Healey presided. iN The Ton. John Wentworth was the fret epeaker. He eaid tt waa forty-two years this spring since ho began addressing hfs fellow-cit- vent, and he thought he ought to have mado a pretty good impression by this time. The North Bide fn olden days used to be considered the battle-ground. Its appearance had changed, as had individuals, but not principles; and recent eventa ot Washington hai brought to view those very principles witch were contended foras early ns 1857.

The public tnen looked upun polities a” having somuthing {u it—were on the make. What wos needed were stalwart men—men who would call erltne erlme, aud trenson trenson. {Ap- plause.] ‘Tho Brigadiers proposed to starve us into thelr control. They could do nothing with- out the ald of Northorn men. ‘The Soathern traltora were In the minority, and ft was only necessary for Northern men to stand up to keop them there. [Applaure.] Men In the North who. Wanted power und couldn't got it, they turned to the South and became donghtaces. And when the South wanted any dirty work done, » they turned to a Northern Democrat to origi- nato ft. [Applause] Referring to the potiey of Wresident Hayes, Mr. Wentworth sald he came into power too late ii Ife. He ourhe to have been in the Chalr when Sumner was atruck down and Giddings nesassinated. LHe would be able to appreciate the present crisis if he knew the Southern men well. ‘They proposed to make all thy constitutional amendments dead-lettors by legislation which would defeat their enforce- nient, As to the bearing of this on the muniel- al election, he sald that bustuesy men should e put Into all executive officer, If politiclang were given the places, they were always looking for promotion. Take IHat- vison; he might want to. be Governor or Ben ater, aud he would appoint protessional ofllce- scokers aud men who would stick to him in the conventions. Ifo would shut off all other sapir- auta,—Fuller, Goudy, and Tom Iioyne. Look- ing only for hls own advancement, what would in the meantime become of the Interesta of the dity? ‘There bad not been a political Mayor tnee Tom Dyer, nnd the speaker did not believe the people of Chicago were prepared to ignore their best Interests by supporting a mere poll- ticlau for that office. ‘The condition of the coun- try was adverted to, und Mr. Wentworth said we must either fleh or cut bait. Somebody had to surrender. Wo wero not fighting the Southern Rebele, but. the - Northern ; traitors. ‘The South had no. traitors: Shes hung thent | All our troubles had been brought about by Northern men, who played into the handeof the Routh for the express purpose of securing pat- ronage, Speaking of the effect of the election of Harrison, Mr. Wentworth snid when our Congrvssinen earned of It he didn’t know what they would do, lc hoped Mr. Hayes would conclude that ho had dilly-datiled long enough with the.

[Applause.] ‘The Republican tieket hadn't a man on ft who had over held an ollie. If the people wanted a politiclan, should they not take one whose feclings were in unison with those who belleved tn preserving the Union? | Mr Harrison had always yated with the disloyal ele- ment fn Congress. It he were “latd out,” the country would bo guved a deal of troutite, Re- publicans everywhere would be encoura! and the disloyallsts would be shown that the soldter and business elements of the North were wide awake, and that they must not show thelr heads again, [Applause.) ‘The first “gun would ba fred ‘Tuceday to put down the sevond appear- ance of treason’s head, to prevent the pension- ing of Rebel soldiers, to provent the payment of Rebel claims, to prevent ourselves from being Ulegraced and dishonored because wo fought for the fing. [Applaued.] ME. WRIGHT, the next Mayor of Chicago, was then introduced. Heo referred to the fact, sucwested by the band's blaying the Star-Spangled Banner, that the flag did nut wave over this entire country. A Demo: erat, lately returned from the South, where he Witnessed‘a milftiy review, had stated that there Wasa cousvictious apsence of United States Naga, aud he was told that they didn't float there, Jt hud beon sald that tle Democratic party Was not o party of principles. It had, however, eminclated a principle,—that Congrass Inight nullify the provisions of the Constitution, AUMr. Harrison's reception on his return home, the doctrine of State Rights wos announces that Congresstnen were merely State officers, ‘The speaker thought that. tid been buried by the result of the Rebellion, Mr. Harrison Waa put forward to teat the sentiment of the North as to the course of the Southern Briga- ers, Mr, Harrisov must conform bls private Judgment, whatever it might be, to the dictates of the enucus, With a Democrat, party was first and country afterwordw; with a Republic. ancountry first aud party second. [Applause.] A tan who served his catntry best served his arty best. As to individuals, who should be Mayor was nothing, ‘The question “was, what Was the seutiment of the people?

A ROUSING REPUDLICAN NEBTING was held last evening in the Folly Theatre, on Desplaines street, Mr, R. W. Dyball presided, and the ttle Theatre was crowded to {ts ut- most capacity. Col, Rieaby was the firet speaker, He showed the Importance of the pending municipal eleetion, und said that there waa more to it than stinply the election. of a Mayor. Mr. Harrison represented the sinon- pura Secessfonist Democracy and nothing else. ‘There was vot a Unton soldier who fought in tho inst War who would swallow such a uomina- tion, The loyal people. of the North would never let the Solid South rulo - this country. The men who were defeated at ftchmond in 1865 tad captured Washington in 1879, and all they wanted was the Confeder- ate flag to waya above the Capitol. ‘The spenk- cr thanked God for such true Republicans as Senator Chandler, of Michigan, COL.

The Republican party had a record ng the friend of the worklngman, while all the Democrats could claim: was. that they had mando constant efforts to subjugate labor. The Confederates had already captured both Houses of Congress and were striking for the White-House. Cartor Tfnrrlson was afraid to opnose the Southern Brigadiers when they voted to repeal the Elec- tion Inws, nnd to admit all manner of frauds {nto elections, “The speaker thought it foul shame that half the South should be distran- chised by the Mississippi plan, und declared that if the Confederates had thelr way free specch would be at an end even in the North. He bad not favored the election of Mr. Hayes, but wanted J, G, Blaine, of Mune, believing that he had backbone enough to stand up and defy the Southern Democracy, But hehoped Mr. Hayes would continiie to ¥eto every Rebel mensure passed by the Democratic Congress, ‘Threa States had sent stulwarts" to the Senate in the persona of Logan, Carpenter, and Chandler, and he hoped that Chicago would never stultlfy ftself by choosing Carter arrlson for its Mayor. MN, 11.188, of the Third Ward, reviewed tho Issucs of the campalin at some length, his speech being con- flued almost entirely to nationat questions. Ho showed up the rotten record of the Demovratle and Rebel parties, and pronounced Carter Har- rigon one of the same stripe. TUE NON, LUCHER DL. MILLS. met with an onthuslastic reception.

The Hepubiiean varty was bora of the necessities of advancing civilization, aud had nobly portermed its work of freeing the op- pressed and saving the Union, ‘The South, al- ways sectional, refused, in 1880, to bow to ‘the will of the people, and it was thé game now as then, It was then that the Reoublean party saved the nation aud preserved the unity of the Republic. ‘They thought they had conquered, peace, and held out the hand of forgiyencas to thelr erring brethren, ‘Then when honest, patriotle men spoke of the deeds of the War they wero taunted with the ery of “Blood: Shirt!'
