BOYS BLUE!
Banquet at the Union League.
The Demonstration Last Night
Tc'crciny afternoon, Immediately after thj
proreoslon, a lnre number ot distliwitshc 1
ollicfrs of tlie uriny and pioraiiiont citizens rc
fHiied to the Union Letmue Home, wbero a
line banqnr-t whs in readiness. Mayor Mo
Michael railed the assembly to order, and in
trodaced (Jenerul BurnsMo, wtio made a capital
tp r eta. Governor Uearj alsi made a speech, In
which he pledged Penusjlvaula for 20,001) ina
Jor'ty for General Grant.
. Hon. Henry Wilson said this had been to him
a day of mius led emotions. He came here to
pee the brave ollicers who lei our armies lu the
late war, and the brave soldiers who won our
battles to pay the tribute of bis heart to the
men who saved our country, and are ready to
eaveitagniu. During the war it bad been his
doty to serve upon a committee upon the con
duct of the war, and he was njo'iced to meet so
Diany soldiers to-dv. Tbey hat had a Rreit
day in this city, and it was always a great day
in ruiladt Ipbia when the Union soldier passed
through it.
During the war, when they were en route for
the field, or wlienlhty returned, worn and weary,
from their campaign?, and one of the most
touching sight that he had sejn to-day, and it
dade his heart gld and toe tetrs start to his
eyes, was the children of the soldiers and Bailors
who fell dining the war, and who had been
adopted and were now bMtijr educated at the
expense of the State, and he' wis'jed that every
fctaie In the Unl 'U would folio Uer splendid,
example. It had been suid that the caue la the
same to-day that It was when our armies were
fighting iu the field, Stephen A. Djuglas said,
a rhort time before he die 1, that there were
only two patties in the country, and those were
lojal men and traitors. There are no doubt,
some good men in the Democratic party, but
they are wrouely sorted, and what the Senator
wanUd the soldiers to do between this and
next November was to go to work, and sort
tbrm out.
Ue hoped that every loyal veteran would
mase it bU work to plead with these men, and
beg ot tbem not to vole any longer with a party
ot traitors, but go with the party that never yet
gave one traitor who fired upon the nag of his
country. W hen the Senator saw the fUgs borne
by the Boys as they marched past to day, he
thought it was something to tuanit G)d for that
we belonged to a party that never fired on the
fctars and Striped, and that never murdered a
Union man.
He had taken brave soldiers by the hand
to-day, some of whom be bad seen go forth into
the field iu the full vigor of manhood, but who
were now maimed and crippled, aud he thanked
Heaven that the party he belonged to was not
responsible tor this. And thou he thought of
ttaore other brave men who bad fallen, aud he
nought ot the many desola'ed homes, the weep
ing mother.0, and heart-broken wives and chil
dien. and these call upon us now to do our duty.
The Senator closed by sayincr that the lovers of
liberty all over the world were looking on with
interest, and without exception praying for the
election of Uraut and Colfax. Mr. Wilson was
most enthusiastically received, and oiten inter
mixed by applause. '
The New Yoik Glee Club sang very effecU
ively "The Swoid ef Bunker Hill" and "Poor
fc'eymopr," lue latter creating much merriment
and applause. Speeches were also made by
General Sickles, Governor Salomon, of Wt
consin, and Judge Kelleyr when the company
separated, , , n
Tlie Meeting.
Broad street never presented such a scene as
last eveuing. " Prom Market to Spruce there was
a dense crowd of men, women, and children,
and never was such enthusiasm displayed.
The meeting at the main siaod was organized
about eight o'clock, by the election of Colonel
John W. Forney to the chair.
Mr. Forney,
on taking tbecLair, said: Fellow-citizens The
soldiers ot the Union who have crushed the
Rebellion with arms, assemble here now to
declare lor peace. Having graduated in the
stern school of the war, they are determined
now to have the results of the peace they con
quered. Our armies have disbanded and re
turned to their homes, but by their presence
here to-day give renewed assurance of their
devotion to tlie Union. Haviug conquered the
Rebellion lor the first time with bullets, they
now propose to conquer it ayaia with, ballots.
