In the early part of the day the votes were poured im rapidly inall the districts. On the whole the vote polled ‘was large, but there was very little disposition to crowd round the polling places. Indeed, with the exception of the polling place in Broad street, there was no crowd at all; the voters, the canvassers and the men delivering the tickets being the only parties participating in the scene. As a general thing the drinking houses were open, and in the atternoon several drunken men appeared in the vi- cinity of the polls, but they did not succeed in creating any disturbance. Not a single arrest was made up tothe closing of the polls. At the Broad Street House—the poll- ing place of the Fifth diatrict—there was an incipient row about noon, but the interference of the police, who were there in strength, instantly suppresed it. Contrary to all expectation no fight occurréd mm the First ward, much to ‘We disgust of several of the fightitig Men in that locality, SECOND WARD. Everything passed off quietly in this ward. There were no rows, no arrests, and very little enthusiasm. The Votes were deposited without obstructign throughout the aay, THIRD WARD. The day passed in this ward without any disturbance worth mentioning. A heavy vote was polled, and much feeling was manifested on the Mayoralty question, but the Aldermanic candidates excited the most interest. The ‘Third ward is a part of the First Aldermanic district, and its voters had to choose between four cindidates, all of whom hailed from the First ward. The principal contest was between the friends of * Billy’? Wilson and ‘Mike’? Murray, and if their adherents are to be believed, both of these eminent gentlemen are elected, and will adorn the city councils during the coming year. The Third ward was formerly a whig stronghold, late years it bas been becoming more demo- cratic, owing to the removals of the wealthier citizens up town. The Washington market dealers exer- cise a considerable influence in this ward,and for some reason or other they cast their votes yesterday for Tie- mann. There was heavy betting as to the result of the election, ‘nnd much money must bave changed hands, Two rabid partisans became so excited that one offered to saw a load of wood in front of the Gerard House, at the corner of Chambers street and West Broadway, op Thursday after noon, between the hours of one and three o'clock, pro- ‘vided his candidate was elected, if the other party would do the same thing. The wager was instantly accepted, and next Thursday this absurd wager will be complied with. There was no rioting and no arrests for illegal ‘voung in this ward. FOURTH WARD. ‘The exhibitions of a belligerent character were not so ‘pumerous in this ward as at previous elections. An attack was made on one of the Clancy ticket boxes, which was under the charge of a man named Macarthy ,who defended it with a pistol. The assailing party, named James White, was algo armed with a pistol, and, for a time, the difficulty ‘assumed a rather serious aspect. Officer Henry S. Phillips, however, happened to be at hand, and by getting between the combatants, succeoded in putting an end to the diff- culty, but not before Macarthy bad fired two shots at his assailant. Neither of the belligerent, it appears, was arrested. The ward received a visitation from a party of fifty supposed to be a detachment from the Dead Rabbit Club, who had a few skirmishes with the friends of Crowe, the Dead Rabbits being in favor of Clancy. Beyond a few Dioody noses and black-eyes,no damage & serious character was done. The following persons were arrested for egal voting:—John Carson, Cornelius Engright, Mi- chael Connery and Henry Crawley. The posters of the ‘opposing candidates for Aldermen were torn into shreds, while those of Tiemann seemed to have entirely disap- peared. Compared with former elections, as we bave Baid, this one passed off peaceably. FIFTH WARD. ‘There was an unusually heavy vote polled in this ward, ‘and the Inspectors had a busy time all day long. The low, as regards liquor selling, was observed by all the re- Ppectable establishments in tho ward, and the effect was ween in the few drunken and disorderly persons at the polling places. This ward at one time used to roll up jeavy whig majorities, but of late years the democrats hhave had everything their own way. It was remarked yhat many old whigs, who will not affiliate with any of the new parties, voted yesterday and against the democratic ticket. It was remarked also yesterday that all the “‘roughs,"’ who usually support the democratic candi- dates, were yesterday on the other side of the question. here must have been immense sums of money spent by the Tiemann party to secure this kind of belp. There was no fighting at the polls, and only one persou was arrested for illegal voting. He gave his name as William Robinson ‘and said he was by trade a tanner, He was taken to the ‘Tombs. SIXTH WARD. There were comparatively few fights in the Sixth ward yesterday, and with one exception the personal damage inflicted was trifling. Mr. Haggerty, one of the candidates for Councilman, was violently assaulted, and received a pevere cut on the bead from a stone thrown at him by one of his political nia. It is not thought that it will prove very serious. A gang of election bullies, namber- ing between two and three hundred, made a descent upon the Tiemann ticket boxes, scattered the tickets about the