CHICAGO SPEAKS, EIGUT THOUSAND PEOPLE assembled on Market sereet, betweon Washing- ton and Madison, lost night. - From the north side of Madison almost to the south side of Washington, the rtreet was crowded. The night was sultry. The people suffered with the heat, but therc was no effot to get away. They stood packed and jammed together for two hours. The oceasion was Chicago’s ratification of the nomination of Hayesand Wheeler. A call had been iswned, and in responsc the Republicans of Chicago came: out in thoussnds. A stand had been erected on the east side of Markat street, in front of Field & Leiter’s store. It was 60x40 in dimensions, and waget crowded to its full capacity. On each side and in front the throng were packedin together. From thesouth- west corner of Madison and Market streets, and in front of the Central Hotel, lime lights illu- mined the scene. The character ofthe crowd was of the highest. It was no mob. Those who attended last night were men of strongth and respectin the community. No more respectable body of men have ever assembled in Chicago, and seldom in the history of this city have her strects held 8o large an_ assemblage, called to- gether in the nome of any party. Krom the first to the close the exercises were Intensely interesting. Excellent speakers had been secured, and they claimed he attention of the crowd from the start. Those who had as- sembled had come to be instructed. They lis- tened quictly to the sddresses, but now and then there came a burst of enthusiasm, that swept like a whirlwind over the throng, and carried with it the conviction that there was a terrible earnestness under the quiet exterior of that congregation. As points were made here and there by the different speakers, the applause echoed and re-echoed, androsesndswelled. Now and then some man would aska question of a speaker, and, 28 the answer anuihilated him, the crowd broke into yells of gratification. At $:20,when the mecting was called to order, a number of private carriages drove up and flanked the crowd on the north and south. In one of the carriages sat three ladies, interested spectators of thc proceedings. The windows and roofs of buildings opposite the stand were also thronged. Up and down Madison street on the south side men stood in IMnes, trying to catch an oceasional word from the stand. ON THE STAGE ‘were some 200 people, many of whom did not belong there ,and some of whom wouldn’t have got there had the police done their duty. At the entrance to the stagea struggling mass of humans clamored for admission to the exclu- eion of those for whom scats had been reserved. Among tlie invited guests present were Emery A. Storrs, R. P. Derickson, Gen. Chetlain, John C. Barker, Dr. Dyer, John H. Clough, Tuthill King, Charles H. Ham, A. L. Morrison, Phil A. Hoyue, A.J. Galloway, H. M. Shepard, O. L. Maon, W. H. Brown, Elliott Anthony, A. D. Titsworth, Avery Moore, Conrad Folz, Col. Ric- aby, W. E. Brainard,Frank Lumbard,J. II. Mulker Capt. Loughlin, Ald. Throop, George Armour, Leonard Swett, E. 8. Tehiam, W. K. Sullivan, L. L. Bond, and others. These were provided with scats in front and near the rail, where they could hear the speakers and see the crowd. Be- hind them the stand was packed and jammed to overfiowing. In one corner was Maj. Nevans' brass band, which played pafriotic airs between the specches. Frank Lumbard’s Glee Club was also {n attendance, and rendered some excellent music. DURING THE SPEECHES of Messrs. Cullom aud Storrs some fine hits were made. The question was asked Mr. Cul- lom, by some one in the crowd, if he indorsed Grant’s Administration, and when he answered he indorsed him for putting down the Rebellion and permiiting no guilty man to escape, the crowd became wild with enthusiasm. ~Mr. Storrs won the assemblage at the outset by con- gratulating the Republican party upon the con- version of the Democracy, which in its Iast glat- form had come out sgainst stealing. Both speeches were pointed and eloguent, and were reccived with delight by the congregation. PRELIMINARIES. THE ORGANIZATION. e Mr. Clough—The time has now_arrived at which we will call your attention, and I take the liberty of nominating the Hon. S. H. McCrea as Chairman of this meeting. ‘The motion was agreed to. Mr. McCrea~Gentlemen, I thank you for this mark of your esteem. I deem'it a great honor to be nominated as Chafrman of a Repullican meeting of this size and respectability. We have met ‘here this evening to ratify the nominations made at Cincinnati of Huyes and Wheeler, to indorse the wisdom of that Convention, to light the camp- fires of the Republican Campaign of 1576, the Centennial year of this great ‘Republic. We have met hére to rally around and indorsethem, and renew our vows to the old Republican party, the party of progross, of Reform, of free schools, free churches, and a free press; the Emty that hes been and is the champion of iberty and pm‘%fl::s, the party that has “always. reliecved the down-trodden. Gentlemen, we Lave here with us to-night many eminent speakers, and from the 15t I should judge that gnu will be well repaid for leaving your quiet h:;ncs on this sultry éveniag, to come down e 'VICE PRESIDENTS.

