Senator Conkltng'g Speech.
The speech of Senator Conk ling, of
Now York, in Cooper Institute, on the
evening of tho 23dH was an ekborute
aud masterly effort, hoth as to its do
fenso of Grant and c.iticism of Mr.
Oreeley. Ho began by speaking of tho
violout character of tho campaign a ud
tho systematic calumny which has bceu
heaped upon tho President and his ad
ministration. Among other things ho
said :
"A war of mud and missiles has been
wa?ed for months. 'J he President, his
family, und all nearly associated with
him have been bespattered, and truth
aud decency have been driven far away.
Every thief uud cormorant and drone
who has bceu put out?ovcry baffled
uiouscr for place or plunder?revery man
with a giievuncc or a grudge?all who
have something to make by a change,
seem to wag au uubridled tongue or to
drive a foul pen."
Ho fpoke of and proved the con
spiracy between tho Democracy and two
or three Of the sore head Republicans,
who styled themselves "Liberal," and
gave the secret of Mr. Greeley'? disaffec
tion in the following :
"new york, April 9, 1871.
"DEAR Silt : It gives me no plea' ?
to advLic you, and tho Committc of
which, you are the head, that 1 am
obliged todoclinetho part assigned me by
the State Committee iti the proposed
reorganization of the Republic tu party
of our city. Had a little forbearanee
and concilia'ion bcon evinced by the
appointing power at Washington, 1
think t'ois might have been different.
Yours, HORACE GREELEY."
Turning aside a moment from Senator
Conk ling's speech, it is proper to insert
here what the President says was the
reason he could not conciliate Mr.
Greeley, by appointing his friends to
office. Here it is, as reported b}- a
Herald correspondent :
"The truth about Greeley is. ho has
been always surrounding himself with ,
men of disreputable character and want
ing to put thetu into important Offices s
I could nut provide for all of them, and ,
most of them 1 could not a fiord?the
country itself could not afford?to put 1
iu any decent place. I had afterward
to remove, for iucompcteacy, or miscou ?
duct of some bind or other, almost every
man to whom I gave au appointment on i
his revoniin udation, such persans as
Camp nnd Lamunt hud these people,
One man (Ferguson) the Senate very f
properly, 1 believe, refused to confirm. i
M r. C reclcy^ would hayejilU?d.lke^&*6jJu?
I"Service with all the worthless men in
the country, if 1 had let him ; but 1
would not let him.' 11 hut is the trouble."
I The President realized his duty to
the country to bc paramount to the per
sonal coneideratku of conciliating Mr.
Greeley.
Senator Coukling dwelt at length up
on the charges of gift-taking and nepo
tism, so industriously and maliciously
; hurled against Grant.
Of the continual howl about bis i
spending n few days at a time at Long
Branch he said :
"It is eight hours from the White
House to the cottage, whith two mails a
a day aud a telegraph every instant.
Nothing can occur, however suddenly,
demanding his attention, without hi*
being witbiu immediate call; yet this is
the occasion of constant hullabaloo.
Gov. Huffman leaves his State and
resides at Newport, R. I., for the Sum
mer. Mr. dames Brooks, though mem
ber of Congress, goes to China ami
Japan, not returning even when Con
gress meets. Gen. J.iC-ksou used to
spend weeks at the Rip Raps, in Hamp
ton Roads, where naiotolligcuco could
reach him fvom Washington in day*,
ai d then only by special messenger, nnd
whence he could u< t return for days, if
sent for. No telegraph, railroad, daily
mail, or even steamboat, plied there
then. President Adams, separated from
Massachusetts by a stage coach ride of
many days, used lo spend weeks at his
homo. Washington passed muco time
Ut Mount Voincu. and even that was
further removed in communicating with
100 Capital '..mil -wn x^iui.C..
'?Rulers iu all countries have, felt at
liberty to tarry a distance from their
official re sidence during a portion of the
year, but no examples, oxperience, or
common sense eland iu the way of the
cruciiicrs of Grunt.
"Tho public, however, will bc satis
fied with one fact, viz : that no instanco
has yet been discovered or pretended, in
which anything, however small, was
neglected or left undone, because the
I Preside ut was absent. This one fact
answers1 a hurricane of abuse."
He bhowed that the true und final"
test of an administration was its finan
cial results, nnd here Grant Ins becu
pre-eminently .successful.
