GRAND RALLY OF THE . 3d E jVI O o !R .A. o "Y" ! Orangeburg Wide Awake ! I MASS MEETING iiiiiiyiii ??i? 1000 MEN IN PROCESSION!!!! ? On Suturday last, the j various Democratic Clubs of the District assembled at this place, for the purpose of a G rand Ratification Meet ing, and a good time generally. Although the weather was very unfavorable, being quite raiuy and unpleasant, the onthusiasm of the Democracy overcame nil obstacles; and tho re sult was the most imposing civic procession tljijt has. ever passed through the streets of Orangeburg. There were one thousand men in line, including about one hundred colored ? Democrats. Banners were Hying ; music dis coursed its enlivening strains; and decorated wagons drawn by line teams added to the charm of tho occasion. Crowds of ladies, with their.usual patriotic ardor, undaunted by the rain, graced with their presence tho route of the procession; and, at tho stand, cheered ora tors'and audience with their smiling faces and bright eyes. Tho Stand was tastefully and handsomely decorated; how eould it be otherwise, when fair woman's hand hud traced the course of evergreen's and woven the wreaths, which were displayed, in profusion of beauty, around on.overy side. Artistic skill contributed also to the adornment of the rostrum; and a noble eagle with outspread wings, upon a national shield holding in its beak a scroll, with the motto, ."Our Rtjits! Our Liberties!" ad ded to the;attractiveness of tho scene. Too much praiso cannot bo awarded to James F. Islur, Esq., of tho Committee of nrrungemonts, for his attention to ovory detail connected with the preparation and decoration of the platform, &c., which was under his oapecial care and ' ili1*'-:--'- ' Ij - ' i ? supervision. But lot us start with tho procession from the Railroad, whero under the direction of Capt. V. D. V. Jamison, Grind Marshal, ns*i*ted by Colonels P. A. McMiohau! aud J. C. Edwards,' | it passed undor no iuimcnco Soymour :nud' Blair flag, and marched to tho inspiring music of a Goo band, through tho principal streets .to thojjStund. Arrived there, the inoettug was opened with prayor\by; RoV, A. F. Dicksun;, and Colonel A. D. Frederick, Chairman of the Com mitt co of Arrangements, then announced the following officers of thejrueoting, viz : rB EVIDENT. *V non. THOMAS W. GLOVER. vice-kiesidenVs. Cnpt. F. M.

Judge Glovor, on taking tho Chair made a short, but stirring nddross, alluding to tho Democratic Party as the only party which could ensure peace, prosperity and safety to our oppressed laud. He thcu happily intro duced to the audience Hon. A. P. Aldrich, who addressed the meeting ns follows. SPEECH OV HON. A. P. Al.nitlCIt. Mi. President, Ladies and Gentlemen: I congratulate you that, despite the inclemency of the weather aud the difficulties under which you suffer on account thereof, you arc true to your duty to your dear old State at a time when she needs all your help. I feel despon dent to see the apathy in some sections of tho State, but daro feel so no more after witnessing this gathering. Here arc j'oung and old, men and women. Such a demonstration iu the 2'hird District, where neither rain nor storm can impair your zcul, will not be confined to Orungcbuig alone, hut will spread beyond its limits and wake up old Burnwcll, and soon will be sent hack her lo?d acclaim. Why are you hero to-day 1 We have been promised pence For three years we have had that peace, which is worse than war; n peace destructive of liber ty aud manhood; and wo gather that the only opportunity afforded us is on the third of next November, when we may dissolve this crush ingjpencc. All over this country is being felt tho insiduous cheat of sueh a peace, and we of the South, feeling it our duty, are determined to discharge it by voting for-men whose record shows an unflinching and persistent regard for the constitution of our fathers. And I believe if every white "man in South Carolina will do his duty as a whito man we will carry tho State in tho ujixt election. Is there naught in the hallowed memory of Suint|^ Jjfsi'' Ma rion, and those patriot souls whosu swords j&jtf? - ^U^'^rl^dTn^^ Re ? ^member them, and do your duty, and we will ;cnrry South Carolina for Seymour and Blair Uta suro as tho. Democrats will sweep New .York. Against what, my irlcrids, do ire con tend 7 Ignorance, peculation aud > thieves. Thank God, these robbers who are foisted upon usaru from abroad; a few to the manor born have gone over to tho Radical party.? But arc you disappointed with their conduct? No, no. No one expected anything better of these scalawags. They got into high places by sharpness, but they havo fooled themselves for once. It was a. desire to