Hon , John E , Lamb , o ; Terre Haute , presided , and apaschos were made by Ylco-President Hend ricks and Mayor McMaiter , of this city , thn latter a re publican , Resolutions wore ndopted of sym pathy und encouragement with Parnell and the Irish party. Mr. Hendrlcks spoke ai follows : Always , whatever may ba her condition , Irolan i will find devoted nnd steadfast frlcnda in the United States , Somoyoars ago I was called up on to attend a mooting of another nationality , When the war was pending batwoon Franco and Prussia , tha Garmana of this city held a Tory largo nnd interesting mooting , to oxprosa their sympathy in the cause of Germany in that controversy.tl felt it right thus to partic ipate in that meeting became tha eoas of Germany were deeply interested in tha con test , Thia Is no contoit between armies or between navies for the establishment of good government in Ireland , and vary specially do I enjoy participating and joining with you Irish mon nnd Irish women in expressing the Bontunonta you express on this occasion. What shall ba the government of Ireland ? For many years It hag not been a contro verted qua&tlon that Ireland has been dealt hardly by. It haa been known the world over that Ireland , from the days of Henry I nntil thla hour , haa not had fair play from Great Britain. On the contrary , she liaa been denied the rlghta of equal citizenship , and has been despoiled of her land. Every Irishman here to-night every Irishman in America is a protest against the bad governing of England , toward Ireland. How ia It that you ara here , having left almost the most beautiful land in the world ? Perhaps no part of this globe ii moro attractive than Ireland. You are here because you could not get good government in Ireland , Forty-five years axe the population of the "Green Isle ' was9OOJ,000 of people a largo population for a region of country only the size o , Indiana. To-day , niter the lapse of forty-five' years , that population is only 5,000 , a loss In loss than half a century of 4,000 of population almost nn entire half of the entire popula tion gone from Ireland. I know that the famine of 1843 had much to do with this , but bad government and cruelties by the land lords have done more than famine or pesti ] lenco to depopulate the beautiful ialo , I would say it la a serious matter when a man or a woman chooses to leave tha laud that has been the homo of their ancestors for many centuries , nnd when , on account of bad government , unjust laws , nnd a cruel system of tyrany , there haa ben driven away almost half of the population , the question , ' What Ia to be done ? " cornea up. It cannot remain always thia way. The landlord who draws the rent cannot always enjoy it in Paris and London. Ho must have a pirt in the fortunes of the people of the country or quit. It cannot always ba that the people of Ireland are to bo oppressed. I think the day of tyranny in every form is to pass away , and that the day is soon to come when all men will be blest with good government and Just laws. It la well enough tor you and me to under stand just what tbo political contest in Ireland Is , I chanced to pay a visit to the housn of commons a few years ago , nnd heard this cause. Mr. Parnell , then , as now , was the loader , and held that in ro- apoct to her domestic affairs , Ireland should have the right to mike her own lawj. There are this fall 100 members of parliament to be elected from Ireland , and Mr. Par nell expects that of this number , hla came will carry eighty or eighty- five , so that when parllanont meets there will be of true , tried and reliable friends of Ireland , at least eighty membera , They will go to parliament for tha purpose of assisting the right of locil self-government Ia Ireland , What a beautiful system that will bel They ake it from you Irlihmen in Amerlci. Here , aa I said , in Indiana , about the sire of Ireland , differing not moro in extent than half of Marion county , with a populalbn not moro than half aa largo aa Ireland , wo would allow no man tospeakoftakiogfromustheiightand power of local self government. Wo recog nize the rlnht and power of the general gov ernment , but what tffects you and me , and the people- Indiana with us , is that Indiana makes her own laws. The million of the , men to bo sent from Ireland to parliament is to have for Ireland what wo Indlanans enjoy ; to claim tao right to make bar own laws simply because we can regulate our own affairs bettor than any one else on regulate thorn for U ) . So Irishmen , on their own soil , for that simple reason must bo tha legislators for Ireland , That was the great argument first assorted in this country , Ono hundred years eitabllthod the fact that local self-gov ernment with respect to local alfairs ia the true system of government in thia world , The great trouble in Ireland to-day ia the Und , Whire there is trouble with land in any country , the troubla la exceedingly great. Much bos been done in Ireland to make bet ter the condition of the tenant , but the land trouble still exists , and it mutt ba regulated. It