NEW YORK HERALD, SATURD THe LON ANG THE LAMB, _—_— eo Apollo Halland the Republicans Grasp Hands to Tear Tammany. John McCool for Sheriff, with a Clamorous Chorus. “MAY THE BEST MAN WIN!" An Enthusiastic Convention and a Glorious Ratification of the United Nominations. “ON TQ THE BATTLE! ON, BOYS, ON!” An earthquake has occurred in local politics, The lion and the lamb have made their beds in one Toom, giving each other halfof the bed for better or for worse, The Apollo Hall, and all other dem- ocratic local organizations outside of Tammany Hall, have untted with the republicans in this city, and have presented a very strong and aggressive ticket for the county nominations. During the last five or six days there has been a tremendous amount of agitation as to the disposi- tion which might be made of candidates on the county ticket. Last evening, at eight o'clock, the Apollo Hali County and Judiciary Convention met in Irving Rall, for the purpose of nominat- ing candidates for the county and ju- diciary offices in conjunction with the Republican County Convention and Conference Committee which had met the Apollo Hall Con- ference Committee, Apollo Hall never had such an opportunity to congratulate itself as it had last evening. The sidewalk in and near Irving Hall ‘was so closely packed with EXCITED AND ENTHUSIASTIC DELEGATES and their friends and sympathizers that the police had to keep the way open by suggestion and by a little physical exertion. Every working and ac- tive politician in the city who is opposed to Tam- many Hall was on hand to drive a nail into the head of the Tammany organization, The Conferrence and Executive Committees had been in session until a late hour of the evening, and the meeting of the delegates, who were only admitted by tickets, was delayed until the Execu- tive Committee was seen marching up the aisles of Irving Hall, headed by Frank M. Bixby and Charles W. Brooke. Mr. Julius Wadswortn ‘Was unanimously elected as chairman of the meet- 128,and Mr, Alexander Davidson took his seat as secretary. Mr, CHARLES W. BROOKE then ascended the plat- form, and was hailed with loud cheers as he pro- ceeded to read the following report:— THE REPORT OF THE UNION CONFERENCE COM- MITTEE. The Committee of Conference, which was appointed for the purpose of conferring with other organizations, with the view of presenting suitable candidates tor th suilrages of our fellow citizens at the approaching elec- tion, and for the purpose of presenting to this Convention for their consideration the names of such persons as might meet the just and. reasonable expectations ot the people, beg leave to remind the Covention that at its last meeting & report was made _ setting that no alliance could be made with Hall, not because of any unreasonable demai Part'of Apollo Hall, but for the reason that Tammany Hall manitested no desire whatever that the democratic organizations should unite on any terms based on com- mon fairness or equity. The principles, aims and pur- poses of the democratic party are time-honored and en- during. The policy ot national, state and municipal ad- ministration should be the goot government ot the citl zeus by the choles of competent, pure and faithful oft. cers. ‘The selection of executive officers of a municipal- ity and of the Judiciary of the State and county, should be as far as possible removed trom the infinence of issues ot mere party. The people of the county have seen and sorely felt the evils resulting from tae election of incompetent and dishot firm) pressed with this convictia he best nen, pledged to d. reterence to their opinions on national or State issues. Your committee have conterred with representatives of various organizations, and as the result of such conier- ences present the Jollowimg named candidates tor the Tespective oftices. Your committee believe that the clec- Lou of the ticket now proposed Would serve the best in- terests of the citizens; and that result would be consis- tent with the ohe| tpn and interests of the democratic ty. For Sherif we present the name of one who Tecognised by all classes of the community jonest, faithfuland competent. Known to the cin 3 ior many years, his character is assailed by none, and itis the especial pride of the organization that hé stands prominent in {ts councils. We name tor that 1m- portant office John Mcvool. For County Clerk we pre- sent the name of Jacob M. Patterson, Jr., who is favorably known to the community and has just claims to the support of good citizens. For Justices of the Supreme Court we present the names of two honored members of the present Judiciary, whose names alone are sufficient commendation—Charles H. Van Brunt and Enoch L. Fancher. For Justices of the Superior Court, Alexander Spaulding and Isaac Dayton are presented to on, m full confidence that these genti re also Well and favorably known to need special recom- mendation from your committee. For Justices of the Marine Court we present Roswell D. Hatch and Henry , Howland. Their fitness for judicial position, will not be questioned by any. For Alderman we present the name of George Opdyke. For Coroners we present the names of Cornelius Flynn, Michael Cregan and Andreas Willman, thus completing. in the nomination of men of Fecognized capacity and integrity, a