(Applause.)
Xbeir order, intelligence, and patriotism have
created amazement among Loth, friends aud
ioes As they obeyed their General while under
him in arms, so they will also obey him. when
he is elected President of the United States.
(Applause.) Mr. Forney then introduced, iu a
lew complimentary remarks,
Governor Geary.
He was received with cheers, and said:
My Fellow-soldiers and Citizens: I feel my
self peculiarly happy to be able to address this
great assembly ou this occasion. I feel that this
is no common honor placed upon me in being
allowed to address you this evening, In this city
which gave birth to American liberty. (Ap
plause.) I feel, my friends, that this is a great
aud glorious occasion. I have travelled through
this State for the last few weeks, and I present
to you glad tidings, and say to you that Penn
sylvania was never aroused as she is at present.
Her people are In the qui vine to know whether
We arc to have peace or war. We have had
enough of war, and its fruits pervade every
house in the laud.
Only those who took no part in the last great
war are those who now want to plunge the
country into a civil war. That party was a
peace party when war was in the land, but now
is a war party when there is peace. (Applause.)
I thank God I belong to a party who never
murdered any of its defenders. There is not a
man in this great country that can show me a
Republican tbat has ever murdered one of its
soldiers. On this occasion 1 learlcsBly make
tne assertion, the Democratic party are respon
sible for this war, the debt, aud taxation. Wnat
is more, my fellow citizens, tbev are responsible
for the death of three hundred thousand of our
brave "Boys in Blue."
After rtiernuK. in a few words, to the candi
dales, I shall give way to the gentlemen who
are straneers here and wooui vou all desire to
hear. After AoDomattox the sol tlTS all desired
tbat Grant bhould be our President. Alter that
surrender -vou could hear iiotning from the
Democratic papers of the land but plaudits for
Grant aud their opinion of his fitness tor the
Presidency. Yes, my lriends. he has proved
himself not only a soldier but a statesman,
wbom we can trust and whom we will trust,
(Aonlaute.l We the whole people of the coun
try have chosen hiui, and all that lemaius now
are the sutlrages o a free arid gallant people to
be cast for him at the election in November.
We had a caudidate (educa cd at the same
school as Grant) four jeers ago, McOlellan,
whom these people thougbt that his graduation
at West Point fitted him to be President; but
how diiiVrent now. a hen it is another graduate!
Thev eav.' also, that he is no syldler. Well, let
nslook at Vicksourtr. Donelsou. and Chicka
mauen. (Anidause.) Go with him through all
the battles ot the campaigu, ending at Appo-
't)attoj Court House, and ftiug tuts calumny
Slack. (Applause.) It is scarcely necessary to
, go back to the history of his predecessor to
.contrail tne two. but let us look at sevinour in
contrast. You remember tbat on one 4th of
July th' te w3 a not In Novy York, lie could
ntitouell a riot. Is be a flttinar man to heal
the animosities and agitation in the country at
present T , .
Bevmour thlnk3 now he has got into a whirl
aud that whirl will take him in the Ides of
Knvomhpr tout of our slirhr. (Applause.) The
old Federal rartv M,e(1 ncn il opposed the
War or lh!2. The Whin nartv went down
lor opposing the war with Mexico, and so the
Democratic party will go down for opposing
our war for the Union. (Applause.) And
now, in conclusion, let me say, no matter where
you live, go up and vote for Grant, aud iu
VaUladv'piiU ;.r.:v.Ul'.,.r)y you, juu4 do tk.c
same, for here the contest is to be decided. My
lriends, I ak you to do your whole duty in the
coming campaign, and all will be well. (Ap
plause.) ClenrrM Daniel E. Sickles
wss then Introduced, and received with thun
ders of applause. He began:
Ladles and Gcutl' men of Philadelphia, aud
Comrades: Again It Is my pleasure to witness
another ovation in Philadelphia. Thousands
of the loldiers of the Union are here at your
invitation, to record with you a vow that no
effort, no sacrifice that a freeman can mak.
will be spared p achieve th election of Grant
to the Presidency. (Applause.) The soldiers
are here for no hostile purpose. They came to
save in peace and at the ballot-box what was
won in war on the field. They have met here a
cordial welcome from the people. They have
met here the same kindness and hospitality that
jou extended to them during the war.
