Fremont and Dayton" at Cincinnati.
The Ratification of Monday night at CinciD-
natl, was grand affair. Five or Sixthousand
people vera assembled, and telling speeches
we're made by Mansfield, .Reemelin, Headlsy,
Smith, Hassaurek, and others. The Germans
of Cincinnati, go almost IN an entire body for
Fremont. Between one and two thousand Of
them marched 10 this meeting in procession,
with music. transparencies, dc. Mr.. Mans

this country as Couservatives-a class that was
now strongly appealed to support James Buch-
anan; but he saw before him but two courses,
and of these TWO it was not Difficult. for him to
choose which to follow-one Buchanan and
Slavery--the other was Freedom and Fremont

The conservatives were also appealed tokeep
step to the music of the Union, bat he found it
just as easy to keep step when the band played
the march of freedom as when it played that
other tune, the rOgues march of the Nebraska
act. (Great cheering.
Said Reemelin, 10 his admirable speech:
While Buchanan has only travelled from
Lancaster to Philadelphia, from Philadelphia
to Washington, and from there back to Phila-
delphia, on his way back to Lancaster, (laugh-
ter) while he has never set his foot on this side
the Alleghanies, look at the contrast presented
by Fremont! Emancipating himself early from
the secionasm of bis South Carolina home be
becomes genuine son Of the Republic, devo-
ting himself to the most dangerous, and yet
the most useful service-an Officer Of the Top
ograPhical Engineer in the unexplored heart
of the Continent, and on the Pacific, before we
had acquired California. Familiar with all
of danger, he is calm and resolute in every cr-
sis; he has won all his laurels in new and Ieqai-
mate fields; his body is only the perfected tenn
pie of strength that his great soul inhabits-a
body not effeminated by life of inglOrious
ease bought by convenient changes of senti-
ment.
Yes, fellow citizens, Fremont commands ad-
mira,ion for his manhood and therein towers a.
bove all his competitors in this contest, and
still is more than their peer in discriminating
judgment of men and principles. He knsws
how to explore the resources of a continent, he
knows how ever to pat the right man in the right
place, he knows how to subsist on roots and
horsefesb, he knows the duty of husband,
loud cheers and sfather universal applause
echoed By she ladies from the windowsl and
above all, fellow citizens, FREMONT knows how
to make free States. Prolonged applause.
Mr. R. also made this capital illustration -
AS the psrjured House of HapsFurgh bears
aloft the stolen crown, jewels and royal insignia
of Hungary, so does this party of placemen
and place-seekers oppress the nation ear with
its single bray, This is the Democratic party
this is the old Democratic party" (Appause)
And By virtue of the democratic name, they
claim to rule and direct the destiniss Of this
people as an hereditary right.
