At the Cooper Institute, was, by far
the largest mass meeting in num-

composing it, shan has been rarely

seat in that vast Hall was occu--
pied, and all the standing room,
ana thousands rem aimed out. A
letter was received from Vice
President Colfax, in which he thus
speaks of tie administration Of
President Grant:

cised, but now universally beloved
Abraham Lincoln, will be found

Senator Conkiin. also addressed
letter to the meeting, closing
thus:

versary Of Lincoln's proclamation

Lincoln's devotion to duty, will
