A Ifrllllant Gathering In Front of tlie
Union League on Saturday Night.
Speeches of Kelley, Horn!, Matthews,
O'Neill, Etc. Ktc
The monster mass meeting of the loyal citi
zens In front of the Union Leai-'tie House last
Saturday night wns one that will long on re
membered tor its brilliant surroundings and lor
the thrilling eloquence that, coming lrom the
mouths of the illuslrioiis speakers, swayed the
vast multitude but with onu purpose, that of
loyalty to the great party that is now battling
lor freedom and equal richts. Ihc vast audi
ence could be numbered by thousands; aud the
intensity ol purpose that glittered iu the up
turned eyes and faces argued a fixity of pur
pose that meant to do or die in the approach
Sup crisis. Broad street was jaramod. and tho
iiii-pinting strains of music aud the brilliant (lis
piny of fireworks did much to icuder it a sceuc
that will be remembered for years to come.
The League House itself was most splendidly
Illuminated with the names of our principal
Generals In jets of flame. At 8 o'clock, amidst
intense enthusiasm, the meeting was. opened,
and John Price Wetherill, E-q., called the meet
ing to order, aud moved that Colonel John W.
Forney be selected as the chairman of the meet
ing. The motion was carried, and as Mr.
Wetherill retired, Hon. William D. Kellcy
Bteppcd forward and said:
Yon are cheering the wrong man; bat, for the
time belli ft, I am Colonel John W. Forney. I am
here to return yon that gentleman'! thanks for the
cordial manner in which you have received his
same as chairman of this meeting. It is a matter
of profound grief to him that within a few hours
be has found himself voiceless -not without
thought, not without sentiment, not without burn
ing eon viction that he desires to lay before yon,
but wanting the physical voice to give It utterance.
Since his return from Europe he has been able to
Deliver butone address, and that was to our colored
fellow citizens, In whose behalf, since he has seen
the oppressions of Europe, he feels profonnder
Interest than ever. (Great applause.) He begs me,
therefore, to thank you heartily, and to say that he
hopes to have the privilege of addressing you be
fore the election, and letting you know from his
own lips, as you learn from bis pen dally, the deep
interest be takes In the issues now pending, and
the breadth he attaches to those issues.
It will now be my pleasant office to introduce to
you a tearless southern Republican. (A. voice
'Is he loyal t") Is he loyal! Aye, gad he Is It
Is the Hon. Hugh L. Bond. (Cheering.) It Is Hugh
Ii. Itond, of Maryland, the successor of Henry
Winter Davis. (Renewed cheering )
Judge Bond has endeared himself to Philadel
phia for his fearless advocacy of the Union and
of the rights of manhood. When he showed him
self to the people there went op a mighty shout of
welcome. He spoke thus.
My fellow-citizens of the United States: It has
rot been with any intention of making a speech
that I have come here to-night, but rather to re
peat to you the prayer of the loyal men of the bor
der States. (Applause.) I come here to-night to
loos at you, the people of Pennsylvania, as we of
maryiana used to look at you during tne great
war we have just fought, when the ballot as an
agency for protecting the government was as
potent as the sword, and I want to see whether
there are any people here who are going to come to
our rescue In this great struggle in which we are
now engaged.
When in 1884 the national differences were being
fought out npon the Hue of the Potomac, at a time
when the armies of the United Stales were almost
disheartened, aud when you were running a man ,
named Woodward for Governor of this State; at
