OF SCate sovereignty, our reporter as
sures us that there was spontaneous
outbreak of applause in Tammany among
the small and the "big Indians" which
was the special incident of the days pro-
ceedings. From this we infer that Mr.
Chase, as strong and thoroughly ac-
ceptable candidate for the Democracy,
has gained hold among the rank and
file of the party which places him to-day
far ahead of all other competitors, not
excepting Governor Hoffman.
Mayor Hall followed the regular orator
of the day, Mr.. Stockton, in one of his
never-failing, facetious and pungent
speeches. The salient points of his
somewhat discursive and miscellaneous
remarks were these: That "the army of
the Potomac is keeping alive the embers
OF civil war, Ia very suggestive remark j
that Gen. Grant is responsible for the
lack of anything like practical sympathy
from the Government for the Cubans,
and that we (the Democracy must make
an issue Of this in the coming fall cam
paign; that, like Andrew Johnson, Gen.
Grant, before the end of his term, will
be turned out of his party, and on ac-
count OF his divisions of the spoils; that
'four-hfths of what is said about the Ala
bama claims is the sheerest humbug in
the world" that give the Democratic
party chance and there will be practi
cal sympathy, and to some purpose, for
both Cuba and Ireland; that the Demo-
cracy expect something from the Virgil
MIA election. and that in the fall they will
be wide awake in Pennsylvania and New
York.
Thus it will he seen that the powerful
fifteen-inch columbiads-Cubaa and the
Alabama claims-apparently neglected
by the administration, are to be turned
in New York against it this fall, and that
