6 THE DEMOCRACY. Mass Meeting at Cooper Institute Last Night. AN ENTHUSIASTIC GATHERING, Speeches of Senator Kernan, Abram 8, Hewitt, Senator Stockton and Others. THE TORCHLIGHT PROCESSION. ieiniejaamoniniia In spite of the inclement state of tho weather there ‘Was an immense attendance at the democratic meeting Deld im and around the Cooper Institute last evening, wndor the auspices of the Central Tilden and Hendricks Clad. It was beyond doubt the largest and most en- ic political gathering yet hold in the clty dur- the present campaign. The mass meeting the republicans ome time ago, when “Bob” Ingersoll was the star of the occa- sion, though large, was a mere parlor party compared with it, and even tho great gathering which assembled two weeks ago to listen to Senator Bayard | ‘was, in comparison, a emall affair, It was raining quite hard when the doors of the thrown opon, and thongh it was only a little after seven o'clock then, the onutire hall was filled to over- flowing ten minutes afterward, The crush for a time ‘was tremendous within the building, and the crowds who could not get in atall gathered about the stands Outside and seemed to be as full of enthusiasm os though the weather was all that could have been desired. MR. SRYMOUR'S LETTER, The meeting in the hall was called to order by Mr. Thomas J. Campbell, who called upon Mr, Abram 8. Hewitt to preside. poming forward, He thanked the audience for the hearty reception they gave him, and said that before the lormal speech making of the evening would begin he would request Mr. Petor B, Olney, one of the secre- tarieg, to read a letter the President had received from Hotatio Seymour, After the cheors nad subsided with which Mr. Seymour's name was greoted Mr. Olney Fead the letter, which was as follow To Waxe.ex H. Proknam, » President Tilden ana Hendricks Clu Sin—l am sorry 1 cannot attend the mass meeting at the Cooper Institute, 1 have not beon able at any time withip the past four months to travel on tho railroads, and even if I could reach your city 1am noi strong enough to adaress a large audience, 1 should be glad to speak to the busi- ness mon of New York about the injury to its com- merece by taxation, as that is a subject to which I have given much thought, An attempt has been made to show that the cost of our government ts lesa for cach person than at former Himes. It is singular that this is stated by republican Sexators, who by their votes compel one class to pay more than their share of taxes, and ina way that makes them poorer while it enriches others, The cost of our government ought not to keep pace with the increase of numbers. Its duties are few and limited, The question is, Are our taxes too heavy, and are They fairly’ imposed? We have a great war flobt to pay and all other expenses should be kept down to the lowest potnt. Yet tho cost of government in 1875, above all pay- Ments on account of the war, was nearly twice as Great as the largestamount it ever reached before that period. It ts more than twice as great os twas when wo sent fleets and armies to conquer Aexico, That taxation, and the way tn which it is put on, has crushed the business of our couniry, is made clear by what you now see in New York. Why is your city now filled with strangers? Why does its ‘business suddenly revive? ely because the great railroad lines put down to the lowest point their taxes for carrying property and persons.’ This bas sent the produce of the West to the markets of ihe world, enabled its people to buy our goods of home or foreign make, and come to the East for purposes of Dusiness or picasure. Ifthe railroads yhould put up their charges again—and it is said they will soon do so—thon all this wil be changed. Business and travel will tall off avonce, If the cutting down of railroad taxes gives new life to busi then a reduction of the greater charges of government will do the samo thing. Wo cannot afford to have our prospority hang upon the policy of corporations. I think they acted wisely and well when they put down their charges. this they help the public, But it ts not believed that they an afford to keep them down. Railroad managers claim that the enormous taxes pat upon the materials of their roads, and its influence upon the price of labor nearly one-third the coset of their coustruction, axation bas become a part of their cuptial upon they must earn dividends. that the Dusiness ot the country has not ouly to pay its taxes, bnt st must enable the railroads to pay their taxes. Beyond that they must be euabled to pay dividenus on former taxation, which makes a part of their capital. We mast not, therefore, depend upon low railroad tharges for lasting relict. We ought not to look to them, but to our government. If railronds can reform their expenses the government can do the same thing. lis burdens are tuo great and they are imposed fo a way that is unequal and unjust. About three times as much us the whole cost of our govera- ment formenly is now taxed upon commerce. Theso taxes