TO have q demonstration, q procession,
n a speech from Blair. A grand fail

coax the faithful to the Democratic
headquarters, and kept coaxing till it
was certain all were there that would
come. Then q torchlight procession
was started, which numbered rrteen
torches, oil told, twelve of these in the
hands Of little boys; and, headed by
the band and followed by the strag-
Cling few who had come together, pro-
ceeded to the International Hotel to call
out Blair. Arrived there, and q CON-

duced to bis audience, and then we
were astouuded to hear q feeble hprrah

the torches-and that was all there was
Of the Democracy.
How 1T IS TO BE DoNr.-Blair said
in his harangue in this city on Tuesday
night, that the Democratic party would
'restore the Constitution, and re.estab-
lish the principles Of JUSTICE" il the
people would only entrust them with
power. The distinguished revolution
list told US in his letter to ~Broadhead
just how he proposes to do it, viz: by
"electing a Democratic President who

as the sentence was finished some i'm
pertinent Republican across the street,
Ia q loud tone, inquired, "That means
the Blair family, don't itf" Tho dis.
tinguished revolutionist was %uonplussed
at the poser, and remarked that he did

York hearers, after they refused to
cheer the sentence that Lee and John

Generals.
AHEAD OF TlxE.-Blair told his audi.

Grant and Colfax are not quite so impet'
