Remarks of Mr.. Otis.

Mr.. Otis then came forward and said they had
again met to give their further approval and ap-
probation of the Republican party, which they
hold to be the only true party of the nation
Its principles and platform were broad enough
for all to stand on, white and black, North and
South, native and foreign born. 1t had carried
the country through its darkest hours of peril
and the present administration was among the
best since the foundation of the country. All
that the traducers of the administration have
been able to prove or assert up to the present
time went for naught, and on its continued sue
cess the life-blood of the nation depended.
The Chairman then introduced, as one of the
honored representatives of the whole people,
the Hon. Senator John Sherman, of Ohio.
On coming forward, Senator Sherman was
greeted with deafening applause. His speech,
delivered in plain, off-hand style, was full OF
telling and forcible facts and throughout was
listened to with marked attention. He spoke as
follows;

GATHERING.
Immense Conc0urse of People at
Union Hall.
Telling Speeches Of Senator John
Sherman and Colonel John

Union Hall, with its crowded galleries and the
main hall well filed, was pleasing sight to
witness The attraction for the immense gath
ering was the announcement that two leading
minds of the country would address the citi-
zens of this city on the political topics of the
day now engaging the attention of the whole
American people.
The meeting was called to order by Hon.
Walter Van Dyke, of the Republican State Cen
trail Committee, who nominated James Otis,
Esq, as Chairman of the meeting, and who was
elected by acclamation.
Mr. Otis came forward and returned thanks
for the honor conferred
Mr. NJ. D. Boruck then read the following
list of Vice-P Presidents:

Speech of Col. J. w. Forney.

When the Confederate Army surrendered at
Appomattox Court House, ON the 9th OF April,
1865, the curtain fell upon the last act OF the
Democratic party. All subsequent efforts to
prolong its existence have been failures and
SO when its representatives met at Baltimore,
on the 9Th OF July, 1872, and formally accepted
the doctrines of the Republican party, and sub
stantially pledged themselves to ABIDE by the
DEGREES OF the war and the great acts of recon
structlon, including the three Amendments of
the National Constitution, they simply confessed
that their mission was ended. in accepting
Mr.. Greeley their candidate, they clincheo
the concession and emphasized the sacrifice.
Few such events have ever happened in our
history; and we need not be surprised at the
consequences. The old Wing party ceased i'll
the Same way, though not gracefully. Ii
sighed itself out IN the embrace of the know
Nothlngs, IN 1854, and in 1856 passed over into
the new Republican party, where it had a
lite. And now that both the old organizations
have been absorbed by the Republicans, there
is laid upon all of us the solemn duty of sup
porting Grant and Wilson for President aud
vice-President, not only because they are the
Republican candidates, but because they most
truly represent the practical ideas and moral
conquests OF the last twelve years. LApplause.

TORIES.
late Democratic party, and in a certain sense
with praise. l never doubted that with two
Republican candidates for President, a very
large per centage would vote Tor Grant, and /
ann not surprised that SO many of the best men
of that persuasion have SO chosen. They had
In fact no alternative. Mr.. Greeley had been
the abiest and most persevering of their antag-
onists. Ali his great gifts had been trained to
the overthrow OF their principles, and when he
received the seal of their leaders, the feature
most prominent In his record was his persistent
Endorsement of the character, the capacity and
the deservings of General Grant. If these
leaders were sincere IN their submission to the
Republican creed, why should not the Demo-
cratic masses take the man who represents the
party that has been most faithful to this creed
If these leaders are not sincere, and only ex-
pect to use Mr.. Greeley to overthrow what has
been 80 wisely established, and has been crowned
by such splendid harvest, that would be only

A FINANCIAL REVOLUTION IF GREE
LEY Is ELECTED,

Will he post the notice on the Sub Treasury at
New York 1.-THE way to resumption is to re-
sumo, . and thus clasp in a wise fixed as fate
every man who is in debt? But it is said that
the President cannot do this without the con-
sent Of Congress. This is great mistake The
President cannot cancel the greenbacks, and
thus contract the currency, without q law of
Congress, but his Agent-the Secretary OF the
Treasury-may receive and hold in the Treas
ury any amount of greenbacks he desires. and
thus control the currency as effectively Is by
canceling the greenbacks. He has as cc1n-
pletely the power over the revenue in the
Treasury, as bank has over its loans and dis
counts. The memorable history of the removal
of the deposits from the bank of the United
States, under General jackson, illustrates the
power Of the President over financial results

