Bloody It ll it Mass Meeting. The opening of the campaign by the Un ion party, in this county, on Saturday last, at Bloody Run, was a splendid success. Ihe day was clear and bright, an augury of bright political skies, and of the success that must attend our cause. The delega tion from Bedford, as it entered the town with banners proudly floating, the Union Brass Band playing patriotic airs, and in the midst a veritable Coon , alive and wide awake recalling the days of 40, was greeted with enthusiastic cheers. The meeting was organized by the election of the following officers : President, LEWIS KOONS. Esq., Vice Presidents ; Jacob Barndollar, John Sparks, Edmund Triinbath, David Poor, C'apt. Josiali Hissong, Dr. J. A. Mann, Joseph Fisher, Esq., H. C. Penrod. Capt. J. C. [lawman, WEI. 11. Wcisel and John L. Grove. Secretaries; Lieut. W. \Y. Sparks, C. C. Garlick, Lieut. W. P. Barn dollar and Thomas Farber. The issues of the day were ably discussed by J. M. Long anecker, Esq., M. A. I'omts, Esq., lion. John Cessna, J. B. Cessna, Esq., Hon. G. W. Householder and Rev. J. Gogley. The speeches were listened to with intense in terest and frequently interrupted with roars of applause. Republicans from Snake Spring, Monroe and the two Providences were on hand by hundreds, and the greatest enthusiasm prevailed throughout the vast audionse during the entire after noon. The whole affair passed off splendid ly and to the entire satisfaction of all par ticipants except a few copperheads present, who turned away with elongated countenan ces, as they witnessed this first grand dem onstration of the campaign, convinced that a trip to the head waters of Salt River was a fixed fact in the Copper-johnson programme for October.

Danger is at Hand. This has been a sickly season. The medical faculty prophesy evil in the future. Thoy think pestileni cis on the wing for America. Suppose this to b,c true, what is the best defense against it? REDOUBLED NERVOUS VIGOR. This is the only protection against PANIC, as well as against the PRINCIPLE OF INFECTION. Why do not those who predict the epidemic pro pose an adequate preventative? There Is one; a tunic, nervine and alterative, competent to ihicld the system against the subtle elements of disease, whether they float hither on toe winds from dis tant lands, or rise like vapor from our own soil, or arc incorporated with the universal fluid. This ONE FRKVENTIVE, of which there is no du plicate among the compounds cither of tho Old World or the New, is nOSTETTER'S STOMACH BITTERS. Remember that it is a specific for all the com laints which lay the system open to visitations of deadly epidemics. If you are dyspeptic, it re news the vigor of your digestive powers, gives you appetite, and restores your cheerfulness. If you are nervous, it invigorates every fibre of your nervous system, front the base of the brain, where it begins, to the extremities, where it terminates. If you are bilious, it disciplines your unruly liver and brings the action of that organ into harmony with the laws of health. It is, in short, an iuvig orant and alterative so powerful that Nature, with Ilostcttcr's Bitters for her ally, may bid defiance alike to native malaria and foreign infection. If this enemy we hear of, this disease which is deso lating Europe, is really bound hitherward, it be hooves the prudenttoput on their armor, to clothe themselves with invulnerability as far as human means will permit, by preparing the system for resistance with this pure vegetable antidote. sop7,lin COVIiH.fOLB, OR SORE THROAT Requires immediate attention and should bo cheeked.

