There were 4,000 persons present, with many ladies. L. C. Weir opened the mecting and introduced Gov. Noyes as President. The Governor made one of his ‘brilliant little specch, saying: GOV. E. F. NOYES' SPEECIL My Feiiow Citizexs: I cougratulate yon, the Republican party, and the country that the Na- tional Convention which recently assembled in this hall had the-prudence and wizdom to place in nomi- nation for the Presidency 3o noble and true a_man’ as Rutherford B. Hayes. I have known him, s you have, long and well. At the bar, nthe army, in the domestic circle, among his friends, and in public life, Iknow that his private character is above reproach, as pure and &poticss as the unsnllicd snow, and that his public carcer chal- Tenge criticism from the most enctlnghof his op- ponents; he is brave and prompt to do his duty, re- Pardiess' of personal conscquences, and posseuses ractical common sense chough for half a dozen bresidents. 1le has made no mistakes. Ie be- lieves that the Jaws of his country onght to be faith- fully and rigidly enforced, and that there should be ample protection for person and propertythronghout the length and breadth of the land. He is in fall sympatay with the spirit of reform which scems to have taken posscssion of the public mind, and under hix administration public thieves and rascals will nollpmspcr and grow rich. Hehas exempli- fied in all his life that he is OPPOSED TO SHAMS AND VAIN SIOWS of every sot; to that extravugant manner of living which has resulted in the downfall of so many pub- Jic men, and which has invaded almost every avenue 'of private life. When he enters the White House, as he is sure to do, he will Dear himself with the same quiet modesty as though he were passing the threshold of his quict home at Fremont. There will be no kingly pa- geants to mock the simplicity of republican ‘nsti- futions. It is not likely he will ever be seen on the avenue four-in-hand, and it is certain that his fricnds, associates, and advisers will be selected from men of upright character and high attain- ments. He will labor for the pacification and roaperity of- the South; for the enforcement of the aws; for honest {mymcnt of the ma- tion's debts; for honest monecy; for re- trenchment, _economy, d_ reform . in an the civil service of the country. Die will have 8 dignided, able, and honest adminietration which Will command the _confidence and subscrve the in- terests of the people. His nomination HARMONIZES ALL DIFFERENCES existing in his party, and combines all elements of guccesy. Liberals, Reformiers, Radicals, und Con- servatives, black and white, ‘native and foreign- Dorn, all who do not desire that the Democratic party should come into power again, can and will Yote for Rutherford B. liayes. ' In this city and county. where he has lised so long and boro himsclf so uprightly, we fo_ give him mest November 5. or 6,000 majority at least, and if the Cincinnati Enquirer bolts the St. Louis nomination, 2s I sup- pose m self-respect it will be compelled to do, we TWay compromise by making the vote of Hamilton County unanimous for Hayce. ‘Without detaining you longer, and thanking you for the honor of being called to preside_ovef this Yast nssembly, I_have the honor and very great pleasure of intrducing, or rather presenting, one F'hio necds no introduction to any sudience in the United States {tromendous applause], one who Wil henceforth be * welcomed everywhere and by overybody except the thievesof the revenue and the rabhers of their fcllow-men, Gen. Benjamin Bristow, late Sccretary of the Treasury. . {Cheers.] MR. BRISTOW'S SPEECH. The wholeaudience joinedin a great cheer, lon drawn out, s Mr. Bristow got to his fcet an faced them. His reception by the thousands present was a great ovation. e ‘could not help Fecognizing this fact, but instead of swelling With the pride of the occasion, he scemed rather to shrink within himself just a little. His mod- esty was as marked as his big, fine face, head, and body were to the eyes of those ncar: He winced a little under the repeated volleys of spontaneous, hearty applause. His cyes sought the floor, and his iead drooped until the grand demonstration had worn itself out, and then he procecded to speak. He spoke with a strong clear voice,—a voice that became musical when exerted. Mr. Bristow is not brillant in oratory, but he is straightforward, connected, and con- vincing. He spoke as follows: FrLLow Crrizexs: The sssembling of this vast audience to ratify the work of the National ‘Repub- lican Convention held in this hall last week shows that the patriotic people of Cincinnati, who re- eponded 50 nobly to their country's call ia the hour of danger and threatened dissolation, are notyet feady to tarn that country over to the supreme tontool of mere professionsl politicians and ped- dlers of patronsge. 