INDIANAPOLIS, July 21.-The democratic mass
meeting last night, at the academy of music,
was large and enthusiastic. Hon. T. A. Hen
bricks made the principal speech He referred
briefly to the causes that produced the Cncin-
natl convention, its action, and the acceptances
OF It's platform and nominees at Baltimore
This action had been accepted by the Indiana
democracy, who now stood side by side with
the liberal republicans in their endeavor TO re-
lieye our country from the control of cliques
and combinations He eulogized Greeley and said
bis unimpeachable integrity was conceded by his
bittereSt opponents. This he considers the best
possible guarantee for an honest administration /:
and said that felected he Greeley would faith
fully redeem the pledges made to the people
Helthought the abuse account about evenly bal
anced between Greeley and the democracy OF
Gov Brown he said the pacitieation of Missouri
showed his administration there TO have been
without reproach. The Cincinnati platform so
correctly and fully expressed the will of
the people, that 1t escaped even criticism
all could meet and harmonic upon it without
dishOnor or humiliation. He thought it folly to
hesitate any longer in the recognition of the re-
cent constitutional amendments but would
neither approve or excuse the method by which
it was attempted to declare one of them rati-
fed by the Indiana legislature without the
presence of constitutional quorum. That
proceeding must not become a precedent to be
followed in the future. Greeley had agreed TO a
fair, safe and honorable adjustment of the
tariff question, which was to be settled in the
spirit of the constitution, which provides that
all tariff measures shall originate in the house
Of representatives.
He read Greeley's letter of acceptance, and
said that the constitutional rights of the sta ties
were to be respected and loyal state govern
ments preserved. He thought the success of
Greeley would bring about real civil service
reform. 1t was Grants personal partisans who
were wronging the people. Speaking of Il re-
duction of the national debt, he claimed that
had proper economy prevailed, the reduction
would have been much greater. Referring to
Senator Morton's recent speeches, questioning
his sincerity, he said We turu our backs upo1

believe now, that during civil war and until
the passions excited thereby have cooled, the
public mind is not in a condition safely to change
the foundations and framework of the govern

declared adopted, is it humiliation on my part
to cease that controversy, 30 turn my back upon
it, and to declare that the amendments must be
respected and Obeyed?

The Cuban PrIyateer,

NEW YORK, July 21.-The Sunday Herald's
Washington dispatch states that Capt Norton,
Of the Cuban priyateer Pioneer, had an inter
view with Secretary Fish yesterday. Mr.. Fish
declined recognizing Norton as a Cuban officer,
although the latter was in full uniform; but dis
cussed the matter of the seizure Of the Pioneer.
Norton claimed that the Pioneer was sold to the
Cuban authorities at st. Marc, Hayti, after hav-
Ing sold the cargo she took from New York
under the name of the Resolute. Her register
us the Resolute was divided according to law at
st. Marc, oue-half being sent to Minister Bas-
sett and the other half being retained by Nor
ton, who gave it up TO the United States au-
thorities at New York on Thursday last. Since
her sale and change of name the Pioneer has
not once hoisted the American flag, and when
oycrhaued was four miles from land. Secretary
Fish said the Pioneer must be subject to the ac-
ton of the courts. Capt. Norton replied that
that was what he desired, and reminded Mr..
Fish that free Cuba was already recognized by
Chill, Venezuela, Colombia, Granada and Peru.
Mr.. Fish asked Norton if he would haul down
the Cuban flag now flying on the Pioneer, but
Norton said he would leave that for an armed
force of the United States TO do. Norton feels
confident that the Pioneer will be soon released.

the night of Tuesday.

boat, about twenty feet in length, painted white,
and containing crew of five men, was seen in
the harbor. From whence they came or what
their mission might be no one knew. The men,
who were entire strangers, were dressed in
garb usual to boatmen. They were seen TO land
only once, and then at about noon, when they
pulled up on Deacon Charles Mead's beach,
where they apparently partook of some lunch.
They attracted more attention than they were
probably aware of, as the eyes Of all the boat
men in the harbOr were on them during the day,
and at night unusual care was taken 10 make
safe all loose lines and sails. But the burglars,
| as they proved TO be- had other booty in view.
Mr.. Frank June, mentioned above, kept him
self posted in regard to their movements during
the day having a feeling that something was
going wrong. A portion of the store is used
as an office by coal and lumber dealers. Con-
spicuOus in this Office is a large iron safe, which
contains the money aud securities of the firm to
considerable amount. At half-past nine
o'clock June closed his store and went to his
boarding place, a short distance up the street.
June had hardly disappeared before man
was seen TO emerge from behind the building
and try the door. Capt Abraham BrnkerhofI,
who witnessed this man@vre from his window
across the woy. immediately informed Mr. lime
who with Charles Holmes renaired IN tho store
and, making temporary couch under the
counter, awaited developments.
Between twelve and one o'clock they were
awakened by the BARKING of the doc The
same time they heard low talking at the back
door small room at the rear of the store is
partitioned off, and June and Holmes stood at
the partition door, the former being armed with
six-shooter and the latter Win a sevanl
shooter. The burglars quickly wremched omen
the outside door, and stood before the inner one
which was bolted on the inside, One tried the
knob and remarked, "This door is fastened :"
The reply was, DIT, what's the df: yanl

They threw themselves against il several times
