CITY POLITICS.

A large and enthusiastic meeting of
the democrats of the Fourth Ward, was
held last evening, in Saenger Hall,
Fourth street, below Walnut.
The meeting was organized by calling
w. Ii. Brady, Esq, to the chair, as sec
retary.
The first speaker was Mr.. James II.
Myers, who spoke for some time, in
very acceptable manner, in which he
gave short and concise history of the
national parties, and called upon the
democratic voters to support the ticket
that had been nominated. III. X. Pening-
ton, Esq, followed in short and very
happy address, III which he eulogzed the
democratic party, as the great party of the
people, and showed that when that party
was in power, the reins of government
were handled honestly, while on the
other hand the republican party increased
| taxation, and reveled in debauchery.
Edmund B. Frazer was the next speak
er. He said the people were more direct
| ly interested in municipal election than
| in State or national contest. The re-
suit bears more directly upon the people.
| lie urged the Democrats to give at least
one half day of their time to the election
and see that full vote was brought out.
The City Council to be elected would
have to spend the peoples money and as
it had been spent wastefully in the past
every man was interested in having this
matter entrusted to good hands. In con-
clusion he predicted the triumphant cleo
ton of the Democratic candidate fol
Mayor.
III. g. Tuner, ESD, compared the two
candidates for Mayor, and made favor
able showing for Mr.. Almond the Demo.
cratic candidate.
James p. Hayes referred to the financia
condition of the city. lie said the bond
ed debt of the city was over 81, 100000
more than the debt of the State. 1t ba:
almost doubled in the last seven years
The taxes collected during July are al
gone and there is a floating debt Of nearly
100000. lie said change in the city
government was imperatively needed.
The meeting then adjourned.

Grants Military Friends will
ReDay Him with Interest.

From the Jersey City Argus. August %. ]
The war is thing of the past, aud
Grants popularity on that score is of n
piece with it. Besides, Grants war
achievements were nothing, SO far as
Grant himself is concerned. He defeat
ed Lee, it is true, but it was by sheer
force of numbers in front of Lees army,
while the rebel base of supplies had been
cut off in the rear by Sherman-a move
ment Grant opposed-and when the nom
lnaLion is made Grants military friends
will expose his pretentions. He has set
them the example through John Russell
Young and Adam Badeau, and when the
time comes they will repay him with in
terest. Shiloh aad the Wilderness are
Grants great strongholds in the way OF
war reputation, and when the truth
comes to be told about those two fights
Grants military reputation will be a
tattered garment.

JUsr at the time il would do the
most damage to Gov. McCreasy in his
Senatorial race, the Chancellor Of
Central University Published letter
in the Cowier-Jomnoi accusing him
of too great fondness for exercising his
official clemency towards convicts. A
correspondent Of the Cincinnati In.
quirey efuies this by showing from
the records that Governor McCrcsry
pardoned only 80 convicts during the
year 1877, while the average number
per year by his predecessors was
about 100. The correspondent fur
ihrr shows that the Chancellor was nc.
tuaicd by malice in his publication

leaving it in the discretion of juries to

man the right to wear weapons con-