Cullom then came forward amid loud cheering, and addressed the meeting as follows: Mr. President, Fellow-Citizens of Chicago, I confess to very great disappointment to-night in having to come here to listen to several of the most eloquent men in the State who are pub- ‘lished to behere, Ibelieve, and whom I find are ot present to address you. I had expected to have had the pleasure with you of listening to tho gallant eloquent Ingersoll, to at least one of our United States Senators, and a number of other distinguished men, who I saw published to be here, but whom I understand are not present to-night. But wo must get along the best way we can. ‘We are here, my fricnds, to ratify the nomina- tion of Rutherford B. Hayes, our candidate for President, and Wm. A. Wheeler, our candidate for Vice-President of the United States. [Cheers.] Under the Constitution of the United States it becomes necessary once in every four years for the peoplo of this country to select a President and Vice-Prosident. That being a duty devolving upon us it carrles with it another duty equally important, snd that {s that as we have these selections to malic it is our duty as intelligent citizens o micet tozether ond as- certain as best we can who are the best men to elect ns President and Vico-President of the United 8tates. That is what we are bere for to talk about to-tnight. [Cheers.) WHO ARE THE BEST MEN, T say, to be clected to_rule over us for the next four years from the 4th of March next? Are they to be, in the judgment of the American ople, Gen. Hayes, of Ohio, and William A. hecler, of New York, or are they to be Sam- uel J. Tilden, of New York, and” Thomas A.” Hendricks, of Indiana? Inmy jndgment, Lsay in my judgment, it is the duty of the American peoplé to” select for those high positions the men whom_the Republican party has selected as its standard-bearers, the men” whom I have named who were nowinated at Cincinnati onthe 17th of Junc last. [Applause.] Why do I say that in my judgment they are the best men? I say, and I give as one reason, that they have ALWAYS BEEN TRUE AND LOYAL to the Government of the United States. [Ap- plause.] That is one reason. I give as another Teason, that those men arc honest men, without the possibility of any man truthfully bringing & ehasgo of corruptionor dtzhonesty agalnst them, L&\pplmlse.] Thave the honor, my fricnds, of aving o personal acquaintance with both Gen. ‘Hayes, of Ohlo, and Mr. Wheeler, of New York, and I say, without fear of contradiction, that there cannot be found in all the length and breadth of this land two purer men now before the American people. [Applause.] They are honest, they are modest, they are nnassuming, ~ they are unostentatious, they JBare . of the people, pure and simptk, and have no sympathies, no instinct, no Iaotive, no ambition, except to serve the great mass of the American people, in whatever posi- tions they may be placed. _[Applanse.] Ispeak whereof I do know when I say there arc not—I repeat it again—two purer men than the Re- ublican party selected s its national standard- carers at Cincinnatl, at our recent National Convention. [Applausc.] That is one thing in favor of those gentlemen. Well, I eall your attention to ANOTHER REASON why those gentlemen should be elected aver the other Lo gentlemen who Liave been selected by the other great party of this country. I under- take to say that the Democratic party, in sclect- ing the two candidates that they did sclect, could have scarcely found two men who had Tess sympathy with each othor in principle and in fecling upon the great questions before the country to-day than the two men that they have selected for President and Vice-President of the United States. There.is only.one common bond existing between those two Democratic nominges, and that bond is that both alike were ANTI-WAR MEN during the great struggle through which this country was passing. dudnfi the Iate War for the enppression of the Rebelllon. Those two men agreed in that plain_proposition that they were nat in sympathy with the Republican party hav- ing conirol of the Government in crushing out the Rebellion, as it did during that long strug- le. Why, my {ricnds, why should the Repub- ican party not be sustained to-day? What has it done that justifics the people of this country in saying or declaring it at the polls _that their nominees should not be elected, and that the nominees of the Democratic party should? LOOK AT THE EISTORY OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTT. When it came into power it found itself involved in a struggle to save the country, and it did save the country. While it was doing this, the conscience of the American people being quick- encd in the election of Abraham Lincoln, it seized the opportunity of wiping from the face of the American Government that stizma upon it that lasted so long. - I refer to the institution of s!:n'erg'. 