Yesterday they enjoyed them- selves to their hearts’ content, from the firing of cannon fm the city Park to the diacharze of less noisy artillery, im the shape of speeches, at the Tammany headquarters in East Sixteenth street, which were thronged last even- ing with an enthumastic gathering of local politicians apé their followers and hangers on, who are epposed to the radical ticket, The meeting at Tammany headquarters was called together by the following apnouncement, which was exten- sively piacarded and advertised in the afternoon of yesterday :—‘Obio! Pennsylvania! Victory! Demo- crats, meet to-night, Weduesday. Eighto’clock. John T. Hoffman, Richard O'Gorman, James Brooks, & 8. Cox and many others will congratulate the democracy on the glorious victories recently achieved.” In obedience to this notice, which promised a display of oratorical artillery to the jubilant multitude, crowds wended their to the Wigwam, and, while they were waiting for admission to the presence of the Grand Sachem and Sachems, and tho other representatives of Tammany rule, they indalged in those witticisms and repartees that are peculiar to and almost inseparable from popular meetings and demonstrations of this Kind. A burly fellow with cropped hair, wide pants, thick coat, thicker neck, stumpy nose, and weariog a heavy ring which he os- ten!atiously displayed, took occasion to “guess that this was the d——at licking the rads ever got,"’ and that, be- fore it was all over with thom, ‘they would be squeezed aa flat as a piece of tin in 2 vice—!aid out so that no one on the wide earth would know them.”’ “I bel: ” ob- served a politician, with a determined look, it they are going to bust up like tho national banks the chief men of their party have been érying to sustain, and that they hi gotacheck which dishonors them and isa great gain to us.’ ‘We don’t hate the nizgers,”’ said an- other, “but we don’t want to mix with them. Let them have achance to get on if they are able; but for my part I like what that fellow said in Philadelphia when he cried out, ‘This is still a white man’s coun- try,’ and we ought not to bavea government of nig- gers. Niggers aint the thing, you see. They caused us jeal of trouble, and the difficulty aint over yet. Buta few more such elections ae those in Ponnsylvapia and Obio, and it will be all up with the rads, who are out of temper now, and not able to hide their indiznation.’? “Do you know,” said a man with a strong Southern accent, “what we are going to do ifthe rads insist on forcing their policy on us?” “What?” was the gen- eral question put to the speaker, ‘‘I’ll tell ye,” he re- plied; “we'll give them a large dose of their own The moment we are in a position to do e ignoran a we can find, \an having done this, we'll just ask. the rads, ‘Is tha the thing you want?’ and I'll bet you they’ll say “Bully for you,” uttered several voices, de- in the same . “them cannon in celebration hall, the scene was not quite so exciting as Presented outside, its peculiarity, however, was the enthusiasm with which all reference by the speaker to the late radical defeate, and the rising of the country, as be ge by thease defeate, against nigger rule, was Teceivec. Shara after cight o'clock, the chair was taken by Mr, EB 8B. Hart, who, after @ fev introductory stated that the meeting would be addressed by Mayor ‘Hoffman. Mayor Horruan then spoke a; some length on the cir- cumstances that had given nse to the present demon- stration, Mr, Hoffman’made « remark that the Ghief Justice of the United State> ¢2d not gain much by going to Ohio, when A Votcr called out, in stentorian tones—*He is afraid to try Mr. Jefferson Davis.” (Cheers. ) The Ca1kman said be bad much pleasure in iutroduc- ing Mr, John Collins, REMARKS BY MR, COLLINS. ‘Mr. CoLLixs said he was not an eloquent or a wise man, lke 8, 8. Cox, por a map, like John T. Hoffman, who wasin a d—-d place. (Laugbter.) He (the speaker) was not in any way disposed to keep in power the meu who wanted to give political superiority to the negro, It was not conservatism that won the victory in Pennsylvania and Onto, but radical democracy, which was opposed to radical wrong, ‘hey should op- pore radical wrong with radical right, This wasa white man’s government, and he did not believe in the logic ‘that black men were to be his rulers, Referring to radi- cal legisiation, he maintained that there bad been more vice in the city of New York since the passage of tho Excise law than ever there was before. The people could not be legisiated into virtue. While the speaker was proceeding in this strain he was interrupted with cries of “Hall, Oakey t/all,’’ “Time is up,” &e. SPERCH OF MR, A. OAKEY WALI, Mr. A. Oaxery Hatt was then introduced amid loud cheers, He said he had received an invitation to meet a few friends that evening, to exchange congratulations on as much of the news as the radical workers would pe: mit to pass Over the wires, (Laughter). The street wi filled with their friends and his enemies he supposed, Laughter). The rad.cals saidjit was very chilly weather. ey went about Broadway with overcoats, and cotton stuffed in their ears, (A voice—They did not want to hear the news—iaughter). Mr. Haut then introduced to the notice of the meet- Ing certain statements in ‘Forney’s Press (the audience hissing the name of the paper), respecting the election in Pennsylvania, In one of those statements the demo crats were denounced