DEMOCRATS ORGANIZING.—The Democrats
of Shade Gap had a fine meeting on the 27th.
On Monday evening, a respectable number
of the .Democrats of the " ancient borough"
held a meeting in the Court House and or
ganized a Douglas, Johnson and Foster Club.
John Simpson was elected President, T. P.
Love and A. L. Diffenbaugh, Vice Presidents,
and A. L. Grim, Secretary. John M. Cun•
slinghana and Alex. Port were agreed upon
ia-a, the persons to be voted for by the National
'Democrats at the delegate election on Satur
'day evening next, to represent the party in
the County Convention on Wednesday next.
kt.,ar The Deputy Marshals, now taking the
.census throughout the State, with a few hon
orable exceptions, are very busy in their efforts
•to disorganize the Democratic party. We
warn Democrats of Huntingdon county to be
.on their guard when approached by these
tools of the Disunionists. They must earn
their wages by abusing Douglas, the regular
-nominee of the Democratic party. They have
their instructions from Washington and must
.obey, or lose their head.
rifr" Another new paper has been estab
lished in Blair county. It is published at
Altoona and supports Bell and Everett. Lin
,coin stock is far below par in Blair county.
In this county we bear of a large number of
Bell men, and would not be surprised if Lin
coln should not receive more than the two
-thirds of the Opposition vote.
Dar. Democrats of the county, we want to
bear of a large turn out in every election dis
trict on Saturday next. In the townships the
election will be held in the afternoon. In the
boroughs they will be held in the evening.—
Turn out and elect good men to represent
you in the County Convention—men who
will support-the nominees of the National and
State Conventions,—DOUGLAS, JOHNSON and
FOSTER.
POUR BEAUTIFUL OIL PAINTINGS OF FRUIT
AND FLOWER.S.-Mr. Roesen bas now finished
four beautiful paintings, which he will dis
pose of by is , uttng shares. It will be the last
opportunity offered to secure Roesen's paint
ings, as he intends to leave here in Septem
ber. Call and see the paintings. Tickets
for sale at Lewis' Book Store.
DELEGATE ELECTION.—The Democratic ve
•tere of the borough will meet at the Court
House on Saturday evening next, for the pur
pose of electing two delegates to the Demo
cratic County Convention to assemble in this
place on Wednegday afternoon of next week-
Every Democratic voter should turn out.
,pee' We Should like to know what Bro.
Myers, of the Bedford Gazette, means by say
ing we are hard to beat at "such like." Do
you intend to be personal, Bro. Myers? if so
we shall call up coffee, or "something else,"
for two, the first time we meet you.
DIRECTOR OF TaE DOOR.—Martin Walker,
of West township, is named by many Demo
crats as a proper person for nomination by
the Democratic County Convention, for the
.office of Director of the Poor. Mr. Walker
cwould make a very good officer.
A CHANCE TO SPECULATE.—OId rails are
;in great demand just now. They should have
,the appearance of being about twenty years
_old—they will then sell readily at a high
Trice. Call on the "Rail Splitters."
zter The Opposition County Convention
will be interesting. The candidates for office
are so numerous, and the offices so few, that
.we cannot see how all can be accommodated.
,Perhaps the disappointed will fight fur yen
•geance.
BELL AND EVERETT MEETING. —The Ameri
can wing of the Opposition party will hold
a county mass meeting in this place, on
Thursday evening of next week, to ratify the
:nomination of Bell and Everett.
Aer. Mr. John Law, of Spruce Creek,
writes us that he has oats measuring 6 feet
5i inches in height, and lf inches in circum
ference. A little ahead of Little Walker.
ASSOCIATE JUDGE.—We are requested to
announce John McClain, Esq., of Carbon
township, as a candidate for Associate Judge,
subject to the decision of the Democratic
-County Convention.
zEir Frank Pelan, of Harrisburg, a fire
man, was accidentally killed by the collision
of two freight trains on the Pa. road, near
-Lewistown, on Thursday morning last.
A'CHANCE TO WIN A PILE.—A stranger in
.town offers to bet his pile that Douglas will
be elected President. For further informa
lion inquire of Conductor Gum Morrison.
