Riotous Conduct of Negroes Under Radical Leaders. electri NAVAL OFFICERS AT THE SCENE. Disarmed Whies Appealing for Protection Against Armed Negroes. Conramia, Oct 26, 1876. Tho massing of troops in the upper portion of the State, where the repubifcans claim the blacks are tor- rorized by the whites, to the exciusion of the lower port of the State, where the whites are terrorized by the biacks, led mo to ask Governor Chamberlain by whom and what influences was General Ruger actuated by. bis disposition of tham. The Governor saia:— CHAMBERLAIN ON GENERAL RUGER. “Entirely by his own judgment, 1 have had frequent conferences with the General and have made sugges- tions to which he has listened with marked attention, but without giving me any indications as to what his action would be in the promises. Ihave had invaria- bly to wait and see to find that out. General Ruger is in receipt of communications from members of botn parties throughout the State upon the subject of Woops, and upon these ho generally baseg his tction as to whether military forces are required D the localities from which the applications come. The General’s instructions from Washington leayo \m entirely to his own discretion as to the assign- nent of troops and the management of, military affairs nthe State; and I think,’’ added the Governor, by ray of acompliment, “that he has displayed remark- ble discretion and sound judgment in all ho has done ince he took command here. ? : Of course the Governer thinks so, because the troops aave been sent to the sections of the Stato where they will be of the greatest benefit to bim in moratiy in- timidating the blacks against voung tor Hampton Upon these subjects General Ruger and his staff aro severely reticent. es HOW TROOPS ARR DISTRIBUTED. J ButIam informed, on the other band, by demo- watic authorities, that all applications for troops have © pass through the bands of either Governor Cham- beriain or United States Marshal Wallace, upon whose indorsement, tavorable or unfavorable, General Ruger acts ‘1hbe latter seems to bo the most likely, »8 the disposition of the troops so far has veen sirictly ad- vantageous to Governor Chamberiain’s interest and to the election of A 8. Wallace, the Marshal’s father, to Congress. RADICAL PLANNING, Tho planning and manipulation of the military and the attachés and emissuries of the Department of Justice, and, indeed, the entire machinery of the federal government in the State by Chamberlain and ‘Wallace, rivais in boldness and high-handed usurpation anything ever attempted by their fellow compairi: ta, Kellogg and Packard, in Louisiana, The difference is in favor of the latter, who bad the rich federal patron- age of New Orieans to Ognt for, while Chamberlain and Wallace are making @ desperate struggle over tho prostrate body of a bankrupt Siate. THY ELLENTON APPAIR. Captain Lioyd’s official report ot the Ellenton affair reached hero to-day in the HeRALD. It ix incomplete and vague on some very important points, but particu- in regard to the tearing up ot the Port Royal road, leaving, as it does, the inference that whites hadcomunitted that outrage, It is undisputed that tho rails were torn up by the negroes, who also forced the telegraph operator to leave his post. Mr. Fleming, the Superintendent of the road, applied for troops to protect it and his trains from further violence. Mili- tary officers are usually impartial, and perhaps Cap- tein Lioyd relates as much what he rd as what le saw. He only remained at the scene a day or two when he was relieved by Lieutenant Mills, of the Becond infantry, THE HAMBURG RIOT, A special despatch from Aiken to your correspona- 1 stutes that the following persons from the Hamburg section surrendered themselves to the United States Deputy Marshals yesterday:—R. J. Butler, C. Ham- mond, Thomas Oliver, James Benson, Harrison Butler, Thomas Butleraod Joho Rich. The first four wero Tereasod on bail to appear belore the United Siates Court on the 4th of November. A. Mos! a deino- ¢ratic nominee for coroner at Aiken, also surrendered end was bailed, but Colonel A. C. Butier and Dunbar, with the last ibree trom Hamburg, are still refused bail, Butler and Dunbar are influential men, and their incarceration is probably designed to intim) the whites. District Attorney Corbin was to say to day what course he would pursue as to these, but ho still delays and refuses to disclose anything. It is un- derstood, however, that special charges of shooting have been made by negroes ogainst thom. The conn- sellors of the prisoners, aware that a request for a preliminary oxamination would open the door for un- Jimited fale accusation and partisan testimony against the people, retused to ask for it. The District Attor- ney, too, is shrewd, and will not offer it or release them. He ts sull’ bard at work taking testimon: probably for Jurther arrests or indictments. THY NEGRO OUTLAWK Notwithstanding the proclamations and the presence of the military armed bands of colored men still roam through that section of the country, Night before last five of them, armed with riffes, fired into the house of | an old English gentieman, who lived alone with his wife. They narrowly escaped being killed, but the house was broken open, plundered and all their money, silver and valuables saken by the midnight marauders of Governor Chamberlain's