THE HUNTINGDON GLOBE, A DEMOCRATIC FAMILY JOURNAL, _DEVOTED TO LOCAL AND GENERAL NEWS, &C,
ceded from a County Convention, thus carry
ing disorganization to the very basis of our
principles. Their organ in the city of Phila
delphia has defiantly proclaimed that the
"Federal Administration will not do its duty
unless it brings to the block every office-hol
der who is an outspoken supporter of Douglas.
Nothing but a clean sweep will meet the de
mand of the times."
In view of such acts and expressions, is it
not apparent that their proffered compromise
is but the Grecian warrior in the uniform of
Achilles, and if we are deceived into receiv
ing him, he will spread ruin and destruction
throughout our ranks ? They are "aliens
from the Commonwealth of Israel," and with
them we can have no fellowship. The future
of our glorious party demands that we shall
preserve its organization and its principles
pure and untarnished. Shall we countenance
disorganization simply because it becomes
formidable ? No ; now arc the times to test
men's Democracy. Any person can be a sai
lor on a well rigged vessel and a smooth sea,
but it requires skill, manhood, and heroism
to face the terrific storms that shake the ship
from stem to stern, bend her proud masts,
and threaten destruction. Rebels and muti
neers must lie watched, and the brave ranks
of our true hearted men protected from de
moralization. We must purify the fountain,
or the stream with its dark impurities will
blind us, while the foes who have corrupted
it will lead us to unutterable ruin. The only
terms we can consent to make with any of
our political opponents (and we make no dis
tinction,) are, that when we have formed a
pure electoral ticket, pledged to support Doug
las and Johnson, and them alone, they may
all support it. We intend to comply with
the letter and spirit of the Reading resolution
pledging the Democracy of the State to the
support of the Charleston nominees. Were
we to unite with our Southern opponents on
the basis proposed by our Executive Commit
tee, and by virtue thereof elect our candidates,
we would feel more ashamed of the honor
than we will of the disgrace of defeat in de
fence of our party and its principles.
We have fought our battles in defence of
the true principles of Democracy, strictly
within the Democratic organization—and we
have triumphed. We have refused to permit
the Democratic party to be sectionalized, and
standing to-day as a wall of fire between
Northern sectionalism and Southern section
alism, we have but to maintain the victory
already" won. Whatever nay be the present
result, the firm reliance we entertain in the
intelligence and patriotism of the American
people inspires confidence that the national
and conservative position we occupy will
eventually command their support. Acting
under a firm conviction of the rectitude of
our position and our intentions, we will fear
lessly maintain them, and spurn with con
tempt all propositions, from whatever quar
ter they may come, calculated to demoralize
our organization, and . c•wtaminate our princi-
pies.
oh! for the swords of former time;
Oh I for the men who bore them;
When armed for right, they stood sublime,
And tyrants crouched belbre them."
General Davis, of Bucks county, was loudly
called for, but being absent, on the solicita
tion of many delegates, R. A. Lumberton,
Esq., of Dauphin, proceeded to addresss the
Convention.
Mr. Ward, of Bradford, stated that he had
received a letter from one of the leading
Southern delegates to the Democratic Con
vention, who was forced to secede, under
the instructions of his State Convention.—
Tie declares that they are determined to
carry their State for Douglas and Johnson,
but that if the Douglas men in Pennsylvania
yield anything to the Breekinridge Disunion
ists it will ruin the Douglas movement in the
South.
A subscri - ption was raised to defray expen
ses, and ten thousand copies of the proceed
ings of the convention ordered to be printed
in English, and two thousand in German.
Mr. Lamberton said that as the address
and resolutions reported from the committee
had been adopted with singular unanimity,
and the business of the convention was fin
ished, he moved that the thanks of the con
vention be tendered to its officers for the effi
cient manner in which they had discharged
their duties.
The motion was unanimously agreed to,
and the convention at near midnight :idjourned
sine die.
NOBLY SPOKEN.—CoI. G. Cannon, U. S.
District Attorney for the District of New Jer
sey, wrote a letter to the Cainden Douglas
ratification meeting, from which we make the
following extracts :
" I regard the nomination of Stephen A.
Douglas as the nominee of our party, as not
only regularly but righteously made. For
the last three years he has been made the
target of Executive and Senatorial persecu
tion, and has thus far gloriously triumphed
over both. The masses of the Democratic
party have taken the matter into hand, and
are determined no longer to submit to the
dictation of their servants. I shall use all
means in my power to promote his election
in opposition to the two sectional candidates,
Abraham Lincoln and John C. Breckinridge,
regarding the principles and platforms of both
as extremely inimical, to the preservation of
our glorious Union."

