A GRAND DEMONSTRATION I
"Wednesday being the date of Governor Baker's appointment at Sullivan, the noble band of .Republicans in that county determined on making it a demonstration of more than usual interest, and the success which crowned their efforts must lie clie«ring in the highest degree. a
The delegation from this city was not large, but with constant accessions at the several towns on the road, the train
Re paid his rcspects to tha recent N«w York Convention, and explained to his Democratic hearers how they got ueither a greenback platform nor a groentack candidate but they were sold oat by the eastern bondholders and rebel otEcers of that convention, who foistod upon them Seymour, the aristocrat, for President, and then went beyond the Mississippi for a candidate for Vice President, Frank Blair, but a short time since a ranting, shrieking abolitionist, and a man who on that very spot called the Democrats of Sullivan a pack of hell-hounds. He riddled the Democratic platform, and showed that every charge therein made against the Republican party had been voted for and upheld by Frank Biair. He satisfactorily explained the payment of the bonds, and dissipated the demagogical arguments of the opposition.
His remarks upon the question of government taxation wer« most happily rendered. He showed that very few farmers and laboring men paid any burden of government tax, while under the plan proposed by the Democratic platform, to pay according to vala«, the poor man would pay for the necessaries of life the same, in proportion, as the rich man for hia luxuries. He presented such an array ot fact and figures as to be unanswerable
In conclusion be promised, if elected to Congress—of which there can be no doubt—never to lose sight of the laboring man. and by his votes aad influence labor to advance his interests. ,.r
After a glowing eulogy on our great standard bearer, he proposed three cheers for Ulysses S. Grant, which were given with snch a response as to make the very woods ring. Three cheers were given for Major Carter, and a recess was taken for dinner, the bands meanwhile playing "Yankee Doodle" and "Sail Colombia."

filled. Tout's Band accompanied the delegation and furnished splendid comic on the way. On the arrival at Pullivan, the town was found in commotion, the streets filled and delegations coming in from every direction. That from the west was led by the Merom Brass Band.-=~ Union men were jubilant and Democrats astonished at the immense outpouring.
A tall flag staff, bearing a large copy of the Stars and Stripes, and a streamer with the names of Grant and Colfax, had been planted in the Oourt House yard a few evenings previous, and was the only large flag staff in town.
At about nine o'clock a procession was formed, consisting of a Battallion of the Fighting Boys in Blue, and the several township' delegations in wagons, and marched out to the grounds. Tout's Brass Band led, and the Merom Brass Band, with several martial bands of music, were placed at appropriate distances along the line.
The ground selected was a beautiful grove just north of the depst. A tastily decorated stand was erected on the very spot on which Frank Blair madea bloody* abolition speech in 1860.
From 4,000 to 5,000 people were on the ground. We heard larger estimates, but the above figures are about right. It was indeed a real feast for the Union people of benighted Sullivan to gase upon such a loyal assemblage.
While the Bands played, the audience was seated, and Sewell Coulion, Esq., the President of Day, introduced Majer WW. Carter, our candidate for Congress, a8 the first speaker. The Major had not expected to be called upon to speak at any length, but awaiting the arrival of Gov. Baker he proposed to fill up the epace and give his opinions of the great and vital issues now before the country.— He remarked it was the first time, with one exception that he had come before an audienoe as a candidate, and then proceeded with a most convincing argument that on the success of the Union purty depended the perpetuity of the Union. His references to the Democratic party were to the leaders, not the masses who hare blindly followed them. He claimed no extraordinary qualifications for the election to congress, but the one proud title— loyalty!

TERRE-HAUTE, INDIANA/ AUGUST i2rl§68.«-"-BR^
majority of the audience had the pleasureof meeting or hearing the gallant Major, and upon every hand were hoard ejacu lations of surprise and pleasure at the masterly argument, convincing logic and withering invoctives hurled against the ramparts of the traitorous, rebellious, lawdofying party ho is now battling.
The dinner on the picnic style was spread everywhere upon the green grass throughout the woods—under the shade— and, a generous hospitality was extended to all to partake of the abundance spread out on the clean white sloth?:
Dinner over, the people with appetites satisfied, bnt stil yearning for the glorious mental repaet jiot vet ended, again assembled at the stand. Lieut. Isaac M. Brown introduced as the next speaker, Capt. E. E. Rose, of Lawrence county, Elector for thin district, who in tin brief time allowed him before arrival ot the train with Gov. Baker, liteerally impaled the Democracy in an argument convincing, conclusive and unanswerable.