In enlarging upon the civil service
reforms which havo been recommended
and introduced, by Grant, he said that
no man had been retained an hour in
tho service of the United States after it
was known that lie W?8 a defaulter.
We shall give more of this anon.
A good night's rest at this season of
tho year ia a perfect luxury, and can bc
obtained by indulgiug in a Cold spougc
bath before retiring.
The Itaibeeue at Howe's Bridge.
Although none of tho speakers who
wore expected from abroad wero present
at tho barbecue oo Saturday last, the
occasion was, nevertheless, ouo of marked
interest and importance. Togothcr with
a lively crowd from Orangoburg, wo
started for the beef and muttou early in
the morning and arrrived there about
11 o'clock A. M. Tho duy was ex
tremely warm, and our tiip was any
thing but refreshing. But the anxiety
displayed by the thousands that were
present made us forget the thermometer
for awhile, and thus we experienced a
temporary enjoyment of a short forgot
fulness of the burning ray? of old Sol.
Electioneering was the order of the day.
The place selectod^for tho occasion was
iu a large oak cud hickory grave a few
hundred yards bcyoud Howe's Bridge.
Under and around the truuk of oach of
these silent listeners, clustered a smuli
crowd of politioiaus, anxiously discus
sing the situation, and canvaasiug the
chances of this und that candidate.
Impromptu speeches were made by
many a local orator, uud the little con
gregations of not moro than a dozen
wore often hoard to exclaim a loud as
Bent to what they said.
Bu: to hurry on we will pass over
these little minor incidents of tho day.
Ahout half-past twelve tho Committee ou
Arrangements retired and prepared a
programme of speakers, and ? reported to
the Chair, who was Mr. V. D. Bowman, ,
Mr. Andrew F. Browning acting as
.Secretary. Upon Mr. Bowman's call
iug the vast audience to order, for the
purpose of explaining the object of the !
mcctiugjjt strong objection was urged 1
against tho manner iu which the
speakers had been arranged. To save i
time and much boisterous wrangling
mother committee was appointed, whose (
report seemed to give more satisfaction ; 1
nnyhow the speaking commenced. 1
Thompson II. Cooke, Esq., was the\a
irst gentleman introduced. lie com
menced by portraying oloqueutly the o
lituation of the day in national politics, c
5aid there was a mighty fight upon o
[tcpublicapstaud it wa? thfiirtd?6nJft<W J 4
into the contest with that manliness and
bravery of spirit which had character
ized their actious in tho past, lie
showed how Horace Qreeley had desert
ed his life-record, and in l/is old age,
exhibited to the country a weak nets and
treachery cxtrcmoly ridiculous. M.*.
Cooke counselled tho voters present to
cast their ballots for Grant aud the reg
ular Republican nominees. In speaking
of bis connection with the Court as S-?
licitor he paid an eloqueut and deserved
tribute io Judge Graham, and defended
hi in agaiust the charges made sometime
ago by Mr Seabrook. The speaker
alluded to his candidacy for the Soliei
torship of this Circuit iu brief and ap
propriate terms. The audience received
this announcement with cheers. Mr
Cooke spoke for sometime, and main
taiued throughout his remarks. co.usi.lv
ruble interest.
Mr. V\ D. Bowman s.po.ke next. His
speech was earnest and effective, ni.d
was well received by the crowd.
The Hon. Bcnj. Byas followed. His
speech consisted chiefly id* a revio.v of
his official career iu the Legislature.
Ho announced himself for tho Senate,
and pledged himself beforehand to the
task of doing his whole duty if he
should be chosen. Mr. Byas' speech was
earnest aud impressive iu its delivery.
The next speaker on the programme
?was tho Hon. Jas. L. Jamison. Upon
his taking th.; stand the crowd gavo
three cheers. Mr. Jamison is also a
oandidato for the Senate from this
County, and like Mr. B. reviewed bis
recoyd iu the Legislature, and showed to
the satisfaction of his-constituents that
he bad done his duty faithfully. Said
that he was boru and raised iu South
Carolina, and-that all bis sympathies
were with thos? of her soil. That if he
was elected to the Senate, und iu conse
(jucuce of his neglect of duty, a bid law
was made, his interests and his family's
intorcsts would suffer with those of alloth
(rs. "Being then a true son of this Stabe,
and devoted to tho advancement rf her
welfare, it is wrong to ox poet of me any
thing bss thau a faithful performance of
my whole duty. It has beeu said that
there are others moro fit than myself to
occupy the high position of Senator. 1
graut it. Never*" mv life luv T' "**fi!lr"

Let us lijre liko frieuds, let us ho happy.
