During the last week the people of West Chester were treated to two Gea ry meetings, one upon Wednesday by thenuasi-white wing of the Republican party, and the other upon Saturday by the ultra-black wing, I'he former was the regular County Mass Meeting. It was addressed by Curtin and Geary; was smaller than usual, and devoid of enthusiasm. The latter Was ostensibly called for the purpose of celebrating the anniversary of the emancipation proclamation, but really to impress up on the negroes that they are entitled to political and social equality, and that they must obtain it, even at the point of the bayonet. It is this latter meeting, addressed by the Rev. Highland Garnett (color ed), of Washington, 1). ('., and the Hon..John Hickman (white), of this place, ol which I desire to give vou an account. Early on Saturday morning, "the free Americans of African descent" be gan to flock into town, and by noon there were several thousand present. The parade was then formed and, head ed by a colored brass band from Phil adelphia, marched through the princi pal streets of tie- borough, and out to the Agricultural Fair Grounds. Along the march handkerchiefs were waved and cheers given by many of our >chHe citizens, persons who make great pre tensions to respectability and good standing in this community. After reaching the fair grounds the meeting was organized by calling one of our ne gro barbers to the chair. The Emanci pation Proclamation was then read, and after the singing of "John Brown's Soul is Marching On," by the colored population, the Rev. Highland Garnett was introduced as orator for the occa sion. He denounced President John | son in unmeasured terms, intimating i in his address that Jie should like to see him assassinated. He told the ne grois that they deserved and were en titled tothe right of suffrage, and warn ed the whites to beware, should they stand in their way of obtaining jt. Af ter abusing: the copperheads and rebels, he wound up with a glowing descrip tion of how the negroes, provided the right of suffrage-should liegiven them, | would rush to the field of battle, should ' there hi; another war, and ask that the "Stars and Stripes should be their win ding sheets. The applause having subsided and i the bend having played "Rally Round the Flag," the Hon. John Hickman ap -1 peared upon the platform, surrounded j by negroes, and was introduced as the ; next speaker. The following is the j substance of his speech: Mn. CIIIRM AN : I have ix'cn asked j why I am here to-day, and I propose to 1 answer that question by saying that I l am here because I want to lie. lam here to lend you my countenance on this occasion, and to say a word in be-' half of your right to suffrage. I would | like to call you " fellow-citizens ," but ; the Supreme Court has said that you ! are not citizens. I should like to call I you frfloir-roters, but, as yet, the law will not permit me to. If, however, 1 I were a young man of twenty, I believe 1 should live to see you enjoy the right ! of suffrage. In times gone by it was customary to question your humanity, hut that, I believe, is no longer ques tioned; it is now conceded by every one that you belongto the human fam ! ily. And, ha'' it not been that Andrew Johnson is con* rolled by bad and wick ed counsellor-, you would to-day en joy the right of suffrage to which you ; are entitled. I am in favor of giving equal and impartial suffrage to the ne gro, because he is entitled to it, and lie cause I believe that Cod Almighty has decreed that justice must be done to all men. Many of the colored people here before me have a better right to vote than I have; for I have but given of my money to sustain the govern ment, whilst they periled their lives to protect it. If the Irishman is entitled to voteaf -1 tor a live years' residence in the coun try, why should not the negro, who has lived here all his life? It is said he is not intelligent enough. I say that if the Irishman is intelligent enough, so is my friend Mr. Harnett. If lam in telligent enough to vote, then so is Mr. Harnett, for he is my equal. II lavs ! ix-en customary to say that the negro who has intelligence derives it from the white blood in his veins. 1 deny it. Stand up brother Harnett.

