An immense meeting ot the Democracy of the City took place at Blickensderfer’s Hotel, North Queen street, on Saturday evening. On motion, ROBERT KING, Esq., was appointed President.— Messrs. Dkhuff and Winkoub, Vice Presidents; and William R. Wilson , Esq., and John L. Keffer, Secretaries. . . _ . . The following resolutions were read by Captain Geo. Sanderson, and unanimously adopted, viz: Resolved, That the Democracy of Lancaster city will support the nomination olßiolsr, Clover and ihe whole Judicial State ticket, with hearty good will—knowing that the candidates are honest and capable, and in all respects worthy our suffrages. Resolved, That the recent murderous riot at Chris tiana is but the. legitimate result of the teachings of William F Johnston, Thaddeus Stevens, and their compeers, the Abolitionists—and the of Gov Johnßton to issue his proclamation offering a reward for the apprehension of the murderers and. traitors, until after/our days had elapsed, is evidence “strong as'holy writ” that he wishes to defeat the ends of justice in bringing the guilty parties to condign pun ishment. As not one-third of the persons present could get into the large room, the meeting, at this stage of its proceedings, adjourned to the outside of the house, where the multitude were successively addressed by - by Messrs. William R. Wilson, Jonas D. Bachman, William Mathiot, Jacob B. Amwake, Geo. Sander son and John S. Dougherty. ■ The greatest enthusiasm prevailed, and J every thing passed off in the finest style imaginable. rhe Lancaster Brass Band was in attendance, zind, at intervals,discoursed sw music,which added much to the enjoyment of the evening. . The meeting adjourned to meet again on Wednes* day (to-morrbw) evening, at the public house of Johft A; Schbirenbhand, in West King .street, at 7 o’clock. Are You Assessed 1 The Assessment lists are now up in the different tow nships and boroughs, and every Democrat should see that his name is not omitted. Recollect, it must be done TEN DAYS before the election, and the sooner the better. Let no Democratic vote be lost through negligence in this matter. Attention, Voters! The Act of Assembly providing for carrying into effect the amendment of the Constitution, giving the election of Judges to the people, say.s that— “The electors shall vote for Judges of the Supreme Court on a separate piece of paper; and for all the other Judges required to be learned in the law, on another separate piece of paper.” All the other from Governor down to Auditor, must be voted for together, on a single piece of paper» according to an Act of Assembly of last session. These provisions of the law should be known . and observed by every voter, otherwise his vote may be rejected.

That-thoeewhohang-around-the^Lancasterian are strongly -tainted with, 4boßtipnism, or, what amounts to the same thing, in effect, Free Soilism, we have long bpen! aware—but that they woulff so far depart from their usual cunning and, duplicity as to ‘vlet thecat out of the bag,'’'at this time, we did not expect Thieis one of the secrets of their hostility to Mr. Buchanan; whose firm and consistent course on the slavery question ever.Bince he entered ! public life, has annoyed them no little. These I same men sided with Mr. Wilmot in all his heresies, I sympathised with Mr. Stevens in his wicked pro jects, and it is but natural they should endeavor to j screen Governor Johnßton from the blighting effects of his refusal to sign the bill removing the obstruc tion law of 1847, and from his gross dereliction of , duty in iVie recent murderous riot at Christiana, j The next step will be for the Lancasterian to I come out openly against Col. Bigler. This would : be manly on the part of its managers, to say the least of it. That they, are secretly hostile to him is beyond a doubt, and that many of them will quietly vote for. Johnston is equally certain. - They r raise him for doing what be did not do, and vi-hat they know he did not do, and the readers of that paper will look in vain for a solitary article cen- Buring his administration. They can abuse Mr., Buchanan by the column, week after week, and yet they have not a word lo say against William F; Johnston, or Thaddeus Stevens, or John Strohm, or any’of the Whig candidates—in fact they, even went so far as to praise the whole posse Si them on the State ticket, in their very first issue after the Lancaster State Convention 1 And these are the meri and this is the paper that are eternally prating about their Democracy, and have the unparalleled impudence to claim for them selves the title of the Democratic party of Lancaster bounty! From such Democrats we pray kind Heaven to deliver us. They are worse than aiiy equal number of whigs in the county, and would go greater lengths