.-reception in the J. & Holland 2 — e THE CHICAGO DAILY TRIBUNE: FUESDAY, OCTOBER %9 ) 1872., NEW YORK. Our English Guésts---The Severe Courtesies With Which We Favor Them. The National Notion of Cheer- ful Entertainment. Dr. Hollznd’s Reception to Georze MacDon- ald-The Literary Guild in Social Convention. The Demons of Inkin Full Trains and Swallow=Tails. From Our OQun Corrcspondent. New YoRg, Oct. 24, 1872, Our English visitors—James Anthony Froude, George MacDonald, Edmund Yates, Professor Tyndell, and Emily Faithfull—are in imminent danger of being killed with kindness by their American admirers. The Professor has, thus far, been at the breakfast-table in Boston, and New Yorkers have not had an opportunity, therefore, to favor him with their profuse hospi- telities. But the other Britons have been un- dergoing such a rigorous round of formal cour- tesies that they are well-nigh exhausted. OVERDOING COUBTESY. As an instance, Messicars Froude and Mac- Donzld and Miss Faithfull sccepted an invita- tion, last Tuesdsy, to visit the various pensl and charitable institutions on Black- well's and other islands in the [East River. They went, and so rapidly and thoroughly were they shown around that they exhausted their strength before they had ‘half-finished their investigations. They were not permitted to return until nearly derk, and then they were completely tired out. ‘We certainly have an odd idea in this country of 'WEAT CONSTITUTES ENTERTAINMENT. We are constantly taking those we wish fo ‘honor to prisons, to jails, to houses of coirec- tion, to insane asylums, to hospitals, to all man- ‘ner of places thatare painful to see and disa~ greeahls to think of. When.a stranger withes tobe conducted to one of our pleasantest and cheerfulest resorts, we immediately es- cort him to Greenwood =and Woodlawn; 2nd, if he be of & rather gloomy disposition nat- urally, with & epecial fondness-for viewing the Tright side of things, Wwe carry him off to the forgue, and delight him with 2 narrative con- cerning mysterions murders and desperate sui- cides, intermingled with copious annotations and references to the bodies exposed on the marble elabs. This proclivity of ours to what is horzr’ble and ghastly isinexplicable to Europeans, especially 10 Latin pations, who often suppoeeitto be a -peculiar quality of the very peculiar American humor, of which they have heard so0 mnch and comprehend o little. The truth is, that, as a raoce, We_ are among the poorest of entertainers. We &re in no sense mercurial, sanguine, jocund, or sprightly. We are cynically merry, recklessly gsy, desper- ately droll at times, thongh the genuine element of cheerfulness or buoyancy is lacking in us almost altogether. We quite ontdo even the English in -moodiness snd_taciturnity when in company, where we are less agreeable than under any other circumstances. Shall we ever Jearn to play, I wonder? Shall we ever leamn the art of trifiing gracefully, or of uitering nothings with stiractiveness? Possibly we m8; but the time will be when we -have ceased - to _ think- that we all hzva‘nbfigficns and duties to.perform, and when the development of the lnm{ having left us less excuse for work, shall yield a larger sup- ply of leisnre. “To return to THE ENGLISE TRIO: Two of them found, on getting back to town, that they were not physicaily able to attend the evening, given by Dr. and Mre, to George Donald. _Mr. Fronde declared his mp{ems regret, and Miss Faithful was inexpressibly sorry, at their bat- tered condition; and even Mr. MacDonald was - sofatigued that he was compelled to retire as early a5 11 o'clock. When the mnext reception is tendered him, he will not attempt todo the Fast River Islands on the same day. : DE. HOLLAND'S RECEFTION, given on the second anniversary of the birth of Seribner's Monthly,—of which heis the editor and proprietor,—was very pleasant and inter- esting.

Mr. Harte is an atiractive and . picturesque talker, though not remarkable in sppearance,—his _face bearing mo _evidenco of the inner fire of genius. Much is expected from the play upon which he is re}))onad to be mged, and for which Augustin Daly, of the Avenne Theatre, has contracted. The question with his friends 18, When will the drama be _finished ?— for Mr. Harte, withall his ability and reputation, 38 not fanatical in his 2ttachment to labor. CHABLES DUDLEY WARNER, who, while 2 hard-working editor of the ‘Hart- ford Courant, blossomed into reputation sudden- 3y by thepublication of * My Summer in & Gar~ en,” and whose uniquo essays in Scribner’s are highly praised. Mr. Warner seems extremely gemial, snd & man, withal, who loves the world _and whatever it contains. His hair, thickly strewn with gray, mmkes him seem older than he is; butno one oan talk with him fifteen minutes without seeing how full his heart is of freghness and youth. 