pie who passed into the large space in a
perfect food. and swarmed around the
several stands where speaking was, to be
heard. The Fair Ground presented q
most lively and animated scene through
the whole afternoon, being one dense mass
of human beings. some of whom were
fixed bodies, crytalised around the stands,
while others foated from stand to stand to
take their choice Of cloquence. ''''A

The speaking began soon after one O.
clock. From one stand. Judge o. P.
Morton. candidate for Lieutenant Cover
nor. made a strong and effective speech.
From sysecond, the crowd were ably enter
tained by Hon. Ben. Stanton, of Ohio,
aud Hon, Caleb B. Smith, Of 1ndianapo-
oils. Both Of these gentlemen made tell
ing speeches. which were immensely ap-
plaudesi. From another stand. Hon. Tom
Corwin made one Of his inimitable and
unreportabie harrangues which the great
crowd enjoyed hugely. s' pa
j. He was followed BY John @. Underwood
Of Virginia. who in his turn gave way to
Hon. John A. Matson. of Greencastle.
From the fourth stand, Hon. Frank P.
Blair made fine speech Of an hour in
length. directed mainly to showing the
immense superiority of free labor over
slave. .f..aua.sse - ...'..oa -
Mr.. Blair was followed by Henry S.
Lane, Republican candidate for Governor.
who made one Of the very best. and most
entertaining speeches We ever heard. The
late hour and haste in which we write. pre-
vents any sketch of the various speeches.
Indeed such'is the immensity of the i'm
preston produced by the irrepressible out
pouring of the human race, that the stump
speaking becomes altogether secondary
consideration.
For one. l certainly never saw anything
like SO many people at once. and this is
the verdict of all hear. The coneourse
is much greater than that at Springfield,
on the 9Th. and if the Douglas party pro-
pose to beat it next month. when they ex-
pect the great Sqnatter Chief here to look
after his mamma, they will have to get mp
very early in morning for series of weeks
to make a beat OF it.

New York..Thc Prospect.
From the N. Y. Tribuuc, 29th.

Dragging and lying seem to be the cheif
weapons of attack and defense employed by
the Douglasites. They are necessarily
boasting of large accessons of strength
from improbable quarters They are per-
sistsntly asserting that Breckenridge is
about to withdraw from the canvass and
leave the field to them. In no part of tho
country do they WELD these weapons with
more andacity and vigor than in the State
of New York. Having virtually aban-
doned the contest in Pennsylvania and
New Jersey. because the Breckenridge wing
of the party is in the ascendant there, they
are just now making desperate assault
upon the ranks of Lincoln in this State.
They would fain stimulate the ignorant
and credulous in their piebald band with
the hope of securing our thirty Electo-
raj votes. and thus defeat Lincoln and car
ry Douglas into the House of Representa-
tives to the exclusion of Breckinridge.-
Let US look at the figures and sec If there
is the faintest prospect Of their success
At the State elections of 1858 and SO,
the Democratic party of New York was as
united and harmonious as it has been any
contests were the Republicans remarkably
active. and the result showed that large
vote, mainly from their side. remained at
home. In each of these years the average
Republican majority was just about 20, ,000

we are adopting is prejudicial to our side,

Such was the popular response to the

On Tuesday evening. the day before the

pie gathered together as reached the city
during the whole Douglas Ratification

the streets were early thronged with a
motley crowd, and the country wagons

the country in wagons, on horseback. and
by other private conveyances.
THE SIZE OF THE CROWD.
AS for the whole number in the city, it
is. of course, utterly impossible to give
more than an approximate estimate
From the best indications given by the
railroad statistics, the numbers on the Fair
Ground, and the crowds left in the streets.
we could not come to any less conclusion
than that there were 10000 men from a.
broad in indianapolis to-day. Good
Judges who are not usually deemed extrava-
CANT, say there was not man under 40.
900, while the vast majority would deem
any estimate below $4,000 or $1,000
grossly unfair. But, as our readers know
we are against the besetting tendency Of
the press to exaggerate popular gatherings,
and we are satisfied there were at least forty
thousand people who participated in the
celebration. a
THE PROCESSION. isa
a small portion only of the arrivals
Joined in the procession, which formed at
IL o. clock and moved through the princi-
pal streets to the fair gound. 1t was chief
y composed of Wide Awakes, in uniform
and on foot. The display was By no
means eqnal to that at Springfield. Illi-
nois, on the 9Th inst, There was defci-
cncy Of banners and notices, and an al
most total lack of order and organization.
In numbers, too, the procession was q
failure. which must be attributed to the
heat of midday and the unwillingness of
the majority to subject themselves to the
fatigue of such march. The number in
the procession was, by actual connt. s.
307. 1t occupied few minutes less than
an hour in passing given point. The
feature Of it was tremendous team of
oxen-forty-four yoke. or cighty-eight
oxen-harnessed to one huge team, which
was filled with mechanics, engaged in
many of the occupations Of industry
Three splendid cars. decorated with ever
green. and adorned with bovies Of little
girls in white, were another attractive fea-
ture. The procession, IS it passed rapidly
through Washington street. whose spacious
sidewalks were crowded with the multi
