'We,1 copy that portion of Fernando
Wood's speech on that occasion
which has reference to the extrava-
ance of New York officials, and ilacing therresponsibility of the same
upon' the proper persons :
'SPEECH 01" MR. WOOD. Mr. "Wood, when the enthusiasm
which greeted him had somewhat
subsided, proceeded to address the .meeting in substance as follows: I Fellow Citizens: This immense gathering which has assembled inside and outside of this building is a demloLstration which I look upon with pleasure, and accept as a sure harbinger of success. You have grthered in and around this hall with no other object or principle than pubiic good; in this view I accept it, and appreciate it the more. Two weeks ago, in response to the unsolicited action of leading men in this hall, I stated the grounds upoi) which I eutered this canvass. I reviewed the " short comings" of the present incumbent, and showed hia incapacity, if not his indisposition, to relieve the people of the oppressive burdens under which they now labor. I presented a tabular statement of the an nual expenditures for thirteen j-ears, and showed the enormous increase under him, and proved by the charter that he had the. power, and it wis made his duty,' to prevent this a duty and a power which he had utterly failed to exercise, and hence was. responsible.; I charged that, having oeen nominated by the ring, he was necessarily its creature, be- ' ause the men who compose that immaculate body would not trust any man in the position of Mayor who would not do their bidding. I further stated that he had made no effort to protect this city against-unjust and improper legislation at Albany; that he had failed to evince the requisite energy and courage, required to meet an enemy so insidious and s'o unseru pulous as that which had imperiled the rights and interests of th's city. I quoted from the public records and laws to show that no moneys can be drawn from the City Treasury without a warrant sigued by the Mayor, and showed that I had resisted successfully an effort to obtain possession
of a portion of the public funds. That a mandamus was issued by the Supreme Court, and that I defeated it in , the, courts. These allegations were made in this hall oyer t.vo weeks aeo. How ha3 he answered them? What i3 his defence to the charge that the taxes have been enormously increased, and that he, md he" alone, is responsible for it? In his labored defence of himself, made at the Cooper Institute on Wednesday night, he attempts to show th.it the State Legislature, and not himself, has spent the money. Hs attempts to put the whoje. increase on the Joard of Commissioners, aad none on himself and associates of the Tan many ring. According to his figures the municipal departments uuder his management have spent but about four
milli ons, while the others crea-id by the Legislature have spent the remaining twenty millions.. Afn-r giving an erroneous tabular statement, he concludes by sayi&g that lie is only chargeable with the balance, amounting to about four millions ot uoi'.nrs. From the resistance made bv mS
against that mandamus of the Supreme Court, it was proved that an absolute veto power was vested in the Mayor against the improper expenditure of the " pubiic money. According to the. Comptroller's report lor the year 180',. the total of the city expenses for tbat year was SlO.Sri'J.'JOl. - Legislative ex

13-1 io, the Department of Public Charities and Correction, $'1,0C7,SS9 OS; the City Law Department, 91,020 44; the City Courts, $176,600 19; the Public Schools, $2,454,327.54; for miscellaneous disbursements, $2.260,735 70 making an aggregate of municipal expenses of $10200,785 70. This is for the expenditures of the city alone, every dollar of which is disbursed under the direction of Mayor Hoffman and his subordinates. The Street Department, which is peculiarly managed by his co-ordinates of the " ring," spends over $l,6U0,00O. Thn is no small sum to pass through; the hands of Mr. Tweed in one year. Doubtless it has all been honestly expended. It is alleged, however, that articles furnished lor that department for public buildings are charged about four times the original cost. If this is denied, I have the name of one of the largest furniture manufacturers in this city, that he sold an article for $50, which he saw subsequently charged in the detailed statement of the expenditures of the city at $ ISO. And this is but a sample from which the management of the city affairs may te illustrated. The Mayor's office gets nearly 50,000 of this sum. Undtr my mayoralty term it never exceeded $13,000. My own salary was at first but $3,000 and never over $5,000, and without any additional perquisite of any kind whatever. Mayor Hoffman
now draws several salaries a salary as head of the Musical Department; another salaiy as head of County Department; another salary as member of the Sinking Fund Board; another salary as a member of Street Cleaning Board ; and pther requisites of which the public know nothiDg, all of which is in direct, palpable (Violation of the city charter. The tenth section of the charter rof 1857. eays .that 4' Any person holding" office under this1 charter, who shall receive any fees or emolu-. ments beyond his salary, shall be deemed thereby to have vacated his office." Ancr ' again, the '. fortieth section provides, "That:aiiy. officers of' the eityj government j who shall willfully violate or evade any of the provisions of the charter or Etermit any other person to do so, shall e deemed guilty of a misdemeanor."