must be regulated as wo regulate such mat- terslnlndlana byleglalators from thoBoil , No question can oilae between the landlord and tenant in Indiana that Is not reirulated by our legislature. Sa Ireland muit have local self government. Who In Indiana would trust to nny other stata in legislation for her school ) , in the building up of her Industries ? Ho , according to Mr , Parnoll , not only the ag ricultural claaaes , but the mechanics , tha people ple of the cities and towns uiunt llvo , aud when Ireland becomes clothed with the right and power of self-government , theao matters will bo cared for , That Is a doctrine , so plainly expressed , and so powerful in It * appli cation to human interests , that it will naver atop , It will go on. It Is not iota juablolhfkt in London the re lation of landlord and tenant In IreUud shall bo fixed. It Is against reason and justice that such a practlca should permanently prevail. When men to be | elected fcby [ thn 'friends ' of Ireland oomo to parliament , It will ba to say as ono man , "Local self-government in Ireland , " You are asked to help in this election. There is to be no mistake made at thia election ; there will bo no sbami , no fraudi. Ireland Is tremendously in earn est. Before any man la nominated he Is to rive a written pledge to sit and vote and act with the members representing Ireland nnd favorable to Ireland's cause. Mr. Parnell is a great leader , acd I believe ha is going to lead his countrymen to triumph and auccesi , It is proper that I should say to you , that the friends of your country in Ireland relv upon the differences between the two grett Engllah parties wilier and tory , or radical aud liberal Not greatly dlilment are they iu numbers and force , and Mr. Parnell relies upon thU , and if Ireland is thoroughly united ia the struggle batwoen the twoEogliah partiej , Ireland will be placed where ih ought to be in her political relations with the world. Eaoh party seeking strength from the Irith vote will help to plac < Ireland where she has the right to tand. I think this cause will go further than hu yet been mentioned. It will result in just whit we have In Iudiana written onitUU- ttcn. Ohl that Is what I hope to see Irelan to be governed by a written conatitution , in which parliament wilt be reatricted as our leg Islaturo is by the constitution of the state. Will it not baa grand sight when in the city of Dublin there will meet n constitutiona convention to form a conatitution for Ireland I observe Mr. Parnell favon only one branch , ono parlUmentory body , Ho is afraic of the housa of lords , perhaps , but he could have as wo have here , a senate in Ita stead and thus bo saved from the errors and fault of legislation. I do not know of anything that would glvi me greater ploMuro than to attend that constitutional convention ii Dublin , ( great cheering ) , I want to live untl that timo. Let us come bick to the great question which lays at the foundation of government the question of the right of the people to make their own laws , and that no other power has a right to make laws for thorn , You remombe wnore wo stood 103 years buck. You romom bar that in the doclarationof independence wi assorted the right of men to govern thorn- solves. That is the great foundation idea o America and is now being npplioi in Ireland , a cause to which you are to give your sympathy and support the rliht of man to govern himself and abollsl laws that are inimical to his welfare. In tha hope thla principle was asserted nt Bunker Hill , and in glorious triumph It was pro claimed at Yorttown ( great applauee ) The following telegram was forwarded to Mr , Parnell after the close of the mooting : HON. Cius. STIWAUT PAIIXBI.L , Dublin : At an immense macs mooting hold hero to night , addressed by Hon. Taoma * A. Hen- dricku , vice president of the United States resolutions were adopted endoralng your ad dress of August 22 , and pledging you aid moral and financial. John Shormmi'B Second Effusion. LEBANOK , Ohio , Sept. 8. Senator John Sherman delivered n speech hero to-night devoted voted mainly to replying to the nddreea o ! Governor Hoadly. The senator clalmad the governor had not fairly stated the senator's positions , and that ho had evaded and avoided the importance of tha issues growing out of the condition of affairs in the south. The senator reiterated that the war was over , ind he only demanded what was fairly won by the soldlera In war. Six millions of people wore emancipated nnd enfranchised by the war , and amendments were made with the personal approval of Governor Hoadly , as n : e nlt of which they were on- .tiled to vote and were granted representation in cangrosa and the electoral college. They had been practicallydoniedmany of the necessary Incident ] of liberty , among Lho moat precioua of which is the right to free discussion , nud they were now disfranchised nnd thui openly and boldly deprived of nil safeguards by which alone their liberty can be preserved. The speaker claimed in scarcely n district of the south was thera any pretense of n fair election. They