the outskirts of the city where Gen. Ben.
F. Butler of Massachusetts, spoke TO all
who could get within the sound of his
clear far reaching voice.
The torch light procession at night was
the most bewildering night demonstra ion
| ever saw. 1t is pronounced the largest
and finest ever seen, even here where over
whelming demonstrations are notunusual.
over one hundred bands of music were in
the procession and about 10000 torches
made the streets sea of fire. Though it
rained before the procession passed down
Fifth avenue, the finest decorated street in
the city, the hundred thousand people on
the streets singing army and patriotic
songs held their ground, and wildly cheer
ed each passing Club or imposing array of
Generals and their brilliantly decorated
stats leading the different brigades and d.
visions, Gems. Hartranft, Burnside, Lo-
gan, Negley, Chapman, White, Hawley,
Woodford, &C., commanded brigades and
divisions, all in brilliant uniforms and
with q mounted escort.
1t is estimated that ever 10000 strangers
visited the city during the convention.
Pittsburg prepared for large crowd, but
so many more came than were expected
that on the 18th every bakery, restaurant
and eating house in the centre Of the city
was oblige TO shut up for want of provi-
sions. Even hosp1table PlttSourg was
over-reached and over come. Even the
lager beer gave out and on Wednesday
night glass of beverage commanded a
premium. This shows how much greater
was the crowd than was anticipated. The
vast concourse was orderly beyond all eX-
pectation, was enthusiastic and earnest
and shows, that Western Pennsylvania is
all sound for Grant and Wilson and Hart
ranft. The election Of the latter seems to
be generally conceded, as it is confidently
predicted by his friends. Allegheny coun-
ty promises him five to seven thousad ma
jority.
But my space forbids further comment
on the grand soldiers and sailors conven-
ton OF 1872, which will stand in history as
the grandest peace demonstration yet made
by the Veterans of the war Of the rebel
lion.
