DEMOCR A TIC M K ETING.
Bufhnsuu Floored !
The meeting of the Democracy en Monday
night was in mere respects than one a rich af
fair. Every arrangement had been made and
rcselnMens prepared a week beforehand, by nnr
amiable and handsome friend, Col. Jos. \V.
Tate, endorsing the administration on Leeomp
ton to the fullest extent. But when the day
of meeting came, other counsels began to pre
vail. Judge Kimntell, Aleck GoffrotH and Bier,
bad come to town loud and furious against the
President's message, and tho whole Leco'mpton
concern. Towards evening of Monday the
hitherto pleasant and smiling cmntcuanco of
the Colonel begin to sadden. He was evi
dently in distress. The handful of Douglas
men had appealed to him to strike out tho Lc
couipton resolutions. He refused, declaring it
would he fatal to the Democracy of the coun
ty. They became louder in their demands,
and the Col. more obstinate. He adhered to
his bantling with all the fondness of paternity.
The pressure upon him at last became so great
that he vrKled, and the Leeompton resolutions
were remorselessly exscinded. And before
the meeting assembled, it was generally under
stood among the "knowing ones" thai the ad
ministration wis overboard. In other respects
the programme was faithfully adhered to.—
Judge Daugherty was appointed Chairman,
nnd Meyers, of the Gazette, was called upon
by Shannon to state the object of the meeting.
The defence of Mr. Meyers was too
however, to conceal the Kansas swindle. His
unlucky admissions of the Calhoun frauds were
terribly damaging. He lacked both the ingen
uity and cou: ge for tbe position. The speech
was badly committed, and displayed fearful
gips both in it ". fasts an i its logte.
When Mr. Meyers had concluded, Col. Tate
came in, followed by an imposing committee
on resoiutioas- ine words Kansas and Le
eompton were not in them from beginning to
cud. Besides some vague and meaningless cant
about popular sovereignty, they contained noth
ing but flunkeyisli and silly compliments of a
few Democratic office-holders. Fee disap
pointment among the administration men was
manifest, and the resolutions were adopted
with coliuesf aud embarrassment.
Mr. Cesna then called on W. J. Baer, Esq.
of Somerset, who was received with loud
shouts. Mr. Bier declared himself in favor
of both Buchanan and Douglas, but begged
leave to differ with the administration on the
subject of the Leeompton constitution. He
lacked the nerve, however, to speak his senti
ments boldly aud frankly. He prevaricated,
he equivocated, he balanced phrases like a
Chinese juggler. His speech, if it failed tn
seduce the administration men, had the effect
however, of inspiring doubts nmong them.
Aleck Ooffroth followed with more courage
nn 1 audacity iu the outset, against the adminis
tration, and their attempts to forec the Leeomp
ton swindle upon the people of Kansas- But
receiving in one par.t of his remarks loud
shouts of approval, which he supposed lo come
from the Black Republicans, lie became alarm
ed, made an awkward attempt to back out, re
lated a stale Somerset county auecdote, and
wilted into his cravat.
Tho treason bad now begun to do its work
among the hitherto *ecurc and confiding De
mocracy. It was evident to tho "country
members" that there was a screw loose sorne
wh re. and ibej began to call loudly upon
Tate, Cessna, and other recognized leaders, for
explanations.
J as. B. Sansom Esq., editor of the Fnlton
Democrat, who is well known to bo against tho
President's Lecouip'on scheme, was then loud
ly called for, but he bad already left the room,
to the great disappointment of many present.
At this stage, Mr. Shannon took the floor,
merely to addrcs a knot of Black Republi
cans in a remote corner of the room. They
"needn't tear heir shirts" about Democratic di
visions here to-night. They would go away
disappointed, lie had seen some of thein
leave the meeting already with their tails bo
twpctj their legs.
. Col. Jos. W. Tate, in answer to repeated
and vociferous shouts from all parts of the
house, next printed hfnrtdf. But the Col.
was not equal to the crisis. Ilis speech was
an apology. He regretted that ho could not
nr.ke long speeches, and tell stories to make
people laugh. He was not liko his friend i
Cesna, who could pour out words for a woek.
Jno. Cessna, Eq , followed next, ile ful
ly approved of what had been uttered by his
friends, Baer and Ooffroth from Somerset. A
man, ho said, might be opposed to the Kansas
policy of the administration, and still be,a '
jriend of the President, anJ a Democrat. But i
he differed from Judge Doughs in regard to '
tho necessity of submitting the Leeompton
constitution to a direct vote of the poopje, pro
vided that no fraud had been praotised in the
election of delegates.