The up train brought Governor Baker, from Evansville, who took the stand at two o'clock, ami held his audience enchained for two hours. His remarks embraced almost the entire range of the questions usually discussed at the political meetings of the present canvass. The Governor spoke with gmat aarnestnosp His arguments were well put together and strong. His facts were so arranged as to convince the most skeptical of his political opponents, that he wa? meeting the issues fairly and squarely, and had no desire to dodge any responsibility or misrepresent in the smallest particular. His review of the Fourteenth Amendment was plan and candid. In t'ie same spirit did he dissect and analyze the New York Platform. His exposition of Wade Hampton'* revolutionary plan4: and the equal taxation resolution was somewhat merciless yet complete, and evidently convinced the people there assembled that neither of those propositions harmonizes with their interests. They much prefer leaving taxation as it is—the wealth and luxuries of the country bearing the burden of it.— His demonstration that scarcely any of the farmers now pay any taxes to tbe Government, while under the proposed plan of the Democrats they would bo taxed on everything they had, according to its actual value, made them wince, and they will be slow to vote snch a burden upon themselves.
The ontire proceedings of the day, conducted so orderly and without the least jarring incident, is of such a character that the good Union people of old Sullivan may well feel proud of it. The_ people assembled, not for the sole purpose of making a display of numbers, but for the sake of calmly listening to the truth,'and of hearing the old worn out, time eaten arguments, rid. died through and through, and no better men could have been selected for the job than Major Carter, Capt Rosy and Governor Baker.
The people are thoroughly in earnest, and will do a good work towards redu» cing the disgraceful Democratic majorities in old Sullivan at the coming elections.
First and Second Olilo DistrictsTHE Republican District Conventions which met at Mozart flail, Cincinnati, on Wednesday, dispatched their business promptly and well. The nomination of Hon. BEN.TAMTN EOOI/BSTON, in the First District, was anticipated by Hverybody. It was made by acclamation, and was an appropriate recognition of the faithful services rendered by Mr. EWLESTON in Congress since hia Aral elation in 1861 He should ha elected by aa increased majority.

In the Second District, teveral good names were before the Convention, each of which had warmsupp.•iter.*. The successful candidate, Hon. JOB E. STEVENSON, had not sought the nomination, but, on the contrary, had repeatedly expressed his disinclination to being named as a candidate. lie is well known aaan able and successful lawyer, an.l ono of the most eloquent and effective speakers in the West JTo will make a good canvass, and, with the united and cordial support of the Republican voters, will handsomely carry the District,

Serenade to Governor Baker.
Speeches by Governor Baker. Major Carter and Gen. Wagner.
Music, Hilarity, and a Good Time Generally.
The Republicans of this city were most agreeably surprised Wednesdayjevening by the arrival at tie Ten a Haute House of a trio of distinguished leaders in the Union caustv
Govornor CONRAD BAKEH, General GEO. D. WAQNKK and Major W. W_ CARTER came up on the excursion train from Sullivan and were necessarily detained here several hours, waiting for an Eastern train.
On learning of their arrival the "Fighting Boys in Blue" at once decided to give them a serenade. Several hundred Of "the boys" met at the G. A. R. Hall, Tout's Band was sent for and put in a prompt appearance. The "Fighting Boys" dispatched the business of the meeting promptly and fell into line. The procession marched down Main street to Third, counter-marched and proceeded to the Terra Haute House where a large crowd had assembled. The Band halted on Sevonth street in front of the hotel and the crowd took up a position oh the street and adjacent lot. After a few appropriate airs had been played, Governor BAKER was called for and made his appear' ance on the balcony with Gen. CHARLES CRUFT, who presented him to the audience.