militia, The price of the Henan to-day and henceforth wilt be three cents. & DEMOCRATIC MEBTING IN BEAUFORT BROKEN UP--SPEAKING PREVENTED BY TURBULENT NEGRORS UNDER RADICAL LEADERS—NAVAL OFFICERS PRESENT AND EXPECTED TO TES- TIFY CONCERNING THE AFFAIR. Beavronr, 8. C., Oct. 26, 1876. General Hampton and several speakers, unaccom- panied by any escort, arrived here last night end ’@ announced to speak to-day. His Feception by tho negrocs at Early Branch, tn this county, yes'erday, was a great sur- prise so the republicans bere, ana when they earned that nearly every negro at the mocting yes. torday had deciared himself andeceived and bis inten- tion to vote for Hampton, they determined to prevent a similar catastrophe here to-day if possible, ospecially as the republican meet held bere jast Saturday, at which slozo, Brown, Congressimau Smalls and other leaders spoke, was a failure, less than = thirty negro attending. In accord. ance with this determination opposition meetings ‘wore attempted to be held to-day at points o1 do the town. The colored Lieutenant Governor, Gieaves, and others busied themselves during the morning guard: Ing the streets and forbidding their followers coming lo. tbe democrating meeting. thers, aud particularly one J. M. Crowlut, a white carpet bagger, openly de- tlared his intention to preveut Judge Cooke, repabii- pan, from speaking or to break up tbe meeting. DEMOCRATIC MERTING BROKEN UP, Despite all th eiforts, however, at least 400 agsomblea in front of t ub house when the meeting opened, and they heard General Hampton in res jt but Tuptions. Colonel cot of his remarks quoted Chamberlain, Eltiott, Dwi 1d Cardozo's ee as to the bad character of @ach othor, and the disorder at once began under the immediate direction of Langly, a pure bivoded vegro, who was convicted of staiting batiot boxes a fow years Ago and imprisoned for two years, but pardoued by President Grant at the expiration of one, and is now Auditor of this coa FORCED TO RETIRE, After a half hour's tutile endeavor to secure order and silence Youmans retired from the stage without completing his speech. Jadge Cooke was then introduced as a republican, but Langiy industriously whispered about among his ioi- lowers that Cooke was really a democrat and a traitor and gavo orders to prevent nim irom making Dimmselt heard, Cooke still endeavored w speak, but was not allowed (o do so. As tho negroes were in- creasing in their yelis he also retired, alter some time, without bavi red ove audible senten The nm were elated at bis scomiture, as he chiefly instrumental in con- 1 hegroes in all ober counties to Hampton, and were joud in their insults and er Colonel J.

The authorities and policemen who were present ci could not or would net preserve order, and tho ren ing speakers declined to face the storm of insults aud yells 10 no purpose, Generai Hampton kindly bade tie negrovs tarewell, with good wishes for welfare, aud ‘told them, im conclusion, they bad done more to clect bim to-day than had been by the white people of any one county State, NAVY OFFICERS PRESENT. Ne informed them of the tact, of which they had been kept up to that time in ignorance, that a party o1 eight or ten officers of the fleet at Port Royal had been present throughout the meeting in citizens’ dress, and that they had tlremselves witnessed the whole disgraceful scene unobserved. and expressed their indignation at what they had seen and would be cal ed upon to give their testimony on the lawless con- duct of the crowa, The mob then dispersed, the ne- groes being evidently startled at (he turn affairs had tuken, as there are no United States troops stationed in this county, and they firmly believed there was uot a soldier or officer nearer than the fleet, tweive miles down the harbor. GENERAL HAMYTON’S AVPH AL. In view of the conduct of the negroes to-day, and tn accordance with repeated representations made to bim as to the necessity jor such action, General Hampton velegraphed General Ruger this evening a reqnest to send one or more companies of troops to this county at once for the purpose of protecting colored democrats, who are threatened hoarly. NOTICEANLE PACTS. The following points ure worthy of notice, namely :— ‘This was a democratic meeting, to which the republi- caus were invited, and any republican speaker who de- sired to do so Was requested to speak. Even Langly was pressed to take the xtand and say truly what he wished. He rotused to do so. Second—The speakers were wholly without escort, nota single mounted man or other white save citizens ‘of the town was present, and these contrivuted bat a sinall proportion of the audience. Third—Lieutenant Governor Gleayes wos present in the town; Sammy Green, Senator from this county, and Sherif! Wilson were on the spot, yet not ono of them made the slightest effort to stop We riot, Fourth—All_ these tacts can be substantiated by tho eight United States naval ollicers who were present in the honse and saw all that occurred.

Cuan teston, Oct, 26, 1876, The twenty-seven white voters of James Island have addressed a lettor to the Democratic Executive Committee setting forth the following facts:— WHITE MEN'S APPRAL While the white voting population of the island is only twenty-seven, entirely democrats, the colored voting popu Intlon amounis to 340, almost entirely republicans.

