DEMOCRATIC HEADQUARTERS
The Democratic Headquarters, on the night
of the election, we are authorized to announce,
will be at Samuel C. Taylor's Hotel, Railroad
Depot.
STRIKE FOR YOUR COUNTRY 1
The time fur effective action in the Demo
cratic party has arrived, and the ballot-boxes
of 'Pennsylvania will decide to day whether
we are to have union or disunion—whether
the great principles which underlie our politi-
cal fabric are to be maintained inviolate, and
the country go forward in its glorious career
of prosperity ;—or whether those principles
are to be trampled under foot, and the country
torn and distracted—the bonds of Union
weakened, perhaps dissevered, and the clouds
of adversity gather and lower portentously
over this glorious heritage bequeathed to us
by our fathers.
Pennsylvania, we verily believe, by her
action this day, will decide, for weal or fur
woe, the destinies of the Republic for many
long years to come. The election of Gen.
HENRY D. FOSTER will give the friends of the
Union fresh encouragement in every State of
the Confederacy, and they will then rally,
with redoubled energy, fur the decisive battle
on the sixth of November. And in proportion
as his election will embolden and encourage
the Democracy and the friends of the Consti
tution and the Union everywhere, in the same
proportion will it discourage and dishearten
our political enemies, and render the defeat of
Abolitionism and Republicanism almost a
certainty at the Presidential election. But,
reverse the picture, and permit Cuarm, the
Republican candidate for governor, to be
elected, and there is no telling what dire, re
sults to our own State and to the Union will
be the consequence.
To our Democratic friends, then, would we
say, that upon you rests a fearful responsi
bility. If you do - your whole duty from now
until the ballot boxes close in the evening, you
may then console yourselves with the reflection
that if any evil befalls your country in the
future, the sin thereof cannot be laid to your
.charge; and if success crowns the efforts of
the Democracy of Pennsylvania, you can
participate in the rejoicing, and in the grate
ful encomiums which will be showered upon
our noble old Commonwealth from every quar
ter of the Republic.
Strike, then, for your country, your fire
sides . , and your homes ; and, whether it rain
or shine, let nothing prevent you from a full,
free, honest, and fearless discharge of your
duty.
BEWARE OF FALSEHOODS I
The friends of Gen. FOSTER should be on
their guard against roorbacks of every kind
which are and will be circulated now on the
eVe of the election when it is too late to con
tradict them. Keep your eyes open, and see
that none are misled by the falsehoods and
misrepresentations of the enemy. HENRY D.
FOSTER is as pure a man as ever was nomi
nated for Governor of Pennsylvania, and, if
elected, his administration will be equal, in
all respects, to the memorable administrations
of SNYDER and SHUNS..
A FALSEHOOD NAILED:
The Harrisburg Telegraph—a Black Re—
publican sheet—started the story a few days
ago that Gen. FOSTER was Solicitor to the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company, and in favor
of the repeal of the tonnage tax. There is
not a word of truth in the charge. The
Patriot denies it in the most pointed manner;
and the Statesman says that " HENRY D.
FOSTER is not now, nor never was, the Solici—
tor'of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company.
On the contrary, in nearly every important
suit brought for damages against the Company
in Blair, Cambriaand Westmoreland counties,
Mr. Fosma has always been employed by the
Plaintiffs. , This is a fact which the records
ortheise'cionnties will show, and we challenge
the pioof that he ever was in the employ of
the-Cutupany.?'
VOTE' FOIL FOSTER
Every Democrat and
,every friend of the
ooustitram.and the Union, should help to
illiantlf ROCTSE Governor.
Ma. IyrEVENT NEW IRMILITERI3M.
Waiiiimi : exliiiirs;ittga di* made
a speech at the Cooper Institute, New York
City, on the evening of the 17th ult., which
out Sowards Seward himself in bits " irrePies

BUt we ariimistaken. His speech at Nei York
shows as much maligaitY as ever against his
political opponents, and old age seems rather
to have intensified, than otherwise, his pecu
liar views on the negro question. -
What struck MI with more surprise, however,
than any thing else in_ his violent .pbillipio
against the Democratid party, is the cold
blooded, cruel attack made on Chief Juetice
TANEY, (than whom an abler jurist or, a purer
man does not live in the bxoed.limite of the
flaior4) for his decision in• the 'Dred ,Soott
case. ,The Chief Justiiie is now over eighty
years of age, and this alone should have
shielded him fiorn such malignant assaults,
coming as they do, too, from an 'eminent - and
aged 'member of the legal fraternity, who
elieuld set a different example to his juniors,
and inculcate a sentiment of - respect for the
highest judicial tribunal of ' his country,
rather than otherwise.

