The Meeting on Monday evening.
A public those opposed to the
Lecompton swindle and in favor of adopt
ing some measures to restore protection to
such American mamifaetures as have been
prostrated by the unwise policy of our gov
ernment. will be held in the Town Hall on i
Monday evening next, when it is hoped all .
who can make it convenient to attend in
this busy season will do so. The prelimi- j
nary steps have been taken by the repre- |
sentatives of the American and Republican j
parties to effect a union—not upon the ba- j
sis of any peculiar opinion held by either, j
but upon the broad ground of opposition '
to the National Administration as regards its !
interference iu territorial affairs, especially
in the Kansas ease, where its whole power •
and influence was brought to bear to make j
slave out of what ought to be free territo-!
ry; as re. rds its policy of low revenues
from for : o goods, which has thrown
thousands of laborers out of regular em
ployment, precisely as was predicted, by
those eminent statesmen ('lay, Webster,
Adams, and many others; and as regards
*ts reckless expenditure of public moneys,
which are lavished on political favorites by
millions even in a more shameful manner
than our good old Commonwealth used to
be robbed on the Portage Railroad. The
remedy for these evils the people have in
their own hands, first, by electing true and
tried men to Congress and equally true
men to the State Legislature, and when the
time comes to place a successor to Mr. Bu
chanan in the Presidential chair, to elect
one guided by those landmarks of true de
mocracy that were so fatally lost sight of
ever since the nullification doctrines of Cal
houn, Troup, and McDuflie obtained a foot
hold in the creed of jirofessing democrats.
To effect this however all sectional inter
ests ought to be thrown aside—the best
men, wherever found, selected; and that
done, leave the People to do the work.

Reception of Senator Crittenden In Cin
cinnati.
Hon. John J. Crittenden's arrival in
Cincinnati called forth a spontaneous dem
onstration worthy of that distinguished
gentleman At the Spencer House several
thousand persons had assembled to greet
the Seuator from Kentucky, and to partici
pate iu the ceremonies of reception. The
carriage containing Mr. Crittenden drew
up in front of the platform decorated with
the national ensign, before the hotel, when
Hon. Thomas Corwin, after first giving his
old associate and friend a warm and per
' sonal welcome, mounted the stand, and
welcomed him publicly to the hospitalities
of the citizens of Cincinnati in an eloquent
but brief address.
Mr. Crittenden momentarily surveyed
the crowd, and with deep earnestness said:
Mr. Corwin, my old and respected friend —
I had not expected this cordial and unexpec
ted reception until last evening. I had not
anticipated anything but the hospitable wel
come that is always extended to any stranger
arriving in your beautiful city, and I must
confess that after being so warmly greeted
and honored by so many of my fellow citizens,
I feel almost ashamed that I have done so lit
tle to deserve it all. And I feel how little I
deserve it, because I am the more thankful to
you all because of your appreciation of it.
I thank you, fellow citizens, from the fullness
of my heart.
I have always been devoted to the Union.
It was born in me, and I could not help it.
When I was last, and for the sixth time, elec
ted to the Senate by my honored old State of
Kentucky. I then determined to be more of a
patriot and less of a politician. I said to my
self, "You have now run the heated career of
a politician ; you have loved the strife : you
have sought, if you have not delighted in the
combat, but now you have arrived at an age
when you ought to desert all these things and
devote yourself to your country ; what may
have been excusable in youth is not so now ;
you have arrived at that age when you should
lay aside party strife. Be less of a partizan
and more of a patriot." With this feeling I
went to finish my public services. If I have
failed in any respect it mut be attributed to
the unconquered frailties of poor human na
ture. (Laughter and cheers.) I divested
myself, so far as possible, of a partisan feel
ing, aud earnestly endeavored to do my duty
to my country. I was actuated by just mo
tives, and did nut ask for popular opinion,
and sought to do what was just and right.
Though not now in my native State, I am
among my countrymen, aud at home. I claim
you as my countrymen. This whole, vast
confederacy, I feel, is not too great for me to
comprehend it in my affections. I feel that
wherever I go, ad the people are my country
men. This is my country. my native land ;
all. ail, and these are my brethren, who have
a place in my heart. Wherever, within these
mighty bounds, I set my foot, I can proudly
claim this my own, my native land. (Cheers.)
But I have done nothing to merit all this
honor you put upon me. I have done nothing
but my plain duty, like a plain man. If in
the zeal of partizan spirit I have ever done
aught to the injury of my country, I pray
God to forgive xne; but if I have so done, I
can say justly I did so erring in honest con
victions. But I thank God I can now divest
myself of partizan spirit. I speak to no party;
I have none to speak to. lam not one of that
sort of political speculators who, forgetting
the present, tantalize themselves by looking
j into the distant future to discover pregnant
| evils, hut do the duties that are before me,
j confident that what is done right now cannot
I result in evil herc&uer.
I cannot enter into any discussion before
this meeting upon political themes; this is
not the time and place, and it is not expected.
In the late struggles in Congress I had but
one duty to perform. I did not know, I did
not ask, what might be the judgment of mv
fellow men, but I knew what was right anil
did not choose another course. I thank you,
therefore, fellow-citizens, that my course
meets your approbation. It is a tribute which
I shall carry home with me with unspeakable
gratitude.
Mr. Crittenden then proceeded to ex
press the conviction that the discordant
elements which so lately warred through
out the country are subsiding into peace,
and that the great commonwealth is again
moving forward in the career of prosperity.
He thought there was but one imperishable
foundation for government to stand upon—
truth and justice. Trickery and political
dishonesty may serve their inventors
awhile, but their consequences eventually
will be like burnt grass —will turn to ashes
and be nothing. With truth and justice
for our guides, the future destiny of this
I nion must be bright and glorious.