This brought Mtj S. H. Tate to bis fcot.— i
lie in.dsK-d that the meeting bad been conven- I
ed to endorse the --dniinistrafion and would j
do so to tho fullest extent... He was in favor T
of the whole policy of James Buchanan in re
gard to Kansas. Utah and Nicaragua* and he
believed the meeting agreed with him (cries of
all right I yes I !) He reforred to the time
when he had been charged with being an ene
my of James Buchanan, and be now wanted
these gentl croen who had assumed such a defi
ant attitude, to cotne down from their lofty po
sition, and humbly take their ranks in the par
ty. He called upon the meeting to make these
genfleuien (evidently pointing to Cessna, Baer,
Ooffroth and others) "toe the mark to night,"
and there was a uiauifest disposition-among the
"faithful" who remained to carry out his pur
pose, But the Major was too lute; the admin
istration had been already defeated on the res
olutions, and their was nothing left but to ad
journ.
The meeting was a sad blunder from the be
ginning. No one will presume to deny that up
to tho night of this meeting there were not
twenty Douglas men in the couuty, and uow
thev are in the majority. You can hardly meet
a Democrat that dots uot sustain Douglas.—
Instead of putting the management iuto the
hands of blockheads and tyros, had the opening
speech been assigned to Maj. Tate, aud had
the resolutions been { laced in his keeping, the.
administration would have eoiue out with "col
ors flying." He would have marched boldly
up to the question on one hand, and he would
have taken care not to be diddled and cajoled
out of his resolutions on the other. The friends
of the administration thus failed in bringing
their heavy ordnance into tho field until tbe
day was lost. The camp had been pillaged,and
the administration iu full retreat before a blow
was struck.
The Ilarrisburg cot respondent of the North
Amerieau, states, that Messrs. Schell, of tbe
Bedford district, Turuey, of Westmoreland,
Miller of Washington, and Cress well of Blair,
all Democrat?, of tbe Pennsylvania Senate,
are against the Buchanan policy of forcing the
bogus Leco'mpton Constitution ou the people of
Kansas against their will, and go in with
Douglas. Mr. Schell's course we know,
should this prove correct, will be approved by
a large majority of bis party friends in tho
District.
ADMITTED.
On motion of 8. L. Russell, Esq., R. DE
! CHARMS BARCLAY, Esq., was, on Tuesday
evening last, admitted to practice in the sever
al Courts of Bedford Couhty.
Mr. Barclay passed a very"creditable exami
nation—one of the most thorough that any stu
dent lias ever yet undergone in our Courts.—
We understand that it is his determination to
commence the practice of the law in the office
formerly occupied by his unci", Maj. S. M>
Barclay, dee'd. We wish him success.
QUARTERLY MEETING—The last quarter
ly meeting of the M. E. Church, will com
mence to-tuorrow evening. Rev. Geo. Guyer,
the P. K., and other preachers, are expected
to be present.
There has been a protracted ' meeting going
on iu that church for several days past, and
a number have crowded around the altar.
Wo call attention to the able address of
Mr. Secretary Stanton, on the outside of this
week's paper. It clearly shows that the Free
State men in Kansas are iu the right, and that
they have been cheated and outraged in the
most shameful manner. He is a democrat, aud
for csrryiug out tbe instructions of Buchanan,
be was removed.

DIED.
On the 20th ult., Miss MARY ANN DAVID
SON, in the TOih year of her age.
The deceased died in the faith of the gospel.
She had been for many years a member of the
Presbyterian Church in Bedford, and was an
humble, confiding, prayerful chiistian. Her
life was one of frequent bereavements uud
heavy trials, but under all her afflictions she
retained to a remarkable degree her confidence
in God, and a spirit of calm resignation to the
divine will tended greatly to lighten her bur
den and stay the billows of her grief. Har
last illness wis of hut a week's coin in u mcc.—
To her pastor who saw her the evening before
her death, having just returned after an ab
sence of sever if days from home, she expres
sed her belief that her time was very shnit,
adding that she had been enabled through
grace to commit herself entirely into the hands
of her Heavenly father, and that if it was his
will that this sickness sLould ho mvf'o death she
was clad to depart and be with Christ, Sue
made bequest's to the American Bible Society,
the Presbyterian Board of Dumestio MISSIOUS,
and to the church of which she was a metuber.