T. W. MR, SAXFORD’S LETTER. Danny, Conn., Oct, 21, 1876, Dear Mr. Wrep—I told you, when, passing through New York yesterday, that 1 should write you more fully my views on political matters from a Soutnern standpoint, and now do so while tho subject is on my mind, You know how I have often deplored much that has been done in the Southern States by the federal ad- ministration through mistaken policy or bad advice, and bave bad frequent occasion to earnestly combat many of the irresponsible adventurers who, under the republican flag, have too frequently attained to place and power there, bringing so much odium and scandal tothe party and mischief to the South, Devuting myself since my return from Belgium in 1869 to the development of large landed property in Florida and other States, I have felt a keen interest in their prosperity, and have had, and have now, no in- terests to subserve save those which would add to it and to the general welfare of the South, the basis of which must bo peace, security to life and property and public confidence therein at the North. And it Is on this ground I placo myself when I say to you that | consider the transter at this time of tho federal administration of the government to the dem- ocratic party would be a positive calamity to tho South, would check the flow of capital and immigra- tion finally well started and steadily augmenting thither, and cause fresh perturbations of clemenis now gonerally settling to rest and which need to be per- mitted to rest. Capital, always timid, had for years past been fright- ened off from the South by the partisan outerics and Joilties Of both sides; but the vast field there for luern- tive investment and its remarkable development, with A more general diffusion of means of comiort and well being than ever before known had, togetuer with “hard times’? North, attracted more attention to it, and crowds of people are now seeking in its wonderiul aud permanent resources for comiort and wealth a living denied them in industrial aud commereial cen- tres at the North. An era of unprecedented prosperity seemed opening for it, which, in my opinion, would be seriously compromised and retarded by democratic success, ‘The South hasarrived at a poms (save in exceptional cases), where it needs to bo jet alone and aliowed to work out its own cure trom the tomporary ilis it bears—tbe resulis of te war and the tremendous social and political revolution that has «i over it.

THK FINANCIAL QUES And on this subject of discredit abroad allow me to say afow words. 1 lauded yesterday from the Russia, and within thirty days past bave conversed with many prominent capttalisis and bankers (members of the Syndicate included), on both sides of tbe Channel, who: interested in Americay securities, and in these couterences [ was struck with the general feeling of uncerta nty and distrust manifested in the contingency of tho change of the federal administration into dem- ocratic hanas and the opprehensious excited by the possible effect of Southern ipiluences upon 1% This seemed to be considered as inflation, and the probabio incroase of the natioual debs through the admission of untold amounts of Southern claims and of some possi- bie tinkering of the | deot (and credit) is based, And here [ would add further that, pleading ns 1 do when abroad, whenever suitable occasion offers, the cause of the South with Eurovean captialists, as a lu- crative field for investment, 1 bave been imprensed with the upiversal distrust—i am sorry to say I could almostadd repugnance-—with which the very words “Southern States” 18 met. The sympathy with whiek the governing cl: abroad in their interests, in secession times, encoura; the ready repudiation of constitutional obligations is utterly Wanting now in the financial classes there, who, with bitter memories besides of former repudia- tions of State debts, will, for a long time to come, ven- ture no money in Southern securities. J, tor one, do hot regret It, Good credit would encourage borrowing and promote extravagant cxpenditure ; the South ts rap- idly earuing all she can peed aud will be the better of for her discredit abroad, and to the matter I attach no ‘importance, as L have no interest in the Syndicate, in the possible dopreciation of our credit abroad in the unknown abyss of democratic rule, We should be much better off if we kept our deot in our owa bands, But l am a little surprised at tho letter of our astute friend, Mr, Belmont, which | have just read, Carefully and cautiously as it avoids the real point at issue [ think his hopes as a democrat bave a littic dulled his care as a banker, whose principals, with no political sym- pathies to warp, inay possibly take a diferent view of the results of the olection than heaffectsto dol At any rate, tho cable gives readier means for positive daia with one line on that Eead than bis Jong and aple dissertation | ° . . . . . . A part of the class of professional politicians I havo reierred to, whose violence and talign intluence in secession times I fear to see again repeated, the dem. ocratic, or conservative party us it calls itself South in aiflereuce to the old line whigs, comprises many of the very best men im the country, among thom all the meimbers of that glorious old whig party who now reluctantly serve with the party they combatted so patrioticaily for the Unton, til tho war fixed the cause of secevsion on the land. J count in its ranks many of my best friends South, men I would go far to servo. A republican, I have veen more than once tendered their party support and assured election to bigh places and dechued, lam none the less proud of the conidence and liberaluy displayed, which honored themecives as much as me, Aud in their own interests I would seck in my humble sphere to save them from themselves and the inevi- table pernicious