Not aa iach of standing room was vacant for a moment from the commencement of the meeting to its close, | and is was exceedingly diMcult for those whose @uties required them to move about to squecze , through the earnest and compact crowd. Over the platform the significant legend was spread on can- | vasa “WHAT WE ARE GOING TO DO ABOUT IT,” : ana around the supporting pillars were grace- | fully @ntwined Stave and national fags. There | was no music, but the audience did not | require the sumulus of sounding brass and tinkling eymbals. On the platform were the following gamed gentiemen:—Cyrus W. Field, General John A. Dix, Samuel J. Tilden, S. B. Cnittenden, General Jackson, W. M. Evaris, Andrew W. Green, Major J. | M. Bundy, Colonel Henry G, Stebbins, Father Far- | relley, Colonel N.

Choate, Isaac H, Batley, Judge Barrett, Jackson 8. Schultz, Peter Cooper, Henry L. Clinton, William F, Have- meyer, Dr. Hepworth, Henry E. Crampton, Jonn Foley, and a host of other distinguished and well known citizens, The cothusiasm was on- | bounded, and each and every attack by the | speakers on tie membera of the Hing evoxed sumuituous cheering. Mr. Choate, who followed ‘she Chairman, Colonel Steobins, put the meeting in the best of good humor by reading the follow- | tag most solemn anuouncement previous to his | ba specc: “I am requested to state that the political funeral of William M. Tweed wili take place at the new County Court House, in this city, on Tuesday, Nuo- vember the 7th, Rev. Edwards Pierrepont will ofi- late. The hymn to be sung is that good old tune ty Dr. Watts, BBLIBVING WE REJOIOR TO SEB THE CUSS RE mOveD.’ archbishop O’Conor, wiih seventy assistants, will conduct the services. The text for the sermon will ve taken from the Gospels, ‘LonD! BY THIS TIME 1B STINKRTH.’ This congrogation are requested to attend.” And that his easy flow of language ana pleasant @iotion aliould not weary his audience Mr. Choate (tmterapersed his remarks with points and jokes that were heartily relished. Referring vo Mr. Christo- pher Pullman, a republican sandwiched between O'brien and Bradiey in the Seventh Senatorial dis- tnt, he said that, personally, no thought Mr. Pull- man Was a good man, but he had no more chance of going to the State Senate than had Wiliam M, | ‘Tweed to enter the kingdom of heaven.

Mr. Choate’s announcement of the withdrawal of Thomas T. Stewart from the can- ‘vasa in the Fiftn Senatorial district, and Mr. Hawes’ Gechiiation in the Eighth district, at the request of | the Committee of seventy, drew forth tremendous applause, Mr, Tiiden, who followed Mr. Choate, was viltet and long winaed, but efective. Mr. Kvarts was loudly called for, and spoke eloquenvy, the audience cheering vehemently atevery point in his speech. Three stands were erected outside the building, from which speeches were made toa very crowd that had failoa w squeeze into the Cooper Hall.
