During the autumn of 18G9 there arose a lively contest in the old Board of Supervisors over the location of the Normal School. It had been temporarily established, the preceding year, at Blue Island, but, when the question of a perma nent site came up, largo offers were made by the people of Englewood, who fairly outbid the Bluo-lelaud people, and ilunlly secured the prize. When the Board mat in the following March, charges of corruption were freely made against ,T. J. Kearney, its President, and it was assorted that ho had been bribed to use his influence in favor of Englewood after having expressed him self for Blue Island. Tho subject was referred to a committee, which made a thorough investi gation of tho charges, ouo of which \yis that Bernard G. Caulllcld, tho owner o! property near Englewood, had given Kearney a lot to gaiu him to vote for the location at that particular place. Tho examination of Mr. Caulfield, and his affidavit, as published March 10, 1870, ore as follows: MR. D. O. CAULFIELD EXAMINED Tour Committee have Mime then put iu possession of a copy of tho deposition of Bernard U. Caulllcld, taken, subscribed, ami sworn to, tho 6th day of March, 1870, before 11. w, Bridge, in tho injunction n.ae of the Northwestern Manufacturing Company of Chicago against tho Board of Supervisors of Cook County, in tho mutter of the letting of tho heating apparatus in the Insane Asylum of Cook County, which U as fol lows : Aud thereupon tho complainant edict! aa a witness 33. G. Caulfield, and ho belli;; first duly sworn to testi fy the truth, the whole truth, and nothing hut the truth, and interrogated by tho complainant’* solicit ors, deposed an follows: Q,—What is your name; p.gn: roaidoneo and occups tlou. A.—Bernard G. Caulfield; 11; Chicago; attor ney-nt-law, Q.—Do you know J. J, Kearuoy, ono of the members of tho Hoard of Supervisory 7 A.—l do. Q.—Tleaito slate whether or not you had given or paid to eaid Kearney any consideration for his voting or giving his iuilncnco in any measures according to your desires 7 {Objected to on tho ground of Its call* lug for Irrelevant testimony.) A.—No, air. tj.— I'icuso state whether or not you over gave or paid (o Mr. K. anything in consideration that .Mr. K. would volo for or use bis influence in favor of the lo cation of tho Cook County Normal School. (Objected to.) [Note— Witness desires that It shnll appear on rec ord that ho Is hereforo the examiner in obedience to a subpoena served upon him.J A.—No, sir, Q.—l’leaso etnlo whether you over gave or conveyed to Mr. Kearney any property or thing of any value under any circumstances; and, If eo, stala the time and all tho circumstances connected with such gift or conveyance fully. (Objected to.) A.—l never con veyed to Mr. K, any property lu consideration of any volo that ho gave or influence that he used lu tho Hoard of Supervisors, in reference to any mutter; but I did convey to him a lot after ho had taunted mo with attempting to got out of a promlro by Buying It wok a Joke. 1 conveyed tho lot tolhlm that he might not haveil in his power, either truthful ly or falsojy, to say that I had ever backed out of my word under tho subterfuge that 11 was given in a Joke. This was tho only consideration that 1 had hi point of fact in making tho conveyance, and tho circumstances of tho transaction are as follows: MR, CAUI.FIKI.D* VERSION. Sometime hint spring, or summer, I went, ono after noon, lu passing tho Court-House, into the olllco of Daniel O'Hara, Clerk of tho Keoonlcr'a Court, I there found Mr. Kearney and Mr. O'Uara, and some four or six persons standing outside tho mil. Who they were I do not remember, out when I entered tho room Mr. Kearney, ns I recollect, remarked: “You are tho very man I wanted to see," in a loud, distinct tone, and immediately said: “ Don’t you own nomo property at Englewood7” At that lime Englewood was not familiar tome. I said, *• Where is Englewood 7” Ho replied, “At tho Hock Idoml Junction,” I told him " Yea,” 1 bad some property at or near tho llock Island Junc tion, Ho then said to me, tapping me, ns I remember, on tho shoulder (I want It understood that lam swearing according to tho very best of my rumllootlon about tlus conversation which la to enroll*), " Well, now, I want to talk business,” lu an equally loud and dis tinct tone, eo that everybody beard him in the olllco, *• There is n question about tho location of tho Normal School, and it lies between Ditto Island and Engle wood. The location of Hilti school at Englewood would bo of great benefit to the property about there, and 1 cun control (I think It was cither flvu or six voles ho said, in tho Hoard of Supervisors). This would bo enough to locr.to tho school at cither plaro. At thin point either ho or Mr. O’Hara said, but 1 think it was ho, "Yon could well atVord to give a lot to havo it located at Englewood.” I replied, supposing tho whole thing to bo a Joke, from the surrounding circumstance*, and from the smiling, oif-hand manner in which tho conversation was hold, lu the same oil-hand and laughing manner, "Certainly I can.” What olso occurred in tho oiflcc ul the limn I don’t remember.