Boston, Oct. 6. Congressman William Bourke Cochran addressed a big democratic ratification meeting at Tremont Temple this evening. At 6:45 when the doors were opened the large auditorium was immediately filled with a crowd anxious to bear the congressman and Hon. James M.

Beck Philadelphia, who also was to speak. Many ladies were in the first gaiiery and soma of tbe aldermen occupied prominent seats there. Baldwin's band played patriotic airs until the hour for opening tha meeting and the audience watched the prominent democrats who took their seats on tho platform. Shortly before 8 o'clock Congressman Cochran and Mr. Beck took seats upon the platform.

They were followed by lion. Frederick O. Prince and Hon. John H. Mc- Donough, chairman of the democratic city committee.

Jcsiah Quincy and Dr. William Everett of Quincy, sat near them. The entrance of the speakers was the signal foe hearty applause. Mr. McDonough at once introduced Mr.

Prince as presiding oflicsr, and the latter made a brief speech. After referring to tbe necessity of standing squarely upon tha Chicago platform and endorting and supporting tbe candidates, Mr. Prince then introduced Hon. James M. Beck of Philadelphia as the first speaker.

He was greeted with applause, which grew more enthusiastic as be proceeded, in spite of his attempt to check it. He closed with as appeal to the men of New England for a free government, freer commerce and a constitutional government, all of which be claimed wera opposed by principles of the republican parly. 31 r. Cochran's Speech. Congressman William Bourke Cochran of New York was greeted with an enthusiastic demonstration wben he rose to speak.

He raid that be believed iu tbis State we were witnessing tbe awakening of the people which would result in bringing Massachusetts back into the column devoted to the defence of the constitutional government. He proceeded: "How are the interests of labor best subserved For ttat is tbe question which divides both political parties. The democratic party believes it is when there is most demand for it, the republican party seems to believe that it is by some protective taxation which first takes the money from tho pockets of the laborer and afterward returns it increased tenfold. The democrats believe the attempt to buttress our national wealth by mere legislative inactment is but an attempt to make this nation grow by its wits instead of by industry. When legislative power is used to enrich anybody, it can only Us exercised by taking wealth from somebody eUe.

The republican party claim by high taxation they are enriching the manufac turer first and the laborer afterward. We believe that when you allow free raw material to come into this country the American laborer asks no other advantage. What has been done for the shoe industry by placing hides upon the free list, we believe would be done for the wool and iron industries by placing wool and iron on the free list. In tha paragraph of tha McKinley bill wa have a power given the president to suspend the operation of the turii" law. That is tho power claimed by Charles 1.

and James II. I appeal here in Massachusetts for a wider interpretation of our constitutiou than mere terms of tbe instrument which forma the basis of tbe union of our States. Is the constitutional system of t-is country confined to the mere words of that instrument or da we enjoy that constitutional liberty which the Pilgram fathers sought I don't believe the constitutional history of this country begau when that constitution was adopted. If tbis reciprocity scheme of Mr. Blaine's, with its vicious unconstitutional enroach-ment upon the life of the American people, were to bring untold millions into every city of tbis Union, the wealth would have! been purchased at too great a sacrifice cf tbe institutions which made us what we are and which unfold to us destiny which we hope to accomplish.

It bad its origiu in the cabin of the Mayflower. The spirit of liberty and of constitutionalism i inherited in the human race; it represeuts the divinity which is planted in man; it is the divine principle of equity which is inexhaustible; that constitutional system hold as its fundamental truth the theory tbat taxation without representation is tyrannj'. The American people are the depositors of their rights, and to tbat people we appeal in tbe name of constitutional liberty to stamp out under thoir heels forever the encroaching march of republican aggression against tbe constitutional system which we live. under Alter speaking of the merchant marine which Le said was originaliy destroyed bv the republicans, the sneaker discussed the force bill, which he declared subversive of American liberties. A referetca to party unity caused somebody to call for three cheers for David B.

Hill, which wera given with a will. Mr. Ccchran spoke over an hour and it was 10.30 when the meeting broke up, but! tha bali was as crowded at the close as the beginning. Highest cf all in Leavening I at i adjourued. Senate Afternoon.

6. Capt. H. S. Fos ter, 20th Lnited States inrantry, in his report to the war department on tbe national guard of Vermont, states that the time of the troops in encampment was well employed, the object well fulfilled and the interest evinced by both cfllcers and men in thei duties sbowel that they had a stronz desire to learn and improve.

