OF of Fernando Wood again Teigning IN terror oyer
the people; but like men who love the city with z
deep devotion, they have come TO the STANDARD, ahc

After a few remarks by s. j. Dittenhoefer, esq, in
which he spoke in eloquent terms Of the national
instincts of the German people in favor OF liberty he
promised that soon they would be wholly undeeeNeu'
and all be found with the Republican party.
Charles S. Spencer, esq, was announced, ana wac
received with loud applause. He said, however I'M
portant was the contest in respect OF the city ucse ne
would not admit that in the matter Of the candidates
for public school officers there less importance to
the interests of city. He believed That upon the
success of the school tickets of the Republican or
American parties depends much as upon the success
of the other candidates before he believed that IL
was important for our people to hold on 10 the sheet
| anchor of our freedom-the Holy Bible-and he be-
Geved that il should be read in our public schools
Loud cheersl lie did not desire TO dictate TO any
man as 10 his religious belief but while he heldto that
he denied the right of any native citizen, or imported
citizen 10 dictate to him that his children should not be
permitted 10 be instructed part Of their education,
those great principles which underlay not only our
here welfare hereafter. ICheers.
This question of the Bible in the Common Schools was
now Before the people, and he hoped that every man.
without distinction OF party-whether American, he,
publican, or Democrat-in the Ninth ward would
vote for Mr. Gildersleeve Mr. Spencer then drew the
attention of the meeting 70 article winch he had this
morning found in The NJ Y. Times. He was some
what democratic in his newspapers. He had left a;
his door every morning IHE IRiBgNE, winch was his
political Bible cheers The Herd, which he did not
believe in much, and The Times, which he had con-
siderable respect for in the past He had found in The
Times, under the head of Advertisement,
one OF the most cowardly stabs at the
private character of Mr. Hull, and 30 done as
to defy legal redress. We asked by some OF these
paid men who steel their pens the braves OF Venice
steel their poignards-"Why did Solomon l.. Hull
leave Buffalo some l6 or Is months ago. What Courts
did he practice in there, and what induced him TO go
away from there suddenly and come to this city =
Such were the gross insinuations Why did they not
say it like men if they had anything to say against Mr.
Hull. But the inuend0 had been answered. Mr. HUI
had been wears in this city, and instead of being
known he was well known 10 the people OF this city
was the recognized counsel of some of the most
wealthy and respectable firms in this city, left Buffalo
after having been reputably associated with the bar
there, and had made his way unaided by
| patron or friends, and success had crowned
| the efforts of his hand and arm. Loud cheers.
His friends might well be proud Of him, and if there
was INV other recommendation 10 the speaker it was
that he was presented to the Republicans of this city
by the gallant and un6ncbing opposition of the Ninth
Ward. ICheers. With Mr. Opdyke lcheers he had
become acquainted when he represented this city in
the Legislature last year. He could testify TO Mr..
Opdykes integrity, and to his Repubcanism. We
had been called upon vote for the nominee of Tam
m. ny Hall for Mayor. Why should we do it! The
Republican party had been organized but few years,
and should we yield the young and beautiful bride of
freedom to the arms of the debauChee and bertne If
Tammany Hall lCries of "No, no"l Then let us
rally around our flag We had organization
TO sustain-principles to maintain. Other par
! ties were held together by the cohesive power
| of public plumber, but the Republican party,
thank God was held together by principle, was found
| ed upon the rock of freedom. Cheers. Upon the
success of Opdyke depended the success Of the Pres
dential contest III this city, and If we deserted our or
Qanization we impaired moral force for next year
He hoped therefore, that the party of this ward would
show anew their attachment TO those principles, and
that in 1860 we could 60 into the contest and triumph
antly elect TO the Chief Magstracy of this Confedera
CIV New-YOrk's favore son. William ii. Seward.
Protracted cheers.
The meeting then adjourned.
