. KENDALLVILLE, Aveust 5, . ‘M=R. EpiTor:—The meeting held here ‘on the 31st ult.,, was attended by at least 2,000 people. Mr. Hendricks arrived on the 11:21 train the night previous and ~was met at the depot by the committee of reception, who escorted him to his stopping place. During the forenoon s large number of ‘persons called upon him and found him a very sociable gentleman. The town was decorated with flags, several being stretched across Main street, and quite a number were brought in from the country. A large banner on which were ,the names of Greeley and Brown and, also, in large letters, “Thomas A. Hendricks for Governor,” attracted much attention. Long before 2 o'clock the people commenced gathering at the grove and precisely at 2 Mr. Hendricks appeared on ‘the ground. A shower of rain coming up -just at this time, speaking was not com‘menced until half an hourlater, when Mr. Hendricks delivered one of the ablest speeches that it has ever been my pleasure to hear. For over an hour and a half he held the massive audience as it were spellbound, and charmed them with his eloquence. For want of space I shall not be able to give much of his speech, but i will only mention one or two propositions made by the speaker: He requested his Grant republican triends, before depositing their ballots, to write upon the back of each one that they-are in favor of the man who has taken presents and appoiat--ed the givers to. high positions in the government ; that they are in favor of the nepotism of the President; that they en dorse the act of sending Babcock with an armed vessel to San Domingo, and other unrighteous plans for the possession of that island contrary to law, and let those ballots be presetved that their children may see their endorsements and condemn them as they sureley will. Also, tbat if there are any Democrats who refuse to enter this great reform movement,let them write upon their ballots, or on paper and file it away, that they did not vote ageinst the man who is guilty of these things, and when their children come to read it they will, also, condemn them. Miss Ringle and a friend presented Mr. Hendricks with two very handsome bouquets, which ornamented the stand during thie meeting and for which he expressed his kindest regards. : I noticed in the audience many old men from a distance, who bad met Hendricks years ago, and all expressed themselves delighted to hear him agsin. According to previous announcement Mr. Hendricks addressed the Greeley and Brown club in the evening, where he was received with great applaise, The day will long be remembered as one of political importance in Kendallville, and will be productive of good results at the coming elections. Now,; I must speak of a matter which had better not occurred. That wus bringing Senator Murton here to speak on that avening.: He apparently felt chagrined’ at his situation, and apologized for his appearance. Whether or not he knew that Hendricks would speak in the evening, those who brought him here knew it. They knew very well that our club at its last meeting adjourned to meet. on that (Wednesday) cvening, instead of on Friday, the regular meeting night. Now, there is a.certain amount of decent respect due to men of all parties, but lam compelled to say, the men who are running the Grant interests in this town are nearly devoid of that respect. _ 8. E. Alvord, of Albion, addressed our club on Wednesday evening, prior to the appearance of Mr. Hendricks. His remarks were timely and to the point, One of the lowest political harrangues that I have ever heard was gotten off on last Saturday night, at Mitchell’s hall, by a Mr. Robertson, of Fort Wayne. It-ap-pears that the Grant office holders- were not satisfied with Morton’s explanation of Mr. Hendricks’ speech, but advertised that this man would show up the matter in its proper light. Some two hundred people assembled and, after a song, this man commenced his speech, which for audacity and low slang I have never heard excelled. I shall only notice two or three points in his remarks., First, in regard to Grant siguingghe,railmsd bill: He said that Hendricks lied ; that Grantdid not sign the bill; that he (Grant) only signed a resolution (which, by the way, he failed to read.) By Grant’s signature to this bill the railroad company became possessed of a title enabling them to sell and mortgage the lands, which title they did not previously have, as all who will read the bill signed by Grant must readily admit. - Mr. Hendricks had alluded to a bill to give soldiers $2OO for a horso furnished to the government, and which bill Grant vetoed. Mr. Hendricks wished to show by reference to this ect, how ready Grant had ever been to sign bills favoring the rich, but that he had been slow to sign bills giving to the poor; being very care tul to examine into the advantage of the one, but failing' to see the justice of the other. In regard to the $105,000, he said Hendricks had lied about that as to the time, but not as to the facts that Grant had received.that amount, and of his appointing Gen. Butterfield—the man who bad solicited these bonds for Grant—to a high and lucrative office in the goyern ment. Now I doubt whether Mr. Hendricks said that Grant received this mon. ey after he became President, but he did say that he thought it had mueh-to do in influencing the appointment of Butterfield and others to high positions in the government, Now, with all this great amount.of blowing on the part of Grant’s friends, they do not deny that the railroad company got the lands; that Grant did veto the soldier’s bill ; that Grant did get. $105,000 as a present, and that be did appoint Bntt‘er&ld and others who gave him this present, to high places in the government. - ¢ g D

One day last week a young man by the name of Hull got his foot and leg 5o badly crushed in the power of a threshing machine as to necessitate amputation just below the knee. 1t is proposed to have our Greeley and Brown club meet next Saturday evening, July 10,—the day that Mr. Conner, ofTexas, is to speak at this place. Lét all turn-out to hear this man. He will be able to tell us a good deal about the condition of the South. Robertson, who spoke at Mitchell’s hall last Saturday night, should be excused for his severity on Greeley, and all who ;support. him,. as I. suppose that he anduther Grant men were laboring under the severs blow they received in Norsh Carolius, last Tuesday. . . . . : | The Rev. Mr. Harrison, a former citizen of this place, visited our town and preach.‘ed in the Good Templar hall, last &nduy.

We are indebted to our old friend, J. 8. Lockhart, for the following item of interest : : i 2 Eas ‘ _ “There has been congjderable talk among someé of our farmers concerning the failure of crops this season. Judge Harrison Wood has threshed a portion of his ‘ wheat crop, which yielded twenty bushels and a half to the acre, machine measure. William Blue has threshed his crop and. it averaged thirty-two bushels to the acre. Jacob Hire-threshed 70 dozen less than two acres and the yield was fifty-seven bushels. Wm. Sleighbaugh threshed 20 acres and it overrun twenty-one bushels to the acre. This doés not look much like a' failure in the wheat crop. The present prospect of the céra crop ie most excel lent, as is that tor potatoes. Oats will be about a balf crop. Peaches and apples will not be very plenty.” - ; o
