A correspondent gives us an account of
a "bread and butter democracy meeting
at the railroad station opposite MoVey
town, the other evening, where to show
their superiority a stand was erected im
mediately in front of a colored man 1 8
residence. ! The audience having imbibed
and filled their pocket pistols with demo
cratic ammunition, took their seats in a
shep's pen near the stand! As may be
imagined, the effect on the speaker, An
drew Reed, Esq., was electrical, and he
pounded the poor nigger until he con
vinced every white man present that a
decent negro was a poor shoat by the.side
of any drunken blackguard white, and
that the latter was by far the best man,
both in law and gospel." Our correspon
dent adds he "hopes some more such
meetings will be held, as Johnson's crazy
speeches on one hand, and nigger speech
es from his satellites on the other, are
driving sensible men to voting the
republican ticket from head to foot."
A flock of Nationals, relicts of the late
democracy, was taken to Mifflin on Tues
day evening of last week to attend a
Cowan gathering, and while there Joel
Ogborn of this place was considerably in
jured by the falling of ashed overladen
with persons on it. He was setting under
or by its side when it fell. The meeting
we learn w:is quite a spirited affair, seve

The Loyal Convention at Phil
adelphia.
The Convention of Southern Loyalists
assembled in Philadelphia 011 Monday,
and the day was a gala one. There was
a profuse display of bunting throughout
the city. The Southern delegates were
received in independence square and
were escorted to the Union League House
by a large procession composed of the
Boys in Blue, Union League, National
Union Club, firemen and citizens gener
ally. Then there was a speech of welcome
by Hon. Charles Gibbons, and a reply
from Gov. Hamilton, of Texas. The del
egates next proceeded to National Hall,
where the convention was temporarily
organized, by the selection of Hon. T.
.1. Durant. of Louisiana, as President.—
After the appointment of committees on
credentials and permanent organization,
the body adjourned till Tuesday morning,
when Ex-Attorney-General Speed, of
• Ky., was made permanent President of
the Convention, and Gov. Brown low, of
Tennessee, permanent Vice-President,
i A convention of delegates met simulta
| neously with the Southern Convention
at the Union League House. It was cora
| posed of the loyal Governors, members of
i Congress and delegates from the loyal
►States.
Distinguished men were in the conven
tion from every part of our broad land.
I he following is a synopsis of the reso
-1 lutions adopted:
The resolutions reported by the Com
j mitfcee on Resolutions were read. They
1 state that the loyal people of the South
' cordially unite with the people of the
North in congratulation over thesuppres
i sion of the rebellion ; that we demand res
; toration of the rights of the States upon
j the fewest and simplest conditions eon
! sistent with our lives and the security of
1 our property; that the policy of the Pres
j ident is oppressive and intolerant 011 the
j people of the South ; they tend to magni
fy the sorrows and perils of their condi
tion : that with gratitude to the loyalty of
Congress we will stand by them in* till :
measures to adopt the Constitutional 1
| Amendment and only regret that Con- I
gress did not go further in the matter; ;
that the political status of the State is
clearly within the control of Congress in- :
dependent of any other department of the
Government; that there is 110 right to se
cede inherent in any State in the Union;
that we are unalterably in favor of the
l"11 ion of the Statesand theestablishmont
in them of governments, to carry on all
laws for the protection of all citizens, and !
the guaranteeing to all of every race and I
color the rights to which they are enti
tled; and the organizations of unrepre- j
I sented States are not legitimate govern- i
, nients till recognized by Cougre.-s; that i
i the welcome we have received from the :
| citizens of Philadelphia inspires us with j
hope that the principles of tlie foundation
; of this Government shall he the corner- j
stone of its reconstruction ; that we will
! emulate all the acts of Abraham Lincoln; j
that we sympathize with all people in all
countries struggling for freedom: that the j
gratitude of the Nation is due to the men j
j who made the great army of the Republic,
and we will stand by them in securing |
i the fruits of their victories.
jßh37"The Democrat reminds us by an
attack on Mr. Wakefield that we omitted
to correct our statement that he Was in
tiie army, at which time we also errone
ously located Mr. Shull in the 205 th in
stead of the 83d regiment.

