There is a strong feeling in the Convention in

From Cleveland.
Ct.BVM.Awn, Ohio. Oct. 8 The Republican mass
meeting held here to-day Is conceded on all hands
to have been the most imposing demonstration, in
numbers and enthusiasm, ever made In northern
Ohio. At least 100,000 pnoplo wero on tho streets,
and the procession was an hour and a half In passing
a given point, marching rapidly in close ordor.
The torchlight procesaion te-ulghi was two miles
long, marching lu close order.
Addresses were delivered by Senator Sherman,
Gov. Hayes, ex-Secretary Stanton, Gen. Garflold,
and others.
A letter of docllnatlon from Senator Fessendon
says: I sincerely regret my inability to be with
you. We are all lust now looking to Ohio with pe
culiar interest. One of her most prominent sons
claims to be the originator of the financial doctrine
which tho Democratic party has adopted In its
platform, and which I cannot but consider as at
war with the plainest principles of common hon
esty. He declared his opinion In Maine, and it
cannot bo misunderstood. It remains to be seon
what Ohio thinks of it. For the honor of that mag
nificent State, as well as the national credit, it is to
be hoped tho people's voice will bo equally loud
and emphatic. On a question of such vital and
Important a character to the welfare of this great
people, I think nothing but the highest ground can
be taken, consistently with national or party
honor.
The tone of tho Republican platform In this par
ticular is beyond all praise. The men who made It
scorned all compromise with repudiation as un
worthy the character and principles of that great
parly which had successfully conducted the nation
through tho perils of a mighty war. Anything
short of the payment of the national debt in
f old, in good 1 Ml th, according to the understand
ng of those who contracted it, is the essence
of repudiation. The errors which would flow from
such an attempt are evon greater than the conflict
ot arms. A people which has Justly forfeited the
respect of mankind has nothing left worthy of
preservation.
I trust, therefore, that In Ohio, as In Maine, the
campaign will bo conducted throughout upon the
firinciple of openly denouncing all such demoralisi
ng doctrines, whatever shape they may assume.
In civil as in military life, courago in the right di
rection, faith in tho good cause, with confidence in
the people, will prevail as well against the acts of
deniagogins as against rebels inarms. I will not
touch upon the other great issue Involved in this
campaign. No one can fail to understand it and to
leel its importance We all know upon it depends
the question of quiet or confusion, order or disorder,
peace or war. With such a question awaiting the
popular decision, it is plainly the duty of every man
to spare no effort to save the country from the cala
mity of a Democratic triumph. Happily, if we do
our whole duty success is sure. That Onto will be
able to claim an enviable share In the coming vic
tory, 1 have the most abiding confidence.
Governor Fenton,of New York, writes, declining
to attend on the ground of pressing publio duties,
and says: "Looking without solicitude but with
profound interest at the result of the preliminary
battle you are waging, the Republicans of New
York are well persuaded that our States will stand
side by side in the struggle In November."
Letters of declination were read from Genoral
Sickles, General Thomas, Schuyler Colfax, H. J.
Raymond, Governor Curtin, Senutor Conkling and
others.
Mr. Stanton said: Fellow citizens, ill-health re
strains me on this great occasion from doing more
than to point out a tew reasons why we should
rally around the flag held this day by Grant and
Colfax. Wlille the flag placed in the hands of the
nominees of the Newl ork Convention bv the rebel
generals Forrest, Wade Hampton and Preston is
the banner of disunion and rebellion, the banner of
Grant and Colfax is the Hag and emblem of our
national existence. By national existence I moan
the organization whice makes laws, enforces their
execution, administers Justice and protects its citi
zens abroad and at home, in every clime and land.
Every Irishman knows what national existence
means. When he reads the burning words of
Kmmet, he bears in mind how the national exist
ence of the Emerald Isle has been smitten down by
the power of the British government. The Ger
man emigrant knows what is meant by national
existence. When Grant was smiting down the
rebellion, the German who went home to visit his