There can no longer be any doubt but that the Republican party iscommit ted to negro suffrage and equality, at least in this conqtry; for you will rec ollect that in the Press of Friday, Sept. 14,1866, Mr. Hickman, in a letter in an swer to one from many of the leading Republicans of Westchester, "announ ces himself a Radical, h and gives his "views upon the great questions of the ; times." The letter to Mr. Hickman concludes in these words: "We have heard them expressed i.e. your views) too frequently and strongly to leave us in any doubt as to their character, but we wish to give them publicity, as your many friends value them highly."— This letter is signed by Dr. NVilmer Worthington, Republican candidate for the State .Senate in this district; J.Smith Futhey, Ciiainnan of the Republican County <'ommittee; Addison May, Win Darlington, a prominent lawyer and great Anti-Masin; Washington Town send, a member of the Bar; E. B. Moore, editor of the American Repub lican, and David Meeoukey, a wealthy hanker. They ail fully and unreserv edly endorse Mr. Hickman's views, ac cording to their own statement, so that further comment by me is rendered un necessary.

From the Lancaster Intelligencer. I.ET IIVERY (MTIIOMF I.V 3'KNVSYI.- VlMi BEAD. Brt.inl Trrtnu , iit of Sisters st offen sive manner possible. One of the most intelligent, wealthy and respectable citizens of Frederick, Maryland, sends us the following state ment of an occurrence, which shows in its true light the bigoted and tyranni cal character of the vain upstart whois the Radical candidate for Governor of Pennsylvania. Wegiva tho facts in his own language: To the JSditors of the Intelligencer : DEAR SIRS;— It occurs to me that justice demands that the rude and bru tal manner in which some Sisters of ('liarity were treated by John W. Geary, should be known, in order that the ( atholie citizens of Pennsylvania may understand the character and the spir it of the man who appeals to them for support at the coining gubernatorial e lection. The facts wil 1 be Mifficient with out any comment, though you are of course at liberty to use them as you see fit. In the fall of 1861, under protection of a pass from General Scott, some four or five Sisters of Charity left the St. Jo seph's House at Emmitsburg on their mission to nurse the sick and wounded soldiers of both armies. They had per mission tovisitany point along the line of contest from Winchester to Rich mond, as theirservices might be need ed. While traveling on the ears of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad, under per mission from the commander in chief at Washington to go where they pleas ed in discharge of the duties of theirsa cred mission, they were arrested at Point of Rocks by Col. John W Geary. In a rude manner they with their bag gage were removed from the cars and left among crowds of soldiers and rough camp followers, sitting without shelter on their trunks by the roadside. 11 was not until after repeated solicitations that Col. Gearv consented to grant an inter- view to the principal sister, a lady of education and refinement, as were Her a—ociates. Finally this military digni tary jyave orders to have her led into his august presence hv a guard. In vain did she explain fully t lie char itable character of her holy mission; in vain didsheexhibit the general and un restricted pass given her by the Com mander-in-Chief at Washington, au thorizing iier togo, with her associates, wherever their holy mission might call them, or wherever they might be need ed to nurse the wounded and console the dying; in vain did she beg to be allowed to proceed as several parties of Sisters had been allowed to do unmolested he- fori-, over the same route; in vain did shespeakof tlie crying wants of the wounded, the sick, the dying soldiers of the i'nion army, to relieve and suc cor whom was a great part of her mis sion ; in vain did she assure this petty tyrant (deary) that she had nursed the sick and wounded soldiers of all parties in the Crimean war, without molesta tion or hindrance, receiving from Turk and Hu-sian no less courtesy and kind ness than she did from Frenchman or Englishman; in vain did she protest with tearful entreaties against such u sage iu her native iand, after having traveled on a similar mission all ovef Europe unmolested. John \\ . deary, a bigot by nature and a petty tyrant in his position, thrust herand her compan ions into the cars and sent them back to I Frederick City, on their way to the House of St. Joseph, from which they came. The .Surgeon General at Frederick, a high-toned gentleman, ami a native of Philadelphia,hearing of the manner in which the Sisters of Charity had been treated by Geary, and fearing the dam aging effect which such brutal conduct would have upon the many thousands of Catholic soldiers who were fighting in the front ranks of the army, at once despatched an orderly to Gen. Banks, at