although the call for the meeting was circulated
but for short time previous, that large hall was
crowded to Overlooking with band of as ardent,
determined Wings as we ever saw assembled.
On calling the meeting to order, PETER L.
MENUS, Esq, was elected Chairman of the
Meeting by reclamation The following persons
were then chosen Vice Presidents:
y " s. S So1Ssos 8 8. K + Hewlett.
j. II. WILLIAMS, ". H. BELL,
J. HARRIoTT, GEORGE EIcHELL,
n. j. BOYD. r ADDISON,
The following Secretaries were then elected

The call of the meeting was then read by one
of the Secretaries. No sooner was the name of
HENRY CLAY pronounced, as the Wing Candi-
date for the Presidency in 1914, than the assem-
bled crowd burst into of reclamation,
which was continued for many minutes, and was
followed by NINE deafening cheers for the Great
Statesman of the West.
PHILIP HONE, Esq, then, in behalf Of the
Delegation from this city to the Nominating Con-
vention at Syracuse, reported the nominations
that Convention had made for the highest stations
in the State and in the Union. He accompanied
his report with clear and eloquent sketch of the
proceedings of the Convention. Of the CLAY
put into their hands by those who sent them
there, Mr.. HONE said the Convention had
wrought Candidate for the Presidency of the
United States, and at the proper tire, he said,
amid tho loud ckeors of the audience, from this
clay would be modelled beautiful, enchanting
statue, Of most majestic symmetry, which would
command the admiration of the whole length and
breadth of the land AS to the candidate for
Governor Mr.. HONE said the whole delegation
from this city had laid upon the table their votes
for LUTHER BRADIsH and he was nominated by
the Convention. The rumor that had been circu-
lated of disunon in the Wing ranks at that Con
vention, he said, were utterly groundless. Mem
bers of that body certainly had their preferences;
but both there and throughout the Empire State,
said he, there is no more division the name
of LUTHER BRADIsH than there is on that of
HENRY CLAY The whole State knows him
to be honest, capable and acceptable, and the
people of every section of the State will give him
their Jealous and unanimous support.
Mr.. HONE read from papers, published in the
Southern tier Of Counties the strongest expressions
of appreciation of the nominations of the Syracuse
Convention, and Of full confidence in the ability
and qualifications of Hon. GABRIEI. FURMAN for
the Office of Lieutenant Governor of the Empire
State. The Wings of the Southern Counties had
no desire to trust their hopes to Young in
political service, though old in political depravity
nor would they consent to serve under The Eagg-
not of their country, all covered with stars and
stripes. but--the Flagg of the Auctioneer, waving
in disgrace the public works-the Eagg o!
one who had already sold for $4,000 finished
Railroad which had cost the people of the State
full 100000. The Members of the Convention
had also welcomed, with hearty thanks for their
patriotic services, the returning Wing Members o.
Congress and, as their closing duty, at once mos
agreeable and easy, they had taken up the CRY
which was rolling on. from the rising of the Sur
TO its going down, and shouted to all the State as
the State had already shouted TO them, HENRY
CLAY FOR PRESIDENT IN 1874" The proceed
ngs of the meeting were here interrupted for man,
minutes by loudly repeated shouts which shook
the walls of old National Hail. and by uncounteS
cheers for the great Champion of the Principles
of tho Wings of the United States. In conclud
ing his remarks, Mr.. HONE proposed three cheers
70, CLAY, BRADtsH and FURMAN, which were
given, with hearty good will, three times over
In the course of his remarks, Mr. HONE read the
following letter from Mr.. CoLLYER, in answer tt
an invitation to be present at the meeting.