Mo true soldier of the Union army can help
looking back with gratitude to the kindness
with which Philadelphia ever greeted the sol
dier. Yet Mr. Wallace, the Chairman of the
Democratic Committee, says that they have
come here to fraudulently vote. (Cries of
liar," "liar.") Why their whole past record
and history will prove that statement false.
Wby Is it, comrades, that you see everywhere
among the leaders not the masses of the
Democratic party such bitter and persistent
maliguity towards you? Is It because yonr
valor makes tbem blush with shame ? Is it be
cause tbey would rather welcome such men as
Forrest and Hampton than you? ("Tnat's P.")
And hear I bear witness to the peaceful bearing
of the '"Boys in Blue" under these repeated
attacks.
Never will they be made responsible for a
breach of the peace; but if the time should ever
unhappily come when they will be compelled to
aga'n shoulder their musket, they are ready
Bgain to put down Insurrection either North or
South. (Cheers.) It seems to me that the
Democratic party has lately received a rein
forcement. (Laughter.) There have been two
processions in Philadelphia to-day, a procession
almost countless in numbers of loyal veterans,
and a procession of Rebel veterans from Balti
more on their way to the Station Houbo.
(Laughter.) They have also got another rein
forcement from Europe. Formerly Seymour
tried bard to have McClellan elected to the Pre
sidency. Now that the war is ended success
fully, and the Democrats want its reinaueura
tlon, McClellan has been imported from Europe
to help to elect Seymour, that their designs may
be accomplished. Another reinforcement is also
to come soon for them, when Jeff. Davis takes
the stump for Seymour.
' It is not strange tbat the soldiers and sailors
of the republic should tally for Grant. It is
because the Rebels are striving to again esta
blish that government they vainly fought to
build. It is lor this reason that all our gallaut
boys are for Grant. (Applause.) It is for this
reason tbat Sherman, and Sheridan, and Farra
gut, and Kllpatrick are for Grant. Thewarof
Rebellion was an admonition tbat this Union
could not live balf free and half slave. We
laved it by making it all free. Now we are
BgHin admonished that it cannot live balf Rebel
and half loyal. To avoid, then, a second conflict,
we must elect men who will be safe custodians
of ourcountry. We have been told thatConeress
was radical, because it denounced the Rebel
governments tn the Rebel States; and now it is
again denounced as radical, because it would
reconstruct those States and bting them back
into the Union.
' The Democrats, so great Is their opposition,
would inaugurate another rebellion. They
would have a dictator a military dictator and
Frank Blair says tbat the President may become
a military dictator. With the success of that
principle our republic is lost. Take the Demo
cratic party in its inception in the time ot Jef
ferson, follow it through its history down to Its
decline and fall tn 1860, and you find that its
watchword has always been "Liberty, Equalitv,
and the Rights or Labor;" but the so-called
Democratic party of to-day Is nothing like that
ancieni uemocranc party, esucn men as .letter
son and Jackson would refuse to be enrolled In
the ranks of the Democrats to-day. There are
thousands of loyal and patriotic men who once
belonged lo tbat great party, but they are all
with us now, and are all for Grant.
Never can this Government descend Into the
hands of a disloyal party. A) well might the
Indians attempt to reclaim their lost hunting
grounds and drive back civilization, as for the
islojal Copperhead party to attempt to gain
poFscsslon of our Government. (Applause.)
xi.e cnairman men introduced
The Kw York Glee Clnb,
which pang a "Union hymn" and a harmonious
Jay about the fate of Seymour. The club was
loudly appluded.
