Hig fate reminds us of the tragic fateot Beethoven, who actually became denf, and in Consequence thereof morose and melancholy.” The Milwaukee Germania (Ind) writes the fol-': lowing in the Democratic album: “That the. Democratic party {s totally devoid of all decen- eyand principles, it- again gloriously dem- onstrated a few days ago in its Now Jerscy State Convention. This Convei.tion, which, by the way, surpassed anything of the sort ever con- gregated in tumultuous disorder and noise, adopted the following resolution: ‘The platform of the Democratic National Convention meets our hearty approval (including, of course, the declaration in favor of * tariff fur revenue only"). At the heels of this resolution avother was in-- ‘troduced and ndopted, which reads as follows: ‘The Democratic party of thisState desires such & tariff as will best protect our home industries.’ We are at a loss to Suy which desorves the most condemnation, the hopeless political depravity or the unlimited impudence of these Democratic mountebunks, who, with two such onntra- dicting, declarations, appear before the people asking ‘for ‘their support by indorsing a pro- téctive tariff and tariff for revenue only, in the same’ breath. ‘This ‘surpasses even those unso- phisticated revolutionists in the rural districts of Hesse Darmstadt, who, in 1818, exclaimed: *We demand ‘a Republic, but the Grand Duke must stay! - . The Cincinnati Frete Presse writes the follow- ing: ‘The sudden decline in the value of our Government and railroad bonds immediately after the elevtion newe from Maine reached tne New York money markot should warn ourlabor-- ing, business, and industrial men, and open their eyes to the great dangers which a victory of ‘the Demoorats and Greenbackers would actually force upon'the country. The confidence which now prevails among all bus{ness-men and in all branches of our industries, would be shaken to its.very foundation; manvfacturers would de- | sist. from expanding: their business and muxnufacture ter immediate demand only; our present business prosperity would ¢x~ perlence:a severe shock, aud thousands upon thousands of industrious and hard-working laborers would be thrown sat of empleyment, Misery and want would again prevail among all Jaboring clusses. In short,—in place of our present general prosperity we would be doomed again to the business and financial distress the country had to undergo during the years from 1873 to 1878. [s there nny sane man. who would knowingly contribute towards a return of those durk yeurs? Is there any.gensible man who cares for his own welfare, and who hag but'a spark of Nationa! pride left in bis beart, base enough to wish for this return of misery, want and sullen. dissatisfaction among the laboring classes? Who thea, we a."t, can under such cir- cumstances be so depraved as to assist those clements to victory whoss success in.the com- ing election is tantamount toa return of a new crisis in our political and economic existence?” es The New York Zeitung contains a pleasant ae in reference tothe Jewish and’ Gentile hogs of the so-called Independent German- American Citizens" Association of New York. Police-Judge Otterbourg and Coroner Ellinger represent the Jews and Mr.-Nehrbas stands at the head of the Gentiles. The Zeitung writes az fullows: ‘Since the. split in- the’ Independent (@emocratjo) German-American Citizens’ Asso- ciation of New York, there exists a deep-scated hatred between the two factions. If an Eilinger- Otterbourgian r-7s against a Nebrbasian, wild wrath immediately hus the upper hand, and a fight wonld be unavoidable if the former be- longed to the ecclesia militans. For years they had dickered and intrigued, trafficked and huck- stered in pence and harmony among themselves, and the greatspirit woo moved over them in Tyrou Row (New York Staats-Zeitung) bad pro~ cured to their pleasure and delight menor offices, em all. But great’ and smull, for’ " when ‘it occurred’ one ‘day (as ft will cccasionally bappen among good _busi- men) that they take un inventory of their gack, ut was found that Nebrbas and his Young Men's Christian Association were compuratively empty-handed and the Ellinger-Otterbourgians and their Mesopotamian follawers had captured all the fattest ana sweetest sausages. This caused great ire and wrath in the hearts of the Nehrbasiuns.: They concluded to clear their ranks- of cireumcised Democracy and set up business for them:elves alone. Now, Otterbourg and Ellinger are two