OUR WASRINGTON LETTER.
WASHINGTON. June IG. 1879

WASHINGTON. June lG, 1879
The demonstration given by the
adherents of Hon. Thomas Ewing,
the Democratic nominee for Govern
or of Ohio, last week, was successful
in point of numbers but lacked the
enthusiasm incidentto such occasions
The crowd formed ia front of VIII
lard's hotel from the balcony of
which The speeches we're made, was
~variously estimated at from 5000 to
5000. The majority of the assem-
blage, however, were department
clerks, who were collected TO the
scene by curiosity, aGd not sympa-
thy. This fact was clearly demon
strsted by the actions Of the crowd
toward the speakers. Whilst the
speakers were dilating on the excel
lencies of the Democratic nominees
and platform there was but little n
thusiasm but any ludicrous incident
or speech evoked shouts of applause.
Senator Thurman presided. lie ex-
cused himself from making a speech
on account of being tired from the
days labor. Consling and Edmunds
bad him on the defensive ia the Sem
ate, and the pointed tbrns,s Of Blaine
bothered The old MAJ a great deal.
He pulled U his red bandana hand
kerchief to wipe bis brow and the
boys perfectly howled Senate
Thurman closed by introducing Sea-
ator Vest, Of Missouri, who present
ed tie Democratic standard bearer.
Of Ohio, Hon. Thomas Ewing. In
the course of the %latter's remarks be
characterized Ohio as the blt,le
ground of both parties and said the
struggle would be a bitter ard des-
pera.e one. 1t would be similar to
the battle Of Waterloo, for upon it
depends the election Of the President
in 1850 and the salvation Of a great
country.
Joe Blackburn AID cur "Alec" was
there to cheer Up The boys by their
smiling ~cJanteaances. Gen Cofroth
didn't get 3 show, as tie crowd bel
lowed for blackburn and Senator
Vance. joe showed the pselessness
of waving the "enssnguined garment"
by the Republican party and the
downfall oil class legislation.
Senator Vance claimed be was an
u%nrepentant rebel, saying be feared
no fire during the war aud had eaten
no dirt SINCE. His remarks were in
t~efspersed with ludicroas anecdotes
which made kin . great iaYorlte With
the audience and when be closed they
remained fer soGie minutes cheering
him
In the procession was a trsnspa-
rency representing G ballot box pierre