consequences of democratic rule upon the prosperity of the South, whicb, left to itself, will take care of itself, and in a very few yeurs will sco it the more solidly prosperous portion of our Republic, ag it will be pohtically the most powerful. Tfear little for my own State, Florida, occurs, It has reached a point of solid bi nent growth and prosperity whieh noth: earthquake would shatter, while, howeve to political’ mprovement.” But | do fear to! in the South generaliy, which I wish to see, should be, on the same road to wealth, undisturbed by the perturbation and distrust and legislation which will fotiow the accession to power at Washington of the democratic party. RESULTS OF PROTECTION. A few items as to the results of protection to in industry may not be out of place here. The , Whence I have Just landed, had, itke most ships from Europe, but a smali amount of manu! tured goods on Ireight. The agent at Queenstown told me their treights outward hurdly paid for the ban- dling, while they were crammed with proauce and American articles inward at high rates. ‘How we are to pay for these prodigious American imports,” said our good Captain Cook, ‘bothers me.” On board the steamer were several Englishmen, coming with their capital to erect milix tor lost cus- tomers and, to be numbered among our home con- sutners—most remarkabie among all, the repregenta- tives of an iron company alone, with £300,000 capital, to erect b: furnaces and iron works in East Tounessco. Another was associate in one of the large English car- pet establisbwents and said bis firm was going to erect a mill here. Some Sheflield people told me that two large cutlery establish ments were in course of erection by Sheffield manuiacturers in this country; that after importing from us knife blades for English cutlery they were coming to profit by our more tuteiligent labor and labor saving machinery whieh their work unions prot.ibited the use oat home. 1 could multiply sim- ilar instances; in fine, | have thus incidentally learned of six large manufacturing establishments erecting north, or about to be, with English captial. Again, a genticinan from New Zeaiand on board told me that he landed thence at Sau Frapeisco by the monthly steamer w:th 205 passengers on their way (6 England, mostly to buy goods; that, attracted by the superiority or cheapness of th American articles, he had purchased some on bis way through (he mentioned a large imvoico of crosscut saws among other things), but now had returned to complete purchases of manufactured goods for his New England trade, which he could make to better advantage bere than in bis lormer market—England—which he remarked scemed to have made no improvement in twenty years compared with tho progress bere; and be sad with agsigh that the probavility was their people would soon abandon England tor their sup- plies, which, he added, we could more advantageously furnish to them; and, to complete the picture, an English apostle of tree trade was on his way over to eolzbten us as to the prejudico—this time in @ humanitarian point of view—caused by our villapous protective laws, Ihave been inthis centre of manufacturing indos- try of Couneeticut, the Naugatuck Valley, but thirty- six hours, and what 1 bave loarned hero is more wou. dertul still as to the good results of protection to our people and manulucturors. The first three men | met in the streets had each to toll me a tale of unexpected orders irom England for their products, exhibited atthe Centennial Moeting later, at friend’s office, a number of manu- facturers, and making iuquiries on this subject, Lcame to the: conclusion oa their statements that of the 100 or 150 different agticles of manutacture in this vailey one-third and perhaps one-half were now in de- mand or salable abroad where but two or threo were twenty years ago. What more amazed me was the fact give’ by one of them, that a friend of bis had re- ceived a recent order from England tor portable steam epgines “We have them cheaper here,” wrote bis correspondent, “but yours are better, and better mate.”? ‘There wero several very intelligent English man’ facturers on board with whom I conversed on this paintul subject of the loss of ther markets with us All admittod that protection had commenced the work which had been completed by the superior intelligence and inventive spirit of our Workmen, which is stimu- lated to produce Jabor saving mvchines which their English trades unions will vot permit to work, aud antl- whatever cipated ecrious competition from us in other markets. HS. 8. MASS MEETING AT FORDHAM. A mass meoting was heid at Kerns’ Hall, Fordham, last evening, under the auspices of the Tammany Asso- ciation of the Twenty-fourth ward, for tne purpose of ratilying the national, State and county tickets, As it had been widely advertised shat Mr. John Kolly and other prominent members of the democratic party would be present the citizens tarned out iu jarge num- bers, including a jew torchlight companies, notwith- standing the fact that the monster torehlight proces- sion in the city attracted a beavy proportion ot the campagn organizations jn the wonexed district, Shortly att eight o’slock = tho —meeting was called to order, when the introduction by the Chairman of Mr, John Kelly evoked a storm of applanse which lasted jor some seconds, and then fou ‘ent in cheer ulter cheer for the Grand 3: ma of the Tammany Society. In the course of hisremarks Mr. Kelly spoke of the progress of the present cam- paign on the part of the democracy, and satd that in the city and county of New York, as weil as through. out the State, the public meetings were more largely attonded than had ever been witnessed before since the organization of the government, This showed the upmistakeable earnestness of the people im the efforts now being made by the