A SPEECH FROM THE HUSTINGS.
The following is a correct report of a speech made by one of the candidates
at a recent election in the north of England.
THOMAS SMITH, Esq., then presented himself, and said--" * * *
* * * * * crisis * * * *
* * * * * * * * * important
dreadful * * * * * industry * * *
* * * enemies * * slaves * *
independence * * * * * * freedom
* * * * * firmly * * * *
gloriously * * * * contested * * *
* * * support * * * * victory,
Hurrah!----"
Mr. Smith then sat down; but we regret that the uproar which prevailed,
prevents us giving a fuller report of his very eloquent and impressive
speech.