to defeat the entire Democratic ticket. We speak plainly on this subject;—but we cannot avoid doing so when we see daily the strong est evidences of bold, unmitigated treason to the great party for whom we have so long battled, and to promote whose interests we shall spare no ex ertions, nor iota of our energies so long as we are capable of doing battle in the'glorious cause of Democracy. To show that we have not misrepresented the Lancasterian about Governor Johnston and the Christians, murder, we give the following extract from its article on the subject: We are glad to perceive that so devoted is our good old State to law and order, that even in the hands of Whig rulers; [Governor Johnston,] her authority has been with promptness interposed for the suppression of rebellion against law and the arrest of the ignorant offenders- and their more guilty adversaries.” And again—" We cannot, however, forbear adding, that it would be well for those in high places, [what a kind and gentle re proof to the Abolition Governor!] who have cer tainly not been remiss in performing their duty after the crisis arrived, to consider whether it would have arrived at all, if different sentiments had been promulgated by them from the beginning.” Does any intelligent reader in. Lancaster county want something additional to convince him ol the political affinities of the guerilla sheet in question? We think not. If,' however, more is necessary, it can be added at any time. ip-The LahcasteriaUjWith its usual mendacity, publishes a list of 158 names purporting to have been delegates Mn. attendance at the late County Convention of the Disorganizers. This is so bare, faced an exaggeration of numbers, that we cannot conceive how men making any .pretensions to veracity, would deliberately publish for truth what they knew to be false. At most, as we stated last week, there were not over sixty delegates present, (several of whom were, either self-constituted, or manufactured in the Court House,) representing a constituency of some three hundred, all told! —being, in appearance, as it was in reality, the weakest and most abortive attempt at a County Convention ever witnessed in Lancaster. A full County Convention, it is well known, is composed of at least two hun dred delegates and may reach two hundred and twenty-five—and yet the ' attempt is unhlushingly made, by parading an array of names that were not present at-all, to create an impression abroad that the"assemblage was a tolerably lair one in point of numbers; although, even then, they were not able to chase up names enough in the whole county to make more than two-thirds of a full Convention, even on paper 1 And, with all that, they were under the necessity of sometimes taking two out of the same family to make up the complement! 1 To such desperate shifts are the Disorganizers reduced in their efforts to keep up appearances for a short time longer, and deceive people at a distance as to their; real strength in the We know of nothing like it in the political annals of the State, except a smalUjand of disorganizes - in Cumberland County, known as A.nti-Tax Demo crats, some nine years ago, who, because they could not rule the party, attempted to - ruin it. These men actually polled about six hundred votes in the county, and kept up the organization, appointed Committees, formed tickets, read the “ Volunteer” out ot their party; (it was never in it 1) &c., &c, Until'finally their delegates were kicked out of the State Convention, at Harrisburg—after which they were no more heard tell of as a party. Some of their- leaders went-over to the Whigs, whilst the rank and file, who had been', misled by designing men, came back to the .Democratic fold and have remained there ever since. -The Disorganizers in this county are worse yet than the Ahti-Taxites of Cumberland; for" whilst they submitted to the decision of one State Convention, these are not willing to-yield to the mandate of two, and, we presume, it will take a THIRD State Convention to knock the-noise out of them entirely. jjj- The Lancasterian brings a grave charge against ua—no less that of garbling the Disorgani zera’ Ticket. Well, that* is a serious offence, if true—but then, we don’t plead guilty. The ticket ■was copied in full from a Lancasterian slip, and if •there were omissions, it was their fault,pot ours.—- If it is any consolation to that paper, however, we will now state that the Disorganizers’ Convention nominated Hon. Emahuel Shearer, of this city, and Mri Jons J. Libhart, of Marietta, for the of fice of Associate Judge. Wayne County. W; A! Beardslet; Esq. is selected the delegate to represent Wayne county in the State Convention. He. goes without instructions, but is a personal and political friend of the Hon. James Bdchaham.

