GIGANTIC “REFORM” AND *“ WORK-
ING MEN'S” DEMONSTRATION
IN GLASGOW.
Grascow, Tuesday Lventig.
The greatest public demonstration that has
occurred in Glisgow fora long series of years,
took place here this morning. During the
Reform agitation of 1882, a large assemblage
of Reformers, numbering about 70,000, met
together on Glasgow-green, and this morning
a similar meeting, only one of twice the size,
estimated to contain about 150.000. persons,
assembled on the same spotunder the auspices
of the Reform League to pass resolutions in
favor of another Reform Bill, A large trade
procession, containing, according to the most
accurate estimate, from 28,000 to 80,000 per-
sons, was formed on the Green at 11 o'clock,
and marched then through the principal strects
of Glasgow and back again to the starting
point, where trom yarious platforms several
incetings were heid simultaneously, and reso-
lutions in_ favor of Parliamentary Reform
adopted, ze of the

The impeachment of President Johnson
will, itis ascertained by some ofthe New York
papers, be attempted by the * Radicals” in the
50d Congress (second session), which is to
ticet on the first Monday in December, Ina
lite election speech, Mr. Bingham said ;—
“So help me God, L will neither give sleep
to my eyes nor slumber to my eyelids until i
shall have drawn bills ofimperchment against
Andrew Jolson.”
The grounds of impeachment are thus
stated :
1, An attempt to bring Congress into public
hatred, ridicule and contempt,
2. Wrongfully using the power of appoint-
ment, and disregarding the prerogatives of the
United States Senate in the. appointment of
men whom that body, in pursuance of consti-
tutional authority, had tried and rejected.
2. For declaring peace in the insur
ary Stites without the consent of Congr
4. For corruptly using the pardoning
power.

6. Bor his complicity in the New Orlear

sented a very animated appearance. Many

procession seemed to be dressed for a holiday,
and flags and banners of the Glasgow colors
floated from the windows on every side, while
at some points lines were suspended across
the streets, and so thickly adorned with flowers
and leaves that they resumed something of the

GIGANTIC “REFORM” AND *“ WORK-

IN GLASGOW.
Grascow, Tuesday Lventig.
The greatest public demonstration that has
occurred in Glisgow fora long series of years,
took place here this morning. During the
Reform agitation of 1882, a large assemblage
of Reformers, numbering about 70,000, met
together on Glasgow-green, and this morning
a similar meeting, only one of twice the size,
estimated to contain about 150.000. persons,
assembled on the same spotunder the auspices
of the Reform League to pass resolutions in
favor of another Reform Bill, A large trade
procession, containing, according to the most
accurate estimate, from 28,000 to 80,000 per-
sons, was formed on the Green at 11 o'clock,
and marched then through the principal strects
of Glasgow and back again to the starting
point, where trom yarious platforms several
incetings were heid simultaneously, and reso-
lutions in_ favor of Parliamentary Reform
adopted, ze of the

The impeachment of President Johnson
will, itis ascertained by some ofthe New York
papers, be attempted by the * Radicals” in the
50d Congress (second session), which is to
ticet on the first Monday in December, Ina
lite election speech, Mr. Bingham said ;—
“So help me God, L will neither give sleep
to my eyes nor slumber to my eyelids until i
shall have drawn bills ofimperchment against
Andrew Jolson.”
The grounds of impeachment are thus
stated :
1, An attempt to bring Congress into public
hatred, ridicule and contempt,
2. Wrongfully using the power of appoint-
ment, and disregarding the prerogatives of the
United States Senate in the. appointment of
men whom that body, in pursuance of consti-
tutional authority, had tried and rejected.
2. For declaring peace in the insur
ary Stites without the consent of Congr
4. For corruptly using the pardoning
power.
5. Bor having failed to enforee the Civil
Rights bill,
6. Bor his complicity in the New Orlear
riot.

Mr, John Bright, M. P., who had accepted
aninyitition to address the inhabitants of

evening meeting, witnessed the progress of
the procession trom the window of the Cob-

the immense crowd which aceomy dit,
passed by the hotel, repeating che were
given for Mr. Bright, who bowed his acknow-
ledgements. The line of the procession pre-
sented a very animated appearance. Many
of the houses withia the route taken by the
procession seemed to be dressed for a holiday,
and flags and banners of the Glasgow colors
floated from the windows on every side, while
at some points lines were suspended across
the streets, and so thickly adorned with flowers
and leaves that they resumed something of the
