THURSDAY, OCTOBER 31, 187 or NEW YORK. The Morse Finds MRestame New York Politics. England’s * New Policy---An American Alliance. - Grant Men and the New Cabine Talks with Washburne and Wilson. From Our Own Correspondent. New Yo, Oct. 27, 1872, 1 came over from Washington to New York Iast Thursdsy, snd found four dsys of rain, and no horses sbroad. That is, the few horses on duty msde the absence of the species manifest. The was now & lonely creature, and the ‘probability of also losing the beast which had been spared to him made him nearly & gentle- man, and he stroked the poor quadruped wWith that unwanted compassion, born of interest, which the negro-trader sometimes showed as his chattel pined, approaching the market. THE HORSE RESIGNS. The horse was on a strike, all over the great city. Nature had permitted him to preach a ser- mon toman, and attest the blank in humen affairs which his extinction would produce. He was dumb and he opened not his mouth, but thers was no mneed of speech to tell his loss. The crowded lanes in the business part of the city were liko Venitian alleys, teeming with men, but barren of wheels or the cheery cry of drivers. Man, instead, was pushing in the shafts of the barrow,—thinking, ‘perhaps, that, in the common need of draught- enimals, he might be compelled to submit to flogging, as the horse’s substitute. At the Broadway corners, the people waited in groups soxionsly and with dissppointment, connting the infrequent omnibuses. The cab-stands were vacant; the blacksmiths were idle; the veteri- nary quack became an important personage. As much space was given in the prints to the sor- rows of the stables, as if a human plaguoe had apread over society and the hospitels wera fall. Bo unforeseen, so awkward, 8o calamitous an af- fiction, the great hive of the busiest of man- kind had not known. And many who were per- plexed by this unwonted deprivation perhaps reflected npon the dependonce of man, and the uncertainties of the commonest sources of help. With dogs horses 1sid up, cows diseased, &nd hens refusing, after the prevailing fashion, to assume the duties_of maternity, what would become of mau? When the horse abdicaies, man is an ass, and the shoemsker an architect. Buch is life! 4 BELMOXT. Society—that pudding where the plums are changed every day—is in a state of owlish in- quiry and wonder over the announcement that & great horse-fancier, August Belmont, is sbout to sell his pictures, and retire to Europe with his family. Alzs. Smith tells it to Mrs, Jones, who starts an unpremeditated whopper on the face of it, - because gossip and lying are to each other like bud and blossom. Given a confidential social talk of this lind, and a third person for the object, and the devil at onca sharpens his pencil to take tally: Mr. Smith meantime, at the club, talks it over to Mr. Jones, and sauces tshe_“ilnfident with & sour philosophy. Says mith : ““He leaves New York because he is disgusted with the country. Little chaps are the stand- ards of reference in finance, politics, and patriot- ism. Belmont quits us because he don't want to get blue by looling at the thing.” ‘¢ It’s horse,” eays Jones. * He has spent & dueal fortune in seeking to lesd the American like Baron Rothechild. All is vanity. saith the preacher ; and, when one wearies of the horse as a recreation; there is no more of life to live.” » 3Mr. Belmont probably goes abroad because the ladies of the household are weary of housekeep- irg 2nd the drudgery it entails ; “because the £o- cial life of Europe is less arace than withus; becsuse the banker is growing old, and the breaking up of daily associations is in itself re- lief and rest; and, lastly, because nobody has earned & better right, by spplication, success, 2nd the uee of money for hospitable and ele- vated purposes. _He has been = generous patron Of the turf, and, in grest part, ereated tho recing-park in tho North, In finance, he never *‘syndicated,” nor covered Washington with lob- by-runners. In politics, he did his best to kee) the Democratic gn.\"ty out of the River Twee: T0 years ago, Bill Tweed, supported by & ma- texisd past of the New York Democracy, tried to drive r. Belmont from the Democratic Na- tionz! Committee. The effort failed, but Tweed Dad already injected the whole body of the party in New York with poison. The period of Ar. D:lmont’s departure is that of chaos, with all thinga that are possible in embryo, and darkness Dbrcads on tho face of the deep. Ho is to be ab- scnt three years., Ah! in three years what may not be ? TEE DRIFT OF PUBLIC LIFE. The indications seem to be in this city that Eavemeyer, ex-Mayor, will be elected, if Mur- phy, Weed, and Tweed together can do it. This ‘movement will be one of self-defence and gen- eral public spirit in Grant's interest, to prevent the e of the election of James O'Brien. The Democratic candidste, Abraham R. Law- rence, wonld be generally voted for, if it was not feared that the Irish vote was being spirited away from him to O'Brien. The latter is accus- ing the Grant people of playing fest and loose with him. There is nothing to expect from O’Brien better than from Tweed. He is Tweed, with tbe ruffian element added. Roscoe Conkling says that the late elections prove that the nowspaper-press has been com- ‘pletely put down in this country. This, we are %o sUppoRe, i ono of Grant's victorics. 