were throttled by every device - vice that the ingenuity of crime could invent , The speaker declared the governor ttrald not deny this in thofaca of accumulated testimony , This was cot only unjust : o the colored men , but was unjust to the white men of the north , "Toe effect of the crimes I have mentioned , " said the speaker , "Is to confer upon the white leoplo of the south not only a number of votes ; o which they are entitled for the white popu- ation , but also the thirty-eight votes baaeJ ipon the colored population , and in this way n some of the southern states every whlta voter possesses tha political power ot two white voters in tha northern states Tha col ored people bavo praotica'ly no voice in con- ; ress nnd no voice In the elec- oral college. Mr. Cleveland fa now president of the United States nstend of Jnmea G. Blaina by roacon of tneso crimes. I claim this should be cor- octed. An injustice eo gross nnd palpable will not ba submitted to by the colored people of the south , nor by the falr-mindod white men in the south who hate wrong and injus tice , nor by the great body of the northern loople , by whoso sacrifices in the union causa he war was brought to a successful tormins- ion. I confess there are difficulties in tha way of a proper remedy. Thia may be > rought about first by an appeal to the south o correct nn injustice and wrong which will , as loujr as it lasts , tend to make our politics sectional. In South Carolina , /irfrmia , North Carolina , Mississippi and jouisana , a fair election would at once correct bia evil , but it will be resisted ns a matter of course by the domnant elements that now con- rol the south. If the policy of the past Is tea > a pursued , and there is no redrets for the colored people of the south under the color of Into laws , then undar the fourteenth amend ment to the constitution we may fairly appeal , o all tha northern states to stand together o reduce tbo representation based upon the colored vote , and on this question Governor Hoadly ought to be where he was during tbo war. " The opoaker paid a contest waa now going on in Virginia , led by prominent loaders in ho rebel nrmy , to secure equal political Ights for all citizens. Senator Sherman fin ally said Governor Hoadly did not seem to understand the distinction , between a man who favors the Mlaeisaippi policy and such men as Key and Akerman , who did all they could to put down the kuklux klan , A Prohibition LIOVO Feast. SYRACUSE , N. Y , , Sept. 8. The state pro- ilbition convention met at Alhambrla rink to- lay , with from 300 to 400 delegate ! assembled , lorace Waters , of New York , led the moet- ug. Delegate Wyman , of the eamo city , lewailed the apathy of ministers toward tbo prohibition movement , "Ihey don't believe aud I do " aaid ha " have'nt ia you , ; "they got heir eyes open yet. We must pray for them unceasingly. They need the light moro than any other class of mon , As for mo , I will itand by the homo I love ; I will stand by the > ible I love ; and I will s.and by the ilig I eve , until tbo molta of prohibition ia pone Ihd n shining characters on the blue vault of leaven , " Another delegate said that the Empire tate was full of stenches and that every city was a Sodom or Gomorrah. "Prohibition alone can save it , " he declared , ' 'and when we are successful , as we must be , this conti nent will see ths greatest day that has ever jeen , " J. W. Bruce , of Madison county , in nn ad dress advocating prohibition , created a aensa- .Ion by violently arraigning the church nnd ninlatry. He had scarcely done epeaklng when a delegate sprang to his feet and charged Vir. Bruce with unjustly assailing tha holiest nstitutioES on earth , 'The church was tbe stronghold of abolltionlats , " he said. "It is not , " answered a choruc of voices , "Let him epeak , " roared a delegate , indignant at tha nterruptiou. "The church haa bsen maligned , md the mlnlitry , too ; lot them nt least have a Fair hearing , " Tbo diacuaiton was finally clesed by tha chairman calling for a hymn. Two thousand people were iu attendance at this timo. At 11 o'clock , when Frederick F. Wheeler of Al bany , oil.ed tbo o invention proper to order , there was scarcely standing room In the big rink. A. A. Ilopliins , of Rochester , wua made temporary chairman , Mr. Hopkins delivered a vary eloquent address , occupying more than an hour. He congratu lated thoao present on tha growth and strength of the prohibition movement , and because tne Itsuea wore so claaily drawn. He declared that the democratic party stood behind the liquor traffic , and arraigned tbe republican party mercilessly. Ha said the lame party would go down aa surely as the ilava party went down. At the conclusion ol Prof. Hopkin'i speech , Wheeler , of thestate committee , read a telegram - gram addressed to an Ohio prohibitionist , pledging the party lure to cany New York il tholr brethren thera would carry Ohio , Standing committees on credentials , order of buiineia. finance , resolutions and perma nent organization were then appointed am tbe convention took a recess.

