The Hon MIR. GEORGE also made short speech.

skirts Of the assemblage, by Greeley, the 'Pough-
keepsie Blacksmith" and other ilnerant orators.
These little independent spouters had evidently the
most fun and enthusiasm, for shout, yes, screams.
cheers, laughter and bacchanalian outcrys were
constantly bursting iiom their hearers to the eyi-
dent discontinue of the "godke" Dan.


Altogether the affair did not by any means
come up to our expectations. The whig party
will, OF course, say that there was at least
fifty thousand people there. But our estimate

gathering and from the display OF feeling and en-
thusasm, it is very evident that the wings are pre-
pared to make a desperate fight in the 'Empire
State"
