Senator Wilson at Richmond, Ind.

A DISPATCH from Richmond on the Sd
says;
An immense Republican mass meeting
was held here to-day, the number present
being generally estimated at from eight
to ten thousand
Hon. Henry Wilson made the first
speech, He began by referring to the re-
cord of Indiana, and of Wayne County, in
war and in peace; then traced the foot
steps of the Republican party from in
fancy to the present time, showing that
it had, from beginning to end, been true
to the principles of Justice, Liberty, and
Humanity. Those who say that the party
has performed its mission and is dead,
are themselves dead to the great principles
on which it was founded and still rests.
Those who leave the party, claiming they
are as good Republicans as ever, simply
follow in the footsteps of the Blairs, Doc
little, and Andrew Johnson.
He then reviewed the record of Gen.
eral Grant in war and peace. He said as
Chairman of the Military Committee in
the Senate he had special advantages to
study his character. From the begin
ming, of all the Generals in the field, he
showed himself the most efficient and far
sighted. lie favored putting colored
men in the army. In 1868 General Grant
urged the adoption of an amendment to
the Constitution granting suffrage to
negroes. He favored and suggested the
original Reconstruction bill, and did more
than any other man to secure the adop-
tion of the Fifteenth Amendment in 1869
and 1870. He coucurred in the passage
of the Ku-Klux bill only after
it was perfectly apparent that
the negroes in Louisiana and other
Southern States could not protect them
selves. He hestated to assume the power
conferred upon him by that law. His
course toward the white people of the
South had invariably been humane. The
speaker averred that Summers additional
Civil Rights bill was supported by the
Administration members of both Houses
of Congress, but was opposed by Trum-
bull and Schurz and their followers, and
defeated by the Democrats. He said an
effort is now being made TO draw colored
votes away from Grant, but, having been
over the field, he was prepared to say that
80 out of every 100 negroes, from the Po-
tOmac to the Rio Grande, will vote for
him.
He alluded to the plea now being made
for rebels and Democrats by Liberal Re.
publicans that they should be forgiven.
He was ready to forgive when they show
ed real evidence of repentance. He could
not believe that after forty years of sin
ming three million men could, like Paul,
be converted in the twinkling of an eye.
He was not willing to accept mere lip ev-
idence of their conversion. If they have
been honest for forty years in the persis-
tent service of the slave power. they
could not be converted to the Cincinnati
platform in a single day.
In closing, the speaker appealed to the
men of Indiana to stand firmly by the
party which had done more for the human
race than all others, and which could
never die ignobly.

"A young man lately entered the Office
of the Hartford register in bankruptcy
and said, after some hesitation, that he
wanted license because he was going to
get married that evening. The hard
hearted clerk informed him that people
did not go into bankruptcy until after
they were married, and sent him to the

~ Judge Stanley Matthews, of Cincin-
natl, who, it will be remembered, was one Of
the prime movers of the Cincinnati Conven-
tion, who was the temporary Chairman of
that Convention, but who was exceedingly
disgusted with its abortive results, the con-
sequence of its falling into the control of old
gambling political hacks, is now one of
speech at Cincinnati the other evening, in
which he took occasion to review the politi-
cal situation, which he did in most mas
terly manner. Judge Matthews has the rep
utation in Ohio of being one Of the most can
did and sincere of men, who went into the
Cincinnati movement from honest motives.
His present opposition to the nominees of
that Convention, and his support of Grant,
viii not fail Of making an Impression.

Grcnf's Administration.

The history of President Grants
says the Washing
ton Republican has been the history
OF reform itself. Charges of corrup.
ton and fraud fill the air, but there
is really less foundation for them
than there has been at any time du-
ing the last twenty years. Andrew
johnson administration, for III.
stance was the very personlilcation
of fraud and corruption. Notorious
~ bad men were appointed to Office.
Millions of dollars were annually
stolen by unfathiul officials. DIR
ing Mr.. Liucon's administration, as
u consequence OF the war, there can
be no doubt that large sums of mon
ey left the Treasury winch should
have remained in 1t. Take the adj
ministration before that, Mr.. Buch
anan's. The public funds were
openly and unblushingly stolen; the
Indian trust fund bonds were made
away with the arsenals and armo.

cial figures the expenditures OF
President Grants administration
during the fiscal year were $50, lG3,
096.6l less than those of the last

Notwithstanding the fact that ten
millions more dollars have been
paid for pensions. During the last
thirty five months, the public debt
has peen reduced 9JS7 ,2JS, $40 81
and the annual interest decreased by
over seventeen millions and half

more than answer all charges of
fraud that are so freely made by the
opponents Of the President. They
are golden pages, which tel of hon