mtrceta and broke up the boxes. The ticket distributers ‘were driven away Wherever they were found; but after the — resumed their occupation with what- ever yy had left. In the language of one of the Policemen, “they went through the ward like a whirl wind,” and perhaps to this circumstance is owing the fact qhat none of them were Whirlwinds are rather dangerous affairs, and the of. ficers holding = their —_ personal safety above ‘every other consideration did not interfere with this one. ‘The akirmishers who operated in smaller parties did not escape | however, there was nothing of the whirlwind character about them, and so they were taken into cus toly and placed in durance vile. They wero Patrick Lally, James Murray, James Brown and C. Truman. The last named insisted on depositing his ballot, although it it war clearly shown that he was not entitled to ‘a vote in the ward. ides the descent made upon the ticket boxes, the bullies amused themselves in tearing down the Tiemaup posters from the walls, SEVENTH WARD, Since the first form of municipal government was grant. el to this city—now over two tundred years ago—there never was, perhaps, such extraordinary excitement and anxiety as for the result of the elections throughout the city, yet never was there more peaceable and orderly de- ‘meanor among the people of this ward. Aj) was quiet. ‘There was a pardonable manifestation of feeling for th Tedpective candidates, and more voters came forth to record their franchises than on any former occasion 0 late years. The Inspectors at every poll in this ward in- formed our reporter that there were more votes deposited up to haif-past 12 o'clock than there were at the last lee tion at the close of the poll, Old gentlemen who for many Yoars past would not undergo the inconveni and trouble of standing on the sidewalk and being subjected to all the annoyances of attending at the polls, came forth yesterday and deposited their bal tom. Our reporter found Captain Rynders in this ‘ward, busy. He was at the polls, protecting the democratic voters, and aiding them in their challenges. He eaid in two or three instances that they were entitled vote and that they should vote. He told them that ‘though he had been charged by interested parties that he ‘was opposed to Mayor Wood, it was false; he never -yot went against the regular democratic ticket, and he would BuAHOTt it now from Wood down. The Captain was cheered Inswly Whenever he went, and to hi anxious inquiries all round he learned that Wood was ahead of Tiemann; and that 6Jame, for Alderman, on the same regular nomina tion Hiaket, was leaving MeConnell in the back ground On aria ing at the corner of Jackson street, Capt. Rynders pied & lag suspended from the house of a well known th the name of Tiemann displayed on it; « What,” said he, “has Dick turned against ns?’ “ No,” Feplied a byvtander; « Did you ever know him to go any Dut the ‘régulac’ democratic nomination?” «I thought not,” eald the Captain, ** Put om your specs, then, Marshal, and Fead the flag.’ When the Marshal looked again he eaw, } dissatisfaction at the new as our reporter saw, the flag which he thought to be for Tiemann, to be thus:— * STOCKJOBBERS aND Trartors CANDIDATE FOR Mayor, DANIEL F. TIEMANN Andon a flag at the opposite side of the street, suspended Patron cy rine a . Rynders laughed at his being “taken in’ at first sight, and in return “ took all the boys in’ todrink. The Captain was lavish of his money, and gave the boys in the regular democratic interest, fives, tens and twenty dollars ata ind, lo-enant (0's cominele of ie Racivan ene eee distributors. Tn this ward a man named Davis was arrested and com- mitted for having recorded an vote, and four others for attempting to vote illegally. ‘was no rioting in this ward. Up to the cl of the polls all was quiet. EIGHTH WARD. This is usually a turbulent ward, but yesterday the election passed off without even a friendly knock down; in fact it was stupidly quiet, and the “boys” all declared they’d ‘spile”’ if elections are to be conducted in this way in future. There was little drunkenness, and the police arrangements under the care of Captain Turabull were excellent. There was much confusion in the minds of the voters growing out of the new Aldermanic districts, which puzzled every one. It was impossible to make the old voters understand that the Eighth ward did not have ‘an Alderman of its own to choose, and there was much , ‘Meeh of the in- out of the candidates for Police and Civil Justices. All the parties had candidates in the fleld,and the democracy had two sets of as] ts for terial honors. There was much feeling on the sub- ject. The friends of the Civil Justices were anything but civil, and one or two persons who befriended the Police jistrates ought to have been committed. However, the difficulties did not result in blows. Two were ar- rested for illegal voting. One gave his name as John O'Donnell, and said he was a mason by trade. The other gave his ‘name as R. Mills, and alleged he was a black- smith by trade. They were both sent to the Tombs. NINTH WARD. At an early hour in the morning the doorways leading to the different polling places in this ward were literally choked up with persons rushing to deposit their votes. ‘There was very little disturbance during any part of the day, as every one walked away almost immediately after discharging the business which brought them to the polls, About