I been proved to the satisfaction of everybody. COL. CARROLL. BURNED. REPUBLICANS.

thafllio Democracy are Indebted to Colonol CarroU. For very many years Jus thought, his time, his presence and his'purse, have been at their service. Through nearly a Bcoro of campaigns he has stood at tho front, straggling in every' honorable way for tho success of the principles which he professes ana for the triumph of tho BJeClrepMefinHngem. His examplo has been'oa "a light Bel on hill," to the snccessf ul men of buslnefs, who. to so manz.fnstances neglect the duties of citizenship, affeot oontempt for the methods of popular government and hold themselves aloof from tho activities upon the right' ehaping of which good government in this oonntry depends.

Because of" oil this we say the party is la his debt and the present opportunity to squore the account" ought to be eagorly embraced, wo would, not Indulge In tho unErocloua business of making comparisons between Colonel Carroll and any other candidate who may bo proposed, but we submit that there is a broad, distinction which ought not to be forgotten between a man to whom the party owes much and those who owe much to the party. Fourth It Is the duty of tho local Democracy In this canvass to put no man on the ticket whose presence there would havo tho effept.pr.diminiBhing that majority for the State nominees, which they are sure to receive if the leading local nominations are conspicuously good. Colonel parroU'a nomination havo the: effect of strengthening many Repnblicans in their inclination to act with the Democrats this year, and would to a certainty go far toward weakening any disaffection thero may be In trds olty touobing Btote mavterB. For these' reasons wo submit to you, fellow Democrats, that you owe It to yourselves, to the best interests of tne party here and to tho Democracy of the Commonwealth to urge upon the men who are to deolde this matter In the county convention the manifest propriety of nominating Colonol Thomas Carroll for Roglitor. Respectfully, Ahdbew mcLbah, Felix Campbell, Geo.

Stevekhaoen, JOBH P. HENHES8T. N.B. Herewith the oommlttee present the names of somo of the gentlemen who participated lu the proceedings of the aforementioned meeting, and whose views could not be made to preserve evon tho semblance of government. Whore, outside of a diseased imagination, ia there an English speaking community in which bad faith and brutality are not exceptional A moment's reflection ought to convince any one of the semi insanity of tho notion that six millions of people, with Anglo Saxon blood in their veins, with Anglo Saxon traditions, professing tho Christian religion, are leagued to shed the blood of the innocent, swindle thoso who trust them with money, and ruin the country to which they have professed allegiance and iu whose prosperity they are as muoh interested as any other of its inhabitants can possibly be.

It is a dishonor to our people that politicians hope to forward their selfish 'interests by pretending to believe such wholesale denunciation justified by facts, that such a black and bloodycaricature of civilized humanity is a true picture. There are, doubtless, bad men in the South, but whon did they become the whole Southern peopla any more than the men who shoot and stab up here embrace the North. There are, no doubt, dishonest men in the South, but when did tho exceptional cases that have been brought to light cover the entirety of that region? Is the North given over to knavery because we have thieves, defaulters, rotten banks and towns that are bankrupt It is an abuse of terms to dignify such reckless assertions with the name of argument. Mr. Douglas ought to know better and speak better.

As to the sectional apirit, it seems to us that the men most responsible for it aro those who go about traducing millions of Americans and stimulating wholesale hatred. The Southern people may be pardoned surely for presenting a solid front to a party whose orators begin argument by lumping them to order until late and Only two speakers made nd dresses. Conterno's band was In attendance and fair gaihorlng occupied tbo soots in the hall. General Gates colled the mooting to order, stating that It assembled to ratify tbe Saratoga nominations. Ho then nominated ex Dtstrlct Attorney Wins low as permanant Chairman.

Mr. Wlnslow, on taking tho chair, returned thanks for the honor and stated thot tho Republicans were again called upon to stand up for tho Republican party, to stand up for equal justice and for honest tnonoy. The Republican party had lasted for over twenty flvo yoars and Is Justly entitled to its silver wedding. Ho predicted tbo sure election of Aionzo is. Cornell at the coming election.

The following gentlemen were then elected as Vice Presidents and Secretaries Ylco Presidents Messrs. B. F. Blair, Augustus Ford, George B. Forrester, Andrew G.

Coffin, James Watt, William Colt, William H. Beard, John J. Van Noetrand, Jacob B. Mtsson, William J. Thayer.

Secretaries William H. BUoy, Charles H. Bajer and J. Forley Wilder. EX JUDOE DrTTENHOEFEB was Introduced, and was received with cheers, He stated that on the 6th of November next thero would bo a greater illumination for tho success of (he Repub'ican party than thore had been to night The coming canvass is a most Important one, for If New York goes Republican she simply wheels Info line for the Presidential election.

Tho 8outh is not now as It was in 1876, thia ooming Presidential year tho 8outh will be a unit for too Democratio candldato, bo bo Tildon, Thurman, Bayard or any one else. Consequently, it is of tho utmost importance that Now York State ohould be Repub Ucon nay, It Is absolutely necessary that tho North honld bo one solid Republican unit as against tho banded South. It becomes the duty of every Ropubli. can in tho North, ond especially in this State, to bury his porsonal differences, ond vote the straight Republican ticket. If a Democratio President Is elected, the Democratic party will havo full control of the Government of the United Slates.

What does that moan It means thnt tha 8outh will have supreme control of the Government. The Democratio party relic upon the South for its strongth, and should It win it will have to cater to the South. Why, to day tboro is not a Southerner In tho South or In Congress who does not believe that they were right In tho war, and if thoy can get control they will try and repay themselves for what they claim to be their losses. The speaker did not blame them for trying to restore to themselves what they hod lost, but he would blame the Republican party If It gave them the chance to do eo. If tho Democratio party, thoroforo, should win In the noxt Presidential election, tho South would In fact be tho victors.

They would rule tho entire country. Whenever wo got a Democratio President, with a Democratic Congress, thon ovon tho Supreme Court the United States will be packed with Democratic Judges, This would be a terrible condition of things, but in case the Democrats sboulil be victorious in 1830 tbls will be tbe case. These are some of the serious consequences of Democratic success. It may be said that this is mere speculation, that if a Democratio president is elected theso things may not be done. That may be bo, but with tho Democrat you only have "a may be" or perhaps," when with a Republican President it Is a certainty that no such thing ever could happen.

Would any buslnoss man take such a vonture? Not one. No Republican voter therefore ought to do so. Thoy should soe to It that tho National Government is left In tho hands of tbe Republicans. If Cornell is elected this year it will bo a certainty that a Republican President will follow in tho next Don't let the Republicans bo over confident, do not let thorn be too let them work earnestly and zealously for a' Republican victory. The speaker said he was not ono of those who thought Kelly would draw off as many Democratio votes as somo people believed he would, and he hoped that no Republican would bo lulled to political lethargy by any such belief.

Only let evory Republican work honestly, A. B. Cornell will be as surely elected as it is that tho day of election will surely come. Tho Chairman then read a serioa of resolutions Indorsing tho Republicon State ticket, which were unanimously adopted. MB.

P. W. OSTBANDEB, on being Introduced, said that Judge Dlttenhoefer had spoken of tho fire in tho commencement of his speech. Ho, tho speaker, thought it did not toko very great stretch of imagination to believe that the fire was only 0 TictorlouB Illumination for tho Ohio victory, ond suggestive of the victory which Is to follow. Tbe speaker hod noticed a hearse In tho Immediate vialnago of the fire, and it looked to him as though It was meant to carry off tho Democratio dead from tbo battlefield.

Why ia It that ths "solid South" dominates the Demo orotlo party Because, now that tbo Democratic "rag baby is dead, they havo no issue except that which the South presents. For this reason the party is in sympathy with tbe South, No matter how the Democratio party succeeds, if it Bhould in 1880, the South will hove the power, ond will hold the reins of government Governor Robinson may be a good man, bnt he has done nothing fori Brooklyn or Kings County, and ths citizens of this city and county do not owe him anything certainly not vote. Governor Robinson Is controlled entirely by the basses of the Democratio party and he has to do what he is told whereas tho bosses of tho Republican party ore tho voters, not any one man power, but the entire voters of tho State, and whatover they toll Governor Cornell to do, ho will do. Tho speaker stated that he hod some slight acquaintance with Mr. Cornell, and hod discussed State politics with him.

