Breck inridge today delivered one 0f die most remarkable addresses of Ills career. The occasion was unique. In that the defeated candidate had been Invited to present on behalf of a Breckinridge organization a banner to the'precinct wh.ch gave him the largest proportion ate vote of any other in die district. This precinct was Harper’s Ferry, in Henry county. Of tho 170 cotes cast Breckluridge got 139 of them, in pre senting tho banner tho colonel took oc casion to drag open in his skillful man ner all the old wounds of the campaign and to refer to nearly everything that was done against his candidacy. From ft literary standpoint it is one of tho most perfect speeches he ever made. Already thousands of Breckinridge’s supporters have signided their intention tlou of voting for Judge George Denny, tho Republican nominee, and today’s speech will have 1 tendency ,0 drive many strong Breckinridge men to Denny’s support The closing sen tences of ids speech breathe the spirit of die man as well ns Ids supporters. They are ns follows: “I know not what the .future has in store for 1110 nor am I disquieted thereby - .
