The Speech of ABRAHAM LINCOLN at the Cooper
Institute last evening was one of the happlest ana
most convincing political arguments ever made IN
this City, and was addressed to crowded ana
most approaching audience. Since the days OF
Clay and Webster, no man has spoken to larger
assembago of the intellect and mental culture Of
orr CITY. Mr.. Lincoln is one Of Natures orators,
using his rare powers solely and effectively to elucs
date and to convince, though their inevitable effect
is TO delight and electIify we'll We present
herewith very full and accurate report OF tins
Speech; yet the tones, the gestures, the kindllng
eye and the mirth provoking lock- defy the report
ers skill The vast assemblage frequently rang
with cheers and shouts of applause, which were
prolonged and intensified at the close. No man
ever before made such an impression on his first
appeal to a New-York audience.
Mr Lincoln speaks for the Republican cause to-
night at Providence r. l., and it is hoped that he
will find time to speak once or more in Connecticut
before be sets his face homeward
We shall soon issue his Speech of last night In
pamphlet form for cheap circulation.

In reply to the resolution OF Mr. Supervisor
Blunt, which was laid over last week, Mr.. District
Attorney Waterbury yesterday addressed a long
communication to the Board of Supervisors, in
which he Processes sOrrowful readiness to comply,
if the Board so will it, by giving list of all untried
indictments in his office, provided the Board fur
nsh him with clerk for that seryicc-whch was
very obEeng in him, to be sure, seeing that they
are matters of public record which he ia bound to
furnish when requested 70 dose. Hcasserts thatthe
chief reason for not bringing indictments to trial Is,
thai they were iur FIRST ollenses, and there were
hopes of ami ndln Mt and reform for the criminals.
Other reasons are named, but we do not see "po-
lticale1pediency" included among them. He depre-
Gates the uncovering of the secrets of his office as
calculated to produce a train of aching hearts
80 throughout The city," and utterly refuses to
make public statement Of the reasons why cases
have not been tried. He says: " In majority OF
the cases they would be only presumptive, and III
" some instances il would defeat the ends OF JUS
" tice to say why trial is not had. For various
reasons, therefore, such return cannot be made
"But, if any member your Board wishes to know
"Why any one or more of the indictments are not
"tried, if he will call at this Office it will give me
g great pleasure to satisfy him fully" In respect
TO old indictments he does not propose to dag
out work from the mounds of the past under any
" circumstances, unless the parties accused de.
mand trial Mr.. Waterbury lie manifestly UNI
willing to LET any light into his "prison-house"
that he can possibly keep out.
