Especial Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune.l
INDIANAPOLIS. May 81. 1868.
Buzzard Mcrrick's speech has been handed
that gentleman for revision. It was too full Of
malignant treason to 90 to the world as de-
livcred.
Among the numerous arrests yesterday was
one John Coulhons Of Dayton. BE is charg-
cd with having set fire to the Journal Office
Of that city, on the night after Vallandigham's
arrest.
CAPTAIN John Cassidy, Of the eth Indiana,
has died Of rounds received ut Chancellors-
vile.
The managers Of the Copperhead demon
etration yesterday, do not appear to be half
as julilant over its results as the Union men,
although the sentiment Of its composers cst1-
mate the crowd at 5000, there were not to
exceed Il, 600, the extra trains carrying less
than COCO persons. Yet it contained as much
mean treason as ever went unpunished.
There was no enthusiasm, and its object, If it
had my, is regarded as a failure. At least
! one third of those in attendance were loyal
and unconditional Union men. Whcn the
question was put on the adoption Of the res
olutions, a loud and astoundingly strong neg
atiye vote was heard, followed Immediately
BY three cheers for Lincoln and the co on.crip-
tion act, and Ill Of them given with will
! and strength that showed how big q kernel
| Of loyalty that buttcrnut hull contained
The meeting adjourned in disgust, and the
Union men at once took possession of the
stand, and several speeches we're made, the
most strong of which, was m account Of the
treatment Of our prisoners by the rebels, By
Il sergeant in the s5ih regiment, whose name
we could not learn. Thus the meeting ended.
Its resolutions like its body were an unflnish'
ed production. We are informed that in the
Committee no less than three sets we're in
t1oduced-onc rabilly reasonable. one mod
crate, and the other tolcrably loyal-the first
set was rejected at once; the other two wert
finally patched into 4 report, which is more
remarkable for what it don't say than what il
does. 1t denounccs arbitrary arrests militas,
usurpations, and dcnounccs the arrest Of Val
landigham, but 1t don't denounce the rebels
it don't denouncc The war, it don't deuounct
opposition to the conscription act, and i
don't denonnce the reputation Of the inter
/
that the interest shall be hard. It is quee
medley, There was disloyal feeling il
it and enough Of it, but 1t didn't ge
to ray What it wanted 10, or do what it cam
for. As thc.cxcursion trains we're leaving In til