The Governor was somewhat hoarse from having spoken for several hours duing the afternoon, and begged to be excused from making anything like a formal Bpcecb. Ho gracefully thanked his friends for the compliment tendered him and proceeded with a brief but most comprehensive statement of the issues before the country in the ponding catn« paign. The Governor was frequently interruptscl with applause as his tolling hits and racy anecdotes followed each other in quick succession, and the entire audience heard his conclusion with regret and a hope that he would soon fulfill his prom? ise to address the citizens of Terre Haute in a more extended discussion of the issues of the canvass.
Gov. Baker was followed by Major W. W. Carter in a short but most admirable speech, which fully demonstrated his ability to successfully meet the "great champion'' whom the Democraey have pitted against him for the Congressional race.— He is not only a Bound, logical reasoner, but has the happy faculty of illustrating his arguments with pertinent anecdotes related in the most effective manner.— Major Carter was followed by General George D. Wagner in a speech of nearly half an hour, in which he reviewed the action of the New York Convention and touched up the sore places in Dan Voorhees record with a cataplasm of lunar caustic. The exercises closed with music and an almost infinite amount of patriotic cheering for the National, State, District and County tickets. The procession re-formed, marched down to Fourth street and, after another round of cheers, for the different candidates, -'broke ranks" and dispersed. Tbe whole affair was entirely impromptu but was splendidly successful.
ChlTalrons Amnsement.
Some of our exchanges are cruelly attempting to poke fun at that peculiarity of Southern "society" which manifests itself in a fondness for bogus tournaments and sham knighthood. This Is all wrong, gentlemen of the press. You ought to know that tho getting up of tournaments is a special and most valuable Southern privilege! What though the Queen of Love and Beauty is, moat probably, a siuiff-dippnr, whose 6kin can stand the nicotine iniluanco without becoming very yellow, much better than her sisters?— And what matters it if the Knights are the la-'.y loungers at the cross-roads' grocery, who have neither gentility, nor breeding to recommend them, nor accomplishments beyond the drinking of whisky Haven't they aright to dub themselves with tremendous names, with "words of learned length and thundering sound,"' such as "Knight of the Glorious F.ra," Knight of the Beatitudinons Confederacy," "Knight of the Lost Cause," "the Knight.Unknown,'' etc?
Does it mar the beauty of the arrangement, or detract from tbe glory of "the chivalry" if everybody knows that the Knight of the Lost Cause, was a "bomb proof daring the war, and managed to stay at home out of danger, and that the "Unknown Knight" is nobody but JAXZ JOKES, of Bollrag Swamp Or whose business is it if the "Knight of the Glorious Era" can't write his title, and if the other fellow employs a "nigger'' to indite his amatory epistles, and read the replies thereto? -W/
Who dose not envy the joy and glory of tbe proud Southrons assembled by thousands to see these knightly fellows get on horseback, and endeavor to poke the ends of long poles through rings suspended from cross-bows, riding fall tilt at them with fearful rapidity? That is what they call a tournament I And who shall find fault with the tastes of the chivalry!

But I have been caught up by the overwhelming tide which is bearing us on to a great political change, and I find myself unable to resist its prassnre. You have also given me a copy of the resolutions put forth by the Convention, showing its position upon all the great questions which now agitat9 the country. As tho presiding officer of that Convention I am familiar with their scope and import as one of its members I am a party to their termB. They are in accordance with my views, and I stand upon them in the contest upon which we are now entering, and I shall strive to carry them out in future wherever I may be placed in political or private life. I then stated I would send you these words of acceptance in a letter as is the customary form.
I see no reason upon reflection to change or qualify the terms of my approval of the resolutions of the convention. have delayed the mere formal act of communicating to you in writing what I thus publicly said, for the purpose of see* ing what light the action of Congress would throw upon tha interests of the country. Its acta since the adjonrnment of the Convention show an alarm lest a change of political power will give to the people what they ought to have, a clear statement of what hat been done with the money drawn from them daring the past eight years.
Thoughtful men feel that there have been wrongs in the financial management which have been kept from the public knowledge. The Congressional party has not only allied itself to military power' which is to be brought to bear directly upon the elections in xiany States, but holds itaelf in perpetual session with the avowed purpose of making such laws as it shall see fit in view of the elections which will take place within a few weeks. It did therefore not adjourn, but took a recess to meet again if its partisan interests shall demand its reassembling.
Never before in the history of our country has Congress thus taken a menacing attitude towards its electors.
