INTENSE EXCITEMENT. ‘Strong and Emphatic Speeches and Resolutions, TRE EFFECT OF THE NEWS ELSEWHERE, The greatest porsible excitement existed throughout the city, yesterday, in consrquence of the inhuman treatment of those who were captured at Cuba by the government forces; and in every circle that was the topic of conversation. ‘The call published in the morning papers, for a mess meeting of the citizens, seemed to meet with general ap- probation, and thousands repaired thither to join in the proceedings and give expression to their feelings. Atan early hour in the afternoon, groups of people began togather in the Park to await the time for the general meeting. At five o'clock, the steps of the City ‘Hall were filled, and every avenue in the Park leading to ‘the Hall, was filled with persons A temporary stand was erected late in the afternoon, but “was totally insufficient for the officers of such a meeting, which entirely precluded the possibility of getting @ Good report—no provision whatever having been made for the press. ‘The flag of free Cuba was suspended immediately over the stand from the City Hall, aud the United States dag cested upon the stand. Among those prerent werea lange umber of native Cubsns, who recmed wild with excite- ment, and cheered the Cuban flag as though victory had already been gained over the Spavivrds. At six o’elowk, about four thousand persons had assembled, which num- ber was swollen by the arrival of a procession from the ‘Third ward, preceded by a baxd of music The proves- tion was headed by the stars and stripes, after which ‘were several banners with devices The three principal ones were as follows :— moeooococcoccoo Cosco OODO COCO | GOVERNMENT, rroteer YOUR CITIZENS, Or the People Will! 0060006 ecoo0ce moeoccococcocecceo sooo oo OOO Fs |} woococooooe oc OOS COC OC OOO OS OF - THE BLOOD OF Me ° 50 AMERICANS ° ° ° ° cnixs ror ° o 7 ° .

When Mr. Carr concluded, Captain Ryworns was called upon toaddress the meeting. He commenced by ssying that the prerent occasion reminded him of a meeting which took place on the same spot s few years ago, when the people of New York assembled, without dis tinction of party, to take action in relation to the Mexi- can war, We recollect, said he, that the Spaniards and Mesicans of that day committed outrages against the pecple of the Upited States, although not half so barba- rous as those which have been committed recently in Cubs. Andi it you, said he, to remember, that on that cecasion, as on this,some of the press of the city of New York applauded the Mexicans, even to the echo, for their atrocious deeds at that time, (Groans) [ trust, fellow citivens, that you have not forgotten these outra- to which I refer, and that what we have this day ‘ard of will never escape your me: On this occa tion it is with ¢iffeulty I can cont the indignation which I feel [ speak to with mingled sen- timents of indignation contempt. A coun- try that holds a civilized mations of , has committed an outrage on American citizens, at which humarity shudver; and f{ rwhat? For what has this gross outrage against the American people been perpetrated ? when I ray the American people, Ido not moan those only who had the good fortune to be born here, but those who driven from their native lands by tyrano: have joined their fortunes to ours, and become American citizens. (Applaure.) Such acts as these, of which we have this day beard, committed by the government of Cuba under ite very eyes, and sanctioned by its autho- rity; euch acts, I say, will work the ruin of any govern- ment that tolerates them. (Great applause ) No better ‘evidences of the epeedy downfall of Spanish deepotiem are needed than there atrocious deeds of its officials, (At this peint there was a slight sprinkling of rain, and on some peron iu the meeting remarking that it was rain- ing.

(Great applause.) Fellow citizens, I will conclude by remarking that the fire of liberty. which has been smouldering for centuries in @ubs. bas been rekindled; that its flame now burns brightly, and the time is not far distant when Cuban in- dependence will be established, and Cuba will be one of the United States; not asa conquered country, but ase voluntery member of this great confederacy © God him. self has decreed that Cuba shall be free, and that she shall be @ State of this glorious confederacy, and human power cannot prevent it. (Great applause, in the midst of which Captain Rynders eat down.) Judge Reap, of Cincinnatti,was here introduced to the immense assemblage, and made a brief speech. Ho raid, we are here assembled for the purpose of expressing ourf opinions on the atrocities recently committed by the Spanish authorities, in Cuba, on Amerioan citizens, We are hero as citizens ofa free republic, to maintaia the honor of the fleg that has waved over us from our i fancy, and under which we have marched to victory on many occasions. (Applause.) We were aroused from our slumbers, last evening, by intelligence that fell upon us like @ thucderboit in mid-day. We had supposed that the griat bizbway of nations was open co American citizens, for we had ¢ ought that they had vindicated their right toit We thought that the bene of our dove and the fle+h of our fiesh,om the shores of the Pacific bad a right to communicate with their friends on the At. lantic coast. At this point of Judge Read’s speech, Capt Rynders asked leave to read the following extract from Mr. Web- ster’s despatch to Mr. Fox, the British Minister at Wahington, in relation to the difficulties which rew out of the Canadian rebellion, in 1837, Mr. yebster is looked up to as great authority on such subjects, acd beld, at the time he wrote the despatch, the eame office in Capt. Tyler's Cabinet, that be now holds in Mr, Fillmore’s. It is not likely, Uherefure, that the present administration in Washington would be disposed to dispute the position which Mr. Webster took on that oceasion, Tbe extract is us follows:— Her Mojest those Ameri ada. ene mext, a3 “American pirate: he undersigned dues not acmit the propriety or justice of this designation, If citizens of the United States atted out, or were engaged fa fit in out, @ military cx pecition fromthe United States intonda: tw act ayainot the British government m Uanada, thay were tt wd exposin) be inthicte government ai Jvet consequences which m on them if taken within the Betivh dominion: tanding this, they were certainly not pirat udersighed tiimk thet it cam advance the iriendly diseussi national difiiculties, 20 to donominate them. ‘hele offeuce, Whatever it Was, bad no analegy to eases of piracy.

Mr. Reid bere read the resolutions, which were strongly condemnatory of the course of Mr. Owen, and which ended by soliciting the government to remove him from office, The resolutions were unanimcusly adopted, and groetod with cheers, ‘Three groans were then proposed, cnd heartily given, for the Am rican Consu! at Havana Epmonp Buanxwax, Heq., spoke at considerable length, but owing to the darkness of the night, it being nearly 8 o'clock when he commenced, and the excited enthu- aem that prevailed among the dense assembinge, we can- not give more than a brief outline of his speech, In animadverting, in the strongest terms, ou the atrocious act of the Cuban authorities, with regard to the late bar- berous execution of American citizens.