1 say the Republican party abolished slavery in this count\"jy. ‘What elce did it do? It passed a law giving to the people of this country, white and black their civil rights, all alike. ~\Whatelse did it dof It gave to the colored people of this country who had been in bondage for so many years after the yarty had lifted them up upon the great platform of civil rights,~it gave those peo- ple their political rights in this country, and thereby elevated all the people to the great platform that was laid down in the adoption of the Declaration of Indcpendenve, now a few days over a hundred years ago.'The work of carrying ont, of bringing into actual reafity the prrxndnfes d down by our father' in the adop- R never heard it referr PRICE FIVE CENT! tion of the Declaration of Independence has been the work of this great Republican party of which you and I are a part to-day. What are we to-day! *Oh,” they say, ‘*TIHE REPUBLICAN PARTY IS CORRUPT. The men inhigh places in it are corrupt.” Tt Is true there Issome corruption in the Repub- lican party. There is no doubt about that. And it is furthur true that there is corruption in_the Democratic party. There is no doubt about that. And the further truth {s that the corrup- tion of the day is simply the resultof the up- heaval which Wwas brought upon the country by the great War mmu%h which the nation passed in putting down the Rebellion. 1 say, xng! say it n nll candor, I eay it disposed {0 be fair to all alike, that the corruption of the day is not chargeable cither to the Republican or the Demo- cratic party in_this country, bat is chargable to the results of the War, which any man who ever read history and studied cause snd effect, must _have known before would follow at the end of such a struggle as this nation passed through. That is the truth about that. [Ap- lanse.] Butlet me tell you, my friends, the epublican party is alive to the fact that there is corruption in this country, and the Repub- Jiean party is alive to the frrther fact that its duty, asit 3 the duty of any party, is to root out corruption and fo purify the public service s the Ropublican party has been doing. WE ARE_FOR REFORM. Isayit. The Republican party is for reform, not that sort of reform,—and’Iwant to call your attention to it specially,—not that sort of reform that would come from the handsof a man all his lifc engaged inscheming, in speca- Iation, in connection with great railroad cor- porations; not that sort of reform that would come from the hands of a man who was charged_years ago by the lnst Demo- cratic nomince for President as having been Squally involed a ballot-boxstuffing with Doss Tiweed; I say not the kind of reform that would come from the hands of a man like that, but such reform as would come from the hands of a man like Bristow, if yon plense. [Cheers. Such reform as would come from the hands of a mau pure and spotless as Hayes, the Republican nominee for President. [Cheers.] That is the sort of reform we want. And that is the kind of reform we will have, and I tell you, my friends, that when the Democratic party plants itsclf in its declaration of principle upon the platform of reform, it Is all right 5o far us that goes, but they had better have sclected men 'who would give o guarantee to the people of the United States that their propositions or decla- rations in favor of reform . i WOULD BE CARRIED OGT in case theyshould be elected to the places which they seele. We present men whose whole Tives, in every single act and in every single offi- cial position, private or public, are = guarantee to the American people that when they under- take to make o reform and declare they are in favor of it, that they will carry it out in faith to the people.” And I say that you have no guarantee that the candidates of the Dem- ocratic party, taking into account their past lives fa conncétion with thelr everyday affairs,— that their declarations of reform are made in good faith. g ‘Why, I believe almost every sentence of thefr ghtform commences with the word reform, I uve 1o objection to that. I want reform. I want tho reform to £ rascal and rogue in the public service “shall rooted out of it. Isay I am for it. [Cheers.] T care not whether it is in the civil service of the National Government or the civil service of the Btate, but when we declare in favor of it we onght to present men who are 3 guarantee in their whole lives that their declarations arc madc in good faith, and that they will be car- ried out. [Applanse. Nor, then, lct us talk a little