- Whatever I had to do, I dill it mid left the oJllcc, regarding tho wholo matter ns a Joko. Several clays after this, I no- Heed In tho morning papers something about tho Nor mal School being located at Englewood. I don’t know whether it was in tho published proceedings of tho Hoard of Supervisors, or whether it was some edi torial notice or comment; but this was tho first intima tion that 1 had that Uio school was located thc-ro. Homo eight or ten dayu after observing this notice 1 mot Mr, O'Hara on Washington street, lu front of tho Chamber of Commerce. Wo stopped mid talked ns wo tumidly do when we meat, ami before wo parted ho said: "Hoh Kcnrnoy been to see you 7” I said, “Not What about 7" ••Why,” said he, "aboutthat lot.' 1 "What lot?" said I. "Why, tho lot ho was to get for locating lb# school at Engle wood,” "Why,” Isold, " I ncvtrr promined him any lot for any such purpose.” Baldlio "Don't yon re member (be conversation you had in my olllco about ItV” 1 replied, " Why, I remember tho conversation that occurred there some tlmo ago, about tbo locution of tbu school at Englewood, but I regarded alt that as a Juke." "Well," said he, "Kearney him come to sco mo about that lot, and ho is coming to see you, and you will find out that it ain’t any Juke.” " Well,” said I, "ho in a great scamp If ho undertakes to gel u lot out of mo on whut occurred in your oltlce,” and wo parted, About two or llireu weeks after tills, I should think, Air. Kearney canto to my olllco one day; my clerk was standing at ono of the deal's lu tho room writing, and Mr. Kearney look a scat. After talking a f«w moments about sumo indifferent matters, ho remarked, in his usual loud lone, “ Well, Mr. Caulfield, I Imvo cornu to sen you about Hint lot,” I know, from what Sir. O’Hara had said, what lot ho hud reference to, but I raid to him, " What lot 7” Hu replied, " Why, that lot at Englewood." I Haiti, " What lot at Englewood 7” " Why,” snld bo, " the lot that you wore to give for tho location of tho Normal Bchnol nt Englewood.” " Why.” said I, " Kearney, I was not to give any 10l for tho location of the fcliuol at f.ngluwwd. " Don't you ro tnombnr,” said lie, “ tho conversation wo hud in Dun u’Unra’s oilicc, when you agreed to give a lot if tho i.i’lifiol was located at EnglewoodV” I mid, "Yen, I nm'ioober that conversation • but,” eaid I, •• you coc- Ululy duu’t claim a lot from vibal occurred there, for CHICAGO. TUESDAY, OCTOBER 27, 1874. I regarded that whole thing as a Joke.” •• Oh I" said he, '• that's n proltj way to got out of 11In a louder (one null: “After having hgreod lo give a lot, to back out of it on (ho pica (hat it was a joke.” I immediately replied, H No, nlr, I don’t back out of anything under the sub terfuge that it won a Joke. I nuvur promised you any lot; 1 never agreed lo give any lot, except In that Jok ing maunor; hut you ahull never huvo it to any that Harney Caulfield made a promise nnd backed out of It on the ground that it was given as njoko. If you claim a lot under these circumstances, take it} but bear the responsibility of H yuursolt. I will give you (lie lot If you want It.” I don’t remember what was said In reply, but ho Indicated that ho wanted It. I asked him then what he meant by n lot—whut size. Ho snlcl, " The ordinary size, 25 feel front.” I told him I had no such lota iih that near tho Junction. My properly was not subdivided In that way; but I would give him a lotof that description In Drndvrclt's Addi tion, Just off Milwaukee avenue. Ho asked mo the value, location, etc., of thu lot, I bad a IIUIo pint in my drawer, nnd took it out nnd showed him wtmt lots I had there, end pointed out to him the one which I would give him. ilo tried lo got mo to do something better. 1 told him no; that wad nil 1 would do. Then there was some other conversation about in different matters. He was there in the otilco for some time. As ho went out, lie raid be would go nud look at tho lot or inquire about it. I saw nothing more of him. I think, tor (on days or two weeks, Ho thou came into my office, and my recollec tion is that ho still wanted mo to do Romntliing better. 1 told him, “ no.” Finally ho said, “ Well, just have a deed of it made out in tho nnmo of my wife,” telling mo her name, Elizabeth or Mary: whatever it was, 1 said, " No, Mr. Kearney, I will do no such thing; a deed has to he made out in your nnmo, for you shall takn the responsibility of ft." Ho mild, •• Well, well,” or something like that, and went off afterward. I had the deed made out, aud some eight or (on days after (ilia he called in aud risked me for the deed, 1 took it out of the drawer and gave It lo him. Ho opened (ho deed, and, finding no stamp upon it, bo said: ” Why, you haven’t put a eUmp upon It.” I euld, '• No, sir, you put tho stamp on it yourm-lf; I shall not put & stamp on U; I have been swindled oat of enough.” Ho laughed ami went out, I Lave given, above, sub stantially the conversations as they boar upon this particular subject, I do not pretend lo say that I have In nil instances used (he very words which took place,but in some of tho instances I have. I stated, in reference lo tho conversation which occurred In Mr. 