Under Its influence some of the States organized by its agents are proposing to deprive the people of the Tight to vote for Presidential Electors, and tho first bold steps are taken to destroy the rights of suffrage. It is not strange therefore that thoughtful men seeing such action as the proof that there is with those who shape the policy of the Republican party motives stronger and deeper than the mere wish to hold political power that there is a dread of some exposure that drives them on to acts so desperate and so impolitic. Many of the ablest leaders and journalists of the Republican party have openly deplored the violence of Congressional action and its tendency to keep up discord in our country.
The great interests of our Union de* mand peace, order and a return to those international pursaits without which we cannot maiBtain the faith or honor of our Government.
The minds of business men are perplexed by uncertainties, the hours of toil of our laborers are lengthened by the costs of living made by the direct and indiroct exactions of the Government. Our people are harassed by frequent exactions of tax gatherers.
Without distinction of party there is a strong feeling in favor of that line of actiou which shall restore confidence and shall lift off burdens which now hinder and vex the industry of the country.
Yet at this moment those in power have thrown into the Senate Chamber and Congressional Hall anew element of discord and violence. Men have been admitted as representatives of some of the Southern States with the declaration upon their lips that they cannot live in the States they claim to represent without military protection. These men are to make laws for the North as well as the South. These men who, a few days since, were seeking as suppliants that Congress would give them power within their respective StateB, are tovday the centrollera of the actions of these bodies. Entering them with minds filled with questions and demands that Congress shall look upon the States from which they come as in conditions of civil war, that tho majority of their population embracing their intf?l« ligence had been treated an public enemies, be kept up at the expense of the North, and that there Bhall be no peace and order at the South save that which is made by arbitrary power. Every intelligent man knows tbat they not only owe their present position to disorder, but that every motive springs from the love of power, of gain, of a dssire for vengeance, prompts them to keep the South in anarchy. While that exists they are independent of the wills or wishes of their fellow-citizens. While confusion reignB they are the dispensers of the profits and the honors which grow out of a government of mere force.
These men are now placed in positions where they cannot only urge their views of politics but where they can enforce them.
When there shall be admitted in this manner from the remaining Southern States, although they will have in troth no constituents, they will have more power in the Senate than majority of tbe people of this Union living in the line ot the great States. In vain members oi the Republican party protested against the policy that led to this result. While the Chiefs of the late rebellion have submitted to the result of the war and are
now quietly engaged in useful parsuits tor the support of themselves end their families, and are trying by the force of their example to lead back the people of tbe South to the order and industry not only essential to their well being but to the greatness and prosperity of our com* monity, all see that those without ability or influence have been thrown by the agitations of civil convulsion into positions of honor, of profit, aod are striving to keep alive the passions to which they owe their elevation, and they clamorously insist that they are tbe only friends of oar Union.
Proof of that can only have sure foundation in fraternal regard and a common desire to promote the peace, the order and the happiness of all portions of oar land. Events in Oongreas since the adjournment of the Convention have vastly in» creased the importance of a political victory oftbOM who are seeking to bring

is Horatio Seymour's acceptance of the Democratic nomination for the Presiden °y
„L1 UTICA, August 4, 1868. GKNTS When in the city of New York on the 11th inst., in the presence of a vast multitude on behalf of the National Democratic Convention you tendered me its unanimous nomination as their candidate for the office of President of the United States, I stated 1 had no words adequate to express my gratitude for the good will and kindness which that body had shown to me. Its nomination was unsought and unexpected. It was my ambition to take an active part, from which I am now excluded, in the great struggle going on for the restoration of good government, of peace and prosperity to our country.

Ac-1 back economy, simplicity and justice in^
ip
the administration of our national affairs-
Many Republicans have heretofore clung to their party who have regretted the extremes of violence to which it has run. They have cherished a faith that, while the action of their political friends'' have been mistaken, their motives have, been good. They must now see that tho*. Republican party is in that condition, that it cannot carry out the peacifu! policy, whatever its motives may bo.