He found Mr. Cornell one of the clearest headed men with regard to his conversation rolotl ve to tho needs of the State. He Is polite, easily approached, ond never was an olnce seeker. He Is an organizer In tho best sense of tho term. He has been called a machine man.

Ho Is, for ho can run tha Republican machine in tbls State for tho good of tho people, but in no other manner. If tbe State Is not to bo given over to plunderers and thieves It should bo icon to that A. B. Cornell la elected with a majority that New York State may bo proud of the grand rosult will be tho elect ion of a Republican President in 1880. Mr.

Wlnslow then adjourned the meeting. fourth Ward Republican. A special meeting of tho Fourth Ward Republican Association was hold last eronlng at Sanyer's Hall, J. H. Bonnelt, Prosldont, in tho chair, and II.

W. Squlro, Sooretary. There was a Urgo attendance of members, as it was understood that ticket to be run at tho primary this evening would be agreed upon. Tho two factions, into which tho association is split up, were well represented, and hoodod by Mike Dady and Joe Reoye respectively, occupied opposite eldos of tho hall. The Reeve faction showed up In moro Imposing numbers, and outvoted Dady and his friends on all the disputed points that come up.

After the reading and approval of tho minute of the previous meeting, a roport was received from the Investigating Commtttea reoommanding that several namoa should bo placed on the roll. Among thorn was that of Luther B. Hallock, to which Mr. Dady object 9d on tho ground that Mr. Hallock had never appeared before tho association.

Ths Secretary positively assorted that Mr. Hallock had attended the lost mooting, Mr, Dady was just as positlvo that he did not, bnt subsequently admitted, after bearing the statements of overal momberj that thoy hod seen Mr. Hallock In the room, thot ho was mistaken. The Secrotory gave notico that ho would prefer charges against Darld J. Graham on tho ground that ho woe affiliating with tho Democratic party.

Mr. Graham arose and pronounced tho man a liar who said ao, and the Secretary wlthdrow his notice. A long controversy thon ensued, tauohing tho political recritudo of John Olfbel, who, it was alleged, was Secretary of tha German Democratio General Commltteo, but all efforts to have him investigated woro voted down by tbe Roeve faction, Mr. Itelll moved that a committee of seven bo appointed to propare a ticket for tho primary, and tho Chair appointed as such committee Messrs. Roeve, Hopkins, Wheeler, Poole, Itell, Fenntsll and Squire.

Mr. Dady objected to the composition of tho committee and govo notice that the ticket proporod by thorn would be opposed this evening. A motion was made to adjourn, but it was defeated, and the committee thon retired and after an absence of half an hour returned and reported tho following tlckety which was indorsed County E. M.

The meeting then adjourned. affairs. Wd fail td see how the South as a section, or any portion of the South, has sought to force sectional issue upon the country. The truth is that the Republicans invariably endeavor to make evory popular contest a sectional fight, and will continue to. do so as long as there is any possibility of gaining political capital by that sort of an outcry.

They are even trying to elect a Governor of New York upon sectional issues, as if bad government in any county or State of the South could be an excuse for misgovernment in New York. James G. Blaine has been carrying the Republican party on his shoulders from Maine to Iowa, and seems to like the load; but how will he stagger under the weight of John Kelly when he brings his burden to New York? The Republican gains at the Connecticut town elections were derived from the imagination of the Associated Press reporters. The Republicans have lost eleven towns, compared: with the number they controlled lastjyear. Even if a third term for Grant were a national necessity, it would not follow that Alon zo B.

Cornell, with the aid of John would mako as good a Governor of the State of New York as honest old Lucius Robinson. The result of the Ohio election should impress upon the Democrata of Massachusetts the importance of keeping their feet out of the Butler trap. The Cornell Kelly combination must bo regarded by Senator Conkling as really the greatest effort of his life. There is no game law to prevent the slaughter of the Kelly Cornell alliance in November CURRENT EVENTS. The Treasury Department purchased yesterday 50,000 ounces of One silver for delivery at the Philadelphia Mint.

The annual convention of the Mutual Benefit Association of the United States opened at Washington yesterday. The associations represented have 250,000 members, and have paid In benefits over $13,000,000. Flour advanced yesterday from fifteen to twenty five 'cents' above the closing price of Tuesday. The movement was caused entirely by speculation, as there was only A moderate oxport demand. The widow of Thomas S.

Stephenson, who fell into an open draw of the Third avenue Bridge, oyer the Harlem River, last Christmas eve, and waa drowned, has recovered $5,000 from tho City of Now York; Postmaster Tyler, of Baltimore, against whom charges of neglect of official duties and undue attention to female clerks in bis pffloo were made some time since, is likely to be removed. The special agents who made the Investigation have completed their work and reported. The report has not been officially promulgated, but it is said in Washington that tho charges are proved. The returns to the Department of Agriculture for the month ending Cctobor 1, 1879, show an average condition for tha cotton States of 81, being a decline since September 1 Of 1. Compared with October, 1878, thore ia a decrease of 9 per cent, of State averages.

The condition then was 90. Arkansas and Tennessee are tho only States Bhowing an increase over the oonditlon at this time In 1878. The Rev. J. C.

Lorimer, D.D., a prominent minister, who six months ago became the suocossor of Dr. Evarts, in the First BaptlBt Church, in Chioago, tho leading church of ths denomination in that city, is accused of plagiarism, He preached a sermon last Sunday, which was stolen from one delivered In the City Temple, London, England, by the Eev. Joseph Parker, D.D., a 'year ago. The two sermons aro in thd hands of some of the ohurch people, and the proof is conclusive. In the Hayden murder trial, at New Haven, yeBterday, the Jury was completed and tho evidence was begun in the afternoon.

The testimony taken was unimportant. Tho Sheriff of the oounty testified that he was twice present when Mary Stannard'B grave waa opened. He waa there in his official capacity, as there had been rumora of possible foul play. Professor White, of the Yolo Medical College, who removed tho internal organs of the murdered girl for examination, was a witness. The First Division of the National Guard of New York, Major General fihaler.

commanding, was reviewed yesterday afternoon by his Excellency Governor Robinson. The review took place at the junction of Broadway and Fifth avenue, and a grand stand was erected near ths Worth Monument for tho accommodation of tho Governor and guests. Thousands of people witnessed tho review. Governor BoblnBon was In an open barouche, drawn by coal black horses, and. his stan1 on horseback.

The ranks of tho regiments were unusually full, and the appearance made was excellent; Haverstraw gave Nicholas Murphy, the lad who won tho O'Leary belt, a welcome yesterday. H1b backers, who were well repaid for their'oxpenae and trouble In his behalf, were' with him, and ho carried in his hand through the town tho belt. Cannons and an anvil made all the noise that was wanted, but tile factory whistles and ail the bells of the place pealed out a welcome to the Buocessf ol pedestrian. A committee welcomed him at the pier, and ho rode in a carriage decked with flowers. The entire population of the olty was out to welcome him.

Murphy carried home with him beside the belt 000. Mr. Merritt Trimble, whose office is on the fourth floor of the building at the northeast corner of Courtlandt and Church Btreets, New York, was robbed of a quantity of bonds by three men, one of whom on gaged him In conversation while the others stole the bonds from hit safe. The lo3s, as by Mr. Trimble, is $22,560.

Tho robbery was not discovered until several hours afterward. Mr. Trimble Is a wealthy man, and Is treasurer of the Roosevelt Hospital Society. He deollned to state whether the bonds were his own property or not. The numbers and denominations of the stolen bonds were known, and 'measures were taken to stop, the negotiation of them.

Washington Woodworth, one of the alleged Mount Vernon burglars, who waB arrested in Baltimore last Monday, was arraigned yesterday bofore JubUco McClellan, in Mount Vernon. The1 residence of Bev. Dr. Bcuddqr was forcibly entered on the 30th of September by burglars, and property belonging to hini, consisting of silver apoonB, forks, knireB, napkin rings and on overcoat, was stolen. The property was found in tha possession of young Woodwqrth.