2 EDMUND CLABENCE STEADMAN, the stock-broker poet, who won his fir3t fameby <The Dizmond Wedding,” and who, amid eil the excitements of Wall street, cleaves to litera- ture with all the fervor of a true pession. Mr. * Steadman’s countenance suggests Broad street yaore than Parnassus—having & sharp, eager, ferret-like look, as if he were determined to ex- plore the hidden mysteries of the present corner in Pacific Mail. * This is only the outward B ce, however, eince he never thinks of the Stock Exchange in society, and relishesliter~ themes ahove everythingelse. He threatens to devote himself exclusively to his first love, and to let the Bulls and Bears take care of them- selves. ‘Heis an untiring studont, and many a midnight finds him poring over the Greek and Latin classics. : % COLONEL JORN HAY, enerally lmown the author of ‘‘Little Breoches,” and _Jim Bludsos,”—two hits of dialect verse which he threw off merely as bagatelle; while his capital volume of descrip- tive essays, *Castilisn Days” comparatively fow are scqueinted with.

T COoLSTOUN. PENNSYLVANIA. Address of the Liberal Republican State Committee. To the Liberal Republicans of Pennsylvania : Whatever causes have produced the dissstrous fesults of the October election in Pennsylvanis, the Liberal Republicans owe it .to their sincere convictions and to their truly representative and eminent candidates, to give earnest battle for the triumph of bothin the November contest. The men who have braved power and all the ap- pliances of modern politicel vengeance fo re- Btore Republicanism and the nation to self-gov- ernment, to in‘téfiriby in public administration, and to pence, will not falter in the struggle be- cause the exhausting effects of discipline and suthority have achieved a temporary and doubt- fol victory. Whether wholly the result.of fraud or not, the success of October is so stained with debanchery of the ballot_that the peopls are taught in more-unmistakable tones than ever before, the. imperative necessity of & new de- parture in their political policy if they would reserve their frec institntions. With a polluted ballot, and political power enforcing subserv- jency to its will, submission by acitizenis a crime against liberty and law. The Liberal Republican movement wae not & mere_expedient for a national contest. It was called into existence by the encroachments of suthority: upon the dearest prerogatives of the people. When the honest eriticism of smc:ie 2nd eminent Republican statesmen invoked Af- fitness of subordinate officers, or to expose cor- Tuption, and demand ini ty in official trust, ‘made those who fonght the battlesof the people aliens and strangers to Administration favor; when to resist the usurpation of legislative powers by the Executive, was to invite the pro- motion of superserviceable Senators, and the Gegradation of the Sumners and the Frumbulls of the party; and when to declare for free and honest government in the Southern Btates, was to provoke an Administration demand for a new era of seotional hate, many devoted Republicans were compelled to choose between faithless and snbmiesion, or such independent peliti- cal action a8 would warn the country of the dan- gers which threaten it. o A bloody struggle of four years' duration for the ity of the States left us the nsual legacy of protracted war. Theextreme arbitrary power necessary in_ seasons of at public peril not only lingered after the Union had been saved by the heroism of the people, but had steadily maddnew demands upon & reluctant, but too often obedient Congresa. To-day, with peace and civil anthority supreme wherever the citi- zens exercise their just powers without official or military restraint, ours has ceased to be & & Government of the people, by the people, and for the people,” and we must declare that the chief obstacle to successful government and law is the dangerous centralizing tendencies of . the administrative authority. 5 ] Our country would be at variance with all sim- ilar history of other nations, if corruption and its innumerable kindred public wrongs, had not entrenched themselves in power while a patriotic people struggled for the eafety of their govern- ment. It has boldly seized the abgolute control of political organizations in s number of States, and is enabled to meke ambition obedient to its exacting demands. It has also, under color of 1aw, made debanchery and frand a_part ef the regular machinery of elections, by which it inso- lently defies the popular will, and gives open im- munity to organized crime.” 