are cumulative upon the grain of the Weat if it is utto market. They lessen our home business id have desiruyed our carrying trade upon the se: Commerce fs the great driving wheel which sets i Other industries in motion. It has been loaded during the past five years by an average apoual charge of more than $175,000,000, This bas cenfeevied its action and low- ered its power, and this ts the cause of the do- pression ol ousiness and the distress of labor. The re- Jorms demanded by the supperters of Messrs, Tilden and Hendricks are not mere theories, they concern ¢ welfare of every person, of every home, of every business pursuit in our country. We can ‘if we will bave tenioid more relief trom cutting down govern- ment taxes than railroads have given us. Wo must at this eloction evoke the spirit of reform. It Must control uot only at tho capital of our Union, bat in the government of every State, erty and town, New York bas suffered beyond all other cities from hostility to commerce and from the oppression and unequal pottey of the general government, then, her merchants, her mechanics and will help us in this work of retrenchment aud reform. Lam, truly yours, &c., HORATIO SEYMOUR, MR. HEWITT’S srEncit Fruvow Crrizxns:—I am quite sure when I look into faces of this audience, to different from ordinary tical gatherings, that there are here to-night a ¢ numbor of those porsons who class themselves as fudependent voters, In what I shall say, therefore, 1 Bhall address myself not so much to democrats, who do not need arguments to conurm their convic- tions, as to tat large and increasing body, of citizens who intend to vote without regard to pre- vious party affiliations. (Applause) During past four weeks spovches have been made in the State of New York rather remarkavle in their character, upon the repuviican side of the ques- ton. The first was delivered by Senator Conkling at Utica op Tuesday night, the second by General Dix— fhisses)—in this hail last Tucsday might, the third by r. Cowden, an eminent merchant of this city, last night, aud tho fourth has come in the form of a com- Manieation, lately published, from a woll known law- th Jer of this city, Mr. Stoughton. Now, these four pro- tions may be divided into two classes—one the ar- ive, addressed rather to the reason than to prejudices of the people, 1 am giad to shat in bis speech the Senator from this State did not dishonor hunself or late which he represents by an appeal to party pa: gion. (Applause) 1 am glad to say thas that mer- @hant, who is typical of the merchants of New York, Mr. Cowden, delivered a calm and temperate address, 1 am sorry to say that I cannot make the same com- endation, either of the letier of Mr. Stoughton or of speech of General Dix. (Hisses.) 1 know that when they appeal to thoso dead issues that it is trash and rubbish, which the people of this count d especialiy the independent voters, aro heartily si eneral Dix is the last man in the Btate of New York, or, ed, in the United States, to peek Lo rovive these dead issues. MR, TILDEN AND GENERAL DIX 1x 1860, In this hall, on the Sth of October, 1860, was held a Meeting, over which General [Pix presided, and at which made arpeocb.

(Lauzhter and applause. ) THK KEPUDLICAN CONFIDENCE OAME, It does seem to me that the confidence game was boing played by the republican managers leaders before ‘the American people must an amusing spectacle. Here 1s an istration which hag had fuil possession of the gover: ment for over fifteem years (without so much as check until the recent session of Congress), an ministration whieh bas so conducted the public bui nose that by the testimony of ta own supporters it hi | become a byword and a reproach at home and abroad, bas overtaken the business of the country and 1to bankruptcy a large number of its most en- ing and deserving citizens. Judge Hoar, the in member of Congress from the Worcester t, in the remarkable peroration to bis 10 Belknap trial, speaking of what hi ened within the eight years of bis Congressional view, says: have seen five Judges of a nigh rt of the Untied States driven from office by threats of impeachment for corruption or maladministration, Ihave heard the taunts from friendiiest lips, that argument on | when the United States presented herself’ in the East to take part with the civilized world in Kenerons competition in the arts of life, the all others was her corruption.” Says bis still more eminent brother, Judce Rockwood Hoar, in a lotwer sh on Wednesday last, ‘What influence haa ed the trinmpbal mareh in which the republican y hay been accustomed to go to easy and assured ry, and has nubstttuied a stra for existence? * What bot the deep-seated amd. widespread dissatistaetion exerted at the North at the San- born moieties, salary grabs, the bargains, con- tracts, ofice.jobbing ‘and cancus-packing which oc- cur to every man’s mind when General Butler's namo ia mentioned tn connection with politics?’ Senator Conkling, in his speech at Utica on Tuesday last, after opening with adeseription of the des! e condition of the business of the country, to which no words of mine can add force, asks for the continued support of the people, although, as he says, “extenuating no caso of frand’ or crime, and denouncing with shame ond sorrow individuals ding official trasts who have been guilty of detestable jobbery.’” Bays Mr. Cowden, an eminent republican merchant of this city, “OF course thers has been inexcusable looseness and cor- ruption unfler tho rule of the republican party, which we ali lanéent and condemn.” “TILDEN AND REFORM, ’? But it ts useless to muitiply these confessions, which are made with “shame and sorrow” by every {air- minded republican who still adheres to bis party, 1 have made them only becauso it 1s the best kind of evi- | dence to be addressed to the independent voters; it 1s evidence derived, not from partisan democrats, but from loyal republicans, who expect to etfect reform within the republican party. 1 know that the repub- licaa Journals object to this mothed of argument. They do not hke republican extracts, They do not like Tilden extracts. They even denounce Tilden’s Extract of Coffee as poison. But nearly all powerful remedies are poisonous when administerod in large doses, We shail, however, administer to the country in the com- ing election such a Judiciary dose of the Tilden oxtract of reform as will, Lam sure, purge this government of all the diseases Which have been engrafted upon it by the corrupt and vicious rule of the Inet eight years, (Cheors) Butthe indictment against the sdmintetra- tion has been framed and formulated in the address of the able and patriotic men who attended the Fifth avenue conterence in terms which admit of no rein- forcoment from any source. The names of two men only were there invoked as able toredeem the country froin its peri, The one was Bristow and the other was Triden, Tho Republigg Convention rejected Bristow, the Democratic Chnvention, with a unan- | imity as unexpected as was gratifying to the | patriot, adopted that of Tilden with overwhelm- | ing enthusiasm. The Republican Convention, on | the other hand, took the very man outlined in the following passage of the Filth avenue address, when it called upon the people to reject ‘‘men who, however tavorably judged by their nearest friends, aro not publicly known to possess those qualities of mind and character which tho stern task of genuine reform requires; for the American people cannot now afford to risk the future of the Republic in experiments on merely supposed virtues or ramored ability, to be trusted on the strength ef private recommendations.” Whom does shis portrait fit, I ask you, independent ers, Hayes or Tilden? The honest republicans are faily conscious of great difficulties which lie in the path of the advocacy ot the republican party with sach fa record and such a candidate, 1 fact they are dry eed by tho method which I believe the lawyers onfession and avoidance.” They confess the charges, but they plead the baby act as to the past, and promise to do better for the future, by what they call “retorm within the party.’ But hore let us take another dose of extracts, this time the extracts ot Covkling, who is always philosophic in bis ideas if ne is not always correct in his facts. Ho says in his Utica speech:—“Few men are base and pre- sumptuous enough to accept party or public trusts in & representasive aystem, and then, on pretext of inde- pendence or superiority, to defeat the purpose and con- viction of the constituency which delegates power to them, There havo been such men, and party treason has been applauded for a moment, but contempt and disgrace for all timo waits on the betrayer of every trust which rescs in honor and the piain anderstanding of men—that cach of the candidates for the Prosidency will maintain and illustrate the policy and spirit of bis party is as certain ax good Iaith in man, and this fact presents in the clearost light the difference between them,?? tly so. And is this not at the same time a judgin YY cognovit against the republican candi. date, and a warning to bim, in case of his election, of the consequences whioh will foliow any attempt on his part to assert bis personal or official Independence by tho spirit of his party? (Cheers.) Now, it the spirit of the party is represented by the leaders, who have they been and who are they now? “By their fruits ye ball know them.” SENATOR STOCKTON’S REMARKS. Senator Jobn Stockton was the next speaker. Ho argued that 1f the people decided to keep the republi- an party in power there would be reason to lose hope the future of our institutions, He denounced tho loody shirt cry of the republicans in the canvass a8 an unwarranted one, cry that was raised for tho purpose of reviving issucs that the war had settled eleven years ago, He said he bad lately heard Con- gressman Gartleld, of Obio, address a gathering of what was called “Boys in Blee,” although it was plaia to seo that many of those boys | had been born