that time with what Interest and anxiety did we
watch your canvass, and how our hearts thrilled
with joy when Pennsylvania sent np that noble
response to Mr. Lincoln that the war should be car
lied out to the bitter end. 1 recollect with what
manifest earr ' ' ittiand real sincerity that great
man of our f ie,Heury Winter Davis (applause,)
enme up he.e to help you. And to-night, my
lriends, the same issue is presented touB. Though
the army is disbanded, though our troops have gone
home, the same issue lives, and cannot be repressed.
(Three cheers for Judge Bond were here proposed
My fellow-citizens, when our fathers fought out
the Revolutionary war, and came to form a na
tional government, the representatives from that
.m. r n.in nri itimn'a line from which 1
come agreed that the dominant institution of that
section should exist but temporarily. 1 hey looked
to its ultimate abolition, lor they expressly and
boldly declared that all men were born, free and
equal. That declaration was the living, breathing
,,f hir Declaration of Independence,
and not a meaningless, glittering generality, born
of the enthusiasm cf the hour. It formed the
irrouBdwork of that great paper, which was put
Vni-ui tr. ia m-nriri in matiu-janon of their revoiu
ion HnTMAr. in the course of events, it so hap
pened moBt unfortunately, it is true that my
people reached the conclusion that cotton was des.
lined to be king; and, instead of abolishing sla
ih, xhorinhnri And fostered its interests in
every possible way. That which should have
i.u..Hnr nnin ii hiicht and a enrse, finally
came to be considered Dy inem as
thus It was that an institution which at first was
only to be tolerated for a time became a dangerous
ulcer upon the body politic, and the failure of our
fathers to deal justly with a great wrong brought
their children lace to face with this rebellion. We
have put down that rebellion, and now the ques
tion with us is whether we are going to maintain
that all men who have been created free and equal
are going to remain so. (Great applause ) There
fore it was that in your Southern loyalist Con
vention, which met here in 1HG0, the declaration
was made that we must come back to negro suf-
The speaker further stated that in the wars of
the Revolution and 1812 we had called upon the
colored man, and he had given bis services in onr
behalt. In 1861 they were again called npon, and
again they flocked to our standard. But now they
naked, not without reason, "What have we gained
by the warl Are we not just as much oppressed
to-day as we were before I Are not our houses in
vaded and our children taken away I Have we any
of the privileges of American citizenshlpl" He
argued that It the people of Pennsylvania and the
north did not want to be compelled to Keep a
standing army in the south their only resource
was to give the colored people ot that section the
means of self-protection; In other words, that the
only remedy lor the wasting condition of things
was to confer the ballot upou them. The objection
of the Democrats was taut the negro would be
made the equal of a white mun. Thespeuker said
that if it did not make the loyal blaok man the
equal of a rebel he did not waut him to have the
Referring to the threatened intervention of the
militia ol Maryland in the ditlicultles between
Congress and the President, the speaker said that
the luth of April mipht be re-euueted but for one
tbiug, which was, that since the rebels have boeu
arming the blacks have not been Idle, andifthe lor
mer intended to go to Washington, so would the
latter. ISor did the loyal element of Maryland pro
ptite to wait, as in leiil, until the loyal north cjime