headquarters uear Poolsville, with a let ter eontainingastuternent of the conduct of General Geary, which letter will be found officially recorded on the books of the Medical Director. The Adjutant af ter ridingall night, returned to Freder ick withanimperativeorder, command ing General Geary to escort in person and place safely on the .Southern side of the Potomac the said Sisters of Charity, and to give to them every assistance to aid them in the discharge of their sacred mission of mercy. With what grace he could after his brutal conduct, Geary did escort them beyond the Potomac after having endeavored to himself upas superior to the Commander iu-( "hief. Any soldier who wa- under Geary at Point of Rocks at the time alluded to will rememiier his treatment of these Sisters of Charity. lie will not dare to deny one word of the above statement. If he should the Medical Director and the Bisters will testify to the entire truthfulness of what is here written. The above facts have been furnished in the shape in which theyappear, as wehave stated, byoneofthe wealthiest, .most intelligent and honorable men in the City of Frederick. They show what a mean and miserable bigot John W. Geary is. We hope our cotemporaries will give the statement a wide circula- Stliis-tisisf tiif Trull). The editor of the Independent, who has been in full consultation with his party, says: '' No lending Republican in Congress means lo ad.■nil the ten w<:ting States simply cm the adoption of the constitu tional amendment-. These States are to be admitted on 110 conditions short of the equal political rights of their loyal citizens, without distinction of race. A reconstruction of the Union 011 any oth er basis would be a national dishonor. Until the rebel States can come back 011 this basis, they shall not come back at all." This is a frank and free admission.— TheSouth inay adopt furry constitution al amendments—but can never be read mitted into the Union until negroes vote there.— X. Y. Express. <;KN. OKA VI OX THE WITXHS M AM). A Ktrorbrtt'lt ur The Philqjlclphia imday Mercury has the following among its special tel egrams from Washington: Washington, Sept. ±l.— Gen. Grant denies the reports put in circulation concerning his preferences as regards a vote in your State. The General says "his record is that of a soldier, and he has condemned the practice of officers making political capital off of the rec ords of the army." It is not in accord ance with his way of doing things. The General regrets exceedingly that his name has been mixed up with local politics. The report, as published, is a tissue of falsehoods. Gen. Grant never made use of the language attributed to him. He is a warm supporter of the President's policy, and is doing all in his power to influence every one to the same way of thinking. The niNitiiioiiists. Henry Wilson, United States Sena tor, addressed a Radical meeting in In dianapolis on Saturday night, and said that the promotions of such men as Granger, Custer and other soldiers who attended the Cleveland Convention would not be confirmed by the Senate. A preacher named MeMullen followed in a speech in which he said, that the assassination of President Johnson would not be a very serious calamity. This is the precise style of the Rev. Mr. Hunnicutt, one of the Southern loyalists, traveling with Hamilton and Brownlow. Mr. Brownlow, by the way, in his Cleveland speech, last week dis coursed of his future state as follows: If God, in His providence, should call me off, I have 110 fears of the con sequences beyond the grave, if the books have been correctly kept in the upper world, as I have no doubt they have been, there will be a small bal ance in my favor. And such is the blasphemy which finds applause amongthe Radicals.—.V. Y. Repress. Uviil S;>irit of ! !".■ Radicals I awards ••Foreigners." The real spirit of the Radicals tow ards theadopted citizens, though of late hidden for a few weeks under their at tempt to curry favor with what they call "the Irish vote," is developed in all its natural beauty by a recent visit of an Irish delegation to the President. Says the N. Haven Journal 1 Radical): "This is the first attempt in our his tory of a foreign organization to rule America, and the meeknc— of the Pres ident, under the insult offered him, will only hasten his ruin." They Must he Kducatcd to it. The working men who vote the Re- I publican ticket—at lea.-1 many of them, I cannot be made to believe that their leaders really intend to place them on lan equality wiih the Negro. They will I come to it by degrees. Their leaders are good "levellers," as witness this speech of Horace Maynard, at Athens, i Tenn., 011 the Hist of August: And I tell you, gentlemen, that in a j short time all this complaint about ne- I gro equality will be done away with. VOL. 61.