THE COUNTY MEETING.
FULL PROCEEDINGS.
SENATOR BAYARD'S 8PEECH.
Démocratie County Meeting.
LARGE ATTENDANCE AND FINE
SPEECHES.
Addresses by Cor.. Wm. G. Whiteley,
J. C. Grubb, Esq., and
Nenatob Bayard.
The Democratic County Meeting at
New Castle, on Saturday afternoon, was
both lurge and respectable, only the nar
row limits of the old Court II<
vented the attendance from being larger
than it was.
The meeting was called to order by
Joseph Roberts, Esq., of Appobuinimink
first Vice President of the
ouse pre
hundred, the
last County meeting.
Messrs. Edward Reynolds and H. B,
Meint ire, permanent Secrateries, being
absent, on motion of Mr. Nathaniel
Williams, Albert II. Silver, Esq., was
made Secretary.
On motion of Mr. Charles Beasten, tho
Delegates to the County Convention
wero roquested to fill all vacancies in
their ^respective delegations, ami re
tire to make tho county ticket .
The roll of delegates was then called,
and all present answered to their names.
Having published an entire list of the
delegates on Friday last, we deem it un
necessary to repeat it here.
The delegates
Grand Jury room to make nominations.
The result of their deliberations will be
found elsewhere.
John P. Cochran, Esq., candidate for
Governor and James M. Williams, Esq.,
candidate for Congress being presented
they were invited to tako neats by the
chair.
Mr. Cochran being called upon umde
the following remarks:
Gentlemen:—On a former occasion I
was elected Chairman of your County
Meeting, since then I have received high
er honors and now decline and Mr. Rob
erts will act in my place.
Col. Wm. G. Whiteley of this city, be
ing loudly callod for responded in a brief
but effective speech, in which he review
ed tho conduct, course and composition
of the Republican party. *
This party, said the Colonel is compos
ed of a set of office holders, whose chief
and only dosire is to koep in office and
the honest tax-pavers of t ho country.
Tho President, Gen. Grant, is the chief
of these office-holders, and is a candidate
for a third term, but he thinks more of
junketting around tho country, and opon
mg a hotel at Capo May or Atlantic city
than he does of attending to his duties.
For God's sake don't let us have another
president who goes uround opening tav
erns. Lot t he office-holders nominatohim,
we'll lay him out. But this party of of
fice-holders desire to keep themselves in
power, and are therefore for Grant.
Col. Whitely then referred to the ini
quitous Education Bill passed by tho
last Congress, by which Commissioners
of Education are appointed to go around,
and see how school children aro being
educated—thus increasing this vast
army of office-holdors. Next year, anoth
or bill will probably be passed appoint
ing school teachers—still increasing tho
great army and taking from the people
of the States affairs which should be reg
ulated by themselves.
Why should Congress do these things
instead of letting us do it, us
to, in our own State? So let us send a
man to Congress who will vote against
such iniquitous measures, [Applause.]
When the Civil Rights bill passed the
United State Senate I knew that Dela
ware would at once array herself against
it. The bill has not yet passed the Low
er House, and is not yet u law. But they
must pass it. They are "between the
Devil and tho Deep Sea.** If they pass
tho bill they lose the white vote, and if
they fail to pass it the black vote will bo
lost. They will get out of their dilemma
best they can, pass the bill by next
January, and then the junketing tavern
ox^ener will sign it.
If a poor white man then goes to the
Clayton House, ho can bo refused accom
modations, but if tho diTtiest negro is re
fused a room, the proprietor can be fined
$250. If you fail to obey this bill you
will bo placed under the tender mercies
of the men at Sixth and King streets,
who will carry out its infamous provis
ions.
What then will become of your schools
in Delaware?
Tho workings of this bill will eurely
produce a war of races, und then we, the
true friends of tho negro will see them
slaughtered ull over the country. No
people iu the world would stand such u
bill.
The speaker then proceeded to favor
more amendments to the Constitu -
then retired to tho
rob
ought
as
ono or
tion of tlie United States, which should
be the insertion of the word "white" in
the opening words of that instrument,
follows: "We, the [white] people of
the United States, ordain," Ac. He
wanted white people to govern a white
man's country.
lie closed by referring briefly to State
affairs, and urged the election of Coch
Williams and our whole ticket, by
ran,
overwhelming majorities.
John O'Byrne, Esq., was then request
ed to speak, but being otherwise engaged,
declined.