The officers as a class had good capacity and apjtitude and were capable of leading and instiiliug prop er enthusiasm and discipline among their men. Generally speaking, he found the na tional guard of Vermont composed of in telligent, zealous and practical men, and in any emergency that might arise, they would fully sustain the good reputation they had in the late war. The discipline of tbe troops during the encampment was good, the men were quiet and orderly and the observation of military courtesies fair. Capt. Foster recommends the establish ment of a permanent camp ground with a ood target range at some available point and thinks that the efficiency of the guard would be greatly ahanced by such a selection.

BiograpHlcal Sketch III Successor as Lanxeat Other Foreign Uriefi. London, Oct. 6. Lotd Tennyson died at 1:33 this morning. Hi passing away was calm and peaceful.

Si" Andrew Clark, one of the physicians who attended tbe poet, said to a reporter that Lord Tennyson's death was the most glorious he had ever witnessed. There was no artificial light ia the room and tbe chaiabiT was almost in darkness, save where a broad flood of moon light poured in through the window and shone on tbe features of the dying poet. Twice during the night he smiled to those at the bedside, but was too feeble to speak. The tide of bis life slowly and gently ebbed out into tbe ocean of the infiuite and the end came so calmly that watchers could scarcely distinguish final moment. All the membdri of the poet's family were at his bedside.

THE LAUREATES HI P- IlriUih Opinion that Gla.lstone Will Call Mvinburne to Tennygou's fot. London, Oct. 6. Th3 Pall Mall Gazette, quoting Gladstone's tribute to Swinburne in his article on "British potry in the 19th century," the premier will appoint Swinburne to the vacant post of poet-laureate. The Gazette adds: 'In view of the abuse Swinburne has iheapad upon Glad stone, the choice would be characteristic, aud an instance of a great man's magnanimity.

The Kepase of Death. The body of Lord Tennyson lies on the bed on which he He looks 15 years younger than bafore'deatb, the lines and wrinkles of the face eing less apparent. The beard, which was unkempt in life, has been carefully trimmed; the hands are folded over the chest; a laurel wreath crowns the head and another dies at the feet. The coverlet over the body is almost hidden be neath the flowers which have been placed UDon it. Burning wax taners lend a sub dued light to the chamber.

Tho bishop of Winchester will preach the funeral sermon ia the Haslemere church on Sunday. Itlograhlcal Sketch of the Poet. Alfred Tennyson was born in August, 1801), and consequently was in his 84tn year at the time of his death. He was edu cated at Cambridge and won the chancel lor's medal by his poen "Timbuctco," in 1619. Tennyson was tukde poet-laureate in 1S50, when Wadsworth uied.

At the commemoration of 1855, the Uni versity of Oxford, giving expression to tbe universal feeling of England, conferred on the poet houorary'tha degree of D. C. and the Fellows cf his own college, Trinity, Cambridge, endorsing the judgment of tbe sister university, sjb cribedjto purchase his bust (by oolner(, which they have placed iu their library, and lbtil) they unanimous ly elected him an' honorary fellow of the college. Queen Victoria created him Baron Ten nyson d'Eyncourt of Aid worth, la 1883. The first volume of poems bearing his name was the work of bis elder brother Charles and himself.

It was published iu 1827. Three years after "Poems, Chiefly Lyrical" appeared, tbe exclusive works cf Alfred, ard the bright dawn cf his glorious success as a poet. By many critics his "In Memoriam" is regarded as tha greatest poetn of the csntury It was issued anonymously in 18u0, being a series of elegies a tribute of affection to the memory of Arthur Hallam, a son of tbe eminent historian uui the cbosen frieud of tbe poet in his earlier days at Cambridge, His "Ode on tbe Death of the Duke of Wellington" was published in 1832, on the morning ot tne iunerai; ana since tnat oc currence few events of more than ordinary interest to Englishmen have taken place without eliciting from the laureate some poem worthy of tho occasion. "Maud, and other poems" appeared in 1853; "Tbe Idylls of the King," 'in 1858 "Enoch Arden, aud other poems," in 1834; "The Holy Grail, ana other poems," in 18G9. "A concordance to the entire Works of Alfred Tennvson," published in the last named year, is a remarkable proof of the Laureate's great popularity.

His works comprise a great variety, in eluding several dramas wnich are better read than acted. Perhaps his Arthurian poetry is the most read. Tennyson wa3 master mind and a consummate artist. No recent poet can be said to have attained hi eminence and none has claimed a larger place in the affections of English speaking people. To Itest iu Westminster Abhor.