Hon. James Harlan,
Senator from Iowa, was then introduced. He
saul:
i-riends and Fellow-citizens: I feel allttleout
of place in attempting to make an address, how
ever brief, under the present auspices. It seems
to me mat your time snouid be entirety taken
up Dy jour comrades in arms. But there may
be a lew things well to advert to, sug
gested by the eloquent speech to which you
have just listened. I know that I am addressing
a loyal assemblage, men who desire the oer-
petuatiou ot our liberties and the downfall o'
Rebels. Which would most subserve the grea
aims of eveiy patriotic citizen to vote in the
coming election lor Horatio Seymour aud
Francis P. Blair or to vote for Ulysses S. Grant
and fcchuj ler Colfax ? We should take a carel ul
survey ot the situation, and see what is best for
us to do. That party which is called the Con
servative party has swallowed up the old Demo
cratic party, and some tew Republicans. Tols
Conservative party is now heartily in supportDf
oejmour auu oiair.
The Democratic nartv had control of the
Government from 1853 to 1861. but afterwards
lost its prestige, aud the Government passed into
other hands. They split up among themselves,
and could no longer agree upon a national plat
iorm to present to the neoDle. Thev Dluneed
the country into war, ruined our finances, and
brought nifrery over the land. On the 4th of
March, 1861, the Government passed into the
nanus oi tbe Republican party, and though, per
haps.it bas made some mistakes, yet. I think,
all must acknowledge It has conducted the
Lation pretty well.
The Democrats said that we could not DUt
down the Rebellion; tbat we bad no authority
to coerce a State. Yet under the Republican
narty tbe war was conducted to a successful
issue, our financed were rendered firm, and oar
army ana navy maae oi sucn strength as to com
mand tbe respect of the civilized world. Would
tbe Government have been carried on more
successfully or creditably under Democratic
rule? Not Wby, had they had the control of
affairs, we now would not possess a Government,
At the prejeut time they are crying out aloud
against tbe reconstruction acts passed by Con
gress. Tbey declare them unconstitutional and
void. Tbey even said that the call of President
Lincoln lor voiunieers was unconstitutional
that the freeing of the slaves was uuconstltn
tioual; that tbe raibing or money lor tbe pay
ment of our soldiers was unconstitutional. Not
one act of the Government passed in support of
the war did they countenance or applaud.
Now tbev propose to accomplish a great revo
lution in matters of a finance. They want to
Issue thousands of millions of greenbacks iu
Hddiliou'.o tbe amount already in circulation.
Their policy does not recoguize the payment of
either the nriuclral or interest of the bonds,
Thev would iu ellcct repudiate. They want to
surpass tlie Republicans in other measures of
taxation. We deem It belter to tax tbe luxuries
and unuecessaries of life. Tbey would tax
evervtblue alike: tbey irould exempt nothing,
The Senator concluded by remarking thai the
Democrats d'.d not intend to undo the measures
o. the Bepublieans. to which they are opposed
by the peacetul means of repealing them if they
came Inlo power, but bv force of arms, by
buvng their President call on his Democratic
cohorts to do the work.
General Ntevena, of New Hampshire,
was then introduced as a "soldier statesman."
IIh said:
I am happy, my fellow-citizens, to meet you
this evening on the broud platform of Republi
canism, to speak lo the brave bovs who defended
and saved the nation. Although I come from
New Hampshire, I claim the right to speak here
lu Pennsylvania, ror tne Dones or New tianip
shire soldiefs mingle with the bones of Penn
We have fought together at Vlcksbarg and af
Richmond, aud our deeds ere to live together iu
history. The Republican party has attained a
place of honor and renown in the anBals of the
country, and its mission is now to perpetuat;
the principles of liberty and right It has so Ion ;
championed.