democratic party to restore she country to its former prosperity and happiness, He alluded to the great distress under which the country was suffering at the present tim and traced its source to t arty whieh has been in fn years, and which had shown its ub the aflairs peopie. In making an earnest appeai tor the peopio of the Southern States and after alluding to the oppressive measures which have been and are being brought to bear against the citizens in kome portions of that section, he said it was time that thas course should stop, and the peoplo of tu whole country are prepared to say that it must sto; He couciuded by saying that if che people are oaly tr to themsrives on the 7in of November next the cow try will agai be pros and happy, as it was white under tho régime of the demoeratic party. Addresses were also delivered by Hon, Cla: kaon N, Potter, Homry D, Purroy and othora, lation upou which our present | TILDEN AND TAMMANY. Rumors of a Breach Between the Gov- ernor and John Kelly. THE STORIES. DENIED What Mr. Tilden, Mr. Kelly, Colonel Pelton, Seeretary King and Mayor Wickham Say. . Rumors of a breach between Governor Tilden and Jobn Kelly found their way into an afternoon paper yesterday, and created considerable excitement among | democrats and republicans alike, It was reported | that Governor Tilden, fearing treachery on the part of | John Kelly and bis followers, had called a meet- ing of his friends, at his residence on Gramercy Park, on last Tu the object of which, it . was to induce tho Boss to resign the leadership of Tammany Hall, and ; also to request some of the objectionable Tammany | candidates to withdraw from the field. The report further said that Governor Tild in case of Kelly’s refusal to comply with his demands, would | not object to a combination which would sup- port Mr. Ely for Mayor and opposo the rest of the Tammany ticket. This, in connection with the statement credited to Jobn Kelly that he intended to retire from the leadership of Tammany after the No- vember olection, caused a great deal of surmise, From | the following interviow« with those who are most in- terested there scems to be no foundation for the report. | GOVERNOR TILDEN DENIES 17. While Governor Tilden was on the grand stand dur- ing the procession, a Hxtatp reporter briefly referred to the story ag to tho meeting at his house and the | charge made that tnere was a “break” between him, solt and Mr. Kelly on the national ticket. The Goy- ervor quietly remarked:—‘I know of no such meet- ing having been held. There is no foundation what- ever for the story.” WHAT JOHN KELLY SATS. In the course ‘of his speech at the democratic mass meeting held in the Twenty-fourth ward last night, as described clsowhere, Mr. Kelly took occasion to eulogize Governor Tilden aman of affairs—ono thoroughly versed in al! that pertains to the aaminis- tration of government. Né6 man, he said, knew tho intricacies of the ring, the forum and tho lobby, better than Governor Tilden. In conclusion Mr. Kelly declared the Governor to be the most assiduous stu- dent of political economy the country had produced | since the days of Thomas Jefferson. The impression produced on all who heard Mr. Kelly’s speech was that whatever private feelings of dissatisiaction might exist between the ‘Boss’ and the Presidential candidate of the democracy there certainly wa: a determination to keep them out of view inthe cam- pain. Mr, Kelly vory ill while speaking, and im- mediately his address was finished took a private train to the Grand Central depot and thence made his way home in a hack, without viewing the procession, and betook himself to bed. JOHN MORRISSEY’S VIEWS, Areporter calied on Mr, Morrissey and asked him what he knew of the reported split in the Tammany ranks 10 opposition to Governor Tilden. He said that ail he knew of it he saw in an evening paper. He is, and always was, in favor of Tilden, aud his efforts to bring about a union of the democracy in this city wore made in his interest. Local squabbles, ho said, wero of minor importance, and should not be allowed to in- fluence the Presidential election. Unly a few of the mmor politicians had heard of the reported break and the majority of those laughed and said there was nothing in 1%, One man, who seemed to bolicve in it, said there wore many strange things done in Tammany Hall lately and some that he could not understand. Ono of John Kolly’s most bitter foos, he said, had been brought from his farm in Connecticut and placed, at Kelly's request, in nomination for Assembly. This man he krew to be a warm friend of ex-Governor Morgan, and he was very surothat Morgan would put out money to aid in his election, That is cniy a straw, but it shows something. Thero are other things, too, that make such a break not improbable. Kelly bad all along pre- dicted that Governor Tilden could not carry New York State if he was made tho nomineo at St Louls; and no man cares to bo a false propbot. “You see Tilden’s election means the end of John Kelly’s rulo in Tammany Hall, for the first thing Tilden would do would be to smash up that organization. In view of Kelly’s sirong opposition to Tilden’s nomination it is only natural | to suppose that bo would preter to be mado out a true prophet and hold the reins over Tammany to being compelled to step down and out or trust himeeil to the mercies of Governor Tilden, which he canaot ox- pect to be very tender, ’” MAYOR WICKHAM’S DENIAL, Mayor Wickham when asked about tho alleged break laughed derisively. “Why,” said he, “it ts the most absurd story | bave heard during the campaign. 1 know tbo statements coutaimed iu that article to bo unqualiiiedly jaise. 1t is a he made of whole cloth, I ‘was Not present at any meeting at Gramercy Park, and 1 do not believe thore was any such meeting. 1n fact, 1 know there was not.’ JAMES E.

