INDIANAPOLIS, October 1.-THE Re,
publican meeting at the wlgwam tonight
TOR c0ngratulatiOn was addressed by Gen
Brown, Senator Morton, Hon. ]. w. Cor.
don and Hon. Jason B. Brown.
SPEECH OF SENATOR MORTON.
The following Is a abriefeXlract OF Sena.
tor Morton's speech:
"All have conceded that II the Repub.
lican party carried Pennsylvania, Ohio
and Indiana in October the Presidential
question was settled In favor OF Gen.
Grant. II on the other hand, those three
States, or two OF them, were carried by
the Democrats in October, 1t still left the
question open, because many Democrats
from tho first have declared that they
would not vote for Horace Greeley under
any circumstances. After a cam.
paign In which tho Democrats have
worked with such desperation and
personal defamation and calumny
have been uhwonted in malignity, es.
pecially in Pennsylvania and Indiana.
Pennsylvania has been carried by thirty
thousand, and will give over fifty thou.
sand for Grant. Ohio has been carried
by over fifteen thousand, and will give
more thnn twice that majority In NOvem.
Der. We carried Indiana in 1868, by
only nine hundred and sixty.one, though
the real honest majority was not less than
five thousand, and General Grant carried
the State by nearly ten thousand the next
month. In 1870 the election almost went
by default, and we were beaten about
two thousand five hundred. We entered
this race with that majority against US.
MIR. Hendricks started out with the as.
surance that he would receive ten thou.
sand majority. Half dozen men who
lett tho Republican party, announced
that they would lead over from eleven to
fifteen thousand Liberals 10 the Demo.
cracy. The campaign has been bitter
THO assaults on General Brown have
been peculiarly malignant. The re.
suit IS that Gen. Brown seems, as the
figures are reported, to be defeated by q
lew hundred, while the Republicans have
elected the 1t. Governor, Secretary of
State, Auditor, Treasurer, and other State
officers; the Congressman at Large, ten
or eleven in all out OF thirteen Congress.
men, and majority in both Houses Of
the Legislature. l predict that when the
official count is made 1t will turn out that
the State officers have named have re-
ceiyed larger vote than Mr.. Hendricks,
and that if elected he has been elected
by minority. Indiana is Republican.
Mr.. Voorhees, defeat is full Of significance.
Elected two years ago by about 1,400
majority and personally very popular, he
has just been defeated by about 900. He
had in Congress and at home spoken his
sentiments last summer when he said no
honest Democrat could vote for Greeley
with any self respect, and the Democracy
then responded to it. His sudden rever-
sal OF position and gross tlattery of Mr..
Greeley when here have been rcbukcd by
his disguised constituents. Mr.. Niblac
too, who before had $3.50 majority has
now, it is said, but 1876, and Is even report.
ed that Mr.. Heilman, the Republican can.
didAte. may be elected. So General Man
son, Of Lafayette, has been defeated and
the Legislature elected two years ago, the
like OF which VIC hope never to sec again,
is now succeeded in both branches by a
Republican majority. II is substaliAl
victory, full OF results. In November we
shall give Gen. Grant not less than TO-.
600 and probably 10000 majority. The
unprinCipled and merccnary coal-
ton has been dissolved. | am
not sure but that the Democracy
would have been stronger without the
coalition. The Greeley dCluson has pass.
cd away like Il noxious vapor. Many Of
their papers have been giving up the con.
tests The Germans in Indiana have vim
dicated their intelligence and iudepend.
enCc. No man owns them and no politi-
clan carries them in his vest pocket.
From the first l have believed that they
could not be seduced from the Republican
party and its principles. believe that,
taking It altogether, VIC received US many
German votes on Tuesday last as at any
proceeding election.