as gutity and tue prospects of the radicals reported as good, while in a second jon of the same paper their prospects were pronounced as not quite to good a8 announced in the first edition; and he lad no doubt that if a third edition of the jouraal came to band, the prospects’of the radicals would be stated therein as still less encouraging. Turning to the amuse- ment column of the same paper, he observed that be saw they were playing tne Gamester in one of the Philadelphia theatres while this great contest had been going on; and this reminded bim to tay that if ever men deserved to bave the term gamoster applied to thom, it was ths radicals who bad gambled with the dearest interests of America. He pointed out the difficulties the democrats bad in the contest in Pennsylvania, fighting, as he said they did, against $200,000 lovied as contribution: the two hun- dred national banks in the State, Wi jas done with all that money probably Forney could tell. He com- mented ia &@ humorous manner vpon tho sames of per- sons who had assembled in Philadelphia to sustain the radical cause, Among these, said Mr. Hall, was the Hon, Mr, Biaine, of Maine—a cold Blain regular chil-Blaine, (Roars of laughter), The great Apostie of negro suffrage hed been crucified on his own cross on his own soil, (Cheers.) He asked for three cheers for the money-defying democrats of Pennsylvania and Ohio. (Cheers ) SPEECH OF MR. & J. TILDEX, Mr. & J. Truvew was the next speaker, liked an imprompta speech, but imprompta victory, like that of Oaio; nobody expected aiways observed that when tle tide rose it rose came there to look in the face of the democrats ai if they would consent to vive up their rightful position in the coming contest. (Loud crits of “No, no.”") They bad to raise the coun- try from the misrule that pervaded it, Ihey must redeem the country from the heavy burden of taxation which pressed #0 severely on every laborer that out of every sx days’ labor he had to give the is of @ day and a belt's labor to the tax gatherer. The rad having proved themscives unit to govern the country, the democrats should adv: the dury ot saving it, and be trusted that it wi main for New Yark to give the finish mrsruie of the radical party.

Scenes About Town—The Crowd and Execite- ment at the Ciy Mail—One Hundred Guns for the Demecratic Victory—The Evening at b. The politicians of the jower wards of the city were yesterday all on the qui vive, Pennsylvania had ‘gone democratic,’ and loud was the gratulation thereof among the Sachems of Tammuny, the members of the Mozart and Manbattan associations, and the various hangers on and political loafers, who ape the joys and sorrows of their betters, and are always to be foun the side that has the appearance of winning. Early in the morning even there appeared to be some ‘unusual stir in the city, and this movement was gradu- ally developed as the day wore on. At the different ferries the matutinal journalejwere in constant demand, and the election returns from the provinces were scanned by hundreds of eager eyes who were downcast or jubilant over the news from the good old Keystone ‘State as the case might be and as their principles ran. “Yes, suree! I told you so; the dimocrats is bound to win,” you heard an enthusiastic partisan assert in vehement terms to a friend who belonged to the other side. But the republican was not put out; md, not he. He only oe with asmile— “* Wait till November, friend; perhaps I'll tell thee shen a tale,” By twelve o'clock the excitement amongst a portion of our enlightened fellow citizens had growu to be intense, The first edition of the Evening Teleyam was watched for with the utmost anxiety, and when tho cry was that Pennsylvania still gained the dem y farly bubbied over with irrepressible glee, The City Fathers shared the joy of their hopeful and hoping progeny, and anon there began to be a bustle around and withia the sacred precincts of the City Hail Park. The flag that has waved a thousand breezes still waved; and presevtly a and movements of the metropolis The crowd sull grew and grew, until, like “the old woman who lived in a shoe,” it bogan to fill more apace Ahan its proper limits, and the thoroughfare and side- walks of the adjacent square, as it is called, commenced to be crowded |. ise, The offices of the papers were bosieged for news, and thi ger beer establishments of Nassau street and the Bowery drew large custom. The democrats, however, wero not going to content them- selves with a mute expression of their satisfaction. They were ‘bound to seo the thing out’ in some more striking mode, and accordingly a salvo of one huodred guns was resolved upon, A small howitzer was placed at the foot of Washington's statue in tho park, and the salute com- menced shortly after two o’clock and lasted until long after three, The efligy of tne eoldier patriot—sup; to be Washington—was also pressed Into the service of the victorious Tammanyites, and a huge placard, inscribed with the thrilling announcement, “Democratic General Committee,” was slung around his neck and rested in front of bis ‘waistcoat, making the Father of our Country look ike an advertising agent or a sandwich" man, enclosed between two fosters, although not actually within the sheots. Around the cannon at the decorated statue hundreds of politicians, loafers, street gamios and all the of polloiof the city we gathered, and # rapturous cheer greeted each