2 In & contest 80 unequal, it is not surprising that here, in Pennsylvania, the ¢hief citadel of perverted authority, we have lost the first battle of this grest conflich, If ithas been won by fraud, or by corruption, or by the assaults of power, or Dy all combined, g8 it undoubtedly bas been, the necessity of the Liberal moyement i8 completely vindicated, and the necessity for its perfected organization and more determined efforts for the fature must challenge the judgmeat of every patrictic citizen. Its mission of national, State, and municipal regeneration is one that no temporary defeat can overthrow, and no combi- nation of_ political enemies can avert its early end decisive trinmph. It is the cause of free Government, the cause of honest administra- tion, the cause of the people, the cause of peace, and to doubt its success would be to doubt the enduring sttributes of freedom. We must batile now, and battle ever for vic- tory, for it is within our reach. If we shall fail to-day, let our ranks be unbroken and strength- ened to-morzow; and as surely as right must tri- umph over wrong, 80 surely we bear our cause fo success. Our platformhas extorted the unqualified approval of ail parties, and our can- didates most fitly represent_the principles so frankly and patriotically declared. Horace Greeley taught the .country the lessons of Cin- cinnati when popular prejudice and sectional passion resisted the peace and union for which we had made countless. sacrifice, and now, whether he or his competitor shall administer the Government, his wise and liberal statesman- ship will be confessed as, the country advances over the hatreds of war to_ Nationel reconcilia- tion. Of his eminent sabilities, his sincere devotion to the whole peopls, his blame- less - int‘a;fi:ty, ;. his honest respect for the pop will, d his antagonism toall nsurpations by Executive authorty, we need not speak. His opinions are unconcealed and known to all, and his patriotism and fidelity need no vindication in any section of the coun- try or of the civilized world. ~With such a man to administer the Government, none but those who fear the crucible of honest authority conld have reason for alarm. Earnestly devoted to ihe interests of industry and and legitimate frade in all their varied channels, and struggling, 25 he ever did and ever will, for_the prosperity and harmony of every section, his election to the Presidency would be the crowning triumph of_peace. g g Liqerals of Pennsylvania! this cause is wor- thy of your noblest efforts. Let our ranks be closed up, and let every Liberal vote be polled in November next. If all who sincerely desire its triumph shall do their duty, s regenerated nation swill be our reward, . By order of the Liberal Republican State Com- mittee. PuiLapenemm, Oct. 22, 1872, —The Titusvilla Press says: “The man who £at up all night, weighing s ton of coal with a air of sicelynrds and by the pailful, to sea that B roccived full weight, thought he was ahead & few peunds until he remembered he had not de- ducted the weight of the pail ‘ministration resentment; when to question the ¢ PERSONAL LIBERTY LEAGUE. Public Meeting of the Liquor Deal- ers Yesterday. They Propose to Support a Ticket of 5 _Their- Own Making. Committees Appointed to Rally .Voters and Distribute Tickets. General Expression of Opinion on the Liguor Laws, The Personal Liberty Leugue met yesterdsy forenoon, in Orpheus Hall, corner of Lake and: Peoria streets. Mr. Michael Keeley called the meeting to order. A discussion arose as to whether reporters should be allowed to remain. They were first excluded, and eventually allowed to return, The Chairman said the League was establish- ed to defeat the machinations of the Temperance people. Action on their ticket should be de- ferred for & week or so. It might be left fo an increased Executive Committeo. COMMITTEE ON RESOLUTIONS. Henry Ackhoff moved the appointment of a Committee of one from each ward on resolu- tions, The following were appointed: Emil Dietzsch, Mr. Swain, Mr. Fister, C. Stander, Mr. Cohlhardt, John Eramer, Mr. Schoenhafer, Will~ iam Keall, Mike O'Halleran, Joseph Zemischet, Honry Ackhoff, Ed. Sairrtz, H. M. Heath, John Enwright, Mr. Brecher, John Remwald, F. Trill- man, W. Meyer, Thomas Foley, Lorenz Schaidt, P. Harter. ,_ DUTIES OF THE DISTRICT COMMITTEES. The Chair said that the District Committees of their neighbors, discover the standing of the candidates, The information procured in that way was no