They object to everv measure nronoted by Con-

Judge Kelley now called for three cheers for the
gallant Judge Bond. The people gave them in
triple measure, while another tulvo of biugola
lights traversed the broad ether. Judge Kelley be

Cheers ftr Kelley )
We have here to-night gentlemen from one-half
tbe States of the Union, and we propooe mat you
shall nenr some of them. It is now my privilege
to Introduce to you my old friend and co-lnborer
In the Thtrty-teventb Congie, the Hon. A. G.
Riddle, of the District of Columbia.
Mr. Riddle was welcomed with three cheers.
He announced that be came from the District of
Columbia, In which tbe White House was located,
wherein Andrew Johnson was contained, and from
Whence nt present emanated an odor which the peo
ple did not at all like. He was not despondent, for
be was firmly convinced that th great underlying
forces row at work would be suflicient to carry the
country safely through Its present transition state,
and would not permit tbe loyal element of the na
tion to fit still or slumber.
The speaker entered into nn able and exhaustive
argument of the reconstruction policy of the go
vernment. He remarked that of nil the attentions
about which ingenious sophists had troubled them
selves, the most useless, in his judgment, was as
to whether the ten crushed and ruined Bouthern
States were in or out of the Union.- Practically it
made no difference, for tbe State governments, so
far as the United States and tho loyal people were
concerned, had ceased to exist. Ho far as the loyal
people of those States were concerned, they were
remitted to the original right of self-government,
and tbe government of the United States repre
senting a sovereignly for the time being would
maintain the public pence among them.
xii tonciunon, iur. Riddle congratulated bis
bearers upon the frustration of the President's de
signs In the reconstruction measures, and reas
serted bis convlc'ion that Johnson wgtiUl be re
moved from tha Executive chair, as an obstruction
to the execution of the laws.
Be referred to the negro suffrace movement In
the District of Columbia, and declared that the po
litical knowledge and general capacity of the Afrl
can race had been sadly and terribly underestima