ticket to the success of which your committee look forward with pride and confidence. When the name of John McCool was read as the candidate for Sheriff the entire Conven ‘ion rose, as one man, and cheered and cheered again, some of the delegates throwing their hats up in the air wildly, and crying out for an encore. Aman who said his name was James O’Brien, from the Seventh ward, jumped up after he had heard the names of the CANDIDATES FOR CORONERS— Cornelius Flynn, Andreas Willmany and Michael Cregan read—and wanted to know if the tactics of Tammany Hall were to be adopted in the Von- vention; but he was shut off in a moment and the cries of ‘Question,’ “Question,” drowned his ineffectual articulations immediately. AMr. Tony Hartman, short, stout and thick, and also vigorous, then commenced to shake his cane at the chairman, and to yell in an indiscriminate and indefinite way, and wished to substitute the name of William C. Conner for that of John McCool. uproarious shouis of der John McCoole, Mr. Hartman sat down and re- mained sqpenee for the rest of the evening. Mr, Thomas Coman, from the Second Assembly dis- district, made a motion in favor of Thomas Burke tor Coroner; but it was not heard, Then Mr. Frank M. Bixby, with his cane in his hand and wearing an overcoat, came to the base of the plat- form and proposed that a committee of three be appointed by the Chair to wait on the COUNTY AND JUDICIARY CANDIDATES who had been so unanimously nominated by the Convention. Then there were more cheers, and the Chair appointed Frank M. Bixby, Henry Murra; ae Joseph Monheimer to wait upon the candi- lates. The Convention was at this moment very happy, and Charlies W. Brooke was called for, and in his usual off-hand and ready manner he made a short address denouncing Tammany Hall and its action at Utica, where Apollo Hall had met neither with consideration or courtesy, represeuting as she did 35,000 democratic votes. Apollo Hall was in favor ot reform and good government, If there were any gentiemen In the Convention who had been disappointed in the —Conven- tion in failing to have their candidates nominated they should remember that all food democrats had to make personal sacrifices in this time forthe sake of a good city ana State government. Tammany chicanery and traud had conspired to rule them out and now A PROPLE’S TICKET had been nominated which would sweep the city and bury Tammany forever. (Uheers.) At sunset on election day he believed the Apolio Hall and Union ticket would be elected by 80,000 majority. (Wild cheering.) M’COOL SPRAKS, led candidate At this moment, the a il nominat for Sheriff, Mr. John McCool, who and substantial looking man, appeared tn the hail, and as he walked up the side aisle and stepped on the platform he was balled with the greatest en- thusiasm, From all parts of the hall delegates sprang up and cheered with might and main, again and again, The excitement was extraor- dinary, and was only quelled when Mr. Mcvool stepped forward modestly, and said, hat in hand :— “| chank you kindly for the confidence placed in me by this Convention in si gouty me the nomination for Sheriff of this county. I feel that itis a great compliment, and I shall do my best, asl hope and know you will, for the success of the people’s ticket. Gentlemen, I thank you, andl cheerfully accept the nomination you have ten- dered me. (Long and continued applause.) Judge Spaulding and Mr. Roswell D. Hatch, then spoke briefly in acknowledgment of the nominations conferred upon them, and they were followed by Mr, James D, McClelland, who poured fire and brimstone upon Tammany Hall, John Kelly and his “confederate,” as he styled Andrew ireen, A few moments after the republican sub-com- Mivtee of conterence, consisting of Messrs. Charles Spencer, Commissioner Laimbeer, Joel Mason and Tr. Kasintre, came into the hall and announced that the Kepublican Convention had ratified and endorsed tue Apollo Hal 14 people's county and Judtetary tie! This wes received With cheers, ug then the Convention adjourned, AY, OCTUBER 25, 1873—TRIPLE SHEET, THE REPUBLICAN 00.)PZRATION, PARTE TRIBUTE A Harmonious and Docile Convention— The Cut and Dried Nominations Ef- fected. ‘The delegates to the Republican County Conven- tion assembied last evening in Republican Hall Twenty-third street and Broadway, to hear the re- Port of the Committee of Conference and to take such action upon it as might be necessary. Police Commissioner Hugh Gardner presided. After tne roll had been called the Committee of jubmitted their report, which was read Your committee beg leave to report that through « sub- committee they had several meetings with 4 similar sub-committee of the Apollo Hall organization, during whien there were and earnest expressions of the views of both organizations and of their members; that while there were at times marked differences ot opinion, every one seemed actuated by a strong determination to unite upon candidates who it was believed would poll the largest vote in opposition to lammany Hall, At an early stage of our conference it was agreed that the oMices of County Clerk, one Judge of the Supreme Court one Judge of the Superior Court and one Judge of the Marie Court should be elected by the republicans, sub- Ject, however, to any objection which might be received to individuals, while the Sherif, one Judge of the Su- brome Court, ne Judge of Superior Court and one udge of the’ Marine Court conceded to the Apollo Hall organization. Under the ike limitations your com- mittee claimed a'so two of the three Coroners and the o!