1tisa ‘hopeful sign of the times 10 gec in thia city of solid wealth and substantial industries eo many of her best citizens and active interest in the struggle for party supremacy. Since the imposition of internal taxes made neceseary by the latc War, Cincinnati bas paid into the National Treasury the aggregate sum of ), 000, appiause], to #ay mothing of the amount paid ngluctly through another branch of the revenues. Your great city has paid to the Government in this fiscal year one-tenth of the entirc internal reve- nue collected from forty millions of people. Why, then, should not the people of this_city fecl adeep interest in all that concerns the Administration of the Government—the collection and disbursement of revenue for its supports You have a right £o inslst apon the faithful collection, in any part of the conntry, of the taxes imposed by Jaw [vast ap- i pizuse], and itis egually your Ticht and duty to demand that every dollar #o collected shall be ap- plicd to the legitimate purposes of the Government, and to none other. (Cheers.] To this end, it be- ‘hooves every citizen to see $o it that none but competent and fajthfal men are clected to office. [Applause.] When the people become indifferent 10 the sclcction of their public servants, and suffer our popular elections to_pass into the control of mere peace-eeckers andjprofessional politicians, then. fndeed, will have come a danger {0 our com- mon conntry morc insidions than treason, and more certaln than armed rebellion, to bring decay aad nltimate destruction. This great outpouring of the Convention . DID ITS WORK WISELY AND WELL. Youare here for the purposeof rulifying that work, and the enthusiasm of the honr shows how heartily your approval is given. The platform of principlés is one upon which every —patrlotic citizen . who loves freedom and justice may securely stand. It declares for equal and exact justice to all men, liberty snd cquality in the exercise of all 1 1|;N)lilh:.lll. and public rights, to be enforced if need be by all the power conferred upen the the Government by the Con- stitution. In this declaration is embodied the highest aim of Government, and without its prac- tical operationno Government is really frec or worth the supportof 3 free people. Conceding perfect liberty and exact equality to those who sought by violence to overthrow the Government, it demonds the eame security and right for the mewly-enfranchised race . which “follosed the ilag and kept step to the music of the Union." ‘Thix is but another form of expression for the idea that this Government isa nation of one people, and mot a mere leaguc of many States. ];1‘ tie platform commits the party fallyand aquare- THE RESUMPTION OF SPECIE PATMENT Pxpp]n\ue}. which is demanded alike by the best ntcrest of the people and the solemn pledyes of the Government. ‘there must be no step back- ward, but continuous and steady progress toward resumption, and return to the ~money of the Constitation. Ever{ expedient for the revival of onr prostratc industries, which falls short of absolute resumption and complete fulfillnent of all our national obligations will prove inadequate and deceptive. The necessitics of the couniry demand the restoration of conf- dence in business and commercial transactions, and this will come only from a stable currency and readiness to discharzé all nationall lisbilitics ac- cording to the letter and spirit of the undertaking ~“The Convention has given us a simple and eus method of reforming our civil service, which is neither more nor less than the practical applica tion in public aiairs of the rule which worksso well in private life—that EVERY MAN SHOULD MIND HIS OWN BUSINESS #nd leave others to do likewise. Members of Con- gress who the Constitution charges with legisla- tive duties should not dictate appointment to oftice s rewards for pereoual poliucal service, but should leave the Executive frec toczcrcise his constitntional functions inthe seloction of officers with reference to honests, fldelity, and capacity under the sanction of his onth to take care that the laws _arc faithfully execated. When this dis- tinction between legislative and exccutive fanc- tions comes to be fully recognized and observed, it will be easy enongh for the Executive to reform and clevate our civil service. Without thisit is impossible. 2 'he Convention has strucka blow at the very root of the evil, and has indicated the true remedy for the dan, us tendencies of a practice which comes down to us from the Democratic party. The platform pledges the party to specdy, thorough, and unsparing “prosccution and punishment of all public oilicers who betray otticial trust. [Great ap- Plansc.] The Convention did not stop to consider, 28 som¢ wonld have us do, whether such prosecu- tions and punishments would be faithful to the party. 1t has given public notic that Plunderors of the public revenug and eorrupt ofl- cials, whether Democrats or Republicans, must Iheetns they deserve the rigorsof our criminal etatutes. The necessity for purity in the public service, and the duty that rests upon us {0 preserve and perpetuate our_form of Government demand the strict observance and fulfliment of this pledge. Recognizing fally the valne of popular education fapplause] and the absolute importance of com- plete scparation of Church and State {applausc], the Convention has declared in favor of u constitu- tional amendment forcver securing public fnnds or property for tho support of public schools against ascclarian control or influence. Thisis NO ABRIDGMENT OF RELIGIOUS FREEDOM. It leaves every man free to follow the dictates of his own conscience in matters of religion, but pre- yents the use of money raiséd by taxation for building up any secular denomination.