good fellows, but they are nut Christian young wen. Atter our great Judge and our learned Corouer sball rest in peace in Abrabam’s bos (muy they livea bundred yexrs, multiply, be heulthy, and bold office), it will not be necessary for a jury to de- cide, as it happened a few days ago in Hoboken, in whut graveyard they shall be buried. Thus itcame to pass that th sand their followers were put our into the cold by the Nebrbasian clique. But with their inate energy they imme~ diately organized another establishment under nearly the same name as that of the Nebrbasian institution, and declared with their well-known modesty that they were the simon-pure aud the oniy reform Jacob. The Nehrbasians mude the saine claims and as- sertions, When Nehbrbas and his young Caris- thins were invited to participate in the Nillson Hl Democratic meeting, ho indignantly ae- cuned, saying‘ Where an £llinger-Otterbourgian blows the *Shofur.” a Nehrbas cannot play the organ’! Afew days ago the Nebrbas(ans ar- ranged a Hancock muss-meeting. They even persuaded Belmont to act as Presideut, and Squeezed a check out of his little band for hatl- rentand gas, although Belmont listens to the Shofar on Saturduys, and not to the swect-toned_ organ on Sundays. Everything was arranged beuutifuily, and the Nebrbasiins were swim- ming in a sea of deiight and white cravats. But * there is many a slip between: the cup and tha ip!’ The: Ellinger-Otterbourgians ‘succeeded to demonstrate to the De:nooratic National Comm.ttee that they were the only 8imon-pure reform Jacob, The Committee telegraphed the expected speakers: * Don't come, we are not re- sponsible for”any expenses!’ And so it bap- pened that Joe Pulitzer had to unpack histrun! speech ‘and all, again. He telegraphed the Nehrbasiuns: ‘ Money only makes the mare zo.. No money, no mare, no gol’ And .all the other ‘The Otterbourg-Ellinger wing is quietly laugh- in in its sleeve, and ells all who want to know, ‘We are the only simoa-pure and real reform Jacob, and don’t you forget it!” The Iinots Staats-Zeitung contains the fol- lowing leader in reply to the Anzeiger des Wes- tens: “The Anzciger necd not trouble itself about what we belicve. We positively bellove that the Democratte party after it has obtained full possession of the Executive, Judicial Su- preme Court), and Legislative branches of our Government, will () grant the claims of the South for indemnifications of losses sustained during the War; @) It will appropriate large sums of money forSouthern improvements, such as river, harbor, and levee improvements, con- struction of railroads, and for paying subsidies steamship companies; (@). it will appropriate money for. tho payment all’ laws passed by Congress eaforcing the Thirteenth, Fourteenth, and Fif- teenth “amendments; (§) it will, by its packed Supreme Court, cither declare these constitu- tional amendments null and vold, or leave them standa deud: letter on the statute books for want of iaws to execute and enforce them; (6), it will wipe out the last vestige of the colored men’s right to vote. provided there is any such thing in existence in the South. All of these things we believe, because the history of all Part.e3 teaches us that every political party After itattaings untrammeled control goes far beyond its original platform.

COL. VILAS SPEAKS IN M'CORMICK HALL. The mass-mecting projected by the Chicago Democratic Club to come offat McCormick Hall last evening resulted in that place being fairly well filled, the hull being probably two-thirds full. The meeting was announced to open at 8 o'clock, and some impatience was exhibited by eatly comers at the ‘tardiness of the appear- ance of -the silk-stockings who were. to relieve the platform of its bareness, and Col. Vilas, of Wisconsin, who had been adver-~ tisedias the orator of the evening. Music by the band of ‘the Sixth Regiment somewhat relieved the monotonouscheerlesness of the long wait, and the appearance of a band of some thirty torch-bearers, marshaled by Mike McDonuld and uniformed in waterproof capes improvised for the occasion from ginzed table-cloths, caused aslightattempt at enthuaiastic ebullition, whose full fruition was prevented, however, by the colicky quality of the music produced by tho bagpipes at the hend of the Procession, whose grating discords had a registered power of twenty-five stomachaches to the bar, At about 8:00 the silk-stock.ng gentlemen of the Democ- racy. made their appearance and touk seats upon the