'O'Hara’s office, that I wan glviug it in accordance with my best recollection. The reason that I did that was 1 Ov'tuiHu Mr, Kearney has heard of my speaking of this mailer unreservedly, nnd ho some mouths ago men tioned the imbjuot to me, and said that the first con versation in O’Hara’s olfice took place after tho vote had been taken in reference to the location at Engle wood. I paid so little Attention nt tho time of (he con versation, supposing it all to be n Joke, nnd not know ing anything that was going on In tho Hoard of Super visors, In reference to this subject, that I am not able, positively, to sweur that this conversation oc curred prior to tho vote being taken; but 1 am strongly of the impression (bat the conversation took place prior to the taking of the veto, and my testimony, therefore, is given with retcroncc to that impression. Q.—Please sluto whether or not Mr. Kc*trnoy over paid you any consideration for tho lot conveyed by you to him. as above stated. A.—No, sir. Q,—State whether or not Mr. Kearney took from you (he deed made nut by you for said lot, nnd whether ho had tho same recorded, If you know. A.—Ho took the deed from me, but I do not Know whether ho had it recorded or not. Q.—State whether bo has over returned, or offered to return, said deed to you, A.-—No, air. Q.—l’lcnse state whether, hi any of the conversations bad by you with Mr. Kearney, as shove delivered, bo stated to you, or gave you to understand, that bo bad been promised, or expected, other reward or prollt from other parties for 'securing the location of tbo Normal-School ut Englewood; and, If so, please state what be eald. (Objected to,) A,'—At the time the deed whs given to him Mr. Kearney said: “Weil, after nil, you are (ho only man that bus stood up. Thorn is old S'W.nff-Bo (mentioning his name),who bus promised mo a lot more; every time bo aces mo bo turns away from me,” I remember (his from the fact that after bo said this it occurred to mo that I bail rather given him tho lot than have him euy such a thing of me. Q.—Please stale .whether, if you remember, bo made use of any such expression as that this was nil ho bud gotten out of the locution of tho school, or words to that effect. A.—No; hi> didn't say that. Q.—Please state whether at any time after receiving a deed of tho lot from you Sir. Kearney ever spoke to you of the Irnnwuitiim os having been a joke, and if so, pleaso state what occurred ? A.—At tho time that Mr. Kearney hod tho convcrwulou with mu, and when he staled tho convj.flalU'U which b id occurred in Mr. O’Hara‘s office (wj were again in Mr. O'Hara's office), I went in and again mot air. Kearney and one or two olbura there aid Mr. O'Hara. I don’t remem ber bow the conversation esmo up in reference to this mutter. Wo hud quite a dincussiim, bo contending that it occurred after, and I that if must have occurred before, tho vote. He, during tlm conversation, re marked, *• Well, tho whole thing was u Joke, anyhow.” ** Well," sidd I, “ Kearney, it was a .toko; ami Just carry tbo joke out, and nmko mo tbo deed to that lot back again." Ho laughed, and said, “ No. sir.” Q>—Hid ho ever ro -onvoy the lot, or any part, to you, or givo you any equivalent for it ? A.—No, sic. Q.—Have you over needed nr conveyed any other lot or piece of land to Mr. Kearney than that men tioned In tbo übovo-rofurmi-to deed ? A.—l don’t tliiuk I have. . 2.*—Do you remember tbo description of that lot, ami cau you nluto about Its value at tbo Unto It was convoyed to Sir. Kearney i A.—l don’t remember the exact description.

The colored Republican votora of tbo Soath Division hold a mooting last evening at 610 Stato street. A sidewalk gathering discussed tbo sit uation boforo tbo abaombly met in regular moot ing, and, if one may judge from tbo character of tho discussion of tbo “gutter club," it is certain that tho Republican patty will Jobo a good proportion of tho colored voto this fall. It was noticeable that tbo oldor ones coun seled adhesion to ttio Republican party, and tho youugcr men believed in secession, if tbo inter ests of tbo colored people demand it. The nrgu monts of the former wore, tho war and tho poor ohauces of recognition by tho Opposition parly ; tho arguments per contra wore that political un rest has marked the career of other nationalities in their continual striving fur that portion of tho ofTices and patronage thoy considered tliov wuro entitled to. Tho colored men seomod to bo po litically wedded us to an idol; thoy bowed down and woralnpon, and accepted very humble pie. Tho Republican party had clone nothing for them for tho past two years. Tho reply of tho oldor ones wan “You must stoop to conquer wait, and in timo wo shall bo in possession of our just rights. These mon spoko with earnestness and confi dence in their opinions. They were well-spoken men, too, ami aro no doubt powerful as dilectors of opinion among their cluhh. Their words, therefore, aro of dire importance to tho Repub licans ; they mean commensurate recognition or revolution, and, as a consequence, a loss to tho party to which thoy havo boon so long attached, and it seemed indissolubly, which it cannot well afford. J. E. Carter, of tho Third Ward, ono of tho young men referred to, roitoratod theso views m a conversation hold with him by a Tuiiionb reporter, and ha added that ho did not regard tho present organization known as tho Republican party as being identical with that which existed live roars ago. Ho sot down tho colored voto at I.IOU. Tbo regular meeting was called to order about 8:80 p. in. by