banners. There were six of these banners, and
one Of them, made for the occasion at the order OF

Erastus Brooks, chairman Of tho Committee Of
Democratic Wing Young Men, being called upon,
welcomed to Broadway House. on behalf of the two
Wing General Committees, the chairmen and
members of the two opposite committees. T.
He said, in substance, that this was the third &C.
casion, within brief period of time, when the
Wing party had been called upon to invite their
fellow citizens to participate with them In rem
doring honors to the illustrious dead. We had
mourned together the death of General Taylor
who was struck down from his high Office in the
very midst Of his official duties President Of the
United States Together we have mourned for the
loss of tho ever beloved and lamented Henry Clay;
and now another Of the great and gifted men Of the
land-tbe last of u brilliant trio-had departed,
not merely from the forum, the Senate House, and
the Cabinet but his sun had set from the face of the
EARTH and could rise no more this side Of the grave
IL was fitting that all parties should pay homage TO
the memory of the iliustrious dead. We had been
at TamppAny Hall to- day, but yesterday even

and obey, had been stripped Of political power in
the city, State, and nation. They were here to-
night before their opponents ready to proclaim
their willing submission 70, and acqoiescence in,
the will of the majority. The will Of the people,
declared at the ballot box, was the supreme law Of
the land and it was the glory of our country, and
it's peculiar honor above all other countries on the
face Of the earth. that mino'ties were ever ready
to submit to the voice of constitutional majorites
The man whose funeral rites We have just been
participating in taught us-and biessed be his
memory for the instruction-that we all lived un.

destiny. The constant theme Of his discourse,
and the uniform action Of his life, were for the
union Of the States-''one and inseparable, now
and forever" -.

coming out of q political contest much more fierce
than that through which We have recently passed,
and addressing his countrymen from the Capitol
of the United States, declared that "every differ
enco OF opinion was not difference of principle"
and that :" we were all Republicans and all Fede
raiists," and for the good reason, he added, that
where there was error Of opinion it could be tole-
rated where reason was left to combat it.
Gentlemen, at later period in the history Of
this country, come twenty years ago. when the old
war horse of the Democr ratio party was in the Exc
cutve chair, when the cries Of secession, disunion
and nuii6ca ton were all heard as in one sad cho-
rus from one section OF the Union, Andrew Jack
and Daniel Webster stood shoulder to shoulder,
he one defending the Union President of tho
Republic, clothed with authority over the army
and navy, and the other Senator in Congress,
clothed with a stupendous intellect, advocated,
with fire in his eye, and true patriotic fervor in
his heart, Mt and the same time, the passage of
the Force bill, and the unity and integrity 81 the

the two Democratic Committees. He returned
thanks for the courtesies of this day, and for pre-
vious attentions which had been received from the
Wing Committees. Though soon to be in the
jority, the Democratic party, he hoped and be.
lieved, would not forget what belonged to the
country and the whole country. Differences of
opinion were not only matter Of right, but were
the same republic. Daniel Webster, though a
party man and party leader, had showed hmeelf
