THE GATHERING A FINE ONE
II was splendid audience which met the
managers Of the Republican Club as they filed
upon the platform of the Cooper Union stage
shortly after o'clock. and the few policemen
scattered over the hall appeared like candle
sticks from which all the talow and wick
had evaporated. They were useless, as they
always are in a Republican gathering. In the
good old days Captain McCullagh used to
stand guard at Republican rallies with his
men in that hall but ii was always to the en-
ioyment of Captain McCuagh and for the
benefit of the less intelligent men in his COM
mand He never expected trouble at Re-
publican meeting in Cooper Institute Hall, and
neyer had any.
The meeting last night was under the auspices
Of the Republican Club Of New-York. and II

Of the speakers gave a sort of keynote to the
sentiment with which all were animated.
There were men and women in the audience.
as there always are where Republicans assemble
together in mass-mectings. Women are not
afraid of being shocked at Republican political
gatherings. and they never sfraid to lend
their presence to such occasions. And that is
feature of Republican meetings which is not
identified with Democratic meetings in political
campaigns.
A splendid group Of the members of the
Republican Club formed circle upon the stage
around the speakers of the evening. Alfred /
Dodge and General Henry l.. Burnett sat near |
the chairman Henry Gleason arrived some
what late; SO did William Leary and George !
Gunton. the well-known advocate of laboring !
men. But the stage was filed with men of |
position in city and State affairs, and the audi
was all that any Republican speaker !
could desire.