A meeting of the True and Tried Democ racy, was held in the Court House, in Bed ford, on the evening of Saturday, Sept. 22d, 1866. That firm and reliable Demo crat, Col. JOSEPH W. TATE, was unani mously chosen President of the meeting. After several able and eloquent, addresses had been delivered, on motion of Hon. BENj. P. METERS, Editor of the Bedford Gazette, and present Democratic candidate for Senator in this District, Col. TATE was called upon to address the meeting. The Colonel responded in his usual able end eloquent manner. After the discussing the issues of the day the Colonel cloquqptly exclaimed : "I believe that Providence had a hand in the removal of Abra ham Lincoln. I believe that the name of J. Wilkes Booth will live; that he laid down his life for his country, like Winklereid. Switzerland had her Winklereid and her Win. Tell; Scotland had her Robert Bruce, and America her Booth. THE TIME IS COMING WHEN THERE WILL BE A MONU MENT ERECTED TO BOOTH, HIGH ER THAN THE SPIRE OF LINCOLN, who sleeps beneath the sod of Illinois." "I am one of those men of an other country, who wear on their Coat of Arms the HAND and the DAGGER." The Colonel countinued qt some length in the same eloquent aud patriotic strain, ut tering only sentiments of a truly Democrat ic character, and retired in the midst of great applause. In the Bedford Gazette of Jan. 1861, O. E. SHANNON. Esq., Democratic candidate for Prothonotary, in a card published over his own signature, in speaking of a debate in the Bedford Lyceum, uttered the follow ing patriotic uud truly Democratic senti ments. "'I distinctly said, however, that I would not light at all in such an unnatural war—that I was like some of my Republican friends, I would prefer staying at home; but, IF I WERE COMPELLED TO PULL TRIGGER, I HOPED IT WOULD BE WHEN THE MUZZLE OF MY GUN WAS POINTED NORTH." Speaking of the abolition of Slavery in the District of Columbia, B, F. Meyers said : "Congress is, truly, already in sane. The conduct of that body would have made a Secessionist of Job, if he had been a slave holder.*'—Gazette, April 18,1862. * Speaking of the J>raft hr> wkid : "But let not Congress and the Administration build false hopes upon this patriotic submission. Let it not be expected that Penn sylvania will again uncomplain ingly respond to a similar call lor conscripts. The people of this State have given their last man to this bloody, though Utopian crusade, and until the President and Congress revoke their aboli tion programme, a demand from them for more troops from this State will be worse tuan useless.' —Gazette, Jan. 23, 1863. On the same subject Meyers said : "We say to Congress stay your encroaching hand, lest you wake the sleeping lion of Pennsylvania's pride! We say to the President, make not a Dionysius of yourself, for there are yet Damons among the people of the North, who will dare to resist any usurper."— Bedford Gazette , Feb. 27, 1863. In speaking of the Provost Marshall Myers said: "When the President shall see tit to undertake an enforcement of the Conscription, we shall look with some anxiety and more cu riosity for the name of the wretch who will not scruple to disgrace himself, and the community in which he lives, by accepting this odious office. Let that man, whom ever he may be, make up his mind that he can not live a peaceful life, nor die an honorable death." —Gam zette, March 13, 18G3. In tlie speech of Tleister Clyroer at Un iontown, as reported for the Pittsburgh Post, the Democratic Organ of Alleghany county, Pa., we find the following passage : "By the assassination of Abra ham Lincoln, Andrew Johnson became President of the United States. If, under his administra tion, harmony should come again to the land, who will not see in THE AUSPICIOUS EVENT the spirit of God moving over the troubled waters." "1 AM GLAD OF IT." In his speech at Niagra Falls, President Johnson said : "I have always had an exalted idea of the position of Senator; hut notwithstanding I was placed upon the ticket for the Vice Pres idency, I am free to say that 1 did not seek the place. Biu friends of the country, friends that were personal to me, were anx ious that I should be on the tick et. I was placed there. I ac cepted it; the race was run, the victory was obtained, attfl I ,was made Vice President of the Uni ted States. Can't you see the graduation comes along regularly? And, the by the Constitution of the country, I have Iteen made President. lam glad of it" COLLAPSE OE THE COPPER JOHNSON COALITION. The President, admonished by the defec tion of Raymond, Weed, Bennett, Beecher, &c., and the overwhelming rebuke of "My Policy" evidently pendiug over the whole countiy, has actually been frightened into terms and has industriously set himself to work opening up communication with the Southern Governors with a view to the adoption of