'He has overcome the decencies of life, like s grizzly besr eating up an inhabited bee-hive. DBut the bees will eting their way out. If not, we sympa- thize with his digestion. CHANGES AT WASHINGTOX. General Bristow will tender his resignation gfter the election, and will take a financial and legal place in association with the Texas rail- weys. Simon Cameron has “gone back” on J. A. J. Creswell, and, in the event of Grant’s re-elec- tion, will press another person for Postmaster General. ~Creswell was originally appointed by the request of Ben Wede, Cameron consenting. Cameron is training up Wayno McVeigh, his son- in-law, to succeed himself in the Senste. The small-talk about a change in the New York Tribune apifiem to have arigen from some desire of the pill-maker, Ayer, to get into Con- gress on the regular nomination “lay.” To meddle with newspapers is the latest of Ayer's remedies. War has been declared by the politiciens sgainst General Belkmap, because he would not prostitute his elvated position to take the stump end persmbulste for Grant. Fish is also de- claimed against, _ Williams, it ia thonght, must slide- a8 well. Here is the latest elate for tho new Cabinet, if Grant be his own repeater : State_ Department—Edward Pierrepoint or Daxicl E, Bickles, New York, Postal Department—Jeke Harlan, Towa. War Department—Elliha Washburne, Tilinois. Navy Department—George M. Robeson, New Jersey. Tnterior Department—George H. Stuart, Penn- sylvania. u.:.fi:tamay General—Thomas Settle, North Car- ol %}irfitm‘ G%neml—lahn 2L Hnrls.;, Kenbuckfi: easury Department—George F. Boutwe! Maseachmaettar i = Foreign missions are thus distributed b{ the wiseacres at the Fifth AvenueHotel: England, R. C. Schenk ; France, Andrew White ; Russiz, Wayne McVeigh ; Sweden, a Chicagoits, Thero appears tobe & good deal of New Yorkin the above list. Amongst noted points of policy are the_recognition of Cuben belligerancy, and o positive e}zofiny toward Mexico, Jooking 'to rail- way-development there, and security for Ameri- can investments, in the temporary occupstion of certain provinces. All the above suggestions are based upon the hen’s ides of nmS‘ -iovemmont, while as yot “ncertain whethor all ber egga ars not wnAouad, ELLIEU WASHBURNE BACK. Saturday night, I saw a short, thick-set man, with & ted face and a big nose, moving aroun the Fifth Avenue Hotel, It was Washbume, Minister to France, architect and preserver of Grant. He had just arrived in the steamer Deutschland. He said that he had found an uncomfortable e, and was going at once to Galens. He mma over only to %ay & vhzitéxmcl should y return o inquired about_the Credit Mobilier and other exposures of members of Congress, and said : S8 flthom all como out. Bome of those fel- 1ows who used to pitch intome need ventilation. 8Ye athy with them. , % li)nngs t:fi': Zfl"zng in France, he remiarked, e had not been under any great privation, ex- cept when the bread_gave out, during the siege of the Commune. He bad left behind him, ss custodians of the Legation, his gon, Gratiot Washburne, and Frank iMoore. Under the su osition that Grant would be re-clected, Wash- e S4id 1ibe mo Cabinet changes, T guess, till the 4th day of March!™ i Mr. Washburne further said that it was unfor- tunate the regnant party were to have so great 8 jority in Congress. : " e %00 large,” ho maid; jobbing will be too easy.” f Interrogated a8 to whether France was now prosperous, Washburne said. « Yea ; it is looking up. s Government will tinue at the head of affairs, an some clnm%eain the institutions, suc robably con- superintend a8 the oth of the Legislature and the fran- ig provisional only; but he modifying cl.u'ne.xm 'HENRY WILSON'S OPINIONS. ‘Wilson has been several days in New York. He will speak in Virg’.nin and Delaware, and then retire to wait for the election returns. He gaid, in a very hoarse voico, that he should bo disappointed if every Northern State did not go for him ; said Mr. Bumner was better, and that Frank Bird wonld get about 50,000 votes in Massechusetts ; said, further, that he had no good feclings towara felonionsly-inclined carpet- aggers ; and belioved in temporizing and con- ciliating old_party friends who had wan- dered oft. He said that the Administra- tion had noticed that Mr. Colfax's district did not give its usual majority in thelate Indiana election, and that Mr. Morton's friends wers sulk7 ebout it, as hehad noticed in In- diana, Wilson s0id that ho had made 160 speeches in the campeign,—28 in Pennsylvanis, and 25 in