- of Alderman, which were finally conceded them, After full and prolonged consideration the two sub-committees unanimously agreed to recommend to their respective conierence Committees the following ticket :— F—John XeCool. i Ona Clark sagob M. Patterson, Je. panther and Supreme Courl—ihoch L. Fancher ap Charles H Van, Brant. Judges of the Superior Court—Isaac H. Dayton and Alex- ander 8. Spaulding. Jul ‘the Murine Court—Henry E. Howland and Ros- well D. Hatch, Aldernian~George Opdyke. Coronere—Michagl Cregau, Andrew Willman and Cor- nelius Fiyun. A motion was then made to lay the report of the comurttee on the table, which was lost, and a mo- tion carried that it be received and adopte A committee 0; one trom each Assembly district Was then, on motion, ordere: to be appointed to make arrangements ‘tor a grand ratification meet- ing of the republican party, to be held at an early ate, The sub-committee of the Conference Committee Was also empowered to wait upon the candidates and notily them of their several nominations, and also to watt upon the Apollo Hali Convention and notily them of the action taken by the republican party. The Hon. E. DELAFIELD Surrn ina brief address alluded to the ticket which had been named, and believed that the Bar Associanon would heartily endorse the nominations made that night. The Convention then adjourned, subject to the call of the Chair. Shortly alter the adjournment of the Convention a committee of the Apollo Hall organization, consisting of Messrs, Francis M. Bixby, Henry Murray and John A. Monbeimer, waited upon the republican body and informed them that they bad nominated the ticket agreed upon, which was received with vociferous cheering. APOLLO AND LIBERAL REPUBLICAN ASSEM- BLY NOMINATION. The Apolio Hall Thirteenth Assembly District Convention met last night and nominated Stephen D, Peters for Assembly. The Liberal Republican Thirteenth Assembly Dis- trict Convention also met and nominated Stephen D. Peters for Assembly. THE GERMAN DEMOCRATS. Decisive Action of the Central Commit- tee=The Tendency of Federalism and Coesarism—Endorsement of the Tam. many Nominations. The German Democratic and ‘Liberal Republi- can” General Committee, Judge Michael C. Gross presiding, met at the Teutonia Assembly Rooms last night, when Professor Theo. Giaubensklee de, livered an address on a motion introduced by him, to the effect that their constituents be recom- mended to vote at the ensuing election for the constitutional amendment pro- viding for the appointment of the Judiciary by the Executive and its confirmation by the Senate. Anthony Eickhof, ina brief address, took an oppo- site ground on this question, stating that the ex- periment of the appointment of this Judiciary by the Executive had been tried in this State once before, and it had been rejected, for obvious reasons, in the adoption of thé constitution of 1846. MaGnus Gross argued that an appointed Judiciary had been tried before and if we had been Innicted of late years with corrupt jndges that had been elected it was owing to a corrupt state of the social and political atmosphere prevalent in this country since the unfortunate war between North and South. The present time had too much a tendency to “fed- eralism;” for was not already with great earnestness a scheme discussed to violate time-honored and traditional rule, by which no then heretofore was elected to the Presidency of the United States for more than a second term? (Sensation.) If this tendency ot ‘federalism’ was allowed to develop itself, it would tend to destroy the tree institutions ofthe republic. He thereiore urged perpetuating, the old democratic practice of leaving it to the vote of the eople to choose their ublic officers. (Applause.) Similar remarks on the subject were made by Dr. Merkel, Dr. Gerke, Kimbel, Koenler and others. The motion of Theod. Glaubensklee was rejected by an overwhelming vote and in its stead a motion by Anthony Eickhof, urging the people to vote against the constitutional amendment, proposing the appointment of the Judiciary by the Executive, Was adopted. Resolutions were then adopted by 8 unanimous vote denouncing the corrupt compact known to exist between the Custom House republicans and the so-called democrats known as Apollo Hail men, and endorsing the nominations made by the Tam- many Convention tor the county ticket for the Judiciary, Senate and Assembly. The meetin broke up with “Three cheers for the reforme democracy." THE UNION LEAGUE CLUB. Its Members Much Interested in the Coming Judicitary—The Question of Election or Appointment. In the Red Room of the Union League Club were assembled last night about forty members, in re- sponse to a call for a special meeting. Mr. Choate ‘was in the chair. Mr. JoserH P. VaRNUM read a portion of his pamphiet, written in support of tbe theory of ap- pointing the Judiciary by the Executive, instead of having judges elected by the people. The dis- ctssion, as set forth in the work, paid very left-handed compliments to both the Bar