three o’clock, however, some boys began to visit the different polling places, but found it impossible to inconvenience the voters in the slightest degree; and an attempt on their part to get up a row in the Sixth district, at the corner of Hammond and Fourth streets, resulting only in the capture of one of their num- ber by the police, they soon after ‘cserted thé ward alto: er, F hierdie judging chat they might turn their efforts, if not to better at least to more important account elsewhere, Almost all the votes in this ward were depo- sited before twelve o'clock, after which hour few, except the police, could be seen standing near the polis. The number of bystanders did not increase until about five o’clock P. M., when there was arush to the polls by a large number of persons who were anxious to learn the result of the ballot; but there was such a disposition to quietness and order evinced throughout the entire of the day as is rarely witnessed on any similar occasion. TENTH WARD, There were six districts in this ward, and although the polls were the scene of considerable excitement, especial- jy during the earlier part of the day, everything passed off quietly, and so far as could be ascertained no arrests were made, The ‘Wood’ vote in this ward is unquestionably very large, for, daring our reporters’ stay at the polling places, the citizens were going the regular democratic ticket.” Quite a rich harvest was reaped by a lot of young- sters who vended poetic effusions on the ristics of the rival candidates for Mayor. One ed urchin ac- costed a citizen with the freedom of one who felt he knew how to drive a trade with ‘Here is Fernando Wood, only ‘one cent.”’ “Get off with you, you little brat,’ was the unceremonious reply of the person addressed, with an air of offended dignity; “I don’t want any of your Wood bal- Jads’? (ballots). “Bah, its because you are a Know Noth- ing,’ rejoined the indefatigable vender of poetic literature, and hastened away. Going on a few steps further our re- porter heard an enthusiastic admirer of Mr. Wood observe that he “would bet a $100 that Fernando Wood is Mayor of New York now.’ @ advocate of Tiemann res| led by saying ‘I don’t differ from you on that point, but J will bet you that he will not be Mayor next January.’ ELEVENTH WARD. ‘The Eleventh ward was quiet yesterday for a wonder, and the police had nothing to do. This was an unlooked for occurrence, considering the rowdy materiel in the upper sections known as “Mackerelville,”’ “Battle Row,”’ «Four Gun Battery,” &c.,&c. The only excitement ap. peared among the friends of the opposition candidates for Aldermen—John Anderson and Frank Boole—and the fa- ‘vorites of each were at times uproarious and pugnacious, yet there was little blood spilt, and the Wood men went Strong in favor of Wood. TWELFTH WARD. Mr. Tiemann tives in this ward, which includes Harlem, Manhattanville, Carmanville and Bloomingdale, ranging from Ninety.second street to 158th street, The Tiemann banners were much more numerous than the others. At the First district poll there was no rial obstruction, and no disturbance of moment. A 'y of the “Black Jokea’’ came up, but did not make any serious demon. stration. In the Fourth district, where Mr. Tiemann lives, everythingl was, quiet, as also in the Third and Fifth. In the Second district the boys complained that they had not seen a “cop” of the money, and they knew there was plenty of it about. They thought it ‘was too bad to be so slighted after working hard all day. The police were oN the ward, and stationed a large force at the polls. Up to sundown they had but two prisopers—one named James Madden, for attempting to Vote illegally, and one for disorderly conduct. THIRTRENTH WARD. ‘This ward wae quiet. There eeemed to be more anxiety and demonstration for the Aldermanic ticket than for that of Mayor, There was @ noisy set of boys at No. 22 Sheriff street, but their anxiety was all as to whether McConnell or Adams should be successful as Alderman. Beyond this and a few patriotic ebullitions there was no disturbance. ‘A few fellows were taken up for drunkenness and fighting. POURTRENTH WARD. Faandreds of the b’hoys congregated around the polling places as soon as they were opened, and the crowd gradu ally increased till noon, among whom were some exceed- ingly rough characters, who, if they indulged in a few glasses of bad rum, would have been very hard to manage; but the police arrangements were so perfect that the Yeast attempt at getting up a disturbance would have been nipped in the bad. Although the of the drinking saloons professed to have cl their doors, many of the patriotic citizens imbibed freely, and that, too, in sight of a of officers, who did not interfere. terest in this election It was said that Tiemann hada 'y in one or two of the districts; but Mr. Wood carried most of the districts by « great There were no arrests made for majority. illegal voting in this ward, and not the slightest symptom of a disposition to develope the combative instincts in an illegitimate manner. A man who presented himself at the Sixth district. when informed that he was incompetent to vote for some cause or other, expressed himself in very strong adjectives, which it is ‘needless to repeat; but the officers speedily removed him. A juvenile of about eight summers created considerable merriment for the bystand- ers, by vociferating at the tap of bis voice, at short inter vals, ‘Here you are, reglar dimecratic ticket, Fornandy ‘Wood for Mayor.”’ FIFTEENTH WARD. Trusual quietness prevailed at the polls in this ward. In the morning the voters came in great force to deposit their votes, 80 that a considerable number of persons en- circled the doors and passages leading to the ballot boxes. Towards noon, however, it was casy to effect a passage to or from the boxes, and in the afternoon only an occa- sional voter could be seen dropping in to exercise the right of franchise. There was no disturbance of any kind at any of the polls in this ward, but a drunken fellow, who reomed disposed to get up a muss, Was promptly arrested at one of the polls, and forthwith conveyed most un- ceremonious manner to the station house. Towards the close of the voting there was a rush to ascertain the result ‘of the balloting to all the polls in the district, but amid all the Thess manifested to obtain information, the most creditible tranquillity prevailed. SIXTEENTH WARD. The voting in this ward was conducted with much spirit and general good feeling among the opposing factions. It was very generally conceded to be the most quietly con ducted election, considering the amount of party feeling ‘and importance of the canvass, which has taken place io that ward for several years—probably owing to the fact that those who felt disposed to commit breaches of the peace were deterred from it in consequence of the large posse of police and specials distributed at each of the potting. aces. At the Ninth district one man, named Robert iidey , was arrested. th having assaulted John C. Blanvelt at the polls. He was locked up in the Sixteenth ward station house. Another man, named Thomas Liddie, was also taken in charge by the police at this district, for committing an unprovoked assanit on Andrew Malone With these exceptions everything passed off perfectly quiet in the ward. One man came to the potle of this dis. trict about two o'clock and ¢ ited a full vote, saying that atthough ke had lived in that district for many years, that was the first batlot he had deposited in tem years. a SEVENTEENTH WARD. During the morning ther» wae no excitement whatever in this ward, prior to 1 o'clock, except that one of the boxes for the distribution of tickete was torn down and broken up in the Ninth district, the polls of which were held at No. 208 First avenue. The difficulty arose be tween two opposing factions, the heads of which were agpiranta for Aldermanic honors: and a similar occurrence ook place about 9 o'clock at the polls in Thirteenth PRICE TWO CENTS. the worst part of Mackerel- A box was there torn down, and was not after- wards put up.

The fight continued half an bour or more, during which time a ‘shower of brickbats was thrown indiscriminately into the crowd, ‘wounded by the brick bats, and it was rumored that one a piatol shot; but the particulars could not be obtained. Word was sent immediately to the Police station houses of*the Seventeenth and Kleventh wards, and Captain Hartt despatched twenty-five men, under Sergeant McKelvey, to the scene of the disorder; but before they arrived the disturbance was ended and the crowd dispersed. EIGHTEENTH WARD. At the poll, No. 22 East Twenty-first street, ono of the ticket boxes was thrown over, but was immediately right- ed, and the parfY offending arrested. Aside from this the ‘ward was quiet. NINETEETTA WARD. This ward has usually been rather disorderderly on election days, but yesterday tt was comparatively quiet, There was no fighting or rioting, but some little halloing, pushing, shoving, and the like, around some of the polls. me of our foreign citizens indulged in a little merry-mak- ing. in their own way and among themselves around the pollsin Forty-seventh street, between Second and Third avenues, An attempt was made to get up some little ex- citement atthe polis corner of Sixty-firststreet and Second avenue, but there was no serious fighting. The republican ticket box was capsized and thecrowd enjoyed themseives to their full in shoving, pushing, laughing, yeMing an@ hurraing. At one time they made ‘arush atthe polis, as ‘was thought to break the ballot boxes, but meeting the uplifted clubs of a considerable force of police, they thought it better to retreat with bravado than with loss and wounds. One of the crowd judiciously remarked, “Tam not going to get_ my head cut open for the election of anybody.” No arresis were made during the day. The voting was nearly all done in the early part of the day; the polls were crowded when first opened, while hardly any votes were cast during the last two hours that the polls were open, TWENTIETH WARD. The forces of all parties in this ward were pretty fairly represented. In many of the districts more votes had been polled by ten o'clock in the morning than were poll- ed at the same places during the entire day of the late State election, and during the day the number of votes cast far exceeded those of any previous election for years. Up to about three o'clock everything passed off perfectly quiet at all of the polls of the ward, although each party were not at all remiss in forwarding the claims of their respective candidates; yet with the large body of police in the ward and at thé polls (over 120 all told, includ specials and 28 from Brooklyn, E. D., under char; ‘oF Sergeant Bennett), no serious outbreak took place. About four o’clock a party of Fes men, who