A DOG OVER THE PALLS OF NIAGARA.—An

went to the foot of the ferry stairs and found

LOCAL 843 PERSONAE.
THAT " RIOT " ON BROAD 'Tor.—We must
be permitted to occupy a small space with a
very small party of knaves or fools (if) on
Broad Top, claiming to \ - )e miners and "gen
uine Democrats." In the last Huntingdon
Uiao22, INC find the following card:
A Carm.—A meeting of the Broad Top genuine Demo
crats, was hold, on the 21st inst., for the• purpose of dis
claiming against the autocratical presumption of Mr.
Was. Lewis. editor of the Globe, in Huntingdon, for the
insertion of au item in said Globe, on the 11th inst., to the
intent of disparaging and vilifying the character of the
industrious citizens of this vicinity, by the augmentation
of the fabulous riot at Bowelton, which only pertained to
two or three drunken fellows, about the 4th of July; and
the contents of this mentioned item being the only gath
ering up of an unfounded rumor on the streets of Hun
tingdon. as acknowledged by Mr. Lewis himself, in his
explanation given fur not inserting a contradictory de
spatch to said item. Under the above circumstances, said
meeting unanimously concurred in pronouncing the said
Mr. IV. Lewis as an associate and participator in the above
piece of calumny. And, also, unworthy of being patron
ized by their party here, either in his words, deeds or ac
tions, until an ample satisfaction will be rendered them
by giving the name of the author of the above rumor.
Frost THE BnoA TOP MINERS.
Broad Top, July 23, IS6O.
The reader will find under head of "Local
Correspendence," a communication which
will explain the origin of what appears to
have given offense to the "genuine Demo
crats" on Broad Top. We would not notice
the card to defend ourselves against the cow
ardly and knavish conduct of its author, or
authors, if by treating it with silent con
tempt would not be doing the miners and
and genuine Democrats on Broad Top great
injustice. We were in the neighborhood of
the mines on Saturday last, and met with
many of the miners and Democrats who as
sured us that no such meeting as the card
speaks of was ever held by Democrats or by
miners on Broad Top. The author of the
" contradictory despatch" (which was re
fused publication in the Union as well as in
the Globe) also assured us that no such meet
ing was ever held on Broad Top.
The " genuine Democrats" on Broad Top
do not wish to be held responsible for any
thing appearing in the Union of the character
of the card, and it is for the "genuine Demo
crat" of the Union to explain—to give the
place where the meeting was held, and the
names of the officers of the meeting. If the
card speaks the sentiments of any one of our pa
trons on Broad Top, we hope to receive his
name that wo may erase it from our books,
for we despise a fool and a knave, and would
not insult our honorable patrons by associa
ting their names in the same book with that
of a sneaking coward.
DEMOCRATIC MEETING AT STONERSTOWN.
On Saturday last we attended a Douglas,
Johnson and Foster meeting at Stonerstown,
and had the pleasure of assisting in the put
ting up of a large " Douglas, Johnson and
Foster" flag. The meeting was ably ad
dressed by 11. L. Fisher, Esq., of York, John
Cessna, B. F. Myers, and 0. 11. Gaither,
Esqs., of Bedf,rd. There were some seventy
voters from Bedford and Huntingdon county
in attendance, and we were assured by all
present that every Democratic vote would be
cast for Douglas, Johnson and Fostor, the
Democratic nominees.
Pic Nic.—On Friday last, a portion of the
" 240 marriageable girls," accompanied by
some noys, repaired to the woods, about a
m:le and a half from town, to enjoy them
selves in the way of preserving sponge-cakes,
&c. After remaining there about two hours
and a half, they started home, all highly de
lighted with the evening's enjoyment.
Ara-Therc are nolk' seventy visitors at the
City Hotel in Broad Top City. This is an
increase over last year, and is substantial
evidence that strangers are well pleased with
the accommodations. We have been inform

try.