This being aone she waited the coming of her
Lord. Calmly she approached the cold stream
which divides the heavenly land froiuour*,
looking with the eye of fault to the Caannn
of rust, "regardless of the dark waters which
lulled between her and the wished-for liofiio.—
Happy arc they who lay up their treasures iri
Lie* veti, for such when removed from earth are
taken, not from hut to their treasures. Bles
sed arc the dead which die in the Lord. We
have lost a dear fiicnd, but our loss is iff in
finite gain. May we, and alt lite friends of
ihe deceased Lear the voice which speaks to us
from the new-made grave, "Be ye ulso ready,
lor in i-ucti an hour es ye think not, the Son ot
rnau cotueth." T. G. K.

OR LIVER REMEDY
TIIIS IS ONE OF THE GREATEST SClEN
nfic medical discoveries ever IN l ie, ami is D li
ly working cures almost too groat to believe. It
cures as IT by inigic, ejci Ike firs! dose giring bene
fit and seldom more than or.E bottle is required to
cure any kind of I.irer Complaint, Irom the worst
Jaundice or Dyspepsia to a common head ache,
all ®I which ate the result of a Diseased Lirer.
The liver is oil) oftho principal regulators of the
human body, and when it performs its (unctions
wuil, the powers of the system arc fully DEVELOPED
The stomach is almost entirely dependent ou tlio
healthy action of the Liver for the proper per
formance otits functions. WHEN the stomach is
J 41 fault, TH > bo vrels are at fsuLt, and the whole
S* stym sutlers in consequence of one organ— the
Liver— hsring cessad to do its duty. For the
DISEASES of t'.l it orgui, one of the proprietors, lias
made it ids study, in a practice of more th M twen
ty years. to find some remedy wherewith tq coun
teract tire many derangements to whl..lt it is lia
blc.
TO provi that this remedy is at last found, any
pe'jrqon troubled with Liver Complaint in any oi IRS
forms, has but to try A bottle, and conviction is
ctrjUin.
A compound has be.tr formed by dissolving gums
and extracting th it p irt which Is scluule for tic
active virtues of tliu medicine. Tlicsj gums re
move all morbid or bad nutter from the system,
supplying iu their pi tee U healthy flow of bile, m-
VTGORUTING the stuuiach causing mod to digest well,
PURITY RUG tire blood, giving tone and beaiih to tire
whole machinery, removing the causes oftho dis
ease, ZUD effecting A radical euro without any ol
the disagreeable alter effects, It-It by using Calomel j
or Mineral poison, that are usu iily resorted to.
To ail who will folk w these directions a ctiro is :
positively guaranteed, SICK IIZADACUE can be
cured by the use of two tea-spooQsful taken s
I soon as die attack is felt.
| The Invigorator atccr fails to cure sour atonj- '
ach or the bad effoc s experienced after eating.
BUlious attacks yield teadi'jr to one bottle, and
Chronic Diarrhoea, dilticult as it is to cure, is never
troublesome to those wire take llie invigorator.
For Dyspepsia or Jaundice, nothing in iheJtonwn
world act so luily or cures so quickly as the In
vigorator. It removes ail yedowness and unnatu
ral color from tnc skin.
For Night Mare, take a dose before retiring, uud
it is warranted A suie preventative.
For Female Obstructions it is a safe and turo
remedy, as it removes tire cause of the disease.
Costfveuess cannot exist whe-E the limgoiator is
freeiy taken, while Choitc yields readily to A few
doses
It must tie Itnown tit it all theso are Liver disea
ses, or caused by a deranged Liver, and to cure
them needs a Liver medicine and one of great J uw
er. The lovigorator is such a medicine; It HIS
medicinal powers, before discovered, that
will cure all diseases vf tire Liver, no matter o. how
long sta luting, or what MAY bo their form. The
actiy'e medieiual virtues extrjetod from the gums
USED is such M to be astonishing TO all who see
their effects, foruone call use the medicine without
receiving benefit. It acts as a gentle Citliartic,
and should always be taken iu suiiicient quantities
to op.rale on the bowels gently. The best way TO
taae it is to take the medicine in the month, then
take some water AND swallow both together. IN
this way the medicine will scarcely HO lusted.