commenced patrolling the ward and visiting the verious districts for the purpose of “regulating” affairs, came to the corner of Ninth avenue and Thirty-sixth street, where the boxes of the respective ‘ties and candidates were located for the purpose of distributing tickets. Here they halted, and after proposing three cheers for Mayor Wood and three groans for Tiemann, proceeded in the most approved style to upset the Tiemann box. This, however, proved not to be 80 easy a task, for’ party of some twenty or more young men, friends of Tiemann, opportunely arrived 'on the ground a few minutes before the others, each ed with a club, and calling themselves “Club Boys,”’ who gave the would be rowdies a very warm and unlooked for club reception, thereby preventing them from carrying their project into execution and easily keeping them at bay, although they fought desperately until the arrival of Sergeant Bennett, with a posse of police, who succeeded in arresting the fol: lowing named persous, who were taken to the station house and locked up, after a desperate attempt at rescuc ‘on the part of their friends:—John Corrigan, Jobn Delaney, Hugh Nolan and Terrance Koliey. arrest of these parties eprommgy dave astop to difficulty, In addi- tion to the above, police arrested John F nn for disorderly conduct at the Seventh district poll. He was locked up. With the above exceptions everything passed off quietly in this ward. TWENTY-FIRST WARD. The election in this ward yesterday passed off with per- fect order, regularity and quietude. There was not the least disturbance or confusion. Nota single arrest was made in the whole ward during the day. The citizens ‘went to the polls at an early hour, voted, and quietly re- — hepa ed sang It by man; —. — Hy municipal election has passed off so ly. Nearly all business was ed during the Gwe iecemed more like the Sabbath or @ holiday, than the day of an exciting election. TWENTY-SECOND WARD. There were eight polling places in this district, ranging from Forty-second street and Tenth avenue to Righty- fourth street and Broadway. The regulations with respect to keeping the ticcet booths at @ distance from the polls was rigidly enforced, though the number of exceedingly happy sovereigns denoted the liquor law was not so successful in ite bop or There were large crowds of men and boys at all the polls during the entire day, and Mayor Wood's friends seemed largely in the major. A very large gang of lively individ the ward all day, visiting the polis in detail. ly an en- thusiastic Tiemann man, or an offensive Tiemann ticket Dox was overset, but up to the time of closing the polls, no demonstrations were made on the ballot boxes. In the First district the crowd seemed greatest, and the Nemann boxes were not very stationary. In the Second district there was at one time a gang of four hundred men, who came marching up to the polls, but they contented themselves with cheering. In the Third, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth and Seventh districts the vote polled was very heavy, and the travelling caravan of the demo- cracy was present at intervals, but though there were a few friendly set to's and an inconsiderable number of black eyes. The would-be Alderman Seagrist and the regular Alderman Drake were to be seen riding about in carriages, ax good humored as if they were not interested, ‘and each'was equally Jar with the boys when the other was out of sight. Justice Connolly was omnipresent, and was always “strack” by the boys for fifty cents or a dollar to supply the needfal stimulants, In the Eighth dis. trict, where Mayor Wood resides, the enthusiasm for him was great. The cry on nearing the polle, was “here's for Mayor Wood, this way—no monopoly and no moustachi ‘ons.’ It was said, however, that even in this district Tie. mam was running very well, The police were patrolling the ward in squads all day. The specials were mostly sta- tioned at the polls, and the regulars either kept in reserve At the station house or patrolling the wards. Consic ering there are a great many of our Celtic fellow-citizens in this ward, who always have an enjoyable time on election day, the election yesterday may be said to have paswed off with unusual quiet. There were up to the closing of the polls Dut eight arrests, and these were for di rly conduct and drunkenness. The police and the citizens aro desery. ing of much commendation for this excellent order. ARRESTS FOR ILLEGAL VOTING. Quite a number of arrests for Mlegal voting were made by the police yesterday. The prisoners, in most cases, were non-residents of the districts wherein they attempted to exercise the privilege of voting. Some of them even came from Westchester and Kings counties, with a view of exercising their right to vote upon a matter which was entirely foreign to their interests at home, while in other cases not a few of the accused seemed to think that ia the ward they lived in and that in which they did busi: ness was all right and according to Hoyle. From the returns furnished us by our reporters we have made up the following summary of arrests for illegal voting yester. day :— Jon Carron was taken intocustody by the Fourth ward police, on charge of having attempted to vote illegally at one of the polling places in Cherry street. Cornelins Enright, Wm. Connery and Henry Crawley were also arrested by the Fourth ward police for attempt me to vote, not having the legal right