NEW YORK.

NEW York, May 5.--At meeting OF
Democrats from all parts of the country
in the rooms Of the Manhattan Club
last night Augustus Shell presided and
stated the object of the meeting in the
following address of welcome: THE
occasion is one of great interest to us,
to our city, to our State and our
country. We have met together once
more to feel that the great Democratic
principles of our government are recog-
nized throughout the country. The re-
cent elections bring wildly to our minds
the condition Of our country twenty
years ago, when the Democratic party
was in the full tide OF successful expert
ment, when our government was ably
governed by men of integrity and char
acter. We are happy to meet you on
this occasion to join with us in celebrat-
ing this return to great principles, and
we are satisfied before another Presiden-
tial election shall have passed, we shall
not only be represented in States, but in
the Presidential chair, by Democrats of
virtue and ability"

of doubtful efficiency. On paper there
are fifty-fve ironclads. Of which forty-one
are sea-going aud fourteen adapted for
hsrbor and coast defense. OF the forty
one sea- going ironclads Eve must be de-
ducted as still on the docks and nine
others as either obsolete or not worth
repairing for sea-going purposes. This
reduces the list to twenty.seven, and Of
these only fourteen can be regarded as
really effective for service at the present
moment, though four more, or eighteen
in all, will perhaps be ready in the
course Of the year. Moreover, some Of
the ships now undergoing repairs cannot
be counted upon as good for more than
year. Then of the fourteen ironclads
for harbor defense, one is building, and
there are only eight fit for service.