and the Bench as to their efi- ciency, integrity and business promptitude under our present system. The reader was interrupted by the hearty protests of a hale old gentleman Present, who thought that the people should know better than their servant, the Executive, who to put on the bench. Mr. Varnum here declined to proceed with his reading, and the meeting passed to the consideration’ and adoption of the following resolution, viz.:— ; Resolved, That the President appoint a committee of three to act with other organizations in causing to be rinted a suitable number of ballots adapted to voting on ¢ pending constitutional amendment, and to attend to the distribution of ballots. s That the Executive Committee be requested to make an appropriation, not to exceed $2,500, tor car- rying the foregoing resolution into effect, and for pay- ling the, expenses of the report of the Uommittee on Political Reform upon the subject of electing a judiciary. The following preamble and regolution were next adopted Whereas the exercise of the elective franchise is among the chiet duties of a good citizen, and the in- terests of our country, and especially this great metrop- olis, require that no {intelligent voter should allow him- self to be distranchised by a failure to qualily himseif to vote ; therefore. Resolved, That it is the Imperative duty of every such citizen who has not already done so to cause his name to be duly registered to-morrow, ax that will be the last op- portunity to do so before the ensuing elections The following resolution was adopted, in order tag Anas the committee as above created, to act :— Resolved, That, the Committee on Political Reform be and are hereby directed to take into consideration the merits of the judiciary nominations of the various polltl- cal parties, and from such nominations to report which of the various parties nominated are fit to be supported by citizens interested in maintaining an uprignt judiciary, a to be made to the club on Tharsday evening nex! The meeting then adjourned until next Thursday evening.

An’ Kasy Way to'Raise Money—How the Republican Siate Committee Does It. Hitherto the power! that be have assessed dl- rectly the clerks empioy? in government service. This year they are afraid & 40 80, on account, per- haps, of the trouble in the ,7ost Office at St. Louis and elsewhere, Still the Republican State Com- mittee expects to make at least’$15,000 out of the poor and hard-worked clerks of the New York Post Office for the purpose of aefraying tite expenses of the coming election or the coming dinner parties. There are about 1,200 employés in the Post Omice. Each is asked, as will be seen by the circular here- with printed, to “aid in defraying the ex- penses.”’ It is well understood, upon the word of Colonel Hopper, tnat the “aid” is one per cent on salaries of $1,000 and one and one-valf per cent on all over that, The circular explains itself, Colonel George F. Hopper has been appointed Assistant Treasurer of the Ke- publican State Committee. He was made Assist- ant Treasurer because he is Superintendent of the Box Department in the General Post Oiice of this city, and by his position might be expected to col- lect moneys from Post Omice clerks whether in his department or not. From the circular it will be geen that even Hugh Gardner, Chairman o1 the State Executive Commitiee, does not dare address Colonel Hopper as an employé of the Post Office. From Colonel Hopper's card, Which 18 enclosed in every circular, it may be seen that Hopper bimselt does not dare to acknowledge that he is employed in any official capacity :— Rervaticay State Commrrter, ivr AvENUK HoTKL, New Yorx, Oct. 10, 1573.

Pillsworth has received the unanimous nomination of the republicans in the Fourth (Kings county) district tor the Assembly. £. W. Tobey is the republican candidate for the State Senate in the Sixteenth Senatorial district. Mr. Tobey has represented Essex county in the As- sembly for two years, and was one of the few mem- bers who escaped association witn iobby jobs. Thomas I. Jefferson is candidate for the Ken- tucky State Senate for Somerville. The republicans are gathering crumbs of comfort from the fact that the city of Lancaster, Pa., which gave a democratic majority last year of 415 now gives a republican majority of about fifty. Motto for the next Albany Lobby—‘‘Where there's @ bill there’s a way.” The Pittsburg Commercial (republican) men- tions as among the queer results of the election in Pennsylvania this year the election of republican candidates for the Legislature in Fayette and Greene and of democratic candidates in Delaware and Mer- cer. If the editor had been asked to pick any four counties in the State in which such results might be regarded as impossible these would have been the very counties he would have chosen. The Governor of South Carolina has called an extra session of the Legislature to take some action relative to the present financial condition of the State and to adjust its indebtedness with its creditors. , The Hartford Post suggests to the Boston Ad- vertiser thas Gideon Welles was not late Postmaster General. and, by way of a littie fun, perhaps, remarks, “Such is fleet-ing fame,” in allusion, probably, to the venerable gentleman's connection with the Navy Department.
