AT Carusi's Saloon, where n meeting was
held under the auspices of the jackson Dsm-
ocrauc Association last evening, there was a
large attendance Of the faithful, the hall being
crowded TO overlooking. The President, Il. L.
Swart, occupied the chair, and duriag the
-ven,ng read dispatches as received, which
were Afterwards sent TO various places. Capt
SLillsn was chairman of the committee TO pro-
cure news, having corps OF about twenty
youths engaged in running dispatches.
Addresses We're mace by DIR. HILL of Alex
andria, and Dr. Allen and DIR. Clay ton, of this
city. The latter said that he would still con-
tnue Democrat even If Grant is elected. The
Democrats to-day have cast at least two mil
lion votes for constitutional liberty. He
thought that the Democratic party would have
possession OF the Government before four
years are over. This was not the first time that
a Democrat had been elected by the opposite
party. In 1870 Tyler. a Democrat. was placed
on the Wing ticket 10 carry Virginia, and in
1ci johnson WAS placed on the Republican
ticket 10 carry the War Democrats, ard in each
case they dld not forget tney were Democrats
Grant would be likely to do the same, for he
was Democrat They placed him on their
ticket because they thought the Democrats
wouid take him and thereby beat them Grant,
during the whole campaign, had not uttered
political sentiment, and il was the duty of
every Democrat TO prepare to give him re-
specIful support. He did not f.el the least dis.
heaItened, and believed that all things would
come ont right.
Col. Burroughs, of Indiana. followed in ar
address of some length, speaking quite encour-
agely aid advising those present not to be dis
heartened. He did not believe with DR. Clay
ton that Grant would prove Democrat but
rather Crser. and If elected the people would
regret 1t.
Mr. ]. F. Norris was next introduced and
spoke of General Grant rs being in bad COM
pany In the Radical party. He was convinced
that Seymour was elected by the popular VOTE
for the white men voted for him, while the pill
felers and plunderers of the Government
voted for Grant. He eulogzed Seymour as
one OF the rurest and best men of the age
General kavanagh was introduced, and said
1t would be no use to deny il, no use to shope
against hope" but they bad met the enemy and
Were theirs. "A Noice.-Not yeti NoR.pub-
lcan would, however, tell him that Grant aud
Colfax were elected honestly; they are no more
elected Than DIR. Allen and MIR. Davis. The
southern States were not allowed to vote, aud
IN Philadelphia, New York, and Boston. cti-
Zens had been prescribed. The sun of Auster-
litz had risen on the country, and he honestly
believed that the last President ever TO be cho-
sen mad been elected, but he trusted In God
that he was mistaken. If Grant will rise above
party, then the United States will continue: but
unless he dlscards the Repu blicans then he is
the last President, and he believed that the day
Is not FAR distant when with Cromwell the
people Will rise in their ma iesty and take the
rule OF the country in their own hands. Tne
thanks OF the Democracy should be given to the
Republicans of Buffers district for eIecting
him 10 Congress, for if he did not in the next
Congress burst up the Republican party he
was mistaken. He extolled Seymour in warm
terms, ana spoke of Blair a pure. bra We, out
spoken man, W no may yet be their leader and
he believed that Seymour and Blair had been
honestly elected
Mr.. McNerhany followed Gen. Kayanaugb,
saying that he believed the Republican party
had caught tartar, but they should wait the
coming events. He predicted that if defeated
ne party was not dead. and before another
'ieclon would be prepared to win.
Mr.. r. Schmidt said he had heard the fune-
raj sermon and felt bad, but he did not believe
the dispatches, which were from Radical
sources He secuted the idea OF this being a
funeral
Mr. Davis followed, saying that he rather
ulsIlked beng NJ the tail end OF the funeral
but be was not discouraged. and was not sure
but that Grant would disappoint the Radical
carpet baggers and scallawags who elected
hlla, for II was well known that he wa
a Democrat and had so stated. IA voice.-I'lI
be id II he isl Even if he should be true 10
Inc Republicans the Democrats shoald not
give up; should not let this election be the
fnnt raj, for by the time lS72 rolls around they
VIII BE- ready TO win avict1rv
The meeting adjourned with the understand
ing that the last meeting of the campaign would
De held tomorrow night.
