WHOLE NO. 697L MORNING EDITION—SATURDA SEPTEMBKK 29, CITY POLITICS. , Whe Half Shelis—First Public Meeting of the Daniel E. Sickles and Wm. Grandin, &c. In pursuance of a resolution passed at a meeting of the ‘Demooratic Republican Ward Committee of the Eleventh ‘Ward, held on Tuesday evening, st Union Hall, corner Fourth street and avenue C, a public meeting of the na- ‘tional democracy of the ward was culled Thursday even- ing at the same place. The disagreement of the commit- tee of this ward with the action of the General Committee in doing away with primary eleetions being generally _ known, and also the fact that on this account and other “issues an allied segment of the hard shells and soft shells ‘was sought to be organized into a distinct faction, to be designated the ‘half shells,” considerable inierest was felt to know how the proposition for the new organiza- tion would be.received. Large placards announcing the ‘meeting were conspicuously posted throughout the ward, as followe:— by cpg ree prety peerypiccedtroh eens = The Na Blectors ofthe Eleventh ward, opposed to Kaow. Nowingiam ve! Know Nothingiam Ww, and or At the hour announced for the meeting « large and enthusiastic assemblage was convened. Fronting the Hall was lighted an immense bonfire, which, with the loud peals of a cannon, especially detailed for the occa- ston, and the playing of lively airs by a band in attend- ance, imparted to the scene a degree of enthusiasm exhi- bited at no previous political gathering in this city during the ‘cree campaign. At 736 o'clock Dr. A. R. Bolling called the meeting to order, and moved that Ronsrr Fant, Eaq., be appointed The motion on Dr. una 2 one other officers were proposed and appointed as fol- , lows:— Vive Previdents—Terence P.

He had come, he said, to the present meet- ing to aid in the inauguration of a new era in the democratic f—an era in which it was hoy would be) engul to some extent, the multiplied jheresies, schisins abd jealousies which had more recently in their ranks, and, like Jonvh’s gourd in a single had grown and multiplied ex: ing'y. It formed important inquiry to learn the causes of the many distinctions that dissevered their party, to ask themselves the question proposed at Syracuse of August, whether in these disagreemonts any sound, solidimportant principle? The of the Syracuse Coventions of the 23d and Taiarorclimeesh. were both, ryviaes ot length, and the of proposition to restore harmony the two factions was characterized ns inex- aad aiming a disastrous blow at the allied of the great democratic party.

It was one, his view, of the greatest interest to the demo- ty. It was the germ of an organization that ituate, he hoped, in the haimony, united and ion of the present schisms and hercsies that dissevered the democrati: ranks.

It was for this purpose that at 4 recent State conven- he submitted a resolution — in view the union of the democracy upon principies and candi- dates. In offering this, revolution {¢ was not his pose to yield a single principle, or ad ew plank to the democratic platform, but that the should place themselves in a position that render them impregnable to the forces at war them, and reap a victory which must result from ee eis oo i i ceaak bial = to reject bia roporition, he Lad not deemed it advisable to i ‘the matter end there. From the vote of that con- ? vemtion he appealed to the people and to the democracy of the Kiev. ward to-night. A Vowr—We will sustain you. Mr. Stickies next spoke at some length on the reasons which had combined to keep separate the two sections of the democratic party. He then proceeded to establ’sh the following propositions:— Ast. That the hang igh epee in the rag vighened 7» te which took place in 1863, did not originate in any ditfer- ence Principles or ineasures. 2d. Phat the great issues now pending between the democracy and the opposition, viz., Know Nothingi«m, the Kansas question and the Maine law, have all arisen since the existing division occurred—that upon these issues the mass of both organizations entirely agree, and that thereupon all controversies about mere oaniza- tions, or upon old grounds or grievances, should be dis- |. That the national democracy have triumphed in the —— they have maintained in this State, toestab- * lish the doctrine that the question of slavery shonl be left to-the le of the Terntories. ‘That doctrine was recognized by the softs, and this was the great point of difference. Why then should the division be perpetuated?

BRA, Mr. A. B. Rouixs, chairman of the committee appoint- ed at the meeting of the Ward Committee Tu eve- ning to prepare an address and resolutions embodying the views of thove joining in the new movement, now came forward and made the address, as submitted by the cemmittee. The address was quite lengthy. We give its Iading features. The democratic masses were called upon to disregard at the present time all minor dilfer- ences, forget past controversies and dissensions, and unite upon a plattorm, in the carrying out of which the vice and vote and influence of the democracy of New York should be felt in opposition to the Know Nothings, aboli- tionists and Maine law fanaties. Great stress was placed upon the importance of primary elections. The action of the General Committee at Stuyvesant Institute, in doing away with them, war denounced as a desperate usurpa- tion of power and based upon an erroneous and degrading assumption, that the democracy were not strong enough to veto primary elections. The candidates named under the system adopted by the, General Committee wore de- clared “stump candidates,” and nothing more. They, therefore, urge the democracy of the Kleventh ward, and other wards, to join them in reorganizing the National Democratic “General Committee, and in electing nomin: conventions that will’ not only nominate good candidates, but open the door for union upon those agreeing in principle. They urge also that the matter be entered upon immediately; that a general committee offthree be chosen from each ward, and asso- ciations formed in every ward, to be designated the Na- tional Democratic Union Asociation. Certain modifica- tions are recommended in the conduct of primary clec- tions. The following are their leading principles, as enunciated in conclusion: Ist. Non-intervention by with the question of slavery in the Territories, and right of the people of the Territories to self-government. 2d. That neither foreign birth or religion should ex- elude from equal enjoyment of political rights. 3d. Opposition to the Maine law, and all. legislation like it hostile to the rights of property and individual ty. The address was adopted by an unanimous vote. Mr. Vincest M. Lyon read the tollowing resolutions, which were passed unanimously :— Whereas, The National Democratic Republican General Committee bas, by a gross usurpation of rer, deprived the democracy of the wards of any voice in the chalce of candi- dates to be s assed the people, and has to nominations for the party in viola tion of all principle ana precedence; therefore Resolved, That the General Committee, In refusing to allow the floctorsm the nevoral wards any voloe tn, telt primary matters, has abdicated ite functions, abandoned ite segitima’ duties, nnd violated the trusis to It, as the executive agent of the national democracy; and that the duty {s now un- authority virtual Masses, b¢ oljest 1 With'thone who were willing to carryout the lera.

Emanve. B. Hart, in oe to numerous calla, came upon the stand. He said that it would delight him to address the democracy of the Eleventh ward, and especially upon an ceension fraught with the momen- tous and interests connected with their present meeting. ‘The state of his health forbade lengthened speech, Tie could heartily endorse, however, the sentiments that had been uttered in their hearing. ‘His earnest sympathies were with the present mowement, and he should use every effort within his power to carry to completion the ends sought to be gained. (Cheers.) He believed the best interests of the democratic party would be effected thereby. pg eG loudly called for but did not appear. A motion was made to adjourn, which was carried. The assemblage thereupon dispersed in the utmost har- mony and quiet. In the early part of the evening a rather noisy character, oxe interruptions of the speakers by continued’ interjaculatory remarks were deemed a little too spirited, was removed from the hall. Other than this everything passed off orderly.