At a cimp fire gathering of tha assembled veterans to-nlgbt , Senator 0 H.

" At each recurring anniversary , each yearly eunion the number becomes less to nuswer he roll-call. It seems a short span since the first gun was .ted on Sumpterj when another such span ball have pissed how few of all that grand tiny which shook the earth in battle and chlevod results such as the world had never witnessed , with bent form and tottering step , will remain among the children of men. To-day there is no ingratitude Ion the part f the paoplo toward tha defenders and nvlors. There is no soldier , however great us disability , his pain , his sufferings , his > rivation who would surrender his title- deed to tha inheritance of glory in tha re- atablishment and perpetuity of the republic ocured by his valor. There may have boon times of despondency and reason for discontent , but the hearts of ho people have always yearned to their de- enders and desired that the national treasury hould ever bo open to tbir wants , bnt it ii a eng , wearisome , and crooked way from the learts and doaires of tha people , through congress and the forms and furbelows of tne tention oflico to a cartificite of monthly pay o the disabled veteran. You bavo felt indignant , who has not ? when the department required morn proof to show his disability was contracted in tie service than a jury would require to es- ab'iih n deed to land or conviction for murder. The eye may ba siehtlets , the limb paral- zed , no power to toil , BO ho'pleea as to be ed in the bright sunshine and fed by hands f loving wife and children , a strong , stal wart man when entering the service , yet 10 department will delay , and by special gents seek to ascertain whether some time urlng the tourney from Infancy to his en- otment sickness or accident had not wrestled with him on the way , as it has with every one f the human family , and then arbitrarily onnect his disability with the sickness of outh rhther than the hardships of camp nnd march and the struggles of battle. Often the veteran becomes a wreck from xposure of long army lite. All the facts are well known to family , friends , and tha com munity , yet a technicality , the lack cf urgeon'a testimony , will deny the full meas- re ot justice , The seed ] of disease scattered through many years of service will ripen into various orm , thedyiontory will become chronic , the hill will at last benumb the fountains of life , lie rheumatism may cripple every limb and tlllou every joint , yet the honest soldier , lot anticipating the necessity for a pension , s neither keeping a dally record of the pro- ; resi of the disease , or fortifying hlmaolf with the attendnnos and proacrlptloa of pby- luuna , No one denies the duty of the department to protect the treasury from frtud , Yet too ften tha protection Is at the expenie of the wrecked and broken veteran , and the shrewd , cunning schemer , by fraud and perjury , Is cubing tha treasury even while they are trupBlmg to prevent it. True , some of tha ID justice of the depart ment Is corrected by congress passing special illl { or relief , but that reaches only here and hero one of the many entitled. Deftctive awe , or unnatural and unjust construction placed on thorn , renders new legislation by ionrroes absolutely necesitry. A law ii needed drclariog that the acceptance of a eol- dier by the government , and swearing him latp tha service , is evidence that he was a sound in on at date of enlistment , A law it needed giving to every soldier who mutt labor for subsistence , and who is dla abled for any euch labor , no matter wbethoi tuch dieability was contracted in the erlc or otherwise , thill be entitled to a peniion o : not lees than $ .2 per month.

The life of the nition WM saved mainly b ( Into who bad the lent pwjurty Interest to be J protected. Not many of tha Vandorbilti nnd Aston nnd Goulds took up tha burthen of life in that way.

So has justice been denied the Mexican col dicr until the power of that little army is ba- ing despoiled in the grave.