Ignatius O. Grubb, Esq., was tho next
speaker. He referred to the recent Dem
ocratic victory and the gratifying effect
it had on the State campaign, assuring
the election of our State ticket by a good
majority. Mr. Grubb then referred
the issues of tho campaign, and discuss
ed them briefly, but in an effective man
to
lie closed by urging a united effort, and
a satisfactory settlement of all pending
political questions in our State, bv the
triumphant election of Cochran and Wil
frequently applauded.
Meanwhile a committee had been ap
pointed to wait on tho Hon. Tlios. F.
Bayard, and request him to address the
meeting. The Honorable gentleman con
sented to do so, and entered the room at
the conclusian of Mr. Grubb's remarks,
amid great applause,after being present
ed by the chairman, he spoke substanti
ally, os follows :
Fellow Citizen« of New Castle
County:—I am much obliged to tlie
President for tho introduction but I
think you will ugreo with me when I
say I hardly need it. Here 1 feel at
homo and often since I have been away
from you sitting as a Representative in
a weak minority, in the face of an in
Bolent majority, when all I had hoped
for my country and people seemed hope
less there came thoughts which led tue
Hams. Ho
back to ihia State and County. And
when I thought of the long history of
the State I was sure that whether the
principles for which X contended wero
guinea or not I was sure of the respect
of the honest men I represented. And
Inever looked back but I thought when
excitement has gone and truth is re
ceived temperately, how will my votes
and speeches be felt by the
Delaware. If they have struck, a chord
in your hearts and you thought you
were represented by an honest man you
caught exactly the echo I intended.—
There has been something observable
in the faces of the people of this com
munity for months, more so for weeks
and still more so for days past. Expres
sions of satisfaction and hopcfulincss
coutinue on the facesof ltepublicnnsas
well as Democrats. A liberal interpre
tation of what was meant was announ
a few days ago.
Î government was hoped for and a large,
ong and complete step in that direc
tion was tnkenon Tuesday last and this
step will hold for some time. The com
ing glow of Democratic triumph shines
on the faces of the men of this State.—
The Republicans feel it, the Democrats
feel it and the most honest member of
the Republican party will hail it with
satisfaction. They have seen the foul
mistake of negro suffrage. The men
whom you and I respect; what is their
voice and influence in the Republican
party ? Nothing. Like tiio hero of the
Arabian fairy tale they wero the slaves
of tlie Ring. What is the power in the
Republican party to-day ? The blind,
corrupt votes of men never fit to exer
cise this power in any political
nity. They arc not the men <
lcet, they are not the men of honor who
rule the Republican party to-day,but
the lowest cluss of professional politi
cians who follow tlie ship of State as
the shark follows vessels to catch the
plunder. These are the men who go
into tlie negro school houses and into
their homes and stuff the cars of these
deluded people and who gain their votes
Intelligence lias no chance to act. Tlie
most respectable Republicans of Wil
mington can gain no opportunity.
Tlie corrupt clement sends nomina
tionswereit pleased. They ure help
less. The fate of tlieSoulhcrn States is
before their eves. To-day wo stand
upon tlie eve of au important canvass.
No where in this Union can there be
found a Stato more untarnished in ils
reputation than Delaware. What lias
kept it so 1 It is not a rich State, it lias
no mineral nor ore nor gold nor ought
of any value. Rut a few acres. It has
a fuir soil and a good climate; a good
bay and good estuaries. A good cli
mate nml a good stock, not mingled
Willi inferior races. A people living
under the (,'ouslitutlon and laws the
value of which their ancestors knew.
A people whoso government lias always
been administered frugally,
administration as holds Philadelphia,
Mouth Carolina ami Louisiana by the
throat and what would become of our
beust 1 I beg you to consider that it is
only by tlie economy of our forfatlicrs
and absence of cor
escendurts that our

An era of honest

of intel
One such
und by tliut probity
ruption in their d<
Btate administration has been so hon
orable. And 1 defy any ono to point
out a single case whereby tho default
of any Democratic official a loss of the
public money has been caused. Our
State government has been frugal and
economical. Our Htate bonds though
paying but (> per ct. iu paper and sub
jected to their share of taxation are
easily sold. Wlie.o else in this coun
try can you point to a similar fact. The
honest Republicans who look at tho
Radical corruption in other States hail
tho prospects of a Democratic victory
here with satisfaction.