pened In Washington and Tennessee would hap

Col. R. Stockett Matthews, of Baltimore,
was
next Introduced, and lustily applauded.
He said America was a free borne and strong na
tion, and one which provided the beneficence of
free schools, shed Its laws around the llresides of
the humblest, and crowned lubor with prosperity.
In all characteristic It vu a nation of viaor. and
promised greater national development than
any outer, lor none wuu so compel" w odu-
bo many woras oi nope to guuernuuin vu wmo
than was America. Great as It was, as res
plendent 8b it was in history, as rapid as its
uuvnuces were in civiuzauuu, it uuuiu uu, auuiu
to give np its political attairs to men wuo nave
no sjmpathy with mankind. During six long
jeaisthe Democratic party had misled, cheated,
and detrauded tbe people who clung to It, and to
strip this rebel Democracy of Its Japan-glosses,
varnish and sophistry, would be to show two
questions tor the consideration of tbe men of the
nation. The first one would bo, "Should loyal men
be ruled by truitors and their aiders and abettors I"
and the second would be "Shall the public debt
created for the maintenance of the government be
repudiated simply becanse the rank and file of the
Democratic party never Invested one rent in a go
vernment bond, and don't eare whether they are
repudiated or notl" Shall the rebels rulel No,
never as long as the lust nursling on its mother's
breast lives, nor so long as the hearts ot loyel men
pulsate. The daring, true, and sublime sacrifices
already made would be followed by others equally
as grand before treason shall become a virtue and
loyalty a scandal.
In referring to the Democratic party, he meant
as a part ol it Andrew Johnson and Jefferson
Davis. It Is said birds of a feather llock together,
but in this case they don't flock, as one cannot
leave the cool springs of Canada at present; but he
will probably be about when Mr. JoDnson takes
possession, or as Mr. Seward blandly, subtly and
sneakingly says, "He might be Dictator." Lse
and Rousseau mignt D inciuuea iu tuis umo.
era tic party, bnt, perhaps, it would be as well to
take Rousseau aud Steadman to pair off with Lee,
and that was not doing the latter any high compli
ment. Then there was tbe bully, blustering Ro
bert Toombs, and he knew of no better Democrat
to pit against him than Wm. B. Reed.
The reorjle of this nation never would nor could
forget the systematic process of starvation prac
tised on our Eoidlers with a malignity unprece
dented. It was not npon rebels that this sclentiuo
torture was practised, bat upon men we trusted,
lived with and loved. All remembered how our
men went forth, and how they came back to us.
They sturted out capable of enduring all the hard
ships incident to the life of a soldior, and they
came cacu as spectres.
Then the UBBassination or union men must not
be forgotten tbe shooting down of men In their
tracks simply becanse they were loyal to the best
government that ever existed on tbe earth. The
same necessity existed now for action as when
troops were called to the Held, the only difference
being tbut our soldiers were now citizens. Those
rebels proclaimed they would carry the blaok flag,
which meant they would shoot down every man
who wore the blue. They made tbe people shud
der by telling them of the atrocities that the Union
men would commit If they were victorious, and
thereby enkindled a bitter hatred, which kept up
the fires fast dying out In the hearts of their sol
diers. These rebels not onlf told the people, but
men living in the city of Philadelphia who olaim
to be learned, aristocratic, well bred aud culti
vated, bad tbe same lies in their mouth?, tbe same
malice in their souls, aud bated us as bad as the
rebels did. The only difference btween these
southern and northern rebels was that tbe former
bad the courage to tuke up arms and ilht, and the
latter had the cowardice to take np lying. Once
exhaust these people of their facilities tor lying
and ihey are bankrupt, and they will have to ap
peal to the law for a clean sheet to start business
again. It Ib Idle to talk of Ibis rebel Democracy
having auy principles, as all they desired was
power, plunder and the spoils of office, such was
ihelr mendacity and iniquity.
More than one-half of tbe cost of the war and the
losses on the battle-field were occasioned by the
action of these reLul D;mociats for five years, bj.
cause of their opposition to the war. Without the
left wing in the north, the richt wing of the rebels
in tbe south would have bsen beaten in two years.
They wete not entitled to the treatment extended
to great political organizations, for they bad never
attempted to put a good law on the statute books.
It would not do for them to say they were In the
minority, for the great loyal party woul 1 cheer,
tully have adopied any wise law, no matter lrom
whence itemauated. Their mottoes were: i-There
ought not to have been a war;" "The government
of the United States has no rights thai ought to be
retnected;" "The rebels were In the rigbt, and
ought to have been given tneir ngnts;" "i ne Da- J
mocratlo party cannot get along without the dis
trihiition of offices and the lull share of the plun. '
der. and they should be given to them;" "Tbe go.
'vernmeutof the United Slates was made ior the
Democratic pnrty, and the Democratlo parly tor
the government."
During six years past the loyal men of the south
have loosed to Pennsylvania about the time tbe
leaves fell, and they found the Democratic party