Mr. Morrison was found by a Heratp reporter, ‘ott House, prepar- one of the marshals of the procession, n, besides beg a prom- inent memver of the Central Tilden and Hendrick: Club, is a member of the Tammany Hall Commitee on Organization.

Me Morrison stated that he had been throughout the afternoon yesterday in communication with the persons who, of all gthers, would knew of such a split as was talked of, ad any occurred, but not a hint of such a thing dropped from any of their lips. He had not the slightest hesitation in pronouncing the statement a baseless fabrication, COLONEL PRLTON’S CONTRADICTION, Colonel Peiton, the Governor's nephew and private secretary, when spoken to about the matter, said ¢tn- phatically ;—“There is not a particle ot truth in tha story. ‘There never was such a meeting at the Goy- crnor's house or any piace else, mor bus there at y time been any occasion tor such a meeting. allegation that tho Governor has suspected tho good faith of Mr. holly in this campaign not the lightest foundation in fact, Mr, Kelly ia doing all that he can toturtber the interests of the national Ueket, and it {s the shcerest folly to got up these cock and bull stories about there being any trouble,” SECRETARY KING. Secretary King, of the National Campaign Commit- tee, hus heard vothing of such a break, although in constant communication with Mr. Tilden’s intimate friends and managers. The thing, he end, was ub- surd upon its very face, and be had po doubt of its ut ter falsehood.

Tho republicans did not put im an appearance,although anxiously looked for, Their Nominating Committee was appointed by District At- torney Phelps, chairman of the County Conyeution, at ten o'clock on Wednesday night, and it was said thay they had no timo to organize and appoint a sub-com- mittee to confer with outside parties opposed to Tam- many Hall, This movement, however, was considerod ‘n certain quarters an simply a ruso to delay the chances of a combination ticket, Others asserted with an equal amount of confidence that the whole scheme had been fuliy consummated, and that the Convention on Tuosday night next would undoubtedly indorse Andrew H. Green tor the Mayoralty. . ‘Tho barroom and vestibule of the Astor House were crowded with local politicians anxious to warcertain what was inthe wind.

It was agreed that the three sub- committees should report back in tbe afternoon to their respective conierence organizations in order to Teceive definite instructions s0 as to sottle up the umion definitely one way or the other at eleven o'clock to-day, The meeting then adjourned. TH ANTI-TAMMANTITES afterward met at the office of George H. Purser, No. 82 Nawsau street, where the {ull conieremce committee Was present, A general discussion took place to the chances of a combination ticket. A univerral sen- liment was expressed against running a third ticket ip case the republicans reluse to enter into a cowbina- tion, It will thus be easily seen that Tilden and Tam- peay will have clear sailing, as 100,000 votes can then Polled in this city for the county, State and na- tional democratic tickets The republicans seem to count upoa the probability of having three tickets in the field; bus the anti-Tammanyites yesterday almost unanimously agreed upon the alternative of backing Out of the’contest at once if the republicans sboull fail to come to an agreement with them. A now sub-committee on conference was apppointed, as follows:—Emanuel B. George n Parser, Williom E. Mitchell, Peter Bowe and John Rowgge, the former committee Laving been removed, THR INDEPENDENT CITIZENS. The full conference committee from the independ- ent citizens’ party assembled at No, 166 Fiith avenue, atiour o'clock im the atvernoon. It was thix organ- ization that first formally placed Comptroller Green in the field at the Cooper institute gathering. They have been busily engaged, trom that time up to the present, in working up the canvass for Mr. Green. At the meeting yesterday afternoon igreement wa made that positi eps should be taken to-di direction or another, as to tho placing of an opposition | ticket in the field, THE GERMANS, The Ottendorfer German conference committee met at No, 209 Third avenue, and their sub-commitice was authorized to continue sessions to-day at the Astor House, They were also directed to preseut the pame of Andrew H.

