demonstration as large and imposing as
possible. The procession formed on Sixth
street. in front of the Democratic head
quarters. the right resting on X. The line
of march was down X to Second, to }, to
Tenth, to X, to Fifth, counter-marched
to Eighth, to J, to Sixth, to Arinory Hall:
The Hussar band marched at the head of
fine procession. followed by the Cleveland
and Hendricks Fire Brigade in their hand
some uniforms, 131 in number Following
the brigade, drawn by four gray horses, was
an old and dilapidated thrashing engine.
Canvas was stretched on both sides, on
which was written in large letters, This is
no ring machine Following this ON
two-horse wagon was large transparency
representing Controller Dunn examining
the accounts of defaultng State officials.
Another on a similar wagon represented
Cleveland as the coming man, and the Re-
publican candidates warming themselves
over a campfire, Blaine remarking to Lo-
gan Its cold day for you and me, Jack.
The second DIVISION composed OF the
| Young Mems Cleveland and Hendricks
Club, was headed by the Sacramento Drum
| Corps. They turned out 30S strong, Wore
verg handsome uniforms, and taken alto
gether were a handsome lot OF young men.
Next III line and bringing up the rear were
| sixtv-nine citizens bearing torches. The
l
marching only three abreast and
| quite a distance apart. About half
of those in line were supplied with
red lights and Roman candles which were
burned along the route, making quite q
pleasing effect. Several small Transparent
| cies, complimentary to their Congressional
and county candidates, were carried. This
was by far the best demonstration-509 in
line-that the Democracy have made in the
city during the present campaign.
At Armory Hall the meeting, which was
quite large was called to order by the
| Chairman of the County Central Com
mittee who named the following officers
Chairman, George w. Carey; Vice-Presi-
dents. Governor George Stoneman, F. w.
Frat e. p Figg, A. ]. Muir, Richard
Irwin, Thomas l.. Acock, William O'Brien,
Maurice Sheehan, +. Baumle, A Block,
Anthony Green, Thomas Jones, S. R. Cald-
well, Alexander Dunn, James Woodburn,

Q. Brown, Henry Trichler, A. J. Danis,
John Rooney, NJ. l.. Smith; Secretaries,

On assuming the duties of the chair, Mr..
Carey addressed himself particularly to the
young men composing the Cleveland and
Hendricks Club. He said no man felt
| prouder of the young and enthusiastic
. Democracy than did he. He said the
young Democracy throughout the United
States. if imbued with the enthusiasm of
| that of this city, the election of Grover
| Cleveland was assured. He claimed that
| the influence of the young Democracy of
Sacramento city was felt all along the line,
! infused new life in the older members of
| the party, and would surely wrest from the
dominant party the control of the affairs of
| the nation. He then introduced the orator
| of the evening, Colonel George Flournoy.
| He was suffering from a severe cold and
| in no condition TO speak. He spoke for
about an hour and ably and eloquently set
| forth the reasons from a Democratic stand
point why Grover Cleveland should be
elected to the Presidency. Like all the
! Democratic speakers who have preceded
him, he insisted that the welfare of the
| nation demanded change of political
| management. He spoke at length on the cor
ruption of Republican administrations and
touched lightly the tariff question. The
meeting closed with three cheers for the
national and local tickets.
THE JosEFFY CoycERT.-This evening, at
the Sixth-street NJ L. Church, Rafael Jo-
| seffy, assisted by Mrs. A. NJ. Noble, of
Amelia BOIL, of this city. will give an en-
tertainment in aid of the Christmas fund of
the Protestant Orphan Asylum. There viii
undoubtedly be large attendance, as the
good people OF Sacramento are ready at any
time to do something for the little unfortu-
mates gathered together under the care of
the ladies managing the asylum, and on
this occasion there is added to the satisfac
ton of being charitable the qualification of
= - !
the world. Speaking Of a concert given by |
Josetty recently one of the San Francisco |
papers said: :" The wondrous strains of the /
pianist vanished all feelings but those of
delight Since his former appearance in |
this city it may be said that JOsehy has |
| made improvement, if improvement be |
! possible where perfection was so nearly ap- |
preached. The marvellous delicacy and |
/ brilliancy of his execution, the feeling he |
| displays. and the perfect Interpretation he |
gives of the numbers selected entitle him |
to be ranked as the king Of the keyboard. !
| The audience frequently rose to enthusi- !
asm, and the entertainment throughout, |
| though unrelieved by vocal or other instru |
mental assistance, did not seem in the least
monotonouS to lovers of good music"
AN INSANE ESCAPE The crank who sent
dispatch from this city to the Examiner
on Saturday night, and represented the
Democratic parade on that evening as hay
ing utterly demoralized the Republicans, |
exceeded all previous demonstrations etc, |
and that friends of J. X. Glascock claim |
that the result in this county will insure his |
election, and candid Republicans admit |
that the Democrats will elect almost their |
entire county ticket, should he carefully |
taken upon two gOod-SiZed clips and |
dumped uncerem0niously in some remote |
place. There is no desire upon the part of |
the RECORD UNION to do otherwise than to |
give fair and impartial reports Of political |
demonstrations, whether Democratic or |
Republican, and 10 newspaper. however |
strongly partisan, can afford T. d. less |
Due credit has been given in these columns |
TO the large demonstrations in this city by |
the Democrats, but any statement that |
they have been OF sufficient magnitude to
indicate the least entertainment upon the
Republican vote or that the Republicans
will not give their usual, if not an in
creased, majority for their county as well |!
as the general tickle, is too absurd to DENY,
and indicates that there has been an escape |
from an Insane Asylum

IMMIGRATION WoRK.-W. B. Iardner, of
Auburn, and Secretary of the Auxiliary
immigration Association of Placer county,
was in the city on Saturday and saws the
association there has opened an Office and
will vigorously carry on the work pointed
out in the organization. As soon as the
political campaign is concluded it is 10 be
hoped that all the counties included in the
Northern California Association will do
likewise, and. from reports and present in
dicadons, there is no doubt that such will
be the case.