After preliminary examination, he was oommitted without bail, to await tho aotion of the Grand Jury. Woodworth Is the son of the late Judge Woodworth, of Yonkers, who was at one time a very wealthy resident of Yonkers. The committee of the State Board of ChariT ties appointed to investigate the ohargos of neglect, immorality and unfitness against tho management of tho House of Refuge, on Randall's Island, its first meeting yesterday, at No. 67 Madison avenue. The members of Che committee are William P.

the Society for the Reformation of Juvenile Delinquents, and the Superintendent is Israel P. Jones. The sessions of the Protestant Episcopal Missionary Conference viere hold in Association HaU, New York yesterday. Tho forty fourth annual report of the Committee for Domestio Missions was submitted. The.

report showed that 830 missionaries in the United States were supported by tho society, of whom 225 ore distributed among white people, among the negroes end 61 among the Indians, Tho society has expended IM, 977.07 among the whites, foOOilO among the Indians and $8,618.99 among the' colored people.

A number of prizes were awarded, and officers for the ensuing year wer, ejected. The next meeting wiU be held in Chicago: In the oven(ng a dinner was enjoyed by the association and IU guests, nmaboring ls.au over 200 persons. The floral designs were unique, one of them being an old fashioned mall coach. Its body was of heliotrope, orange blossoms' and 'carnations, and the seats of violets.

The members made an excursion to. day around the harbor. The taxpayers of 'Somerset fCdunty, N. J. Havo believed for some tlmo that the Board of Freo toldeisoi tho county his.

been guilty or wasteful', and Improper expenditures of the publlo money. A month' BVappuca tlon was made Dlrympley of the Supreme Court, for the appointment of, a Committee of Investigation, and a committee was appointed. Work was commenced at once, a': 3emand was made on thp Collector for his books and all vouchers from 1873 to 1879. When they, called at the; bonk for the records and vouchers, which had boon 'deposited with that for safe keeplngj they learned that, they were stolen. The cashier of the bank is also Oounty Collector.

opinion holds that tho theft was committed at the Instance of some parties engaged in franduloht transactions with the county. Nothing was missing from the bank but the publlo reoordsijcontainlng the account of moneya.pild.bj tbe County.

The Blair Armstrong murder trial at Newark Was continued yesterday, and the day was coustimod in thoDresentation of the' case by Blair's; ex udge Tlteworth.

lo 4y as given to'Honv Court lnndt Porker, senior counsel far the dofepse. Attorney General Stockton will close the oase for the State in i three hours' speech, Tho case will reach the jury oii Friday afternoon Tiie. court room yosterday was crowded, and tho wife ond children ot the prisoner were beside him. The legal aspects of the case, as given ia es JbdgB Tifstrorth's speech, were explained, and the speaker contended that Blair had a right to discharge Armstrong from, bis service for hia vioIqdco and threats and profanity and drunkenness, even though his month not up; that It was Armstrong's business to go at once, evon without his money; that by remain ing he became a trespasser, and Blair had the right to ueo all necessary force iu putting him off the premises. The appeal made to the Jury was pathetlo and affeoted the audience to tears.

But tho innocent appeal of one of the littlo children of the prisoner to "Papa, to comb homo to night," had more effect than tho lawyort speech. The Democrats are quite as Iilroly to carry Ohio next year as they would havo boon if Ewing had carried it this year. The Republicans are doubtless" in a minority, aa thoy have been for several years. Their plurality may reach 15,000, but is not likely to go over that figure. The Democrats had a plurality two years ago of 22,520, and may regain it at the next election.

The opposition majority in the last Legislature was 42. The Republicans claim a majority of 30 in the next Legislature, and this figure is liable to be reduced. Thus Ohio politica, appears: to be a game of seesaw, in which one aide goes up, and the other goes down, with bewildering but not altogether unexpected alternations. The substantial gains made by the Republicans at thia election exaotly equal thoae made by the Democrats at the last election. Then the Democrats gained a Senator and the power of rediatrioting the.

State. The Democrats used their power injudiciously and1 unfairly; the Republicans may now be expected to use their power even more unfairly, if not more injudiciously, especially in the arrangement of the Congressional, districts. Consequently, another condition of disgust and another whirl of the political wheel may be looked for in the near future. We are unable to perceive that seotional issues, or the issueB raised at the extra session Of Congress, have had any appreciable effect in determining, the result of the Ohio election. The 'fact that Cinoinnati and the other business centres have been carried against Ewing and Thurman, showing large Republican gains, proves that the financial issue controlled the contest.

It must be added that the last Democratic Legislature made itself quite unpopular, and that Senator Thurman has largely lost the confidence of businesa men. In Iowa the Republicans claim a majority of but these figures, ovon if they should bo sustained, show that there ia a drift in that State against the Republicans. Although they were left in a minority last year, owing to an unexpected and unaccountable Greenback craze, Iowa has not been supposed to be anything but a solid and sure Republican State, and the Republican majorities in 1876 and 1877 were considerably larger than the claim that is now made. Neither of these Statea haa done anything toward determining tho iasue of the. contest of 1880, and it is only safe to say that a close and exciting Presidential contest may be expected next year, the result depending largely upon vents which cannot be at present foreshadowed.

TUe Haydea Trial. Tho Rev. Herbert H. Hayden is at last squarely on trial for the murder of Mary E. Stannard, the blunder of tho legal copyist aa to her name in one of the counts having neces aitated the drawing of a fresh indictment and tho swearing of a new jury.

If ho is innocent of the crime charged against him, it must be a relief to Mr. Hayden and his family to know that the evidence is at longth to be thoroughly sifted and a full opportunity of clearance and discharge to bo afforded him; and, whether innocent or not, it will be a satisfaction to the public to have the case disposed of after ao much circumlocution and technical procrastination. The circumstances of the crime in their general outline were briefly these Mr. Hayden at the time of his arrest was pastor of a small Methodist Church at Madison, and he also owned a small farm at Rockland, a hamlet in the northwestern part of Madison. Mary Stannard, an uneducated and unfortunate girl, was living in Rockland with her father at the time of the murder.

About a month before the murder Mrs. Hayden gave birth to her third child, and Mary Stannard attended her during her illness. About three years before her death Mary herself had given birth to an illigitimato child, the father being a young married man at East Wallingford. The Hay dens took a great interest in her and in the Summer of 1877, while Mrs. Hayden was teaching school, she was an inmate of the family and subsequently for some months from December, 1877, till March, 1878.

Her position was rather that of a friend and companion than a ser vant.It was at thia time that gossip became busy with the intimacy of Mr. Hayden with Mary Stannard. Clandestine meetings, strolls in out of the way places and on dark nights were talked of. On one occasion, in particular, it ia said that Mr. Hayden left a pi'onio, whiob.

lie and his wife were attending, on the pretext of putting the children to bed, though Mary Stannard, who was at home with them, could have done so, and then, it is alleged, he had criminal relations with her. On the 18th of August, 1878, Mary Stannard left hor father's, at Rockland, and took service with a family in Guilford. Mrs. Stud ley, her mistress, remarking her despondency, asked, the cause in a kindly way, and Mary at length told her that she was fiye months with ohild, and that Mr. Hayden was the father of it.

Mrs. Studloy finding evidence of her condition being asshesaid, advised herto see Mr. Hayden and ask for assistanoe. One of the main pieces of evidenoe for the prosecution, if the court admits it, will be a letter written by Mary Stannard to Mr. Hayden, enclosed in another to her half sister, Susan Hawley, and addressed by Mr.

Edgar Studley, who, when he heard its contents aubsoquently from his wife, rer fused to have anything to do with the operation for abortion which it proposed to Mr. Hayden, and declined to allow Mary to continue in his house. On the following Sunday Mr. Studley took her back to her father's at Rockland. On the same afternoon Susan' Hawley reoelved by post the above letter but before, she could give the one inclosed to Mr.

Hayden, Mary took it from her and burned it. She told Susan, however, the whole state of affairs, and that she meant to compel Mr. Hayden to get her out of her trouble. On that same Sunday, Mr. Hayden was preaohing in his church at South Madison.

On the Monday Mary called twice at hia house in the morning and once in the afternoon to borrow a hay rake, which Mr. Hayden fetched for her from the barn. On Tuesday, September 3, the day of the murder, Mr. Hayden left home about six in the morning to buy some oata, as he told his wife. Ho did not say that he was going to Middletown, and sho first, learned that he had been there from the newspapers.