William C. Phillips. Ho Hinted the object of tbo mooting, and called upon tho.ie present to elect a Chairman. Konry Hradford was chosen. Mr. Bradford (hen introduced N.i». jacohs, member of tlio Logisluturo of Mloslaaippl. Ho made u rumbling, disjointed address. Ho appre ciated the pnvllodge of addressing his brothron, lie had lived in the South for the laid eight yearn. , Tbo White League vtuh agitating the country, Learning that but one day remained for registry, be urged his hcarors to do their duty in registering, and besides in voting and Booing that their friends voted. Ho be lieved that political, parties aro about to change. One party was trying to prove that roconulrnotion was a failure; that party was the Democratic party. They tried to pre vent tbo emancipation of the slaves, and since tbo bondmen bad been sot free they caid the in sult of tbo war bud boon a curse instead of a blessing, lie epolio of taxation in the .South, and ancribod its apparent largeness to tbo fact that all' which had boon destroyed by the war bad to bo loconstructod, and ■IOO,OOO men sot free had to bo educated. Taxatiou therefore could not but bo temporarily large. Hut it was not duo to tbo nml-adminlmiation of tbo Jtopub lienn party. The White Lcogurors woro only the Ku-Ivlux fu another gniuo. All the men appoint ed as oflloo-holders under the X'ropidonov of An die v Jaoksoa wwo on Infamous class. If slavery had not boon abolished tho condition of tho colored man to-day would bo llttlo bettor than it was boforo tho War. Tho present Govern ment bad dono tho colored race tbogrontcat pood that was desired. White men hold fast together to their principles and colored men must imitate them, and stand by tbo party which has given thorn tho rights and privileges thoy enjoy to day. This Government was never on a sounder basis than it la now: Its financial system was tho truest that could bo devised. Ho was not afraid tho Republican party was going to bo wrecked so long ias it had stoorod through so mnuy storms without injury. Ho spoko of tho Opposition party, calling it tho party of many titles, and compared it to tho man who tried to steal a ilsh, but was detected because tbo tall of tho fish was visible, Tho party whom tho wotild-ho thief wanted to victimize Imparted ad vice as to how the attempt would ho success ful, saying: “Next timo, bo sure vou tako a shorter fish, or como provided with a longer coat.” So tho Opposition party must find shorter fishes or longer coats uefore they could steal tho colored vuto. Mr. Jacobs illustrated hid arguments in condemna tion of tho Opposition party by narrating some vulgarly witty stories, which produced the real, genuine negro guffaw ; tho Ride-shaking,mouth* spreading, tooth-showing laugh, such as tho “ end roou ” in mlusirol troupes give an Idea of. Tho Democrats by their record wore proven to ho no friends of tho colored men. Groat meas ures of vital interest to the colored mon wore still ponding boforo tho Government, and it there fore bolittcd all colored mon to vote for tho Re publican party. The only guarantee o£ success for them was, in his opinion, vigilance, energy, and tho display of as much interest in tho gov ernment of the country ns white mon tako. JOHN JONES was tho next speaker of qpostnoy. Ho began lua address in a tow, sweet positively en chanting, an insinuating, fascinating tono of voice, as though ho would say. “ Qontlomen, 1 am tho nicest follow in tho world.” As ho warms to the subject, tho voico grows louder, and by aud-by tho • volume of sound given forth is absolutely startling. Look at him, —his mouth is opon to an alarming oxtont, displaying rows of grinders of formidable calibre : Ids oyoa nvo blazing and wild looking: his hair eooms to stand on end; and his nock, rod nnd swollen, makes tho boholdor fear an explosion. Ho said ho folt serious, that is anxious, on occouut of tho responsibilities resting upon his raco. Ho then entered upon a review of tho political his tory of tho past forty years and at 10 o’clock ho had disposed of only two years. Has Jones got through yot? THIRD CONORESSrONAXi DISTRICT. A mass-mooting of those who aro iu sympathy with tho Opposition party was hold at Thiele mann's Theatre, on Clybourn avenue, near Divi sion street, Inst evening. Tho scats on the main floor were all occupied, and tho gallery was Ilko wino crowded, many being obliged to stand up. There must have been 1,800 people in the build ing. Kino-tenths of the audience were Gormans, only a few Irishmen and Americana being pres ent, few of cither of the last nationalities living in thnt-porUon of tho city. Mr. Adolph Schoon iugcr presided, and introduced MU. A. C. HEfUSO, who spoke for noaiiy an hour, denouncing tho Republican party for its corruption and advocacy of stringent temperance laws to the curtailing of personal liberty. Ho had helped form that party in 1854, unci remained with it until fanati cism became its chief foundatlou-stono. Ho. however, had not loft it; it had loft him. Bo publican Legislatures in many of tbo States had passed temperance laws, nud ho had personally gone to Spmigflold to use his influence with tho Legislature against fanatical statutes. His plead ings wore in vain; his warning was unheeded. Tho, gaimttek ; ~liftd been- thrown to tho Germans; would they