TIMM FITLY SPOKEN.-Till 0 Newbern,
forth Carolina Progress makes the following
comment upon the recent speech of President
Buchanan :
Mr. Buchanan may be IL very good and a
very pure man, but his war upon Douglas
proves him to be destitute of that gratitude
which should enter into the composition of
all good men, and his taking the stump for
what he confesses himself, to be the irregular
ticket is unworthy the President of our Re
public.' His vindictive course in removing
from office or having them removed, all fed
eral appointees who declare themselves in fa
vor of the ,
regular and against the seceder
nominations, is worthy of the Reign of Terror.
The old man's race, politically, is nearly run."
Democratic Meeting
A meeting of the National Democrats, was held at the
lions , of John Jamison, at Shade Gap, on Priday evening,
July 27th ult. The meeting was called to order by A. F.
Neely, on whose motion Mr. Joshua Price was chosen
President; Jacob Kough, and John Carl, Vice Presidents,
A. P. Neely, Secretary. The meeting was addressed by
William Clymans, after which the following preamble and
resolutions were adopted:
Resolved, That we heartily endorse the nomination of
Stephen A. Douglas, of Illinois, for the Presidency, and
Herschel V. Johnson, of Georgia, for the Vice Presidency,
recognizing in them the only regular Democratic nond
noes for those high offices now before the people, and
pledging to them, one and all of us. a faithful, earnest and
uncompromising support. We do so. believing that their
election, and the triumph of the principles upon which
they stand, will give peace to the country, and permanen
cy to our institutions.
Resolved, also, That in the nomination of Henry D. Fos
ter, for Governor, the Democracy have presented to the
people of Pennsylvania, one of the most talented, fearless,
incorrigitlble fellow-citizens; one in every way worthy
the support of conservative national men ; one whom it
will be a privilege and a duty to sustain, and a pleasure
to elect.
The following resolution was passed on motion of Mr.
Jacob Bough. Resolved . , That the proceedings of this
meeting be sent to the Huntingdon Globe, for publication.
Mr. M. Trexler moved that the meeting adjourn to meet
again at the home of John Jamison, on Friday evening,
August 10th, which was carried.

The Patriot's Duty
The following interesting letter from J. D.
Porter, formerly a citizen of Henderson twp.,
this county, we clip from the BrQumsville
Times :
NORTH HENDERSON', Warren Co., 111.,
July 18th, 1860.
DEAR TIMES : —The present political ex
citement, from the manner of its commence
ment, promises to be the most violent of any
for many years, and as the campaign pro
gresses excitement will probably, to a great
extent, eclipse all reason and judgment. If
it were not for this, the conservative lover of
his country wcold have less to fear in the ap
proaching contest. If every man, of what
ever past political connection, could be per
suaded to sit down and candidly ask himself,
who he, as a patriot, ought to support with a
view of calming the present dangerous sec
tional feeling that exists throughout the coun
try, and bringing back that brotherly nation
al feeling which formerly existed between
the people of all sections of our common
country, it seems to me there would be three
fourths of all votes cast at the coming elec
tion for Stephen A. Douglas. The only can
didate in opposition to him with any prospeef
of success, is Abraham Lincoln. He stands
as the representative of a party that has de
rived its principle strength from its continual
welfare on Slavery and slaveryholders, and
consequently his election must necessarily
increase the present ill feeling, instead of al
laying it. It is idle to say that the party has
lately become more conservative and national.
The speeches of Lovejoy and Sumner show
hut plainly the bitterness they feel against
their brethren of the South ; a feeling which
will he reciprocated by the 'Southerners, and
surely no one will claim that this is bringing
back the Government and people to the prin
ciples and feelings of the Fathers—of which
the Republicans prate so much. It is not to
he denied that many have acted with the
Democratic party, of late years who have no
democracy about them, and in many places
they controlled the party, and in this respect
the late Secession is fortunate for the party.
Those office-holders, office-hunters, aristocrats,
demagogues and political tricksters, who in
vain attempted to defeat the people of their
choice in a candidate for the Presidendy, have
long disgraced the party and been the cause of
driving out true democrats. .Rut the fact
that the party has proven too strong for them
with all their aid from a corrupt Administra
tion, and have obliged them to shamefully se
cede and set up on their own hook, will con
vince every candid man that the Democratic
party with their great leader, S. A. Douglas,
is truly Democratic—in favor of equality of
the people, and their right and ability for
self Government. No sane man of the North F
can believe that Douglas is in favor of giving
more aid to extendingslavery than the framers
of our Constitution, while it is equally impos
sible fur the most extreme Southern rights man
to point to one of his acts which in any way
violates the spirit of the Constitution. Why
then should not every conservative patriot
rally to the support of Stephen A. Douglas
and by his election, allay the excitement and
remove the suspicion and ill feeling existing
between the people of different sections of
our country.
