to morrow.
The popular impression left by the great patrl
otto parade Of Saturday was not hard to discover
yesterday II was the topic which interested
everybody in every part OF the city. and in every
walk OF life. The oldest inhabitant had never
seen or heard Of anything Of the XII that ap-

fervent loyalty to the Fiagnc ody couli compare
IT to anything except the spirit Of 1861 when the
country respo: ID as one man at the call Of
Abraham Lincoln to put down treason and re-

Ninety-ninc citizens out OF a hundred believed
yesterday that the great demonstration that
witnessed from early morning till dark
the day previous. sounded the death-kne OF
Bryanis:l. Atgcldism. Tillmanism and Debsism,
and that the electors not only Of the great

SHOWS HOW NEw-YoRK STANDS.
New-York City's peerless response Of Saturday
proved beyond question where the masses OF her
honest law-abidng citizens stand on the ques-
ton of the hour. and the telegraph has already
carried the news to every nool. and corner OF the
Union. II only remains for men who would
repel tho Bryan,e assault upon civilization and
law and order to make their way to the polls to-
morrow and cast their votes
one Of the noticeable features Of the glorious
parading column Saturday was the absence
OF counter demonstrations along the line OF
march. At about every large political parade
which has taken place in New-York w in a gen.
Grafton II has been the custom for small bodies
Of stout-lunged young enthusiasts OF the oppo-
site party to hang on the lanks OF the procession
and yell and shout for the opposing candidates
for President. The almost total absence Of
cheers for Bryan and of phrases antagonistic to
Mckinley remarked as indicating the unan-
unity OF sentiment which prevailed among the
hundreds Of thousands Of spectators which lined
the streets and watched tn imposing column OF
10000 Americans their triumphal march
from Bowling Green to Forty-second-st. II there
was any anarchistic sentiment among the vast
numbers that thronged 70 thorouphfa"es on
Saturday IT was cowcd and silent. 1t was sup
pressed and overwhelmed by the invncible spirit
Of loyalty and patriotism.