take it up? [Chocrs.] lie then gave a brief sketch of the woman’s crusade in this city, saying that tho Aldormou who advocated the cause of tho “ fa natics" wore now miming on tho Bepublican ticket for office. Ho spoke particularly of Avery Moore ; nud, in tho same connection, brought in Judge Cradwoll, who, ho sniff, if elected, would do his utmost to destroy tho Suridav-concorts and social freedom of the Gormans. Mr. Har vey. of the Twentieth Ward, received a passing notice, and was characterizeda “cold temper auco man." it was asserted bv some that this question was settled. ’Ho denied it, and, iu support of his denial, road from tho Evening Journal a call for a tem perance eouvontiou to bo held iu tbo First Methodist Church .this ovoung. [A voice: “Will Beecher bo there?" Laughter.] Mr. Hcsiug rejoined that Beecher and, Colfax ought to bo sent for [renewed laughter]; nud that if tho “muckers" could bo “educated" to drink a glass of beer they would not bo “guzzlers," The speaker then took up the corruption of the dominant party, saying it was gaining ground at a fearful rate, and it was a part of tho duty of tho 4,000,000 Gormans in this country to help bring about a reform. Mon who failed and paid 25 cents ou tho dollar and pocketed tho 75, should not bo hold up as an ex ample of probity on account of buying a pew in a church; men convicted of bribery must no longer bo public loaders, and bo received with open arms by thousands ou their return homo from Washington. “Think of it,"said ho, “Rich ardson, tho thief, appointed a Judge.” [Laugh ter.] President Grant was not forgotten. Mr. Hosing thought it straugo that a man who a few years ago went to Washington a “poor soldier" should now bo worth $100,005. Was ho a worthy successor of Wash ington, Jefferson, Jackson, Lincoln? Uo then road extracts from tho Blno Laws of Connecticut to show what was possible if the “ fanatics ” obtained full control of tbo Govern ment. Those absurd laws had to bo put down by organized effort,.which was essential at tho present time to keen inviolate tho personal liberty all loved so dearly. Iu conclusion, ho made a strong appeal to his hearers to stand by tho Opposition, , aud to vote for its nominees. [Cheers.] THE lION. J. V. LE MOYNE then camo forward, but was too weak to say much, and tho little ho did say could bo heard but a low foot from tho platform. Ho said ho had not cotno to make a speech, because ho had not tho required strength, but merely to sco tho people by way of a friendly salutation. Sukhois engaged in tho same cause should know who their comrades woro. and look them in tho face. Ho had boon told tUnt Ills opponent or some of his friends had said that it mado no dif loronce about tho Republican puny,—“ only voto for Charley Furwoll." Ha could not descend to any sucli scramble for oiHce, and only accepted the nomination because bo be lieved tho rouolutions adopted at Springfield contained essential principles, which should bo incorporated into tbo laws of the nation, and for that reason ho had determined to lend his assist ance to thoso who woro opposed to tho Republic an party. [Choors.l If tlio contest descended into a more scramble for oillco between some body else and himself, ho would not bo in bis present position. If any present woro satisfied with tho ruling party, ho did not agroo with them. It bad, lie believed, seriously injured tho country. Ho did not propose to give tho rea sons why; thoy had already noon stated moro fully than bo could utter them; and it was timo the Republicans woro relieved of responsibility, and a now sot of mon put into their places—men who wnro honest, and would take care of the people’s momn'. [Cheers.] Speeches woro also mado by Emlol Diotzsch. Gen. Cameron, Francis Agnew, and others, and tho mooting did not break up until a lato hour. THE WOIUCTNGMEN IN COUNCIL. The EugUuU-suoaklug workingmen of tbiucHy hold a mooting Inst evening at St. Crispin's Hall, No. 77 South Dearborn street, for the purpose of discussing tbo (pinUlloationß of the candidates for Legislative positions, ami selecting tbo best mon to bo supported by tbo workingmen. The ball was quite well lilted, about fifty persons be ing present, a majority of whom belonged to tbo Typographical Union, ami the rout to the Com munists. Tbo mooting was organized with Mr. I*, il, MoLogan os Chairman, ami J. il. Thurston as Secretary. am. a. w. ncsoiißß was the first speaker, lie said the workingmen bud never a bettor opportunity to shupo legisla tion than at present. Therefore tbo working men should use their bout efforts to advuucu tbo cause of tbo workingmen. un. jonu m’auuffk followed with un exceedingly violent Oomraanlu lie harangue) advocating the demolition of cap- J ' s>j Ital ond tv, <p/y, and advising war against general, It could easily bo por colvoil Ajority of those present wore not In acco/'**’ % / his views, and ho was aovernl times caueti-Jb order, ns ho was not speaking to tho subject for which tho mooting had boon call ed. Mr. MoAulifTo, however, claimed to bo speaking to tho point, as ho was odvooating tho candidates Dominated by tho Communists last Sunday. Mr. Jjoahy thought the movement enrao rather i, wore all in the field. All they could do now was to pick out tho host mon from the tickets of the two pottles. It