Radical Pow-wow.—'The Radicals of this county held a council of war in the court house on Tuesday evening of court. It was the most complete fail ure we have ever seen. True, there were a good many people there but they were mostly Democrats who went thitherto hear what arguments were to be advanceed to induce honest men to vote for that huge compound of igno rance and vanity—that corrupt and imbecile "King of the Ring, Hans Geary. Rut I> (>or Hans was sadly slighted by the speakers. There were none so poor to do hiin reverence. Lougeneekeropened the fall campaign with a "piece" tolerably well spoken, but with nothing in it. Next was in troduced a bashful youth from Hunt ingdon, surnamed Lytle or Little, who said so little and so little to the purpose that lie was unanimously voted a fail ure of the first water. The only truth he uttered was, that Packer and Persh ing were both honest men. This was not relished by his radical audience. He took good care, however, not to in sult the people of Bedford county by asserting that Hans Geary was honest or capable. After this little talk by the fellow from Huntingdon, came the übiqui tous John, with the same old abuse of Democrats, uttered with the same shrill howl that trooly loil shreekers like he only know how to make. John complained of a blister on his tongue, and said he used to get small blisters when ne told lies for the Democrats. The present affliction was of a more se rious nature—the blisters being larger —and is, no doubt, attributable to the huge lies he told when ho made those solemn pledges in the hall of the steep roofed house. Rut John must remem ber that the people of this district will soon have another chance at him, and then he will get a blistering that he will not soon forget. We discovered nothing new in 'our member's' speech. The same tirade of abuse against the men with whom he was butashort time ago politically connected —the same self-praising spirit which characterizes all his speeches, was re-hashed to his audience on Tuesday night. Rut even the people of this county are getting tired of his talk, for long before he was through, the room was almost cleared, and the speakers who were held in re serve, had to go home without l>eing permitted to give the audience their quota to this political feast. RA I LKOA D M ICE N XG. — Bedford must have a Hail road.—A large num ber of the citizens of Bedford, pursuant notice given, assembled in the Court House, on Thursday evening, the 9th inst., for the purpose of making preliminary arrangements for the hol ding ola railroad meeting during the term of a special Court, commencing on the 27th inst.; at which time one or several propositions for the construct ing of a railroad to this point, it is ex pected, will be submitted. The meeting was called to order by the selection of Hon. George \V. Gump as Chairman, and J. B. Dur borrow, as Secretary. The object of the meeting was sta ted at length, by Hon. Alexander King, who stated in the course of his remarks, that he had an interview a week or two since with Col. Jas. Worral, Pres ident of the South Pennsylvania Rail road Company ; a company chartered by the Legislature of Pennsylvania in the-year 18-74, to run from Harrisburg through Bedford and other counties, to points in Western Pennsylvania, who proposed to assist us in the con -truction of our road from Bedford to Bridgeport, provided, the citizens of this county were willingto avail themselves of the charter oft heSouth Pennsylvania Company, and that at the meeting con templated this proposition would in all probability,be submitted for theappro val of those who are subscribers to the stock of the Bedford and Bridgeport Railroad. Should our people conclude to accept this proposition they will be asked to invest stock in the beginning of an independent line of railroad con necting from Harrisburg west by the Pittsburg and Connellsville with Pitts burg, and the Hempfield with Wheel ing, thus forming a great through line to the Great West, the stock of which cannot fail to become as valuable as that of any of the great trunk lines. At the conclusion of his remarks, Mr. King moved that a committee of tive be appointed for the purpose of ma king arrangements for the holding of a I meeting during the term of our special Court, and subsequent meetings, if ne cessary ; and that the committee corres pond with Col. James Worrall and se cure his attendance at the time of hol ding the meeting stated ; which was unanimously adopted. The Chair appointed Hou. Alexan der King, John Lutz, Esq., HonJ.Sam uel L. Russel, Jacob Reed and Thom as M. Lynch, said committee. Brief speeches were then made by J. R. Durborrow, John Lutz, and Sam uel Lysinger, Esqs. On motion, the meeting adjourned to meet at the call of the committee. The feeling manifested was of a much better order than we have heretofore witnessed at Bedford railroad meetings. Everybody admits the feasibility of the proposition. The Republican Silver Band enliven ed the occasion with choice music, for which they have the thanks of the meeting. GEORGE W. GUMP, ,J. R. DURBORBOW, Pres't. See'y.