enjoy office, conscious as they were, ovon in their debase ment of being unlit to fill the places of men. I was talking about scalawags, and I'assureyou that, for a long time. I could not understand the full forco of this word. I consulted news paper men, but failed to elicit information, until I hit upon an old dictionary. It meaus "the refuse of a herd, lame, sick, joor fellows, that no one wanted;" a fit name, suroly, for even tho carpet-baggers, nogrocs and meanest of humanity despise them. I again appeal to every man in the sound of my voice to do his duty. Here, in Ornngcburg, wo stand on classic ground;* shall wo forfoit our claim to the heritage of glory bequeathed us in the past? Up, then, and perpetuate that record by acts bofitting the sons of patriot sires. But somo say tho white men are all right. I tell you tho whito men are not right until they havo used cvory endeavor to carry every vote they can for Seymour and Blair. Not only vote yourselves, but see that every man who can docs vote; unless you do this you fail in your duty to ancestry and posterity. Do not stand stili nor doubt ; "he who doubts is damn ed." This is no ordinary eloction that ap proaches. Wo fought four years, and were vanquished. Wo laid down our arms and came home. Sinco thou to what havo we not submitted ? Degradations, insult and wrong. We have cried peace ! peace ! but have found no peace. Our enemies, guided by hate and venom, have goaded us on ; but, thank God, tho old party which always stood by the con stitution has Again rallied; and at their iuvito tion yonr delegates met them in Convention in Now York. Yon know their action. The main plank in their platform is their discision that tho Reconstruction acts aro "revolution ary, null and void." They saw that if ten Statos woro to be trampled upon, any State was in danger of tho like fate, and seeing this they called, on. us to assist in averting from them the ruin which was our portion. Your representatives there pledged overy man to do his duty, and when wo pledged you I knew you would bail with joy the occasion when you could do that duty. Look at these desolated fields, yon armWss sleeve, yon crutch, whore leans a gallant hero?sco the Vacant chair by the lonely hearth, whore weeps somo widow for her orphaned little ones, or aged mother for tho son Who fell at Liberty's Shrine ?look at this peo.plo so constant ;tb thoir. pa rolo, despite all their cruol pcrsecutiou.^Aud our women too?'God bless thom-+how^ havo thoy stood by us?they who buckled on'' tho sword when duty called us forth, now p*|$ieut ly suffer and muriner not. Strong mei^""* aro they not your support iu - this your hajar of trial? Is not woman's smilo your rainlJuw of pcaco? Con such women bo tho mothors cf slaves? Dare you lower thoir regard? I think hot 1' Men, you soo the courngo of your womon; go forward and do your duty,iun? I do not foar for the success of Seymour- and Blair. I beliovo the Democrats will carry tho election without tho help of South Carolina, but how proud will each of us fool wh,sb> the victory is won, knowirg that each did hisduty. Do not forget that South Carolina ha-jjfever been sluggard, she has always stood high oh the roll of honor. Our great men aro not dead? they animate the nrcu I sco before nis?; I doubt not that you will do your duty, andper suado others to do theirs. Wo have at. Qfjjfum ,'bia a black and tan affair, called a Legislature. > (Tremendous roars of laughter.) Whajj|eort of a thing can he be who would acccptjipf a position at -die hands of this crow? Cor?SSoly no gentleman could do so. There was a bjtoth or, uot full brother, though, who did gojfver, but ho is not of our church, and wo must ex cuse him. (Laughter.) I am sorry forihim. Grant says, "Lot us have peace." Well, who wants war: not wo. Oh no. Wohuvo been too budhy whipped for that. Wc hnv'nt time for war; wc want to rebuild our.<wasto pluccs. If the Democrats carry this election, they will not want to fight. We arc noMhe war part}'. It is these fellows who luivc^ccn up to their elbows in the treasuries.. They say, "Elect Seymour and Blair, and.you'll havo war." Why, you can't do anything to please them. They aro a party whose'tirst inception was fraud and tyranny. What said Gen Gillcm, when they complained that'the rebel Democrats were marching under United States flugs? ''You d?d fools, I fought these men four years to get them to inarch under that flag, and now you object to it." [tfcoro the eloquent speaker quoted from the .speech of Daniel Webster in 1850, predicting^Jthc ruin of the nation if the party mom; in pbWcr succeeded, a quotation fully sustaining-^the prophecy of our lamented Calhoun, and, said he, is