We again on Monday night had another gIo-
-ions Wbig meeting. The Theatre was literally
filed to overaowing. The first tier o. boxes was
crowded with the grace and beauty OF our city
upward OF two hundred ladies were present Join-
ng in with the " Glec Club IN all their songs
The :. Clav Gusrds assembled in front OF the
Capitol virh tyenspaIencies with appropriate mot
toes and emblems, such as "Our Cause IS just

Polk, known only at the Hermitage and detes'td
by his own peop!e-Henry Clay admired bY the

Of Col. F. S. Hunt, and drew up In front for the

then proceeded to the Theatre. Arriving at that
place, the company opened ranks TO the fish1 ana
left. when the ladies and o.hc!s maTched through
into the Theatre and took ttelr seats IN the front
circle of the boxes, the Clay Guards " occupy

die1ce with another beautiful song, the ladies'

Gen. P. HENRI was :hen introduced TO the au-
djcnce as the orator d the evening and in lengthy
speech of nearly an hour and half, lntersPefs ID
with numerous anecdotes elected oft and frequent
applause, and numerous bursts Of laughter.


rh.s meeting is by far the largest ever witness
cd in this city, not excepting Tie most epihusaS
TIC of 1910. Our citizens are COW making aup!c
preparations 10 go to Canton, where Is TO be held
on the 18th great Barbacue, where ct least their
,Gili be upwards ol 5000 people. From present
indications cannot refrain from being Impressed
with the belief that Clay's prospects are truly
frightening, and many are of the opinion that the
Wings may possibly carry the State or SO reduce
the Loco Foco mnjDrity that that party cannot
claim victory in this quarter. The result will
settle all speculatlons this matter.


The Loco.Focos of this State have issued an
address, the most redeemng quality Of which Is,
that from It's great length 1t will insure the uni
yersal go.by OF their party and It's readers. 1t is
Curious document, concocted by many Loco
Foco brains, and written by many Loco. Foco
pens. have not read it, but simply glanced over
some parts Of 1t, and or absurdlly and nonsense
1t surpasscs any thing that ever emanaied from
such source


The Locos in this quarter complain most bit.
tery oi the Wings betting, yet the Executive OF
this State haa made several bets, and he IS sworn
- support the Constitution and Laws, and IS ioun1
to be among the FIRST 10 violate them. The Locos
have endeavorcd a, two different times to get up
large and interesting meeting but have entirely
failed in all their cfiorrs. At no time have they
mad in attendance moro than thirty or forty at any
of their meetings. The great and enthusiastic
meetings of the Wings are truly agonzing to their
ropes, and the prospects OF Polk, Dallas, Texas,
Dlsunon, &c.