notetrom the brazen throated speaker, Then littlo knota of men began to circle off and form select little coteries of their own on the plaza in front of the ball—deep, deep politicians, men well up in the secrets of the organization and familiar with every patty move. They talked and they talked until all was dry, and recourse had to be had tq some- thing which made them see more clearly, and at all events feel more jollily. At the Astor House, too, in the lobby, on the stairs and in the different waiting rooms, there were many guesis assembled who talked democracy, and used their toothpicks with the most charming air and nonchalance, us looked the crowd from morn until the sun began fra Jow in the heavens. Soon after four the politicians dis- persed from the City Hall and its precincis and bore to other quarters the triumphant pews of the Pennsylvania yictory, By five o'clock, save the additional anxiety there was to purchase the evyoning rons-c, she czcite- mont had 2! cleared Off dnd ihe Growd fad The unexpected democratic victory In Pennsylvania and the surprising gains.1n Obio and other States were also an absorbing subject of discussion throughout the entire length of the city yesterday. The ordinary salu- morning,”’ or ‘How do you do’! was re- the greeting, jn a familiar way, “How about ania ?’’ And wherever friends or acquaintances lection was tbe whole burden of their conver The prevailing sentiment—that among democrats—was one of glorification, men ordinarily demeanor of the most sober staid seemed with difficulty to restrain themselves from flinging their hats in the air and executing undig- nifled terpsichorean feats expressive of the highest ecstacy. ‘herever two or three were collected earnest and demonstrative discussion was had, and little knots or coteries thus envaged were distributed all over the city, at tbe various corners and in front of numerous Niquor stores. One enthusiastic individual was so over- come by the intelligence which from time to time he gathered from an ing Telegram he held iv his band al referred to at intervals, as though taking the news im in small doses ‘for fear of dangerous consequences, as he stood in front of a well known liquor store on Nassau street, near the Post Otfice, that he asked everybody to drink with him irrespective of their condition or the utter str@mgers they were to him. His constant comment as he reached an understanding of the news was ‘This is too good’’ and his invariable sequitur ‘Come and take a drink.’’ Demo- cratic succes are always more or less connected with whiskey, and the occasion yesterday was no exception im that particular. More than the ordinary consumption of this dangerous fluid resulted from the excited condi. tion in which the great democratic heart of thisgity was thrown by the ¢from Pennsylvania, The old argu- ment, “As goes Pennayivania so goes the Uniov,” was in constant repetition, and hundreds of men who had never, perbaps, before given that credit, reterred to the scene of the great democratic victory as the “Keystone State,” the barrooms throughout the city were generally well patronized, and the chances, past, present and future, of the democratic party were discussed in hundreds of places over numeroas glasses of various kinds and qualities, The rejoicing was, how. ever, not altogether confined to mere individual exhidi- tion, The societies, clubs, committees and other recog- nized organs of the party met and celebrated the day’s success with much spirit and éclat, At the rooms of the Maobattan Club last night there was a more than ordinary attendance, and “grave and “reverend seignears,"’ who seldom awaken to a recogni- tion of current events. were there discussing in eaver tones “ihe returps’’ or exchanging speculations concerning the future. Great comiort was derived in the assurance generally felt and expressed that “New York would go democratic’ at the next election; and the quid nuns declared, with an arithmetical accuracy very creditabie to their early teachers, the precise ma- jority which each candidate would have, and its com- parison with previous elections. Others of them con- tented themselves with lounging about the root list ristocratic way, #ipping an occasional glass of sherry aud commenting in a languid manner upon the result Mozart rejoiced, as did also the Democratic Union party, that is, the rank and file of these organizations did, There was, howevor, no indication of eny demonstration atthe oeadquarters of either organization last night, their usual place of merting being completely shroude: in darkness, Tammany was the only beadquarters which came out strong on the occasion, and in the mass meeting gave free expression to the exuitation with which she was possessed. The German City Prens je Elect! The Staale-Zeitung (democratic), in reference to the elections on Tuesday, say: There if no doubt that in Ohio the negro suffrage amendment to the constitution has been rejected—a heavy blow, but sound teaching for that inconsiderate party which by insults to the white population reeks to enforce negro suffrage. Our predictions as to the conae- quences resulting for the colored population from their radical friends, it appears, will be fulfilled, The Abend- Zeitung (republican) argues that the Gefeat of the republican party in the three Stases mentioned is a victory of the German vote in opposition to the Puri- tan element in the republican party.