He returned about ten o'clock, Mary having called twice in the interval, and. having said, aocording to Mrs.1 Hayden, Oh, dear Tve a good mind to kill. myself, and so rat art end to all my "troubles." Mr. Harden, meanwhile, had bought an onnce of arsenic at a drag tore in Middletown, to kill rats in his barn," and he had a talk with Dr, Leonard Bailey about tho indications of pregnancy and other female sickness. He stopped at the Stannards' on his way home and took hia two children into his wagon and Mary walked to a spring between tho two houaea, and gave him a drink of water.

On her return she told her half sister Susan that she was to meet him again by appointment that afternoon at "Big.Rock" northeast of where they both lived and near a deserted, highway, and that he had seen a doctor in Middletown, and bought her some "quick medicine." The theory of the prosecution is that Mr. Hayden met her, gave her tho arsenic, and that whon ahe uttered a cry which! was heard and which frightened a witness; jM rs. Mills, he then finished his work witha' "stone and" a knife. Upon his own pociietknife, it is alleged, that a spot of mammal blood was found by the doctors. They also found in Mary Stannard'B body enough arsenic 50 grains in a solid masa to 2 persons.

But, strangely enough, the doctors found no symptoms of pregnanoy. This is the first logal trial ths accused has had, the trial in church, though conducted by lawyers, having been the mere fiasco which church trials usually are. Ho has' been mord than a year in prison owing to the State Attorney Piatt having been elected to the United States Senate. This has created some extra sympathy for him; Bt we'ramember, the English Parliament afW e'J Restoration, passed a bill that a man ohargb'd'nth crime' should be tried within a yeat or sot at liberty but the State of Conneotiout has its own ways of justice. The trial will be one of unusual interest, and it would be wrong even to express an opinion beforehand.

This much may, however, be said, that the defense seems to be conscious of the hard workbeforept by attempting at the outset to show that some of the dootors might have tampered with the remains, and that one of them perhaps brought parts of some other body in hie hand and then pretended to take them from the body of Mary Stannard. The wild eyed Tribune declares election is a sectional fight, and insists that tho South is responsible for such a sad state of Bio ard Whipple Sod's Planing Mill in Court Street, Fifiron Thousand Dollars Damage Ing Scones In Rescuing Horses and Other Property. At half past seven o'clock List ovonlug Mr. Martin Ilrcon was standing In conversation with eorao gentlemen In front of tho drug atoro on tho onth rtdo of Court street, near Buller, when suddenly ba noticed bright light upon tho promlseo No. Court street, oe oupled by Richard Whipple It Sones oploalng mill.

Boforo tho engines arrived upon tho scene of tho conflagration, howovcr, quite on exciting scene occurred.

In tbo rear of the lot No. Court etret, and irornediately adjoining the roar ol Whipple's mill, is tho stable of Francis Harper, tbe undertaker, tn ths stable were flro Jet block borsos of considerable value. Tho noise consequent upon tbo brooking out and dtscovery of the flro, and the commo Uon which occurred outside, occasioned the animals to become frightened. Their Dolghlng ond stamping In thoir efforts to get loose from their otailo, attracted tho attention of Mr. Breen and somo othor gontlemen.

Mr. David Lyol was very acUvo In saving these homes, tho rescue of two of thorn being das entirely to his exertions, which wore mado with much danger and risk to himself. They made a dah for tho stable, broko open tho door and at once proceeded to unloose tho frightened animals. With considerable difficulty thoy ucoeded In ot tricoting four of the horses from their perilous position, but the Qfth became utterly unnunogoatilo and woull nelthor bo led or driven out. Tho poor boast was eo absolutely frightened that it was impossible to control him for some minutes, and fears were entertained tbt tho animal would bo lost, but Anally ono man.

more courageous than tho rost, blinded tbo bent, and ho was then led out. Thus tho horses wero saved. In five minutes moro the horses would havo partjbed. WhlJo tho engines wero at work, and tho firemen woro adjusting the hoso, the littlo pnut of men, headed by Mr. Breen, wero busily ongogod running out Harper's hoarse and a number of ico boxes.

Theso wero pllo 1 up In a conf used hoop upon tbo sidewalk, at a safe distance from the burning building, OOOD WOnK BT THB TOiEMEN was recognized by the fact that through thoir endeavors the flro was confined to tho building In which it originated, excepting that a damage of about 100 was dono to tho stablo of Sir. Harper. No. 264 Court stroet, immediately adjoining the burning mill, la a fonr story doublo building, of brick, which Is occupied by Poter Schmltx oa 0 manufacturing upholstery house. It was filled with furniture of all descriptions, seasoned wood, which would have burned like tinder, and a large quantity of ous and varnishes.

Chlf Novlns, who was personally In command of the firemen, stationed his orco eo as to ospoclally protect this building, and eo successful was ho that the only damage which was eus tolnod was caused by water, ond does not exceed 200. Mr. Schmltx stated to the EAor.8 reporter that ho Is fully Insured. Tbo. planing mill burned until eleven o'clock, at which tlmo tho lira was extingulshod.

Mr. Whipple was present and stated that his loss on building, stock and machinery would be obout $15,000, ond upon this ho has only an insurance of about 14,000. Ho was fully Insured in several companies, but his Insurance In most of them has run out, and ho was unable, last evening, to state In what companies ho Is now insured, but ho was oonfidont that hii loos In not covered by more than tho amount stated. Tha neighborhood of ths planing mil! Is very densoly populated, and while tho neighbors Bjmpothlze with Mr. Whipple as for as his loss it concerned, they aro glad that tho premises aro destroyed, and hope that tho result of tne flro will be that tho business will hare to bo removed to some otber quarter.

They allcgo that no such concern Bhould bo allowed to exist in a thickly populated neighborhood. In foot, the presence of tho planing mill has beon in somo Bonso a dotriment to those Uvlng and doing business on eithor side of it, aa difficulty has been experienced In obtaining Insurances on furnltnro and stock. Tho probabilities ore that Uio business will not be resumed thero. POLITICS ON THE ISLAND.

Mr. Reeves haa a good laugh at thu expense of tho Republican loaders.

READ HIS VIKWrl OF CHEAT BRITAIN IN THH HEW YORK FAMILY STORY PAPER. OUT TODAY. Fred UoHglas Siscnsses the Issues of the War. The Rally In the Sixth and Tenth Wards. Arranging Tickets for tho Primaries.

The Republicans of the Seventh Ward have erected a new wigwam on the corner of Closson and Putnam avenues, and last evening it waa packed to suffocation with on audience gathered to listen to an address by Fredorlck Douglas his first speech in this campaign. Although the proceedings did not begin until eight o'clock the building waa Jammod with people for an hour before that time. Thero were many ladies present in the oudlence, ond tho enthusiasm wm great. Mr. E.

Kennady presided, and the music was contributed by the Gleo Club of Company, of tha Twenty third Regiment. The meeting opened with solldtoHoM for money to pay for tho wigwam, and about $350 was collected iu sums varying from $1 to 3. Rev. Father Glcoson roods brlof speech, and Hon; Mr. Waring spoke, nrglhg'tha need of funds to pay foi the building and carry on the canvass.

Tho gleo olub sang a campaign song in excellent style and were loudly encored, and in response sang the old campaign melody, Down in tho Lowlands." Mr. Kennady then introduced Mr. Douglas, who wag received with great enthusiasm aa soon as he made hia appearance upon tha platform. Mr. Douglas has not changed much of late years in appearonoe, and is still the same earnest and vigorous speaker he was In years gone by.

When the applause had ceased ho spoke In BubBtance as followa MB. DOUGLAS' SPEECH. Ladies and Gentlemen I experience groat pleasure In meeting this Urge and intelligent assemblage in the interest of humanity and llborty. This is to be my first speech in this prosent campaign. Until summoned by your State Commltteo I had to think that my work in this line was about done, and that I might oak for a humblo place on.

tho list of retired campaign speakers and that prospect of rest was not unpleasant to me, for I am approaching tho border line where a man loves rest and quiet, and if this campaign was baaod upon local and transient Issues, I ehould not have been hero. If this campaign hod not brought out great and momentous questions of vast Importance to tho present and the future, I should have remained in retirement. Tho tools to thoso who can ueo them Is my motto and were it mere considerations of finance or State policy which were involved I should hove been content to leave tbo discussion of thorn to wiser ond obler heads than mine to those who are better versed In questions oi statesmanship than I am. Hut I have learned some things in the courso of my experience. There are some things which are hidden from the wise, and revealed to the simple.