Fellow-citizens, let US if possible divest our
selves of all partisan feelings. Let us look at
this canvass which marks for four years the
selection of our Chief Magistrate. Does any
man doubt but that our country has been dur
ing this administration unusually prosperous !?
How far has the management OF our public Of
fees contributed to our prosperity? First let
US look at our finances. On the LIST of March,
1869, our liquidated debt was 50, 525, ,463, ,260;
our annual interest was $126, 389 $50; our cur
rency was worth 65 cents in gold; the rate of
interest was as high as $40; our per cent.
gold bonds were worth eighty per cent in gold;
our system of internal taxes extended to vast
multitude of articles which enter into common
consumption of life. The collection of these
taxes was fraudulently evaded, SO that in one
year the tax on whisky, at 50 gallon, yielded
only SIG, 900 goo; our public credit was greatly
injured by doubts as to the mode of paying the
bonds; the people were restive under the heavy
taxes; the slow diminution of the public debt;
the depreciation of our currency and credit; and
an ominous fear pervaded the public mind at
home and abroad, that the Americans would
under their burdens be tempted to commit the
greatest crime against civilization, namely: Re-
pudiation. Three years have passed, and how
is it now? What marvellous change has taken
placel Our iquidated debt is now ~, 186 .05S, :
$50. We have paid of S337, 404, ,603, besides q
mass of floating debt as it became iquidated
through the Courts. Our annual interest
charge is decreased $22, SIC, 457, being now
but little over $100, ,O0O, 600 per annum. Our
bonds are worth par in gold, and are being
renewed with new bonds bearing per cent.
interest or less. Our currency is worth 50, or

the Constitution, which secures to all men the
right to vote, without respect to condition, race,
or color, had not been adopted. 1t was the
crowning work of the Republican party, with
out which all would have been an unfinished
edifice. General Grant gave to it his earnest and
and effective support. This amendment was
fiercely resisted by the Democratic party,
though they swallow it in the Cincinnati plat
form. The final ratification of it by the requi-
site number of States practically completed
Reconstruction, except in one or two States,
which from local divisions gave great embarrass-
ment. Look over this work of Reconstruction,
the most difficult task that ever fell upon any
party. We had the necessity of composing a
hostile population, and yet Of restoring them to
political power We had to secure the freedmen
in their political and civil rights, and yet they
were ignorant and credulous, not from our fault
but from the degradation of slavery. These
States are now all restored to their equal polit-
ical power, every man can vote and yet the freed
men have been protected, and, so help us God
and the American people, will be in the fnture
GDeafening applause. which was continued for
some time. 1t is said that corruption has
crept into the management of the State Govern
ments. No wonder if it be true The state
ment as to the condition of the Southern
States is greatly exaggerated, but admit that
in Louisiana, Georgia, and Alabama, there has
been great improvidence wastefulness and per-
haps peculation. Bad men got into office. The
desire for railroads was seized upon as pre-
text for gross misuse Of the bonds of these
States. Well, who did it Governor Warmoth
of Louisiana is the right bower of the Greeley
party in that State, Laughter, the Democratic
Governor of Alabama, whose name / forget

NORTH CAROLINA.

The f1A news of the first closely con-
 tested slection of the campaign of 1872 in-
 dicated an overwhelming Conservative tlumph and seemed to pledge the South ern States e' naasse to Greeley. Day by day, however, the Conservative aspect of the returns underwent a change. The high wrought expectations of an overturn like those of A49 and AS disappeared, leav- ing the ''Liberal'' party in a minority of about 1900 in State they had carried by 5000 at the last State election. The pres ent Democratic legislature had so ''gerry- manderedo the State as to secure major ity of the representatives to Congress and majorities in both Houses of the incoming legislature. in spite of the popular major ity against them; and in that fact they now find their only consolation.
 In former times North Carolina was Whig. It had a strong Union party be- fore secession, and probably had less heart in the war than any other of the se- ceding States. Its western, mountainous counties were full of Unionists, and Peace candidate polled large minority of the votes of the State in the heat of the war. Since reconstruction the votes in the State have been as follows;