At this gloomy and disastrous moment. Genera, Taylbr had ; called' into service four Regiments of Militia from the .Governor of 'Texas, and a like number from the Governor of* Louisiana. We all recollect the fearful apprehensions felt, at tbis'perilouh moment, throughout our country, for Gen. Taylor and his little army on th<; Rio Grande i opposed as they were by a far superior force. In this'moment of apprehension, the President, by his Message of the 11th of May, 1846, asked Congresa for men and money to prosecute the war, to defend our country, and to feed and clothe our troops.— The House of Representatives promptly responded to. this call. All party distinctions were lost in patriotic feelings, and but/mirimi'men in the House ol Representatives were found who had the hardi hood to voteagainstthe Bill granting these supplies. Among fourteen'is to be found the name of JOHN STRQHM—the only Pennsylvanian, Whig or Democrat, who voted against the measure. The Bill was promptly passed by the House on the 11th of May 1846, the very day on which the Message was sent to Congress, by a vote of IT4 ayes to L 4 noes, and was transmitted to the Senate. On the very next day it passed the Senate by a unan imous vote, with but two exceptions. These men were Thomas Ciattoh, of Delaware, and “ honest ” Johit Day is, of Massachusetts, the slanderer of Mr. Buchanan. For the whole official proceedings, see Congres sional Globe for 1845-6, pages 791-2-3-4-5-6-7 -8-9-800-1-2-3 and 4.

We said last week, and we now repeat the as sertion, that the horrible tragedy enacted at Chris tiana is the legitimate fruit of the policy pursued by Governor Johnston and Thaddeus Stevens in reference to the Slavery question. They took their stand on the side of abolition and agitation, and behold the result— citizen of another | State, in the lawful pursuit of his property, mur- ; dered, and the son of that same citizen dangerously j wounded —the' authority ol an Act of Congress trampled under foot, and the dignity]of the National Government insulted by a band of lawless blacks and whites. And all this, too, in the County of Lancaster, so noted for the general good conduct and orderly character of her citizens. .Here, in this same county where the murderous outrage was perpetrated, Governor. Johnston made his first speech, after his nomination, and instead of taking that high national ground which was his duty to do under the oath of office he had taken to support the Constitution of the United States, he declared his opposition to the Fugitive Slave Law in the fol lowing words: “He said he never would have voted for the fugitive Blave law—but the law was still within '-reach of amendment/' “It is," said he, “ just as open to discussion and mouification as the tariff act of IS46.'’ And in his Mercer speech, Governor J. encouraged the negroes and abolition ists to resist the law, by telling them he held.in his pocket, and would keep'it there, the law granting the use of our prisons for the safe-keeping of fugi tive slaves, Jn addition to all this, Thaddeus Ste vens, to say nothing of his previous acts, has recently been traversing this county, making speeches in favor of Governor Johnston, and advo eating the same abolition doctrines entertained by the Governor. It is, therefore, not to be wondered at that we find a band of eighty or one hundred negroes, reg ularly organized and armed, in our own county, to resist the execution of the law, when the Governor of the Commonwealth, and the Whig member of Congress from this district, are constantly inflaming the minds of the ignorant colored race by agitating a repeal of the law in all their speeches. The following short article, which we copy from a Philadelphia paper, contains sentiments which we heartily endorse:— “It is absurd to mince matters on such a sub- ject; and the sense of this whole community traces the cause of these bloody tumults, not to the poor, deluded, and frenzied blacks, but to those reckless agitators, who counsel and applaud oppo sition to the established laws of the lapd. In this State, ose mah, conspicuous because of his official position, and influential, because he uses that posi tion for the purpose of sectional excitement, openly proclaims hostility to the fugitive slave law, and deliberately urges such amendments to it as would make it nothing more than a blank sheet of paper. But this is not all. Not only does he urge this fatal modification of the law itself, but he refuses to sign a bill intended bv the Legislature to carry out the provisoes of that law in good faith. That mah is WILLIAM F. JOHNSTON, Goveiihor of Pehhstlvahia.” The Juki at a Reoister. —W. P.