INDEPEN: DENT REPUBLICANS, A STORMY COUNTY CONVENTION SESSION WHICH ALL BUT ENDED IN 4 ROW. The members 0! the independent republican party held their County Convention last evening in Sciepco Hall, To say the least, it was of a most disorderly character, ana set completely at deflance ail attempts on the part of the chairman to preserve order, and, at one stage of the proceedings, a regular row seemed imminent, After 4 good deal of running talk, In whieh the majority of those present took a lively part, Mr. 3. Lecompte was ciosen temporary chair- | man, and, baving got matters somewhat quietea, he proceeded to state that, in consequence of rumor | which had been set afloat tothe effect that they w | democrats instead of republicans, he felt bound to | deny that the organization had any intention of acting am any way with the democratic party, and were, us | he termed it, “republicans to the backbone.” Hero | severai voices yelled out, *That’s Cornell’s doing, but we are glad wo are clear of him.’’ Several members jumped to the floor at once and insisted on ‘eing beard, and for a time tho wildest contusion prevailed, during which the name of the former chairman, Mr. Thorne, was used in auy other than a parliamentary manner, The members then seemed to divide into two factions, and a lively timo ensued. Yelis, hoots and catcalis, which could be plainly beard in’ tho street, were indulged in, despito every eflort of Mr. Lecompte to establish order. Then | the secretary moved an udjournment, which was with general distavor. Resolution after resolution offered, as well as amendment after amendment, with- out any one being able to understand whica was which, At length a resolution, which was read for at least the sixth time, was adopted authorizing the ap- pointment of a committee of one from each Assembly isirict to confer with all organizations opposed to mmuny Hall. 1t was also resolved, after another stormy debate, that the organization rea! republican nominecs, both national aod State, and pledge its best efforts to use all honorable means to elect the same, A member thon arose and moved that the nomina- tion of Comptroller Groen tor Mayor te in- aorsed by the Convention, Hero anotner scene occurred, during which one mem- ber offered a resolution that another momber be chucked down stairs jor hig disorderly conduct and attempts to breed dissension in the Convention, The secretary here jumped to his feet, and with a hugo stick pounded away on the table, but failed to restore order, and the Convention broke up in the most dis- orderly several of the members calling each other names that would scarcoly bear mentioning. THE CAMPAIGN COMMITTEES, Of tne large numbers of letters reccived yesterday at democratic headquarters there was not one that did notcontain cheering news. From Oregon the news comes that 200 clubs havo been organized in the State, aud that the democratic voters there are on. hu- siastically vigilant California also sends good news to the commitiee, The latest from Indiana i that the party will have 15,000 majority tuere—perhaps more, Ubto and Rhode Island democrats are bopetul, and the voters of Connecticut promise to do theirduty, Gov- ernor Tilden called in during the day, and his pleasant smile as he passad along augured bim well satistied with the prospects, Local politics seemed to bo a for- bidden topic of conversation in the inner rooms, but the jesser lights of the political world in the general reception rooms and corridors of tho hotel expressed themeelves trecly and with a woudorfal dif- Jerouce of opinion, One gentioman thought that tho ticket was an excellent one. Another thought that tt was not, At one time the discussion grew quite ex- citing, and a prominent gentleman in politics, who was. ap amused listever, and who, it appeared, had not for- gotten the teachings of his early youth, turned to tbe writer ana said that the discussion of local politics reminded him of the nursery rhyino to tho effect that— candidate and ono don’t like that, but when it comes down to election day they will all vote for Uncle Samuel.” The republican committec rooms were crowded yesterday. Mr. Chandier and Governor McOor- mick were both on duty, and the latter said to. tho writer that 16 was ono the busiest gays of the campaign. Mr. Tituen’s letter on tho “rebel war debt’ was freely discussed in the outer rooms, aud it was thought that, while he could promise for bimselt, ho could not for the party at his back. Baid one gentleman, “It '8 the syirit of the demo- cratic party that contains the danger, and, of course, Mr, Tilden represonts that spirit, bat he can no moro control itthau 1can,’? It was stated that Mr. Schurz will write a lotter to the Germans in repiy to the ove written by Mr. Belmont. Wisconsin has been placed among the States sure for Hayes, as is also Connecti- cut. Louisiana and Fiornda are looked upon as doubt jul, In regard to jocal polities, it seems to be very gen- erally beileved that a anion with anti-Tammduy will be made, notwithstanding there are many prominent city /republicans opposed to it A LETTER FROM THE EDITOR OF THE FREEMAN'S JOURNAL, New York, Oct. 26, 1876.

Mr. Lonp—Yes; { am surprised to hear that a num- ber of Irishmen who have sapported the democratic ticket all along will vote against Tilden, Q. What's the canse of that? A: Ido not know unless it be from the influence of the Freeman's Journal, the oditor of which paper is opposed to Tilden, and whom 1 met on the train com- sng this way a short time ago. 6 Then the Irish cannot be relied upon as solid for Tilden ?

As you know, | havo steadily, strongly, but with no pretence of an enthusiasm that would be ridiculou urged on all good citizens of the United States thal may care for my opinion that tho election of Messrs. ‘Tilden and Hendricks in relessing the people of the Southern States from the cruel oppression they are suffering will markedly enhunce tho business prosper- ily of tue Whole country and give us “better times. ‘As to the “hidden power (hat actuates the irts! if Mr, Lord will become well acqaaintea with them he will find that it 18 the same “hidden power” that ac- tuates ali other jntelligent and honorable classes of men.