sIn every direction is muddle- -mHddle 1 with Spsin, muddle with Cuba, muddle with the black republic, muddle with the distant Corea, muddIe with Venzuela, muddle with Russia, muddle with Eng land-on all sides one diversified muddle. ' Mi. Summers speech.
 How unfair and unjust the Massachu- sett Senator can be when blinded by pas sion, prejudice, end naatice, the following fair statement of facts, in reply to the above extract from his speech in the Sen ate will prove:
 1. There is not, nor has there been, any muddle with Spain. Our government de- manded that Dr. Howard, an American citizen uniustly imprisoned, should be set at liberty, and it has been done.
 2. If there is muddle with Cuba, Mir. Sumner is largely responsible, for he has done more to prevent our government from interfering in the Cuban question than any man in the country. He has bitterly opposed the recognition of the belliger- ents. He made speech in Worcester, in which he declared that their constitution was fraud and sham.
 3. The Black Republic muddle, and the San Domingo muddle, have ao existence, except in the m,asdled imagination of Mir. Sumner E 4. The muddle with Venzuela is one of his own legacies. It arose when Andrew Johnson was President, and Charles Sum- ner was chairman of the committee on Foreign Relations. Es' -<ts
 5. He and Catacazy endeavored to make muddle with Russia by tactics which were not creditable to either of them. The Russian government settled that muddle by degrading MT. Catacazy, Mir. Summers co-conspirator, and sending him out of the country. ~-.f
 G. The English muddle had it's origin in MT. Summers own speech in the Senate. He advocated the theory of consequential damages, the adherence to which has been the cause of all our trouble with that country. ... i T. And now, MT. Sumner. your attempt ed reply to speaker Blaine was not a mud dle, bat c .tfzzle;; and if you attempt to re- ply to the very able and candid letter of MT. Garrison, it will prove greater fzzle.

a Long lake never was lower than now. The manufactpries on the stream leading therefrom are.about useless at the pres ent for the want of water. Bass fishing in the Lake is good, and many are the strings of that fish caught eaeh day.
 It is reported that certain men and boys, not having ''the fear of the law" be- fore their eyes, canghf and took away some seventy pounds of bass last Sun day from Little Pond.'
 Five large blocks ara being erected this summer in the borough. The Boards ley block in West St, of brick, has reach ed the third floor in it's construction. The Music Hall building is rapidly rising above it's foundation; this is on the s.Flat. 9 and is to be brick edifce. The fouada- tions are being laid for another block on the same lot by J. Wetmore, Esq, which is to be bni1f in connection with the Music Hall. There is also a new wood block just completed on the ssFlat," own cd by Mrs. c. Baker. and another new large wood block fast approaching, com completion in East St.. owned by Hallett & Gilman. When all these buildings are finished and ready for occupancy we shall have some twelve new stores to rent in town. I would say to all those desiring to open a store in live place, with plenty of back country to draw upon for trade, Rhat here is an opportunity for you.
 The Gilbert Clock Go. are erecting another large brick building, this season. It is 15Ox3O, and to be three stories high. The brick are nearly all laid. When this establishment is in full running order they will employ some 200 hands. We are in great need of tenement houses. Every day, almost. people are searching for a rent and cannot obtain one.
 A large number of city residents are temporarily stopping at two of our hotels this season; the Clarke House and Hicks House being both full to overfowing. On Wednesday last, 8 picnic party composed of the members of the Baptist Sunday School from Waterbury, came mp over the line of the Naugatuck R. R. and went to Wetmore's grove, on the eastern slope of Street Hill. They numbered about 300 children. On the same day an- other excursion of nine cars came over the line of the Cenn. Western on it's way to the Twin Lakes of Salisbury. They were from Simsbury, Tariffville and other places adjacent. There must have been near thousand of them for all the stand ing room both inside and outside as well as the seats were occupied. They were a merry party.