Somo questions, as Carlyle says, settle themselves, and among them is the question of finance. The much doubted and dreaded question of specie resumption has settlod itself. All honor to the bravo and great statesman who stands ot tho head of the National Treasury. Applause.) Thanks to John Sherman and the great Repub'ican party, the nnonclAl credit of the nation is placed on a firm and endnn log foundation. It has been put on solid ground, high and unassailable, and la the matter of financial credit wo now stand in the front ranks of ths nations of the earth.

If the Republican party had done nothing else that would have been enough to earn for It the undying feratitude of the oountry. Under the action of that groat party, confidence has been restored, enterprise has boon, in a Urge measure, qulckoned and the dawn of a new and enlarged prosperity is soon all around the Amerloan horJion. The greenback phantasy haa been dashed to pieces and financial honesty has been assured. Applause. I have appeared before tbe American people la several characters In my time.

Firet as 0 slave, then as a fugitive slave, then asr a man, then as a man among men and then as a citizen' applausal. aye as a citizen of the greatest and grandest oountry (he world has ever Boon. TOU ABB NOT TJTPOBTUHATB In the grand part which you are to play In this canvass, in tho harmony and good fellowship of the Republican party and you are not unfortunate In tha babel, tho confusion and bickerings, of tbe great sectional party which is opposed to you. Your Republican couvontion has spoken through its i platform at Saratoga and It has spoken In accordance with the souse of all the right thinking men of the oountry, and you aro equally fortunate in tha honorablo names which you havo placed upon your State tiofcet. I believe thoy ore oil honorablo men, evory one of them.

Applause. Aionzo B. Cornell Is well and favorably known, not only In thU State but over tho whole country. He Btands without a blot or stain upon his character and his name is above suspicion. Ho is not like that Lord Granby of whom Junius spoke, whon he sold that hia charootor passed without criticism when it passed without observation.

Heiso man who improves upon acquaintance. There may bo abler men in tho State, but there are none who are better workers than he. His high character and business ability insure that he will be an honest and efficient Governor. The arrows of slander fly thick around him, but not one ot them has found a flaw in his political armor. Ho is called a machine politician, and If that means that ho Is the automaton or the tool of any oue else there is no truth Iu it, but If It means that ho is a man of ordor and method, working with a definite purpose, the assertion Is not far from tbe truth.

The glory of a man's belonging to a party Is not in tbe perfect manner in which he may work, but in tha principles which tbo party advocates. If it is vicious party no number of good men can save it if it is a good party no number of bad men can kill it. A party must bo ruled by tho majority, and when a man enters a party ho virtually pledges himself to be ruled by tho majority, It is necessary to the good order and good management of things that this should be so. But I did not come here to praise your candidates, for they do not need it. We have heard much of Ute of THE DIVINE BIGHT OF BOLTING.

I havo heard many things called divine in my tlmo. I have oven hoard Blavery, that hell blackened horrlblo thing, called divine, and I have begun to think that whon a thing becomes too bad to bo human It Is called divine. You are not only to eleot a Governor In this State, but you aro brought face to face with that other groat question. You are to deolde, if not who, what kind of a President wo shall havo for the four years following the term ot the present Incumbont. My interest In your November election Is In Its importance to liberty, humanity, progress.

I find I am in my old vocation, that which has consumed forty of tho best years of my lifo. I am' hero to Invoke the men of tho State of New York to bo true to their great record, to perfect tho grand work of reconstruction, to round out the work of the great civil war, to OBk them to see to it that tho Constitution of tho United States shall be tbe supreme law of the land, in every port of it. I am hero to ask you to make American citizenship honorable and respectable; that if a oolored man be clothed In it it shall insure him peace and safety in all parte of tho land. I echo the grand sootimont of your noble Senator, when ho calls upon you to make your cauvasB national in its spirit. At this election you must decide between Southern barbarism and Northern civilization, and not a mere contest between Republicans and Democrats, It is a contest betweon Northern liberty and Southern slavory.

You are fighting against tho ideas and institutions of the South, which the Southern ex Confederate urigadiors ore striving to force upon you in tho national councils. It Is tho great question as to who shall possess the land, who shall shape Its policy and work out its destiny. In tbo decision of these great questions tho great State of New York has commanding, if not a controlling influence. Sho is to decide tho question between the North and the South, between Northern liberty ond Southern Blavery. I know the great State of New York, and I know I can appeal to you with confidence.

I am hero in behalf of my people. She is too great to be small too large to be littlo. I remember that in 1872 thlB great State had the courage, was bold enough, waa far advanced enough to fling to the breeze on electoral Sag with a black stripe in It, This great State was bravo enough to put the name of a negro of Ered Douglas among its electors, and I remember that that electoral ticket was elected by 50,000 majority. When the Electoral College met in Albany the question arose as to who should bear the good news to Grant. Applause.

Tho State of Now York was bold and bravo enough, was considerate enough, to give the office to the fugitive slave to tho negro, Fred Douglas ond obout tho first face I saw when I stepped from tho cars in Washington was the calm, noble, imperturbable, granite foes of that lion hearted hero, Ulysses 8. Grant. Great applause and three cheers for Grant. But to come back to the questions which ore presented iu thia canvass. They are the same questions which, in Urge measure, led to tho civil war the old quostion of State rights.

We thought wo settled all thoso questions by tho war. by organic, ohangos In tho laws of tho Republic, and by what we supposed was tho honorablo acceptance by the South of (ho results of the war. Wo thought tho Southern people would abldo by the doclslon of tho court to which they appealed like honest men, but wo were deceived. The South came back not to live under ago it for their own ends, and to their own advantage. They are a queer people down thero, and do cot seem to be guided or governed by tho samo rules that control other people.

They borrow money and don't pay it bock. They contract debts and thon repudiate them, and then shoot you down If you presume to doubt that they aro honorable gentlemen. They have received oil and more than they could expect. They have been welcomed back with open arms, and yet there It not one Bpsrk of gratitude in their hearts. They refuse to show any gratitude for anything they have received, for any favor, whether large or smolL You ore brought foes to face again with.

SECTIONALISM that worst and malignant of oil evils which havo molested our country. It is the irrepressible conflict in a new shape, tbe aamo old snake in a new skin. It once struck outside of ths Union to gain a firmer grip upon the fonr million of bondmen which it held in Its toils, and it now scokato strike again Inside the Union to gain a firmer hold over tho four million of laborers under its control. It is tha same old slave holding spirit. The i same slave drivor's whip and plantation manners in the Senate and House of Representatives, For the sake of civilization In the South we must do by the ballots on the fourth of November whot we foiled to do with tho buUete of the war.

AppUaso, What section has brought up this old question7 Is it the North If tho North has erred at all it haa been in getting away from theso questions, in keeping tho ghastly skeleton of the civil war in the of the national oloset. Wo were In too muoh of a bnrry to shake hands over the bloody chasm, to put aside the memories of the war, to forget the terrible sacrifices which we had made for liberty, and In our hurry our work was imperfect. As soon as the war was over the war feeling at the North died out. We said let bygones bo bygones, let tho dead post bury its dead. The North never hated the South, and does not now.

It boa sought to forget and forgive, and in pursuance of this policy of peace and reconciliation no man has gone further or done more than the man to whom moro won anyone else the credit is duo of down that hall block and damning ion forever. Applause. When he took his seat tha commencement of his eight yean admlnls tration be eald, "Let us have peace," and ho sDcke In these fonr words the sentiment 1 of the great loyal heart of the North, four years ago DOta parues reiusca revive mo oia momoncs, even when every breoxo South were laden with. tales of. outrage find wrong.

We ridiculed Oliver P. Morton when lio persisted In up tho old memories ridiculed him Into his grave and refused to believe tha South' was anything ielso but juet, and upright An THIS POLIOS OF PEAOB was continued all through flranfu administration and was continues in even greater pogree Dy uayes, too endeavored (d gft'e this, eentlinent ao onward Itmnnlai.