If these Ucntimeuts he honorable and
meet an \pcho in tho hearts of my friends

Mr Ji unison's time beiug out he was
in formed} by tho Chair to take his seat.
His spd^h was remarkable for its
n igiualit V- We arc only able to furu
sh a fcf ' sentiments us above. From
he appeJ'nmces it seems that Jim is
thi ad torjthe Seuutc just now.
J. Fehjh'r Meyers, Esq., took the stand
ifier MiJ- Jamison. His speech was
tuinentlC local. Ho thought it most
ippropriapc to speak of the County as
n&nni tV4nnjUng Man in ?w
line of argument he spoke for twenty- J
five or thirty minutes in favor of (lii>sc
whom hz deemed the moat worthy of the
Republican vote. Fiist and foremost he
advocated the election of F I. Cain to
the office of Sheriff. His reasons for
doing this were so strong an?vl jmugtot
that three-fourths of the meeting gave
burst to round after round of applause.
Mr. Ceo. lioliver was the next one ad
vocated by him. He showed to the
satisfaction of the crowd that Mr. Boli
ver had been the most faithful and
efficient Clerk that this County over had
and that the Republican party could not
do better than to re-elect him. For the
last four yeurs he hud done hU duty
faithfully, aud eucomiumus had been
pronounced upon him even by those who
wore opposed to him personally and po
litically epo& hU induction- into office.
Mr. Meyers' argument in favor of Mr.
Bui iver enlisted the sympathy of the
audience in hid bchaLf, and his uamc alto
was cheered*
lion. J. jL Jamison was the \nnb one
of the many candidates of whom the
speaker made mention. He drew a
comparison between Messrs Jemison
and Uyas, and showed clearly that tho
former was entitled to the voty of the
people in preference to Mr. Byas. He
??..^vl If ah.' thn !.:-'
and cmiueutly responsible position of
Suite Senate to litre in the County.
D-idu't approve of the idea uf the way
a great many had uf acting. As soon
?s some men are elected, they skidaddlo
back to their homes, aud, ouly come
duwn here once or twice a year. Said
that he had no doubt that if Mr. Jami
son's upponent was elected his consti
tuents v.ouldgctbut four glimpses of him
iu four 3ears, aud that would be because
his iittondauoe upon tho Semite would
he necessary.
Mx. Meyers' speech was clear aud
impressive, and no- one doubts that it
bail a marked effect. Upoa> his
dcoendiug from the stand, ovec one
huulnd persons ran to him and congra
tulated him upon the effect ofhis speech
He takes his text to day at the Club
House iu St. Muttbewa, from an article
.from the Times of:* r.'ecut date.
The Rev. Sam'l Mays followed iu a
r. .,ljt] .. m tmjttj speech.
Tho address of Mr. Frank McKiulay
was a mittraillieuie for his party. Ho
rather wont for somebody in closing np,
in a stylo which elicited several rounds
of cheers.
Other speeches vvero made by Mr. W.
N. Mount und Wm. R. Myers and oth
ers. Mr. Mount's rcuiurks smacked,
strongly of itivectWos ngaitist tho sup -
porters of Mr. Cain, and in praise of
Hurpin Riggs, Esq.
This about ondod tho speaking at
Howe's Bridge, und barbecued beef and
mutton was then partsken of, am] those
who did not depart for home, repaired
to the Pump, whither an enthusiastic
and lively meetiug was he'd that night.
Addresses woro than made by Messrs.
Bolivcr, M. I. Browning, II. P Cooke,
Christian Caldwell, Jaiuos Jamison and
others.
I Mr. Bolivcr Bbnwed up his record in a
clear aud honest manner. Said that so
far as Republicanism is concerned he
claimed to be ub faithful and sincere in
his devotion t> its principles as any man
?Ho had fought in the Go nieder tie army,
aud there it was said of him that he was
a good soldier. It could not bo said of
him that he bad not made just as good
a soldier in t lie He publican ranks
[Cries?oh, you're nil right ] "I know
I am, my friends, hut I have an oppon
ent and I want to show yon (hat be ain't
all right." This brought down the
crowd, and the speaker was urged to go
on, which he did in :i clear and succinct
style, ami it was manifest that by the
time ha got through that the sympathies
of the people bad been won.
Here tne following preamble and rcso
I lutions were offered nud unanimously
1 adopted:
