 Mir. Blaine waited until the applause had ceased and then turning to General Fremont took him by the hand and leading him for ward said:
 have said that the Republican party is thirty years old Its infant organization M was in 1854 and nd head a young man but with noble career; career %neh , i reads to the younger generation whiHe ad ing the fire of youth and a vigor which rarely ac- companies three score years and ten have the great honor and pleasure of presenting to this audi ence the first Republican candidate for President (applause)
 General Fremont spoke briefly and was followed by local celebrities. Meanwhile MT. Blaine was conveyed to Williamsburg, where. g crowd of ten thousand men were patiently awaiting in the rain to see and hear him. The platform had been erected over the basin of fountain at Broadway and Fourth street. The neighboring houses were illuminated, and from the windows of the tall buildings around the square many ladies surveyed the scene The rain was falling in torrents. Mir. Blaine was intro Times. With the rain dripping from his tall hat and his hands thrust in his overcoat pockets, MT. Blaine said:
 It evidently takes pretty big rain this year to dampen the ardor of the Republicans The fact of your coming out on such an evening is the best proof of your enthusiastic devotion to the cause Let me briefly state that cause. It is the of the well paid American laborer against the poorly who need the sheltering protection of the tariff their bread honestly in the sweat of their brow It is the cause of the men who represent the bone and upon whose intelligent and well protected labor the progress of the country depends. Now every man shall have fair day wages for fair days work .(Applause) And cali every man to the time fhe Republican party has at 4e the county been blessed by the e3iaenee of protective tariff Upon that record the party .sNeverrO, it would fall by that record and in that faith (Applause2 The party had its origin in not been followed with such legislation as secured in this campaign (appiause) Mr Blaine went on to speak of the relatively greater interest of New merce, and therefore argued the inn portance to the citizens of the Aprotective tariff suit the Republican party guarantees. He also referred to the advantage of a sound cur rency so that laborer knew his wages represented one hundred cents the dollar It is the proudest boast of the Republican party, he concluded, that they have not only secured the development of the largest industrial interests of the country but they have provided that every laborer in the land shall be paid in honest money for his faithful work
 This sentiment was warmly applauded by the crowd, which, in contrast to former au- diences of the evening, was chiefly composed of workingmen. After leaving the stand Mr. Blaine was driven to the Republican headquarters in Montague street where he reviewed the parade of uniformed clubs Despite the rain twenty-five thousand were in the line and the streets were well filled with spectators At late hour MT. Blaine returned to the Fifth Avenue Hotel in New York and retired for the night.