To Hon. Ellis Lewis. Dear .Sir | The undersigned members of the Lancaster Bar, have seen with re gret, a determination on the part of one branch of the Legislature not to render you, what, in their opinion, is but a simple act of Jus'ice. They be lieve that, under existing laws, vou aFe entitled to receive the annual salary of $2OOO, and they had hoped that the* Legislature would have so deter mined. But, notwithstanding the large amount of : business which necessarily will be forced upon y6ur Honor by the abolition ot the Mayor’s and District Courts, a portion of the Legislature even refuse to increase your salary four hundred dollars, under these facts. We have had the benefit of the faithfulness and devotedness to business which have characterized you as President of the Common Pleas—we know and appreciate the value of your services, and re gard the sura of $2OOO as hardly commensurate with the labors of your responsible and onerous station. We have heard it intimated since the Legisla ture have refused to render you this act of Justice, thatyou contemplate a resignation. We hope that such is not your resolve—thatyou will still preside on a bench which* you have adorned with so much learning and ability, until another efiort can be made to have justice done both unto yourself and unto those whom you have so well, and truly, and faithfully sqfved. \ ' We remain,* with -sentiments of respect, your friends truly, ' Amos Ellmaker, Newton Lightner..

We take "the following article, with its accom panying extract, from the! Philadelphia News of Thursday last. The News is a Whig paper in the interest of Senator Cooper, and, as a matter of course, opposed to the “ higher law ” doctrines of Seward, Stevens and Johnston. .The allusion of our neighbor of the Examiner is -so palpable, that no reader can fail to apply; it in the • quarter in tended: 'l'he Fruits of tub Higher Law Doctrine.— The recent tragedy at Christiana is but the.natural consequence of the doctrines of the higher law promulgated by canting hypocrites and arch dem agogues. The negroes were' but too ready to obey the suggestions of those who set them on to the commission of treason and murder. The Albany Register very truthfully observes, that every preach er of “ higher law ” abolition is an incendiary, who, if he could would light up the fires af disunion, and involve the country in civil war. It is time for the sober part of the community to reflect seriously on these things. Experience demonstrates that aboli tionism in the free States only tends, to fanaticism, atheism and crime, without ever haying made the least advance towards the accomplishment of its proposed ends. While it has' brought- alarming evils and perils upon the country, let loose a whirl wind of passion and bad feeling, and arrayed one section against another, it has never accomplished the least good. It has beeri mounted as a,political hobby by corrupt demagogues, but honest men have never been able to turn it to any useful purpose.— •How long will the people .suffer .themselves to be deluded by its hollow professions—are the bloody scenes which have just been enacted in Pennsylva nia, to be repeated all over the land! The Lancaster Examiner arid Herald ofyesterday truthfully remarks, as follows: . The parties really responsible for this occurrence, j are the abolition lecturers and their aiders and abettors In and out «f Congress, who have- agitated the slavery question until they have induced a species of monomania among their weak minded followers, and ledj-the negroes of .certain localities to believe that armed ; resistance jjto the laws of Congress could be successfully carried through. ] . 1 To show the evil influence .'of these agitators upon the nhinds of a portion of the community; we republish from our files of last' October, the pro ceedings of a meeting hetd within three miles of the place were the murder waß committed.' It will be seen that respectable mhn—their minds inflamed and judgments perverted by the means alluded to — 1 there assumed a position which was sooner, or later destined to result rathe violation of the law and loss of human life.'

