The democracy Of the Twenty second ward under
the guidance Of an Independent organization OF
which Mr.. John Ryan is chairman, met in mass
meeting last evening, at the corner Of Eighth

Seymour and Blair. During the afternoon the club

nue. democratic banner appropriately painted and
printed. stand was erected in the street,
which was prettly decorated with the national
emblem, and above it ingeniously hung Chinese
lanterns Enthusiastically lettered, referring
to the many virtues Of the nominees. The surround
ing houses were similarly Illuminated, and with
music and fireworks as an additional attraction and
fully fifteen hundred persons assembled, the scene
calculated to inspire both the originators of the
meeting and the speakers. few minutes after eight
O'Clock Judge Connolly who had been unanimously
chosen as chairman OF the gathering arose to thank
the audience for the honor conferred upon him. and
in speech OF some length reviewed the political sit
uation; defended the action OF Seymour during the
New York riots, and denounced in scathing terms
the carpetbaggers Of the South and their monstrous
dongs.o The Judge was warmly applauded. Messrs
Farchild, Fetner, Higgins, Doherty, Mullins, Crow
ley and Green were elected Vice Presidents and
Messrs. Young. Brymes, Pearson, Doherty and Plum
kett as secretaries OF the meeting.

Mr. Roswell D. Hatch was then introduced, who
with elaboration and documentary evidence as
proof, submitted the action of Seymour during the
war to the gathering, who soon agreed with the
speaker that his course was just, patriotic and un-
hamable. He cOntrasted the cost Of living six years
ago to the poor man with that Of to-day, deducing
that all the greatly Increased prices were caused by
radical rule which, the speaker added, "if it goes
ON much longer 1t will be our ruin" The peroratiOn
OF Mr.. Hatch although not at all political in Its
nature, was effective, and he retired amid cheers.
William Blankman followed making several good,
telling hits on the "carpetbaggers," when his
brother Edmund Blankman. quite eloquently en-
dorsed the candidates. telling the audience In their
election alone was the salvation Of this country.
a. j. Rogers and other local speakers added to this
list, and they succeeded In keeping to the cheering
point The enthusiasm awakened in the early evening
Richard O'GOrman had been invited to address the
meeting but could not attend because of indisposi-
ton. At late hour, with cheer after cheer for Sey-
mour ana Blair, the meeting adjourned.

General Committee adjourned In order to enable the
delegates to perfect their arrangements for the con-
vention. Az half-past eight the. convention
organized by electng Patrick Ennis OF the Fteenth
ward, chairman, and e. G. Herman, secretary The
roll was called, and ex-Regster Hugh Mclaughlin
moved that as there were some questions to be dis
cussed which were not intended for the press, the
reporters be invited TO withdraw. The motion was
carried, and the convention then went into execu.
tive session.
The nine delegates chosen are understood to be
the strongest men that can be put forward by the
party manipulators towards cementng and uniting
the several factions OF the democracy OF Kings
county in the interest Of their candidate for Cover
nor Henry c. Murphy. The course pursued in sit
ting In convention with closed doors, however being
decidedly unusual one, excited considerable CON-
ment and was regarded by many politicians as an
injudcious and unnecessary proceeding, and as In
dcative OF n want OF unanimity Of feeling on the
question among the ward aud county town delega-
tons.
1t transpired however on the adjournment that
the object was to select the delegates by Assembly
districts, Misunderstanding previously existing as
to the arrangement In this latter respect.
The following are the delegates and alternates:-