The man who reads success by mere
party lights knows nothing of it. It is
not for the men who are to be nomina
ted here to-day, but because they
are to be trusted to continue the hon
est government which this Btate has
heretofore enjoyed. These are sober
topics uud 1 do not feel the exultation
of a partizan, but l thank God that
when Democracy triumphs, old and
young, rich nnd poor, white and black,
will be bcnelittcd. Good government
is not confined to oue class of men nor
evil to unothcr. Let our party aims
be high and let us advocate no measure
that will not command an honest man's
respect und demand nil honest man's
scrutiny. This is what'makes Demon
Gibraltar to those who flee from
racy a
tlie corrupt Republican party. I beg
you do uot disappoint them. Wc ask
our opponents not to vote for tlie
men as mere party men but in tbe
name of good government to assist us
to keep this State in honest Imnds.
There lias been bitter times in the past
but now the war is over or should be.
I pray Gpd that it is, but I know that
there 1s a party that will never let tlie
bitter feelings die out so long as they
may serve for party purposes. A man
witli this spirit must appeitr to a béné
ficient Creator as a bad man. Subtract
tlie men of fiery passions eager for po
litical advancement alone from tho
Republican party and how much party
strength will remain. What Fisher
Ames termed "the sober second
thought" has readied tlie people. In
this canvass not only have you State
matters to deal with, not only have
you to select proper castodians of your
taxing power, not only a Governor,
but a Representative in Congress is to
bo chosen, tlie ono man to sit with
300 others to whom is confided tlie rep
utation of your State. And, although
I am not given to extravagant lan
guage, yet I cannot forbear saying
after years of intimate acquaintance
political and private, wc arc happy to
have a candidate of such quiet, steady,
solid character as tho present Demo
cratic nominee. I shall
him tlie possession of high ppwer, hut
of those qualities which command the
confidence of every voter at the next
election. In my experience of his
years I will say that after his modesty
permits his abiijties to becomo known
lie will bo found as valuable a Repre
sentative as the State has had there in
my life time. I did not mention your
candidate for Governor. lie was [it
man performing his duties as a citizen
before 1 reached mauhood. It is but
true to say flint tlie office has sought
him and he not it. It lias come to him
us office should come. I think I say
what 1 know when 1 suy that a norni
naion for Governor never was received
witli more
came to Mr. John P. Cochran ten days
ago. If tho results of our labors have
been satisfactory ho sure that under
him they will lie continued. Tlie
same feeling which induces us io trust
not claim for
than that which
him in private life Induces us to trust
him In public station. My remarks
bave been very unpremeditated iu ad
dressing you this afternoon but I have
endeavored to speak fully to you of
your duty to select good men for your
State Government. Your Legislature
next fall will select some one to follow
me as the Representative of this State.
All the things of which I have spoken
call our attention to our national af
fairs. When you consider the condi
tion to which recollection has brought
us, how the Federal has subverted the
State Jurisdictions and destroyed their
independent action and imperelled
their preservation you will see how
National politics affect our State.
Laws on the U. 8. Statute hook to-day
jeopardize our State's existence; such
are the election laws. Don't let any
man suppose he can sanction a wron
principle without it returning hac
upoh him In the end. I have often
felt amazed that the citizens of the U.
8. could tolerate the Federal action in
the Southern Statea without raising
their voices in indignât remonstrance
against these acts. Lincoln sahl
a house divided against Itself could
not stand—that where one State had a
labor which others hnd found unprofit
able such a union must break. Revo
lution came and slavery was blotted
Now, If on this subject they
could not stand how can a Union of
States continue with one portion op
E ressed by the other, nnd such things
appen ns we have seen for eight yours.
I never saw the day when the Democ
racy wished for a disunion of the
States. We longed for a brotherhood
of Union. I long for it to-day, nnd
word or action of mine In any degree
shall serve to make onc-pnrt of this
country hate the other. Tills Union
must be founded in justico between
the Stutcs. Tlie present in justice and
oppression cannot exist. If tlie course
of tlie Republican party shall continue
tlie hope Union will nt present become
realized.
I do not think the North hutc the South

Slate can be safe from it, If not from a
•cnee oi Justice, then from a sense of self

these acts. 1 do not propose to catalogue
the wrongs of the Southern States.
The attempt Is uow being made to coin
false stories of wrougs aguinet the negroes,
to rerve as a pretext for further oppressions.
The groat daugor is that these political
adventurers control the purse and the sword
