oughly cngrossed with the subject Of tho mon
ster mass-mceting and procession that were
to come off in the evening, and had little else to
think Of. The Democrats busted themselves in
the discussion of routine affair connected with
the campaign, and nothing occurred which par
took in the least Of the sensational character.

Hall, and Sunday afternoon at Miller's Hall,
corner OF Sedgwick street and North avenue.
The City Central Committee talked over local
matters and resolved to make the campaign
hot, To this end, they decided on q more
thorough canvass Of the city. It was
not expected that the campaign would progress
very far before they would raise the cry that
stniggers are being colonized," and the City
Central Committee, true to its character and
the expectation formed, has raised this cry.
Hence they have decided up,,n this more active
canvass Of the city, for the purpose SO they say,
of preventing this favorite Republican scheme.