so to do. They were all locked up in the station house for the remainder of the day. This morning they will be brought before Justice Connolly at the Lower Police Court Wm. inson wae arrested by policeman Bennett, of the Fifth ward, on the charge of attempting to vote illegal. ly. He was taken to the Lower Police Court, and commit- ted by the presiding magistrate. James Murray, « resident of Rondout, attempted to cram his tickets into the boxes at the Fifth distrid§ polling place of the Sixth ward, contrary to the wishes of the in epectors. He was arrested hy the Sixth precinct police ‘on charge of attempting to vote illogally, and was locked ‘up in the Sixth ward station honse for examination. ‘James Brown, an Englishman, residing in Kings county, attempted to play the same game at the Fifth district poll ing place. He was arrested on charge of attempting to vote iMegally, and was locked up in the Sixth ward station house for the remainder of the day Patrick Lally, a resident of No. 100 Worth street, at tempted to vote illegally at the Third district polls, ia the Sixth ward, and was arrested upon the spot. Lally was locked up for examination. Morris Cohen, a resident of the Tenth ward was arrested while attempting to vote a Tiemann ticket at the Third dis triet a of the Sitth ward.

James Hutchinson. was arrested by the Seventh ward police, on charge of ge to vote WMegally. The prisoner was brought before Justice Wood, when he stated that he lived on board of a ship, but said he could not remember ber name. Committed for examination.

THE TIEMANN HEADQUARTERS. The ‘Tiemann Headquarters,” on Broadway, last night was crowded to suffocation—a matter got to be wondered at, when we consider that the room was not more than thirty feet by twelve. There being no chairman, secre tary, nor any other official present, the whole proceedings of the evening were entirely impromptu. During the evening reports arrived from the various wards showing an immense majority for Mr. Tiemann. These announce- ments were received with loud applause. Balloting on brown paper were atuck up on the wall announcing a majority for Tiemann of 5,418, the appearance of which was the signal for vociferous applause, and criea of “Three for the Hmnau,”’ and “ Where is the reporter of the Henan?’ Ovn Rerorter—He is hore, what do want of him? A Vorce—To h-ll with bim and the Herat. Loud groans and cheers intermixed followed this efu- sion. Our reporter, however, did not lose his self. possession, as no’ hostile demonstration followed. He retained his seat at tho table next to tho recording clerk, who continued to pile up the majorities for ‘Nemann as each voice from the miscellaneous crowd called them out. As the night pro- gressed, however, tho vote for Tiemann began to diminiah, and at nine o'clock the majority of & 418 for Tiemann, posted on the wall, was replaced by a bulletin, showing only 1,800 majority, and several wards to bo heard from. This decreased the enthusiasm considerably, and the meeting began to disperse, evidently with a view to acquire more accurate information elsewhere, Several cheers were given for Daniel F. Tiemann, and as = for Mayor Wood; after which, the crowd gradual- 'y dispersed. The barroom of the St. Nicholas, adjoining the head. atre of political disquisition ; d groans for Wood indicat enters of that lecality, on this occason at ere worshippers of the rising sun resented the appear: mp. rder whatever waa preserved there, and though the reports of Mr. Temann’s majorities poured in from an early hour of the evening, there seemed to exist considerable doubt of his success up to the last moment. THE SCENE AT TAMMANY HALL, SPERCHES OF SEVERAL SMALLER LIGHTS—INQUIRIES FOR THE UNITED STATES OFFICIALS—NONE OF THEM ON THE STAND—CAPT. RYNDERS MAKES TITS APPEARANCE AND A SHORT SPEECH, AND G#TS INTO AN ALTERCATION WITH ONE OF THE SPEAKERS— THE CAPTAIN IS APPLAUDRD AND HIS ADVERSARY EXPELLED—SPEEBCH OF HON. JOHN COCHRANE, ETC. Tammany Hall, last evening, was a moral thermometer of unusual sensitivences, The slightest variations of the temperature of the political atmosphere were itmlicated with admirable precision, If a chilling rumor were waft ed within its walls of Tiemann majorities, the democratic spirit within the tube sank to the freezing point, whilst ance of a disorganized simoon of & democratic success, caused it to rise to boiling heat, with eminent danger of ite bursting the tube, The thermometer was at times not ture, one tube resting upon the floor of the barroom and the other in the hall above; and while in the barroom tho democratic epirite would sink to zero, in the hall proper it would be at fever heat, At six o’clock the democracy, harmonious in a common hope and common fear, began to assemble. The barroom was filled, as was also the rear room, where committees are wont to meet. Some of the old familiar faces were present. Others wero unaccountably absent. Tom Dunlap, for hort of the Pewter Muy, where the (decsta at tte democracy has Ween cared for under his auspices, was resent with Daniel E. Delevan, the Grand Sachem of the mmapy Society, who ou thix occasion was character- ized by @ bilious grandeur. But most of the leaders ere nom est. Captain Rynders, whose chaste toric and enchanting oratory have often mar- shalled the hosts into ono ns body, was not there, having gone over to the enemy. A imelancholy man, whose attontion was called to the fact, said that “there was butone Rynders, and federal pap was his profit.’’ The Sage of Bloomingdalo was absent— he being engaged in looking after the aldermanic re- turns, for which position he is an aspirant. The retarns from the Second and Third wards, with small majorities: for Tiemann, was a wet blanket. ‘The announcement that the Firth had given 500 for Tiemann increased the chill; but the Sixth, with 2,000 for Wood, revived hope, and nu- merous draughts were made upon the sympathetic lager. The hail was opened at ton minutes to seven o'clock, and there was a rush of the unterrified up stairs, leaving @ misanthropi¢ individual in the rear room counting over his figures with an evident diarelish. But spirita revived’ under the inspiration of the orators and frequent reported majorities from the democratic wards. Good feeling offer- vesced in excellent style, and everybody who had no money wag ready to bet any amount on Mayor Wood's election, with no takers, But a reaction wok place, as reactions will take place, and hopes sank into demooratic boots by unfavorable news, only to be raised again by announcements more favorable, Hope, however, ¢ continued active in the Hall until it became own lefeat was inevitable, though fear propon- derated in the barroom below. See Bare t 7 o'clock DaNTRL E. DéLeVAN appeared on the ros- rum and called the meeting to order, Ho said: — Brother Democrats— (Three cheers for Dan Delevan, and acry of “What is your name?”)—You ask me my name? It is Delevan. (Cheers for Delevan.) We have met here this evening, according to our time-honored usages, to hear the reports of the election from the different wards of our city. Youare all aware, my fellow democrata, that we have had a strong contest. We have had all the isms of the day against us, but we believe that our groat, standard bearer of the democracy is elected. (Loud cheers.) We may be defeated by the isms (‘No, sir-reo””) but if we are, my democratic brothers, we are not con- quered, We will not be conquered. We cannot be con- quered. (“No, sir, never.”’) We have never had in the political history of the democratic party, a fight that has been go important to the democracy of this city as it bas been at this last election, and the democracy have shown their strength and their devotion to the great democratic prineiples in the manner in which they have turned ‘Da e tide of battle upon our enemies. “Brother demo- crate, we have had at this election everything resorted to to defeat us, All the isms have been combined, and we in our own ranks, who, when they found y not defeat us, they have combined with the black republicanism, Know N hingiam, and eve other ism--Wall streetisms and all. (Loud’ che ant Inughter, and thres groans for the traitors.) We do not think for a moment that our standard bearer is defeated, brother democrats. All we have to dois to wait patiently and seo the returns, and I think that before we leave your hearts will be gladdened by hearing that democratic winciples are still in the ascendant in the city of New ork, (Three cheers for Fernando Wood, and groans for Tiemann.) I shall propose as your chairman on his oc- easion, a young, active and efficient democrat, Mr. Genet, who bas been on the same ticket with Fernando Wood, and is elected, as we have every reason t hope that Fernando Wood is. (Loud cheers. ) Mr. Genet took the stand amid the applause of the assembled democracy. He said Brother Democrats—We meet here to-night, as has been stated by Mr. Delevan, for the purpose of receiving the returns Of the different wards in reference to the election which has taken place to-day, aud which we hope and be- lieve has resulted in the success of our standard bearer. Fernando Wood. (Three cheers tor Wood.) Fellow de- mocrata, I have the good fortune to be on the same ticket with him, and Ido believe that | am elected (cheers,) and that Fernando Wood is also elected; and if you remain here for a short time, you will get the returns and share with me the joy on learning that he is elected by a handsome majerity. (“That's it’) I will wate that the: Third ward returns have already arrived. The Third ward Js the stroughold of whiggery and black republican- tem, and bas given only sixty-two majority for Daniel F. Temann; whereas, from 500 to 600 majority.was ex- pected. (Loud cheers and sepulchral groans for Tie man.) And if they have failed in their stronghold, what Must be their success in the other wards? I will now in- troduce to you General Follett, a membor of the Canal “Board, who will address you until the returns come in. Mr. Foturrt took the stand, and had proceeded as far as “Fellow democrats,” when Mr. Delevan announced that the returns for the Sixth ward had arrived—(three cheers for the Bloody Sixth)—and Mr. Ge- net announced that the given 2,200 majority for Fernando Wood. (loud and protracted cheers, in which an enthusiastic demo- crat knocked « lamp over on the reporters’ table. (Loud cries of “Order, order,’’) General Forterr proceeded. Tam in your city to night, fellow democrats, by accident, but I am in fetes es for the purpose of meeting you, for f antiopate to seo many joyous faces who have passed through one of those ordeals which show the omuipotence, the power and the force of the democratic hosts of the city of New York. 1 live in what is called the rural distriew, but it always does me good—as it has on many occasions— to meet my democratic friends in Tammany