TheConuidttee, therefore, in ;urging - the
Importance of immediateand vigorous labor,
desires' to briefly recapitulate what has been
done, the agencies and opportunities now at
its cormand, and the necessities which re
quire assistance. During the- few months
that have elapsed since the Itecenstraction
oft were passed,•this Committee has been
earnestly , at work. For the that time °ppm.-
-tunitY offered for discussion in the South of
the principles, purposes, and history, of e
Republican organization—the party of s
imnel risa.

of qtrions connected with these subjects
This purpose has been as earned fully • ut
as th means at the disposal of the Commit
tee would permit. The Committee have re
ceived,but $18,250, mainly derived from the
two Mimes of Congress. - There is noiv ex
pected from various sources sums amounting
lin all o $4,300, which will alxiiit cancel obli
gati° 'already incurred. Wish this small
amon t the Committee has sent several hun- 1
dyed pitiand documents through tlie South.
It haaSmilloyed over seventy; active and' in
telligent speakers and organizations, who
have been at work in the unreconstructed
States, and to a limited extent in Tenneasee.
Both white and colored men have been and
are now employed. In addition to those di

Jongressional district is readily attained.—
Of agents now in the field, some are at work
in every State. A Republican organization
exists in each State, the representatives of
which are in constant - correspondence with
this Committee. Union League Councils are
being rapidly formed. Oil,r agents , are all
empowered and directed td aid the ()minim-
d d Grand ,
Lion, anas the President's office is ]
located in thi3 city, we are enabled to tiring
about hannoriy of 'purpose and effort.—
Xhire ample means at the Committees dis
pas a' I, there would be no difficulty in widely
extending its operations. The demands
made far exceed its means, present and proe-.
per:dye. A large number of intelligent men,
white and colored, arc ready to - enter the
field, most of whom could be advantageously
employed. Our funds have been altogether
devoted to circulating saheb* reading mat
ter and - employing speakers and organizers.
They will tontinue to be soused. This Com
mittee cannot undertake, the establishment
or support of Republican newspapers, al
though that important agency demands at
tention. When the Military • bills became
law, there were in the South but fifteen Re-
publican, two' only of which were
&lies. There are now 90; 20 of which are
. The speediest method of establishing
a igorous Republican press, without which
rib permanent succese•can be obtained, is to
give the Republican party controle of the
State organization& This object can be per
manently seeuredprovided its importance is
appreciated and, corresponding efforts are
made. The present campaign is but a con
tinuation or the war. It has, - however, as
sumed another shape. It is no longer the
shock of armies,• but the conflict of ideas.—
The thunder of guns no longer rends the sky
or makes the earth tremble; but the ; results
for which our best lives were given are still
trembling in the balance. We contend for
the principles - for' which we fought. We
seek power, because we believe in our prin
ciples. They cannot control unless money,
the sinew of any struggle, is used to aid those
who 'work for that success. Shall we lose
an empirofrom want of this material aid?—
Shall we„'vieto:ious in the field; by defeated
at the ballot-box? It is not possible. The
needs of the hour with those who desire to
see the entire South, lately, cursed with Sla
very-and blasted by revolution, marching "to
the music of the ,Union" in the Solid column
of Republican States, are active work, ample
means, and unfaltering faith.- Your Com
mittee have faith, and can work efficiently.—
Means only are lackingto - carry each one of
the unreconstructed State* at the electionsl pro
vided for by Congress.. If adequate funds
are furnished, the party can be so organized
as to ensure the electoral vote of each regen
erated State for the Presidential standard-'
bearer of our great party. The loyal people
of the South are very' poor; they are with
us in every desire for success, but they need
assistance, both of money for political organ
ization, and of knowledge, for the best means
of effecting. it. Slavery crushed the white
friends of the nation, as well.as opposed its
colored allies. The Rebellion impoveiished
them as well as those who rebelled. Shall
we let them again be sacrificed for want •of
means to send men to them to enable them
to help themselves? In the spirit of the
foregoing resolution, we ask earnest and im
mediate work in obtaining fonds: Pressing
calls are constantly being made, to many of '
which we are wholly unable to reapond. In
view of the great object for-which we strive,
we assure our friends that $lOO now will ac
complish far more than $lO,OOO will twelve
months later.

The fallowing biagrapiliatitketch of our can

e. B. K. Sinith, Esq. ' It will be a gratifica

are of 'supporting such an able and pure
minded gentleman. . Read the biography:

ing biographical sketch of our tivorthy candi
date. Ile said:
Xcoine here to-night, My feliow-c tiums, to
perform what. is' to me a pleasant duty—to
joinwlth you In giving our adherence to the
platfoim of principles adopted .by the_great
Union Republican party of thiaState, at the
Convention lately held in Williamsport, and
In Manifesting on: satisfaction and pleasure
In the domination by that Convention; of our.
fellow-citizen, Zion. Henry W. Wilflains,ns
candidate for eleCtion to the highest judicial'
position of this Commonwealth..
While I shall express my cordial approval
of the principles enunciated in that wise, mod
erate and patriotic creed of political faith,
which breathm in every line, a love for free
dam and human rights, and mixed with no
demand for vengeance, by spingibat I would
hardly add to, or - detMet, one 'word there
from, teladi leave its'discussion to those able .
gentlemen Who may follow, and
_deVote the'
brief time allotted me upon 'this occasion in
speaking of the personal, moral, political and
judicial,character of °Ur. eindltiat%• and it is,
perhaps; 'letting that I should do •this, as I
have known Judge Williams
_longer, and
more intimately, than any person In this,
• •
My acqqantance With him . commenced
College in IS-33; classinate, ! and since that
time I have ,studied with him, taught, with
hint, and practiced in my prOfessiOn with,
and under him. I- have- known him as stu:
dent., as, - teacher, as -lawyer and 'as. Judge;
and what lEl:more, Aurnig all that . time, I
have ' know* him as an 'intimate, personal
friend.' I have known him more thoroughly
than I have ever knoty,n any other living 'mini .
axcepting my own brother, and i say
here tcvnight, in presence of this,' large
audience, that, even' Were I so • disposed, I
could truthfully speak, no ill him. • _
Julge Williams is of the good old revolu
tionary Whig stock, which achieved; our na
tional independence in 1116, and from his an
ticestors he' has inherited a. sturdy love of
ibertyi, independente, freedom and national
u*n, which. has been strenthened by the
greatevents of these later times. He .wag
in the beautiful valley of the .Conneet
icat—a State which has . given birth; to siich
men as . Henry Balt
•
thenfselvei) thtin to be
dgPendent upon. the paternal ,sarbags t .and
after baiing turnished his son with the means
of acquiring an eduation; he sent him forth
from the paternalhome; at an early age, to
rnakeihis way in the , world and fight the bat
tle•of life unaided, tare by 'his •own energy
and talents. .
In college., Judge Williams gave promise
of his futtire success. He became at once
one of the most popular men of his class,
Moved and respected by all for his correct de'
, portment, his kind antisocial disposition, his
high sense of honor, his great re,:gfird for
truth, his strict integrity, and ._for his entire
freedom from envy and jealouiy., He imme
diately took.high rank al a. scholairrespecial
ly as a speaker; a ,writer, a logician, and a
metaphysician, which• rank - he maintained
and increased during his collegiate course.—.
He gradimted at Amheri3t College, 31a.ssachu
'setts, in the summer of 1837,and so proud has
our - alma mater been of this one of her favor
ite sons that she sonic dine since honored
' herself by bestowing upon him the honora
ry degree of Doctor of laws. After spending
the intervening time hi teaching,, he corn- ,
meneed reading - law in the ollice of Ex-Chief
' Justice Lowrie, of .this city, in the spring -.of
1839, and was admitted to the . bare, of this.
county' , in Slay 134 L He practiced ' his - pro
fession with increasing succesaifrom' the time
of his admission to the bar, as a . partner with
his preceptor, until the latter was appointed
Junde of the .District CoUrt of this county,
and then with the late Wm. 31. Shinn, until
elevated for.the first time to his, pi6ent po
sition iu the fall of 1851. •I
As a lawyer, Judge Williams was a cau
tions, safe, honest and reliable. counsellor;.
and an earnest, eloquent and generally suc
cessful advocate. He endeavored to keep his
clients out of the law instead of getting them
in, but .when, In, with good cause; alibis
energies and abilities Were bent to bringing
matters to a favorable issue. His dealings
with his clients were ever characterized by
justice ; and faithfulness. While he would
never knowingly take a badsase for the sake
of the fee, he never gaverip a good one be
cause his' client was unableto pay him. His
_intercourse with his professional Ihretlieni
was always kind, courteous and honorable,
never...resorting to ;what is termed - "sharp
practice" to gain an advantage over his op
ponent..' lied he remained at the I bar, few
would have met with greater succeSs in that
most difficult, laborious and honorable pro
fession. '.
•
-
At a large and respectable Convention of
the old Whig party of this= county, held on
the 4th of Juno, 1831,. Judie Wilhams, then
young in years and in his pmfession, and
without judicial experience, without solicita-
tion on his part, was nominated by acclama
tion, for the responsible _position which he
'now holds, and was placed upon the judicial
ticket of that party with the Hon. Walter
Porward,as the candidate for President Judge
of the District Court, and Hon.; William B.
NC lure as the candidate for President Judge
of the Courts of: 'Common Pleas; &c. llis
opponent at the electiqk in the fall was Judge
Shaler, a lawyer of amlnent ability and learn
ing, who added to his other qualifications foe_
the position an experience of several years
upon the Bench,to w Lich the Democratic par
ty sought again to elevate him. The result of
the eleetion showed that the action of the
Conyention in nominating Judge :Williams. '
without a dissenting voice, was peculiarly ac
ceptable to the people. He ran ahead of his
ticket in the ward in whiCh he lived, in ¶'the
old Democratic -Third Ward," and in the
county, beating his able
.. oppoTnt 2,245,
'while Judge Forward'A major ity- ver Jude
Hepburn was only and Judge M'Clure's
over James S. Craft, only 1;117.
So well ; faithfully, impartiallrand satisfac
tory did Judge Williams discharge the duties'
of his office, and so learned, upright and use
ful a Judge did he prove himself to be, in the
ostiniation of all men, that at the lend of his
first judicial term - or ten years„ in 1861,1 in was
nominated by acclamation by the thett two.