LOCAL CORRESPONDENCE.
CissviLLE, July 30. 1860.
W3I. LEWIS, ESQ. :—ln the Union of last
week, I notice A CARD, signed " From the
Broad Top Miners," in regard to an item which
appeared in the Globe, of the 11th inst., stat
ing that a band of desperadoes lad congrega
ted in the woods adjoining Powelton, &c.—
As the " Broad Top Miners" have taken the
trouble to call a meeting of the "Broad Top
genuine Democrats," (which, no doudt, con
sisted of the outlaws themselves, with the
Union's correspondent as their Chairman,)
to denounce you for publishing the current
news of the day, I will simply state what I
know about the matter, as I happened to be
in Huntingdon at the time :
On the Friday evening after the Fourth of
July, whilst standing on the corner of rim
and Montgomery streets, in company with
several others, Sheriff Watson came along,
and remarked that he wanted to get a posse
of men to go with him to Powelton, for the
purpose of arresting a band of outlaws,
who were committing all sorts of depredations
at that place, and requested several, myself
along with the rest, to go with him the nest
morning. Whether he was jesting or not, I
am unable to say; but this much I can vouch
for, that he produced a letter which he had
received from Powelton, and which he read
in my present, requesting his immediate as
sistance, as the people of that village were
very much alarmed for their safety, and had
to " keep watch all night with firearms."—
For some reason or other, the Sheriff did not
go to Pow elton the next morning, and I saw
him again during Saturday forenoon, and in
quired of him more particularly, concerning
the report then current on your streets, and
he told me in almost the same language, the
story he had repeated the evening previous,
and it appeared in your paper almost as he
related it, as I furnished the item for your
paper during your absence. I saw the date
of the letter, which was dated at Powelton,
July 5, 1800, and should it become absolutely
necessary, in order to satisfy the " Broad Top
Miners," or the " Broad Top genuine Demo
crats," that the name attached to the letter,
should be produced—l will not say positive
ly, but I think, I can repeat it.
In conclusion, I would add, that I have
written nothing but plain, simple facts, fur
the truth of which, I can name several gen
tlemen whose honors have never been im
peached; and I trust, after the injured (?)
parties have read this statement, it will teach
them to not be quite so hasty in their denun
ciations of a man, before they are aware of
the circumstances of the case, and when the
story originates with one of their own citi-
zens
The Course of " The Press."
The New York Herald, the avowed organ
of the Disunionists, is extremely anxious to
prove that the editor of this paper is not a
true friend of Judge Douglas—that in con
sideration of his election as Clerk of the House
of Representatives of the United States, he
is laboring to break up the Democratic party,
and that he is secretly in favor of Abraham
Lincoln. The same accusations appear in the
Constitution, the Washington, mouth-piece of
the fire-eaters, and in all oth6r papers that
have taken the pay or followed the lead of
the Administration. The Herald and its as
sociates base their animadversions upon the
fact that The Press refuses to sustain the scan
dalous attempt to rally the Douglas Democ
racy of Pennsylvania upon a fusion electoral
ticket pledged to vote for Breckinridge, the
Disunionist, - if he shall receive more electoral
votes than Douglas, or for any other candi
date the electors may choose to support, not
excluding either Bell, Houston, or Lincoln.
A. very few words will dispose of the indict
ment of the Herald and its echoes, and show
precisely where we stand in this great strug
gle:
I. The editor of The Press will vote for a
pure Douglas electoral ticket, and in so doing
will carry out the publicly-expressed policy of
Stephen A. Douglas himself.
11. The Press has never for an Instant
changed its course on the slavery question
and its editor was chosen Clerk of the House
of Representatives of the United States, not
only without a pledge to any member of Con
gress, or to any other person, and without
asking for a vote, but in the face of his re
peated declarations in favor of the principle
of non-intervention and popular sovereignty
as boldly maintained by Judge Douglas.
HI. The Press never, as asserted by the
Herald, raised the Douglas flag, and is not
the organ of any man for the Presidency, but
has always occupied an independent position,
preferring Judge Douglas because he was the
representative of the principles of the old
fashioned Democracy.
IV. The Press is not laboring to elect Mr.
Lincoln President, but differs from him and
his friends on the Territorial question, believ
ing that if Congress cannot protect slavery in
the Territories, neither can it prohibit slavery
in the, Territories.
V. But when the Disunionists in their
speeches and delarations have declared, and
still declare, their preferences for Lincoln over
Douglas, what Northern man would not pre
fer Lincoln to Breekinridge, the latter being
the candidate of the active and open enemies
of the Union of these States ?
VI. That a fusion electoral ticket in this
State is opposed by this journal, because it
is a corrupt and fraudulent scheme to elect
Breckinridge, who, according to the Herald
and the Constitution, is sure to receive more
electoral votes than Douglas, and, therefore,
if this claim is realized, all who vote for the
fusion electoral ticket vote for Breckinridge,
the Disunion candidate for President.
VII. That if, in the present division of the
Democratic party, Abraham Lincoln should
be chosen President of the United States, the
responsibility is not with The Press, and
those who act with it, but with the reckless
men who first trampled the Democratic creed
under foot, and then bolted the regular Dem
ocratic nomination, made according to the
usages of the Democratic party, in National
Convention assembled.
VIII. That the Breckinridge party, of
which the Herald is the organ in New York,
the Constitution at Washington, and the
Charleston Mercury in South Carolina. is
proved to be the Disunion party, not alone
by the declarations of its leaders, but by the
notorious preparations of the Southern fire
eaters who support it, to break up the Union
in the event of Lincoln's election ; and that
The Press ancall good men are bound, by
every consideration of duty and of patriotism,
to resist a party whose policy is purely sec
tional, and whose ultimate design is so atro
cious and treasonable.
IX. That the course of The Press in oppo
sing Breckinridge and the fusion electoral
ticket in this State, which, according to the
Disunion papers themselves, must, if elected,
go for Breckinridge alone, is sustained by
eight-tenths of the Democratic party of Penn
sylvania.—John, W. Forney.