Immense audience.
J udge Kelley then introduced Senator A. G. Oat
t ll.ol New Jersey, who said:

which a victory would bring. Congress asks
for nn expression of confidence In them, and

J n ge Jvlley now stiiil, in resaonr.e !o a renewod
cell lor him, thit he ha-i jus', returned to tha city
after having spent a lew days In the canvass in
Ohio and Several of tho more western Sta'os. He
bicnrhtgood news from Ohio, where, he said, no
one doub ed tbe success ot the K'publicaa p irty.
He had passed tnrongn nttsnnrg, tne Dome of the
candidate for the Supreme Bench. There thegreat
Sinte lair was going on, at which be hau met
mr.ny piomlnent gentlemen from ves'orn Peun
(jlvfiua. They had told bim that the fires of
loyni y ere Durning pure anu Dngut iu tne vuneys,
oii the hill Bide and mountain-tops of tbat part of
the commonwealth. They knew Mr. Williams
well as a judge on the bnch for years. In point
of learning, itqustry, legal ability, he Is equal to
our distinguished citizen who is the nominee of
tbe Democratic party. The speaker called upon
those present to remember tbat while Judge Shars
wood had deciaied that tbe legal-tender notes
were unconstitutional, and that Congress had no
right to pass such a law, Judge Williams had
held that the greenback represented a dollar In
tbe payment ot the debt of the United Stales.
The Democratic party now claim that both parties
should be represented on the bench, yet in 1U51
tbey did not bold to such a doctrine.
The Judge then Indulged In some highly com
plimentary remarks upou the character of Hon. M.
Russell Tbayer, the candidate for tbe justiceship
ot the Common Pleas. No man, said tue speaker,
enjoys a higher character for professional honor,
or more untiring devotion to his client than Mr.
Thayer. He then alluded to tbe Democratic can
didate for City Treasurer, Mr. Joseph N. Piersol,
who bad written to tbe New England Senators
urging them to vote against the League Island bill,
as that site was too unhealthy to permit any per
son living on it. The Judge charged that the de
lay in getting the-bill passed was owing to tbe
strenuous exertions of this man.
Hon. Charles O'Neill, Judge Pitkin, of Louisi
ana, and other gentlemen, successively and most
acceptably addressed the assemblage, and at a
very late hour, with an exhibition of standing
pieces of pyrotechnics in patriotic designs, the
dense multitude, with cheers for the Union cause
and the Union ticket, separated for their homes.
Republican Mass Meeting in Germantown.
The Republicans of Germantown were out in
considerable force on Saturday evening, at the
Town Hall, to listen to addresses by Governor
deary, W. Kutsell Thayer, Esq., aud others.
The meeting was organized by tbe selection of
William G. Spencer, Esq., as Chairman.
Governor Geary was received with much ap
plause, and Eaiu tbat when approaching tbe
beautiful village of Germantown his mind waa
tilled with recollections of the limes long gone
past, and of him who once trod tbat historic,
clastic Ground of him who wns "first in war,
biBt in peace, and first in the hearts of his
countrymen."
Tbe speaker felt assured that he and his heroic
coniiadts among us at this time would be with
us; that be would he with that i arty that wns for
the Union Jcr wticb he had perinea his me. a
crisis is approaching, and it requires men to
meet it. Now is not the time to criticize candi
dates. We must not inquire which man is the
best, but should sacrifice our personal ieelings,
and vote the whole ticket, and nothing but tho
ticket. , . i
He referred to the fact that every vote cast
Against any candidate of the Republican party
was a vote for Andrew Johnson, a man who
would be king, and who intended, if the ap
proaching elections iu Pennsylvania and New
York went Democratic, to consider it as an in
dotsement of his infamous polioy, acd that then
he would place his toot in the middle of tho
Constitution, unfurl the old flag over his heal,
and declare himself tbe Government, and all
who oppose him Congress and nil traitors
He however, comlnued to speak in his usual
linricEslvc manucr lor an hour and twenty min
utes. When he ceased, round alter round of
cheers were given lor Governor Geary, M. Bus
sell Thayer, and the whole ticket.
Breaker Hall, of the State Senate, followed.
In the course of hia remarks he glanced at tho
whole ticket, but enjoined especially upon tho
people of Philadelphia to defeat Mr. Peter Lyle.