The General alluded then to the impeachment
trial, and said tbat he had hd the honor to
vote twice for that measure. We tried h ird to
get Johnson out of office, but failed. Somebody,
for wbese opinion I am not responsible, has
raid that tbe reason we couldn't get him out
was because he went in so tight. Tbe speaker
prrphejled the election of Grant and Colfax,
nd then referred to a stumping tour he had
made through tbe Lehigh Valley iu this State.
Tbe Republicans there, he said, are not as
numerous as he had seen in other places, but
their number is daily increasing, and
tbey are becoming alive la enthusiasm lor that
great soldier, Ulysses 8. Grant. (Applause.)
He then related several humorous anecdotes
bearing upon the Democratic attacks on General
Grant, and said that, in case another war
should ensue, the "Boys in Blue" would com
mence at the right, and begin tbe hanging
early in the day. The Democrats charge Grant
with drunkenness, but I stand here to hurl
back into their teeth tbe foul lie. He said that
the result of the Presidential election depended
on the Keystone State, aud adjured his hearers
to do their whole duty in the contest.
With an eloquent peroration, which was
loudly applauded, General Stevens concluded.
Ex-Governor Cnrftln, or Pennsylvania,
was then Introduced, and received with cheers
He becran by saying that he was most heartily
with his hearers on the issues involved in this
political canva s. He had been through the
western portion of this State, and though he did
not know what the Republican majority would
amount to, he never knew a time when so much
enthusiasm reigned throughout the entire State.
With Grant we cry "Let us have peace." It is
a question which aflecia the stability of the
Government.
The Democrats would del troy It; but shall we
allow tbem to accomplish their traitorous de
signs ? Shall we yield the Government into their
bands? No, never. Let us elect a President who
will teach these Copperheads that they must
obey tbe laws; and to this end let every mau in
my presence resolve to do his best in the good
work. As the war ot arms is over, let us now
boldly engage in the war of ideas, and let us
tight manful ly for the right ideas. Tbe ( overnor,
suffering from a severe hoarseness, with a few
additional remarks begged to be excused, and
retired amid great applause.
General Kllpatrick
was then introduced, and received with three
rousing cheers, and spoke as follows:
A party that cannot afford to be lust does not
deserve to live. Let us take into consideration
the Reconstruction acts. Let us see If we have
not been just. The States in the Rebellion bad
erected a consolidated despotism, which had for
lour years voted men ana money to upset our
country and fight against us.
jsow tnese were tne wntte men or tne aoutn.
New governments were to be formed there after
tbe non-success of their rebellion. And whom
were these governments to be made for for the
white men alone? Ko; all the men of every
nationality and color had a right there to be
looked out for in this new reconstruction, and
we did iU (Applause.) Well, we offered them
tbe Fourteenth amendment, and they rejected
it; but we have, notwithstanding this rejection,
made it the law of the land, and all races and
colors are protected in their rights of citizen-
sbip tbere to-day. (applause.).

principles for which we fought and bled. (Ap
plause. "We will.") And I will feel that all our
exertions will not have been in vain when our
cause is crowned with triumph in the coming
November. (Applause and cheers.)
THE OUTSIDE MEETINGS.
At the stand at Broad and Walnut streets
Bon. Isaac Hazlehurst presided. Speeches were
delivered by Governor 11a wley, of Connecticut,
Senator Thayer, of Nebraska, General Adam T.
rung, or .Baltimore, ana J. f . juanmog, usq., oi

Tbe meeting at the stand on Broad street.

General Carrlngton, of Washington; and Major
Pang bom, of New York. Hon. Isaac A. Suep-
para presided over tne meeting on uroad street,

gentlemen delivered eloquent and patriotic
addiesces.
THE 1 Alt APE.