it not verified too true, too true?j> I almost fear, he continued, that we nmy'-tkiyc to pass through another Red Sea of revolution, but there is a prospect before us of promise. Forward, then, let us do our duty pcuccfdUjy, aud we'll go over "dry shod." Tbc Nnirth aud West say-march up ; if war conies, lot its consequences rest .where they belong. Tj\cse colored people owe it to their interest nswivell as' ours to vote with us. and turn awa-Wghfc the villains who have lied to tmdSj^Hr?f~'\ th nV Why, Liucoln's proclamation 'VllS worth about as much as Shcrman>-Utrrr'<tTt7c8. The first title^colofo?! malT^That you rcccifcd ?nt. ye>ur"irccdom was given you by your old mother, Carolina, in Columbia, in 18G5, Ask any one if you doubt it. Even a Radical if you can find one who can tell the truth. It was impossible that you could bo free unLss I the slave States changed their constitutions. This they did; hence your freedom is tho {ift [of your old masters. How many of tho jro miscs of the Radicals havo you realize 1? i Where's your forty acres and your mu'j? You'll never get cither until 3*011 work forj it as wo havo done. Look at your- Corbin; he has fixed himself right snugly into scvoial offices, and tho dirty dog's greod isu'tyet satis fied ; be wants more. You and Corbin are like Jim and Joe, who bad a/masmih. They put it on the fire to cook. hiid%mi fell nslcop. When the possum was done Joe thought ho'd cr.t just a little bit, but twus so nice he oto all except a little piece of fat. ' Lor a uuissa," says Joe, "I must fool Jim." So be rubbed Jim'.' hands all over with the fat, and then his lips, and laid down as if asleep. Jim got up sniffing the savor}' fat, and pushing Joe, said, "Wn do possum?" Wa do possumV replied Joo; "juook at you band aud you mout, aud dc bones, and you ax mc wa he da!' "Golly," said Jim, getting up, "I must be eat urn, but I don't feel um ycr," laying bis hand on his stomach. And so it is with Radical promises. You must surely have them, but can you ring any change in your pocket*. Work, then with those who are your friend*, your old nasters; they who own the lands, and intend to own theni, and, my colored friends, you will never regret the day that you quit the cursed leagues which bold you in. slavery. They say of us that wo hnto "that flag." Can wo, fellow-citizens, hate tho flag which Washington bore against our country's foes, which Jackson waived at New Orleans, which Taylor and our immortal But lor upheld on many a gory field in Mexico; the flag beneath which lngraham protected an adopted citizen against a tyrant's decree ! Oh, no; we rally beneath its folds, we rally as Democrats, and there we hope for restored poaco, power and prosperity. Tho speaker retired amid tremendous ap? pluuse, whilo the band occupied a brief ml torval with excellent music. At the conclusion of tho address of Judge; Aldrich, Cononel Ilaskell. in an eloquent and patriotic strain, enchained the attention of the immense throng, and his remarks wore* continually greeted with shouts of applauso. Next in order war Cul. A ikon, where labors in the cause of Seymour and Rlair are well known in our District, and whoso animated eloquence on this occasion, fully sustained his reputation as an able and effoctive orator. II EM All it 8 OK COLONEL READ. ? i : Colonel* Head, of Anderson, was next intro duced, and regretted exceedingly that the in clemoncy of tho weather and latouess of the hour prevented him from doing justice to tho important occasion that assembled us togethor. He knew, by reputation, the people of Orange burg; thoir gallantry and nobleness of charac ter could not be confined to the district alono; ho had met her sons in tho halls of legislation, and on the ensanguined field had ho seen the noble Dantxlor, the* ohivulrio Glover?true types of your population and our Stato's pride. He had not sought the position for which his friends had nominated him us candidate, but ho would not shrink from any duty which he could render his dear old State. He was from the mouutuins by accident merely, as tho Rad icals hud put his district in with the Third Congressional District boca iso it had a Demo cratic majority. Thoy wanted to neutralize the oiTcct of that majority by bringing his dis trict where Radical votes preponderated. Hcnco he stood before the people of Ornngc burg as n candidate for Congress in opposition to HogO, or Hog (Radical candidate). He was sanguine about his district, os the white men up there wore resolved to rule, and tho negroes would stand like men at tbo polls, or be in tho iTeld, where they ought to be, pick ing cotton or digging potatoes. Tbo Colonel1 with happy strain, paid n fitting compliment to