—WHOLE No. 5,367 Some months since it was said that the negro would not he suffered to testify in your courts —that his oath would not be granted him. Rut how stands the matter already? He is not only permit ted to testify in your courts with impu nity, hut there is every evidence that he will soon be on a social equality with the white man in your Stale. Yes, gen tlemen, in a short time he will marry and intermarry in your families. It is a little objectionable to-day, but you will soon get over this, and the perse cuted negro will be welcome in your parlors. This will be the result of the political and social changes of the next few months. AIIIIKF.SN OF TIL K DEMOCR ATIC STATE < EXTIt A E CO M MITTKE. DBMOCBATIC STATE COMMITTEE ROOMS. ) S2B WALNCT ST.,PHILADELPHIA. < To the People of Pennsylvania: The Democratic party in its platform of principles, adopted at Harrisburg, on the sth day of March, IS6O, resol ved 1. That the States whereof the peo ple were lately in rebellion are integral parts of the Union, and are entitled to representation in Congress,hymen du ly elected, who bear true faith to the Constitution and laws, and in order to vindicate the maxim that taxation without representation is tyranny, such representatives should be forth with admitted. 2. That the faith of the republic is pledged to the payment of the national debt, and C ingress-hould pass all laws necessary for that purpose. 3. That the white race alone is enti tled to the control of the government of the republic, and we are unwilling to grant to negroes the right to vote. Upon tills platform we placed our candidate for Governor, and with these principles we confidently look for suc cess in this contest. Our opponents in their Convention, held at Harrisburg, on the 7th day of March, 1 StUi, also, adopted a platform, and nominated a candidate. The prin ciples they enunciated appear to be lost sight of, and the proposed constitution al amendment takes their place as the rule of Radical orthodoxy, and to it their candidate gives his unhesitating support. Negro equality and negro suffrage are theessential element-in that amend ment. By it the negro is made the e qual of the white man in all his "priv ileges and immunities." The right of Pennsylvania to make laws to regulate the migration of negroes into the State is denied and she is deprived of her just share of representation inCougress unless her Constitution be amended and the negro allowed to vote. The Radical candidates for Governor and for U. S. Senator; their leaders of public sentiment; their speakers and their newspapers are open advocates of this amendment, and their practice ac cords with their profession, for they mingle with the negro in social inter course, in political conventions, and in public processions. We hold that the negro is not the e qual of the white man, and, whilst we accord to him freedom and protection of person, with the right to enjoyment of the fruit- of his labor and aid in in tellectual advancement, we affirm that our own race is entitled to control the entire machinery of the government. SiistaiUi this amendment, and you give the negro the right to aid in gov erning you; defeat it and you maintain your own right of sovereignty. Everyman who rotes for Geary or for a Radical candidate for Congress, rotes as distinctly for negro suffrage and negro equality as if they were printed on his ballot. DEMOCRATS OF PENNSYLVANIA! Power is no longer against you, but ranges itself upon your side. Oppor tunities for fraud do not exist. Aid comes to you from the ranks of the en emy. No Democrat who voted for Me- Cleilan votes against you now; your brethren are aroused from the Lakes to the I lelaware. A change of five per cent, upon the vote of ISfii will sweep your opponents out of existence. You can count it in every election district in the Commonwealth: audit' you will but execute the details of your organi zation, success is certain. Faith in your principles, courage in the contest, and a determination to poll every Conservative vote, are the only requisites to an assured victory. By order of the Democratic .State Committee. WM. A. WALLACE, Chairman. GEN. BUTLER, who, we believe, in tends to slump Pennsylvania for Gen. Geary, indicated his preference for ne gro suffrage, last week in this emphatic manner: "Had the negro been armed, the re sult would have been far different. We armed him with the musket when he was tit to use it; shall we not arm him with the ballot ! There is a preju dice against the negro on the question of labor. When the labor-saving ma chinery was introduced into England, the laboring classes rose and destroyed it, because they thought it would take away the work that brought them bread. "Suppose we were only looking for expediency. The States must come back. We want a loyal constituency in those States. Where will they come from ? .Is a matter of self-protection, as j a matter of economy, the negro must hare I a vote." (ASTF FOR THE BEACH NALDIKB. Promises for •!)'

