Following ihes wagons was a compa
ny ol abnui 200 mounted Tanners, and
then came the wagons, carnages, etc ,
until one would suppose there was no
end to the procession. The Weeping
Water and Eight Mile Grove Mar-a
Bands accompanied their respective del
eeations. and their soul-stirring notes
made one think they were again living
in '61 and G2. The procession was a
a I
full hour in nassinf? and thoe wno
counted fay there was over ISO wan
ons. and that there were at least '2 000
people in the proces.-ion. Of one thing
we are certain, it was .he largest pro
cession and the largest gathering of
people ever witnessed in this part ot
ihe country, and not a copperhead wa
to hrt seen in it. Had it n.-t been foi
the unfavorable appearance of th
weather there would have been at leas
one half more people in attendance.
After the rear of the procession had
passed the corner of Fourth and Main
Streets, where a large crowd was gath
ertd, we heard a deafening s-houi go
up, and upon hurrying up to ascertain
ihe cause, our eyes were greeted by
one of the most ludicrous, and at th
same time r.ppropnaie spectacles we
have ever witnessed. About a hundred
yards in lhe rear of the processiou came
a sisjht which should be seen to be ap
preciated. It consisted of an old pile
of bones called a horse, r gged up with
traps of leather and pieces of coid for
a harness, attached to an old rickeiv
wagon, upon which was loaded an Ai
barrel labeled whisky, on the top of
which barrel was seated a coal black

was quite chilly, but the crowd assem
bled was so great that no ball in ihe
city would hold more than one-fourth
of them, and the only alternative was
to hold an cut door meeting. Gov
Butler was the first speaker. He de
voted a short time to a personal matter

friends within hearing we rather think
they wished Morton haa not commenc

Mfcj. Lyman, of Council Bluffs, wl o
was present instead of Hon. J. W
Chapman, who wna one of the adver
tised speaker. The Major has fooghi
rebels on the tented field, and yives
them but little quarter now. The hour
wa getting late, and the Major's voice
was nearly used up by constant speak
ing for 'hree weeks previous, hence he
did not attempt a thorough eet speech
but touched upon most of 'he leading
political topics, illustrating them in a
manner which wa probably as effect
ive as any speech of ihe occasion.
Major Lyman fully understands ihe is
sues of the day. and has the ability to
present them to an audierce with a force
of reasoning which is ;rresitable. We
hope to hear him aciin before the cam