We are notsp ungenerous towards your county as our Whig opponents have been, to claim ' both Senators from our county.— :The Whigs have settled a Silver Grey and a Woolly Head tor the purpose of killing off for the'present I the Whig aspirant pf your county, who is reported here to be a Woolly Head of; the real true Thad Stevens stripe. We as Democrats are .willing'to iet our fellow Democrats of Lebanon have a Sena tor, and pledge ourselves to do our very best to elect them. True our prospects are. not so very auspicious, but it is sometimes hard to tell who is elected until 'alterthe election. By having two good Senatorial candidates in the field,,it .will ol course increase the vote of our counties for Col.Wnc. Bigler. Of his election we have no doubt, and con fidently believe his majority will be, an old.fashioned Democratic one of from twelve to twenty thousand. Most respectfully From your fellow Democrat , PETER MARTIN. To Col. Cyrus Carmony, Capt. Cyrus Zimmerman and Lewis R. Walker, Esq. Lebanon, September 18, 1851. To Pktf.r Martin. Esq. —Dear Sir: Yourfavor ot the 12th itist., infornring us ol the appointment of yourself and Messrs. Shaffner and Longenecker, as Senatorial conferees by a Democratic County Convention ol Lancaster county, to confer with those of this county, was duly received by us yes terday afternoon. l We have no disposition to dispute the individual Democracy of either yourself; or any of those gen tlemen who participated in the proceedings of the Convention, which your letter informs us you re present. Indeed if we had heretofore felt any doubts on that subject, the warm interest which your letter, indicates in the success of the Democratic State ticket, would entirely remove them. We hops and expect that the democratic vote in your county on the second Tuesday of October, will prove the sen timents you so ardently express, to be sincerely felt by every Democrat within the borders of Lancaster 'county, whatever differences of opinion upon other subjects may exist among them. , Nevertheless we cannot comply with your re quest to meet you as the Senatorial Conferees of Lancaster county. We have before us the proceed ings ol your County Committee recognized as the legitimate organ of the Democratic party ol your county, alter the amplest investigation, the ablest discussion, and the moßt solemn deliberation, by two successive tribunals, being each the highest known in our party organization, in which pro ceedings we do not find that any County Conven tion was ever called' together this year in your county [ but on the contrary, it is therein declared inexpedient to-call one. Whether their action was right or wrong we will not pretend to pronounce, but conceive ourselves to be acting only with com mon prudence, in refraining from a meeting by which we'might involve the sturdy Democracy of our county in disputes in which they have no par ticular interest. We have no desire to be the means of introducing the same elements of discord amongst the Democracy of Lebanon, which it appears have been for some time disturbing those of Lancaster- county. We have hitherto found ample occupation in resisting the common enemy, and apprehend no speedy cessation to our labors. We feel still less inclined to assume the responsi bility you ask at.our hands, because we believe by so doing we should misrepresent the views ot the Convention from which we'derive our authority to act in the premises at all. - However gratified we Would and shall always be, to meet you and the gentlemen associated with you on the common ground of Democratic fellowship, you must excuse, us for the reasons already given, when we peremptorily decline, as we now do, to recognize you and your colleagues in your repre sentative capacity as the: Senatorial Conferees of Lancaster county, by meeting them and you, on the 20th inst., at Manheim, as you propose. Your handsome and magnanimous offer to sup port the candidate for Senator from our county, Amos R. Boughter, contrasting as it so h appily does with! the ungenerous course of the Whigs in your county’in the selection of their candidates, we, in hia name and in that of the Democracy of Lebanon county, thank you for, and we assure you that our co-laborerß in the good cause in Lancaster county cannot vote for a sounder or truer Democrat, or one who promises more fairly to do them and himself honor in his future career. Had your letter reached our hands at an earlier period the reply'would have been forwarded to your residence; but as the time is too short to per mit that, we send it lo Manheim to be delivered to you there. We remain, very respectfully, your fellow Dem ocrats 5 CYRUS CARMONY, ’ ! ' CYRUS ZIMMERMAN, LEWIS R. WALKER.