since the war, (Laughter j and applause.) He had beard him tell those Boys in Blue ot the times when the balls whistied about their heads—"the heads of those unborn babes’’—(laughter)—and remind them that they were fn the present campaign fighting the same battles they fougut during the rebeilion. He said that he w: tounded to hear such language from any man att present day, He regarded such language outrageous and inexcusable, Evidence et where satisfied him, however, that the a tempt on the part of she republican party to reopen the wounds caused by the war was not reaping tho barvest that its promoters expected it would, and that the real soidiers of tho war, both North and South, wore showing theit disgust for the infamous policy of the men who saw the handwriting on the wail, and who dared not face the live issues of the da: Mr, Stockton claimed that the crimes of the republican party against the people mado it im- perative that it should be put out of powei Republies lost, he said, were lost for ever, and this the people should bear in mind, Men should’ ook at tho issues of tho day, be said, regardless of party, and each man should say to himeel!, “1 am for my country firat, and when corrupt men are to be pat down I care not whether of my own party or not, I shall side with those who band together to put them out.” Ho closed by exhorting all voters to look at the contest indepen- dent of politics, If they did they would voto for Til- don and Hendricks, and put an end to the rule of those men Who had brought disgrace upon the country. MR. SALTONSTAL! The Hon. Leverett Saito: Ho said that if anybody bad the right to be oalleaa Yankee he was that man, for his ancestors had settled down in Massachusetts in 1630, and their descendants had lived quietly over since. ‘He referred in eloquent terms to the ovation given to the troops from Virginia, South Carolina and other Southern States in Boston ‘on the occasion of the centennial celebration of the battle of Bunker Hill, and the warm tokens of friend- | sbip given by the people of that republican | State to th visitors, It then seemed that the people of Boston, who undoubtediy on that occasion reilected the opinions of the Northern people, were ready to take their Southern friends to their hearts and forget that they had ever been enemies, Tho feeling between the two was cortainly sincerc, and so everybody thought, Yet when he read the papers now he was in doubtas to whether he had then been in @ dream or was now in one, for they were full of the most violent app vy the republican leaders to the jo to revive the issues of the war, to open ‘ounds that every one thought closed. He spoke of the correption of the leading men of the republican party 1m official positions, eting the cases of Schenck, Belknap aud many others as ilinstrations. The republicans cla‘med, i was irae, that their big thieves did got steal money out of tho Treasury. [hat was ao, he conceded, in a majority of canes, for the republican thieves were fo quick nt their trade that, as a rule, they stole the peopl money before it got into the Treas (Laughter) He referred to tho reeovery Mr. Risine as one of the most remarkable on record. Thanks to a ijucky sunstroke, bi o Biaino had escaped the condemna' that th him in Congre: ¢ himself somewhat secu eby securing an ‘easy chair” in the Senate, The sunstroke bad apparentiy done him good, tor he was able to get out of a4 and go stumping about the country day and night. He joséd by declaring that if the repubiicaa party suc- ceeded this election, he verily velieved we would here- jer have omly @ republicin namo, Wo might, it is ouly product of ber institutions in which sho surpassed | prin. | trae, apparently put a different ma! in the White House, but the men who would influence Hayes would succeed by the same methods in electing the man of their choice SENATOR KERNAN'S SPEECH. Senator Francis ‘Kernan was introduced as the Next speaker. Me was greeted with cheers, which lasted for severa! minutes. When silence bad been re- Stored, he begag a speech which lasted for more than an hour, and {8 the course of which he said the re- publican party had held substantially all the powers of the whole government during the past eleven years of peace, but would bold it no longer !f the American people were true to themselves and their country. But that party now appealed to the people to continue it in power jor tour years more. 18s claims to longer power should not be decided by arguments about woat had occurred during the war, and they shonid not be allowed to retain power on mere promises as to the future; bus every citizen of the land should decide that question by turning to the record they have made during these eleven years during which they hi held the government, (Applause.) Every armed had risen against the government inid down its when the war ended, mo: n years ago, and according to the report of General Grant himself, made in the fall of 1866, after his tour through the South, the