As Senator Cattcll was concluding bis speech,
at the main stand, the torchlight procession
hove in eight, and as he finished the first com
panies reached the Leagne House. At this
point the street was illuminated by fireworks
provided by tbe League. Two stands for the
purpose had been provided, one at either end
ot tbe Club building, and as the line of the pro
cession approached, the signal for lighting tbe
monster rocaets ana oengoias was given, ana
the whole neighborhood was bathed in blue and
golden fire. Into this magical atmosphere,
accompanied by music heightened by cheers and
buzzas, penetrated tne pioneers, as eacn suc
cessive company filed past the League it cheered
lustily, and the great crowd tn the street, as
well as tbe numbers on the roof and balconies
of the Club house, were not slow to return the
greet inr.
me new xorx oeiegauoD was very strong,
and was greeted with delight by the assem
blage. A club from Trenton looked very well.
and met with approval. Camden also furnished
a numerous aud well-appointed corns. Del a
ware had all eyes upon her, and throve well
under tne inspection.
The front of the League House was Illuminated
in its usual handsome style for great political
occasions. Tbe names ot Lincoln, Graut, Far
ragut, and other heroes appeared in gas-jets
over the windows and balconies, and tbe noule
bonding was draped witn nags ana streamers.
From tbe street it presented a magnificent ap
pearance, calculated to impress the delegations
as llity marcnea Dy in me glare oi an us ngnis,
and under the magnetic sympathy of out'
stretched bands and friendly voices. And still on
and tn tbe line of torches came, Tuere seemed
to be no end ot tbem. Wnen the line reached
Walnut street it turned and countermarched up
Broad. This double line, with its various
bands of music Dertorming. if not in concord,
at least together made ud a scene of excitement
and confusion which critics iu this kind of
entertainment esteem essential to success. Not
only infautry appeared in the procession, but
cavalry ; and not only cavalry, but artillery. A
battery ot light pieees was dragged over the
route by long hoes of jolly ieliows, who ap
peared to einoy luegiug its weigh. The tars
were the recipients ot especial favors from the
Indies ami gentlemen on tbe Leapue balconies,
pcrnaps on account oi tneir numoers as com
nnrad to the rest of the procession.
Many of toe boys looked pretty well t'red
out, w bat with marching and incidentals, but
tbey held their ground well. Not a few
instances were noted of a desire to cheer Grant
and Colfax or the Union League, and a man Host
inability tj do so arUiue from hoarseness.
IIh re were gaps in tbe line, too, as though tbe
smrit was willing tnougb tbe Husti was wean.
aud there were enough genuine spirit and vim
tn make ud for all derlcleueies.
The "Iuvincibleb" were the great success of
the evening in a spectacular point or view.
Tbey marched 1500 strong, eight abreast, and
cofiqueied tbe hearts of the gentle sex by their
stem appearaice and martial bearing. Every
second luvincible carried a bouquet, but that
did not militate against his very warlike appear
Tim other city clubs were also out in
orent B'ruifitb. It was quite late (past twelve
o'clock) when the last of the great procession

Cowardiy Attacks. Captain Albert Grant,
commander of tbe "Boys in Bluc"ot the District

ruffianly assault, resulting in bis being severely
wounded. W bile the column was passing by

dates. Oue ot the mounted officers beard
I be remark, "Take the man with the spec
tacles," referring to Major Seip, of Washington.
Immediately a brick was thrown, which missed
Eeip and struck Grant, inflicting a very severe
wound. A number of tbe Invincibles rushed
to the sidewalk, but the assailants disappeared
in tbe house. No attack was made on it, how
ever, and the column moved on. The wounded
officer was taken from his horse, and after
several persons had refused to allow him to
enter their dwellings, he was taken to Dr.
Ashe's house. N. 80(3 Christian strett, two

Seip was holding the horses stones were thrown
at him, and he was obliged to dismount.
At Broad and Catharine streets a number of
Democrats made an assau.t on the Berry Club,
but were repulsed in to handsome a manner
they will probably quit such business for a short
time.
At Third and South streets a few Democrats
were taught tbe penalty ot bad manners in ap
plying opprobrious epithets to respectable men.