Indiana, THE NEW DIP IN THE TROPICS. General Bristow, Solicitor General, prosumes that, in the event of Grant's success, all the Cabinet will tender their resignations. Wiseacres allego that Grant is weary of Dela- no, and is not nltofi:her ‘satisfied with the pre- vailing probity of his Department. He is also charged with entertaining ideas of & BSpanish- American policy at variance with Mr. Fish, and more in accord ith Pierrepoint and Sickles: this policy is_said to be enlarging rigor toward Spain in American waters, witl England for our 2115, and o 80rt of compulsory gustdisnship over Moxico, backed as well by English acquiescence. The Bnglish have, of late, manifested a de- 6ire to ses the United States loss concerned to- ward the San Juan corner than with points of American soil where English money is invested without adequate physical security, as, for ex- ample, in the ragway between Vers Cruz and Mexico. Bo vast an amonnt of our bondsis held in Bngland.—bonds of all sorts, civic, corporate, State, and Federal,—that Brother Bull, so far from being jealous of us, prefers that we shall play conginsiadore, and strengthen his secarity by all judicious expansion. He has also taken a Iarge loan for Spain ; but affairs there continue unsettled, and the Cuban revenue is diverted by thieving Captains-General, so that Mr. Bull feels lirtle consoled with the possibility of Spain suj pressing an_insurrection already four years old and gallant still, The ciforts of Mr. Macies and others to effect English sympathy in favor of Cuba have been, in very greab mensuro, suc- cessful, &nd theré ia s literary and bumanifarian clamor for Cubs, in England, of more reputa- Dbility than we have known in- the United States. To ~satisfy _this ‘demsnd, and forestall Russia and North Germany. in their Iriendly advances towards tho United States, itis asserted, in Fifth Avenue Hotel circles, that Mr. Gledstone’s policy has assumed the form of an Anglo-Saxon nlliance, the English nayy answering for the loss of ours, and our olicy on this Continent, whatever it may be, to Bocome alao Great Britaic's, THE NEW ANGLO-SAXON TREATY. A man of some im&ar{mca ‘was going over all this to me last Friday night. He had just re- turned from abroad, and was full of it. He said: ““England is governed by politicians, just as we are, and the first point of all policyis to keep themselyes in office. The issue of the Alabama- Claims Commission and of the San Juan Arbi- tration has offended English vanity, and ren- dered the Gladatone party snxious to sccomplish something in America to offset at home the po- litical effect of those doings. “Thero is, besides, no_policy for England to urene abroad. The Russo-Germsn coalition a8 left Ler out, and revived all her gonsitive- ness about Indis. France isin no condition to become her ally, as in the Crimean war, and, ‘meantime, North Germany is vigorously tcek- ing to challenge England as s _commercial pow- er. Inthis extremity, the only alteinative of England is America,—3 nation which is drawing 3l the Increase of Europe to itgelf, in immigra- tion and the investment of capital. 4 America is in & position, and of o spirit to have s policy in its own walers. England pos- sesses nothing in America worth retaining, ox- cept that which is confided to_tho United States, —more than a thousand millions of dollarg in our industries and indebtednesses. ‘¢ The policy which her most sagacious eapi~ talists—who are also her greatest statesmen— press upon the Englich Government, might ba called the Grester Britain policy.’ It is to back up the United Ststes, which possesses every- He ' thing to compel its will over Spanish America and the West Indies, except a navy. That na stands rea%y made and manned, and wall nig] useless to England. # Wherever Amerjcan policy can make head- way, English money will get the first chance to take root. In the American policy, to equal troubles of Irish and Confederate State finances will be absorbed. With England the ally of America, England will share that all but unani- ‘mous consideration which America is receiving. And the far-seeing eye of the English ‘practi- calist’ is not unmindful of & reciprocal commerce with 5 country which is soon to ‘turn’ Great Britain in the production of coal and iron, and is already the greatestconsumer in the world!” Put all the above in your pipe and smoke it. POSTSCBIPT: THE NEW YORE MUDDLE. O'Brien i selling out nominations to Congress for cash in hand to aid him in his election. ~ His right-hand man is one Banker. The rumor is cutrent that O'Brien and Murphy have quar- relled, and the quarrel is irreconcilable. It is the story that Thurlow Weed snd Tom Murphy found a rascal more to their liking than O'Brien in Williem M. Tweed, whose price was not a high office like the Mayoralty, but merely nepenthe, rest, and the enjoyment of what he had stolen elready. O'Brien was so ambitious that he might expose Mr, Murphy in some future {freak, as he had exposed Tweed before. It was not deemed gafe to trust him, as he had re- fused, at any rafe, to throw Kernan overboard for Dix, and it is Weed's chef deeuvre to have produed Dix. % “If anyman attempts to haul down Dix,” BAYS Weefl'i “ghoot him on the nine-spot.” “This did the unhappy O'Brien find himself compelled to do, and be was doomed. Mr. Tweed had more machinery than O'Brien, and could contribute money, instend of requiring it. He could say, like Fagen, “It's & pity to heng an old, old man. Let the old man go. He's only an oldman!” o Mr. Davenport, at Mr. Tweed's showing, cut the reggstry down to 144,000 in New York, and 75,000 in Brooklyn, and it was deter- mined that Grant should hot bave to carry O'Brien and the possible excesses of his Mayor- alty. Mr. Murphy wished no divided realm. With Havemeyer, he could have & respectable instrn- ment; with O'Brien, & youthfal, vain, and tem- erate man, conscious of his strength, and of guundleas ambition. Mr. Weed was one_ of Tammany's gossips himself, two years ago; Mr, ]é[m—phy, the same. They felt ‘cordial toward ig Bix. fnd 80 Havemeyer wag brought out, 2 Demo- erat like Dix, and indorsed by the Republicans, by O'Conor, and the Committee of Seventy, “We can better afford to lose New York State,” say Grant's political friends * than be gb]igedtoa.ssuninla with & repeater and a jail- ird."” Now, does Mr. O'Brien swear vengeance? He does! " Is it real or feigned? Who knows? If heia really thrown overboard, why does Thurlow Weed talk 8o kindly abont him? Why does Edward Pierrepoint say that the causes which led him to prison were creditablo ? This we know: that Mr. Greeley’s friends, last July, refused to accept tho aid of Messrs. Sweeny aud Tweed to carry New York for bhim. If what I have related nbove be true, the Admin- istration acoept this criminal aid, and propose to pay for it by acquitting Mr. Tweed for his meni~ fegt felonies, And if in fhis they fail, and O'Brien be elected, the latter also will have been their worl ; for they took up O"Brien, and gave him the start which they could not arrest. The only worthy and justman of the three nominated for Mayor of New York, is Abraham Lawrence. WEHAT WILL MR. GREELEY DO ? Horace Greeley, if defeated, will immediatel. resume control of the New York Tribune, wit Whitelaw Reid a8 managing editor, 1t will take them just three wecks to put the New York Times horse de combat. That concern has bled everybody, candidates included. So that itsad- vocacy involves ba!_akmpmd;j upon its friends. Weed has the kidney disease, and thinks O'Brien will bs elected, “because,” says he, 1 Bae not four daya to spare to elect Haveméyer a8 ITEMA. Olsyton, of Atkausas, designs, if electod, to put Aleck McDonald or Hadley beside him, in place of Rice. Spencer’s frionds, in Alabams, give up the no- tion of re-clecting him. The Murphy gang con- tributed 82,500 to Bpencer, at hi:‘alegnghic Te- quest, last week. ATH. GARRISON RUN MAD. To ths Editor of The Chicago Tribune : Sm: In reading the New York Independent from week to week, while I notice that its political department is 1aden to the water’s edge, generally, with gophistry, nonsense, and fabrica~ tions, and its LL.D.'s snd D.D.'s have betrayed an extraordinary silliness and supercilious heartlessness in their attacks, open and covert, upon Mr, Greeley,—when Icome to the vitu- perative sand grosely-sbusive and ouirsgeous articles of Garrison upon him, I am reminded of the duel-provoking words of John Ran- dolph ageinst Henry OClay: “An hyper- bole for mespness wonld bo an ellipsis for Clay.” There never were ‘wanting zeslous Abolitioniata (ot whom the writer is one, enjoying the pérsonal acquaintance of Garrison from 1835, and enter~ taining him at my table) who thought Mr. Gar- rison's vocabulary of sbuse s&nd vituperation quite too terrific and excessive, even 28 used sgainst slavery and its supporters. But we swarded him our pardon on the gronnd of the turpitude of the system, and the means of its defence. When, however, o see this vocshulary launched af 8 man like Horace Greeley, who hag done so much for his country and humanity, and is 8 man of such noble qualitics, and lofty, pure character,—end this in the interests of a mere military man,—we are equally chagrined and disgusted, and instinctively ask, Hos the $£30,000 gift spoiled Garrison, or has he such assuranceof a Consulship to England under Grant that his head is turned | and his vials of abuse and slander are all poured out at once. Read from the last issne of the Independent. Bpesking of Mr. Greeley, he says: ‘“He is & stirrer of strife ; falsification and elander are the staple of all his haraugues. He is guilty of slander,—gross, inexcusable, wholesele slander, —28 offon as he insinuates or churges that thers has been, or is now, any haired in the breasts of the peoplo of the North towards those of the South,” “becanse of anything connected with the Rebellion.” Now, those