Long before the hour appointed for the meeting every corner of the room was densely packed, the ladies occupying front seats. A fine prass band was in attendance and dis- coursed at intervals patriotic airs, When Mr. CHARLES 8, SPENCER appeared on the platform he was greeted with loud cheering. He said that he did not expect that the telegraphic re- turns would be received for an hour, during which time a number of short speeches would be made. It had been his good fortune to initiate the proceedi: of Unton republican meetings in that hall, a he never arose to initiate the proctedings of a meet- ing laboring under so great and painful anxiety as he did on that occasion. The result of the elections in Nebraska, Indiana, Ohio and Pennsylvania would decide whether the Union republicans of this coyn- try were to walk forth from to-day until the day of the Presidential election upon a pathway of rosea or of thorns. He believed it would be a pathway of roses. (A voice, “Amen.”) But if, contrary to their it should be a pathway of thorns they would tread it resolutely, bravely and with confl- dence and hope, and upon it they would reach vic- tory.

Farragut’s Reception in Constantinople Turkish Oficial Visit to the Franklin= Address from the Greeks—Reply of the Admiral—Denth and Burial of a United States Sailor, CONSTANTINOPLE, August 31, 1868, While the appearance of the Franklin, with her renowned Admiral and the distinguished officers of Lis staff at the Turkish capita! was an event that in- terested all classes of the population here, it seemed to infuse the most enthusiastic joy into the Greek residents of Constantinople. They seemed to look upon Admiral Farragut as @ guardian angel. come among them, and nothing would convince them that ‘he was not expressly sent by his government for the Purpose of interfering between them and the Porte, Particularly as regarda the affairs of Crete, ‘The visits of the Grand Vizier, Fuad Pacha, and the Grand Chamberlain of the Sultan on Thursday last were characterized by the cordial reception and honors extended them by the Admiral and the exchange of friendly sentiments on both sides. The Admiral reminded the Turkish officials of the grati- tude felt by his government to the Sultan for the prompt manner ia which he had decided at the com- mencement of the rebellion to forbid the Confederate gruisers the entry into his ports, and concluded by expressing the wish that ere long a Turkish man-of- war might visit the United States, when an oppor- tunity would be given to reciprocate the attentions received by the oMicers of the Franklin during her stay here. Immediately after the departure of the high Turkish oMictals a deputation from the Greek com- munity of Constantinople called upon the Admiral, who received them with his characteristic courtesy. The Greeks came armed with an address, which was read to the Admiral and his staff by Mr. Samartiades, editor of the Zptalophos (a paper published here), of which the following is a copy:— Gallant Admiral and crew of the United States frigate Franklin, welcome to Constantinople. ‘he illustrious name of Franklin has ‘Cuitiuslastt- cally impressed the Greeks of Conatantinople, and the stars and stripes of liberty’s own flag waving over these waters has filled thelr hearts with Iex- preasible joy, being for them, as for all the oppressed, z symbol 01 ‘the forthcoming fall of slavery and the consolidation of true abet: The Greexs of this capital, full of gratitude for all the great republic did in favor of thelr brethrea from 1821 to 1980, ag well ax tho humane and gencrous assistance rendered their Cretan breturen (now for two years saffering and courrageously fighting for their independence) by the government and the citl- zens of the United States, hasten to grect you with fraternal affection and to express to you and through you to the American people their deep sense of g ara l~ tude. May God grant that the Americar the Greek nations may one day rejoice over tt tion of this historical country in the same manner as all adorers of Ilberty throughout the world have hailed the quelling of the rebellion and the downfall of siavery in the United States, to which you, fllus- trious Admiral, have so powerfully contributed through ee ‘personal bravery and skill. ue iver erican nation! Long live the Gree! nat! Every one will be impressed with the fact that this demonstration would have been less inappropri- ate at Athens than at Constantinople; but addressed as it was to the chief officer of the navy of a nontral Power, it would have been in bad taste even at the Greek capital. As it was addressed to the com- mander of a foreign ship lying in the Bosphorus, almost under the windows of the imperial palace. it could be considered but little leas than treasonable towards the Porte and compromising to the Ame- ricaps, pnd would only tend to injure the Greek cause in the estimation of the latter. It 1s proba- bie that the Turkish government took much the same view of the Greek address as President Lincoin would have done had a party of Northern sree. thizers with the South assembled board an E Breen or mem man-of-war in New York haroor ed an address to the commander, thank- is government and people for aid and sympa- iy sendy 4 extended to the South and asking for its one No admmral, although taken by surprise at the tenor of the address, reminded the delegation that_his errand here was _ no — Leeman one; mee bila ever aid or sympathy a portion of the American might see ‘at wextend to the Greeks the ‘oxinting re lations between the United Sta'es and Turkey are of the most friendly nature, and it is no pion § of the poucy of the ene States or its naval oilicers abroad way interfere in international mnestions between Turkey and Greece or any other uropean Powers. The Admiral then with his usual urbanity invited them to take a look over the ship, [ee ich took their leave. This visit, ag I fore remarked, took place on Thursday afternoon.
