Among those most worthy note were the foliowing : “Certain ic States are very uncertain.” Un the reverse, “ One thing is certain, Breckin- ridge cannot be elected.*” “The old men’s arithmetic is ‘two-thirds of 302 is 105.""* “« The Union must be preserved.’ On the re- verse, ‘The beil (a figure of a bell) that toils the death kne!l of disunion.’* May the tongue of him that talks disunion cling to his mouth.” “ *t meddle in family quarrels.”’ “In Unton there is strength”? ‘Your yellow kivers.” (Representation of official envelope colored yellow.) “« Breckinridge wouldn’t have any yellow ‘kiv- ers” “The North and the South.” (Two hands firmly cl ) “ The Constitution and the Laws’ (A large eagle with a bell suspended from its mouth.) “The Union; nothing but treason can dissolve “Silence is-dreadful;’’ bell in the position of deing rung ; “* Applause follows merit where-Ever-et goes.”” ~* Remember Mount Vernon." “* Tennessee marble."’ “* Massechuse ts granite.”’ “ North, South, East and West; we go for all.’ +* We intend to keep ont of all family quarrels.”” “Kentucky 10,000 fur Coombs.” “True for Bell.” “Our country. distinct as the billows; one as the sea.” * Jack, the giant killer.’ Representation of a tel ** North Carolina true for Bell and Everett.’ “Protect American industry.’ (Man at the sledge hammer ) “ Bell and Everett; no mistaking them.” “ Let the bell (figure) ring.” * Virginia for the Union.” “ Everett gives us the Tomb of Washington.” “A vote he Breckinridge is a vote for Lin- cola’ “The Union the engine of strength.”* “I bave and sball always do my duty to my country.”—Bell. “ Kentucky will cleave to the Constitution.” ‘* The patriots of °76; we feel their spirit and will perpetuate their work.” ‘* We love our country and revere its free insti- tutions *? “« Our Bell (figure) is of the true metal.’ “ We want au incorruptible record.”’ “« We want no President stump speakers.” « The dignity of the office must be ved.”? “ The cheering tones of the Union bell all tones of disunion quickly quell.” =quality of the States.” “The South is wheeling into line ** “ Mount Vernon speaks for Everett.”’ ur platform is our country.’ he Constitution, the laws,and Washington’s Farewell Address.” ** The ladies are all unionists.”’ In addition to this ordinary display, there was a rather novel and striking feature in the proces- sion, which astonished and amused all who were witnesses of it. This was the incessant ringing and jingling of bells of all descriptions, shapes, aud s:zes, which caused such a medley of sound as to almost deafen those who chanced to be very near. These bells consisted of huge fire alarm veils, placed on four-wheeled carriages yally adorned, church bells, breakfast belis, dinner bells, supper bells, auctioneer’s bells, door belis, hotel bells, little bells, middle-sized bells, big bells, cow bells, ox belis, panorama bells, theater bells, steamboat bells, twelve o'clock belis, six- o'clock bells, rise-early bells, Swiss ‘bell ringers’ belis, lost-chiid belis, and sweet-toned, animated belles, which, however, were not in the procession aud jingled only occasionally, and then as in a merry laugh, at the mingled uproer created by the other bells. The number of torches in the procession was very large and brilliantly illuminated the line of march. In this way the long and lambenat pro- cession moved along amid the continued cheering of the crowds which completely blockaded either side of the avenue, and the waving of bandker- chiefs by the ladies. On arriving at the City Hall they found an immense gatbering already assem- bled. It ts stated by some of our oldest citizens, who witnessed the spectacle last evening, that it was decidedly one of the largest and most.enthu- siastic effairs of the kind they had ever beheld in Washington. In the square, between the two wings, a sub- stantial ¢ had been erected, gaily decorated with fla; nners, &c., above all of which, was Spread a strip of white canvass bearing the inscrip- tion: “ The Union, the Constitution, and the en- forcement f the laws.’’ The stage was brilliantly illuminated with gas, issuing from jets sitixed to pipe, which was arranged in a semi-circular shape the entire length of the stage. A giass globe was placed around each of these t! ety ‘hts, upon which was inscribed in flinted c' the names of the various States The arrival of the procession was hailed with three hearty cheers, which made the welken ring for squares around. At about nine o’clock the meeting was called ty erder by Benjamiu Ogie Tayloe, » Presi- dent of the Bell and Everett Clab, and doing this Mr. Tayloe expressed the gratification he felt at greeting so large an assemblage on so interest- ing an occasion, to ratify the nomination of two citizens and patriots every way worthy of the high laces with which their names are con e would call upon one, the friend and intimate of Mr. Clay, and who was with him during his last iliness, to preside over the meeting; he re- ferred to Philip R. Fendall, Esq. Mr Fendall, in acknowledging this honor, spoke a few min- nites, sketching, with brevity but great acceptance, the political elrcumstances of the past ten years and the present time. In it be referred to the dis- ruption of the Missourl compromise by the De- mocracy, and the dissension and turmoil which had ensued, just as jicted by Mr. Bell, Mr. Everett, and other inguished statesmen. He also referred to the devotion of Mr. Clay to the fm ag onc i. yoo mie of and his hi com, se patan these hopes had frustrated, and all the trou- bles Mr Clay sought to render again impossible, kad, through Democratic Se come round once more.

These speeches were all able and eloquent; abounding with sentiments of loyalty to the Union, and death to disunion. Weare sorry that want of space prevents us from giving even a synopsis of them boatey? £2 During the address of Mr. Scott the delegation from Alexandria appeared in sight, with Stephen Shinn, oe » Of that city, at their head. So large was this delegation, and so numerous were the transparencies belonging to it, that it took about @ quarter of an hour to march them Jn to their Cpe atthe meeting. Three cheers were given the gallant Alexandrians for their imposing demonstration. Among their transparencies were the following Mottoes First Ward Union Club, Alexandria—‘-Squatter Sovereignty can’t ring in”? ‘* The Union forever.”’ = ah legs us the Tomb of Washington.” Second Ward— Democracy is Dis-Union.”’ An eagle with the motto, “United we siand, divided we fall” “The Constitation, the Union, and the Laws”? “No North, no South, no East, no West.” “A vote for Breckinridge is a vote for Lincoln.” First Ward—Beil surmounted by an eagle “The Great Union Bell.” “* Virginta for the Union.”’ “* Our Platform is our Country.” ‘© Mount Vernon speaks for E'verett ” : “Tunnel Town O.

They left at midnizht. reaching home next morning, and they both insisted that the meteor * pi y by a series of jerks, and that all those down there saw itte beso.

It was long within the e of vis.on. Cruxtry To a Wirs.—Yesterday evening, Officer Gill arrested Henry Buete for cruelly beat- ing his wife, and carried him before Justice Cooper, of the Seventh Ward. Her appearance alone was sufficient to excite the anger of men of fine feelings who were present at the time. Her face and neck were bruised and battered, and ber right eye was completely closed, and ithe flesh black and swollen. Her pains were so severe that she fainted In the a oS office before the case was concinded. These facts, and her state- ment of her difficulties, and the recollection of the case before Justice Donn a few months since | tobe out of the arrest of the fernale who Mrs. juete bi as the cause of her clistress, ra- vated the excited men, who wouid if asks poe willingly have dis of the case according to their views of justice, without regard to the lex seripta. Justice Cooper himself, no doubt, felt so inclined, but his duty compelled him toa strict observance of the law. He required Buete to give bail for court, and there were persons who were ready to offer themselves as his security; but the Justice the case as one that requires the best security, and rejecting every offer that ex- Bipited the least doubt, he committed Buete to jail.