AL a respectfully, yours, THE DEMOCRATIC. DISPLAY. « Union Square Crowded with Enthusiastic People Last Night. THE TORCHLIGHT PROCESSION, Great Ovation to Governor Tilden by the Multitude. —_— Tho democratic torchlight procession last evening was one of the grandest demonstrations of its king ever witnessed in this city. Aithough in the matter of banners and transparencies there was not the lavish display that characterized the famous turnout of the followers of Tammany Hall in November, 1868, ‘the numbers in the procession were fully as great and the enthusiasm far more intense and sincere. The procession was managed with great skill, and pot an event occurred from the time it started till the last club bad passed the grand stand at Union square to mar the Larmony and good order of the occasion. Probably there hat never been a political demonstration since that of 1868 which drow together so vast a crowd. Tho sidewalks of the strects through which it was known that the procession would pass were literally packed with people fully an hour before the hour fixed for the beginning of the march had that had seized upon them as colgns of vantage whence & good view of tho pageant could be obtained. Sevoral houses on the route were brilliantly illuminated ta honor of the uccasion, the Manhattan Ciub being es pecially distinguished for the magnificence of its dis play, every window of the huge mansion being lit up wit row of gas jets, while over the letters “‘M. C.,’’ intertwined in jets, made the stroe in the immediate viemity as bright as day, THR ENTHUSIASM OF THK PEOPLE along the route while the procession was in motion was intense, and trom the time the imme began its march, the cheering was incessan block to block the cheers rolled along ike the wavei of thevcean, The route of march was from Washington ha which was the chief rendezvous of the clubs, up Fiftt avenue to Thirty-fourih street, down Thirty-fourtt street to Madison avenue, down Madison avenue Twenty-third street to Third avenue, down Third ay enue to Fourteenth sirevt and up to Fourth avenue to Union square.

The grand stand was directly in front of the Svorett House, facing the park, and was made brilliant by several beacon lights, which lit up the entire plaza from end to end. 1t would ve failing far sbert of the mark to call the mass of people that were congregated in the square acrowd. It was a multitude, Such « gathering has never been seen in the square 12 many = years. As far as the oye could reach—and tho square was ht ug on all sides by tbe fireworks ond tne Deacon lights—there stretched out on all sides a co! pact mass of human betugs so tightly wedged togest that even tue large force of police that were on hand to preserve order and make a way for the procession were unable for a long time to make the slightest im- pression upon itin the way of cutting out a pathway. Even the grand stand at times was in danger of being carried away, hike a ship in the breakers of the sea whenever a sudden surge of the crowds in the Tear pitched tg people in tront agaipstit. The police several times Were swept oll their fect, and disappeared odily under the stand with several others, whose mig> fortune it was to be so near that resistance to pres- suro irom behind was mere child’s play, As the head of the procession was scen debouching trom Fourteenth street into the square the crush im the plaza became po-itively dangerous, and at one time it seemed as though there would be loss of Iife from the crush. Happily the multiade were, though often suffering untold agony from thoir sicua- tion, tm good humor, and each one tried his best to ake his netghbor's tortures a8 cniurabie ag ible making as mach elbow roum as could be, The de- sire to give Governor Tilden a hearty greoting appeared to make every one oblivions to sei, When he fia made bis appearance on the strect the scene that en sued was absolutely indescribable, Mit, TILDEN’S RACEPTION. The moment he was deseried, attended by tht marshals, coming out of the Everett House, a grane push toward him was mado by the crowd in the real of the stand, which taxed the energy 01 the police « 148 utmost to repel, While the cheers that greetou bits were hearty, ringing cheers that showed that the crowds were in downright earnest in their welcome. The maltitade in the plaza, on hearing the ohéers of the crowd near the hotel Knew what they meant, ahd, as they could not see the Governor, their expectatioa was made all the greater, do, when he finally reached the stand and came forward on the platform the thasiasw know no bounds, Sach cheering was never heard 11 New York betore, It was not ove, two or three cheers by which he was grecied us ho stood, bat in hand, bewing his acknowledgmente it one long serics of cheers that appeared to run to- ther, one into the other, each more vociferous than the other. If any one present ever betore doubted the enthusiasm that ha oxelted over Til den among the democratic mai bis doubts muat have been swept to the winds as he witnessed the ex- citing scenes about him and heard the cheering that rolied up and down the square, and that even be- fore ceasing jor an instant was caught up by tho crowds afar off on Broadway an Fourta avenue, only to find tional volame ag it rolled back whence it had started, Tne procession took over two hours anda hall pass- ing a given point, and its marcli s| was, as a rule, a Taptd one, TI Ing mottoes ‘he banners of tho various clu! hie Goddess ot Liberty aad Brother Jon- atban in tue.r car called out repeated cheers ax the. sged the stand.