the Constitutional amendments. This is the result of but a few volleys of loyal thunder. By the time the batteries open along the whole line t iere will not be a vestige of the traitorous crew left to tell the tale of their discomfiture. The Sheriff still Refuses to ' Incor porate the Disfranchising Act in his Proclamation. The Secretary of the Commonwealth has furnished the High Sheriff of Bedford county, uuder the broad seal of the Slate, a copy of the Disfranchising act, as passed by the Leg islature and approved by the Governor, but he obstinately refuses to intert it in his Proc lamation, thus setting at defiance a law on the statue books of Pennsylvania. It is the only instance that has come to our notice. A PROSECUTION FOR MISDEMEANOR IN OFFICE HAS BEEN COMMENCED AGAINST HIM. THE SAME PENALTY SHALL BE VISITED UPON EVERY OFFICER OF ELECTION BOARDS, OR OTHER PERSONS, WHO SET THE LAW AT DEFIANCE, and the matter shall not stop here: WE SHALL GO TO THE NEXT LEGISLATURE AND SECURE A CHANGE OF VENUE, AND TRY THE CASES IN SOME COUNTY WHERE COPPERHEAD JURIES CANNOT SCREEN THEIR FRIENDS. ANDREW JOHNSON FROM 1861 TO 1865. Andrew Johnson defends his present course by asserting that he stands where he did when elected Vice President, and that the Republican party has left him and not he them. The following extracts from his speeches from 1861 to 1865 show how much truth there is in his assertions. Stevens is not more bitter and radical than Andy John son in the following : "Who is it that has fired upon our flag ? Show me the man who has been engaged in these conspiracies, and I will show you a traitor.'' "Were I the President, I would have them arrested and tried for treason, and if convict ed, by the eternal God they should suffer the penalty of the law at the tiands of the execu tioner." —Andrew Johnson, March 2, 18*1. "While society is in this disordered state, and we are seeking security, let us fix the foundations ot the Government on the princi ples of eternal justice." —Audrew Johnson, ■June, 1804. "I will be your MOSES. LOYAL MEN, WHETHER WHITE OR BLACK, SHALL ALONE CON TROL the destinies of Tennessee."—Andrew "TREASON MI ST BE MADE ODIOUS and trait ors must be punished and impoverished."— Andrew Johnson, April 3, 1865. "In the work of reconstruction traitors must take back seats. The traitor has ceased to be a citizen. He forfeited his right to vote with loyal men when he renounced his citi zenship."—Andrew Johnson, June 0, 1864. "As Goes Pennsylvania so (noestlie The Gubernatorial election in Pennsylva nia will be all one way. Major Gen. Geary will undoubtedly be elected by a majority that will settle the question at issue in all the other loyal States, and retivethcold proverb, "As goes Pennsylvania so goes the Union." Thousands of the supporters of President Johnson cannot conscientiously vote for Iliestcr Clymer, and the President himself cannot desire the defeat of such a candidate as Geary. The chief importance of the Pennsylvania election, therefore, is in its bearings upon the next Senatorship.— New York Herald, Sept. 17. North Carolina State Convention — Consti tut ion at Atn end men t Endorsed. RALEIGH, N. C., September 20 At a State meeting of unconditional Union men of North Carolina, held in Raleigh, to day, Hon. Alfred Dockery was nominated for Governor. The Constitutional Amend ment was unanimously endorsed. It is the only issue between the two parties of the State, Ex Governor Holden. who was cho sen President, delivered an able address heartily endorsing the candidate and the .platform. Letters from distinguished Union men were received from different parts of the State, pledging their support to the move ment. Dockery stands boldly on the Howard amendment and the whole basis, which Gov. Holden says will give him a large majority in ihc western part of the Stato, and with [t)C Vni.i! of the rest of tlie S'"'" mow eleo* him. Erogress of the Southet a Loyalist ■. ERIE, Pa., Sept. 20. A part of the Southern Loyalist party ar rived this morning and addressed a laige meeting. Mr. Brownlow was veiy ill and failed in an attempt to speak at the depot, lie was so weak as to require assistance to stand and passed directly on to Cleveland. The rest of the party arrived this afternoon, and all passed on under charge of a recep tion committee from Cleveland, headed by Mayor Chapin, at Conncaut, Ashtubla and Panesville. Large crowds greeted the loyal ists with cheers and bonfires. CLEVELAND, Sept. 20. The train arrived in a pelting rain. The party was met by an immense crowd and es corted to the Jlotel by bands of music, transparencies and a torch light procession, amid fire works and shoutiDg. A meeting is arranged for to morrow, which promises to be a large one. Ox the presidential journey, while speeches were going on at Niles, Michigan, tue plat form broke down, and Seward, Welles,^ and Postmaster-General Randall Doolittle, Grant and Farragut tumbled with L. The President was left standing on the very edge with the representative of the town vho was address ing him. The only person seriously hurt was a citizen of the place, who lad an artery cut. Farragut's hand was scrafched. and he de clared it was the first wounf he had received during the war. Seward, as he rose, cried out; "This is not our platform"; and was answered, "You were standng on it." The Postmaster-General, who fel on top ofbteed man, congratulated himself on his luck in always falling in Boft places. MASSACRE. Terrible Outrages on Union Men in Idattc City, Missouri.