WORLD MANUFACTURING CO., 188 Nassau Strati, Mow York, mmmm* isjhavt" - ■Misery, berwU* Atlanta, November 28.—The great day looked forward to to ea gerly, and for which such prepara tion baa been made, opened with heavy cloud, and rain. The streets were muddy, a. only the street* of Atlanta can get in bad weather. But tbe crowds poured into th. city without regard to the weather. Every train through tbe day came in loaded with people, and the *t*e.ts became so thoroughly pack ed that movement became a very difficult work. The eity was mass of flags and decorations of every conceivable character. Every available apace waved a flag Tk. small boy and tbe tin born were everywhere, but for once be was almost swallowed up by bigger things, if there is any bigger thing than the small boy. All during the day the crowd circulated over tbe city, in perfect good humor, and enjoyed tbe oocasion thor oughly. At nightfall the wholo oily was lighted op aa by magio. Every window was il luminated and tbe streets blazed with torches, bonfires and calcium lights. All during the night there was an incessant noise from horns, steam-whistles and cannons. Rail road men to-night say the different linos of road brought into tbe city full fifteen thousand people, and it is fair to say there were on tbe streets to night in the neighbor hood of thirty thonsand people. At 6 o’elook the procession start ed under the triumphal arcb erect ed across Marietta street, between tbe capitol and oustorn house. Tke line was made uo of mounted police, the Governor’s Horse Guard, torch-bearers on foot, mounted horsemen with torches, delegations with torohes, floats and transpar encies representing tbe different trade* and industries, hslf a dozen brass bands, a vigorous steam cal liope and carriages containing tbs members of the Democratie com mittee having charge ol Mr. Ran dall and party. The procession marched up and down a number of tbe principal streets and shortly after 8 o’clock drew up in front of De Give’s Opera House. Mr. Randall was escorted to the opera bouse balcony, wbiob was lighted with electricity and crowded with ladies and distin guished citizens. Mr. Randall was introduced by Mr. Henry W. Gra dy, and as be looked down upon tbe sea of faces, bo wss greeted with a roar of cheers that seemed to shake tbe city. Mr. Randall said bo had come from bis home in Pennsylvania to join tbe people of Georgia in this demonstration—this celebration of a great Democratic victory, won by fidelity to tbe principles of tbe party. In tbe midst of bis joy be bad a feeling of sadness that Ucor- f ia’s distinguished statesman, A [. Stephens, and that other great statesman, Mr. Benjamin Hill, were not here to rejoice with ns. Death had claimed them, but they bad left tbe people of the State a priceless legacy. In tbe election of a Democratic President a great responsibility had been placed upon him and on the party. Will they be equal to it? Knowing Grover Cleveland a* he does, he could assure them that be would discharge to the full every duty. We bave won a great con stitutional victory, and will return to a pure and honest government. He believed the administration would be characterized by those noble words on tbs coat-of-arms— “Wisdom, Justice and Moderation.’ Tbe time was when there were differences in the Democratic party on the question of the tariff, but he believed tbe utterance at tbe Ghloago eonvention was broad enough and liberal enough for all. He would not undertake to say that there was anything in the con- dilution to explicitly justify pro- !°IiT£S>a lection per se, but would say that tbe duty on imports should he so levied as to discriminate in favor of American industries to cover the difference in tbe cost of pro ducing tbe foreign articles and tbe domestic. It should be levied so as to protect tbe American mechan ic and American industries. One great duty of tbe Democrat ic party in power would be When in the North the Reptib- lioana railed the bloody thirt, at did Mr. Blaine in hie reeentepeeeb at Augusta, he would eay that he found here in the Empire State of tbe South no eolid South, and heard no solid North, but a solid union. He had found nowhere in this country no people who had more respect for tbe flag of the Union, who were more enthusiastic, more sincere, loyal and devoted to tbe Union than tbe people of Georgia. He concluded by thanking tbe people from bis heart, which be believed was sound to tbe core, fo. a the generous welcome and kindness he bad received at their hands. Mr. Randall was followod by Hon. W. U. Henzel, Chairman of the Democratie State executive committee of Pennsylvania, who made an eloquent and taking speech. He paid a high tribute to Georgia and her people, saying^ among other things, we had a tong line of statesmen, of whom the State was justly proud,' who had never written letters they were ashamed of, nor had occasion to add the postscript “Burn this.’’ After the speaking there was a grand pyrotechnie display,. after which there wat a publio reception at tbe executive mansion in honor of Mr. Randall and kit party. doy21w4 The Next Senator from Illlnsls to b» a Democrat. Cihoaoo, Nov. 29.—It is pretty neralJobn definitely settled that Gene: A. Logan will be retired from politi cal life. While counting tbe ballots last night the Grand Jury found that in the Second Precinct of the Eighteenth Ward Brand (Demo crat) received 498 votes, twenty- four more than was credited to him. Leman (Republican) bad 196, twenty-four less than be wss credit ed with on tbe face of the returns. Tha Grand Jury also found that over 200 supposed straight R«. S ublican ballots bad I he name of -rand substituted for that of Leman. Owing to tbt. fact the Legisla ture will be Democratie on joint ballot by two majority, and tbe next Senator from tbe State of Illi nois wilt be a Democrat. Situation Wanted.