P. S.—the people of Illinois show no favor
to the Seceder-Disunion movement under the
lead of Buchanan, and his tool, J. C. Brock
inridge, and many that refused to support
Douglas, two years ago are now coming out
in his favor rendering the State Of Illinois
certain for him.
THE CROPS IN I LLINOIS.—The wheat will
again this year, fall below an average. The
yield in this section will average about twelve
or fourteen bushels per acre. Some sections
of the State is much worse and it is said other
parts are better. The corn crop promises an
abundant yield throughout the State though
it has been very dry in many places.
J. D. P.
A DEER RUN DOWN EY TILE TRAIN.—About
four miles from Lake City, a few days ago,
as the train on the Florida Central Railroad
was passing down, a deer was discovered at
some distance to the right hand about on a
parallel with the locomotive, under full speed,
making for a bay-head on the opposite side
of the track a considerable distance ahead.—
The fleet animal put forth all its energies to
gain the desired point, and we suspect, though
without warrant, that the engineer may have
poked up the fire a little, for it was about so
good and so good, with the iron-horse and his
nimble-footed competitor. The race became
exciting, and all on board looked on with
much interest. Finally the point of crossing
sought by the animal was about to be reached,
and it made one desgerate leap to cross the
track in advanpe of the locomotive, and might
have succeeded had it not been encumbered
by the ditch ; but the locomotive struck it,
breaking three legs, and thus rendering it an
easy prize. At another time the locomotive
run down a wild turkey attempting to cross
the track, and rendered it a prize to the oper
atives. Since catching a deer and wild tur
key, our folks along the line think their cattle
stand a slia chance. jokn!..s,Fla., Mirror.
POLITICAL PLEACTION.-TllO Petersburg,
Va., littelligencer (Whig) says;
" A tremendous reaction has taken place
in this section of country in favor of Judge
Douglas within the last ten days. The Breck
inridge storm which swept over the South
just after he was nominated, has subsided,
and the political atmosphereis now gradually
becoming purer.
The people are beginning to see the worth
lessness of the slave code doctrine and dis
union, in the new Yancey-Breckinridge move
ments. In less than six months every Breck
inridge man will be ashamed that they bad
anything to 40 with the disunion scheme.
The Massacres in Lebanon, Asia.
[Correspondence of the London News, July I,]
Until last evening I had hoped that this
mail would take home more cheering news,
respecting this unhappy province. Unfortu
nately our prospects get darker every day,
for each hour brings either news of fresh
atrocities committed by the Druses, or more
decided proof that the acts of the latter are
connived at by the Turkish Government. It
is now ascertained, and a nominal list of
them has been made, that, up to last night,
the Druses have burnt and pillaged no less
than 151 christian villages since the 29th of
May last, while no less than from 75,000. to
80,000 christian inhabitants of Lebanon--
many of whom were a month ago wealthy
men, others in quite easy circumstances, and
all strangers to anything like poverty or want
—are homeless beggars, depending on actual
charity for their daily bread.
Over and above the number of christians
shot in actual warfare, between seven and
eight thousand have:been butchered—hacked
to death would be tile fitter term—as no
butcher ever used in his calling half the cru
elty of these bloodthirsty miscreants--in cold
blood by the Druses. And besides this more
than 5000 widows who, until this Druse cam
paign, were happy wives and mothers, have
lost their husbands, brothers, fathers, and all
male relatives, even to the male infants at
the breast ; and sixteen hundred children are
now orphans. All these figures have been
very carefully compared with others, and
weighed in the balance of English (local)
opinion, before being given as facts. And
after conversing, comparing and digesting all
I hear, after bringing my own four years'
experience in Syria to bear upon the subject,
I am bound to say that I have considerably
undestood the case. Moreover, fifty millions
sterling would not pay for the towns, villages,
hamlets and silk factories destroyed through
out the mountain—all the property of the
Christians. There is, besides, a. fearfully
long list of convents, churches and nunneries
belonging to the same people, all of which
have been plundered and then detroyed by
the Druses. In short, what commenced as a
civil war between the two sects can no longer
be called by that name.