Hal. (At this point, Coroner Connery approached the desk, stroking his claswic beard, and evincing a deal of complacency with himself and the democracy present.) At the last election. the democracy went into the contest as one man, and the result was asuceess. The contest in which you havo been called upon to act, is to result in a rebuke of your masters in Albany—the black republican and lam sorry to say that many of those whom 1 had hereto- fore looked upon ee democrats have now gone to the ranks of the black republican party. Thay have been called democrats by friends, but whether they have been really democrats at heart or not T cannot eay. (Throo groans for Sickles and John McKeon.) There are men who have grown fat upon yosr favor—if not from your hande, from the hands of thors whom you have elected and placed high in office in the United States government getting office under the general administration, and living and fattening upon the spoils of the democratic party. ‘They have gone where Itrust they will remain, I that yee will never have fellowship with them again. (Never.) contest you have gone through is, to be eure, in doubt. All contests are in doubt until we know the result. (Laughter.) But I have no doubt myself of the result of the democratic ticket in this city and fy great lead- er, Fernando Wood. (Three cheers.) No man in your city, in this important exigeney, has thrown himself into the breach more fearlessly to’ resist the encroachment upon your municipal rights than Fernando Wood. (‘That's #6”) ‘Honor is due to him for that, and I have no doubt the democracy have done their duty to him who has dono more than his duty to you. If qvery man in the demo. ‘eratic party has done his whole duty there ia no doubt of the result of the contest today. (Three groans for God- ‘rey Gunther.) It is not necessary to-night to go into a detail of the fT demogratic party; you them as wel You have met here to Vids ween. gratulate one another w one of the most magnificent victories that ever perched upon the banners of the de- moecracy of New York. (Cheers.) They say to you that this ix a contest against a man, and that an opponent # placed against yor Wood who is a no party man. But the object of it is to break you up to call off your forces, and by that moans get control of the great city of New York. If they gain thi contest # will not only be felt in the city of New York, but in the State and thronghout the whole Union. For the Revolu- tien, you mast recollect, that though pure and holy as was the cause, there were Benedict Arnolds, and now ‘see that there aro Sick los McK eons and Gunthers—(groan —men who will not stand by you. If you ever receive them wto the democratic hosts, you must make them do nance—a long peuance—more than is required in the jethodist church. (Langhter.) My frienda, Tam not in the habit of making speeches, and I have been in ‘that returns would come im that [ might close. I think © in soon, and that they will be such aa you ‘an Congratulate yourselves upon. (Three cheers for Fernando Wood and groans for Sickels.) Aa Mr. Follett closed his remarks a messenger came in ‘with partial returns from one of the wards indicating a de- mocratic majority in the ward. They were rece’ with loud cheers. The meeting was for a moment at a lose for an orator; but Cor ‘onnery being discovered on the floor near the epeaker's *tand, loud calls for “Connery” mere wade. ‘The Coroner, responding to the call, took his jon on the rostrum, He removed his gloves with a tic grace and eoveet his frees air until it assumed its hormal position. ene iminaries being accomplished, Dr. Conswrygddressed Ro meeting a folewes— Fellow a rats—I have been considerably in murder cases for the last fortnight or three weeks, (Laugher) [ have held many inquests, and they were of a rather painful character and description; but I have come here to-night, gentlemen, with the full assurance, after passing through many of your wards, that I am required to hold @ final in quest upon the body of the Know Nothing party. (Cheers and laughter.) By this party | have been consideratty abused for the last twelve months. (That's so.) T hap. pen decidedly to be what is called « foreigner; Dut Iam in porsession of as pure and sincere @ democratic heart as any man throughout this vast assemblage. (Cheers. ) IT have watched the actions of this party, I have e 1 them through the columns of my paper and thi the avenue of my tongue wherever I could raise it ‘within the precincts of the city and county of New York, and f trust that have, as one democrat, contributed to slay for ever that accuteed party called the Know Nothings. (With great emphasis, increased by cheers.) Mr. @exer here interrupted the speaker to announce some partial returns from the Fourteenth ward, indicat ing «large democratic majority. ‘The announcement was {ellowed by loud and continued cheers. The full returns from the Eleventh ward, with 1,063 for Wood, were an- nonneed amid loud cheers, Alderman Clancy arrived aleo at this time with the correct returns from the Sixth ‘ard, with a majority of 1,900 for Wood. When the cMecrs for the Sixth bad subsided Coroner Connery re- sumed— Fellow democrate, (he said,) Tassure yoo that T have often felt a particular delight in lietening to the melodies of my country’s song bag nothing in the World appears more melodious to my olf heart than the annonncement (CONTINUED ON EIGHTH PAGE.)