doubt correct. The League would have no reason to be ashamed of their sction. They had slready selected a Legislative and Aldermanic ticket. They were free to choose from the tickets nominated by the two political parties. They were called the “slums of socie- ty,” but he believed if they had the select- ing of men, independent of the caucuses, they would have selected a ticket better than either. They “had selected their Benatorial and Legislative candidates. Every man on their ticket was selected becanse of his devotion to their interests. [Applause.] They had also selected Aldermen pledged to repenl the Sunday liquor law. [Applause.] Every friend should resort to their headquar- ters. The Committee was ready at all times. to hear suggestions. It was their interest and their policy to have men on both tickets pledged to their cause. Where both candidates were in favor of repealing the ordinance they would not interfere ; but where one wasdoubtful or against them, theywould work with all their might for his opponent. [Applause.] ExoAlA, Walsh wiated e Ausiliary Commit- tee of one from each ward. That motion prevailed. - The Chairman desired to know how the Com- ‘mittes should be appointed. A gontloman suggested that it be done by the % voice of the people.” 5 Tt was finally settled that the Chair should name the men. THE MOST INMPORTANT BUSINESS, The Chairmsn said the most important busi- ness was' yet before them,—the appointing of men to look after the polls. They could not have another mass meeting of that League withont calling it through the papers and having it public, which would not be advisable. They-should sppoint 8 Superintendent for each wug ; that Buperintendent ehould appoint a Og) }Li:x for each precinct, and each Captain sub- ordinates. *Mr. Michelson thought the wards shonld have control of their yoting places ; if not, what good ‘were the ward clubs. Mr. Abrams said it should be arranged that every saloon-kee) should close on election day, and attend the polls in person. [Cheers.] ‘Enoh saloon-keeper, whether Dutch, Irish, or French, could control a dozen or more votes [apé)lsuaa], snd they ehould turn out and work, and show the city that they were deter- mined to win. [Cheers.] Any man who did not attend the polls should be expelled from the League, [Cheers.] * . The Chairman did not want s single vote against the motion, and let no man give the lie on election day to his vote on that day. [Ap- ‘plause.] The motion was carried by acclamation. It was decided to open the saloons after the polls closed. A SPECIAL APPEAL. | Mr. Abrams moved that a_special appeal be made to wholesale liguor dealers, jobbers, dis- tillers, brewers, and every man angtied, how- ever remotely, in the business, to work on eleo- tionday at least. The motion was made be- cause the distillers, wholesale dealers, jobbers, andbrewers had so far been derelict in their daty, and did not take an interest in the League. ’fixe ‘motion prevailed. THE TIOEETS. . Mr. Frank warned them against allowing the tickets to be stolen. - There were several emphatic assurances that nohody would steal them. James Ford moved that any jobber, distiller, brewer, or wholesale dealer who was not a mem- ber of the League be not patronized byits mem- bers. The Chairman did not think the motion & fair one. Men would not be driven. motion would be withdrawn. Tt wes withdrawn. : The Cheirman snnounced that a buggy would be very nseful on the morning of election to dis- tribute tickets early in tho day. A man should be appointed in each ward to diecharge that very imgorb&nt duty. member thought that the members of the League should have charge of the tickets. ‘The Chairman suggested that what was every- body's business was nobody’s business. They should appoint men, and hold them responsible. The tickets shonld be in press by Friday night. It was moved thata member of each ward, and one from each precinet, be appointed to take charge of the tickets, The motion was agreed to. Tt was moved that the Advisory Committes, which was to be appoinied, be authorized to ac a8 the Distributive Committee. - Ex-Ald. Walsh thought that the appointment of these Committees should be left to the Ex- ecutive Committes. ¥ ‘Mr. O'Brien thought it would be judicious to have the committee appointed by the Chair. He, therefore, moved that the committce bo appoint- ed by the Chair and the Executive Committes together. o smendment, which the Chair said he hoped ‘would not prevail, did not prevail. The motion ihat the Committes on Tickets be the Advisory Committee, aud vice versa, did prevail. Mr. L. O'Brien moved that the' Confer- enca