FROM THE WORLD,
The World says the Grant meeting ysster.
DAY evening was perhaps nearly as large, but
certainly not larger, as that great meeting OF
Liberal hepuhltoals last week, but in politi-
cal significance there can be no comparison
between them. Nobody has ever disputed
that majority OF the Republican party favor
the reelection Of Grant. or course then, in a
great city Ike this, with the aid Of the Custom
House, postofi, ces, Internal Revenue Offices
and other appOintees Of the President il Is
easy enough % get nP public meeting, bat
fore. II these place-men and hireliuQs had
been absent the meeting would have had
no life and would have been Insignificant Ia
numbers.
FROM THE TRIBUNE.
The Tribune says those citizens who desire
the reelection or GeperaI Grant held meet
ing at the Cooper Institute last evening, and
We're addressed by able and eminent speakers.
Jnnke the Liberal Republicans who made no
special exertions, and hardly gave the late
meeting the ordinary publicity, and incurred
scarcely any expense. The Grant men strain
ed every nerve, and exhausted all devices fof
attracting attention To make the demonstra-
ton an overwhelming success. They did not
aIter al get IN the hail Of the Institute 50 large
an AUDIENCE as that which 50 spontaneously
packed IL last Friday night to hear Senators

The ReTcld says: Our report Of the meeting

Grant as Read OF the National Government,
that the speeches END resolutions Of the lneet-
Ing speak the common Judgment Of the coun-
try a. lar as made known In recent State cleo
lions ano IN conventions Of the Republican
party. A meeting such rs this in adVauce OF
the nomination Of Presidential candidate By
either OF the two great political parties, is an
extraordinary event, but when rumors Of rev
OiutiOnary disturbances are anOat our solid.
responsible citizens are quick to take alarm
and come 10 the front in exDression of tHeii
Judgment on public men and public affairs

The Times says: q The proceedings at the
great meeting last evening Afforded I fair IDEA

natural expressions Of satisfaction with the
administration which have been steadily
growing for the past three years which only
needed an opportunity to declare its extent
