FIFTEEN THOUSAND PEOPLE IN THE MILITARY PARK, Speeches of Hon, Anson Burlingame, Senator Hale, de, &e., &e. New. Jersey pronounced herself yesterday very dis- tinetly in favor of Fremont and freedom. The mass meeting aanounced,to be bold in the Military Park, New- ark, bad been made public tbrovghout the State, and at an early hour delegetions were covatantly arriving from ‘various localities, some coming long distances. Th whole neighborhood seemed alive with republican senti- ment. Groups were formed in front of stores, at corners of streets, and even inthe carriage road itself, aud there discussed the great issues at stake in the approaching election. On the steps of tho City Kytel, au advocate of Millarc Fillmore set forth the ciaims of his candidate to ome forty or fifty Fremonters, vainly endeavoring to stem the impetuosity of the torrent in faver of the Path- finder, Alfost every other man had a white band on bis coat, inscribed with tte ‘republican badge, and all ‘Dusinees for the nonce seemed entirely suspended. rr as tte eve could reach, carts,.wagons, stages and name- lees Jersey contrivances were seen approaching, bring tng load, of ‘men and worker to swoll the multitude, Bauyers and deyices streamed from the vehictes, and ‘ebeer, on obeer greeied their entry into the city. ‘Avout two o'clock a loug procession, numbering seve- ra! buzcreds, arrived from Rahway. It consisted of tag Bockeway Club, the Second Ward Republican Clud, and the Dedicher Fremont and Dayton ciub, A Jarge banaer beaded the procession, bearing the following motto:— PEEP LOEDIE ED PEDERELEIEDEROEE NEEDLE NOE LD HER) Ab G38 UNION SEANDS WITH SIXTBEN FREK STATES, — Mf WILL LAST UA SRVANTEENTH BY ADDED. 3 ACETONE TOLELEIT EEL ELEDEEOOELELOLEDELEIELE REDE About the timeof their entering the city a storm broke ont, but they marched bravely on through the falling rain, apd only stopped at tye place of revdezvous, wet ‘through, but undaynied, The storm prevented the meet ing Comog off at the appointed beur, but it eventualiy cleared olf, and the multitude coltected, and the Park was illed soon after three o'clock.

MAYOR WOOD AHEAD OF HiS OPPONENTS AT EVERY POINT—THE TICKETS BLEOT IN EVERY WARD—~ NAMES OF THE PROBABLE SUCCESSFUL 0 ANDIDATES SCENES AND INCIDENTS, BTO. The primary elections of the city democracy took place yesterday afternoon, between tie hours of three and tevcn o'clock, The Convention voted for were:— Ist. A city Convention, consisting of five delegates from each ward, to pomipate candidates for Mayor, City Judge and one Governor of the Alms House, which will convene ut Tammany Hal! next Monday, the 15th instant. 2d. For Congressicnal Conventionst to meet in their respective districts on Wedaesday, tbe 17th instant Sd, Assembly Conventions to meet on Thursday, the sth jastant, and 4th. Charter Conventions, to meet on the 22d instant, to elect Aldermen and Councilmen, 48 @ gencral thing, the elections passed offin a very quiet manner, taking into consideration the flerce feud that caists between the Wood and anti. Wood factions. We bear of rows in but two wards—in the Siateenth™and Seventeenth. Here the contest was spirited in more senses than one, and there were some beautiful displays of the noble art of self def.uce and offence, but no arrests were made. The quiet dieplayed is due partly to the hopelessnesg of the Custom House opposition to Mayor Wood, ag it is understood everything was ‘‘set’’ in the choice of inspectors, and the voting did not make much {ifference in the result. And then the police arrange- meuts were excellent, the officers being taken out of their own wards to do duty in districts where they were strangers. This had the ef- fect of making the officers attend to their duty, they having no “friewds to reward, or enemies to punish.’ The result ig au overwhelming majority for the Wood delegates. We hear of but two wards which elected an opposition ticket, viz : the Seventh, which will vote for Tweed, and the Eighteenth, which ts committed to Horace F, Clark. Unless some political earthquake iukes place, Sr, Wood will be re-nominated for Mayor at ‘Tammany Hall next Monday evening. For Congress, in the ‘Third district, delegates pledged to support Daniel E. Sickles were elected in every ward. In the Fourib dis- trict the Seventh ward elected delegates in favor of William R, Maclay; and the Thirteenth, celegates in favor of Dr. Philip Merkle. Williamsburg comprises the rest of this Pongreasional district, and bas not as yet elected delo- gates. Ip the Fifth district there was no opposition to the election of delegates in favor of the re-pomination of John Kelly, Inthe Sixth district, it is gaid, Joun Coch- rane bas secured the delegation; Alexander Ming, in the Seveuth, aad the Eighta is divided between Alderman Herrick and haifa dezen others, The followmg details are furnished by our reporter:— FIRST WARD.