of us who daily hear the expression of such hatred eventually ask, Is Garrison & witling? or does he falsif) when he makes such statements? He certainly don't know what he is writing about, or he ‘means to falsify facts. And his emphasis und filling-up_of epithets show his wantonness of abuse of Mr. Greeley. But Gasrison may have runmad, Hear what farther he eays of M. Greeley in the same connection: N0 such w scrupulous defemor has appesred in tho politi- cal arena as he is showing himself to bo every time ho opens his lips.” Can any lunatic asy- lum beat that ? But Garrison goes on to {lustrate his subject by exclaiming, “How he [Mr. Greeley] insulted and defamed the 40,000 loyal soldiers and sailors convened at Pittsburgh{” Had Garrison read Grant's letter on that same subject,—not his last letter (he probably had read that), but the one deted * Hoodquarters Army Unitod States, Washington, Sept. 18, 18667 It reads thua: To Edwin M, Dudley, Chairman, &c.,: Sm: Genersl Grunt directs me to ackmowledge the Toceipt of your invitation to bo prescot at a National Eiisburgh, B, o 5 100, for pelial poseses ittabu ., Sept. 23, 1866, for en, He inatracta me wr;w that it 1 mfiemry to hia habits and his convictions of duty to sttend political meet- ings of any character whatever; and ho gees with re- grat the action of any officer of the army taling a con- spicuous part in the political discucsions of the day. ADAx BADPAT, Colonel and A. D, 0. Garrison must be & big%:r simpleton than we can imagine him to e, if he had read that letter before writing a3 sbove, Ho had probabl charged himself up with Grant's letter date “Long Dranch, N. J., Sept. 9, 1872," and ad- dressed “To Colonel L. E. Dudley, Secrotary Veterans' National Committes,” which eays : - DEAB S15 : T am in receipt of yourletfer of the 4th inst,, extending to me, by your Comumittee, a pressing invitation to attend the grand Buss Convention of veteran soldiers o bo held in the City of Pittsburgh on the 17th inst. I kmow of no class of citizens better cn- titled to meet in Convention, and to have weight ac- corded to their views, * * * I wish for youall that you expect from your meeting of the 17th’ inst., and only regret that I cannot be with you on that occasion. With great respect, your obedient servant, T.'S. Graxz. We submit that Garrison, if not beside him- self wth political maduess, would not slander Mr. Greeloy for soying in 1872 what Grant, when speaking as an honest General, and before his head hod been turned with notions of the Presidency, said in 1866,—moro especially as Mr. Greeley was trying to provent the opening of wounds healed, and was six years farther from the cause of those wounds than Graut. But T scem to accomplish a double purpose ; the expcsure of Garrison's madness, and Grant’s inconsistency and stultification. I did not begin with this view. And I simply remark, that it ‘were an easy thing to imitate the Grantites in their herculean labor to make Mr. Greeley con- tradict himselt, which they have done by wrest- ing and perverting, as Flder Elias Smith, by ql\’mking the Bible word for word, proved that ~the narrow sectarian he was talking with ought to hang himsalf immediately. Thus: *‘‘And he cast down the pieces of Eilver in the Templo, and departed, and went snd hanged himself.’ That's Scrip ture, isn't it ?"” suid Smith. ¢ Yes,” sad the sec- tarian. “‘Go thou and do likewise. That's Beripture.” The two letters quoted above show up Grant most strongly in the contradiction light; and nof where circamstances and thinga had changed, 88 in the case of Mr. Greeley. But we deem all such attempts rather small business. Henry Wilson made his greatest headway in po- litical life by harping npon the inconsistencies of Daniel Webster. And it were easy to show Garrison's_inconsistency,—e. g, in his opposi- tion to pmm&:a by contending that the work was all done, and therefore the Anti-Slavery Stan- dard should be discontinued; but now turning round and supporting Grant because, after ela. very hes been more than 7 years aholished, we geerghbim “to finish the great work at the onth.” It were relevant to notice Garrison's attacks upon Charles Sumner. I fecl these the more be- cause I haveinmind & memorable oceasion whe, while Garrison was an object of popular hatre in Boston, Sumner showed him nesded sympa- thy, and ‘noticed him especially before all the people of that city; and then Garrison acknowl- edged the tolren with apparent gratitude. 