Wasutveton, Oct. 9, 1867 ) 11:30 o'Clock P.M. f One remarkable feature in the manner the repuoli- cans here receive the election news from Ohio, is tho coincidence of their views as to the cause of their defeat. All the bi 8 laid upon the anendment to the State constitution, One prominent radical was heard to claim, ‘That unfortunate amendment, In its fall it has tora down with it the repubiican party.” An- other said that negro suffrage was rapidly drifting towards breakers, and the republican party ought to savo iivelf by cutting loose from the wreck, Most of ihe radicals, however, accept the roverse with great good humor, although evidentiy greatly astounded by the magnitude of the defeat, which seoms to havo been totally unexpected to even those potiticians who are best informed. The attempt of those, who fur- nistied a large proportion of tho despatches announcing the progress of the elegtions im Pennsylvania and Obio, to identify the present democratic party with the oid dituniom coppertead party, by alluding to to the republican party as the union party «met wilh severe condemnation faniong many of the conservative republicans bere.

Ristori’s Marie Aptoineite is the most successful and Popuiar piece of acing with all classes of thexiregoers that the great tragédienno has ever brought before the American pablic, It unites the legitimate acd sensational rama in am admirable manner, and has for its subject the most thrilling romance of history, the dark days of the French Revolution and the sad history of the most unfortunate of queena, The drama is crowded with incidents and effective situations «nd needs not tho long, exhaustive dialogye whieh Gincometti bas infused into, It might be éasily and without in- jury condensed into half its prevent proportions.

Tho intrigues of this court and the beautiful domestic scenes in the unhappy Capet family are intero-ting of themselves; but witb the terrible background of the sans culties 'thoy enchain the attention of the auditor more than any other ploy we bave seen this season. The sans culo ies, however, ought not tobe dressed in immaculate cos:umes and armed with batcheis and knives fresh from the hard. ware store. Such incongruitica mar the effect and in. Verest consequent on the magnificent acting of the main characters, Banvard’s Opera How The Devil’s Auction is an unquestionable snecese At its stockboard the bide must bo reported higher every night, Last wight the Hungarian polka, by Augusta Sihjke, would alone have kept the quotations up to the highest figure, and the superb dancing of Eliza Biasina, Eugenia Lupo, Giovanni Lupo, Ermesilda Diani, Aurelia Ricci and Carlotta Lapointe confirmed our impression that the Devil’s Auction dates anew epoch in the history of the ballot in this country, This rare combjnation.of superior dancers enables us to com- iré aud admire the 8 at once of the classical Italian, ‘rench and German schools, In a few days, moreover, we shall have an opportunity of applauding the cele- brated Giusepfina Morlacchi, whose arrival on Tuesday was welcomed by an enthusiastic ovation. The triumphs of Signorina Morlacchi in Genoa, Turin, Perugia, Lon- don (where she was the chief attraction at Her Majesty's Theat uring six successive seasons) in Modena. Lis. bon, Marseilies, Berlin, London again, Turi and Rome, have established for a European reputation, Fresh spectacular effects are in preparation, which will render the Devil’s Auction still more attractive, It isa pity that so much