the ladies. His description of tho horde of legislators nt Columbia convulsed tho throng with laughter, and he begged tho negroes not to trust them, as all their promises and pledges were lies and oajolory. His "fish machine" anecdote upset the gravity of tho crowd. It was a patented affair to be put upon the din ner table; the cooked fish was brought in, put to the machine, and the turning of a crank sent the bones flying away, whilo the meat went to the eater's mouth. But un*u\i fortunate wight tried it who was loft-handed. He turned the crank the wrong way. so the fish flew away, and all tho bones went into his mouth. That's your fix, colored people; the crank don't turn right for you, and said he, if you have any sturgeon about here it will not suit that machine, for its meat is too hard and coarse, and isn't fit for your dogs to cut. Ho honored tho colored Democrat, and predi cted for him a happy home among us in the future, when the scalawags and carpet-baggers would bo exterminated. Ho showed tho colo red people how the taxes affected their prosper ity, and the demoralizing influence exerted upon them by the Union Leagues. Why said he, to retain such a people in power will be to burden oven your old laying hen?every egg will bo taxed. The game of grab.and plunder was all on the side of the carpet , JnmgerH. He illustrated his forcible remarks Bbttftil-^tlM'iltti"!'' ?'''cnlot'v,.(|.. A^^^^"^Ijjli PHfeiTa uable hearted/ursiwu^n to aftend to his Stock, &0.

The Irishman accordingly fed the poultry, and among them was a large Muscovy duck, who shovelled in the feed with his spade-like bill. '?Be jubcrs," said Pat, "that's not fair," and he fed the chickens apart from the duck ; but Muscovy came along again and spooned up the feud as before. "Arrah, but I'll fix ye," said Bat. Catching the duck, and taking his knife, lie pared the duck's hill to a point, and and putting him down said, "Now my honey thry your hand with the chockens." So said the speaker, you must trim Corbiu's bill: he's I spooning up everything. The Colonel spoke I in a humorous und eloquent style, covering all the point*- of interest, and ami when closing was the recipient of a tasty wreath from a young lady close by, whereupon be thanked in felicitous words tho fair donor, and pro posed three cheers for Seymour aud Bluir which tact n treuiondous shout of response. Pleasant Goode of Columbia, and ?Fran cis, of Charleston, two whole-souled colored Democrats, next addressed the meeting, and were much applauded. Their remarks seemed to impress seriously the colored persons who were present; and, we trust, will be produc tive of good results. The following resolutions were then unani mously adopted : Whereat, Great political issues arc now pending, and ntsueh periods it is the duty of all citizens to meet together to strengthen soul with sdiil, and there to give declaration of their sentiments upon such questions as af fects the futuro welfare of themselves aud their fellow citizens ; therefore be it Rhsolmli That the Democracy of Orango burg District, in mass meeting assembled, look upon tbo Presidential contest now pending as one upon which hangs the most important con sequences to the cause of civil liberty, to the prosperity of tho nation at large, and to tho happiness and peace of our homes and lire sides. Resolved, That, we cordially endorso, in every particular, the platform adopted by the National Democratic Convention, hold at the City of Xew York, on the fourth July last, and hereby ratify tho nominations there mado, /uf Uoratio Seymour for President, and Francis 1\ Blair for Vico?President of the United States. Resblv'ed, That the occasion calls for work, and wc each hero pledge an earnest, hopeful and unremitting co-operation with tho Dem ocrats ol thi* arnl our sister States in their efforts to maintain truth justice and the cons titution, by means of tho^ballot box, ut tbo approaching Presidential election- and to this end, wo individually pledge "our best efforts in our respective neighborhoods to secure tbo largest possible vote for our standard bearers, Seymour and Blair. After tho speaking was over, the tables were visited, and without confusion or disorder, overy guest found his appropriate place.? Twenty-five tables, each under chargo of a par ticular club, were loaded with substantial, and ovon luxuries, aud no one went away hungry, or dissatisfied. Tbe supplies were ample to have fed twice the number, aud hid the 0 weather been moro favorable, twice tho uum fjcr would have been present, to enjoy tho day. As it was, however, it was a glorious buc ccss,?a great day for the Democracy of old Oraugcburg. ORANGEBURG PRECINCT, DEMOCRATIC CLUB.
