Good night. THE EPILGGUE. A WIIRLIWIND OF ENTHOUSIASM. As Col. Ingersoll retired, the audience shonted for more. They were insatiate. In- stead of scrambling for the door, they mounted the seats and gave round after round of cheers. Ilats and handkerchicfs waved. From the gallerfes, from the Toof, from the girders, from way out on the stringer, came shouts for the orator, and demands tnat he continue. The Colonel bowed and shook his head, and then the multitade clamored for music. The Glee Ciub came forward, and repeated * Old Shady.” Still the audience refused to move. Lumbard repeated the army hymn, the audience joining in the chorus, and it was only when the an- nouncement was made that there would be no more speeches that the oeople could be induced to depart. As they made their wayslowly from the building, the torchlizht protession was moving south on the avenue,and the music of the band was drowned by the plaudits of the crowd that filled the wide street. 3 Col. In)ilema!! had said the meeting was the grandest he had ever scen on the carth 1t was the most cnthusiastic that cver characterized a campaign. In the history of politics there never has been such a gathering to hear a man expound the principles of a party. It was not a mass-meeting, yet it swelled to proportions that but few mass-meetings have ever attpined. It was a convocation of human beings, who came in thousands to listen to the viewsof a respected: orator, and who departed in a whirl- wind of cheers for the principles he advocated. THE PROCESSION. A GRAND DISPLAY. Chicago has witnessed several processions in times past, but few, if any, have equaled that of last night in extent, variety, and appearance. 1t wasa magnificent spectacle,—the almost lim- itless lines of torches and transparencies moving restlessly along the street,—and scarcely less imposing was the vast throng of lookers-on that lined the sidewalks from one end of the route to the other. There were in round numbers 10,000 men in the procession, most of them bearing torches. Republicanism never made a plainer showing of its power., Democracy never felt its weakness so plainly as when gazing upon this mighty host of enrncst men. In all the campaign there bas not been a grander demonstration. The parade of itself would have been an event of extraor- dinary interest, even if there had not been a mass-meeting of unprecedented character and importance. Early in the evening peoplein the western part of.the city began to gather at therendez- yous, corner of Sangamon and Washington streets. Somehow everybody supposed that the procession would start at about sunset and march until daybreak, not taking into consider- ation the fact that large bodies move slowly, and that to organize ana arrange such a vast number of men would require time and trouble. The corapanies, coming trom all quarters of the ‘West Side, were more or less tardy in arriving, so that it was 9 o'clock before the second division 'WAS FAIRLY STARTED. Brig.-Gen. Lyman Bridges, who had command of the outdvor demonstration, made his head- quarters corper of Sangamon and Washington streets, where he was surrounded by his staff and a vast crowd of people, as well as a - large number of small urchins, who will always gath- er on such ocessious. To the right of Gen. Bridges,corner of Madison and Sangamon streets, were stationcd the Stock-Yards’ Lancers, on horseback, a company .numbering forty-five :;e'i" nearly all oé ‘whom were tgx:d owners of eir cquines, and were comman by Capt.