1am ono of those who congider Grantism poison s and I think the virus hes been injected into Garrison’s veins. Whether he s;mgn!hizes with the Boston Pecksniffs in tho dread of Mr. Greeley's plain manners, I cannot say; but I am sorry to see the old Abolitionist 80 poisoned with Grantism asto abuse and slander such a man as Horace Greeley; and I don't think it is any the moreap- propriate in Mr. Greeley's domestic afiliction. AN OLD ABOLITIONIST. —_— Grantism in Georgia—The Game of Intimidation Began. From the Macon (Ga.) Telegraph, Oct. 23, From Mr. W. Cannon, s highly respectable citizen of Toombsboro, we_gathered last night the following particulars of one of the most high-handed outrages that has ever been per- petrated npon the soil of Georgia: 1t seems one Morris, the negro candidate from Wilkingon, has been up _ to Atlanta for some time, operating upon H. P. Farrow and A. T. Akerman, and fabricating the most absurd and preposterous Eu-Klux charges against many of the best citizens of that county. 086 WOr-~ thies, believing, doubtless, that & bold coup de main in behalf of Grant, on the eve of the elec- tion, might alarm and demoralize his opponents, it 18 said lont & willing ear to Morris, and assist- ed him to procure from United Stafes Commis- sioner 8wayze warrants for the arrest of a large number of citizens upon negro afidavits. P On Monday night, this man Morris came down from Atlanta af the hesd of a large do- tachment of United States troops, under the command of & Lieutenant, and, proceeding to Toombsboro, Irwinton, and other points, seized in their beds and arrested the following gentle- men: Dr. T. A. Simmons, Messrs. Henry Hymaps, B. Hymsns, W. Dickinson, J. D. Valandingham, ‘George Gilbert, Milton Lind- say, D. Carlisle and two brothers, Pea~ cock, These unfortunate individuals were then harried off to Sayannah, there to be tried for their lives upon the accusstion of ignorant ne- groes, who, more than probable, neither know Tior care for the obligations of an oath. Our informant has been sent to Macon to pro- cure counsel for the prisoners, and had obtained for them the services of Colonel W. A. Lofton, who left for Savannah by the night train. Other arrests, as will be seen in another col- umn, were also made in this city yesterday. We are mot posted as to the precisa nature of the charges against any of the Wilkinson par- ties, but learn that some of them date back ons or more years, and are all of the Ku-Klux de- scription, A considerable number of soldiers are stillen- camped near Toombsboro, and will doubtless con- tinue to harry every peaceful citizen who ma; happen to incur the ire of any vagabond nemy. THE FIRE MONURENT, The Coraer-Stone Laid Yester- day Forenoon. Impressive Masonic Cercmonies at Central Parl, Addresses by Mayor Medill and Hom, S. S. Hayes, The corner-stone of the Fire Monument at Central Park was lnid yestarday. Inspite of the leaden skies and raw winds of the morning, & large number of persons assembled at the Mil- wankeo depot to take a free ride to tho edge of the city and witness thecoremonies. The Grand Masonic Lodge of Illinois was invited to lay the stone with the impressive rites of the Order, and came in their regalia, accompenied by bands, Ellsworth's Zouaves, Knights Templar, and the following lodges: Cleveland, Garden City, Plo- iades, Keystone, Covenant, Wabansis, Motorio, Bigelow. Tho trair, consisting of eleven cars, kindly furnighed by the Northwestern Railroad, left at 11:30, and in fifteen minutes renched its destination. THE SITE OF TIE MONUMENT igat the terminus of Washington street. A platform had been erected, and the stars and stripes waved aboveit inthe damp air. The useful derrick from which the stone hung sus- pended, did not kmow itself in its new suit of evergreens. Carringes containing a number of tho fair sex were on the ground, and away be- yond them conldbe seen laborers carting dirt from an excavation where a lake is to abide, to where a miniature mountain is to break the mopotony of the plain. To the south were trecs, and the bit of the park already sodded, and fo the west the beginning of other ponds, and all over and around the places whereina few yenrs from dato will bo shady groves and sylvan receszes for * whispering lovers made.” Tt will be nicethen. To the north lay Hum- boldt Park, and away southis where Douglas Park is yet to bloom like another Eden. THE DISTINGUISHED COMPANY. While these topographical notes were being taken the procession of Masons was slowly wind- ing its way around the rond to the scane of ope- rations. e ?echtam took up the best Mpoai- tions they could find, among them being Mayor Medill, Hon. A. H. Burley, George W. Stanford, Henry Greenebaum, C. C. P. Holden, Isaac R. Hitt, E. F. Runyan, Clark Lipe, Charles Lod ding, David Cole, Prul Cornell, Colonel Snow- hoolk, Hon. Carlyle Mason, and sbout t%o_hun- dred others. The members of the Grand Lodge stood round in a circle, the Templars behind them, and the other Masons behind them. Silence provailed for & faw minutos, while an enterprising photographer made a picture of tho scene. CALLED TO OBDER. The Most Worshiptul Grand Master Cregier called tho ne!embhfinm arder, and said that on. Oct. 30, B. C. 1003, King Solomon hed dedicated the ton.:sln st Jerusalem, and on Oct. 80, 1872, they had assembled to lay the corner stone of a monument to commemorate the mosé direful calamity thatever befell a people, The Grand Chaplain, Rev. Robert Collser, made a prayer. CONTENTS OF THE EOX. Grand Treasurer Church read the list of arti~ cles in the tin box to be deposited in the diminu- tive vault beneath the stone.

