So appalling was the news received from the different wards last evening, to one party of those assembled at Tammany Hall, that the Grand Sachem gave up the ship, put out the lights, and retired from the chair at an early hour. But the Friends of the People, who were engaged in their committee room below stairs, immediately procured the candles to be re-lighted, placed Robert Swartwout in the chair and among other resolutions they passed the following:
Ev. Post.
GENERAL REPUBLICAN MEETING, AT TAMMANY HALL.
Resolved, That this meeting have full confidence in the papers called the New York Patriot and New York American, notwithstanding the resolution of a majority of the General Committee.
Resolved, That the Republicans of this city have lost all confidence in the National Advocate, and that it be considered as no longer an organ of Republican sentiments.
R. SWARTWOUT, Chairman.
ABM. STAGG, Secretary.