about OUR REPUBLICAN PLATFOM. What do we say¢ We say in the outset that this i3 a pation and not aleague. Isnot that %ocd doctrine? [“Yes”]. Igay it is, and my Friend there in the crowd says yes. ‘There is no doubt about that. It nsed to be the question, but I guess our Democratic friends are not going to make it any longer since the War, but we used to have the question made whether this was 2 nation or whetheritwasal e; whether it was a nation or whetherit wasa Confederncy; whether it was a Government of States; a union of States und indissoluble, or whether it was o compact that could be dissolved upon the mere suggestion of any of the members to_the contract. The great Rebellion, the great War through which e passcd, settled that ques- tion—that it is a nmation and mot a league, and that it was indissolubleso far as the power of sny one, two, or ten States is con- cerned to dissolve it. We are not only anation, but we are a nation combined with States—in thc]u:finu%} of our Republican platform sub- stantially— tion combined with States, which combinatfon results in sccuring the perfonalrights of all the people of this cotintry, whether ot home or abrond. [Cheers.] I'tell you, my friends, it is a great truth, it is & grand idea. ~ Here at the inning of a new ecentury, this Government of ours has got to be understood to be a nation indissoluble—a nation combining with the States 0 as to protect the people in il their Tights at bome and abroad, and so that there should not be an overbalance of central power in the Na- tional Government, ot au ovcrbalance of local ower in the States. And let me say, my fril:m'ls, that in all the history of nations from the beginning of civilization the minds of the best statesmen of the world have been taxed to find out a polity and to establish a polity lx which a nation could exist fn conjunction wit an indefinite number of 50 that there should not be too wmuch power in the National Government nor too mnc};fow- er in the State Governments, and so that all to- ether could co-operato in favor of the proteo- ion of the life, liberty, and property of the people thronghout the ‘length and breadth of theland. [Cheers.) GRAST. A volce—Will you indorse Grant’s adminfstra- tion? é.!‘)plansc;] Mr. Cullom—We will talk about that. I fo- dorse a good many things that Grant has done. T indorse his Administration so far as protecting the South is concerncd. [Cheers.] ‘I indorse Grant when be puts down o rebellion. [Re- newed cheers.] I indorse Grant whon he says that e poorest man, whether he be white or black, in those disloyal States shall be protected if it takes all the power of the Government to protect him. ,EChcers,] I indorse him that much, and I in- lorse him further. Iindorse him when he saye Lot noguiltymanescape.” [Loudcheers.] And 1 tell you there are a great many glorious thing that t.znt little hero of the last War has done in on untfl every single Piaiie favor of the people and the Constitution. ! (Cheers.] But let us go on. What else belongs to that Republican platform? Why, as I have already mtimated in answer to that friend, we are in favor of : PROTECTING THOSE PEOPLE OF THE SOUTH in their rights to live, liberty, and the pursuit of lm??mcss—yes, and to the = ballot a8 well, as we ropose to show when the next election comes round. (Cheers]. Right here, my friends, I want to say a word on another tople. I am for peace; I am not for war if war can be averted. I am not for holding up the bloody shirt, as the term goes, unless it is necessary in order to protect the people of this country; but, wheneverit is necessary to protect the poorest, humblest, ob- seurest citizen of South Carolina, or .\Iluissi}{gh or Louisiana, or Massachusets, or Illinois, if the State Government wnder which e lives will not do it, then I say that the National Government hys the power and ought to doit, and if it docs not do it, it i3 not worthy of being called & Gov- ernment at all. [Loud applause.] That is the position the Republican gbm;u-es upon this question. What elsel Why we are in favor of as SPEEDY A RESUMPTION OF SPECTE PATMENTS as the jnterests of the country will allow. Cheers.] For a moment let me refer to our emocratic friends in that conncetion, Here we have a hard-money man from the East and a soft-moncy man from the West. Tilden turns East; Hendricks turns West. Hendricks say “Jiepcal the Resumption act.” Tilden says: “Tf you do, It must be understood that it is in ‘the interest of resumption that you repeal it,” —in other words, that it hinders resumption. And so our Democratic friends ~have two men, one facing East, the other | facing,_ West; one declaring fn favor of immediate resumption, the_other declaring in favor of the repeal of the Resumption law, in order that they may catch %x izeons West and catch gudgeons East, and fool enough pe‘:f)la, as they suppose, to get themselves