I make no 'comments upon the acts of Mr. Hoffman in connection with these provisions of the law. I leave it to others to draw their own conclusions.
But the aggregate above presented of
city expenses does not include the expenditure made by the Supervisor's ring, under head of " County Appropriations." In 1866 these amounted to the modest su'm of $5,517,675 55, less the State taxes, making an aggregate together of $16,000,000, instead of $4,000,' 00, as falsely stated by tke Mayor. Hoffman telis us that his associate Sweeney has performed an act of the greatest public good. That Peter Bismarck Sweeney, one of the Tammany ring, has made a sacrifice by paying into the public' treasury, or promioing to pay 25,000 of the public deposits. . I)o you know that the average deposits to the credit of the city in the Broadway Bank is over two millions of dollars? I do not mean to say lha at one time there ale two millions of dollars there, at another time only two thousand, and at another time nothing at all. put I mean to say that there is at all times jn thatibank an average deposit of two millions to the credit of the city. Now, tie interest upon' that sum at 6 per cent, is $120,000 a year, and it is a remarkable fact that takes from one account to pay another account. For. instance, there is the sinking fund acco.unt.aod the city and county accounts, and', he transfers from one account to another, making one short; then he, as City Chamberlain, goes to the Comptroller and says,' our sinking account is overdrawn, and the Comptroller ' thereupon : issues revenue bonds, and he puts them 'on Wall Street, issuing ' them with six months to run, at six and seven per cent, interest. This is thiown uipon iWall. Street in anticipation of the tax not to be paid till October or November ensuiiig. He deposits these t6 make that account good, and when that account is short there will be to the credit of the corporation one or two millions of dollars. Mr. Hoffman says that Sweeney paid $25,000 on interest account. I deny it. I declare boldly here that Mr. Sweeney has not paid one . shilling on interest account. And I further dedeclare thai he is liable to be removed from office for a total disregard for his official duties in overlooking the charter, which directs that the city accounts shall be deposited in three banks, while he deposits only in one bank. Cheers and cries of " That's so. ' Again, in reply to the charge that he is responsible for -11 the expenditures ot the public money, (because no money can. be drawn from the public treasury without his sig-" nature,) he says that if he refused to do so, claimants would suethe corporation and put the city to costs. This
is a weak and absurd reply, Accord iug to this,' he would pay la fraudulent claim rather than stand a lawsuit. It an individual makes an unjusrdemand against another, it must be submitted to rather than incur the trouble and expense of a defense, and this is Mr. Hot: man's defense of himself for giving his signature to warrants by which to take from the city, treasury hundreds of thousands of dollars belonging to the people, by .fictitious and lraudu'.ent ciaiiiis. Cheers. The absurdity of this pretext proves, conclusively his complicity. A public
officer, acting in pursuance ot' law and authority, cannot te cotnpel'- dti submit to wrongdoers, lie is jlicel there as the guardian of the people's rights and interests, and if by wilfull neglect or want of nerve he fails to discharge this trust, he is guilty, and cannoteseape the responsibility. Having thus failed to deiead ' himself against the accusations thus publicly made, he attempts to shield himtef by assailing others; he calls me hard names and uses " Billingsgate " as familiarily as the other members of the City Hall ring. (Cheers.) He shouts lustily of what he intends to do with me next Tuesday, but he had better not halloo till he is out of the Woods." Not content with belaboring me, he assails Mr. Bennett, of the Herald, charging that the opposition of the Herald is in consequence of hia opposition to the widening of Ann Street; alleging that he was opposed to that improvement on grounds of public good, because it would involve considerable expenditure of money. I do not know how this is, having been in Europe at the time that subject was agitat;d. I am not informed sufficiently to criticise the truth of his averments, but I do know in another similar case his course was of an op- ; posite character. I refer to the ex tension of Church Street, and we all ' know Chureh Street. Hire . r ! e rs 1
auu laugmer.j j.nis proposed improvement was to open Church Street Irom Fulton to Morris Street, a distance of 1,800 feet. For the purpose of defraying the expenses of this short distance, the Commissioners desired no less a sum than $3,000,000,
If this Convention is a fair index
and exponent of the conventions to be held in niae other Southern States, it is risking but little to say that their intelligence, honesty and ability, will soon silence misrepresentation and abuse."

