TAMMANY REBELS AGAINST OZS8AR The mass meeting called under the auspices of the Tammany leaders, and held in the Wigwam, Fourteenth street, last night, to ratify the nomi- Bations of the State and County Conventions for Governor and Mayor and their associates on their respective tickets, was an immense suc- cess as regards nomber and enthusiusm. The large hal! and the galleries were filled to the ut- most capacity, while the crowd surged trough tae corridors and up the stairway ina vain effort eitber to advance or retire, ‘I'he hall was appro- priately drapea with the stars and stripes, a like- Ress Of Mr. Tilden surfpounting the tribune. Tue Platiorm was ‘well filled by democratic iesdera, but few of the old time veterans, or “war horses,” were recognizable. The greatest order prevailed in the vast assemblage, without and within the vast assemblage, and the imposing force of police that was ou hand were mere “lookers on” in Veinna,” leaving the masses to ex- Dibit their qualities as law-abiding citizens under cirournstances not altogether favorable for their display. THE PROCEEDINGS. The meeting was formally opened by Mr. Schell, who nominated Edward Cooper presiding officer. This gentieman came forward, and was received With hearty cheers, He thanked the audience for ‘their enthusiasm, The reading of a long list of vice presidents and Secretaries was then proceeded with, containing the names of some of the most prominent. citi- Sens known as leaders in the democratic ranks, THE RESOLUTIONS, The following resolutions were then read and sabmitted and enthustically aaoptea :— The democrats of New York city, nevembled in mass mheetng at Tammany Hall, prociatin thelr cordial ap- Preval of the platiorm adopted and the candidates nom- Inated by the syracuse Lemocratic Suate Convention, Yor their chie’ aundard bearer the representative democracy of the pire Stave have made choice of Our own inost trusted and honored fellow citizen and tellow democrat Sauuel J.

Governor Parker, of New Jersey, said:— FXLLOW CiTIzeENs—You have met to consider the State of public aifairs and to hear political ques- tions discussed with a view of deciding how you should vote atthe approaching election.

MR. KERNAN’S SPRECH. On the announcement by tne chairman of Mr. Kernan as the next speaker, the immense audience broke out Into tumultuous cheering which lasted for some minutes, when order was restored. Mr. Kernan sata :— Mr, Chairman and {ellow-citizens—I most cordially unite with you, citizens of New York, in ratifying the nomination of the can- didates presented to you by the Convention at Syracuse. I unite with you in pledging our energetic efforts to elect Samuel J. Tilden— (great cheering)—and Mr Dorsheimer and their associates on the State ticket to the vilices to wuicn they have been nominated next Tuesday by s triumphant majority, (Cheers: I wave heard that in different parts of the State their opponests are endeavouring to excite prejudices against oar honored candidate for Governor, Mr. Tilden, by the pretence that he was not cordial in his support of your candidate for Governor in 1872. Nothing can be more uotrue—norhing is more unjust than @ pretence of this character. I, as you may well believe, know whereof I speak in this regard. I had the honor of his most cordial support in the nominating convention of that year, and I had it when it was entirely unsolicited by me. I had hia earnest, his eMficient, his untiring support through- out that entire canvass, and, belore I make the firat suggestion to you to-night, I desire to appeal to every personal, every political friend, I have in this State to unite with me in giving Samuel J. Tilden and his associates our earnest support that we may re- pay the debt I feel I am indebted to him for his support in that canvass. Fellow citizens, we jj meet to-night to take counsel in regard to polit cal affairs under most extraorati ry circum. stances. Nearly ten years have elapsed since the havoc and wasting effects and exjenditares of the war ceased. We have nad bonntttul harvests, we huve had developments of the resources of our M™mes and iorests, we have had all the elements of prosperity, and yet we are not ® prosperous nor a prospering people to-day. All the industries of the country are paralyzed. The business of your merchants is stagnant, Your factories are stopped or running short time. Your mechanics’ shops are almost empty. Labor, both skilled and unskilled, seeks employment in vain. We find here, with everything ‘rom Provi- dence that should make us a prosperous people— We find at the end of a bountiful season, in a beautilal autumn—large bodies of men in this city suffering because honest labor can earn no wages for themseives and ‘amilies. (Applause.) Fellow citizens, it is for you to say who has caused this state of things—for you to find out what has Caused all tnis evil, and it is your duty when you have discovered it Ww apply the proper remedy. I believe that the ars past has largely contributed to tne sad and lamentaols condition of our country. (Cheers.) ‘ne deranged, depreciated and unconvertinie paper currency is to the body, politic what the disordered biood ig to the human oody. If the blood 1s disordered the whole body veeomes dis- | eased, wud in the commertial world, when the circulating mediuin is depreciated, you muy be sure your bustuess and mdustrious pursuits will 1eei the euervacting und destroying effet. @ currency which is depreciated, which ts nut con- vertible tuto the currency of the commercial world. ‘This count has wealth enough.