was all non sense to support tho independent workingmen’s ticket, as It could not bo elected. Mr. A. 11. Brown thou introduced tho following resolutions: three from each Sen atorlal District bo appointed to Interrogate tbo candi date of each party for the General Assembly as to their views regarding the act known as the Conspiracy act or the LaSalle Black law, and also aa to their feel ings In relation to each legislation as may bo of special interest to tho laboring classes. Itwtvrd, That tbo Committee aa a whole aro author ized to act In such a manner r.s In their Judgment will Hiibsnrvo tho boat i uterus is of tho workingmen, to call mootings, nominate candidates who aro trustworthy whore none aro satisfactory, mid support such as aro sniUbiu, to fill vacancies should there bo any, ami act as a Campaign Committee. MU. JOHN MADDEN claimed to have boon a workingman since ho wan 7 years of ago. If tho workingmeu allowed things to go on as they had. and did not take matters into thoir own hands, they would soon bo worse off than those in Europe. Working men wore starved to death; they wore tho slaves of capital. Ho had had a rough tlmo of it on account of those cursed capitalists. They must go ami vote for thoir own man, oven if they were defeated. Laws m favor of tho work ingmen must bo passed. Ho had over 100 cases in his hands whore workingmen wore swindled. Tho rich becamo richer and tho poor poorer with every day. Lot them go to tho ballot-box and work for tho workingmen only. Mr. McAulilto wanted to amend Mr. Brown's motion that tho Oommittco bo instructed to con fer with tho candidates nominated by tho work ingmen's party Sunday. MB. F. A. HOFFMAN, JR., being called upon to speak, said chat ho was tho happiest candidate in tho city. JIo did not bother his head whether ho could bo elected or not, like tho others. Ho knew ho had no ohauco. Ho might just as well run against Emperor William or Queen Victoria. Ho could not sup port tho motion of interviewing tho various can didate*. all of whom would pledge themselves to anything and anybody in order to got elected. Fault was found because tho workingmen nom inated uono but foreigners. They would have gladly nominated Americans had any of them Joined tho party. But, unfortunately, tho Americans had always refused to join. It was not necessary to oloct their ticket. If they only showed some strength tho ruling party would hobnob with them-and mako concessions in or der to got their voto hereafter. COL. HOWARD made a speech condemning tho Black law. show ing that but ono Chicago Representative had voted, against it, and that one, Mr. John 0. Haines, was a candidate for tho State Senate now. Every workingman should voto for him. Of tho nominees of last Sunday ho know but ono man, Mr. John Madden, who was a moat excel lent choice. There woro enough workingmen to elect Mr. Madden. Mr. Brown’s resolutions woro then adopted. Tho following Committee was then appointed, in accordance with tho resolutions: A. 11. Brown, John Madden, James Gorman, C. H. Krouse, William Kennedy, John McAuliffo, and I*. 11. MoLogan. MR. p. n. m’logak introduced tho following resolution, which, after a short debate, was adopted: WitEURAH, The time has come, In the political his tory of the Ht&to, when the laboring man, upon whose suouldcra more thuu upon any other rests the machin ery of government, should apeak out at tho polls; therefore, bo It ' Jtcjiolvid, That a Committee of one be appointed from each Legislative District in Chicago, to serve its a Committee on IleglHtrntion, ami that snld Committee use all honorable means to secure tho registration of every man entitled to vote who sympathizes with labor ing men. The following are tho names of tho Committee appointed: Messrs. Howard, MoLogan, Brown, Davis, Conway, Kozminski, Elkmau, and Olo son. Tho mooting then adjourned. THE OPPOSITION. A mooting of tho Campaign Ward Committees was hold at Opposition headquarters yesterday. It proved to bo a stormy session, and charges of had faith on tho part of sovoral in their work woro freely mado. Tho Secretary wos out spoken, and gavo sovoral such reprimands as to dampen their enthusiasm. Some of tho charges wore of a serious typo, and led to tho displace ment of tho accused, and tho appointment of substitutes. Tho reports from tbo several districts and wards wore of tho most satisfactory character, and, despito tho littlo “onploasantnoss” in tho oarly part of tho sossion, good fooling appeared to prevail. Tho attendance of colorod people around tho headquarters is increasing every day, which King, who claims to no King of tho tribo, says moans that tho colorod troops will fight bravoiy when tho timo comes. Politics make strange associations. If tho Opposition rocoivos tho colorod vote of tho city and county, as they calculate, it will bo no moan accession to thoir ranks. In tho Twelfth Ward the place of voting in tho Fourth Precinct has been changed from 88 Kansas to 40 Nebraska street. In tho Fifteenth Ward tho voting-place has boon changed from 207 Milwauko avenue to tho Eughio-iiouso. TUB THIRD WARD. The trouble in the Third Ward over Alderman ossumod a now phase yesterday. Some of tbo Opposition and opponents of the regular nomi nee are thinking of bringing out an independent candidate. Tills is