A meeting . of the men, women anti °bil
l. '
ChtliCreardigg ' a
44.tii the vicinity Of rte{
,_,
Point, was . held at the "First Ward Bat
tery l " , ren g street, lastr. evening. The
nseetiniwillisillediri - ratify'the 'nomina
tions made at the New York Convention,
„and for the , purpose : of giving Mr. A.N.,
Fester an Opportunity to "speak his piece"_:
again. The hour fixed jar organizing the
meeting Nyas__-.lfalf.. veifen:sifitibOk, • at
which time our; reporter repaired to the
"Battery," the windowa of which were
`brilliantly '.illuminated' ilhiminated with 'three tal l ow'
"dips," ' and a sort of verandah erected
in front as a platform for the speakers.
Immediately,- on his arrival he received
several invitations to "trate," all of whlCh
he, respectfully declined. He was then
accosted by an • elderly gentleman with
a "subscription, paper" and requested to
"give a quarther to pay for puttin up the
stand for t e spakers. " not having any
Silver, and • ery little paper money, he was
dforded to e this modest -request also.
(6
Mr.Voster ved on the ground early and
immediately took his . position in the second
story of the battery in order to avoid the
many modest invitations to "trate." The
crowd, which numbered between two and
three hundred, was composed principally of
women and children, - the' latter being,
largely in the majority.
After waiting almost an hour for the
gentleman whOse name had been put
down as Chairman, and - for a band of
music, which we learn refused to "put in an
appearance until -they were paid," -the
meeting was organized without either of
ficers or \ music,` and "proceeded to biasiness.
As Mr. Foster's "piece" was new, and of
a character calculated' to interest the' intel-
ligent children of that locality he was called
upon thedirst, for fear some of the smaller
ones might get sleepy and restless, and
consequently loge the rich treat the old
gentleman had labored so faithfully to pre
pare for them. He was introduced
by the proprietor of 'the "battery" in
person as there were no officers,_ and
proceeded to spout. He- has made
a . few ' plight altera 'thaw-in his piefte
since he declaimed it at the "Battery" in
the, old Third ward a few evenings since.
He omitted his "apology to the Iriabmen."
and inserted in lieu thereof e,predietion
that if Seymour and .. Blair were defeated
that the country would go to ---- 'no mat
ter where, for we presume he intent that
portion known as Democracy. After he
had got about half way through his "piece,"
a noise was heard in the distance, which
created so much confusion among the juve
niles that - the speaker - was compelled - to
take his seat and Walt until the noise sub
sided. The cause of the confusion proved
to be four men with brass horns and 0110
with a big drum coming to ratify for the
sum of two dollars and a half a piece, paid
in advance, and beer included. After tins
apology for a band had ceased their noise
and thepropriotor of the battery, aided by
several females, had succeeded in restoring
quiet,among the children, Mr. Foster pr
ceede o
to harangue the children with his
financial theory,
which WWI as clear as
mud, especially to the audience he was ad
dressing last night. The children could
not appreciate it, however, and refused to
oin in the attemptsthat were made by the
"battery man" to applaud the speaker.
Finding that the crowd was growing
"smaller by degrees and beautifully less,'
he left the financial / question In/finished
and took up the tnigger," of whom,
it appears, he has a holy horror. In
this he was more successful, and by a tre
mendous effort succeeded in raising a sick
ly cheer. He then attempted to give a
biography of the different candidates, and
in speaking of Blair said lie was an aboli
tionist twenty years, ago, and had never
en anything else. This proved to be a
bitter dose to the few men scattered among
the crowd of women and children, and sev
eral of.thern, were heard to exclaim, "I
don't belave it." Seeing the mistake ho
had made, the speaker subsided, and ,e he
retired the proprietor of the "battery" call
ed on.the children for to which they r sponded nobly.
hree cheers for Sey
mour,
i
The horns were then sounded, the drum
pounded and somebody 'grated" the crowd,
after which the "batteryman" led a boy
on the stage who madenzegular school boy
speech, which had &most disastrous effect
upon the meeting, as the women went
home taking the smaller children with I
them and the larger ones soon tired and
followed their mammas, leaving the speak-
er "alone in his glory." _
Base Bait Yesterday.
Notwithstanding the Intense heat the
lovers of our national game turneg: out to
the number of about live hundred yester
day afternoon at Union Park to witness the
second of the games between the Detroit
and Allegheny Base Bail Clubs. Great in
terest was rifanifested in the result, as both
parties went In confident of success and
resolved to" play bard for the victory. At
half-past three o'clock Mr. haott, of New
Jersey, was chosen Umpire, and the game
commenced with the Detroliat the bat. The
contest hated about three hours, resulting
in a victory for .the . Allegheny Club, the
score standing
• at the close of the ninth In
nings' twenty-nine for the Allegheny and
18 for tbe'Betroit. The Detroit boys seem
ed to be up to their business, and played
remarkably well. hut . the, Alleghenies,
'doubtless remembering their late defeat,
used-Every exertion, playibg from first to
last as though bent en victory. We thought
the Detroit slackened a little in the vigor
"Of their play about the sixth inning, or
otherwise the result might have been dif
ferent. They are very good players in
fielding. but at the bat the Alleghenies are
rather their superiors. Frequently during
the gairie thei large concourse ox spectators
manifested the interest they took in the
affair by clapping of bands and cheering as
some active player developed his skill in
taking a -ball on the fly or making the ran
home.. Altogether the contest was one of
the most interesting and exciting that ever
took place here.