F ANY GOVERNMENT EARTH, Why have we not returned to ises that there should be @ return to specie pay- | ments, vat we have had nothing but breaches of these promises. We have had no steps taken in that direction for years. We ali know that wile they have promised to retura vo specie our uncon- vertible currency they have issued 24,000,000 more of promises which they have violuted. You know that while we have pledge aiter pledge that | we should nave economy im our puvitc expendi- tures. 1 appeal to your intelligence to say whether we ever had so much extravagance and corruption in the administration of our public afuirs us exists ouder the Grant administrution for the last two years? ‘These thinus have tended to the derangement of our business, for the de- struction of our industry, for tne lamentable state the country at this time, give us a pledge that there shall @ change for the better in these thiugs? Not at all. Governor Dix meets tho question of the third term in the winding up of his remarks in his speech, and he speaks for the office-hoiders, for they Rave hitherto refused to give any expression tothe subject. In the conclusion of his remarks he says:— General Grant has been rewarded for his great ser- vices to the country by the same high distinotion, and I do not doub:, fellow citizens, that when he deems the proper time has arrived he will express his desiro to be relieved from the cares of offices and give, by his action, additional force to the example of bis illustrions predecessors, He does not doubt that when General Grant; deems the proper time to have come that General Grant will indicate his desire to be relieved of the cares of office, WS HAVE NOTHING IN THB WORLD TO INDUCE US TO BELISVE THAT GENERAL Gant HAS ANY IDEA OF SEEKING A RELIEF FROM THR CaBks OF THE PRESIDENTIAL OFFICE. Why, the repablican party shows that they have every desire to keep Grant to, for there bas not been an intimation from any one in oftice that Grant wil not do this. MY FELLOW CITIZENS, I THINK 1F GENERAL GRANT WERE TRUE TO HIMSELF, TRUE TO THE MOST GLORIOUS TRADITIONS OF OUR COUNTRY, TRUE TU THB REPUBLIC, HE WOULD HAVE COME OUT AND SAID:—“I AM NOT THE MAN TO PROPOSE TO VIOLATE THB EXAMPLE OF THE GREAT AND GOOv WASHINGTON. | AM NOT THE MAN WHO IS DISPOSED TU VIOLATE AN EXAMPLE THAT HaS BEEN MADE MORE SACRED BY THE MEMORY OF WASHINGTON.” But there ia m0 question that he had the idea of perpetuating his tenure of office longer than Washington. ask you another thing, fellow citizens, General | Dix has attemptea to answer the question, but I want him to answer this question in the way the Evening Post has avewered it 1n an editorial, that they will not support mim toro third term. 1 4 WANT GENERAL DIX TO ANSWER THIS:—IPF THK OFFICE HOLDERS NOMINATE GRANT WILL YOU OPPOSE HIM OR WILL YOU SUP- PORT HIM? Tho Bventng Post says, ‘it will.meet | Mi With no support from this jourmal.’” They nave met the question fairly. I want General Grant to make answer. li the office holders or his party Dominate him it isavery simple question, ard GENERAL DIX CAN SAY FOR HIM “YES” OR “NU.” It will have DO weight with any one for General Dix to say that, when the proper time arrives, General Grant will intimate his desire to retire from office. 