clected to the offices to which they aspire. Inmy judg- ment, and in accordance with the judgment of ane of our leading papers in this i —I refer to the Chicago Zimes—that sort of “ double-faced fraad ? will not go down with the American people. [Cheers and laughter. There Is another thing about this man Tilden. ‘We hear a great deal said—and I think thereisa. great de in this int—and I call jthe attentfon of the people toit because I have to before—there Is a great deal of trouble, 88 you know, over the country in reference to the BUILDING OF RAILEOADS, to their construction, to their running, to the don't undertake to_quote ft—a na- [, 0 T expenses, and to the cost to the peaple, please. Now what is the secret. o that! 1 S you ove of thediflicalties which has brought all those troubles upon this conntry. Ongof the difliculties is, that there is a class of rich men in New York, who sit there and run tho stocks down 1nd up, erowd the small stockhold- ers out of their rights, and are constautly changing, pressing upon those poor railroads ity the “West, which are in the hands of honest men generally, o far as their ranning. is concerned. These rich men at New York. with the man Tilden at their very head, are con stantly manipulating those raiiroads, and the stocks belonging to them, so that the peaple ut the West—the railroad men and the pla generally_are sultering on. account. of thete controlling the railr which belong to the people of the West. TIERE 13 ANOTHER POINT 1 want to make agninst the Democratic candt- date for President, and it is this: We have hoard a t deal said since Tilden wastalked of for President, or at least about the time he was to Ve nominated about his connection with the penco resolution that was passed by the Democratic Na- tional Convention held right here in yoar city in 1864. That ce resolation was ‘bad enongh, there fs no doubt abont that, and ns distingnished gentleman, who had been a’ Liberal and Indepen- dent four years ago, and was a supporter of Greo- ley, eald, "**if theg cxpect that a Union. soldier, | who fought to snppress the Rebellion, can give hi3 #upport to 2 man who is respansible to_any degreo for that peace resolution, they are very much mis- taken, ~ (Cheers,] ! ‘That fs what enc distinguished gentleman’ said, ' and that Is what the great mass of the independent ' roldiers who put down this Rebellion are saying to-day, who have herctofore, many of them, not been satisfled with their connection with the Re- publican party. [Applomec.] = But there is another point that T desire to make in reference to this action of this man Tilden. Ev- erybody understands he was on the committes that reported ‘THAT PEACE RESOLUTION. What clse do we know abont that? Why, we understand further—Manton Marble did ft—that certificates were telegraphed to the Springfield State Convention In order to zain the support of the Convention—of the delesntes—in the Natlonal Convention, that notwithstanding Tilden was on that Committce that reported the revolation, yet | he was really agninet it, and that he went to Mc- Clellan, after he wos nominated, and told him that he must not ‘pay any attention to the resolution. ‘What else, did he do? = Notwithstanding he aid ! ihat, he goes before the coustry in suppor ! of McClellan and in support of the Democratio Pln!furm. ‘with that peace resolution in it. Now say, my {riends, that while being fn favor of that peace resolution was about bad cnongh—I say it was bad enough—yet it was worse for a man who #ets himself up a8 a worthy man to be President of the United States to double-deal with the Ameri- can pca&lc upon so vital a question, in ng to the world outside that e is for a thing and in say- ing to McClellan that he Is agaiost it, and in_mak- Ing an arrangement, 8o far a3 he wad gtle with the candidate, that, in case he was clected by the peo- Jle, that be shotli poy 2o rezard to the resolation. gay if any thing is worse than that in the way of treachery to his own people, to the Demacrats s wellus 10 the American people generally, T don't know what it is. A man to be fit to be Presi- dent onght st least o play falr—lo exercise faith towards the people—and if he is for a thing, to eay it. and if he is aguinst it to say so, that they may understang how he stands upon the question, Iray, sirs, that the people of this country onghd not to trust the man who wonld say to the publio one thing, and secretly make an arrangement twith the candidate upon Another basis, thereby under- taking to deccive them in_their support of thad c?nr{klntc, in case the candidate should have been electe But, my friends, T shall not talk to youany longs er. 3y fnend Storra is here and will make yon @ splendid speech, os he always does [applaase], and I shall give way to him with ¢imply remarking that We are entering upona campaign franght with great interest {0 the American people.