wild plundits of the au~ dience, who saw in thelr coming u release from the bagpiner’s persecutions, After all had taken ir Beats, Mr. P. H. Smith, Jr., opened the meeting by announcing that it would be addressed by oue of the greatest orators of the Republic. The the Democratic party in the next few weeks— namely; to show that that party was not as dis- reputable as it was generally credited with be- . The speaker onmed categorically all the virtués of the politica’ calendar, and said that they belonged to the Democratic party: He then introduced Col. Vilas, of Madison, Wis., the audience. ‘Mr. Vilas safd that he was not prepared to offer them anything worthy of their considera- tion, and on that account he asked their consid- eration. There were two ways of appealing toa Democratic audience,—one by speaking com- mon sense, the other by appealing to thelr ions, the latter being ‘the more proht- able of the two. He would, however, confine himself to the former method. In America every man: was equal; any man might enter for the struggle and secure the Prize he wascompetent to win. The President of the United States, equal in rank to the Kings of other lands, and the members of Congress had: no more right to their position than the Consta- ble of a Justice office, though the former posi- tions were the. more important and dignified. [Loud applause from a North Side Constable.) ‘The question to be answered now was: Which are the most impurtant questions at fasue be- tween the two parties? What ure the controlling differences between the two candidates for the Presidency? There was no {issue upon the financial question between them; both parties were in favor of a wise and economical Govern- ment. The Greenback party in this respect was separate from’ both . the others, iand — untagonistio to em, No issue ‘could be drawn upon the financial planks. It was the same with the tariff ques- ton; the Democratic party not having been able to reform this branch of the Government, though, as Rescoe Conkling bad said in his lute speech, they would do it if they got into power. Overshadowing al! these questions was the great issue of sectionalism between the North and the South, and till that great question was disposed of by the destruction of the Hépublican party the business interests of the country must wait. Questions of administration and finance must wait until this is settled. The Republicans claimed that the South was solid. and that this was an offense. If an offense, the Republican party were responsible for it. The unitica~ tion of the South was only that . which will bi to. bear a unitication of the masses of the North in opposition to the Re- Ropes party. After the Union Democrats ad conquered the South they allowed the Union Republicans to reap the spoils, At this time the HAVE BEEN CONCILIATED by allowing them to practice the arts of peace, and doing all that could be done to enable them to recover their lost fortunes and regain the power of self-government, Instead of this the freedmen were made voters aud thus enubled to become the rulers of their late: masters. They were oppressed and misgoverned as no people had ever been before. It had been claimed that the South had drought these calumities upon themselves, but. he believed they still were fit subjects for pity. Under reconstruction the Southern’States became involved in debt, and was it not time when they were given the ballot that they shall use it and attempt to re- deem thelr land by antagonizing the Republican party, which to them seemed to be a party’of plunder and rapine? Having emerged from that rule, these States, after being the scene ff bloodshed and bullaoz- ing.—a word which had been invented to ex- press those deeds,—joined the Democratic party and made it, four years ago, outnumber the Re- publican party as be belleved it would do during Faint applause.) Tho speaker did not believe that the Southern Democrats were seeking to gain agnin that which they bad lost in the late War. Constitu- tional amendments had been adopted by the Nutfon which settled these questions, “and who would be bold enough to go into the House of Congress and offer a resolution tending to cstab- lish slavery or to give the Southern States the right: to secede. [*No!”.