Op coming forward to address the meeting he was loudly cheered. He said that the resolutions they had just heard read bad received their approving voices, He was pleased at the selection of their ticket for State, county and city officers; and he undertook to say that while tbey approved by their voices they would elect by their votes. (Cheers), And while this was impor- tant, in order that they should get possession of the State government and reform the abuses thap existed there, that was but a part of their duty, and tbat nos the largest part of it, Witbin five days from that bour ‘The democratic spirit of the city of New York found Dttng scope for ebullition on the occasion of the mon- ster g meeting held last evening, convened for the purpose of ratifying the democratic State and county Uckets, Since the good old time of political war before the rebellion there has been no event, with the excep- tien of the popular uprising in Union square when the call toarms first resounded throughout the land, | they would be ‘Watening to the returns that that bas been marked with such an enthusiastic popu- | would ancennes - spol barrel had been the . demonstrat ‘evenin; decision New Yor! © great national = sx eso The doors of | Cvestions that had deen presented in. this Cooper Institute were beseiged at an early hour im the evening, and when on tast the police gave way to the rush al+ the opening of the @oors, they were carried into the building with the resistless tide that mmedtately flowed into the building and in a few moments filled it in every part.

With jection, Aad much, very much, in reference to that decision depended on what New York would do, The question throughout the State was what would lew York do, Would it once more give the majority it gave its favorite son, Hofman? (Cheers.) And th would add to that by counting one thousand for every ten, and then they would have done their duty.

The rebels had laid down tneir arms—they were conquered. They furled every tattered flag that they had borne too often in victory, and went to their homes, or the places where they once were, and men appointed to addreas the meeting had time afforded. In numbers only, however, was the meeting imposing or influential, There were none of the big guns that used to speak through the political campaigns in the old times; no array of the Grand Sachems of ‘tammany which erat ruled the fierce democracy; none of the popular leaders whose eloquence formerly thrilled the masses when they met tn council on the political affairs of the country.

Can these things be allowed without arousing the blood of freemen? Why has this been done? Why is it that this sad epectacio is forced opom us in the nineteenth contury? In our schoolboy days we read over the story of Poland. But as few short years othe wail and funeral shout of murdered Hungary convulsed this continent and causod the name of Austria to be hateful to the ears of ail civilized naiious. The perverted spirit of Insh liberty walks the earth now at ail hours, and iv all the four quarters of the earth, for- ever pointing to Engiand as the odious assassin of a peo- ple worthy to be free. (Appiause.) But at our own doors, on our own soil and beneath our own flag, and I can say it without exaggeration, lies a country beside whose condition Poland, Hungary and Ireland are the radiant homes of happy freemen; at our own doors ex- {ets a despotism beside which the worst tyranny of the Old World becomes a respectable and liberal form of gov- (Cries of ‘That's so,” and “You are.right,”” and applause.) “ome one is perbaps ready to say, “This Woves not me, for this, like a biting plague, lies not upon me.and mine, bul im th mathern le, who took arma agninat the That is the meanest of all raplies; it is But let me answer it, You, too, cannot escape, this hres enim pea eas, ‘and while it je poss eelay r simply ie ng And prostrate way- side, the radical priest and Levite pass by Satie of his groans.

A wand committee of Congress now travels the country at the public expense to inquire whether certain States have a republican form of gov- ernment, and if not, with a standing army at their back, to entorce their will and pleasure. They are now at work at the home and over the grave of Henry Clay, in Kentneky, at the home of Pinckney, in Marylaud— jaryland, born of the revolution—to determine whether those children of Washington are republican in their form of government. And yet the public mind, strangely and fatally blind, is not shocked by these stupendous outrages. Whose turn comes next? Is it far-distant and glorious California, with her tiara of golden jewels and, brighter still than golden jewels, her tiara of conservative victory on her brow? or is it to bo Ohio or Pennayivania or the Empire State? This Congressional scheme of destruction cailed’ re- construction has its logic as well as other schemes, The black man, by the act of reconstruction, has become a voter throughout the South, and for that purpose alone institutions have been overturned, your republic dismembered, States kept out of the Union and thrust away from your embrace, All this has been done for the purpose of adding some six hundred thousand biack votes to the radical ballot, whereby to contro! Congress and elect President. That is the solution of this thing. Six hundred thousand blacks have been made voters and nearly @ million whitee are disfranchisea. Let us see what result inevit- ably follows this thing, First, liberty and all the insti- tutions of republican government destroyed. . Next, the black race dominant in every State in the South. The last few weeks present an appalling and startling spectacle in that direction. Even where, as in Virginia and the whites are in ajority by the registration, a fraudulent apportionment gives the black man 8 majority in the constitutional conventions, ‘the result isthe frightful, ghastly, aod appalling fact that from the waters of the Chesapeake way off to the mouth of the Rio Grande, from the tide ‘ters of Virginia to the broad plains of Texas, the African cegro reigns supreme.

Would impeaching the Presideat of the North tend to allay the bad feeting in North and South ? The labor of the country was pledged to pay the national debt, and it must be paid, and there would be no diffi. culty in paying’t if the government of the United States ceased to be what it was Insane goverament, If they went to work and encouraged emigration and labored industriously the debt would be paid. They should get the South to aid them in paying tho debt. Where were the rice and cotton and the sugar, that grew in the South-and that added much to the national wealth? They were goue, because the men who knew bow to grow the soed were cowering lest their throats might cut by the blacks, who were now excited inst thom.

Lying close at your side, and proud of you as one of the noblest of her sister States, she fondly choris! the memories of our mu- tual struggles and mutual victories in defence of our common heritage; and she aap you, by all these memories, to finish the work which she so gloriousiy began in April last, We are justly proud of the history of our own State, and remember that the leader of the little band that defied the hosts of Britain on Bunker was General Putnam, of Connecticut ; and we reme! ber, toe. that in the war of 1812 the commander of the old frigate Constitution, that gave us our first victory on the was Commodore Hull, of Connecticut, (Cheers.) You bave not forgotten that in this great contest in which we are now engaged the flag that first waved in victory over the deceived and deceiving radicals was vias by Governor James E. English, of Connectic (Cheora,) We. all derived new inspiration from wi noble motto of that flag, ‘ Qui transfult sustinet;” and we doubt not that yon will catch up our shout of faith and triumpb, and echo back, ‘Excelsior!’ You, my fellow citizens, are in a tew days to decide whether you are truly worthy of the mheritance to do to set trade upon ployment to they? bequeathed to you by your fathers—whether the Union sball bo saved, the constitution vindicated and the whole people shall rejotce in the peace, fraternity and prosperity of which they were rovbed by civil war apd are now deprived by revolutionary and unchristian legislation. I stand before you as a couservative of Con- necticut; not ove of the sort that I know of, not many miles away, who, with all their protesta, are yet willing to brush the radical boots, carry the radical baggace and even trot under the radical wagon. I was a republican until that party became radicalized ander the mantpula- tions of Messrs.

Are we atill united country? Ten States, as loyal now as Now York or Connecticut, are refused representation in Congress, violation of the plainest provisioas of the constitu- tion, and it ie ‘admitted by the chief radical leader that, there is no warrant in that instrument for such daring usurpation. He urges in justification of this outrage the plea of all tyrants, uamely—“public necessity.” We are charged, on the other band, with sundry misde- meanors; but chiefly with threatening repudiation.
