Immense and glorious rally III the wings
OF Boston MT Faneuil Han.
From the Atlas of Saturday
The old Cradle OF Liberty was thronged, lest
night, to its utmost capacity, by firm, unshrlnk-
ing, and unwavering Whigs-resolyed, IN then
inmost hearts, whatever reverses OF unpFopltlous
circumstances have appeared to threaten, to
sand BIZ the Constitution and the Laws-the Un-
;on as il ;-tha Freedom of Man-Protecticn to
honest Industry, and these vital principles which
alone can secure the prosperity, or even the pre-
seryation Of our free country. II was such &
collection of honest, intelligent and patriotic
Americans, as would have gladdened the heart OF
every lover OF the human race to gaze upon. The
tremendous crowd-the spirit they displayed
the energy and resolution which were stamped on
every CONFERENCE.-THE evinced a stern, manly
and Interchangeable Observation-Disclosures other
States may have been false to their :rust-to re-
cord the sacred and unalterabe decree OF good
and honored Old Massachusetts,, against The
spread of Slarary-for black men or white men
against the impove.ishing and degrading poll
cy of Free Trade, against the resignation of the
destinies Of our beloved Country TO demagogues.
At a little after seven O'Clock, this vast Assem-
blage was c.lled to order by john L. Dimmock,
ESQ. and Hon. ABBorr LAWRENCE was unani-
mously called to the Chair. Hon. Charles F.
Adams and John L. Dimmock, Esqs.. were ap-
pointed Vice Presidents and Messrs. George O..
Smith. William Harris and Allen Shepherd, Sec
retaries.
After nine most deaiening and heartfelt cheers
had been given for Hon. DANIEL WEBSTER, the
Chairman, Hon. Abbott Lawrence addressed the
meeting.
He remarked that they had assembled for the
purpose oftaking counse! together IN view oil The
approaching election. The present was no ordl-
Massachusetts might be panied at the result OF
some of The recent elections, but they were not
dismayed; they might be cast down, but theY
were not discouraged. lie knew that there was
some DOUBT whether the Wing cause had tn
umphcd--thcrc was some doubt whether the
Wings had elected their candidates TO- President
and Vice President Of the United States. Ihe
doubt must have fallen with chilling influence
upon the friends of The Wing cansein Massachu-
sets, but he hoped and believed that it would not
cause any OF them to fail in their duty at the
coming election. an unicerSal response Of no.!
no!D Whatever might have been the result IN
other States, the true sons Of Massachusetts
would remain Jealous and steadfast in support of
those principles upon which they believed the
preservation and pennanency Of cur free lnstltu-
tons depended He knew not what had been
the issue of the elections IN many Of the other
States but he knew what II ought to be. Even
if il has been adverse TO their cause, the Wings
have much TO congratulate themselves upon
much to be proud of. The canvass, as 1t had
been conducted on their part, had been highly
dignifed, and eminently creditable TO them. The
speeches of their distinguished orators, and the
addresses Of their State Committees, appealed
to the reason, the understanding, and the ludg-
ment of the citizens. Claptrap had been avoid
cd, and all unworthy appeals to the base and VI
olent passions. If, after all, we should fail in
electing our candidate for President, Lei US, at
least, have the consciousness of having well and
faithfully performed our duty. There were other
duties The Governor and Lieutenant Cover
nor, and other State officers, were TO be chosen.
The Wings must see to il, that they should be
such men as will maintain the high and enviable
character Of the Old Bay State.
Mr.. Lawrence said that he would not detan
the meeting any longer. He re- ciced to say, that
there were present among them, one who was a
tried and deeply honorcd veteran, in the cause Of
the Constitution and the Laws; who had spent,
ne had almost said, lifetime IN tho snrvioe OF
his counuy,-and who was, from his great and
powerful services in the cause, eminently THE
Defender of the Constitution. Mr.. Lawrence
AL i
such circumstances, to take up the time OF the
meeting. He returned his heartfelt thanks for
the high honor done to himself, in selecting him
10 preside over the deliberations OF such an assem-
bly,, and most earnestly and forcibly urged upon
them not to give up the good cause.
Hon. JONATHAN CHAPMAN, in brief, but per.
tinent, encouraging, and happy speech, introdu-
ced the following resolutions, which were most
heartily and enthusiastically received by the thou
sands present.
Is FASEuIL HALL, Nov. 8, 1874.
The Wings in The City OF Boston and OF the
County Of Suffolk, having assembled in Faneuil
Hall under a deep sense Of what they owe 10 the
Country and their own State-wi;h the solemn con-
viction that principles do not change either with
temporary success defeat and resolutely deter
mined that, whatever other States may do, Massa-

foremost in the support OF good principles and good
government, would record their feelings and pur-
poses in the following Resolutions
Resotred, That VIC believe the crisis through
which the country is now passing, TO be iraught
with more monlentous consequences 10 all its vital
interests than any which it has witnessed since the

Massachusetts will moi; bur, amidst veal sndwo and

now await decision 10 be, Whether the great cause
of American Lsbor-that pillar of our national pros
perv, and of our existence as true Republics
to receive the protection of just and benign gov

terest; whether America is TO retain the glorious
title of "the land Of the free" which she received
al her birth, or is 10 become the degraded and per-
petuaI home Of black slaves and white; whether
honest, intelligent American men, .er mere political
demagogues, 10 shape her destiny; whether, in
q word, America is 10 be Americans TO resume
her ancient glory when purity presided the ballot