“ Nol" from two or three, very faintly.] Nor did he believe that the -Democracy of the North would be governed by that of the South, quoting some figures to sustain his positon on this: point as showing that. the votes for Tilden and Hendricks given by the Northern Demo- crats outnumbered. those given by the States which had seceded. The speuker had no fear of State-rights, for upon the question of the right of States to secede the record of the Democracy was as good a3 thatof the Kepub- lican party. : The speaker claimed that the victorious Northern army was almost eutirely Demoeratic, and quoted Gen. B. F. Butler as saying that five-sixths of the forces which he led belongea to that party. ‘The theory of Southern claims was perfectly exploded by very few considerations. Gen. Hancock had said that he accepted the consti- tutional amendments, and that was enough. All tho Confederate debts were contingent upon the recognition of the Confederacy, and it was not likely that the Northern Democrats would put thelr hands in their kets and pay them. Gen. Garflel bad said this very thing bimuelf, and the speaker stood ready to supply the date of the speech if any one wanted to refer to it. {Several voires— “ Give us the date.”] The speaker guve no heed tothe request, and went on to explain that antagonism begot reorivtination, recrimination led to irritation, irritation to enmity, and enmity to anarchy, 80 that it needed no reference to the history of other lands to see the danger of war which lay in the sectonalism now prevailing. The buainess interests of tho country were pea affected thereby, and for this reason a ‘rieadly relation should be cultivated with 8 Southern people. The Democratic party woul correct this, and (naming some -Cblcnge aie stockings] was not the party embracing suc men ae cieso to be safely intrusted with the country’s commercial interests. A ‘The Speaker reviewed some portions of Sena- tor Conkling's speech, and attempted to prove that where’ the Senator had charged the com- mercial stagnation of the South ‘against its eople, in reality the Almighty was to blame for iL ia ‘a consideration of the personnel of the op- posing candidates the speaker. acknowledged that the candidate of the Republican party was conspicuous for his talents and statesman-like ability, In his criticism of Gardeld, the speaker made use of the usual partlal statements con- ted with Crodit-Mabiligr and back-pay. | -* Aftei ‘ibate to the personal exceliencies Fancock, all present to put their wheel and. put him in the Pres- idential chair as a fitting successor to Jefferson and Jackson. THE CLUBS. THIRD WARD. - = ._A meeting of the inain Republican Club of the ‘Third Ward was held last evening. It was voted to guarantee to the marching clubs of the ward funds ,suficient to equip them with uniforms, ‘torches, ete. It-was ordered that a flag bearing likenesses of Gartleld and Arthur bo hung actoss the street infrontof the hall. Commissioner Purington called for an expression of opinion on the propose increase in the number of poll- ing-places, After avery lengthy discussion it was voted that it was the sense of the Club that the polling-places in the Fourth Ward remain as at present, Br. Jayne, of the “Auxiliary Club, suggested that the Club appoint a commit- tee to meet a committee from the Aux- iliary Club ‘and nominate delegates to be voted for at the county primaries. Mr. Gree- ley, of the main club, ‘sat down heavily on the representation from the west endof the. ward by saying that he did not think the Club should parcel out the nominations with a body of men who had bolted the regular. ticket at the late Congressional primaries. Mr. Clough guicted the litle disturbance by explaining that the Re- publicans of the Third Ward could not afford to Split in the coming contest and allow the enemy to gain a yietory. Anotber long discussion fol- Jowed, and it was finally voted to leave the mat- tor to the primaries and.make no nominations. Another disatfection broke out at this point. Mr. Clough said he desired to resign his position us member of the Finance Com- mittee, but the Club refused, by a vote, to- necept it. Mr. Clough’ arose” and stated that one reason ee he resigned was be- cause n prominent Republican of the ward had offered to give the Club $500if the members would raise: a Hke,amount, and he deamed it an insult. Commissioner Purington then moved a reconsideration of the vote by which the Club refused to accept .the resignation. This. was carried, ag was also a motion to necopt theresiz- nation. This was topped off by a spirited wordy war between Mr. Clough and Mr. A. J. Galloway. Mr. Ira W. Buell was then chosen to succeed Mr. Clough. IN BRIEF.