Committes meet and report the Sub-Com- ‘mittee from the precincts appointed by them, to the Campaign Committee. It was agreed to. : iy QENEBAL REMARES. ~ The Chair called upon any gentleman present who had anything to eay, to Bay it to the Chair. Mr. Barnard was called upon to make some re- marks. He said he had followed the business done very clogely, and had been co-operating with the Campeign Committee, and given them what experience he had gained from the past twenty years' city residence. As far as he could judge, the League could adopt both tickets, and Tely upon some men on both sides. He called | his hearers to witnees that when the liquor ques- tioncamenp, and was met by them en masse, thoy always carried their intention. He believed the prosige of the liquor law by the Legislature, ast winter, was sprung upon them in & most ill- begotten manner. He had beon e delegato to & convention of liquor dealers, in place of drunken vagabonds, as the papers called them; he found the convention a tema.rkn.bldv uiet and orderly ome, such-: as ha een callod this morning. ' And the Springfield papers paid them the compliment of saying that they ere the moet orderly, well-behaved Convention that ever met in that city. He called upon his hearers to work might and mein at the polls. There were none g0 poor among his hearers but had pome friends; none o low bu¢ had some in- fluence. Let them work well, and they would Dot only have a majority in_the Council, and county and city officers, but encourage their {riends thronghout the State by & majority in the Lz\fiiu}nmre. He was not & public speaker, and could sey nothing very enthusiastics but it was were directed to go around, and, by inquiring | Ho hoped the | ‘unnecessary to do so, for they all felt-it down: /here (patting hischest), or down here (pattinj his breeches pocket.) fcheers‘} * “BALOON DEBTS,) - Mr. M..C. Franey said there was not aman in. the State of Illinois who conld not collect a-debt saloon for o month and _drink, and after all the liquor sold ‘him, only--fifty—cents-could-be-col- Iected. He believed that,1aw should be repealed by the men they were sending_ 'to Springfield, and when men had to pay for all they drank particular - -.law £ more for the .regeneration of Tlii- nols than all the long-faced preachers irom the centre to the circumference of the Stato. [Appleuse]. He did not beliave in sell- ing liquors unless they could collect their money. Liquors debts should ba made collectable, -the same as any other, and their members in'.the Legislature hould be soinstructed. [Applause]. REPORT OF, TEE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE. The Chair said this was the first opportunity the Executive Committee had had to collect a majority of the members. He wonld brielly give some account of their stewardship. ~They had organized this associstion eight or nine months ago, immediately after the Bassage of the Tem- perance law, for the g\irpoae of protection ageinst that Inw, and for the purpose of combin- ing their influence and efforts to repeal that ob- noxions law. The associstion in its infancy was emall, and had much, to contend with,— want of interest, want of money, and want of an organ. They did their best to bring this matter ‘before the people; their funds had been spent in the issue of circulars and publications, and in canvassing the State to arouse the people to the necessity of repealing the law. So far the offi- cershad ina Sflnt measure succeeded. They Liad obtained all the money required for legiti- mate purposes, but none had been nsked for to squander among the hirelings of political cliques. The league had sbout 1,600 members [applause], but they shonld have 2t least 1,000 more, and he appealed to all present to obtsin co-operation from those who were not members. They might not be successful in this campaign, and it would be incumbent on them to continue the organization. They He hed another_question to submit. were organized solely for the purpose of defend- ing their rights, in opposition to the .enforce- ment of the Statelaw. Theyhad provided that no member should belong who was not legally. au- thorized to do business. Anyman who violated law forfeited his membership. He was bound to obey law. What was meant by this was, that he would not wilfglly dei;{ law. The most prud- ent man might be compelled to fight a malicions Emsemtion, and that man would be defended. juch contingencies might happen to even the ‘wisest and most &rudent of men. There was another cleas of offences under the municipal Iaw. Those offences did not come un- der the control of the Lesgue. It