He then discussed the extravagance of
the present administration briefly, and in
timated that the question of protection to
American labor and American manufactu
ring interests must again loom up into im
portance. \V ithan extravagant government
the result must inevitably be enormous
public debt, and a final resort to direct tax
ation.
This part of Mr. Crittenden's speech
was genuine, old fashioned Whig protec
tive-tariff doctrine. In conclusion, he
again thanked the people with full breast
ed emotion, and was jammed through a
dense crowd under the charge of Mr. Cor
win, and by dint of much muscular effort,
finally found the gentlemen's parlor, where
gentlemen desirous of conspicuity in the
shade of a great man, did their best to
make Mr. Crittenden miscellaneously ac
quainted with a considerable number of in
dividuals.
During the afternoon Gov. Chase, and a
number of our distinguished fellow-citizens,
paid their respects to Mr. Crittenden.
B©„The Press has rather a bad memory.
The Gazette published no rumored removal
of the machine shops, as that paper alleges.
It was the Democrat and the Press. When
such a rumor appears in the Gazette it will
La likely to prove true.
LOCAL AFFAIRS.
FOURTH or JULY. —Tflb young folks,
and some old ones too, had a fine opportu
nity for exercising their patriotism this
year by the 4th falling on Sunday—an
event three-fourths will hardly see again.
They commenced celebrating it on Satur
day morning and kept it up until Monday
evening, and apparently would not have
cared much to continue on for two or three
days more.
The Presbyterian Sunday School, num
bering nearly three hundred, reparied to
Banks's grove on Saturday morning, and
spent the day quite pleasantly in the vari
ed exercises usual on such occasions. The
declaration was read by J. S. McEwen.
The Lutheran Sunday School, number
ing about three hundred and forty in pro
cession, repaired to a grove near the above
place, and also had a very agreeable time.
The Declaration of Independence was read
by Howard Ilelman, and addresses deliver
ed by Joseph Alexander and Joseph Rook.
This party reached the outskirts of town
just as the heavy storm came on, and nar
rowly escaped a drenching.
The Episcopal Sunday School also left
town on Saturday morning and spent the
day pleasantly on the ridge.
On Sunday the Henderson Hose Compa
ny marched to the Methodist Church,
where the Rev. J. A. Ross delivered an
able and practical sermon addressed in part
to them.
On Monday morning the bells were rung
with considerable zeal and other patriotic
demonstrations made. About 8 oclock the
Methodist Sunday School, to the number
of about three hundred, proceeded to CI ran
ville—the greater part byway of the river
in a flat—and enjoyed themselves in devo
tional and other recreation. The declara
tion was read by Emory Swartz.
In the afternoon a fantastic procession,
headed by a hand organ on wheels, appear
ed on our streets. It was a sort of general
" take oft " of music, hoops, military, &c.
A party also was got up on Monday who
took dinner and other old-lashioned accom
paniments at Banks's grove, and various
others, in less numbers, spent the day at
different points and in various pursuits.
heavy thunder storm visited this
section of country on Saturday evening,
but did less damage to the growing crops
than was expected. The wheat is rapidly
ripening, some in fact on the hill sides fit
for cutting now, and though somewhat in
jured by the weevil, we apprehend there
will be little cause of complaint should it
be housed in good condition.
There are at this time several pris
oners at large who at different times made
their escape from our jail. Beckwith was
retaken at Newton, and is now again in his
old quarters. George Holland, who was
arrested for sundry offences, managed to
hide himself about the furnace and made
tracks during the night, about two weeks
ago. Mike Bloom was heard of in Fulton
county, and the Shcri ff started off last week
to arrest him. He got sight of the prison
er at a stream, and came within twenty
yards of him, when an interesting foot
race came off in which the sheriff was
fairly distanced. The latter fired twice
at Bloom, and it is believed hit him once.
The colored boy Ike is said to be lounging
about the Big Ridge a few miles from
town.

Quack Nostrums. —The mujority of hair
washes, hair dyes, hair tonics, hair oils, and
the numberless preparations which are now
before the public under such extravagant,
hyperbolical and fantastical titles as we see
paraded in show window cards, and newspa
per headings, as hair preparations, are all
humbugs of the first water; their real merit,
when they posssess any, is that they do no
harm. Ilog's lard, whale oil, lard oil, sweet
oil, scented and colored, make up, when in
beautiful wrappers, and white flint glass bot
tles, the costliest character of tonics, and when
thus costly, are baptised with some tri syllable
term, and caught at by verdant young and
old of both sexes. Such is not the character
of Prof. Wood's Ilair Restorative. This gen
tleman comes before the world without any
" high falutia" Xilophloforium, or any other
astounding and startling catch penny term ;
he simply advertises a Hair Restorative —what
it expresses, precisely—and as a Restorative
It acts. Buy Professor WK>d's Ilair Restora
tive, and as you value your scalp, aye, your
very brains, apply nothing else; for it may
be that you will get some worse substance
than perfumed lard oil on your cranium. Re
member Wood's Restorative for the Hair is
tho best article extant. Sea advertisement.
Hollow ay's Pills. —Woman, whose delicate
and sensitive structure is peculiarly suscepti- j
ble of derangement, has cause to rejoice over
the introduction of this wonderful renovator.
There is no phase of sickness to which she is
liable that it will not rapidly subdue. If hys
teria, lassitude, emaciation, and a suspension
of functions indispensable'to her health ren
der life a burden to her, it will regulate and
re-brace every portion of the system involved
in her ailments, infuse vigor into her physique,
and relieve her mental depression. Such has
been the experience of thousands of the sex
in Canada, and it is corroborated by the same
results in every quarter of the globe.