Ho received their Senators ropresontaUvea at the White House and counseled with them, and eo fa as tofenflde to them in a great measure', tho distribution or his patronage south of Mason and Dlxon'a line, fie' has seeUhls mistake, and has taken another course, to which he hoe been driven hv ttmrrifnsal nf the.

What we JiBV'e to do.

Is to do our duty now, ond to leave the work which liununiahed to our children Burl our children. In conclusion, Douglas eald ha" appealed to tho people of Navr York: Stato, on behalf of hl3 people. They had never WSaaisloyaV and' during tha uetkest hours of tbe civil war, 6, QlorBd man was only friend the Northern bad In the ScjuiVf Weu tho boys in bluo were escaping from Anderson vllle and Southern, prisons, the or blaet man waa always the face of a friend, for a Una after tbe war all went weU, but now tho old tyranny ot. the Sonth breaks out again and tha black men ore not Bafo la their little homes. Hi called upon the great 8tte o.t New York so to epesi on election day that the South should understand that liberty and progress were not to be arrested in their course and that tho negro citizen should have bis rights under the low and Bio Constitution.

Mr. Douglas read tho greater portion of his speech from' manuscript and was frequently and loudly cheered. After he concluded the gleo club sang another plantation melody ond brief speeches were made by other speakers. Slxtb and Tcntb Ward Ilopnblicaua. A ratification meeting of the Republicans of tho 8lxth ond Tenth wards was held In Laluner Hall, Court street, near Douglass, last evening.

Owing to the flro In Whipple' factory, ths meeting was not called Representative Citizens Bally ing to his Support. His Nomination for Register Demanded by a Large and Influential Meeting Whjv bis Name Should Head the County Ticket A Sterling Democrat, an Up right and Competent Man and a Useful! Citizen An Address to the Voters Aj Spontaneous Movement Remarkable for; its Entniislastio Character. Everett HaU, orVfFultbn street, was crowded I lost ovenlng, with representative citizens favorable to the nomination of Coionel 'Thomas Carroll for Register by the approaching Couuty Convention. Mr. Felix Campbell, the President, ocoupled the chair and Mr.

Breen, the Secretary, iooorded the proceedings. Every seat in the hall was occupied and many of the gentlemen present were obliged to stand, while some were prevented by the immensity' of the orowd from ob talnlng admission to the building. The meeting assembled in response to invitations from tho appointed at a previous gathering. The greatest en thuslasm was 'manifested ond the reports received of the growing strength of Colonel Carroll iWere of the moBt gratifying description. LETTER PBOM JOHlt o'MAHONY.

After the reading and adoption of the minutes, the Secretary read the following letter from John O'Mahony, which was received with applause: Bbooklxn, October 1879. Felix Canipbell, Esq. Dear Sin In acknowledging the receipt of your circular in reference to the nomination of Colonel Carroll for Register of Kings County, I regret to Bay that tho stato of my health will not permit me tabe present this evening and participate In the adoptioffof the addresses prepared by your Committee. Nevortheloss, lam heartily with you in the just and perfectly democratic movement in favor of advancing Mr. Carroll to tho position which his friends claim he is entitled to.

Now, what are his claims? One of the speakers at' the meeting held last Friday evening in the Colonel's bo half summarizes thorn in words so terse and true, that I take ths liberty of quoting them and adopting them as my own. Ho said "Colonel Carroll had put the Democratic party in his debt by many yoarB of unselfish, conspicuous, effective service, and the Democratic party ought to bo glad of the opportunity now presented to get square with him. In what good cause has he not taken a part 7 The citizens of Brooklyn know that his name is synonymous with oponhandednesB and largeness of heart. When has there been. a.

Democratio, canvass to conduct or a candidate to elect that Colonel Carroll has not been first among the foremost in this city to assist in the work with his means, his thought, his presence and his personal exertions 7" This is high praise indeed from a man accustomed to measure and weigh evfiry word he utters, but it is tho solid truth. Should any othor aspirant for the office have exceeded this measure of services to the Democratic party, and that for, years back without fee or reward, besought to bo noihihatod and voted in, but if no such marine, found among tha. aspirants, then, in all fairness, ths nomination of Colonel Cairpll for Register, should bp fecef ul ly ana geuerodsly conceded to him. Trustingrthat the movement you are engaged lu will rosult in that way, and, from my. point of view, I.

cannot Bee ho.w.it should bo otherwise, I am, dear sir, yours very truly, J. O'Mahonv. EKTHTSIASit IN THE WAEDS. Reports from the ward, representatives relative to the progress of the movemvStielng called for, Mr. W.

A. Corr, of the First Ward, sold ho had been through the ward and he knew a good many Republicans who would vote for ColoneJ QarrolL Ho considered the Colonol as already nominated, end on election day the First Ward would give him the largest vote ever given to any Democratio candidate la the ward. Mr. Robert Hughes corroborated the 'statement of Mr. Corr concerning the First Ward.

Mr. Bernard McCaffrey, of the Fourth Ward, said he had found that ward very favorable to Colonel Carroll. Gentlomenwho had not been at the, polls in years had slgnflod their intention of coming out and working for him. The Fourth; Ward would give Colonol Carroll tho largest Democratic vote it had ever polled. i 't is' Mr.

MpDermott, of the Fifth Ward, sald'many of his neighbors had promised him that they would, not only vote for Colonel Carroll but would do altid their power to assist him. It might be Bald that, 8b far as the speaker had coversed with Democrats, thoy were unanimous, ly id favor of Colonel Carroll Mr. R. J. Lawlor, of the Sixth Ward, said he was proud to see that the Sixth Ward was represented In the meeting by somo of its most worthy citizens.

The sentiment in the ward was strongly for Colonel Carroll. Mr. Arthur Heanoy, of tho Third Ward, Bald that bo far as the Third Ward was concerned, the interosts of Colonel Carroll would be Bafe. Ho did not pretend to say tho Third Ward was entirely solid for the Colonol, but he would do all he couldfor him. Colonel Carroll was, in tho opinion of tho speaker, undoubtedly best man named for the office, and he would find he had riendB In tho Third Ward delegation to the County Convention.

It was well to bear in mind' that the men who do the work on election day were the bone and the hard fisted worklngmen of' the Democratic party. Unless they took a different part in, the fight than thoy had heretofore done, "it would not, amount to much. Colonel Carroll wanted them, and 'there Is no good reason why he should not have thetr'support. Mr. F.

G. Turner, of the Seventh Ward, repoHed rogross, and said that matters were working satisfac rlly in the ward. Mr. Oeorue Phillius. of the Seventh Ward, said he would do all in his power for Colonol Carroll's success.

All of those ho had an opportunity of seeing and they were hot a few had promised to Bupport Colonol Carroll, i Dr. Roonoy, speaking for tho Eighth Ward, remarked that so far as the Eighth Ward was concerned he could safely say that Its vote in the County Convention bo cast for Colonol Thomas Carroll for Register applause, and on election dajf the Colonel would get the highest majority evor gWen for a' county officer Mr. Logan, of tho Ninth Ward, said, in his opinion. Colonel Carroll was the first choice of the Democracy of the ward. Tho politicians up there had informed him that in obedience to THE EVIDENT DESIRE OP THE PEOPLE for Colonel Carroll's nomination, the delegation.

to the County Convention YrotUd nrobably bo for him. The speaker had converted Dennis May, a well known Democrat of the Twenty fourth Ward, wbo Bald that up there the Democrats heartily favored Colonel Carroll's candidacy. Mr. William Armstrong; of the Tenth Ward, said that the Democraoy there were unanimously in favor of Colonel Carroll. The Tenth would give him the largest majority, ever given to a Democratic candidate.

Applause. Mr. McDonald, also of the Tenth Ward, believed that in that locality Colonel Carroll would receive such a majority as Mb frlonda would wiBh him to receive. He felt they were all working for a good result. Mr.

J. F. Hennessy, of the Eleventh Ward, said many prominent gentlemen in' the ward would Indorse all that has been said about Colonel Carroll, His activity In behalf of the Colonel hod not been, confined to a particular ward. No man in the city was so popular as Tom Carroll. His time and money had always been at tho service of the Democratic party.

