GRAND DEMocnAr1c R.n,Y--rast NIGHT

Judges Hardy and Berry. The evening,
though cold was pleasant, there being
but little wind, and the people seemed
determined to let no Inconvenience
arising from the chilly air, prevent
them from listening to the exposition of
the duties of Democrats from the lips of
the prominent members of the party who
addressed them. After the meeting was
called to order, Judge Knight Was elected
Chairman, and introduced the Hon. j.
H. Hardy.
Judge Hardy held his audience in
wrapt attention by his scathing and mas
teriy expose Of the delinquencies OF the
Grant Administration, showing that the
moving spirit of that clique was simply
question of money, and none oth,r.
There was one point that the Judge made
that was worthy the serious attention of
all parties, and that is, whether the stock
reasons that the Grant men are so per
slstently advancing for the reelection of
Grant to second term of office, would
not apply with equal force to third
term and fourth term? Judge Hardy
also clearly showed the folly of those
men who had hitherto called themselves
Democrats and acted with the Demo-
cratic party, in listening to the insiduous
wiies SO lndustrlously poured into their
ears, for the purpose if possible of divid-
ing the party, and by that means securing
the election OF Grant. The Judge closed
with an eloquent and lofty appeal, show
ing that now was the time to restore the
era OF amlty, to bury the animosities and
discord Of the past, and together with
clasped hands and common purpose to
achieve common prosperity and a com.
mon glory. Judge Hardy elected great ap.
plause and received three hearty cheers
on retiring. Judge Berry then took the
stand, and after expressing his surprise
at the vast mass of listners which he
SAID far exceeded in numbers that of a
late mass meeting in Virginia which was
addressed by Senator Nye. The udge
went on to show the animus that pre-
vaded the Baltimore Convention of
which he was member, and how over.
whelmning was the desire of the
members OF the Convention who repre-
rensented the Southern States to secure
the nomination of Mr.. Greeley. In spite
of the past and of all political differ noes
they felt that Horace Greeley had good
benevolent and generous heart, that he
was honest, and that they could place
themselves with implicit confidence in
his hands certain that he would rescue
them from the rule of the accnrsed
carpet -bagoers of which they have so
long been the victims. The Judge then
most ably ahd clearly discussed the evils
inhicted on the country by the present
corrupt administration, and called upon
all Democrats and the Liberal Rppubl-
cans to join III determined effort to
dllve IRON power the men who had
shown how untit they were to possess it.
The udge was listened 10 with much
attention, and afforded great pleasure to
his large and earnest audience.
Cold WEATHER.-Y Yesterday morning
before sunrise the ground. and especially
the surrounding hills, was covered with
heavy hoarfrost, and the air was ex.
ceedingly chilly. By the passengers
that arrived last night from Hamilton,
we learn that when the stage left that
place a snow storm was commencing.
and the surrounding mountains were
completely covered with snow. This
would seem to indicate an early
and severe winter, though in this State
we have seen the occurrence of quite
severe and stormy weather in November,
| and then clear off and remain fine until
| after Christmas. To the best of our re-
collection, the winter of 1878 was of
this character. m
ALARM BELL.--Pat. Holland yesterday
received telegram from Mr.. Kirchner,
of Hamilton, stating that bell intended
for the use of the Fire Department of
Phoebe had been shipped per express
from Hamilton. An alarm bell has been
and is much nesded by the fire COM
panies, and will be found extremely use
iul in warning the members that their
services are needed. The cost of the bell
will be about $50, and We hope our citi-
zens vii subscr be the amount W til
readiness, for it is enough to ask fire.
man to perform his arduous and at times
dangerous duties without having to pay
Tor his apparatus.
Coal MINEs.-Mr, N. F. Tarpey. the
well known and esteemed Secretary of
the Meadow Valley Mining Company,
has just returned from trip to the above
mines, which he says are situate in the
| Wasatch range, about 100 miles due east
of Phoebe. Mr.. Tarpey is very favoraby
impressed with the prospsct of procur-
ing an abundant supply Of fuel from the
region he visited.
The New THEATBE.-Mr. C. B. I.ov.l,
to whom We referred few days since as
endeavoring to form joint stock COM
pany for the purpose Of erecting a thea
tire, informs us that he has received
promises of support from many of our
best citizens. Mr.. Lowell will commence
canvassing the city to day, when all who
desire to take shares in the stock will
have an opportunity to do SO. The UNI
dertaking besides sffording much needed
accommodation for theatrical entertain
ments, balls, &c., will no doubt afford a
handsome return to the stockholders.
