Just demand be denied, the state legislatures
will have to act. The American Republican,
will no doubt, in time, be able to controul the
subject by their own representatives in Con

i AMERICAN REPUBLICAN Process At
tack accident, Sc. The American Republicans
of the city Of New York had a grand and i'm
posing procession on Friday, in honor of Their
recent political triumph in that city. The
meeting was organized in the Park, by choos-
ing William b. Cozzens, Esq, President, with
proper number of Vice Presidents and Secre-
tarics. An address and resolutions were read
by Mr.. S. Fl. Stuart, and speeches made by
Mr.. Cozzons and Gen. Smith, of Philadelphia,
when the procession formed and moved through
/ the city, occupying more than one hour in
passing given point. The persons composing
/ the procession, says the True Sun, were fine
looking and stalwart, and their banners con-
tanned very spirited appeals to their friends and
supporters. Among the most striking objects
connected with it, was an ci6gy of General
Washington in the Continental unilorm-seve-
raj mounted Indians a beautiful sloop of war,
which fired salutes at different points of the
route, several cars containing large number
of school children-many large bibles, and
several pictures of the American eagle having
in his talons a coon and a cock, favorite en-
blems in the late struggle. full length poI-
trait of Washington, which was exhibited from
dwelling in Clinton place, was cheered with
uncovered heads, and received a salute from
the sloop of war. The whole affair is repre-
scented as an effective display of American Re-
publican feeling and strength. One of the
malshals was attacked during the move of the
procession, by a German, who first used his
fist and then drew knife, when he was imme-
diately arrested and committed. A serious ac-
cident occurred also, occasoned by an explo-
sion on board the Constitution, full rugged
model ship, some 25 feet long, drawn in the
procession by six white horses, and manned by
about twenty men and boys-when in Second
street, near Avenue G, some one on board
dropped spark from cigar into the maya
zine, which exploded, burning and otherwise
injuring the following gentlemen, some serious
! ly and others slightly: Richard Bird, John
Montgomery, jr., julius Monyea, Edwin F.
Monyea, John Palmer, John Parker, Abm
! Armstrong, and two boys from Brooklyn
The clothes and hair of the injured men and
boys were on fire, and one poor fellow had to
be thrown into the gutter before the fire on his
clothes could be extinguishsd. The windows
on both sides Of the street were shattered to
pieces, and the horses taking fright ran con-
siderable distance before they could be refined
up
