FIFTH WAKD LAST NIGHT. ; Grand Rally In the Banner Ward speeches ot Col. J. W. Atkinson and Ex-Judge Can t well. A large and appreciative audience assem bled at the Fifth Ward pole beneath the oaks last night Several bonfires had been lighted and threw their radiance over the handsome stand with its canopy of banners. We noticed at the rear of the platform a handsome banner having tbe names, "Til den, Hendricks, Yauce, Jarvis," in large and beautifully formed letters. We were informed that tbis banner was made by Mrs. W. H. Swindell. It reflects credit upon tbe taste of that lady. The Tilden and Vance Guards were out in force and lent additional attractiveness to the scene. At a short time before eight o'clock. Capt. B. W. Beery, President of the Fifth Ward Club, arose, and in a few appropriate remarks, introduced Col. J. W. Atkinson, tbe first speaker of tbe evening. Col. Atkinson made one of bis finest efforts on this occasion, and for the space of an hour interested his numerous audi- euce. He dwelt particularly on the fraud and corroption of the Republican party, the whiskey frauds, the squandered taxes and other glaring proofs of tbe failure of tbe present administration to honestly ad minister tbe government. The speaker ad dressed bis auditors at length on the neces sity for reform, the importance of their duty in the impending contest and charged every man to do bis duty. Col. Atkinson's remarks embodied many interesting points which our limited space will not permit us to touch upon. At tbe close of Col. Atkinson's address there were loud cries for Judge Cantwell, and that gentleman arose amid long and continued applause. He opened his speech in a very eloquent manner, referring to the ground swell of sentiment that encom passed the forty millions of people in this country, which sent up tbe cry for Reform. After the war be bad accepted; tbe situa tion as it stood and bad joined tbe Repub lican party in good faith, but now that party bad grown so corrupt that be felt it the duty of every well meaning man to leave it. He spoke of tbe Constitutional Convention, how true the Democratic mem bers were to their pledges in that body, and bow derelict the Republicans bad tried to be. He referred to the inequality of the distribution of offices over the country; be wanted it to be done away with. He was particularly severe upon tbe administration tactics with regard to South Carolina. The beads of the different religious denomina tions in Charleston bad protested that mere was no need for United States troops in that city. Radical Judges throughout the State had done tbe same thing. May be (said tbe Judge) these Judges, like myself, have turned Democrat He inveighed against tbe President, not only in tbe case of Louisiana, but in that of South Carolina, and lie (the speaker) said that if be was a member of tbe United Stales House of Representatives be would offer a resolution impeaching President Grant on these two matters alone. The speaker referred to county matters, saying that New Han over county affairs were not now adminis tered by honest men. After further inte resting and appreciated remarks Judge Cantwell closed his speech, which bad oc cupied about an hour and three quarters in its delivery, by declaring that on next elec tion day he would deposit his ballot for Tilden and Hendricks, which announce ment was received with loud and prolonged applause. Judge Cantwell was frequently interrupted with applause. 9 Tbe meeting came to a close, after a vote of thanks, moved by Col. J. W. Atkinson, was returned to ex-Judge Cantwell lor his able and eloquent address. Tne Stevedore. There was more trouble among tbe col ored stevedores yesterday. An effort was made to get a number of them to assist in loading- ;the Norwegian barque Anion, at tbe lower wharf of Messrs. Williams & Murchison, but they refused to take' bold at the old rates, which were from $1.50 to $2.50 per day on rosin and spirits, demand ing ftom $8.50 to $4.50, or about double tlie prices formerly paid. Attempts were made to compromise on a reasonable ad vance, which were not successful. After lusiug n good portion of the day in trying to arrive at a satisfactory arrangement and failing, the crew of tbe ship aud several white meu were put on, with one colored assistant, and the work of loading the Ves sel was proceeded with. ' In the mwantime a large crowd of stevedores and hangers-on gathered in tbe vicinity, but were finally dispersed without any violent deraonstra tions. Arson and Then. A colored woman by the name of Am an da Steele, living in the neighborhood of Seventh and Ann streets, was dow a town on business Saturday nignt, anout 7 o'clock leaving ber house locked, and during ber absence some person forced an entrance through one of the windows, set fire to ber bed and stole a pair of new shoes she bad just purchased. Fortunately the fire was discovered by seme of tbe neighbors, who effected an entrance into the house sad ex tinguished the flames before, they had result ed in much damage. There is no cine