It in a misfortune, not only to a country but to a Government party ifsoli, when its action is unchecked by any form of opposition. It has been the miafortuno of the Republican party tbat the event* of the past few years have given it so much power that it has been ablo to shackle tha Executive, to trammel the Judiciary, and carry out the views of tho most unwise and violent of its .members. When this state of things exists in aty party it has ever been found that tho judgment of its ablest leaders do not eon trol. There is hardly an able man who has helped to build up the Republican organization who has not within the past three years warned it against its oxeos?e» who has not been borne down and forced to give up his conviotions of which tho interests of the country call for, or if too patriotic to do this who has not been driven from its ranks. If this has been the case heretofore what will be its action with thw new infusiou of men who, without a decent respect for the views of thosu who had just given them their positions, beginning their legislative career with
calls for arms and demands that-State» shall be regardod as in a condition oi civil war, and a declaration that they are ready to degrade the President o: the United United States whenever they can persuade or force Congress to bring forward new articles of impeachment.
The Republican party as well as W6, are interested in patting* some check up on this violence. It must be clear to ov ery thinking man that a disposition o.C political power tenns to check tho vioence of party action and assure the peace and good order of the country The election of a Democratic Executive* and a majority of Democratic members to the Hou3e ef Representatives would not give to that party organization power t» make sadden or violent changes, tut would serve to check these extreme measures which have been deplored bv the best men of both organizations. Tbe result would most certainly lead to that peaceful restoration of tha Union and roestablishment ef fraternal relationship whfch the country desres.
I am sure that the best men of tbo Re* publican party deplore as deeply as I do the spirit of violence shown by those re cently admitted to seats in Congress, forthe condition of civil war which they contemplate must be apparent to every right thinking man. I have no mere personal wishes which mislead my judgment in regard to the pending election. No man who has weighed and measured the duties of the offioe of President of the United States caw fail to be impressed with the cares and trials of hit? who is to meet its demands. It is not merely to float with popular currents without a policy or a purpose, on the contrary, while oar constitution gives just weight to the public will, its distinguishing feature that it seeks to protect the rights of minorities, its greatest glory is that it puts restraints upon power, it gives force and form to those maxims and principles of civil liberty for which the martyrs of freedom have struggled through ages. It declares the right of the people to be secure In their persons, houses ana papers, against unreasonable search and seizures, tbat Congress shall make no law respecting the es* tablishment of religion or the free exorcise thereof or, abridging the freedom of speech or of the press, or the right of the people to petition for the redress of grievances. It secures tbe right of a speedy and public trial by an impartial jury.— No man can rightfully enter upon tbe duties of the Presidential office unless he is not only willing to carry out the wishes of the people expressed in a constitutional way, but is also prepared to stand up for the rights of minorities. He must be ready to uphold tbe free exercise of religion he must denounoe measures which would wrong personal or home rights or the religious conscience of the humblest citizens of the land. He most maintain, without distinction of creed or nationality, all the privileges ofaa Amenoan citizen.
The experience of every public man who has been faithful to his trust teaobeft him that no one can do the duties of the office of President unless he is ready not only to undergo the falsehoods and abuse of the bad, but to suffer from the censure of the good, who are misled by prejudicei and misrepresentations.
There are no attractions ia such positions which deceive my judgment, when I say that a great change is thepublic minds.
eause and to their candidates, I may with propriety speak of the fact that never in the politics! history of our country has the action of any like body been hailed with sach universal and real enthusiasm as that which has been shown in relation to the position of the National Democratic Convention. With this the candidates had nothing to do. Had any others of tboso named been selected this spirit would have been perhaps more marked.
The zeal and energy of the conserve tive masses spring from a desire to make a chingo of policy, and from a thought that they can carry out their purposes. In this faith they are strengthend by the co-operation of the great body of those who served in the Union army and navy during the war. Having given nearly sixteen thousand commissions to the offiicers of that army I know their views and wishes. They demand the Union for which they foaght. The largest meetings of these gallant soldiers ever assembled was held in New York and endorsed the action of the National Convention in words distinct with meaning. They called on the Government to stop ia its policy of hate, discord and disunion, aad' in terms of fervid eloquence demand restoration of the rights of tbe American people. When there is such accord between those who proved themseivee brave aad self-secrificing in war, and thoee who are thoughtful end patriotic In oounoll, cannot doubt we shall gain, a political triumph which will restore oar Union, bring beck peace to our land, and give us once more tne blessings of a wise, economical and honest government.
