In point of numbers, the mass meeting last night in front of the City Hall, ratifying the Bominations of Grant and Colfax as the stan- @ard-bearers of the Republican party in the Bpproa. ang Presidential election, was quite a cess. Notwithstanding the ‘steady rain b prevailed, & large crowd assembled at mn early hour, which Was increased to upwards ef Sve oF ix thousand (about four-tifths of om were colored) before the proceedings got lly under way. Seats on the platform were provided ‘or the Committee of Arrangements, speakers, members of the press, officers of the Giflerent ward associations, &c In fron: of the Stand were arranged a series of gas jets, whi illuminated the space for some discance brilliant manner. In the center of these jets was a bandsome fiery star, of considerable dimensions, which presented a beautiful effect. Baoners and transpareucies were also ar- Tanged on the platform, and tacked on the boarded frame in front were the words id Coltax,” painted in large canvass. Several of the ward clubs to the grounds 1n procession, bearing “Grant. ' Colfax, and Bowen. Sayles J. Bower, the man who canfsay “yes or RO, to fr oF foe, as his sense of duty prompts "418 majority, 1567, 500, June, ite.” lity before the Law: “In the we demand all our tion.” “School our Children,” “More Light; Less Mud,” --Free spec ch, free presses, and free ” “Justice and Freedom;” “Bound to ree schools, free government. free me for all and all for each:” “Sayles y M, OUT OUIY choice; Seveuth Ward will ive 600 majority.” Heald’s Band occupied seats on the stand, and at intervals discoursed & choice selectior. of music. 8% O'clock Major Morse called the meet- to order, and, on his motion, Mr. Z. Rich- | ards. of the Board of Aldermen, was chosen ebairman. Mr. Richards, in acknowledging compliment, said that owing to the inclem- ency of the weather, the meeting could not be considered a ratification of the nomination of Grant and Coltax for the Presidency and Vice Presidency, but that on another occasion this Fand event would be honored. There was an portant work to be considered in this city on Monday next in the election of a Mayor. The question was not who is the best man, Qtr Bowen or Mr. Given.) but who is the t man for Mayor. Both of them were good men, but Mr. Given was under bad intlueuces, while Mr. Bewen possessed influence with Congress and was allied with that power which could advance the interest and prosper- ity of our community. General E. ©. Carrington was introduced and addressed the meetmg upon the politics of the day. In the Democratic party of the country he recognized the old rebel element, Which only needed the opportunity to break | forth in tresson again. He urged the import. | ance of success both at the Mayoralty election | =i '¥, aud the Presidential election next The next speaker was Senator Wilson, ot | Massachusetts, who came before them. he said, to commit himself to the great party of the | ceountry and its distinguis! leaders. The | ‘Chicago Couvention had presented to the people | ‘aman for Presicert, who had become one of the most distinguished men of any age or | nation, and in repiy to the question which had | deen made whether General Grant was fit to become President, be bad only toask was the 'y Worthy of Bim. He predicted that the Qepauiican ticket would be triumphant in thirty States out of the thirty-seven. Monday next, he said, the work should be begun in this city ig the election of Mr. Bowen as Mayor. The Republican party of this city should do its whole duty in ‘the toming municipal | election, and be exhorted the patriotic colored | masses to remember who it was that gave them | liberty, and show their gratitude accordingly. | Hon. Lewis Barker, of Maine. was next im- | troduced, and made a speech replete with wit and bumor. and interspersed with anecdotes | amd quotations, which elicited frequent Sp. | Plause. He bad heard, he said, that Washing- ton wasa Democratic city, but hoped that such Was not the esse. If such be the case; if the banner of Democracy aud trrasou floats over this city, in Gods name wipe out the disgrace on Monday next by the election ofthe Republi- | can ticket. The election of Sayles J. Bowen, he thought. would be a power of influence for good throughout the country: but shonld he be defeated, the injury might prove incalculable | im the great contest to come. Mr. Barker enlogized the Chicago nominees and pledged | the State of Maine to their support. James F. Harris, colored.) ot North Usro- lina, followed Mr. Barker upon the rise aud Pprogtess of the Republican part he coun. | try, the history of the late war, and the great unanimity on the part of the colored people | oof the South in favor of the Republican party. | ‘There were 7,000 loyal blacks of the South who | ‘would support at the coming election in No- | vember the Chicngo nominers. The speaker | said himself aud President Johnson were | so far as birth place is concerned: but that he blused for the connection. Mr. Van Horn, of New York, was the next speaker, and urged the election of the Republi- ean ticket in this city on Menday next, if the community expect any favors from the National Congress. Col. Richard Hinton, ot Kansas, closed the meetng with encouraging remarks, and exhort- ed the Republicans of this city to do their duty on Monday next, im the election of Mr. Bowen. Do this, and Washington would prosper: be- fides, the couniry would be benefitted thereby, im the increased majority which would in con- sequence be reorived by Grant and Colfax at the ensuing Presidential election. The crowd became +o great during the pro- ress of the speech that meetings were organ- zed at the west wing of the City Hall and at the corner of 6th and D streets, at which Speeches were made. At 22 o'clock the meeting adjourned, when the ward clubs formed im procession, and, marching to their respective rendezvous, were dysmissed. ——_e—___ ~ ALLEGED FRaUpULEyT ReoisTey.