In a word, the standard which the party has car- ried successfally through four successive national -contests has not been lowered. but advanced still higher. ‘The Convention which assembled last week hias shown to the world that it represented a party of progress, ready, willing, and able to move Torward in the service of the Government, and to Jearn lessons of wisdom in the school of experi- guce. Tpon this platform it bas placed men who ear HONORED NAMES IX OUR COUNTRY, the excellence and purity of whose public services and lives furnisha sufiicient guarantee that the principles announced will be carried out in letter and spirit.

They are no less interested than ourscives in preserving the Union aud perpetunting the blessings of freedom. Let them bury the hurtful prejudices engendercd by civil war, and once more to the front with their old allies and political fricnds, who will gladly welcome them. The platform and candidates of the Republican party are worthy the support of every maa of the South who is willing to forget the bitterness of the past, or who has within his ‘bosom a apark of pa- Tfiotic hope for the foture of our common_country and indissoluble unjon.

This election will be a momentous one, involvin, consequences of the highest_importance, kindre in character to that of 1860. I wish I could imprees upon overy cltizen of Ohlo the intensa fecling I have of the importance of our vote in Ohio. For the first time in the history of onr Stato we have been honored by the nomination of & native citizen, resident in our State, in whose Tecord, private and public, we have ‘just pride, \ who has been nominated chiefly becauso he was choscn by the Ohio people as_a worthy repre- sentative. of the great Republican party, which Ohlo has always beena prominent supporter. From the fact that Ohia by its vote In October will first indicate the drift of public sentiment, and the probable result of the November clection, It be- P omes us at once to prepare for the mout determin- cd and vigorous canvnsa that has cver been held in Ohlo. The voice that is spoken in our canvass will be heard all over the United States, and as our people vote so will probably be the vote of the Miajority of the people of the Union. Now wa can enter this canvass with full faith that we are right, that our candidates are deserving of all the honors that we propose to confer upon them, and that onr success is of the highest [mportance 1o the public. Letus enter it withall the energy and vigor possible, and neither abate nor dell{ l:i exertion necessary to succees.

Dupuqus, I, June 24.—The Hayes an¥ Wheeler ratification mecting held in this city to-night was the largest political demonstration ever held here. A large stage was constructed in front of the Custom-House, which was lighted by extemporized gas-jets, and on which the Germania Band discoursed patriotic music. Ninth street, between Main aod Locust, was well nigh filled with people, and their riveted attention marked the proccedings throughout. - There were 3,000 present, who stood their ground for over two hours. Mr. C. Woodruil, of the ZTimes, presided. The opening speech was made by Judge D. S. Wikon, occupying half-an hour. Col. D. E. Lyon was then intro- duced, and was then in turn followed by the fev. J. H. Rhea, and Dr. E. A. Gilbert, who for years past has acted with the Liberals, and was The Opposition candidate for Secretary of State * four years ago. He declared his full” and sin- cere return to the Republican party. He was followed by J. W. Shannon, of B,lkndor, who made a telling specch. Then M. C. Woodruff of the Times, and J. W. Holman made short specches. All were listened to with profound attention, and each speech elicited hearty ap- plause. Bonfires were burninz, and the Rodman gun was fired from the biuffs bard by.
