when I saw men, heretofore antagonistic in sentiment and opinion, cordially sympathize with each other, and from every section eager to clasp hands across and fill up the bloody chasm of war, and move on together, shoulder to shoulder, in the great strug gle for constitutional liberty and free government. (Applause.) Greeley and Brown.are the Representative candidates of this great party of good men, ready to merge all the antipathies and antag onisms of the past, for tbe good of the whole country, i (Applause.) I wish I had time, fellow-citizens, to tell you all I saw at Baltimore, but I have not. (Cries of go on.) One thing I felt and knew there, that this ticket was the emblem of peace and good-will, il not to the whole world, certainly to the United States, and that under its suc- cess.we at the South may have reason to expect reform,iestoration,reconciliation prosperity, immigration, capital, and above all, that we are again citizens of the United States, entitled to full privi lege and equality with all who claim the proud and undoubted rights of any citizen of this great Republic. (Applause.) How great the contrast between Philadelphia and I Baltimore ! At the former Convention, where the omce holders controlled the nomination, as - 1 V T . soon as it was made as every Doay knew before how it would be made, what a picture did we witness! The drop curtain was withdrawn, and then appeared in the near distance, a man on horseback, in full military costume, booted and spurred with sword and marshal's baton, panoplied cap-a-pie surrounded by none of the emblems of peace, but covered with the insignia of war.- At Baltimore, the enure picture was reversed. When the nomination was made by a free and unrestrained public sentiment, and when the cur tain was likwise withdrawn, what met the gaze of the admiring multitude? Not the War-horse and martial rider, but a simple, and beautiful farm-house with ornamented grounds, and pictur- esquc scenery, a happy family -group, and conspicuous among them the,honest countenance of a man who had digni fied, adorned and elevated his country bv the power of his pen, mightier than the sword, and by a long lite ot devo tion to the civic arts of peace, agricul ture, commerce and manufactures, the rnnsft of education, the study of govern- ment and the good of mankind. ; (Ap - WW plause.) In the loreground ot the one picture, stood a man who was only a warrior and nothing else in life. In the other, a great civilian, scholar, politi cian' statesman, philosopher, every- thing in fact but a warrior who is not only not needed in times of peace, but without knowledge in civil anairs, is a great misfortune to a Republican government. The great want of the times, in the administration of public affairs,' is an hsinoit man. in the Presidential office f "That is so.") Mr. Greeley is emphatic callv an honest man, in public and nrivate life.1 His ... - t - a . . a . fit Ditierest enemy wiu No human being has not gainsay this. ever vet doubted his personal integrity.

("I reckon we do, and paid for it I too.") There is great comfort in thia pros- nect.

Perhaps no man in Ameri ca, now living, has so impressed his character and opinions on the mind of this country or age, as honest Horace Greeley. The judgment of posterity will do him thi3 high hon or. I wish I had time-' to say more about him. I know him well. I served in Congress with him. His very eccen tricities of opinion are all on the side of virtue and humanity and in sympathy for the good of mankind. In time of war, while he was for its vigorous prosecution as long as it was inevitable, he was always the friend of peace with the South, and made no secret ot his opinions. And when the bloody strife closed he was openly, in his first utterances, tor mercy and magnanimity, and he declared his opinions and his faith, in the face of the world, by deeds of courage, generosity and statesman ship, and real friendship for the South and its leaders, that no other Northern mun dared to exhibit-.-He not cnlv went bail for Jefferson Davis, in the j face of an embittered North, but even proposed a commission of good and great men of both sections, to settle, on amicable terms, the difficult questions between us, and named as one our own great and noble and immortal Gen. Lee. (Great applause.) What other Northern man then dared to do so bold and patriotic a deed ? But enough of this, fellow-citizens. (Cries of go on.) No,; I must stop. Greeley and Brown, your representative champions, are states men, patnots, honest men whatever their opinions, they are known to the world. There is no concealment. Raise high, then, the banners which proclaim our principles. Inscribe upon them tratetnity equality liberty. In these signs, you shall conquer. .Let our watchword be, work, work. Organize in every county and township. Upen wide the door for recruits. Rally the veterans,' Stand firm. Be united as dne man, in a common cause, for the good of our f common country. Purify the temples of liberty which our fathers made, but which have been turned into dens of thieves. I know, here, in Fay- etteville and in Cumberland, from the spirit this night 6hown, that you do your duty in November. (We will, we will.) But let us call on all our brethren in North Carolina, for the sake of peace, and liberty, and honest and good government, to do likewise. Our great party every honest and good man in North Carolina expects us to do our whole duty on the 5th of November next. Let this le done and all will be well. (Loud and prolonged applause at the end of which, three cheers were given for the Hon. the Chairman of the Democratic-Conservative Execu tive Committee.) After the speech of Gen. Barrmger, Henry A. I London, Esq., of Chatham, presidential elector from theth .Con- gressional District,was introduced. .. Mr. London said, , ; After the able address of my ven erable and learned friend fromWake, you would "scarce expect one of my age to speak in public on the stage." It was right, just and proper that old North Carolina should shoot the first shot in this the most important campaign ever Known m this country. .North Carolina was the nrst to enlist in the great cause of liberty and freedom as shown by the Me klenburg declara tion of 1775. North Carolina troops were the first called upon for important service on tne battle neid, and why should she not lead now in the great battle for constitutional reform and civil liberty. We are here to-night to rejoice over the great victory recently achieved in our county, District and State con test. We have great cause for rejoicing; what is our political status now compared with that of 1868.; Then a Radical Governor, and full State ticket, a Radical delegation in Congress and a. Radical Legislature : now we have our Legislature and our Congress and the majority ot au,UU0 in lbbo, reduced, ac cording to their own illegal count, to 12,000, with this ratio ot diminution mayi we not reasonably expect to carry the State lor Greeley and Brown in No vember by an overwhelming majority Mr. London then eloquently and' forci- bly presented the contrast of the two tickets, in which he handled the great national gilt-taker with gloves off. Grant had not only received gifts of houses, stock, horses, and dogs, but even bull "purps :" had prostituted his high position by appointing to office his own family even unio the eleventh geheration, for the advancement of their own personal ends. tie warned his hearers of the great danger oi a central ized despotism that would inevitably result in the re-election of Grant. The safetv of the government, the safely of the people, the peace and prosperity of the whole country, demanded the elec tion of Mr. Greeley. There should be no dissension in our ranks. The band of patriots that mctrin Baltimore on the 9th of July, laying aside all prejudices, nominated a life-long opponent of the party, because they knew him to be an honest man. . tie now stands on the platform of reconciliation, and let us all rally as one man to his support, know ing no North, no Suuth, no East, no West. Mr; Lcnaon closed his well- timed and effective speech, amidst the prolonged cheers and shouts or the large assemblage. "The procession was next addressed by Gen. J. M. Leach at the Exchange Hotel, and as we propose to givo in to morrow s issue a synopsis ot the Gener al's Farmer's Hall speech on Wednesday night, we pass with the procession to the residence of J. C.