with i.mono'cd muskets, who swore tbat they
would bill any Donovan deb pates that should
attempt to enter, aim thus weie enabled to nomi
nato Mr. Nagle. It is alt o averted thatdo-pe-ratc
characters were imported from New York
to HfsiFt in this forcible ami fraudulent nomina
tion cf Mr. Nuele. Alter tbe nomination of Mr.
Naple in this biph-handed manner, the friends
ol Donovan assembled and r.otniuated him.
They adopted the lollowinsr preamble mid reso
lution, in which the chnrac:crof the Nagle Con
vention is vividly porirayed:
W linras, Tim 'Democratic party and Its nrlnoip'es
are coi vul wit h tho tioverninent, hui Its uhhkis are
purnn oni't to imllvlduul advancement, him! It i tviili

Ihej dnred to dviicme tli c'nlmsol ('pptaln Dono
vru. lie lies pr vtA hlmselr, by his constant advo
cacy of I'cniotritt'c ir!nt;lihi, a representative mun,
wlit in li e people love and revere lor his determined
op ot-ltion lo all monopolies Injurious lo the masses,
and as en inenlly fitted fort lie position;
sliiit.whi rta.', it wm evident that Captain Ponovan,
being ihe choice of Ihe Democracy ot this Senatorial
1) sirii t, his enemies suw the ueiessily of pei verting
the well-known wishes of the Democratic party.
Therefore
Jimtrill, That wo, as the represent' Ives or the
Diniocrallc party of the 'lhird senatorial District,
elected In accordance with ltd usages, hereby call
upon the livuiiracy in its i-Uril; to stistalu the legal
nominee of the party, C'aptaiu Donovan, and as a
Convention do hereby pledge ourselves to dovote
our energies to his eleciiou, and repudiate all dis
orgnnl.ers. This is a pretty picture of a Democratic Con
vention, paiuted by Democrats. Tbe beauty of
"bullies," the "bludgeoD and the knife," aud
the "tbrcatcninp of men's lives," is equalled only
by the innocent eloquence of the appeal to ''the
Democracy in its purity I" In thin connection,
"puiitj" is decidedly good. To wbat extent "the
people love and revere" Captain Donovan "for
bis opposition to all monopolies iniurious to the
masses." we are cot prepared to say: but it would
seem, if we may judge from the quarrel under
consideration, tbat there are at leat-t a few De
mocrats in tbe Third District whoss love and
reverence for the Captain are neither very fer
vent tor very profound.
To settle the Question as to whether Donovan
or Naple was legitimately nominated, an appeal
was laken to the Democratic city executive
Committee, which decided in lavor of Naple, re
eardleesof Donovan's argument of bludereons,
kDives, and bullies. "Bully for Naple!" seems
to have beeu the verdict ot tbe Committee.
In obedience to this decision, Donovan is pre
turned to be out ot the field ; but his friends are
us determined ns ever tbat JNacle Shall DC oe
leated. Thev are fiphlinsr him In an organized
manner, like soldiers. They have held secret
meptincs iu nearly all the precincts of the Dis
trict to drill and fit themselves for etlicient
ac tion at the polls, and they vow vengeance
apainst Naple, avowing their preference for
Won ham. Thev eav that "Democracy in its
purity" would sutler more in the triumph of
Nagle'a wrorg-doing than In tbe election or a
Republican, and, while vindicating the purity
of their doctrine, thev desire to administer a fit
ting rebuke to Mr N agio's more prominent
backers, anions: whom may be mentioned
Alderman McMullen, Samuel Josephs, William
V. McOrnth, Samuel J. Kanann, ana otneTS.
The. iriends ol Donovan include a large nropor
tion of our Irish fellow-citizens, who feci sorely
aet-rieved, not only because ot their Senatorial
Cl utirjman ueieai, out ucuniire tuc wniocri!.
wuoiu iney nave eerveu so lung auu bo tuttu
fullv. have not deipned to place a single sou o
Frin upon their city and couuty ticket. They
are "exceeding wroth," arc! Mr. Naple is liktdy
to find tbe Jordan of tbe Third District "a bard
road to travel." His party's sins were enough
Tor mm to carry, ana tno cnances are rnai tne
addition of his own and his fiieuds' violent
action in the Convention will make his load
gieaterthan he can cany, and win. His com
petitor, Mr. Bonharu, is a popular man, repre
senting the popular party, and, havingno quarrel
on his htindsfwill very probably De able to
ovcicume the Democratiu majority iu that
LiMiict.
Asioc from political preference, it must be
conceded that the election of Mr. Nticle, who
has been thrust beiore tbe people of the district
iu tbe disreputable and violent manner de
scribed, would be a reproach, to the community.
A meeting of roughs and rutlians, many ot
whom were self-constituted delegates, and some
ot whom were not residents of the district,
aimed with guns, pistols, knives, and bludgeons,
and acting in utter dit-reeard and defiance of
law, ought not to be permitted to choose a State
Senator for the people of Philadelphia, and it is
believed that the voters of the Third Senatorial
District will so decide.
An Important Question. A question in
volving the constitutionality of the Act of As
sembly, passed Ja6t year, in regard to the pay
ment of a State and County tax, will be argued
this week before J udge Drcwstor. On Saturday
Mr. I. Newton Brown made application for a
tule on Mr. Richard Peltz, Keceiver ot Taxes,
to show cause why a mandamus should not
ibbue against him and his sub-receivers to pre
veLt them from demanding the poll tax of fifty
cents, the Constitution requiring that the assess
ment shall be a State or County tax of twenty
five ccDts, to bo paid once in two years, and not
once in fourteen months, as the Receivers now
require. The rule was granted by Judge Brew
ster.
Flag Raising. On Saturday evening the
Republican citizens of the Second Precinct of

btaiers of the party.

organizing a cavalry squadion, to be composed
