Pursuant to a call which has been adver
tised for some days past, the Democrat of
Travis county assembled Thursday, Jthe
twenty-seventh iost., at the barbecue
gioundi, near this city, for the purpose of
ratifying the action of the National Democ
racy at St. Lot. is. Mo., in nominating ti e
Hon. Bamael J. Tilden, of New York, for
President, and the Hon. Tbomai A. Ileud
ni k, of Indians, for Vice President, of
the United State. Prompt'. at 12 o'clock
Major Wm. M. Walton, in behalf of the
committee of arrangements, called the
meeting to order, and on his motion Col.
R. II. Hutherford wos called to preside,
nd on motion of the lion. A. J. Peeler,
H. L. B-ntIey, E., wis selected as secre-1
tary of the meeting.
- After a few explanatory rcmaikson the
part of the chairman, Major Walton intro
duced the Hon. Richard V. Cook, of Colo
rado county, elector on the Tilden and
Hendricks ticket in and for this the Fifth
congressional district of Texas. Col. .Cook,
ill a speech of two hours length, reviewed
the history of the Democratic ami
Republican piotics rettpectively, and
demonstrated to the entire sittis
f notion of the large and intelligent an
il ience present, the eminent fitness of the
election of the great reformer of New York
as the standard-bearer of the Democratic
party in 'the presidential content of 1876.
He also siMikc in uiuet fitting and eulogistic
term of the party candidate for Vice Pres
ident, and tnc ticarty applause with which
bis remarks were greeted (showed how'
high is. the appreciation of the Travis
county Dmnocriicy for the dixtinguiMlicd Iu
diana slutesuun.
At the condition of C'.d. Ciok's re
mit ks, Gov. Richard Coke was pruiicnted
to the meeting, and, in his forcible and pe
culiar style, dealt ninny sledge-hammer
licks to the Republican party, nud expressed
bis unqualified endorsement of the action
of the 8t. Louis convention.
Lieutenant Governor Richard Hubbnrd
was next presented to the meeting, aud
in a logical and at the same time liu
inoroui speech, proceeded to discuss
the great issue before the coun
try. His remarks were greeted warmly,
and hi eulogy of Tilden and Hendricks
uirt with a full and hearty response from
those prwent.
At the couc!uiou of O iveruor Hubbard'
rrmniks, dinner w.i-t announced, and the
crowd promptly repaired to the table, and
did ample justice to the excellent refresh
ments which had been prepared.
Immediately alter dinuer the meeting wis
again called to order to consider the report
of the committee on resolutions which was
appointed in the forenoon, which consisted
of the following gentlemen, to-wit: Col.
J. W. Robertson, Giles II. Uurdett, E-q ,
M. C. Nockols, aS'tj., J .tines D. Doxey,
K q., and Hon. A. J. Peeler.
Col. R ibcrtsou, as ctiuirttun of this com
mittee, submitted the following, which
were enthusiastically adopted by the meet
ing, to-wit :
Ittntrtd, That the real question to be
settled at the poll, in November nc.it, is
whether we are longer to tubmtt to the su
premacy of a party which has deliberately
trampled under font every principle that
ought to be dear to the heuri of American
freemen; a party which hai, with set pur
pose, overt brow u the burners raided by our
lathers to resist the encroachments of tyr
any; a 'party which has never hesitated,
when necessary to the accomplishment of
its selfish ends, to brush away, as mere
cobwebs, the most revered safeguards of
the rights aud privileges of the people; a
party which, lUsteutl of securing equal
rights aud privileges, and laboring to pro
mote the interests of all, has created and
nourished a moneyed aristocracy; a party
which has directed its chief legislation to
favoring, at the expense of the hard-work
ing masM'S, the wealthy few in one section,
aud in oppressing and bvgganng the people
of another section; a party which, in the
language of our platform, has not only in-
nxted upon ten btates the ranacitv of car
pet-bag tyranny, but " has honey combed
the olllcesof the Federal government itself
with incapacity, waste and fraud, inflicted
Mates and municipalities with the conta
gion of m in rule, and locked fast the pros
perity ot an industrious people in the par
alysi of hard times;" a party which, by
its useless and profligate expenditures and
corrupt use of the public money, has
robbed the overburdened taxpayers of uu
told millions.
lirwlcitl-. That against this party and for
" our noble standard-bearer, batuuel J. Til
den and Thomas A. Hendricks, Texas
pledge a majority of one hundred thou
sand, and that iu this contest for principle.
every Democrat will go to the polls to vote
lor these pure ana distinguished statesmen,
upon whom the duty will soon devolve of
rescuing our government from corruption
and misrule, nd restoring it to honest
lianda, J. W. Kohkktson, Chnir'u.
G. II. RlltlHTT, M. C Nlt'KOI.S,
J. I). IX.KV, A. J. Pkki.kk.
Mr. Wooten was ucxt introduced, and, in
a manner most creditable to one so young,
entertained the meeting. His speech, which
would have n fleeted much honor on older
speaker, waa logical in its conception,
chaste in its language, and was well deliv
ered.
Norman U. Kittrell, K-q., of Galveston,
was next loudly called for, and responded
in an. eloquent speech, pregnant with
thought and fire. His manner was very
earnest, and his langnsge sometimes se
vere, but the reception with which his re
marks were greeted evidenced the fact that
the Democrat of TraTw county are thor
ought id earnest, and are diposed to deal
with the tnoinctilou questions now at issue
with ungloved hands.
Senator McCutlouch, having Ixea called
for, made hit appesranee on the speaker's
- wsrd, and, in his u-uaIIt felicitous style.
entertained,' for a short timo, hi delighted
audience.
At this pmnt in the proceedings Mnjr
Walton announced tint the rtyxW pro-
. gramme of the meeting was exhausted
Not contented however, with the " feast of
reason and flow of sow!," up to that time
enjoyed by them, the people hungered for
N afcU more Democratic nourishment, and
laslily called for a number of gentlemen to
addrea them. In reopoase to call made
for him, Robt. II. Ward, E-q , took the
land, and in a sprightly aud well delivered
effort of about fifteen minutes' duration,
contributed much to the pleasure of the rx
caaion. At the conclusion of his remarks
Senator Crain waa called for and waa as
- cendiog the speaker stand a we reluc
tantly left the barbecue grounds. We are
aot able to aprak advielly of his remarks.
but judgiug from what we know of the
Senator' ability as a sjx-aker, we are satis
fied he did full justice t. the occasion, and
added to his already well earned reputation.