st present to tbe perpetrator of the arson and theft. I U. S. District court! Tbe session of tbis Court, which was to have commenced yesterday, was postponed on account of the non-arrival of Judge Brooks, who bss been holding a term of the Court at Newburn during the pspt Judge Brooks arrived last night and -t . tit Shi a a UOUIl WUI open iniS mornug, at 1U o eiOCB. Superior Court. Tbe following cases were disposed of in tbis Court yesterday: State vs. John Fisher, arraigned on a peace warrant; dismissed" on the payment of costs Jane Arlington, indicted for arson, was brought into Court for arraignment. Messrs. London, Martin and Bellamy were assigned for the defence. Upon her arraignment defendant plead not guilty. It was order ed by the Court that Thursday of this week be set for the trial of tbe cause. It was also ordered that a writ issue to the sheriff, commanding him to summon one hundred good and lawful men as a ve nire to serve as jurors in this case. State vs. Lawrence Williams, charged with larceny. ' Defendant found guilty. In the case of Elias Council, convicted of assault and battery, defendant's counsel made a motion for a new trial. Judgment hid was entered in one or two cases. Police Arreiia. Annie J. Speight, the "irrepressible," was arrested yesterday morning for acting very disoiderly on tbe streets. Her conduct can only be accounted for on tbe supposi tion, strange as it may appear, that she had, by some "hook or crook," imbibed too freely of tbe delectable beverage known in common parlance sS " benzine. " She evinced some slight disinclination to be taken to the "lock-up," a fact which was subsequently evidenced by tbe somewhat disordered and dilapitated condition of tbe outer garments of tbe officer who made tbe arrest, while it would be rather a forced construction of her language on tbe occa sion to characterize it as either "sweet" or "silvery" in tone, or "sublime" in concep tion. Laura Taylor, colored, was also arrested and lodged in tbe Guard House on tbe charge ef disorderly conduct on tbe streets An Obstreperous Female. Warrants were issued yesterday for the arrest of Ells Holmes, colored, charged with assault and battery on the person of Georgiana Gause, on the public streets, on Saturday evening last, striking her three times with brickbats and several times with ber fist, inflicting a severe wound on her forehead; and also with assaulting in like manner Effle J. Hines, striking her with a brickbat. She will have a bearing before the Mayor's Court this morning. All tbe parties are colored. " 'VI Personal. Rt Rev. Bishop Gibbons, D.

At Enfield be was taken out of bis bed a bed in the car. He bad to dress and go out, and make a speech, and be did it in his. inimitable style. Quite a large number of ladies were present st Wilson and Enfield, and all cheered bim and greeted bim very warmly, j He told them the skies were very bright snd bright-' en ing to tbe most brilliant day. He esti mated his own and Tilden's majority at not less than 8.CO0, and it might reach 12,000. He said be bad crossed the State three times,. travelling about 3,500 miles; had seen and spoken to 100,000 people, and such enthusiasm he bad never witnessed, and be was told by the old men that no thing of thejkind had ever been seen in tbe state since 1840, when Morehead earned it by 10,000 majority. At Weldon he ar rived at 11:30 P. M., when tbe Agricultural Fair Ball was going on. All was stopped and Gov. Vance was carried into tbe ball room and introduced to tbe ladies, where be bad again to address them.. After sup per be was allowed to retire at 1 :30 A. SL About 9 A M. we started for Jackson and arrived about 12, where we found 2,500 or more people, including several hundred la dies snd five hundred negroes. I think Gov. Vance made here his best speech. I have beard him three times before, in reg ular addresses, and tbis was tbe best of tbe campaign. He lifted the Radical party up to public view in all its abominations and corruptions Its outrageous trampling of tbe Constitution in the dust, by every . sort i of wrong and under every sort of pretence, was vividly portrayed, snd now, said he, to cap the climax, Grant has assembled a large part of the army in South Carolina to control tbe free voice' of tbe people and to bold up that carpet-bag thief, Chamberlain, for Governor, while savages are murdering the people of the Northwestern frontier. The army was carried to South Carolina to trample on the Constitutional rights of that people, but said be, Grant and his party see the hand writing en the wall and tbis is their desperate work to save' themselves from utter overthrow and destruction. Go on, my friends, for a few days longer, and at the ballot-box see that your votes are all deposited: Don't forget the Amendments, and the most glorious victory of our day and generation awaits you. The passage of Gov. Vance was a perfect ovation all along the route to Northamp ton; there two hundred mounted men es corted bim from Capt. Peebles' t o Jackson, about four miles. . ., .,. !