had been suggested that the League should not only pay the expenses of defending- sgainst the State law, but also against the city ordinance. They should at the same time impress upon the liquor- sellers the 'necessity of oonductm%]their saloons in a quiet and orderly manner, eir strength was in the law, in observing No msan who violated the law in a factions manner should be defended. He hoped they would make the status of the saloon-man under the city -ordi- nance the same as under the State Iaw, provided the dealers became members of the Society. NO DEMONSTRATION. Mr. Mathieu made a motion to have a demon- stration on Sunday. [Cries of “No."] _If they did not want it on Bunday, be would withdraw the day. They ought to huve a demonstration. {Criesof *No."] ) A Lesguer was of the opinion that the best demonstration they could have would be to work on the day of election. THE, POLICE COUBT BUITS. Mr. Wemberg moved that the expenses of the suits before the Police Court, and of the cases to be instituted, shonld be defrsyed by the League. Christopher Eloss believed they should all kce? open next Sunday. . [Applanse.}. He moyed that 10 expenses be paid yet, snd that orders be issued from the League headquarters o every saloon-keeper to keep open next Sunday. Mr. H. B. (“Bufilo™) Miller thought the Constitation would have to be changed befora the direction of the funds could be altered.. He moved that the subject be referred to the Execn- tive Committeo. - Ex-Ald. Walsh thought the motion of “:fuf“' tlemen to keep open simultaneously, wor be in direct violation of the law. : Ald. McCaffrey informed the meeting that he opened on Bunday week, on his own responsi- bility, and was wifim {0 defend himself. Mr. Miller's motion prevailed. sl .. Mr. Reeley got three cheers and & tiger,” ‘and the meeting adjourned. THE SUNDAY LAW. The Temperance Burenu Watching the Police- men ns well ns the Saloons—Officers who Fail to Report Violations of the Ordinance to be Arraigned Before the Boord of Police—~ Announcements of Temperance Meetings. The action of the saloon-keepers throughout the city on Sundsy wag closely scrutinized by the sgents of the Temperance Buresu, who were keenly alive to any violations. The mys- terions young men with notebooks, whose gyra- tions were noticed some weeks ago, were very active indeed on BSundsy. Not only were they securing testimony sgainst salodn-keepers, but the policemen on the beats where liquor was being sold were jealously waiched, and their names and numbers registered. ‘The maneger, Mr. Kelly, states that quite a number of saloons were notified, and & larger number of policemen booked than the police force dreama of. They will hold the names of the officers over until the report of violations has been offi- cially made. Should any saloon be omitted, the policeman upon whose beat the violation occur- red will be brought up before the Commission~ ers. The Burpan hes determined not to ease the city authorities of their labors, and will continue to send in names of violators to the Grand Jury, who will, probably, they think, indict this time. The Bureau take the gronnd that they are not infringing upon the personal liberties of the German saloon-keepers by demanding the_clos- ing of the salopns on Sunday, irrespective of the law. The latter camgh.in that they are cur- {ailed of their privileges,but the Bureau hold that they aro not. The law in Germany compels the closing of'the saloons on Sunday, excepting for a few hours, and the saloon-keepers in' Chicago ara called upon to sacrifice only s little more of their business hera than they are required to do in the old country. Thus they make a false igsue, eay the Burean. They.maintain that the Germans, i¢ they would think sbout it, wonld conclude that they were being fairly dealt with. The members of the Burean join issue with the Germans on the subject of Iagerbeer. They maintain that half the crime Which they are called upon to investigate arises {rom the con- sumption of beer, and the intoxication conse- uentupon it, They claim that tho murderer of %ul!s.hm on the North Side.wes rendered intoxicated upon lager beer only, and that the evidence in the trial of the murderer of Mc- Williams, Callen, proved that that exemplary young man had only been thrco timesin a saloon in the conrse of his usefullife, and that he had, on the night of the murder, drank five glasses of Iager beer and nolhinq else. Mr. Kelly ssid to a reporter yesterday, ** The most brutal case we have had ‘arose from lager beer drinking. A drunken rofiian, drunk on beer, threw his wife upon_the floor and - threw knives at .ber.