1 BELIEVE THAT THERE ARD SCHEMERS AROUND GeNRvaL Grant, WHO, 10 KBEP TRRMSRUVES IN OFFIOR, WILL SBR TO ELECT HIM FOR 4 THIRD fERa, Lf tue people of sale Beate abet elgetyGem | | administration o1 our executive affairs for a tew | in the proclamatiun appended to his annual | ¥ | | ‘To-day we have | ion deign to | I want to | eral Dix and the candidates nominated by the Convention—a Convention that did not say one | word in their declaration of principles as to a third term—if the people of ths State are satisiled with the present state of things; if the people of | New York are satistied with the administration of affairs as carried on by the administration for the past two years, and will be the upholders of General Grant in the violation of the sacred traditions of the country, THEN THERE WILL BB ESTABLISHED 4 PRECEDENT WHICH WILL BE DANGEROUS AND UNCONSTITUTIONAL. (Cheers.) You have bad, in my judgment, no reform; | neither have you any right to expect any reform | from the present administration. You sce how matters have gone-on, and you see:no intention of any change. The speaker then referred to the encouraging | ‘results which had attended the electivns in Obie | and Indiana, and contended that, m_ bis Judgment, | the country had iost confidence in the present ad- | mipistration. A REVOLUTION HAD TAKEN | PLACE COULD — NOT BE SUP. | PRESSED. People had reason to fre- ,joice over recent elections, as indicating | “@ determmatiun on the part of the com- | munity to have sound and solid government, He rejoieed, moreover, in tbe fact that daring those elections where the candidates came forward on the question of & proper currency they were tri- -umpbantly returned. (Cheers.) Aé watters stood in regurd to that questaon, the result tended to make the rich richer and the poor joorer. In Illinois the democracy had taken jonest ground, and the result could not Jail to re- ‘dound to the advantage of the community. The tume_ had arrived when honesty should be the ona@racteristic feature of the government. It was ume, indeed, thac the practices whicn had pre- vValied during the pasttwo years of the present administration should be Treouked, He asked every One present to examine the records of the party 30 power anu see whether that party bad not violated tts pledges made to the count! In 1872, (Cheers.) In relerring to the thir term question the speaker earnestly besougnt tiig assemblage on the subdjec', wo give thelr ver- + diet by the election of the democratic liberal State Ucket, waicn would at once be convincing that lew York was sound on that important subject. , After some further observations on the question sof the present state of the currency, the speaker {paid an eloquent tribute to this demecratic candi- jaate tor Governor, and expressed the nope that ‘he would be elected by tuat overwhelming inu- jority which his ability and self-sacrifice so justly merited. After adverting to the future of the great demo- ‘cratic party in the State of New York, and allud- amg to the platiorm as agreed to at the Rochester ;;Comvention, Mr, Kernau said Samuel J. ‘Tilden | ‘came home from that convention and with the ald of Charies O'Conor—(Cneers)—made a success(al sveffort Lo Overthrow the corrupt meno of tue party. {For this great service they never accepted a cent. | ‘whey Owed much to those gentiemen and the least | ‘they could do was to wive Mr. Tildeu @ couple of ‘| years of power to vindicate the rights of the mocracy. Tilden was the man who had been | charged with conniving at iraud, it was said | " that, it he were elected, he would be identified | | with dishonest men in the administration of public | ,| afulra, The demo«ratic party aid not believe it. | | Since Mr. Tilden was nominated he had been grow- | ing stronger every day in the country districts, | and he (Mr. Kernan) could say that from all tie | ‘Indications they would find on election day, j | democrats, liverals, and repuplicans standing | together to vindicate the character of u ‘man had been unjustly aspersed; and on | election day they would do him justice by | | electing him to the highest office in the State. | (Cheers.) Mr. Kernan then sjoke of the second \, Candidate on the ticket for Licutenant Governor, Mr. Dorsheimer, (Cheers.)

