Democratic Meetings.
During the last two weeks meetings
have been held by the Democracy in
everv portion of this county. These
meetings were unusually well atten
ded. We give below a notice of the
majority of them, with lists of officers
so far as the same have been reported
to us.
Southampton. —Meetings were held in
Southampton at Adams' Mill and Mo-
Elfish's Mill which were well attended.
Speeches were made by J. \V. Dicker
son and W. C. Schaeffcr, Esqs.

township at Fletcher's store and Cloar
ville. At both places the turnout was
good. Speeches were made by J. \Y.
Dickerson and W. ('. Schaeffer, Esqs.
Cumberland Valley. —Saturday, the
;>rd, was a gala day for the people of Cen
treville. The Democracy of "Little
Berks" held a council of war prepara
tory to making a grand charge on the
enemies of constitutional liberty, at the
polls on next Tuesday. A great many
people were present. Southampton
was there with her beautiful banner,
which she received u few years ago for
her devotion to the principles of De
mocracy and right. Samuel Whip

years old) Frederick Simons, Styles

excellent music. "Little BerksisO. K."

na's was a complete success. Hundreds
o" ji'-G]>!e eame iMiuring in as the time
for the meeting arrived. The porch of
the hotei in front of which tlie meeting
was held, was beautifully wreathed
with evergreens, and nothing that
could be done to make the meeting a
splendid affair was left undone by Mr.
Cessna and his kind lady. The Bed
ford hoys will not forget the kind
treatment they received at their hands.
After partaking of a magnificent sup
per the meeting was called to order by
the selection of Isaac Clark as Presi
dent ; .J. J. Powell, David Smith, J. L.
Black, Jos. W. Elder, l)r. W. McNeal,

solid shot into the Radical camp
(fate-rain. —One of the largest political
meetings ever seen in this township,
was held at liainshurgon last Wednes
day evening. It was held in front of
the house of William McClelland where
a stand had been erected. Extensive
arrangements had been made to seat
the crowd, yet every seat was taken up

numbers. That staunch old Democrat,

P. Morgart, Gen. W. Deal, William

non, Esq., and Juo. G. Fisher. The
Democratic Baud was present and enli
vened the occasion with their choicest
music. Cole rain is awake and will give
a good account of herself at the polls.
Lilian. —Three meetings were held in
this district which were well attended.
The Radicals of Spruce Hollow, in keep
ing with the hyocritical cry of the
whole pack for tree speech, attempted
to deprive their neighbors of the use
of the school house, but an entrance
was effected and the meeting held in
spite of them. Speeches were made by
J. W. Dickerson and It. W. Berkstress
er. At Lewistown the Democracy gath

H. F. IRVINE, the Regulator man,
has just returned from the eastern cities
with the largest and best assorted stock
of goods, in his line, ever brought to
Bedford. Boots and shoes, queens ware,
glassware, notions and groceries in end
less variety.
CARPET-BAGGERS' CONCLAVE.— .4-">I
Men, Women and Children in Proees
x>on ! - Six Mnh ■ ■ and One Jwk-a** in
lim.~ The great Radical gathering
which had lioen so extensively adver
tised came off on Tuesday. And such
a meeting! The mountain laltored
and brought forth a mouse! A frieiul
who made an actual count says that
the above figures are strictly correct,
including the 8- r > men and boys from
Bloody Itau. For hours men and
boys, fitted up in military garb, were
seen galloping up and down the streets,
and we wondered what all this meant
when a knowing chap at our side in
formed us that these "boys in blue"
were about to surrender the town to
the carpet-baggers from the east. The
terms of surrender were agreed upon,
and the squad marched triumphantly
through our streets, headed by Brevet
Maj. (Jen. Daniel Cessna, son of Con
gressman "Dad." We neversupp sed
that Dan would look so well in uni
form. What a line soldier lie would
have made! What a pity that Johnny
who was willing to sacrifice everybody
else's relations, could not spare him !
Many a Radical looked blue on ac
count of the slirnness of the crowd.
There was but little enthusiasm, no
body cheering but a few boys. This
not being a coon year, not one of these
venerable old standby's of the opposi
tion party were in the procession, but
their places were supplied by a few rag
ged carpet-bags, stuck on the end of a
pole. Sic transit gloria mundi. "Let us
have peace!"
RADICAL FIZZLE.-- On last.Tuesday
evening the Rails, of this place called a
club meeting. The crowd failed to
come, but the few who were there were
distressed by the bowlings of Hal! and
a carpet-bagger by the name of
Hollow horn, who made one of the
most outrageous speeches ever listened
to. This pink of "leiltv" imagines
that in him are concentrated all the
virtues of the "God-and-morality" par
ty. He denounced Democratic sol
diersas"cowards," "deserters," "boun-
ty jumpers," Ac., and used language
which thoroughly disgusted every de
cent Radical in the room. He can be
put down as a squirt of the first water.
He got his epaulettes by stooping to
command a company of negro soldiers.
No decent white man would be found
in a body of soldiers over which he
had command. "Let us have peace!"
NOT TRUE. —The veraoiousf?) local
of the Inquirer stated last week that
the friends of Seymour and Blair had
a riot after the joint discussion at
Schellsburg. We are authorized to say
that the whole article is a gross false
hood. A few Radicals who like Grant
had been "swinging 'round the circle,"
attempted to get up a row, when the
order loving citizens interfered and
drove them off. The beilige.ent Rada.

The superior merits of the -inger Machines
over all others, for either Family use or Manu

generally admitted, that an enumeration of their
relative excellences is no longer considered neces

OUR NEW FAMILY MACHINE,
which has been brought to perfection regardless of
time, labor, or expense, is now coufiJontly pre
sented to the public as incoiup irably the Best Sew

It is quiet, light running, and

A faint idea, however, can at best be conveyed
through the medium of a (necessarily) limited ad

leading rival Machines before making a purchase.