—Yesver- day. Michael T. Colli was arrested on Wednesday, om the charge of attempting to register illegally, was before Justice D. R. ‘Smith, at police beadquarters—Mr. N. H. Blil- ler appesting for the prosecution, and A. Lioyd, Esq., for the defence. Dir. Miller asked a post- Ponement of the ease. but the Justice refused this motion, and the testimony of the wit- messes present was taken, to the effect that Collips applied to the Board of Registration to Be registered. One of the challengers. Uronin by name, objected tb his being registered upon the grounds that. during the war, he claimed exemption from the draft by reason of being @ Britisn subject. The judges accordingly re- fused to ter him at that time, but held bis case under advisement. After consultation. | the judges decided to register him, by reason of | his baving deciared bis intentions within the | Inst three years to become a citizen. and having | procured the necessary papers to enable him | to do so, (Collius was provided at the time with Dis naturalization papers.) In the mean. | time, Cleary went before a magistrate and made oath, which procured the warrant men- | tioned above. Alter bearing the evidence. the Justice decided to hoid the accused for s fur- ther hearing on next Wednesday evening. ——_-—— THE Larceyy or a Deap Hr D.—Yes- | terday afternoon the colored woman, Rachel Ardetson, a notice of whose complaint at the Police Headquarters sgainst Caroline Lee, alias Andegson, for the larceny of ber dead husband, was published in the Stax yesterday, applied to Mr. A. K. Browne for advice, and Opa search of the marriage record at the City Hall being made, Rachel was found to bave married Anderson nineteen ye: the other woman dated berm: © to last January only. Justice Smith was applied to and he issued a warrant against Caroline Lee, charging her with -feloniously stealing and | y the body of Charles Anderson from the premises of Rachel Anderson, in Naylor's alley. between N and O streets and 9th and 10th ‘streets, valued at $500.” On this ‘warraut Officer J. V. Grant arrested C: and she had a hearing before Justice Smith— Mr. Browne and Mr. C. Walker sppearing for the prosecution—and after hearing the case the body was ordered to be ret urned to Rachel An- derson. ‘The case against the womaa Caroline was dismissed last evening. Oificer Grant super. imtended the removal of the body to Rachels house, where a large number of colored per- sons were gathered, and there was much ex- ettement over the affair. ——— Sows ov Joxapas.—Last evening the Grand Council, with members of No. i Council of to Stott’ GRANT AND cOLFaX. ey Last evening, the Committee appointed by the National Union Republican Convention to Rotity General Grant and Speaker Colfax of their nominations the Qonvention, per- formed that gery at ihe residence of General Grant, on I street. The committee assemoled at Willards’ Hotel, and proceeded thence to the rm lence of the General, where there were assembied a mumober of distinguished per- sons, among whom were several members of Congress, the families of General Grant and Speaker Colfax, General Grant's staf, aad others. Upon arriving at the residence of Gen. Grant the company were shown into the large par- lors, where Gov. Hawley addressed General Grant, saying they had been appo.nted by the Con vention to wait on Bimand give hica a copy of the record of its proceedings. Speaking of t= Convention he said: “You will perceive that it ‘was governed by the most patriotic motives— harmonious, enthustastic, and determined. We mean, in your own words, to “save in peace what we won in war.” General Hawley pro- ceeded to speakat some length of their confi- dence in General Grant as a leader, and con- cluded by sayiug: “The records of the war and of your subsequent fidelity, afford the evi- dence, that the nation can safely and wisely piace you in the chair of Washington aad Lin- In behalf of the Convention we tender mination for President, and solicit its acceptance. We can give you no higher proof of our gratitude for your past or onr confidence in your future, We propose to elect you.” After the applause with which the above speech was received ceased, Gen. @rantreplied follows: Mr. President and Gentlemen of the Union Convention: I will endeavor, it short time, to write you a letter accepting the trust you have imposed upon me. [Appluse.} Expressing my gratitude for the confidence you bave placed in me, I will now say but lit. He orally, and that is to thank you for the unanimity with which yon have selected me Ss a candidate for the Presidential office. Tecan say. in addition, I looked on during the pro- gress of the ings at Chicago with a great deal of interest, and am gratified with the harmony and unanimity which seem to have govertied the deliberations of the Con- vention. If chosem to fill the Ay office tor which you have selected me, I will give to its duties the sume energy. the same spirit and the same will that I bave gtven to the performance of all duties which Rave devolved upon me heretofore. Whether I shall be atle to per- form these duties to your entire satisfaction time will determine. You have truly said. in the course ot your address, that I shall have no policy ot my own to interfere against the will of the people. As the General concluded his speech there was long continued applause. Gen. Hawley then addressed Speaker Col- fax. saying: «You bave heard oar declaration | of principies at Chicago, and therefore I need not repeat it. Yon are aware that numerous candidates for the Vice Presidency were pre- sented. They were all loved and respected, | and your selection was brought about by the good-will and triendship entertained for your- self. You are known tothe American people by fourteen years of public service. We know you come trom the people, and without false pivtences You are iaithful to principle. “The Jonvention tenders you the nomination of- Vice President, agd asks your acceptance.” (Applause ‘o this Mr. Colfax replied: Mr. President Hayley ani genlemen: History has already proclaimed that the victories of the party you represent. during the recent war, al- Ways gave increased and confidence to the nation: while its reverses and defeats ever increased the national peril. It is no light tribute, therefore. to the millious of Repub. licans im the forty-two States and Territories Tepresented tn the Chicago Convention, that our organization has been so inseparably inter- Woven with the best interests of the Republic; that the triumphs and reverses of the one have been the triumphs and reverses of the other.
