Previous to the ..Long Talk" Mr.. Jerome Buck read
the Declaration Of Independence, aud was followed
by Arthur MatthisOn, who sang ''The Flag OF Wei
come'' (already published In the HERALD and at ITS
close John Savage read an original poem which,
although rather lengthy, was very flne and very
well received.
THE SHORT TALKS
were begun by Mr.. Stockton Potter, or Westchester
county, who reviewed III short way the history or
state rights and what it amounted 10 nowadays.
He found grea; fault with the way the States were
in the United States Senate. AS at
present constituted there were thirty members OF
the concern who represented a less number Of peo
pie than the two senators from New York. Tn is
kind Of thing, he considered. ought TO be righted.
The amendments to the constitution by which
slavery was abolished and the right OF suffrage ex-
tended to the cOlOred people were not In themselves
dangerous to the welfare of the country but the aim
OF tue general government to centralize IN itself
end If permitted longer, in the utter loss
or the peoples liberties. The dead past
should bury its dead, and the people should now
look forward TO the future, and each man decide
himself what kind OF government he prelers-0ne
which Will protect him in his rights, or one which,
to make itself stronger for the sake OF itself,
trampes down the rights Of every man who dares
to interfere with Its designs.
Judge FRIEDMAN followed in rather long talk
for ''Short Talk" on the great things the demo-
cratic party had done for the country and what 1t
would yet do and closed by euioglzing the country
and It's liberal institutions, which were open to the
down-rOdden OF all nations.
Mr.. HILL then sang the "Star Spangled Banner"
in mis- mastery style, the audience Joining ia the
chorus, after which everybody adjourned 10 the
subterranean region beneath the Wigwam, where
q collation. and lashins Of champagne and claret
punch were found awaiting patriotic apperiCes.