If he was elected to the oflico for which he was a candidate, more of the emoluments would go in tho cause of charity than would go into his own purse. Mr. MIohael Hughes, of the Twelfth Ward, said he had talked with many property owners and Worklng mon down there, and he had dund them unanimous for Carroll. Ex Fire Commissioner. Be'rnord GallagTier, of tho Thirteenth Ward, said that he lived in the Thirteenth, his political camping ground was in tho Fifteenth Ward, where there wbb a Btrong boom for Carroll.

Not a man had been spoken to by the speaker but seemed satisfied and pleasod with the proposition to nominate the Colonel. Republicans had 1 told the speaker that they would not only vote for Colonel CarrpU, but they would alBO got out and work for htm. His nomination would be satisfactory to a large majority of the people ot the Eastern District. Applause. Mr.

Thomas Cassln said a committee of the. Fifteenth Ward had waited on him during the day, and as they were to have a meeting that night they wore unable to be prosent. They roported a promising outlook in the ward. Ex Alderman Peter Totans reported satisfactory progress in tho Eighteenth Ward. Mr.

Charles B. Horn, of the Nineteenth Ward, said many manufacturers in tho Eastern District were in favor'of Colonel Tho working classes were also for him. Mr. Andrew MoLcan, of the Twentieth Ward, said ho had taken eomo oalns to acquaint himself with the sen timents of hlB neighbors, and ho believed no man could be presented by the Democracy at the coming. election who would poll so many votes on the Democratic ticket ob Colonel Carroll would In the Twentieth Ward.

Five Repnblicans, seeing what took place Friday night, colled upon the speaker, and said they were OBATIFIED TO SEE THE MOVEMENT in favor of Colonel Corrohj and woutd do all in their power to eleot him. Mr.1 McLean said in his ten years' experience in Brooklyn as. a journalist he never saw a nomination broached that carried with it so much favor as that of Colonel Carroll. Applause. Mr.

James Carey, of tho Twentieth Ward, Bald the Twentieth would do its duty by Colonel Carroll on the 4th of November. Mr. James N. Bhanahan, of the Twentieth Ward, said from what he had heard be had no manner of doubt at all that if Colonel Carroll was nominated he would bo elected. What, then, was to be done? Clearly to present his name to the convention.

But why should not they nominate the Colonel thero and then Hod they not the eamo right to nominate a candidate as any individual? The Chair Bald Colonel Oarrou.wonld not run unless nominated by tho Democratic Convention, Mr. Thomas "Mullen of the Twenty first Ward, said he had spent Bome hours: with, his, (jerman friends in the ward, where Coionel 'Carroll was' as well known as he was in the Fourth, He; Introduced Mr, Elsuffman, a Crerman gentleman, who resided there. Mr. Kauffman said he'waB sigreoably surprised to find among the Germans such a strong sentiment in favor of Colonel Carroll. The people were opposed to any close corporation business in politics, Mr.

Dions, In conversation with gentlemen ot the Twenty second Ward about Colonel Carroll's candidaiy, had met with favorable response. CoWnel.Caroll, if nominated, 'would be 'electee! He'waB thrklnd of a man they wanted at tho present time, whearieople, scrutinized their candidates more than ever before, Applause. Mr. George Washington Reed asked why any one should object' to Tom' Carroll 1When 'ai dollar was wanted for the Tom gaveit. It there was any work 'to done, bo was thb man to" do it.

He was an honest; competent, seW spsjabjlnjg man and would help the whole ticket. Mr. J. Huhnessy sold they wtotM the best'men for office, no matter where thoy: dwelt. Mr.

P. H. Kotchuin' presented a series' of resolutions passed by the Fourth Ward, young Men's Thomas Carroll Campaign Club which was organized lost night. Ho said they had. theouse at lieart 6il4 would; do all they could for the Colonel.

Messrs. Murtha and Stephenhagen sold there was a strong feoling for Colonol CarroU lp, the Sixth Word. Mr. M. Hennessy, of the Sixth Ward, said what Colonel Carroll had done was what to: bo his: duty.

The speaker recognized tho robust manhood of their candidate, who was in every' Way competent for the place. The Secretary road resolutions adopted at mcetlngB in the Eighteenth. Fourth end weA'f fifth wards, Colonel Carroll. AN ADDRESS TO CTTTZENS. Mr.

ttt value as an Advertising; Medium is tUvrvlorv apparent. The Misapprehensions of Fred. Doug laa. In another column we roport the speech mado by Fred. Douglas last night, under the auspices of the Seventh Ward Republicans of this city.

Mr. Douglas deserves and generally receives a eympathetio hearing, even from those who dissent from his opinions, because he speaks for a race who have few effective men of their own blood to speak for them because he is, apart from race considerations, a most creditable example of what any earnest man, however hard his surroundings, may accomplish in tho way of self culture and because he is believed to be a sincere man. For these reasons, at all events, the Eagle likes to hear from him, and now proceeds to show whorein it thinks he is mistaken. It seems to us that the following is not an accurate statement of the questions which the people of New York are to pass upon at the coming election At tUe election you must decide between Southern barbarism and Northern civilization, and not a rnero contest between Republicans and Democrats. It is a oontest between Northern and Southorn slavery.

ou are fighting against the idea, and Institutions of tho South, which the Southern ex Confederate WBdlcrB are striving to force upon you In the national councils. It Id tho great question as to who shall possoss tho land; who sholf shape its policy and work out its destiny In the decision of these groat questions the great State of New York has a commanding, if not a controlling iiuu enco She le to decide the quoation betwoen tho North and the BoutU; between Northern liberty and Southern The Eagle is very much in favor of "North "ern liberty" and is decidedly opposed to slavery in the South or anywhere else, and if anybody could show us that the election of Lucius Robinson would hurt liberty and stimulate slavery we should certainly endeavor to defeat him. On looking carefully over what was done at Syraouse, and scrutinizing tho antecedents of the men there nominated, we fail to find any enooiiragement given to slavery anywhere, but, on the contrary, a most marked determination to secure tho rights of the people against a variety of attacks. Nor have we able to discovor how the Vneri who are to be elected in November will have anything more to do with tho brigadiers of the South than with the brigadiers of Maine. Their whole official duty will be confined to this commonwealth.

If they be good men and true wo shall have honest, economical government, such as we have enjoyed for the past five yoars but whether they be good mon or not they will havo nothing to do with the enforcement of the law in any other State. Louisiana will be as completely independent of them as Ohio or New Hampshire. New York in our judgment is not called on nor is she at this time to decide any question between the North and tho South. What sho is called on to decide is whether certain corrupt and extravagant men shall be restored to power, whether a fearloss public servant shall be superceded by the nominee of all the 6elf seeking cabals in the State, whether the commerce of New York City is to be protected from the harassment to which it has been so long subject, whether our farmers are to be furnished with transportation for the products of their toil at reasonable rates, and whether tho millions of wealth that have been permitted to escape taxation shall bo made to bear an equitable proportion of the public burdens. It may be answered that these are subjects of so little importance that our people ought to ignore them and devote themselves, like a debating socioty, to the discussion of what is going on in other parts of the oontinent but those who regard these matters as of very great importance will hardly consent to having them put lightly aside.

Indeed, they are likely to argue that if New York iB to exert a beneficent moral influence on her neighbors she must begin by sustaining official integrity in her own borders. What sort of moral influence could flow from a restoration of the old Canal ring to power, a return to the ways of Tweed and a renewed indorsement of spoilsmen who fatten on the blood of labor and tho brains of commerce. Mr. Douglas does not seem to have thought of these things, nor.is there evidence that he has considered the gratification which corrupt men are sure to feol when they see him laboring to divert attention from their deeds to foreign affairs. Reduced to its simplest terrns, the proposition to ignore tho behavior of State candidates in a State election means simply that men shall not be held to nn account for their stewardship.

If this is to ba the method it will make no difference whether our officials are zealous and incorruptible or glaringly dishonest. Anybody can see at a glance that this isjthe kind of campaigning which Tweed would be sure to favor if he were olive again, as it is tho campaign which the surviving cronies of that chieftain doing their best to help along. Moreover Mr. Douglass, it seems to us, owes it to his next audience to explain with some detail how long it is since Tammany Hall, now in alliance with Cornell, became a bul work of Northern liberty, and by what process of thought he concludes that "Southern 'slavery" would be strengthened if a well known anti slavery and anti robbery man and distinguished supporter of the Union like Luoius Robinson should be elected. It will, we think, be found by Mr.