Carpenter’s office, on Saturday, the 13th inst., to express a sense of feeling at the loss they have sustained’ by the death ol their late President Geo. B. Kebfoot, M.

Carpenter, and on motion ot Dr. Richards adopted. : Whebeis, It has pleased the great Creator jto re move from his recent sphere of honor and useful, ness our much lamented colleague and late Presi dent Dr. Geo. 1 8.

Therefore, Retched, That in the early 1 death of George B. Kerfoot, M.

Stich was the cavalier manner in which Governor Johnston treated this •dreadful tragedy, on Sunday morning, and no doubt it was his full determination to take no further notice of the subject. But his Whig friends in Philadelphia lound that they never could bear up against.the torrent of public indignation that would be heaped upon them, if the Governor stood by with folded arms and saw the murderers' escaping, without.makiDg some kind of effort to reclaim them. The Governor, then, some twelve or fifteen hours after-he. had declared in his letter that all the actors in the tragedy had been arrested, reluctantly issued his proclamation, on Monday morning, the fourth day after the murder, offering a reward of $lOOO “for the arrest and conviction of the person or per sonsguilty ot the murder and violation of the public peace” at Christiana! Never, says the Democratic Union, since the our.Government, have we witnessed such tardiness in vindicating the laws of the State* An insurrection breaks out, several men in the pursuit of their legal and constitutional rights, are cruelly murdered or wounded; the Governor of the State comes almost within sight of the murderers,; and instead of offering a reward for their appre hension, he goes off a hundred miles, makes several abolition speeches,.to excite similar scenes in other sections, whilst the murderers are escaping, and never issues his proclamation until four days aftej the'murder! N I Hot Shot for the Enemy! A LITTLE MORE GRAPE, AND NO BRAG Enthusiastic Meeting in Old West Hemplieid. Friend Sanderson: —A large and enthusiastic meeting of the Democracy of -West Hempfield township, was held on Wednesday evening last, a! the Public House of Jacob Blitz, Esq., in the town | of Mountville. The meeting was organized by the nomination of Mr. JOHN ALBRIGHT as Chair man, Messrs. Leonard Hobbs and Joseph Keegan as Vice -Presidents, and Mr. Albert B. Broum Sec retary. -Dr: N. B. Wolfe, of Columbia, who was present by invitation, was then called upon to address the meeting. The speaker took the floor and was greeted with great enthusiasm, when he proceeded to the elucidation of his subject in a clear and sat isfactory manner. The Dr. spoke for an hour and a quarter, during which time the large norober present observed the greatest attention. At the conclusion of his speech, the cheerings were pro longed and enthusiastic; and that portion of the audience who were adopted-citfzens, seemed much pleased to find so strong and warm an advocate for the liberal extension of Democratic principles to all “ Americans by chance and Americans by choice.” ? j Mr. Jacob M. Stricklbr, then read-the Pream ble and Resolutions, recently adopted by Democratic Union Club of Columbia, (ancf published in the last Intelligencer,) which were endorsed by a unani mous vote, and ordered to be printed with the pro” ceedings as containing the sentiments of this meet ing. The meeting then adjourned with nine chee rs for the Democratic nominees—three cheers tor Campbell and Lewis separately—and three cheers for Wolfe, Strickler, Brush and others.

