Has Nothing Been Done 2

The Hon. Henry G. Denning Of Connecticut,
in his speech at the mass meeting in New York
last week, concluded with the following elo-
quent words:
Nothing been done, Why, in three years
and n half we have done more than Julius Ce-
sar with his ten years in Gaul--more than Han
nibal with his seventeen years in ltaly-more
than the conquerer OF British India with his hf-
teen years in that country. l challenge you
10 find in all history single martial enterprise
more conspicuous for the obstacles TO be over
come, more numerous with examples OF endur-
ance and heroism. more magnificent in its re-
suits, and more fatal to the enemy, than that Of
opening the Mississippi. Was nothing done at
Scbastopoll Then nothing done at Vicksburg.
Was nothing done Mt Antwerp Then nothing
was done at Port Hudson. We have won more
substantial triumphs at the expense Of fewer
comparative rcverses, than in the memorable
seven years which filled theworld with the fame
Of Frederick the Great or in the three and half
years Of the campaign of Napoleon the Fhst,
frum the time he descended the Alps like an ay-
alanche ON the plains Of Lombardy until he
turned his white charger in grim dismay from
the crimsoned field of Waterloo.
Nothing has been done Say, D Sherman.
sweeping with thy bosom the mountain fastness
OF Northern Georgia, gathering into thy tolls
all the arteries OF rebel communication, and
holding in thy palm the arsenal Of the Conied-
eracy, has nothing been done Say, ID Grant,
clearing that blind war path in the bloody Will
derness a, the bayonet point advancing thy
lines point to point, from the Rapidan TO the
James, and tightening the death coil around
Richmond (applausel, Is the reproach, moth

An Arr ILLUsrRArioS.-George Sennett, ESQ,
of Boston. who has always voted the Demo-
cratic ticket. receatly addressed Union meet.
ing in Faneuil Hall, where he opened his speech
in the following manner:
One freezing February morning. a negro
hawkcd mutton pies in a baske, round Faneuil
Hall Square. roaring out, ''Hot Mutton Pies -
slot Mutton Pies :" A teamster bought and
tried to bite one-but found it frozen "a solid as
the curb stone. "What do you call them hot
for, you black and blue swindler," yelled the
teams,er 10 the shivcring pie-man. "wy-wy
"A white man guy 'em to me dis mornin '-dey
was hot wen I got 'cm dis mornn'! y "Well,
you old fool, 1t didn't take tea minutes to
freeze them in that old basket-why call them
not now" WY God bless you dats de name
Oh 'em--de name oh 'em IL I didn't holler
de right name nobody wouldn't fetch 'em
You want me to holler fro-e pies | suppose
No 81 You can't fool iuc dat way ~
Thus IL Is with the Democrat party. They
received FROM Jefferson and Jackson, as a free
gin. their principles. fervent from the furnace
az the French Revolution. Those gins they
neanly put up for sale and hawk round in the
deadly market Of slavery, to freeze up in their
shabby old party basket. They roar out,
Democratic Principles I! Democratic Princi-
Piles - for sale being understood. And when
YOU pay the price Of your vote for them. you
hnd sidrsry benumbing your fingers. paralyI-
inc your tongue, contracting your heart and
turning your stomach. Ask the swindlers why
they call such stuff democracy, and they tell
you blandly that Mr.. Jefferson gave them the
original article that they have kept II ever
sincc-that Il Is just a. good "a new, only not
quite ~ warm perhaps-and that you musn' I
quarrel with the pe-man. for what he calls il,
Is its name. II you want II more democratic,
YOU must take II home to your own State aud

The Elections.

From the election returns received up to the
latest moment Of going to press II is emphati-
cally settled that Geo. b. Mcclellan stands no
more Of chance Of being elected President
next month, than we do. So much for the Oc'
tober elections.
PENNSYLVANIA is s,ill in doubt upon the home
vote. Both sides claim il. We have certainly
gained one member of Congress. and perhaps
more, add in all probability have carried the
State by 5000 or 5000 majority. The soldiers
vote will add 5000 to our majority; we consid-
CIR the State sure.
INDIANA, the only doubtful State besides
New Jersey, gives Union majority of from
10000 to 30. 900. and gain of six members of
Congress. The soldiers do not vote in this
