Speaker Blaine Goes to the Rec ord

Speaker Blaine Goes to the Record.
Boston, Oct 3O.-A very large Republican
meeting was held in Charlestown this evening,
and was addressed by Speaker Blaine and
marks, Blaine repeated the charge that the
disturbed condition of the South was largely
due to the attitude of the Northern Democratic
party in regard to the 18th and 18th constitu-
tional amendments. 1t was the general, if not
universal, belief among Southern Democrats
and White Leagues that Democratic victory
in the nation would nullify or neutraize those
amendments, and hence with this hope the
South was kept back from that hearty recon-
ciliation which would come from a fair and
final acceptance of the amendments in good
faith. The Southern Democrats were sencour-
aged in this dangerous belief by the fact that
no Democratic platform of any weight or
character in this country, state or national,
has ever endorsed those amendments, while
Democratic declarations against them have
been numerous and authoritative. In the last
Congress the Democratic members of the re-
construction committee made minority report
signed by Frank p Blair, Senator Bayard of
Delaware, Jas. B. Beck of Kentucky, and
Samuel S. Cox of New York, in which they
avowed the broad and bold doctrine that the
political rights of the colored man. as conferred
by constitutional amendments, would go down
with the Republican party. These gentlemen
distinctly declared that "the state of the public
mind sustaining negro suffrage will gradually
wear away, anu puDHc opinion VIII VlDrate TO
its old condition as it existed prior to the dis
turbing influence of the war;
When such declarations as these, he said
coming from Democrats who are ranked as
Conservative, are scattered through the South,
as they have been most industrously and most
Indignantly, the worst passions are aroused,
and the peaceful settlement Of Southern
troubles is thus rendered infinitely harder than
it would otherwise be. An hearty cooperation
of the leading Democrats could speedily pro-
duce a change for the better in the South, He
had made bold to say he could name ten Demo-
Gratis whose united efforts would be potential in
the premises, two of them from New York.
He meant Horatie Seymour, late Democratic
candidate for the Presidency, and Samuel j.
Tilden, the present Democratic candidate for
Governor of the Empire State. u

A MEETING to ratify the nomination of
Hon. Isaac 81. Bailey in the XIth New York
district, was held Wednesday evening. Many
prominent gentlemen were present and the
meeting was large and enthusiastic. Mr..
Jackson S. Schultz endorsed Mr., Bailey as in
favor of revenue reform and as a gentleman
who thoroughly understood the needs of
New York merchants. Mr.. Bailey addressed
the meeting at length on the pressing ques-
ton of the day-especially the currency ques-
tion-saying that the West must be taught
that their interests were not in conflict with
those of the East. He reviewed the currency
legislation of last winter and believed that it
would even be remembered to the Presidents
honor that he struck the first blow against
any watering of the currency. He was amused
to see men dealing with distractions like
the third term questionable chimera of a
newspaper when such important questions
were before the country. On motion of
Judge Ditenhoffer resolutions were adopted
expressing faith in the national administra-
ton, approving Gov. Dix and ratifying the
nomination OF Mr.. Bailey.

some $500. The Attorney General has deter
mined to present to the Grand Jury for indict.

The Military Situation.
The same correspondent telegraphs that the
military situation, in nut shell, is this: On
receiving Major Merrill's report of arrests
made on his affidavit at Shreveport, General
Emory dsowned his action and instructed
Merrill to cease all arrests except such as were
ordered on processes of the United States
Courts.
General Emory has forwarded all the cor
respondence to Washington. Up to this mo,
ment it is not known whether the President
will sustain the orders of the General com
handing or pass over Merrill's peccadilloes. Ii
is given out by Democratic soldiers that they
look to Gen Sherman to check Washington
influence in favor of Merrill. Attorney Gener-
al Field told me he believed that Merrill was
acting under direct orders from Washington,
independent of General Emory.
