C.iry was dlsturbed In liis speech Friday evenlng last by sotne yoiing men who onght to liave had more respect for the gray hairs of the speaker, if they tlid not have for tliems lves. To disturb anybody who is speaking in public, no matter what his tlieme, is contemptible, and deserves the severest coiideinnalion. No gentleman wlll ;o to a meeting to disturb others. Tliose who attend speeches to liear should not be disturbed, those who do not care to listen should stay away. It Is as dishonorable to disturb a political ns a religious meeting.