regarded, however, la ofllclal circles ns a trick of the enemy. Many who' heretofore have loafed around Republican headquarters wore mingling with the Opposition yesterday. No real signillcancos is attached to tho circumstance from tho well known character of tho men. They were looked upon as RATS deserting & neighbor’s barn after they had oaten its contents. Such of them as made application for money wore Informed that there was already a surplus of such applicants. They will doubt less change their base again to-day. REPUBLICAN HEADQUARTERS. Notwithstanding the iuclomonov of the woalhor yesterday morning, tbo Republican headquarters presented n lively appearance. The attendance of candidates was largo, and the array of familiar faces identified with saloon-politics in the sev eral wards was creditable in numbers at least. The Executive Committee commenced its daily session, with a email attendance, at 10 o’clock, under look and key. Tbo meagre representation wua attributable more to tbo arduous labors of many members oh Sunday rattier than a want of enthusiasm or interest in tbo cause. A largo portion of tbo Committee’s time was absorbed in arranging the DETAILS OF THE OAMPAIOS, and In appointing the nocceaary Division and Ward Cunmhttoos. An examination of tbo Com mittee's financial operations showed that about SBOO had been expended since Saturday morn ing, for halls, music, boor, and speakers. Tbo general situation was discussed, and it is re ported that few if any of those ptosent woro en joying a well-grounded hope of complete sue comb at tbo polls. It was ngtoed before adjourn ment to bold the money of tbo Committee in re serve for tbo ovo of tbo election, when, by a grand liberality, it was believed that tbo greatest good could be accomplished. Tbo treasury strings will most probably bo unloosen ed Friday morning. THE COMMITTEE LOOPY discussed all manner of questions nffccling the canvass, and especially tbo chances of Air. Ear ned in the Third District and Tim Bradley in the oUv and country. The prevailing sentiment among those who have heretofore boon loudoot in their expectations and most extravagant in their estimates of Mr. Fanvoll’s majorities were free to confess a loss of fuilb In Ins elec tion. Mr. Bradley's friends were downcast, and » gloom seemed to have settled upon their hopes. What contributed bo largely to their fooling* ooula not bu ascertained unless it was NUMBER 05. tho doßp°napnoy of Mr. Dradlor hlmaolf-tho shadow aping the substance. It wos rumored during the day that ho had made application to nave hia assessment reduced, but tho request was not granted. 1 >i i> another question nUrac ing attont .m around headquarters was tlio fo lowlm?

I confidently refer to my record as a member of tbo ■Hoard of Common Council during tho past four yearn as nn evidence of the sincerity of mv Intontion to act ouly with a view to your iuturosto. jlespoclfully, M. B. Bailkt. Mr. Bailey, it will ho romomborod, was dofoat oa bofero the llopubllcau Convoutlon for tho oftico ho Is seeking. To appease his wrath ho was put upon tho Executive Committee, but it seems the salvo was Inadequate to tho wound. A delegation of Irishmen subsequently asked that ho bo put on tho ticket in place of Mr. Moore, but they wore refused. No one imagines for a moment that Mr. Bailey wants tho otllco, but that ho lias announced his candidacy simply to accommodate Ida fellow-countrymen in their anxiety to veto for him. In conversation with a IniutJNß reporter during tho day Mr. Bailey remarked that the West-Side was revolution* izing rapidly, and tho way lie talked Hornson around headquarters made tho Committee and candidates tremble, and raised tho suspicion in many minds that in Mr. B. tho party had boon harboring a traitor, HARVEY AND RAUKEIt. It was mentioned in the report of Saturday’s uniiigH that affairs in the Sixth Legislative Dis tnct were uimotllcd. and that the rotlromontof Sir. Barker wuo probable. This gentleman was wor ried very much over tho report, and especially that part of it staling that ho had not paid hie assess* moot. In tUo forenoon ho paid Ida aapossmont, and then devoted the rest of the day to denying the report. The Committee considers Itself ao much ahead. Mr. Barker seems to ho running against Mr. Harvey rather than tho Opposition candidate, and a week will tell how far ho is be hind in tho race. IN THU riltST SENATORIAL DISTRICT there is also a rumpus. Tho idea nas again sprung yesterday, and the proof seems ample, that, if Aid. White should bo elected, ho would bo Ineligible, not having lived in tho district a minioiont length of time, Tho opinion nas freely expressed in official circles that this would throw to Mr. Haines a largo lie publican vote, at least enough to oicct him beyond all question. Tho subject of White’s declination, by request, and tho agreement upon another candidate was discussed. Sauator Iley nolds declared his ultimatum during tho day, and will not bo ah independent candidate. During tho day ••Gen." Hodman visited head quarters with a subscription book ho had boon circulating among Custom-House employes. Ho was closeted with the Secretary for some time. MINOR MATTERS. SIXTH WARD. At a meeting of tho citizens of all patties of tho Sixth Ward, hold at Healey’s Hall last even