At Lewistown on the sth September,
1866, JOHN C. WOLF, aged 32 years, 2
months and 10 days.
He is gone! The collin lid has veiled
him from our sight, and his lifeless form
has been consigned to the silent tomb.
In his death we have lost a friend; this
community an honest and respected citi
zen; he will be missed in the social circle,
and more than all in the family of the
bereaved ones. The friends whose tender
care never ceased during his illness, shall
no more hear his faint voice calling from
the dying couch. That wife in wliose
arras he loved to rest, shall no more bend
over his wasting form to ease his suffer
ings which he endured with so much for
titude. The loved ones \v hose hands were
ever willing to minister to his wants,
shall no more see him until the resurrec
tion morn. He is gone! calmly and
peacefully he passed the cold portals of
death, leaning on the strong arm of his
loving Redeemer, and giving that evi
dence to his weepiti- .> nds that he was
going to a brighter and a better world,
here his voice shai , . :i with thousands
who have gone before > swell the sweet
anthems that shall forever roll up around
the throne of theet *u.il < tod, where sick
ness and sorrow n r come, hut all is
joy and peace. Peace.til he his rest.

Preserving Green Corn. —To. E. F.
Green. Kalamazoo, Mich. We have
tried various methods of bottling and
canning green corn, but; never with
satisfactory results. p We have also
eaten that put up by'those who make
a business of canning fruits and vege
tables, but the corn was always poor,
to our taste We know of no way to
pui up green corn successfully, except
to cook it on the ears, then shave off
and dry it in a strong sunlight, or bv
tii.- fire, or in the oven. Preserved in
this way it is very palatable at a sea
son when green vegetables are scarce.
Hen ting Bottles for Fruit.—"Subscri
ber," of Columbus, N. J., writes that
she washes and wipes the jars dry,
and then set them in the oven until
too hot.to handle-without a <sioth. As
wanted the}* are taken out, set on a
warm board, and the hot truit pored
in. In this way she has broken only
one bottle in three years. By the hot
water plan, described on p.i"e 26"'
(July,) we have not broken one in put
ting up the last four hundred.
Red Ants. —After our safes, cup
hoards, etc., are washed and wiped as
dry as they can be with a wrung out
cloth, we sprinkle on salt and rub it
well into the wood and all the cracks
and crevices with the same damp cloth,
and have found it effectual against the
ants.— E. Cure, iV. ,/.

PURIFY THE BLOOD.
If the blood I e pure the body which is formed front
and by the blood cannot be diseased. But if there
be in any part of the body any affection, such as ahoil
or ulcer, even a bruise, the blood circulating through
that part takes up impure matters from the local af
fection and carries it int • the general system. This
is the cause often of sudden death to persons of full
habit afflicted with boils and ulcers, and who use no
medicine; the matter gets into the circulating sys
tem and chokes up the fine blood vessols which sup
ply the brain with vitality, and life ceases as if

"VE\V PHYSIOGNOMY, or "Signs of Character," as
!\ manifested through Temperament and External
.Forms, and especially in the •human face divine."—
cine elegant volume, with nearly 800 pages, and 1,000
illustrations. By S. R. Wells. Editor Phrenological
Journal- Price, post paid, 35. Address Eowler &
Wells, No. 3*o Broadway. New York.
"New Physiognomy" is eminently practical, fully
illustrated, and well suited to ihe wants ofaii. In the
study of "the face" the reader soon learns to read
each and every feature. Noses are classified as the
Roman. Greek, Jewish, Snub and Celestial. The
eyes speak all languages, whether black, blue, brown
or hazel. In alike manner,cheeks, neck, ears, bands,
feet. walk, voice, laugh, etc., are shown to be "signs
of character."
In no other work is so much light thrown upon the
character and destiny of mankind as in this, or the
distinctive traits of nations and tribes so clearly point
