CINCINNATI, September 23.-The COM

The reform ratification meeting, called
for last evening in College Hall, was held
at the time and place advertised. The in
clement weather was the case Of keeping
many citizens in their homes, and it may
have been well that Providence intervened,
for the hall. was crowded notwithstanding
the rain; had the evening been pleasant
one, those in attendance would have been
crowded To- discomfort. AS early as Z
o'clock gentlemen. began arriving, and in
less than an hour about one hundred good
Democrats were on hand. The complexion
OF the meeting was not tsuch as to give much
hope to the McLeanites, as the "kid
glove" Democrats were greatly in the
minority. Brawny.fsted working men,
wearing checked shirts, sat side by side
with men attired in broadcloth, with dia-
monds in "biled" shirt bosoms. While
waiting for the calling to order Of the
meeting, the gentlemen on the floor OF the
ball collected in groups and discussed the
situation. Determination wss plainly Wis
ible, and from the expressions Of extreme
disgust would-be Boss Johnny can judge
as TO what will greet the creatures Of his
creation on the 9th Of October next.
The meeting was enthusiastic beyond
conception, and as the speakers were inter
rupted from time TO time by the elated and
sympathetic audience, the walls fairly
shook with the applause by which those in
attendance expressed their qualification and
approval. Long, loud and frequent were
tie bursts Of applause, and the more bitter
and scathing the remarks made in reference
to the Highland House Convention and
ticket, and the mean methods and men by
which they were controlled, the better
were they received, and by the time the
meeting closed everybody had in some way
given expression 10 their sympathy in the
movement and their hearty support Of the
ticket. There have been rnmors in circu-
lation to the effect that before election day
comes around the "Reformers" will be
small in numbers, but II each gentleman
present at last evenings meeting takes as
much interest in the coming canvass as he
displayed there, the public generally, and
the McLeanites in particular, will be dumb

All railways have been ordered to have
military cars in readiness. A list has been