"and they propose to. extend the area of assessment over the whole city below Fourteenth Street, by which to raise it. Every house and lot below. 14th Street was to be assessed to open- - a - narrow street" - 1,800- feet. There are .over 14,000 owners of property within this! area who were to be thus taxed for the benefit of City Hall ring.- It is known large awards were made for old and almost valueless building, the 'title, of which had but recently changed hands, before said awards were made. This' swindle was so palpable an outrage that one of the commissioners refused to sign the report. ,and ; public, sentiment was so. strongly excited against it that even the Common Council was compelled to ,pass a resolution rescinding the" original resolution authorizing the
extension. Cheers. Now,, what did the virtuous and honest Mr. Hoffman
do? Were his sensibilities shocked as in the Ann Street case? Did he hasten to approve the resolution adopted by both Boards of Common Council, and thus show his desire to protect the public interests and fourteen thousand tax-payers from an unjust imposition? He did not. But he vetoed this resblutiou,thus refusing his sanction, letting the swindle go on. All the influences which the aggrieved tax-payers could bring to bear upon him were insufficient to overcome his objections. A burly representee of the Street Department had sufficient power to. counteract and overcome the remonstrance of fourteen thousand citizens. Now, therefore the inferences to be drawn from these facts are that Mr. Hoffman is as great a pretender, as a proper custodian of the interests of the people, as he is unable to resist the malignant influences which surround him. His good intentions, admitting them to exist, are of no avail, as against those who use him for. their own purposes. (Cheers and laughter.) His friends claim that he is " a respectable man." I think the facts conclusively show that he bears the same relation as "a respectable man " to the "'Tammany
ring as a beautiful figure-head uoes to a piratical craft. Depression In New England. Accounts from New England represent business to be in an unusually depressed condition; The demand far nearly all kinds of manufactured goods is diminishing, while there is an increasing difficulty in obtaining a market for .supplies on hand. Employment, "is consequently becoming scarce, and a great many mechanics are out of work, and at the present time it is probable that the majority of the factories in the New England States are not working mire than three quarters time. The ship building interests are particularly depressed. The Maine ship yards are nearly all idle. In Newburyport, Mass., the ship, building trade, which formerly constituted! the.chief business of that flourishing ftpwn is now, next to nothing. , The few vessels that were launched during, the last year were built at a loss. It is the same in nearly all the formerly. busy hives of New England. The manufacturers have generally done a losing business, and sale3 have been light. Mechanics earn poor wages, and while labor and property &re Jess productive, the cost of living,, has, not fallen to a corresponding degree. -Boston . Journal; 1 The Alabama Convention. The 3Iontgomer3T (Ala.) Correspondent of the" Cincinnati Gazette thus speaks of the personnel of the lleeonstruction Convention i session there: "''The delegates are one hun ired in number, and of these sixteen are freedmen. As I looked at them , I could not butrefleot that I: beheld a magnificent exhibition of poetic and retributive justice for these men now occupy the place where sat but seven years ago the proud, defiant Confe'd-
i crate Congress that made slavery tke
keystone of their arch of Government. As to the general aspect aud bearing of these men, my first impression was also my .last. , A more earest. serious,' and orderly deliberative body I have never seen, and this impression is confirmed by the general admission. in Montgomery, that they .arc a much better-looking set of men than. the Alabama Legislature. Of the. eighty-four whitj. twentytwo are Northern men, who have
taken up their residence in the State since the war. The remainder are all old citizens. I made special inquiry as to their various callings and social position, and found that among them were nine members of former Alabama Legislatures, eight present or
former Judges of various Courts of
the State, twelve 'lawyers, seven officers and sixteen non-commissioned officers and privates of the rebel army, six physicians and a number of planters, merchants, &c. The President of the Convention is the Hon. E. W. Peck, for forty years a resident of Tuscaloosa, formerly Chancellor of the State, recognized as possessing one of the first legal minds in the country, and a man of unblemished purity of character. Among the rebel officers is Major Semple, a lawyer by profession, and a graduate of Cambridge Law School, who for some time commanded the artillery in Cleburne's division, and distinguished
nimseit at OhicKamauga.