He has we believe resided in |the Clarion all his life time, and has filled many offices of great responsibility with credit to himself and his county. Last year he was the choice of of Clarion for Congress. | There has been a charge of incompetency brought against Gen. Clover by the Whig organs of jthis city and other places, which is entirely unfounded and has been proved so by some of the most| re spectable citizens in Clarion.. It would hardly be worth noticing, were it not that it has been heralded forth by some of the most respectable organs of the would be “decency party”—but the Whig papers resort to any thing to secure the 'success of" their candidates. . He has been called 'a “common man” by ithat filthy sheetlhe-Harrisburg “Daily American"'/, the-’ editor of which is Gov. Johnston’s brother. [This is the kind of a man to whom the people long to give their suffrages. He is;a plain, unassuming man, but one who has the ability and experience, which is required for the office for which he has been placed in nomination. •, This, Democrats, is the man who is you for your suffrages. Would .you vote for a man who is opposed to the increase of the State debtj and who will take care of your interests'? Ifyou would, then vote for- honest Seth Glover.

Gov. John- atrival in the borough. iwitSFjjessjpf&ftsiasm than l'ever knew a man of his.'’standing' ttf Tsceiv'o ;b6fore. The crowd, • ' w hic& could not then hiVe exceeded several hun- doing thoir utmosf could not muster up more than three faint huzzas, the last dying out in'iita infancy. Shortly after his arrival the gompftSJJkdjftlHSfid U° .%h.emhboi:ing.qrchard.— The meeting being organized, the Governor took ‘ the stand. Having complimented the ladies, he . took especial pains to tell the audience that he was no less than WimaM F. Johnston, the present Governor of Pennsylvania. When this remark was made, a us—while monsters in human form (hating to their acts of desperation by abolition fanatics,) are t*hootingjdown in.cold,blood. the citizens of our sister State, the Governor of our State, upon whose soil the outrage has been committed, in- Mead of being *rit ; bis '.postand using effective I means to bring the murderers to justice, as is his sworn duty as Governor,, is traversing the i State begging votes, or ministering to his owtf aggrandizement! Next he : mounted bis favorite . hobby, which he has almost rode to death thro* 'the State—that monster humbug .the "Sinking iftmd System ." In speaking of tfiis he olaimed it as being original with himself, which'‘every (Democrat, as well as every sensible and impar tial Whig knows to be a wanton falsehood.— •Therefore, if there is. any real merit in, the “ Sinking fund System ” the honor docs not be- • long to William F. Johnston. But in my opinion it is one of the most sublime humbugs of the day. In speaking of it, he used the pro nouns 1 and myself very extensively—telling what he had done —what Ac was doing, and what he intended doing, etc; finallyhinting'that for this they ought to 'elect him again. His elucidation of the “system” was positively, so interwoven, that 6 it was difficult to understand what he was dri ving at, being conclusive proof df its being a humbug. Next lie ./launched upon the “Tariff question.” It is strange that he has so much to do in his stumpings about this National question, 5 as every sensible person is well aware that Gov. Johnston has no more to say to that question than any common voter ;'and, yet, he preaches up his opinions abont it with a perfect gusto, as if ho had the sole regulation of that matter.— Next lie spoke of the “Dissolution of the Union,” ■which ho called one of-thfe greatest humbugs ever known. He. said the “Union” has not been, nor is not now in danger. ’Tis well that true republicans do not view present agitations in such a light, or harbor such wanton fanaticism, or ere five more years we would all saddly and agonizingly deplore' the inevitable conse quences! He then spoke of the charges laid against him for pocketing the "bill for the re peal of the sixth section of the Anti-Kidnap ping law." He exultingly remarked that he had it in his, breeches pocket, and that he was 4 determined to keep it there! Friends of the Union, remember that next Ootober! Let such slanderous imputations upon our institutions— such efforts to disturb the peace and harmony of our brotherhood of the Union! be hurled back - into their author’s face with a tenfold retribu bution! He concluded, as usual