LOUIS D. HENRY, IN HILLSBOROUGH


Tuesday proud day for the Democracy of Orange
In compliance with the wishes and invitation of his
friends, Mr. HENRY appeared in Hillsborough Mon
day ast and the next day addressed the largest
bly, that remember to have witnessed similar
occasion. He commenced his speech the Court House,
but ascerained that than half the per-
present unable to get in, and loud calls
made by those outside for him the door, that
all might have chance of hearing him. Upon this be-


ing made known to Mr. H. he Immediately took his stand
the door where for about three hours he rveed the


enton ohs large auditory by the power OF his eloquence
and force his argument together with the most exqui
site flashes of wit and the pures will say
he delighted all, for there there determined
not to be pZeased-but this much believe, there
many Whig who went home terribly shaken in his
faith and if report be true, there many others
that party who convinced error OF their ways
by the array of facts which Mr. H. produced however
this may be- neither his facts his arguments
be answered.


A man of Mr.. HENRY's reputation, and especially
while occupying the distinguished position in which he
has been placed of the great parties of North Caro-
lima, make political without exciting the
public attention 1t would afford great pleasure there
fore, to give the public particular statement of every
part of this excellent performance This may essay
TO do hereafter-lhough this can never do, without
weakening his arguments, by repeating IN other words
what he has demonstrated with such force of reason
ing and elegance of expression. At present have
not time to give even outline of his speech. 1t will
suffice to say, his reputation an orator and states
man was tTiun,pha1tly sustained!


There was no concealment about his opinions-he
spoke "rght out what his views, about all the
matters of public concern, which he touched upon
Even his bercst opponents must, at heart have admir-
ed the lofty independence and fearless freedom with
which he gave utterahce to his political sentiments


The Convention was right when they placed the stand
ard of Democracy in the hands of LOUIS D. HENRY and
bid him unfur its ample folds and go forth among the
People of North Carolina-heu bear it gallantly-tri
1ntph0ntly! He may not be able the whole
Sate having received severe injury from the fall of
horses but so long his physical ability enables him to
appear before the peoples Democracy ,ci hare nothing
to fear. +ti McDUFF.