of the dialogue of this, as of every other spectacular drama should beof a trashy description. Nonsense has its value, uo doubt, but wit and humor might as advantageously be employed to fill up the intervals between the chances in the scenes, The burden of what little acting is required in the Devil's Auction falls chiefly upon Miss Fanny Stocqueler, who admirably sustains her Protean role, and upon Mr. Robert McWade, who also ‘acts weil his port.” The rank and fie of the ballet company nightly improve in their evolutions, But the main ai- traction of the Devil's Auction is the dancing of the Principal performers, Last evening we were not sur- prised to see among the spectators several of our emi- pent New York artists, who remember that the painters and sculptors of ancient Greece deemed their time well employed in studying and designing the attitudes of tho Dublic dancers. It is not improbable that our populi tandard of beauty and grace will be elevated by thi {matation of (he spectacaiar drama and the ballet in nerica, and that here, as in Greece, the physical ap- yerance of the people will consequently be improved, The Bi grand ballet of the Black Crook still draws crowded «© The idea of introducing this spectacular drama © United States was a happy one and ind catesa adgment of human nature, Ail the religious » to see it on account of the transformation the rest of our population help crowd the >a occount of the gentle and voluptuous influence the sensea, The constant change from mirin act—from Paradise to the infernal oe fitting forms of nimble dancers; »* and very changing scenery; the ' ", as it were, of the time ina constant Ment, alt thor give the Black Crook ‘success which has atiended its ta. vew dongey scene is an additional valu- 90 well acted that 1t might cause a reat @ head to see how near the human We think, however, that the bar- ‘ight woll be omitted.

Bishop Southgate announced to the audience tne name of the Rev. Dr. Littlejohn, of Brooklyn. who made a brief and textless address, s:ttine forth the importance of the Pacific Mission cause, He thought the gravity of the occasion could not be overestimated; and while there was tidal flux from the East, North and south to the far West—the West stil westward of the Rocky Mountains—he could seo no reason why God's bus- bandmen should prove recreant to their duty and leave the vast feid of Pacific slope uncuitured. If they could not precede civilization, they could at Jeast follow and sanctify it witn their labors— they could at jeast send forward pioneers who should clear the ground for future parisacs and lay, as it were, the foundation of 1uture houses dedicated to God.

This system bai beea adopted in Northera Europe with marked success, was tue Apostolical system, and ought to prevail universally, ifthe utmost eificiency was an object to be secured. ‘The speaker concluded with complimentary rewarks concerning the capacity and faithfulness of the pro- of the enterprise, and was followed by the Rov, Dr. Tyna, who descanted at some leogth upon the hard- ships endured by missivnaries in general and the com- paratively scanty support accorded to them. They travelled through snow and sleet and rain, ofien sleeping in the open air under the friendly sheiter of @ foreat tree, while those who wore proseut loiled on downy beds tu luxuriously furnisted apart~ us, The speaker pursued this line of argument with erable variety of illustration, and baving con- jed bis remarks was followed by the Rev.

