Special Dispatch TO the Cincinnati Commercial.
| CHILLIcuTHE, Sept. 29.-The Repub-
| lican meeting held here to-day was, as
| political meetings go this campaign, a
! magnificent success. far Outnumberlng
| the meeting of the Democracy held here
yesterday.
General Garfield address ed the audi
ence i'll the afternoon, deliveringa a tell
/ ing and effective speech, using up PEN
| dleton's pet financial schemes, and
| branching off OH the minor issues of the
| campaign in manner that thoroughly
enlisted the sympathies of his audience,
who manifested their approval by loud
and frequent applause.
| In the evening r. NJ. Corwine, of Gin
cinnati, addressed an audience in the
| City Hall, equal in numbers TO the one
that listened to General Garfield in the
afternoon. He handled his subject in 4
mastery manner, presenting the argu-
ments of the campaign in calm, dis
FASHIONED manner, that told well with
his hearers. He too was often and hear
tily cheered.
At the close of his address, Mr.. s. l..
Wallace was called for, and responded
in a short speech, of some twenty min
utes duration, treating mainly on the
man of straw set up by the Democracy
in the shape of Chinese emigration.
The feeling among our Republicans
| here is that these speeches have effected
much good, and have entirely counter
acted and done away with any impress
sions that may have been made by the
violent and denunciatory harrangues of
Governor Haight and Attorney General
Hamilton, of California, yesterday. Old
Ross, and especially the ancient metro
polls, will give good account of her
self at the October election, in the way
of a largely increased Republican vote.
