was wrested from him by the Sergeant, and had
up to that Iime behaved very quietly. There
is no occasion for any widespread excitement;
nor is there any fear whatever that any Union
man will be molested. The officer who had o
writ for Prosser called out force to preserve
the peace, and that was all the armed force that
has been called out, and that was 10 protect

We pledge ourselves to make every exertlon TO
prevent disturbances of public meetings or other

any one, we are assured that the power of the
county, as on the occasion alluded to, shall be
invoked, and that the peace OF the community
shall be preserved. ~ a.si-

At the 1aat meeting Of the Common Council. Al.
tc1man t. c. Holden offered ecres Of patrIot,c
resolutions which wehayc already printed in these
.elIn.Es, calling for mAss mecttu. Of loyal cIti.
:ens, irrespective Of party, to give expression to
PATRIOTIC sentiments In support Of our soldicrs
a1sd our Government, and in dcnnnc11tion Of trca-
tca IEe resolutions covered these points, aud
10 others. There was nothing III them objection
ahlc to loyal man.
These resolutions have been vetoed by Msyoc
Sherman!
The name Of Mayor Sherman is signed to tho
document, although lie ne1er penued a line OF 1t.
It cmanatcd from tho 1nvinciblc Club, and Is the
production Of many hands. Prominent among
them are Utah Drummona, Com1sEy OF tho
''Tcnth,'' Small Mech and Little Fuller. Dr..
Hahn was the midwife at the delivery, and Hayes,
the Mayors conscience.keepcE, approved. It mat
tiers little, however, who wrote IT. Mayor Shcr-
mans name is signed TO it, and he alone et,nds
responsible for it and the deep disgrace he has
perpctratcd upon the loyal city Of Chicago
The prominent rcaeon which appears IN this doc
unent for vctoing the resolutions Is the damaging
effect they will have upon tho Democratic PARTY by
causfng the formation Of Union party. 1t isa
fatal acknowledgment thfs-that patriotic action,
subscription to loyalty, will damage the Demo
cratic party, and Mayor Sherman has the doubtful
honor Of signing the first Tcto mesaage-if tue
document in question may aspire to that distiuc
tion-which has made the concession that loyalty
will ipju1e the party.
The above il the pretended reason for the veto
1t Is not the real one. 1t distinctly made thu
condition OF Shcrman's denomination TINT h,
should sign this message prepared for him by tht
leaders Of tue Copperhead party. Hc dare not a.
eett that he wrote 1t himself, he cannot deny ths
he signed It upon this condition. It WAS not
bitter dosc for him to swallow. He todk the PHI
willingly and glsd1y. From the day the frat gur
WEE nzed At Sumter to.the present, he has invasi
ably rcfuscd to preside at patriotic meetings. The
resolutions in question would have required him
to preside at the Union meeting on the 9th. He
has escaped 1t by his veto, and thus the Pill wac
| rendered still easier Of digestion.
The poor tool Of the Copperheads has vetoed d
patriotic meeting. The people will rise In their
might and majesty and crush hin to powder. Stop

be held, and Bryan Hall will not contain the multi
tudcs who will come up, aud by their presence and
loyal sentiments rebuke this timc-sr1ving, willing
pnppct who dares to oppose his official signature
to the progress OF freedom. He has laid down his
platform. Now let the loyal people Of Chicago rnl