ing, Frederick Sommer was nominated os an independent candidate for Alderman. The mooting was largo and enthusiastic. Mr. Som mer affiliates with the Opposition party, and was nominated because tho regular nominee is dis tasteful to a portion of tho pai ty of tho ward. TKK EIGHTH WARD. At a meeting of tho Eighth Ward Republican Club held last night at Ho. 325 Blue Island ave nue, Mr. John BohraoUo presided. Gou. 0. L. Mann was tho first speaker intro duced. Tho speaker mentioned separately each candidate for ofiico on tho Republican ticket, and made special mention of Oapt. Jack Stephens, tho candidate for Coroner. Ho said that they had voted (or Stephens hoforo, and, although he was opposed to keeping mon in olfico 100 long, still bo thought Stephens was tho right man for tho office. Tho speaker then mentioned tho namo of Tim Bradley, their candidate for Sheriff, and said Bradley bad been in that olfico since bis boyhood days— ns n Deputy for twenty years, and as Sheriff for nearly four years; ami, notwithstanding the General had, when speaking of Jack Stephens, said that ho wan opposed to keeping men in of fice too long, still ho deliberately advised his hearers to support Bradley for ro-olootion. At tho close of Goo. Mann’s remarks thoro was a unanimous call for Capt. McGraw, who responded to tho call. As ho came to tho front, some thirsty individual remarked that it was time to take a drink; that drinks woro too far apart; that ho believed in drinking be tween times. Capt. McCraw, however, did not give tho crowd an opportunity, and tho barkeep er of tho saloon in which tho mooting was hold frowned hia disapproval at tho result. Capt. McGraw proceeded to address tho Club, and from his remarks ono would havo taken him for a member of tho present People’s party, and at ono time a champion of Democratic principles. Ho referred to tho miluouco of Mr. A. C. Hoeing with tho Gorman element, and said that “ well, ho might be ao inlluontinl man with them ha know of no man in Cook County who was tho su perior, intellectually, of Mr. Hosing, and ho had tho highest regard and respect for him. Tho speaker then said that the Opposition party of to day was tho samo as tho old Democratic party. Ho could not understand why they had changed their namo, for tho old Democratic party had nothing to bo ashamed of ; they had committed no act, so far as ho could see, that they need blush for, and therefore it puzzled him why thoy now as sumed tho name of tho People’s, or Opposition parly. Tho only remarks that the speaker mudo that would load his hearers to suppose ho was a Republican, was when ho mentioned the namo of J. D. Ward, and referred to tho record of that gentleman in tho lust Congress, and, approving of it, said, “ Mr. Ward has fairly represented us, and wo should return him to the national halts of legislation.” McGraw closing his remarks, thoro was a call for Schmolto, the Chairman of (ho Club. Thd Chairman responded with pleasure, and said thoro wore other speakers present, but thoy would wait until ho was through. Ho then in formed tho gentlemen that ho wos an independ ent candidate for Alderman, put ho wished now to withdraw from tho race, ami in doing so ho would give his reasons briefly. In the first place, bo said thoro woro so many candidates for that position in tho ward that ho did not think ho could possibly ho elected ; and his reasons for taking this view wero that ho could not drink u sulfioient quanti ty of whisky, play a good game of cards, or swear hard enough to suit tho voters of tho Eighth Ward, and, therefore, ho withdrew from tho rnco. Tho speaker then said something about tho Republican party having interfered with commerce on tho high seas, or at least Bon Butler had; tho speaker then desired to know who Bon Butler was, and answered him self by saying that Butler was a “ Cock-eyed, thieving Yankee devil.” Hero ho was Interrupted with calls for Mr. Ward, who at that moment camo into tho whisky-saloon. Tho speaker with tho un pronouucahlo name, ho wever, declined to yield to Mr. Ward until his hearers choked him eff with cries and hisses. He then yielded, and the Hon. J. D. Ward came forward and informed hia friends that, if they expected a speech fiom him, ho would havo to'disappoint thorn, for houoa about worn out, having mado so many speeches during the past two weeks that ho could not'ad dross thorn. Tho gentleman, however, appealed to thorn by saying that, if ho must moot with de feat, ho hoped they would select a heller mu than cither himself or Mr. Harrison to represent them In Congress. Ho cautioned them against listening to tho arguments of tho Opposition party, and especially so when they began to talk about thievery and corruption in office by tho present office-holders of tho Re publican part/. Other speakers followed Mr. Ward, ami nt about tho hour of 10 o'clock tho mooting adjourned. tub ELEVENTH WARD, At a meeting held at 104 West Bake street the Eleventh Ward Independent Club nominated, nnaniinotiHly, Angus McGowan as their inde pendent candidate for Alderman. A meeting will be hold to-morrow night. TUI' THIRTEENTH WARD. A Republican mass-mooting was hold in the hall corner of Robey and Madison streets last evening, the principal object in view being the nomination of on independent Aldermiuiio oau