For the last twenty days it has been noth
ing less than wholesale massacre of Chris
tians by the Druses, and a wanton destruc
tion of all property belonging to the former
by the latter. To give you some idea what
these Druses are, 1 will enumerate a few in
stances of their frightful barbarity, all of
which I have heard from the unfortunate
sufferers themselves, now refugees from Le
banon. One poor woman, I knew both her
husband and herself well at Deir-el-Kamer,
where they were wealthy people—told me
that when the Druses attacked the town
the second time, (I should mention that
it had surrendered, and all the inhabitans
bad given up their arms some twenty-four
days previously to the Druses, and promised
protection by their sheiks,) her husband was
hacked to pieces before her eyes by the large
knives of the Druses, who then declared that
they must kill all male children in the house.
The mother tried to hide her two sons, one
15, the other 9 years* old. The druses, how
ever, found them out, and she begged and
prayed- for their lives, and endeavored to
cover them in a corner with her person, but
the Druses hacked at the lads over her shoul
der, and gashed them until they both dropped
down apparently lifeless.
The Druses then made off, and the woman,
thinking her two sons dead, remained in
sort of stupor for two hours—so far as she can
calculate. At last she was roused by hear
ing the eldest lad call her in a faint voice,
trying to assure her that he was not yet dead.
On this she felt the body of the youngest
boy, and found his heart beating. She got
some water, and after giving it to both her
children, so far as she could get them to
drink it, started into the town to see whether
she could procure assistance to get her and
her boys away. She got as far the seralio,
or government house, but there she found that
some 500 Christians, who had taken refuge,
were being cut to pieces by the Druses, who
had been invited to enter the precincts of the
building by the Turkish soldiers of the gar
rison, these latter helping in the butchery,
and being so far worse than the Druses that
they abused, in the most infamous manner,
all the women. Seeing no help could be ob
tained here, the poor woman turned to fly,
when she came across an old Druse, who had
formerly been a farm servant of her hus
band's.
After a great deal of entreaty on her part,
the man consented to protect her and her
children down to the sea coast, about four
hours' journey, on condition of receiving an
order on her brother, a wealthy man in Bey
rout, for 10,000 piastres?. To this she agreed
and they returned together to her house.—
She had not been tlbsent more than an hour,
but she found her two children cut into
pieces, joint by joint, " limb and trunk sev
ered," to use her words, "as butchers cut up
sheep," heads, legs, arms, and bodies, being
hacked up into a shapeless mass of bloody
flesh and reeking bones. Some other poor
women then joined her, and together they
made their way to a mulberry plantation out
side the town, where they passed the night.
At daybreak they were discovered by a party
of Druses, who, after stripping them to find
whether they had any money on their persons,
and taking away what little they possessed,
told them they might go where they
Four of the poor creatures had babies, all
under a year old.
Of these infants two were girls and two
boys ; the former they did not touch, but the
latter they said might grow up to be men
and bear arms against the Druses ; they
therefore took the poor little creatures, and be
fore their mothers' eyes tore them up the
middle and limb by limb; "exactly," to use
the poor woman's own expression, " as you
tear up a fowl that is to be cooked with pil
lau." Remember all this was done, not in
the heat of fighting, but deliberately, in cold
blood. And have heard of eleven other ex
actly similar cases of child-destruction by the
Druses, in nine of which I implicitly believe,
having every reason to do so.
Deir-el-Lamar contained a month ago, a
population of 8000 souls, of which about
-4000 were men and lads, 3500 women and
girls, and 500 children under ten years old.
Of the men, not more 150 have escaped, of
the women and girls about 2000 have reached
Beyrout; and of the young children less
than 200 are alive. Don't forget, too, that
this fiendish massacre was perpetrated upon
a population which, twenty-four days previ
ously, had surrendered to the Druses, had
been promised protectioUby theth, and were
disarmed previously to the murder.
Ifir A correspondent writing to the Wash
ington States and Union, from the West,
says : " We are all for Douglas here, except
the Lineolnites, and they are all for 'Preckin
.

school-room, to take part in those of the harvest-field,
which I think is more honorable than begging votes, and
shall therefore leave it entirely subject to the decision of
the R.Eorl.p, as expressed by the next County Convention.