REMARES OF THE MAYOR, The Mayor 8aid it gave him excceding plessure to call that assemblage of citizensto order, after having vitnessed the imposing coremonies of laying the corner stone of a Fire Monument. It was & hnxépy conception to erect & monument of salamander iron that went through the fire of s year 5go. People were apt to forget the most stupendous events. Inone short yeor half the horrors of the firo were obliterated, and at the end of another no trace would ba visible to the eyo of the destruction that swept over the city on that eventful October night. - it was a happy thought to make o monument that would everre- mind them snd their childron of a calamity to which it was supposed the city would have suc- cumbed, and of the grand and glorious resur- rection’ which so quickly followed. In other citiea monuments were raised to kecp giaen in the minds of the people e great deeds of heroes and statesmen which would otherwise be forgotten, and hero would stand that noblo spire pointing over the plaiz; to perpetuate the trumph of energy and enterprise, an exu‘lflzle worthy of emulation to the end of time. He would mot occupy their time any longer, but give way to an old and honored citizen, THE HON. 5. §. HAYES. Mr, Hayes reviewed the progrezs of the city from its early days to the time of the fire, de- scribed the calamity, gave statistics of the losses, and eloguently thanked those whoso noble gen- erosity that monument was designed to com- memorate. He concluded as follows : They will be honored by the peopls of Chicago and thelr posterity. e ehored Tirg of gratitudo. e sver burn in our hearts, Words of prafse snd es5 willever fall from our- Lips. And in some distant time, when the new Caicago shall have become gray. with sge, when millions of inbabitants shall enjoy their homes, or ply their industry in the blocks of brick and stone which will cover this prairie, the high summit of this monument will picrce’ the clonds, ana_ will witmess to Heaven snd to the world that the people of *Chicago are mot ungrateful. The heroes and statesmen of the present day may then be forgotten, Governments and dynas- tics may have succceded each other and passed into oblivion, but the T:ames upon these tablots will be kept ever fresh and clrar, They will ba read by our chil- dren and our children’s children to tho latest genera- tion ; 2nd the story of their warm and glowing benev- olence, of the spontaneous, immediate, overwhelming, Doundless rellef with which they floodéd us in the dark hum'd;!mu‘ calamity will still be familiar a8 household ‘words, ‘IS THE WAR ENDED ?” Anna Rickinson’s Greeley Lecturcs From the New York Sun, Oct, 26. The storm of last night detained many st home who would otherwise have svailed’ them- selves of the opportunity to hear Miss Anna E. Dickinson’s dissertatioh upon the query, © Is the war ended 7 But despite the forbidding weather, the grees hall of the Cooper Union was ell fillod with a most rospectable and apprecia- tive audience. The platform was appropriately hung with American flaga. Mies Dickiuson sappeared, unannounced and unattended, & fow minutes past 8, and withont introduction proceeded to address tho audience. Bhe wore an elegant black silk dress trimmed with black lace over white. She was greeted ‘with enthusiastic applause, for which she smiled and bowed her thanks. © Is tho war ended ?" she asked, and then_procceded to show inferen- tially that presnmably the war was still raging. She spoke of the degradation of the public ser- vico to-day; of _tho_ corruptions that everywhero preyail in official service; of the dishonesty that is thorulerather than the excep- tion ; und theso demoralized, corrupt, and dis- honest officiely are retained in office because they are the friends of General Grant. [A?hnee.] A man is judged by the company Tio Leeps. Who is General Grant? Who are hiscom- panions ? The speaker came from Pennsyl- vanie ; sho was nshamed to sayit justnow. That State had just given Hartrantt 95,000 ma- jority for Governor. Hartranft was commended to the office by s Penitentiery convict on one side, and General Grant on the other. Such are Grant's friends. Bat he is charged with many other uunfis besides bad compenion- ship—charged by others, but tho speaker would Sitks b arcn. Ho 1h.chntae s o aoato fondness for cigars and ries his friends and officeholders seo that he is abundzntly supplied; heis charged with loiter- ing by the sce, and his peculiar organ in New York last summer commended him—commended the President of the United States for his solf- denial in leaving Long Branch for a d.u{ toattend a_Cabinet meoting at Woshington [laughter]; with retaining thieves and robbers in office; with filling public positions with his