great mass of the people who bad engaged tn the wicked rebellion (so disastrous to them) accepted the situation and desired to submit to the constitution and the laws made pursuant to it, and to live in peace and harmony with the people of the North, (Ap- plause.) The speaker asked every voter to remember at the polls whether the republican party had pu doe proper policy in referenee to restoring peace an mony between the biacks and whites the South and the whole people of the South and those of the North, and if {t had not, to reform she error by electing other adininistration to power. At the elose of the war he said the federal debt was about $2,600,000,009, During these eleven years anda half the ropublican party) has received all moneys belonging to you, and very much of it taken from you by ‘direct and indirect taxation, fully up to $4,400,000,000, How much, he asked, of the principal of the national debt has been paid out of that large re- ceipt of funds from a people burdened with taxation? Only about $600,000,000. And when from the grosa rece!pta of about $4,400,000.000 all that has been paid by the republican party, during the eleven years, of rinctpal or interest or pensions to the soldiers, there jo yet been left by them in the ordinary administras Vion of the government something over $2,000,000, 000, At the close of the war thero existed about $400,000,000 of circu'ation motes tssued during tho warand which were used as currency, It was de- preciated — then, during these years, while they bad been receiving this vast ' treasure from the people, hat the party redeemed those promises, or had they dono what they should have done—provided a means to redeem them, so that they would have been at par with any currency in the world? [bey had not, and a large proportion of it remained unredeemed to-day, and 16 was depreciated below the standard values of the world, below the notes of the Bank of France and the Bank of England trom ten to eighteen per cent, ac+ cording as it tluctuates, TAXATION HAD NOT REEN REDUCKD as it should have been, The republican party had not been unfalthtul in theso respects alone, but corruption, peculation and Jobbery pervaded to au alarming extent every departinentot tho government, and tho speaker asked~-in view of all these facts, whieh had been de- veloped throuvh the independent press, which had ap- peared in judicial trials of officials, and which bad boen made manifest by the reduction of the last House of Representatives—whether the welfare of the coun- try did not demand the removal of the corrupt party from power, Mr. Kernan proceeded to read several extracts from the recently published letter of Charles Francis Adams to a committee of gentiemen in the State of Obio, in which that gentlenian reterred to the alleged corrup- tion of the past years, and stated that recent disclosures “distinetly prove that the whole existing organization has been houeycombed with corruptiou.” He also read freely from the address of the Fifth avenas and eleven Conterence to corroborate tho statements of Mr. ms, If there was one thing he Mr, srnan) was proud of it was the fact that the American people are Intelligent and prac- tical, and he would say to his republican friends who were attempting to divert them from looking into the condition of their own government during this canvass by talking of things which were supposed to exist dur- ing the war they did not Know the peoplo. Tho corrup- tion, waste and extravagance of the dominant party had not only impaired the prosperity of the country, bat bad brought disgraco upon republican in- stitutions, and if it were allowed to go on it would’ prove moro fatal than armed wars, The spenker dweit at length upon the passage of Mr. Adama’ letter, in which that gentleman declared that the honest mon in the republican party were not able to check the abuses complained of, and that therofore thero was no hope except in turning that party out and putting pew men in. Cliques of men in the party had banded themsolves together and had grown strong by years of association—nad fastened themselves on the organization, and thoy crushed out all republicans who tried to reform abuses, and kept in power mon they vould use. Tho c of Mr. Bristow was mentioned an instance af an honest republican being crushed by these corrupt men. Out of a convention of over 700 delegates he got only seventy-six votes, while Blaine (whom the speaker hoped everybody despised) got 361. Bristow, who at- tempted to save the government 80 much money, was turned out of office afier being rebuked at Cincinnati, and Bluford Wilson and every friend of his wus also tarned ont of the capital. The speaker did not blame Grant for all this, No; there was a power in the party which would control Hayes is had controlled Grant, if the former should be elected. William M. Evaris was instanced as another republican ostracised by the party on account of bia integrity. He was named for Governor, and was spoken well of by ail honest men in