Subvequent events de- privea Mr. Tilden of the rvaluabie co-operation in the leagislative vodiex of tuose uistinguished | gentiemed. Much as he lamented tits loss, be | did not turn back. having accepted the nominu- | ton to the Assemby, aud, belug vlected, he took upon himself the burden oj the great work. tle consecrated Miimseti ty it to a compiete exclusion j Of all proiessioual aod private business and evead j of the must ordinury Intercourse of sucial lie. | Of course he never thtended, and it could not be expected, tliat he stiouid take the customary part | im the routiue business of legis.ation, and which *| Would Lave engrossed tts whole time. Lut what he did do was to carry out the great work fur whica le bad accepted the nomination aad ior which he bad been etected by tue peopl ects i} the public attention. The first is the complexe- ess Of ite success, Look back five years to the degraded condition of the judiciary, to the alarm aud despondency that filled the public mind, and reflect thut to-day there 1¥ not a whisper of re- | | proach iu respect ‘to the admtr stratios of justice The second aspect 1s bepeflt which that success has Iu the city of New York, the meusareless | conierred, not ouly upon the bar, which it has saved and elevated, upom the litigants whom it has protected and rescued, but upon the commu- nity, Whose most valuable Institatuon it has reno- vated, whose personal rights and whose property it baa surrounded with new securities to the State and country, whose honor and whose reputation abroad it has restored. | say, the i gprs benefits of such areform can scarcely expressed in lunguage or measured by the human mind. sucrifee by which this work was fccomplished, Is must be remembered that few believed that an impeacoment could ve carried through che House of Assembly; tiut during all tue periods Of despondency, and they were irequent, among all the friends of reform, Mr. Tildeu remained firm, constant, resolute, determined tn his efforts, unylelaing tu his purpose that the cause stiould succeed. Hoto much of that success was due to hix energy, to has persistence, to his firmmess, even more than to his abilities, I am content to have measured by republican authorities—vonorabie men whe co-operated with him. It lappeas that there is an. opportuuity tor the people oi the city of New York, who have been the object of these mea- sureless bevefita won vy great sacrifices, not to re- ward him, but to gay to the young men of the com- munity that such a career wil: be appreciated by those who shali be benefited by it; that the good etemeats tn human society will stand by and protect aod shield the Mun wio serves the public from being stricken down by the enemies created by that service. THE ONLY MEASURES F REFORM WHICH HAVE BEEN SECURED ARE THOSE WHICH WE MAINLY OWE TO MK, TILDEN, NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE SINCE. We need an affirmative policy. We ueed to have the oree of the executive arm of the zovernment Wielded with the energy, persistence and will which enabled Mr. Tilden to carry through these great reforms which are, as yet, the only fruits gathered by the reforming spirtt of the Peopie, What class of men in this clly would rejoice if Mr. ‘filden could be deieated? Would the merchants, the mechanics, the honest portion ot the community like to mingle their congratulations over such a result with convicted wroagdoersa or disgraced officials? Wouid wey like to swell tne chores of | triumph which would be raised vy those who Lave suffered by the restoration oi judicial purity? | Would men who know that their property and their persons have been Made more secure vy the efforts of air. Tilden wish to leel that they baa taken part in striking nim down in this contest? Many of the questions involved in political strug- gies of the times are evanescent, lua littl wme Uhey will be jorgotten. But the history of the im- peachment of your judges will be read with deep interest in remote years. It will go down to the future a warning to the judiciwry. Li judges be- come corrupt it will furnish toe precedence aad the proceedings by which they can be stripped of the eruime whicn they may soll, and uriven from the trivunals upon which they may bring disgrace. The record af this impeachment will not only be afgreat value to the citizens af New Fork and of other States, but is will be Jound in the librariea of every civilized people, and it will be a valuable agency in lifting up he stand- ard of judicial morality, Since the day this city was iounded to the present time no men have been abie to render such service to its character, to its security, to its substential interests, as Mr. Tilden and bis associates of the legal prolession, who lorced the impeachment througn toa saccess- Tul conclusion, To ali of them the city an State of New York owe @ debt of gratitude, and it would be a sad comment upon the sense of justice { Ol our people if they did not reseat with Miuiguu- | tion any effort in any quarter to detame their characters or to asperse their