Douglas, upon inquiry, that their effort to divert attention from State questions is being made not bocause they propose to trouble themselves after November about Southern brigadiers, but because they fear an adverse verdict, if the people are permitted to give attention to the interests of this Commonwealth. Things can hardly bo nght when men, who are endeavoring to get control of the offices of this State, resolutely refuse to discuss its affairs. If the Administration which they propose to supersede had been bad, would they not show it If it had not boen conspicuously good, would they bo anxious to prevent the people from considering its qualities? If the public were to profit by trusting them, would they not make haste to show in what way The case of Mr. Soule, tho Republican candidate for State Engineer, ia an illustration of this. He was the tool of the old Canal ring, and he paid them $35,000 of the State mouey for removing one tree stump.

Anybody can see why Mr. Soule is anxious to havo the people persuaded that the issue this time is between "Northern liberty and Southern slavery" and not between integrity and rascality in the Stato of New York. However, leaving the irrelevancy of Mr. Douglas' discussion of national matters and party antecedents out of sight, it seems to us that ho Is less discriminating, less attentive to facts and less philosophical than he ought to be. For instance, he is plainly wrong in point of fact, when he says that "the old question "of State rights which led to tho civil war "has been raised again." No such question has been raised, and Mr.

Douglas will have to confess, as the jYw York Times confessed a few days ago, that the contrary statement cannot he sustained. At what convention has the doctrine been revived? By what newspaper is it advocated By what representative man has it been reaffirmed Let Mr. Douglas answer these questions before he again repeats his assertion of last night. The truth is that ho has on this subject taken the word of men who never permit the obligations of veracity to subdue a statement likely to secure for them the support of the unreasoning. In the following passage the orator has to epitomize as much of misrepresentation, misapprehension and falacious inference as could be crowded into the space They ore a queer people down there, and do not seem to be guided 01 governed by the same rules that control ottior people.

Thoy borrow money and don't pay it back. Tbey contract debts and then repudiate them, arid then shoot you down if you presume to doubt that they are honprabjo gentlemen. They havo received all and more than thoy could expect. They have been welcomed back vfith open arms, and yet there is not one spark of gratitude In their hearts. They refuse to show any grafitndo for anything thoy have received, for any favor, whether largo or small.

You are brought face to face again with sectionalism, that worst and malignant of all evils which have molested our country. It is the irrepressible conflict in a new shape, the same old snake in a new skin. It once struck outside of the Union to gain a firmer grip upon the four million of bondmen which it held in Kb toils, and it now seeks to Btrlke again inside the union to gain a firmer hold over the four millions of laborers under its control. It is tho 6nme old elave holdhig spirit. The same slave drivor's whip and plantation manners In tho Senate and House of Kopresonta tivc.

Here wo have a whple people accused of dishonesty, disloyalty and murder an accusation childishly absurd, for any man who iB at all acquainted with tho conditions of oven semi mvilized life knows that such elements ore reneciea in tms aaaress.

all top ether as thieves and thugs, and whoso representatives when intrusted with power plundered with undiscrirninating zeal. The Eagle believea thore will be as little of a solid South hereafter as there was in the past, when it is seen that there is no organization anxious to mako war upon them, and that the only issues in our campaigns are the rational differences of loyal, honest men concerning the administration of the country. Does Mr. Douglas expect to see the people of the South indorse his account of them by voting the Republican ticket Is there any Northern man who would voto the Republican ticket if by so doing he had to set the seal of approval on a libel on his own manhood, on the good name of his country and on the decency of his fellow citizens The South will not be "solid," and cannot ba' solid, against reason, but it is certain to remain solid, as the would, against threats, depredation and villification without a historical parallel. Mr.

Douglas made a reference to the condition of the colored people down South, which we may recur to hereafter. Suffice it to say that the Eagle, while countenancing no wrong to any man, whether black or white, would have Mr. Douglas remember that no other race ever attained to all the privileges of citizenship with so little exertion on its own part as the negro has. Tho Mayoralty A SuKfreation to tUo Democrats. Quite a large number of oitizens have organized themselves into olubs, with the single purpose in view of urging the name of Alderman Robert Black upon the party managers as the Democratic candidate for Mayor this Fall.

It seems that thore are but two candidates named in connection with this office, this year, by the Democrats James Howell, the present Mayor, and Mr. Black. The friends of Mr. Black think that he is a moro available candidate than Mr. Howell, and while Mr.

Howell may not be ro eleoted as his own successor by his party, if he should be a candidate, Mr. Black would be oertain to succeed so his friends claim. The supporters of Mr. Black gave three reasons for his nomU nation, and all these reasons torn upon Mr. Black's "availability." Of the three published in a recent issue of the Eagle, thi, second is the most frank, and it is as follows His nomination will reunite the numerous opposlnff elements of the city, since he is personally popular, and his record is untarnished, and not even clouded by the mistakes which made by others have lessoned their In.

fluence and rendered them unavailable in a race where so much is at hazard. The issue as presented last Fall shows how much is to be depended upon a movement, whatever its merits, or whoever its champion, Ahich has only a portion of the mosses as its' advocates, and a resolute, determined and organized set of plaoa holders itB oppononts. The case of Mr. William Burrell needs nn further mention as an Illustration savo to add that it would ovidently appear unwise as a party measure to repeat tho experiment of renominating any man. with similar disadvantages.

We have no hesitation in saying that there is a great deal in the view of the case here presented, Mr. Burrell, aa the Democratic candidate for Controller, was defeated last Fall, and by a gentleman who was presented by the Republicans as their candidate, and who was almost unknown in Brooklyn. Mr. Burrell was charged with supporting Mayor Howell in his efforts to reduce the cost of our local government. In doing this, it was claimed that Mr.

Burrell voted to reduce the pay of policemen, firemen and school teachers. What Mr. Burrell did aid in doing was, in reducing the expenses of the several departments of the government, leaving it to the heads of these departments to apportion tho money given to them. Mr. Burrell had no power to reduce the salaries of school teachers, and he did not attempt to exercise any such power.

He thought, perhaps, our public schools cost too much, and largely because a great deal of money is spent, and wasted on fancy studies of very little use to the pupils, while involving a large cost to the taxpayers. But, waiving all this, it is but right to say that the policemen, firemen and school teachers held Mr. Burrell responsible for a reduction in their salaries, and they resolved to oppose him at tho polls for doing this. The three classes of public stipendiaries named openly opposed Mr. Burrell.

They were determined to punislshim, and when ho was beaten at the polls, the classes we have named rejoiced in having won a great victory." We have no doubt, after the last election, the place holders came to the conclusion that the fate of Burrell would be a warning to others that no public agent who desired to remain in office would ever again be so foolish aa to reduce the salaries of those who are paid by the public. It is truo, the tax levy of the City of Brooklyn was reduced last year by nearly a million dollars, and it was thought that this fact might possibly count for more for Mr. Burrell with tho tax earners than the opposition the tax consumers. This expectation was not realized, however, for, as we have said, those who make their living off the public won a splendid victory last Fall. Mr.

Black's supporters now appear to recognize the folly of antagoniz ing special interests on behalf of the voters at large. As the tax eaters do not want to be interfered with, and as they form a portion "of the masses," the supporters of Mr. Black are satisfied that the determined and organized place holders" will not oppose Mr. Black, while it is broadly intimated that the fate, of Burrell will await Mayor Howell if he should be a candidate for re election. There is, we admit, in view of our past experience a great deal in this argument.

It is almost unanswer 1 able. The tax paying and self supporting voters will not bo flattered by tho estimate made by the politicians of thoir strength and public spirit but the weight of argument, tested by experience, soems to be altogether on tho side of tho33 who think that the most available candidate for an office in Brooklyn is the man who stands best with the place holders. In other words, it is safe to antagonize the self supporting voters, but not the organized and datermined men whose names appear on tho city's payroll. Perhaps, under all tho circumstances, the best thing to bo done would be to call the police, firemen and school teachers together and let them indicata their favorito candidates for office. Inasmuch as theES classes are said to control our election, they, ought to nominate the candidates.

We throw out this suggestion for the benefit of the Democratic leaders. Election Kosults. The Ohio election iaa settled nothing but the present political condition of the State.
