Arrested.
--John Colligan deputy Marshal under Capt. Rynders, of New York, has been arrested on the charge of permitting the encape, some time since, of Capt. Latham, of the slaver Cora.
or his arrest and commitment was made out by Capt, Goddard; Chief of Police, and it was determined to place him in jail without an examination at this time, unless that was demanded by his counsel, Mr. Carlisle.
As soon as Mr. Thompson received the letter and ascertained the probable whereabouts (in New York) of Bailey's alleged confederate — Wm. H. Russell, of the firm of Russell.
Major & Co., the great overland pony express and army-transportation contractors — he telegraphed to Marshal Rynders to effect his arrest; but up to the hour at which we go to press we have not been able to learn that he is in custody.
He is believed to have reached Washington this morning per rail, getting into the cars at Philadelphia, and leaving them only after they had backed out of the Washington depot, to return in on another track; eluding the officers on the watch for him, by jumping off thus on the outskirts of the city.
Russell is said not to be the only person implicated besides Bailey.
he day from the midst of my fellow citizens and incarcerate me. ("Never," and protracted cheers.)
[A man in the audience proposed three cheers for Judge Hall, which were enthusiastically given.]
What is to be done — a last Cheer from Capt Rynders--Procession to the bastille with the liberty cap.
Now, fellow-citizens, I dare say I shall be asked by Republicans, after these complain s against the Administration of the Government, "What are we to do? " If this country was not in the midst of a civil war, I would have no hesitancy in saying, as Patrick Henry said, in the Revolution.
"Resistance to tyrants is obedience to God." (Enthusiastic and long continued cheering.) Capt. Rynders-- "Three cheers for that, if it is the last cheers that freemen have to give." The cheers were given.) What are we to do?
(An auditor--"Where are the tyrants?" "Put him out.") All I propose to do is to appeal to the ballot-box That has hitherto been a sufficient court of appeal for all the pe

"The Unterrified in Council — Immense Gathering of the Democracy at the Cooper Institute--The Hall of the Union and the Surrounding Streets Crowded — The New Wide Awakes — Bonfires, Bengola Lights, Torches, Calcium Lights, Rockets and Roman Candles to Brighten the Path of the Union for the Democratic Masses — Speeches of Horace F. Clark, Horatio Seymour, John Van Buren, and Richard O'Gorman."
The meeting opened with the following incident:
Capt. Rynders read a note from Mr. Peter Cooper, requesting that the audience would abstain from spitting on the seats or carpet.
"Knowing you all," said the Captain, "to be gentlemen who are to be hung shortly, I thought I would make known the request."
The following resolutions were then read and adopted as the resolutions of the meeting:
Resolved, That as we desire a vigorous prosecution of the present war, the conservative citizens of this city will continue cheerfully the support alre
litionists at the ballot-boxes.
They must now be removed into the background.
Their overthrow will revive the hopes of the Union men of the South, and, with the dispersion of the rebel army of Virginia, we may now expect a general Southern reaction in favor of the Union, which will speedily end this rebellion.
Scenes in the New York city election.
The Democracy of New York had a very gay time at Tammany Hall, Tuesday night, reading the election returns, which was performed by Capt. Rynders.
The crowd — a very dense one--was addressed by John Van Buren, who congratulated them on "the appearance of a great and decided victory through the State--certainly throughout the city.
He also reminded them that they had a Republican majority of 105,000 to get over, and impressed on them the necessity of remembering that "this was not a party victory, but a triumph of the principles of liberty for the good of the people of all the States."
At Mozart Hall another Democratic meeti
ine." Those who had taken the risk on a believe in his ultimate defeat were not so anxious for a settlement — they preferred waiting for the official returns, until they could hear authoritatively from the rural districts, and consequently there was very little done Elsewhere the feeling was about the same.
The Republican and Union places of meeting were illuminated as usual, but Tammany Hall was in darkness.
The old War Horse was quietly munching his oats at home, as was supposed, and Rynders was looking anxiously after "the gentleman who held the stakes on the result" The whereabouts of even John Van Buren was not known.
In fact Tammany and the Pewter Mug, all was calmness — everything serene.
Among the more respectable case of citizens there was nothing joyous, and still there was an expression of countenance which spoke more plainly than words, "Don't give up the ship."
At the various newspaper office last evening there were not the crowds present who had gathered and
ould keep their arms, and if they had not them they should get them, and be ready under their gallant Governor, to defend the liberties of their State.
Judge McCann said he thanked God that in the State of New York they had a Governor who stood by the people of the State, and would not let them be robbed of their liberties without his solemn protest.
He would say to them, "Don't be afraid." There is but one course for freemen — liberty and friendship or annihilation and death.
Capt. Rynders said those who are to administer the law should be careful that they do not set the example of breaking the paramount law of the land themselves.
My friend said there is no war here.
I tell you there is a war here, and that it is waged by military despots upon the rights and privileges of American people.
It is worse than the war that is now waging in the South.
It is for us to fight for our liberties here.
At stand No. 5 the German speakers addressed the crowd.
Dr. Bergmans sa
their war of words, and to offset their intrigue and management he has the entire patronage and contracts of the Government, so immensely swollen by the war, sufficient to bribe the controlling men of the entire nation.
The odds are incalculably heavy against the opposition.
There is a part of the people and prominent men of the North who have declared unconditionally for the termination of the war. But they are few who have been bold enough to do this.
The Woods, in New York, and Capt. Rynders, were the leaders of those in New York who took this ground, and it was observable that at the meeting which took this stand none of the more prominent statesmen made their appearance.
They fought shy, and preferred to indulge in generalities about the restoration of peace by terminating the rebellion in some way. They would have preferred trick and cheating, with some bribery, doubtless; but it was left to be inferred that either these arts and appliances or force must be used.

Among the Douglas delegates were Thomas M. Lanahan, of Baltimore; August Belmont of New York; Thomas Cottman, of Louisiana, and Senator McDougall, of California.

Prominent among the invited guests were Fernando and Ben Wood, Captain Rynders, Dean Richmond, James Brooks, and John McKcon.
Washington and Philadelphia were suggested as places of holding a National Democratic Convention, but the resolution was finally withdrawn, when the Convention, by general consent, agreed that the two committees should meet at some time and place for the meeting of the Democratic National Convention, and that they be requested to invite persons of all parties to participate in nominating some conservative man for President, after which the
