NORWICH, Conn, Nov. 1.-The largest pO-
litie..l demonstration ever known In this
part Of Connecticut was made today. Mr..
Blaine and General King Of Baltimore ar
rived by a special train about noon, and
were driven to Washington square. In the
center Of the city They were met by Hon.
Morgan G. Bulkeley of Hartford and Hon.
Charles A. Russell OF Killing.y. A process
sion of 5000 men escorted the party TO VIII
liams's Park, where an audience Of 1900
was gathered from all parts Of eastern Con-
nectcut. Hon. H. l.. Osg0od presided. Ad-
dresses were made by Messrs. Blaine, King.
Bulkeley and Russell. After discussing the
tariff question Mr.. Blaine referred 10 Secre-
tary Bayard's speech last night. He said
Mr.. Bayard was a gentleman Of very high
sentiment He clothes every thing with SEN
ment. Bayard, Thurman and others unite
in eondemnlng what they call the wicked
conspiracy of Republicans that entrapped
Lord Sackville into writing his letter, and
Mr.. Bayard calls do gn the wrath Of the
country upon these most wicked eonspirators
that got up the letter that Lord Sackville
answers. He thought Mr.. Bayard put him
self in a very peculiar position, because II
there were a wicked conspiracy Of leading
Republicans to entrap Lord Saekville into
writing an imprudsnt letter, these cOnspira-
tors ought to have been punished; but instead
Of that he punished Lord Sackville, by
Sins Of these conspirators. Even this they
did not do until they had waited ten days
and received adviees and telegrans from all
parts Of the country, II they did not start

know that President Cleveiand's admiuistra-
ton deliberately weighed Lord Sackville
against the Irish vote, and started him."
Mr.. Blaine also called attention to the fact
that the New York Work, Democratic or
gan which Is opposing Abram Hewitt, this
morning reproduced the Morey letter
that was forged eight years
ago against General Garfield. and
was true letter, and aided In putting the
forgery into circulation. Mr.. Blaine said:
Now there Is an old adage about somebody
falling out and honest men getting their
dues laughterI; but 1 did not expect 10 live
TO see the day when one section OF the Dem
oeratic party would want to swear of the re-
sponsibillty Of the MOrey letter upon the
other. There II stands the audacous for
gerry reproduced, forgery all through, and
one Of the Democrats whO gave his high rep
utatiOn and high character to put IL Into cir
culation. Abram Hewitt, 1t rises up against
now, not from Republicans. but from Demo-
Gratis; and when the Democrats all get to
exposing each other great applause that
will be terrible day. Applausel, III they
do that the Republicans would not need to
have stump speeches.. or mass meetings. or
flags, or any other Of the paraphernalia TO
carry on an election. The election would
carry on itself whenever we can get the
Democrats to tell on each other.
The Democratic party never has conducted
the affairs Of this country with Great Britain
with dignity or advantage to the country;
never. And II you will contrast the admin
istrati0ns Of General. Grant and Abraham
Lincoln, In their conduct Of affairs with
Great Britain. with what has been done by
the Democratic party, you would ask no
other issue. We owe 10 the Democratic
party and its bad diplomacy, the loss OF
British Columbia, that vast province on the
Pacific Coast which would give us an entire
coast from Behring Strait down TO the Gulf
of California. To the bad diplomacy
and surrender Of the Democratic party,
we owe the reciprocity treaty OF 1855
In which we got about one article TO forty, as
compared with the Canadians. A reelpr0ei-
ty treaty which was thirty-nine degrees on
one side, which was our opponents, and one
degree on our side-we owe thatto them. In
