Mr.. VALLANDIaHAM was next called, and
responded in mastery speech Of half an
hour, which was repeatedly interrupted by
cheers. ".
He spoke in defense Of the Democratic
party and of State Rights and Peace, and
in support Of the Chicago platform. The
Democratic party was q State Rights
/ party--a Constitutional party--a Union
party--and just now Peace party. 1t
was his party and its candidates were his
candidates. 1t bore the Ark Of the Cove
nant it carried the fortunes of the Re
public, and in its success lay the only
hope of the Republic. The Chicago plat
form enunciated its policy and principles
by authority, and was binding upon every
Democrat, and by them the Democratic
Administration must and should be gov
erned. 1t was the only authorized exposi-
ton Of the Democratic creed and be repu-
dated all others. The unity and harmony
of the party were essential to success, and
without success in November the country
was lost In conclusion be declared his
purpose to vote for the nominees Of the
Chicago Convention as the only hope o
securing the defeat Of Lincoln and th'
rescue Of the Republic.

Mr. PendletOn Seramaded.

We had last night another of those
magnificent demonstrations, now so COM
mon everywhere, showing conclusively
with what force the tide of public senti-
ment is moving against Abraham Lincoln,
and in favor of the Democracy. Mr.. PRN-
DLEToN came to the city yesterday evening"
after the EMPIRE had gone to press, and
consequently too late to make any notice
Of his arrival. Nevertheless, the news
spread rapidly, band was engaged, and
q seranade appointed at eight o'clock. As
Mr.. PExDLRToN was the guest Of Mr.. VAL
LANuIoHAM, a crowd soon began to Assem-.
bic in front of Mr.. V.'s residence, which
was augmented to thousands by the ar.
rival of an immense procession, headed by
the band. We hazard nothing when w
say, that the numbers in attendance eI
ceeded as ten to one, the Republican meet
ing of the night before, which had beer
advertised by posters all over the country
for week preceding.
Mr.. PENDLEToN being loudly called
came forward and spoke as follows

POLITICAL Itenns.

Mr.. E. G. Assay, former supporter
of Lincoln. made speech few nights
ago in Chicago, in the course of which
he said, if you insist upon this union
without slavery if you are willing to
pledge your sons and your fathers to this
battle for the purpose OF Abolishing negro
slavery, hell will burn out before you will
gain the end.

candidate for Governor of Illinois, is max

by is a beast Now is time to call things
by their right names.
Remember tho position Of Lincoln, as
announced in his letter to Messrs. Clay
and Holcombe. 1t is this /: Though the
Confederacy should dissolve tomorrow /;
though all resistance to the Federal Gov
ernment should cease though every State
should beg for re-Admission into the Union