motives. The authors of snch malicious and sbameless attacks mistake the character of our people when they think they osn strike down Mr. Lulden or nis asso- ciates by assaults of this nature, They only serve to remind bouest men of their obligations to tuose Who have wiped out a ioul reproach to tuts Metropolis, and who have rendered services of such magaitude to its interests, its character and its morals, DIX AND THE THIRD TERM. 1 wish to say @ few words tn conclusion ON THE QUESTION OF THE THIRD TERM— (cheers) —which above all others ts attracting puvlic attention. It 1s deemed by all classes of citizens a revolutionary idea, but noone can by any effort extract a de- claration of the policy of the administration. EVEN GOVERNOR DIX ADMITS 1Haf HE HAS NOT LEARNED THE VIEWS OF THE PRESIDENT, and it is not strange that he does not like to sug- | gest to General Grant that tt is time for him to throw aside the burdens of public life. It may de that im view of their compara- uve ages and that General Dix has held office FIVE 1IMES AS LONG AS GENERAL GRANT, that example would be deemed more suitable than ad- vice, even if he did not know what the President may do about the third term. General Dix made another declaration—what he himself means to do about it; for as ne said that he bas held for over forty years that the Presidency of the United States should have but one term, can he nimself do less than tell an inquiring public what course he will take if General Grant is again put in nomination by the republican party? ‘The question pat to General Dix was not what he thinks, but, What will he do? He does not tell the people be will oppose what he thinks is wrong, bat be refers the whole matter back to General Grant, and leaves it for the Prest- dent to decide. That 1s all an anxlous public can find ont. BUT IF GENERAL DIX IS INTRUSTED WITH POWER FOR TWO YEARS MORE, IT SHOULD BE KNOWN WHAT HE INTENDS TO DO UPON THIS VITAL QUESTION, (Cheers.) REMARKS OF MR. MONTGOMERY BLAIR. Mr. MontooM#Ry BLarm was the next apeaker. He congratulated them upon the great victories achieved by the democratic party in the West, and he hoped that on Tuesday next, looking at the great interests involved, they would do the same asthe West, He contended that Taz THIRY TERM MOVEMENT WOULD BE TH COMPLETION OF THOGE | BEVOLOTIONARY MEASURES WHICH HAD BEEN CaR- BIED OUT FOR THE RECONSTRUCTION OF THE SOUTH. The third term business Was THE NATURAL CUL- MINATION OF THE DESPUTIO MEASURES THAT HAD PREOBDED If, He adverted to an ar- tiole in the Cincinnati Gasstte, a paper which he ssid bad supported the radicals, observing tnat tho article in question, referring to the radical Measures, had deciared that those measures were calculated to degrade the government of the United States. The writer said that democratic institutions in this country must como to an end, AND THAT THE MAN ON SORSEBACK, TRB ‘THIRD-TERM MOVEMENT, MUST BE SUCCESS- FUL. He (Mr. Blair) was with General Dix in the band in band convention of Philadeiptia, On that occasion General Dix promised to oppose the te. constraction policy as unconstitutional, but had he Kept bis promise? (No!) Tuose measures had gone on, one by one, «until they saw the ading republican organ in the Weat declaring that the day of imperialism was at band. Wilson, | Dix and Boutwell did not conrrol the country; tne banks, the money power, were ticir masters. GENERAL GRANT WAS A NKUESSITY TO THAT INTEREST AT THE OUTSET, AND HE IS THE MAN WHO 8U:rT3 THE MONEY INTERES? AND THEY SUIT HiM. The country feels that the day ol Striking at toils money power is at haud, and the democratic party bad now an opjortunity of asserting the greatest interest that ever was com- mitted to any party. Grant bad no policy, taough he vetoed the Inflation bill; bat be had packed the Supreme Court to relieve a great moneyed interest, The redical party talked and made pledges, bns they koew no more what was then to be the policy shan dtd the servants at the Fifth Avenue Hotel. General Grant depended upon the money interesi. pending upon them he could ignore the people. Wuat oecam ) of Jay Cooke & Co.?

Grant dare do anyching, in tne desperate con- ition of the radical party they needed a man who bad anerve ofiron. The victory now to be won would ve @ victory ior republican Institutions, and their edorts should be uimed at restoring popular government iu every State. (Cheers). MEMARKS UF 8 8. COX.

A REPUBLICAN BOLT. The following address to the electors generally, and to the German electors particularly, from | Registrar Sigel and Mr. Charles Goepp has great significance, and shows that an important change in the republican and independent canvass is under consideration :— To tHE Evgctors ov Tue Crry oy New Yorx:— ‘The opposition to Tammany Hall has now taken sucb @ form that those who reat assault of the commua enemy ou the State government are, : their knowiedge, puttin: we city government, while, on the other hand, those who labor to protect the City against Tammany are its avowed adherents in re gard io the State ticket.