(From the Evening Telegram of yesterday.] The late uateh between Mike MeCoole and Aaron Joves has been the means of ratsing the former in the esti- mation of the pugilistic ring toguch an extent that he flads no difficulty in obtamiog any Bumber of backers, many of whom ave eager to see him meet again the champion of America, Joo Coburn, For a long time shore have been rumors in circulation to the effect that Mr, MeCoole had forwarded a challenge to Coburn, but it Reems that tere Lax ween Do foundation for such re- ports unti! during the past wo days, when Coburn was wivew to undersiand tuat be might loog for an official document froia dc Joule duting the comiug week, Qu number have been under the im| jon that Coburn did not care about meeting McCoole, and it has been geveraliy supposed thas he was rather desirous of avoiding bim if posrivie, Tais, however, is not the cave, Coburn bas already met McCoole in the ming, and knows weil bis quaiitications as a Dyhter; be does in no way underestimate him. Ou the Keres it is said that Coburn ts ready to make a deposit as high as $2.000 to fight for $5 090 to $10,000 a side; and should McCoole feel so disposed he has only to send out his chal- lenge. According Ww privace advices the St. Louis list will be beara from uext week. Coburm claims the right of naming the amount of stakes and choosteg the fignting ground, but Mike #ili probably be foued egree- able on each of these points, since be has plenty of Money at command and desires above all things to have one more chance with Joe, The Alico and Ryall Match. {From the Evening Telegram of yesterday.) The sudden aod somewhat unexpected challenge from the English pagtlist, Tom Allen, has taken considerable of the sports of the ring aback im this city, especially #ince be has mado eo broad a ep as to challenge any man in this country. Since bis arrival bere, and during his tour through several of our leading ities, ho bas met with so many admirers that be rather flatters himself that he can cope witb the best of the rivg in America, not barring Heenan, Coburn, or even Morrissey, if the mite could only be induced to enter the mug once Alien has only been in this country abovt three | | In rep Months, during which time he, together with Bill Ryall, Who caine Over about two weoks vetore, aud Jimmy Mor- ris, the English champion of light weights, has been giving public exbibijions th Eastern and Middle States, ing a few of ec our Yankee grecnbacks, which Allen has taken good care to preserve, while bis associates have been free to dispose of them among those that bid them a hearty welcome here, Allev and Ryall have had several exhibitions together, during which time Allen, it seems, hus always taken occasion to prociaim his superiority over Ryall. Having concluded to make this country his heme, although he declines to take out bis papers, he tssued a chatlenge which evidently goos to show that the newly arrived English boxer is open to make a match with the best our market can afford in the pugil stic line. Finally, on the 28th ult,, Allen issued a challenge from Paitimore, offering to fight any maa in this country for $1,000 or $2,000 4 side, Yeutorday Ryall, who resides Jn this city, iesued a card in answer aud deposited $250 ia the hands of a well known sportiug man to make a match ut catch weight for either of the sums pamed in the challenge. Tbis watch has occasioned considerabio stir among sporting circles, aud tho meeting of the two English pugs is anticipated with delight. Con Orem Matched Ag [From the Evening Teiegram of yesterday.) This noted pugiliss has matehbed himself w fight Jimmy Dwyer, a brother of Bill Dwyer, who fought Chandler, for $400 a side, to come off on the 25th of this month, at Virginia City, Montana, The fight is'sald to be for the middie weight championship Con is a hard figbter, and bad mapy admirers when here in th.s city; but he has rather a bulldog way of fighting. He will, however, prove himself a bard out for Dwyer to crack. The Sheppard and Aaron Match OW. (From the Evening Telegram of yesterday.) It scema that the contemplated match between these two feather weight fighters has for the present become « dead letter, owing to their baing unable to agree. Patsey came all the way from St. Louis and met Barney on Saturday last and agreed to fight bim at 120 pounds for $1,000, within fifty miles of Cincinnati or at St. Louis, and to fight in three months from signing articles of agreement. Aaron, however, refased to fight for $1,000, stating that bis backer would not cover him short of $2,000; that he had already accommodated others and now be wanted matters a little bis own way. As Shep- pard could not meet the required amount at present the fight was declared off, but from latest accounts there is no doubt that as soon as Sheppard returus home he will Taise the whorewithal and meot Aaren on his own terme. THE QUICK TAYSAGE CONTROVERSY. TO THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD. OxxenaL TraxsaTLantic Comrany, 58 Broapway, New You, Oct. 9, 1867. Captain Comstock says that there are two important errors in my note on this subject, namely, “that tho Pereire’s latest passage was under nine days, and tho quickest on record,” The time stated was eight days twenty-two hours, which should hare been one hour Jess, in point of fact, according to the usual mode of computation The difference between apparent and mean time was his reckoning, not mine. On referring to a record of ihe Pereire's passages, 1 app ara Novom- ber of last year (he runs were made each time in eight days twenty-two hours; and in July of the present year her time eastward was cight days twenty and a half hours, the difference of longisude being computed, The Adriatic’s passages, of which Captain Comstock are at this date go aptediluvian chat one may be ing thoughuessty overlooked them; but it appears that a record of them has been made (some- where) even to three minutes. No ‘jolly veteran of the sea’? 18 more respected in this community than Captain Comawck, whom tho wrier of this should bs the last to essay in word or deed to deprive unjneuy of the palm of victory as a competitor in a rare for quick passages on the Atlantic, I will only add, Mnally, “let bygoues be bygones,” and let the competitors try again. ibe Fereire and the Ville de Maris, at least, are ready.
