London, Sept. 17. The Times tints contrasts tl o
political canvnss In (ircat Ilritain with that In trio
United States. In both cases tin electors are now
ones. Horo In England there aro many contents,
dl tiering In men and principles, and the result is,'a
eo ti fused hubbub, in which no one sound Is heard
above tho rest. IMio incidents thus 1'ar have been
peaceful, and even negative, but the eight weeks
remaining before, the elections may warm the con
test wlileh is now so quiet. '
The Times dwells on the violent nnitnatton of tho
rreMdentlal fight in the United States, and calls
an American general election an American cari
val. Tho American people may bo serious ami In
terested, but they allow tho moxt eccentric and
grotesque characters to represent tho whole poople,
which does them some injustice, but less harm thin
Is commonly thought. '

the vessel in question would be delivered to the
city long before the occasion for its services would
arise. It was being built, said Mr. Bumm, In such
a manner and with such machinery that every requirement-
expected from it would certainly be

Council men during the present term; but that in
the case of Mr. Evans, if ho retains the other of
fice he will be ineligible to re-election to Councils;
and in the case of Mr, Barnes, his appointment as
Deputy Sheriff Is not an otlico rocognizod bylaw,

Fellow-citizens: The enthusiasm of our nartv
everywhere reminds me of trie manner of Gene
ral Grant's nomination. 1 had the honor to be
a delegate to the Chicago Convention at the
time ot his unanimous nomination, when every
heart, hand, and tongue of that great throutr,
numbering thousands, responded with such
cheets that I never heard betore. I can a 1 most
fancy that the monster meeting at the League
on Tuesday might be a rehearsal of the same
scene. But, my friends, that will be nothing
compared to the great event of his almost
unanimous election in November, when such an
uprising of the people will take place that never
will be lorgotten. Tell me that republics are
ungrateful. No, never! The great hero lives in
the hearts of bis countrymen. They love hiui tor
his noble nature; his hia senso of
honor, and, above all, tor his de
votion to his country. They conldo in
bis honesty, Lis integrity oi purpose,
and lite sterling worth. No clique cau control
him; no interest serve him lrom the path of
right. He will be the President of the people.
They all know it. That is ihe reason why
thousands ot true Democrats are Hocking to
our standard. They know there will be no
proscription, but protection to all interests and
all people, without distinction of creed or birth.
My lrieiids, jour kind partiality for me is
gratefully acknowledged. How could it bo
otherwise? You have honored mi every way.
You have made me your standard-bearer in
this great battle for out country and Uuion. I
have accepted In good faith, aud will strive to
do my duty. You who ki ow me best bi l.eve
that I have independence of cnaructer suffi
cient to do what is right. I have lived among
jou all my life, and know you well. 1 cau se
in jour midst my boyhood's mends, aud my com
panions now, and the hurpiest hour ot my life
could be spent lu serving jou. Your interest in
the Navy Yard and other pub'ic posttious ha
becn entirely overlooked. There has been a
steady, selfish purpose in almost every act.
Little men have controlled public places for
local party purposes, and almost ruined the
character of our naval station. Tbey have
aerified the interest of our noble workmgmen
and nechauics by such a course. We should
now have thousands of men at woTk instead of
being out of employment. I can atsure you
with all safety, aud I If now what I am talking
about, that under Grant's administration, we
will build the yard at League Island, and put
ten thousand men to work for ten years to come.
I will guard your interests and take care ot my
triends. I tell you so, and you all know I do
what I say. The speaker was loudly cheered,
and the meeting adjourned.

which is apt to be overlooked and swallowed

officials. Our Democratic papers aud Copper

your ward, particularly, efforts are being made
to defeat lor Select Council raj friend, Biuuuel
W. Cattell. Yours is a semi-rural ward, and, as

Cattell, an ordinance u pusscd calling to