personal friends and relatives. Butwhat of these charges? The great question is, I8 Grant fit to bo President? In responding herself to this question, Miss Dickingon gave & ranning sketch of Grant's de- linquencies, dwlling upon tho objections nréed against him which16d to the meeting of the Cin- cinpati Convention, which assemblage she com- mented on with great admiration. In this con- nection she introduced the nzme of Sumner 23 a lender in the reform movement, which name was received with torrent of applause. When sho mentioned Mr. Greeley as the nomines of the Cincinnati Convention the sudience_seemed to go wild with enthusissm, and for five minutes mado the hall ring with cheers and sg‘;gauss. Resuming her disconrse, Miss Dickinson said : The Cincinnati movement was opposed by the sssertion that the war was not yet ended. was songht tobe substantinted by the alliance of the Democrats with the movement. But, urged the speaker, if ever the politicians were beaten down and crushed, they were so beaten down and crushed at Cincinnati; and if ever the Domocratic party was crushed, it was crushed st Baltimore, when its representatives placed it on $he Toforta platform, and closed tho proceediogs by singing ** The Battle-Cry of Freedom.” The spealter denounced that class of yem who oxpress their determination not to vote full ; those who eay, L won't vote for Grant; about Greeley; Idon’t exactly lika Greeley; I guess I'll stay at home.” [Applause.]. If the war is not ended, it is tho duty of every mman to vote for the Administration ‘that will-carry it through to s successful termination, If the war is en then it is the duty of every citizen to vote for an Administration that will not enforce & war policy in time of peace. In response to the assertion that the country was nover so prosperous as now, ghe said that this assertion completely ig-nored the South, snd then proceed- ed to draw a vivid picture of "the desolation and financial ruin prevalent throughout the South, and urged that it was timo to call off the dogs of war from that desolated region and give it an opportunity to revive. An Administration in these States, begun in usurpation, haa ended in that generations cannot pay off. . The Southern labor question and the relation of the negro to politics, was discussed at length, tho speaker contonding that the former slaves having been olevated to the full status of citizens, with all the rights and rivileges of the whitest white men, should no longer be considered as a special and distinct class. Republics knew no_differsnce among their citizens. There ehould be no class legisla- tion. If amillion of citizens—the black voters of the Sonth—cannot eecure their rights ander the Republic without special legislation in their behalf, the Republic should ceasa to exist. Bat, say soine, the people of the South are not to bs trusted. Then when are they to be trusted? They can yield no more; can promise no more; legislation can dono more for them. Butyom say if they aro reslly in earnest in their protesta~ tions of loyalty, they will manifest it by voting for General Grant and the Republican party. ‘What is the difference in the candidates? you eay. Ithank you, Jew, for that word. Yon'say 20 womsn shonld support Greeley because he has never put pen to paper nor opened his lips in by of woman. But what has Grant done, he whose heart was first in his tannery and hides, next in_the blood of men, and last in his cigars, the White Houso, and the power of his position, but hes never raised his voice or given the aid of his position in behalf of women? A Voico—Who saved the country ? Mies Dickinson—Who saved the country? The poople. [Applause, cheors, and great oo thusiasm, lasting many minutes.] Who saved the comntry? [A voice, ‘‘The soldiers,"] Yes, the soldiers. [Apfilanse.] ‘Who saved tho country ? The man who for twenty-fivo years gave his voice and his pen to the Temoval of the great csuge of the war—Horace Greeley. [Hara fol- lowed a scene of wild confusion. The whole andience sprang to_their feet, and cheer upon cheer rent the air, hats were tossed ur to the lofty ceiling, handkorchiofs were waved, and a tumult of applause and enthusiasm raged until Miss Dickinson indicated a desire for its cessa- tion.] ¢ Quite enough,” she said; ‘‘let ushave peaca.” [Loughter.] * Let us try a littlo quiet now.” She then proceeded to draw s stri g contrast befween the two Presidential candi- dates, greatly to the advantage of the Liberal ufidigx'i;e'u ked, L ‘inally she asked, as the simple question now st issuo, and to bo sottled in November, shell the war be dragged on, and dragged of, and dragged on indefiitely for yeoro ‘and yedrs o como for selfish and political ends, or ‘shall it now be clozed up and onded? A beautiful apos- trophe to the country in its futuro greatness on the success of the Liberal movement_ closed an interesting aud eloguent, but rambling leo- ure. MISCELLANEOUS. The store of V. J.