with a wan ton attack upon the Hon. James Buchanan, — the statesman, the latchet of whose shoes Gov. Johnston is’not worthy to unloose. The foregoing is the outline of Johnston’s speech, which you can easily notice as being the same he has been delivering, -almost daily, throughout some portions of the. State. Al gether it was a weak and miserably garbled affair. We had thought, by what he had heard from our Whig friends, to henr an eloquent ora tion, but were greatly disappointed. He is a poor speaker. His declamation is very harsh, while his diction is outrageous. All in all, as a speaker he cannot be held in comparison with Col. Bigler ! As regards the effeot his speech had upon the crowd, you will no doubt be as tonished when I seriously and candly tell you that he did hot receive the first bit of applause, or any other sign of approbation, from tne time of his commencement to within about five min utes .*,f his conclusion, when a very alight man ifestation was made. Now, as I noticea the Ed itor of the “Union & Tribune” present, and as he remarked a few weeks ago, that Col. Big xer’s speech in Lancaster was rather poorly ap plauded, (while every one who was.present knows that it was most vociferously cheered,) I challenge him to say anything to the contrary. The utter want of spirit in the meeting was ev- * idently a very severe cut upon the Governor. — The number present could uot have much ex ceeded four hundred—rather for a John ston meeting in the, so-called, “Old Guard,” evidently not one fourth the number auticipa* - As soon as Johnston concluded, Stevens, alias, “ Woolly Chief,” was called by some of the crowd, when on the instant, one of the officers arose and moved'the meeting adjourn. The evr ident intention by some of the .. leaders was to keep “ Woolly Chief ” off the stand, fearing that as usual, his abolitionism would break forth so furiously, as to injure his oommander, Gov. Johnston. Butjt was no go. The rabble at length, became so furious in their shouts for “ Ste vens,” that/the Greys had to tolerate him. It is useless to give an outline of his speech—as that can be imagined by every one who knows Abolitionism ! —the advancement of the treasona ble doctrines, the finale of which are such sad and lamentable events as the most foul and murJerous Christiana Tragedy , and the like! B. F. Martin, next followed.. His speech; I must say, was more Democratic than any Whig speech' 1 have yet heard this season. It wiis soon evident that he was the direct reverse of the Y Woolly Chief, r being, as I was inlormed, under the immediate su pervision of Hbistbii— the Silver Grey leader in this county. Heister trains him well. Strange as it may seem he pounced upon the heroes of the Buck shot War with a perfect furor, claiming Josy- Strohm as being the only honest man engaged in that battle. Had Strohm been as honest in his vote for the granting of provisions to our soldiers in Mexico, as he was in the Buckshot War , be would not now receive that merited but ignominious epi thet! Alas! poor "Woolly Chief" that plunge at the Heroes of. the Buckshot War was too keen a drive into his tender parts. He was-seen immediately to turn upon his heel and leave the orchard in such haste, that the extremities of his coat stuck out at an angle of ninety from his body. Martin took grounds decidedly the reverse-of Goy. Johnston,* concerning those “disunion agitations. ’ He infer red there wae danger, etc.; during the utterance of t which Johnston eyed him rather keenly, no doubt i® considering him an impudent upstart 1 But more 2d anon! 6 WHISTLING JACK, re- For Ihe Inteiligencrr. For the lotellistnee Western Pork Trade. —The Layfayette, Ind., Journal of 11th instant, has the following article: Prospects for' Pork Packing. —We have made some enquiry in relation to the number and quality of hogs in this section, and from all at that we can learn, the crop of this season will be superior to that of last, both as regards quantity and quality.— It is thought that hogs .will be heavier if not more plenty, As to prices, ..however, the prospect does not look as flattering os last year, especially at the principal hog-killing points on the Ohio river. The prices will rulejiigb, tl)ough|,and our farmers gen*, erally may colint upon fair and remunerating prices for their hogs.. Some contracts have already been made at Cincinnati and Madison at $4,00 and $4,50 delivered, but these prices may be regarded as al together above the views of.buyers generally.