Geary calls his fellow soldiers, "Shys ters and Cowards, Skulkers and Hos pital Bummers." Geary says: "I am not prepared to deny the Right of Voting to the Col ored Man." The Torch unci Turjrvutiite Way to !'* Constitutional Amendments. From the New York World, Sept. 24. Greeley is making a feeble effort to represent himself and his fellows of the Radical party as having a civil war forced upon them by President John son. Poor innocent lambs!—(sheep, perhaps, would he a better word for the "just once" hero) —see how the'tender hearted and long-suffering disciples of the Torch-and-Turpentine gospel strug gle desperately to avert further trouble. Forney, at Lackawanna, there threat ened a Torch-aud-Turpentine war un les- the Southern States accept the con stitutional amendment—'which the Her ald join- in trying to force upon them. 'Hiis is his language: "If the Southern people do not ratify this (negro-equalization) amendment, or if they defeat it, what then? I think I see by the glitter of your eyes, and I know by the throbbing of my heart, that if they should ever he guilty of this new infatuation, the war that would ensue would establish this fact, that that which has passed was as hut child's play, or as a pic-nic, to that which will come. The army that will go to the Southern country willgo there to stay; it will not be an army of inva sion but an army of migration; it will not go there to revenge, but to extir pate. Brownlow's remedy will indeed be tried; there will be three columns, the one to kill, the second to burn, the third to divide the plantations among the men that go down the second time to avenge the insulted flag of our coun try. I see this sublime resolve in the glitter of your eyes, and i feel it in the throbbing of my heart—l feel it every where—l hear it in the trumpet voice of destiny. That we shall not prevail against these men is to expect that God is dead." Sent isiieilts. At a Radical meeting in New York, last week, John Cochran said, "that those before him who had been mus tered out of service were now called upon once more to prepare to take up the musket for the maintenance of those principles for which they had fought for four years." The speaker was loudly applauded by the audience, his warlike strains ev idently touching a sympathetic chord in the breast of his hearers. When he exclaimed: "Woe, woe betide that peo ple which forgets its debt of gratitude to the negro race," cheers and applause greeted the sentiment. The concluding portion of his remarks was to the effect that the service rendered to the country by negroes during the war entitled them to the right of suffrage. Gen. Barlow, the radical candidate for Secretary of the State ot New York, also declared in favor of negro suffrage, and demanded that the Republican par ty should come square up to that work. Horace Greeley addressed the meet ing, and -aid: He wanted a Govern ment under which all loyal men, re gardless of color, should have equal rights, lie was going to tight it out on that line, and he hoped all true Amer ican- would take the same stand. Mr. Greeley was loudly applauded. A series of resolutions were r&uland adopted. They were essentially a rep etition of the Syracuse platform, with the addition of one in favor of negro suffrage. *rhe American Republican says that "Black is the loyal color at the South, as white is the disloyal." This is not complimentary toßrownlowandßotts. The same paper in a later issue ad vocates negro suffrage, and says that— "THE BLACKS IN AN EMINENT DE CREE SAVED TIIE COUNTRY DURING THE WAR." Let us see about this: White troops in service, 2,154.311. Negro troops in service, 180,000. There were just twelve times as ma ny white troops in the service as there wore black ones, and yet the negroes, we are told, "saved the country." The wh i te soldiers are asked to endorse this infamous sentiment by voting for Geary. NEAR Bellville, Texas, lately, three men had a desperate tight with a mon ster rattlesnake, fourteen feet long and six inches thick! They killed him. He had forty-two rattles, indicating that he was forty-five years old. A SQUAD of negroes was lately im ported into Bellefonte and put to work on laying down the water pipes. The disunion contractors refused to employ white men. Elect Gen. Geary, and that I will be the result in all parts of the State.