— The Rebels Rise til Arms to Break Up a Rermb Itcan Convention They Declare no t niontstshall Remain, in the To wn. —Four Men Killed and a A umber Badly Wounded. LEAVENWORTH, Bent. IV. A blooodv and fearful tragedy occurred 3t I atte City, Missouri, on Saturday lust, the Radical Convention assembled at the church in Platte city on that day. There were one hundred men, including visiting delegations. _ The convention put in nomin ation a lull ticket, and adjourned about 4 o, clock, fi. M. Just Wore adjouonment the rebels brought a band of music upon the street, which played "Dixie," "The Bon nie Blue Flag," Ac., and soon gathered about them a large crowd of armed men. A (nion man, Thomas Dunnigan, being very noisy upon the street, the Sheriff went to liirn and was in the act of quieting him, when a constable named Callahan, of noto rious rebel record, came up with a posse of ol men and pointed out Dunnigan, who stood beside the Sheriff, saying, "There he i 3 —take hiin," or words to that effect. Im mediately the rebels, who had assembled to the number of four hundred, commenced firing upon every Union man upon the street, hour were instantly Killed and a large num ber wounded. The bushwackers drove the Union men out of the town, and four hun dred rebels now hold possession of it. A Mr. Heath visited Platte City to get hie brother's body, but was not allowed to take it away. They gave him a pass to get out of town through their picket lines. " The first shot was fired by a rebel consta ble upon a drunken unarmed Unionist. Members of the convention who had left, hearing the shooting, returned to Piatt® City, and while riding through the streets were fired upon from the windows of houses and saloons. Many horses were shot from under the delegates. Four men were killed and twelve wounded. The extras caused freat excitement here. Gov. Fletcher has een telegraphed to. He will be at Weston to morrow to attend a mass meeting there. The Unionists have all been driven to Wes ton. The rebels are all around, and swear no Unionist shall remain in Platte City. The latest accounts say that several hun dred armed rebels bold Platte City, and have driven all the Union men out of town, and swear they shall not return. Great excite ment exists. Governor Fletcher has been apnlicd to for force to put down the mob. Ah accounts agree that Dunnigan was un armed when Callahan's party attacked him. LATER THE AFFAIR AT PLATTE CITY. ST, LOUIS, Sept. 18. —The Democrat's (St. Joseph) special dispatch says an eye witness pf the affair at Platte City, Missouri, on Saturday, states that the conduct of the rebels, the arms they carried and their numbers leave no doubt they came into the town to break up the Radical County Con vention. Four men were killed and three or four others will probably die. The affair creates a profound sensation, and serious troubles are apprehended. THE DESERTER LAW. We would call especial attention to the following provisions of the Disfranchising act which Sheriffs are required to publish in their Election Proclamation: WHEREAS, By the act of the Congress of the United States, entitled, "An act to amend the several acts heretofore passed to provide for the enrolling and calling out the national forces, and for other purposes/' and approved March third, one thousand <1 *nrl oJv#ty.ftv/v oil rnrurMiw who have deserted the military or naval ser vice of the United States, and who have not been di seharged or relieved from the penalty or disability therein provided, are deemed and taken to have voluntarily relinquished and forfeited their rights of citizenship and their rights to become citizens, and are de. prived of exercising any rights ot citizens thereof; and WHEREAS, Persons not citizens of the United States arc not, under the constitu tion and laws of Pennsylvania, qualified electors of this Commonwealth: SECTION 1, Beit enacted, etc., TIIAT IN ALL ELECTIONS HEREAFTER TO BE HELD IN THIS COMMON WEALTH, IT SHALL BE UNLAW FUL FOR THE JUDGE OR INSPEC TORS OF ANY SUCH ELECTION TO RECEIVE ANY BALLOT OR BAL LOTS, FROM ANY PERSON OR PERSONS EMBRACED IN THE PRO VISIONS AND SUBJECT TO THE DISABILITY IMPOSED BY SAID ACT OF CONGRESS.