bis party, yet ho was thrown aside for Morgan. “Mr. Kernan concitded with a general defence of Mr, , iiden from the charges of Governor Dix and others, and a reference to his services in reducing the taxes and crushing the Canal Ring. THE OUTSIDE MEETINGS. Notwithstanding the inclement weather and the muddy condition of the streets the outeide meeting? wero very well attended, and though no speakers of note were on hand those who did appear were well ro- ceived, In tho interludes patriotic music was dis- coursed, and if some of the speeches had been hort as the musical overtures the crowd would have Jiked it better Three stonds had been erected, two immediately in front of the Coopor Union building, aod a third in tho space the other side of Fourth avenue, This latter was given up to the Germans, and the crowd of listen. ors surrounding it was remarkable for its quietness, Only one of the German speakers evoked any consid- erable applause, the others addressing themselves to genuine issues and speaking words of conviction. Many of the speakers were listened to with marked attention, and, though but little demonstration of satisfaction was given in cheers, satisfaction was quite evident from the patience of the crowd, which stood through several slight showers and listened to the following gentlemen:— GERMAN SPRAKERS, + Francis V.Enring, Dr. Berthnan, Dr. Merktee, Dr. Freck, Dr. Schulizer, Hon. Germane Hauschel and Mr. Rheim. All of these gentlemen aro representative mon among the Germans, and thei~ words carry an thority with them. Several of the speakers at the stand have been republicans, sad they gave their rea. for leaving that party. oe of them said he sought political favor o: any k.ad, and joined the republican party for the reason that be thought {t contained within Its lines men who were more capable and trustworthy than those identified with Qny other political organization. This impression of his he said had beon removed, not by prejudice but by incontrovertible evidence. He did not like to ac- knowledge to himself--nor doe# any man—that he had made a fatal mistake in judgment, but the conclusion that ho had been guilty in that regard was forced upon him. His calm judgment ot tho caso at present is, that instead of owning the best men, the republican party can bonst of more corraptionists and thieves than any other that hag ever existed. To get these men out of power and pul capable and honest ones tn their places is tho duty of every American citizen, native or foreign born, and he had no doubt the German wing of tho foreign born element would do yeoman’s work in the campaign for Tilden and reform, The Third avenue stand was under the direction of Hon. James Daly and Mr. Edward Duffy, and had the largest crowd. Both front and sides of the stand wero besieged, and some lusty cheering was done, Mr, Charles 8 Jackson, the first speaker, was introduced by Mr. Daly. He arraigned the administration as un- and incompetent, and claimed that the only fon for the country was in ange in the Mabe agement of its affairs. Mr. Keeley followed, and, in his own peculiar vein, showed how simple it was to effect the chengo suggested by Mr. Jackson. Every vote cast for Tilden and Hendricks hastened the de- sired result, and every convert (rom the sins of repub- Keanism made tt more inevitable, Ho advised those who had the welfaro of the Stato at band not to rest satisfied with merely voting ror Ti and Hendricks, but to spare no effort in inducing others to.do tho same, and thus hasten the happy days of prosperity, which seem now to deserted our calendar, Mr. Thomas J. Creamer also spoke, He was followed by Messrs, McClelland, Ford and others. At the Fourth avenue stand Mr. Wheeler introduced Mr. Algernon 8, Sullivan, who spoke at great length, and explained tne fesues involved in tho campaign, and warned his hearers against bemg led from vital questions by false alarms. Messrs, Crow. ley, Popinae, Holcom, Heywentelt and Coleman made short addresses, THE FIREWORKS The pyrotechnic display was very fine, barring that somo of the “pteces,’’ by exposure to the inclement woather had contracted severe colds, and wore not quito ag brilliant as could be wished, &e. THE TORCHLIGHT PROCESSION, ' About twolve torch bearers arrived at the place of meeting just as the meeting was closing. Four brass bands accompanied the procession, which came all the way from Jersey City to assist at the demonstration, The effect, as the long ing of flickering lights ap- proached up Third avenue, was very fine, and the pro- greoted with cheers, Alter forming im the square and resting for while, the procession started tor Jersey again and the great meoting was at an end, TWEED'S RALLY Tho grand rally for Tweed at Centra; Park Gardon Tast night attended by four men, Wh. contem- plated tho empty hall and each other, then adjourned to the bar and then went home. Previous to recent fnancial complications Mr, Tweed’s following was ly somewhat larget every four years i JEROME PARK RACES.