fatherland was liable to be seized and pressed into
perpetual military service.
The native citizen knows what is meant by na
tional existence and citizenship, when he hears the
names of Washington and Madison, who laid the
foundation of the government which God has so
long blessed and upheld. This, then, is the na
tional existence of which the banner held by Grant
is the emblem. Once more I say, rally around that
banner and keep it raised.
Is there a mau among you coming from his native
land, Germany, who desires to goTack to visit his
kinsfolk, to tell of the great country of which he
lias become a portion? Let him bear in mind his
safety he owes to Grant that it is an honor to him
self to support Grant, tho General who held tho
banner of the nation Illustrious before all others
and while kinsfolk gather around, and he tells of
the mlglity anu wonueriui inings uone in mis land.
how will ne De amo to wuisper aoove uis Dream lest
his neighbors ask Mm (ltd you vote tor Grant?
11 ave you done your duty?
Does the Irishman, in case of a foreign war, wish
to be seized by a British orllcer and pressed iuto the
army of Great Britain? then let him not desert
that flag which is the emblem of national existence,
but uphold the banner, so that it shall be, wherever
it is visible, a snieiu anu salvation to me citizen in
everv nation anu clime.
Mr. Stanton quoted lrom President Lincoln's ad
dress at Gettysburg, to the eitect that we are en-i.-iL'cd
in a great civil war to see if the nation de
nied the proposition that all men are free and
enual: and said, referring to the dead of that bat
tle-field. I ask vou in the name of Abraham Lin
coln, here to-day, if they died in vain? (Voices
"No, no.") Shan we not dedicate ourselves to tue
work thev left unfinished? Let us here every one,
with unlit ted hands, declare before God that the
gift of this great heritage, consecrated in the blood
of our soldiers, shall never perish from the earth.
Here the speaker raised his hands and said, "I
swear" (which was repeated by the audienco after
him), and he continued, "lot your hearts speak as
though you stood by Abraham Lincoln, and declare
that there is no one among you but will labor to
complete the task or the illustrious acau by estab
lishing the foundations of tho government.'
Mr. Stanton is ill and worn with travel, but spoke
with great force and clearness. He finds himself
compelled to decline further engagements during
the campaign, and returns home from here.
General Garfield's address was devoted to show
ing that the attempts of rcbeldom were to damage
the national credit, and accomplish the victory
they failed to obtain In the war by destroying the
national honor.
From North Carolina.
GnmrNsnoRO, Oct. 8 John Qulncy Adams, of
Massachusetts, passed here yesterday, en roufe
south. He was met at the depot by citizens of both
races, and addressed the people. Ho came south to
say only one word to the peoplo, and that word was
kindness, conciliation and fraternal affection. He
should vote for Seymour and Blair. He came In the
spirit of fraternal kindness to all classes of citizens.
The color of a man's skin mado no difference to
htm. It was charged in the north that the Demo
cratic party In the south would re-enslave the ne
gro. He branded It as an atrocious lie. If the people
of the north could see the wasted and neglected
fields of the south as he had done, all our troubles
would be at an end. He was ploased to know that
there were amicable relations between the blacks
and whites, and that there was no animosity among
the whites.
From New Orleans.
New Orleans, Oct. 8 The bill which passed
the Senate, amending the registration law, and for
bidding the registers from going bevnnd the law,
was killed yesterday in the House. Writs of man
damns are issued daily by the courts in cases where
the registers refuse to register persons naturalised
in the third to the seventh district courts, inclusive,
since July 8, 1868. The mandamuses in all such
cases are made peremptory. There are several
thousand such naturalizations in this city, and the
registrars refuse to be govornod by the decisions of
tue courts anu retuse registration to earn applicant,
necessitating a soparate writ in eacn case.

very important consideration In determining the

It Is well known that a long bend always commands
a much higher price than a short one. It Is safe to
assume that during tbe next thirty years, the rate ot

done In Europe, and we have a right to expect that

high a premium as those of this Government, which