• ;= The mens.bers of the Detroit will leave for
borne ,to-morrew In the six a. tn. train.
Althcnigh beaten in the game, yet by their
urbanity - and gentlemanly deportment
while here they have won the'esteem of all

the Democratic platform. "Is a discreditable
assardt onthe integrity and good , faith of
the nation."
Tan - New York Journal of Commerce,
Democratic Ortin: of the dignity school,
says the Demotratic plitform is an out-and
out rqudiation'ortlie itolenin promises of
the Governinent.
Aouraan Ssimmis ,liu been making , a
s_,fth in support ,of Seymour and Blair.
We wonder if he' expects, in case they
should be elected, to be appointed Minister
to England. Re just the man to
iettle the Alabama claims. = ' •
BEFOILE the war Seymour denounced the
forts to save the country. During the war
he anathematized the men who were trying
to save the nation, and caressed those who
were in the interest of traitors. Since the-
War he has done nothing but.hine over its
cost. .
OF Fitsisri P. linern., the Democratic
nominee for Vico President, the Boston Ad
vertiser says: -
In character he is supremely,selftsh, fictive vin
toward friends whom ,he has desert
ed, afflicted with'a morbid passiOn for noto-,
riety, arid reckless to - the last degree in his
-associations and his personal' habits. '
AN indignant New York Democrat writes
to a friend in Boston: "The Democratic
Convention td-day, in indtatien of 'John
'Plicenix, who 'disarmed his adversary by
planting hls'nost in his 'opponent's mouth,
' and advancing his stomach suddenly and
violently asainst his adversary's fist, have
cleated U. S. -- grant to' the Presidency.
They have my heart curses.".
bun , - of Syracuse, one of
Seymour's most active and >infuential
friends in 1883, -remarked, in a speech in
opposition to the draft then pending, as fol-'
lows:
Ye dertls incarnate,. (the Government of
the United States) who, with hearts of ada-
mant and, tearless eye, dreg hundreds of
thousands to your slaughter pens; and de
mand the extermination of minions trionsof
the very brothers of "your blood—tremble!
TElE:Baltimore &rin eivs: is' Stated'
that Mr. Chase did not, in any of hie
ters and telegrams sent to New York , dur
ing the Convention, give the assurance that
he would support .the party in its nominee,
in the - event of himself 'not being selected.
It is no* said here, by'the friends of Mr.
Chase, that he will take no part in'the con
test=-will probably not even vete; but if he
should, will cast his ballot for Grant and
Colfax.
IT is now stated that Gen. Blair burned
the residence of 'Gen. Wade Hampton in
South Carolina. We forget which of the
rebel officers burned Gen. Blair's residence
near Washington. Now 'Hampton sup
porta Blair for. Vice President, and Blair
echoes Hampton's policy, of reviving the
ebellion on the question of colored suf

And mingled. Into one.
AMONG many siznificant incidents of the
late convention, there was one occurrence
which forcibly impressed us. We have not
seen it noticed elsewhere. When the, repti
'diation plank in the platform was read, it
met with a strange, wild burst of vocifer
ous applause. A quiet looking man writing
at a reporter's table near us--a correspon
dent of a Western paper, as we afterward
ascertained—half rose from his work, struck
.the table with> involuntary emphasis, and
uttered the startling exclamation, "By G—,
the rebel yell !"—Brooklyn Eagle.
he Washington correspondent of the
Pbhuielphia rms. telegraphs: "The defee
tio of the Johnsonites to the Democratic
party since the New York Convention hart
been marked indeed; but is reaching its
flood tide now. Among the latest of the
many prominent men of this class who have
given in their adherence to Grant-and Col
fax is Hon. Martin F. Conway, formerly a
member of the Rouse from Kansas, and
now United States Consul at Maiseilles.
He will probably , take the stump for the
Republican ticket." -. •
Tin New York Herald says very truly
So far as the State of New Yolk is concert
ed we have no doubt that her fifty,.thousarui
majority cast last year kir the Democratic
ticket will be entirely wiped out next No
vember, and that the State will go about the
same number the other way', It is possible
that in the several Conresslonal districts
where sound Conservative men are nomina
ted the vote may be cast against' the Radi
cals ; but-there can be no question that the
people will show at the ballot box that they_
have not forgotten lhe lessons of the war.