Speaking-ofJiidge TaNKT and the Supreme
Court, Mr. &Evans says:
It had been better for the reputation of.this
old man, had he been silent upon this political
question. In order to sustain his partisan
views and crush a persecuted race, he was
obliged to write a false ohapter in the moat
important part of the history of his country.
Instead of brightening the characters of the
illustrious men of the Revolution by eluci-
dating and sustaining their glorious principles,
he has sought to degrade ,them by proving
that they did not mean or did not understand
what they said. To do this he has perverted
the meaning of their immortal words. He
contends that "all men" means less than
one third part of the human race. That
"people" means "white folks." That the
authors of the Declaration of Independence
and of the Constitution, while inaugurating
a new and startling epoch in the science of
government—an epoch of Liberty and equal
ity—were preparing a system which denied
that a whole race of God's immortal creatures
had "any rights that white men were bound
to respect."
While they denounced the doctrine of the
"divine right of kings," sustained by Jeffries
and the corrupt and servile Judges and Bish
ops of the days of Charles and James, he
makes them assert a doctrine still more infa—
mouti—" the divine right of color."
This unfortunate man has well earned his
commission to sit as Chief on the bench of
atrocious Judges. Scroggs outlawed the
Catholics;, Jeffries the Presbyterians; Taney
a whole continent. He has attained a height
which none hereafter may hope to exceed.—
If any one should be seized with a morbid
ambition, like the incendiary of Ephesus, to
become first on the roll of Judicial infamy,
let him ponder well before he undertakes so
hopeless a task He may be more servile
and corrupt than Seroggs; more filthy and
unprincipled than Saunders; more drunken
and cruel than Jeffries; but he cannot be more
devilish than Taney. Let him read Dred
Scott and despair I

We deem it our duty to again remind the
German and Irish voters of Pennsylvania that
the Black Republican party, in the State of
Massachusetts, passed a special law, not long
since, which provides that a "nigger" may
vote on one year's residence ; whilst they
require an Irishman or a German to be seven
years a resident before he can exercise this
right. This unrighteous faction will do the
same thing in this State in the event that
they get a majority in the Legislature and a
Governor who will sign such an unjust bill.
The difference between Gen. Foster and
Col. Curtin on this point is that, while the
former would never consent to such a proce—
dure, the latter would gladly do so. Ever
since 1854, Col. Curtin has been the sworn
enemy of the whole foreign born population.
But Gen. Foster, direct to the contrary, has
always been—as with all honorable and high.
minded men—one of their warmest friends
and ablest defenders.
Intelligent Irishmen and Germans, can you
overlook or forget the fact that, at the time
when Curtin was plotting in the dark, six
years ago, and later, with his Know Nothing
confederates,. to disfranchise you, Henry D.
Foster did all in his power to frustrate their
nefarious designs. It, impudence, no prece,
dent can be found to equal Curtin's asking
you to vote for him. Down with such a man !
Either he entertains the opinion that you
have no self'respect, or that you have very
bad memories. We confidently believe that
you will show him the contrary. How, in
the name of Heaven, can you forget his oft.
repeated insults and designed injuries?
WONDERFUL THE
The Republican papers of this City defend
CARL SCHURZ, the maligner of the Revolution
ary patriots, on the ground that he is but
exercising his constitutional right, in deliver
ing Republican speeches. True, gentlemen,
true. This is what we said five years ago—
that an adopted citizen had equal rights with
native born citizens. But hove did our con•
temporaries meet this declaration then? By
derision and contempt. Had CARL SCHURZ
dared to speak in Lancaster at that time, his
life would have been in dahger ; fur the very
men who are now his apologists were the
sworn enemies of all foreigners. Oh, consis
tency—thou art a jewel!
At the late Republican procession in Pitts
burg a prominent feature was the negroes
and mulattoes who formed a part of it. The
Sambos and Cuffees attended from all the
neighboring counties, and took a very great
interest in the meeting. If all that are in
Pennsylvania could vote, CURTIN could make
something of a show against FOSTER. Fortu—
nately they can not all vote, and the Demo—
crats of Pennsylvania are determined that
they shall not enjoy the right of suffrage, no
matter how much in favor of such a measure
CURTIN and the Black Republicans are.
The Wide Awakes carry blue light lanterns.
It has been asked if they are in imitation of
the blue light Hartford Conventionists, who
are said to have burned similar ones during
the war of 1812, to inveigle American vessels
of war to destruction on the rock bound coast
of that section. We don't know, but as the
caps and capes of the same party are said to
have been procured from Hartford, we could
take this and that together, and "smell a
mice." " Straws show which way the wind
blows."
GLORIOUS LITTLE DELAWARE!
The election which took place throughout
the State of Delaware, on Tuesday last, for
Judges and Inspectors, resulted in the com—
plete triumph of the Democracy. Every
county is strongly Democratic, and the ma—
jority on the popular vote of the State is not
less than ONE THOUSAND I This shows
plainly and conclusively how that gallant
little Commonwealth is going in November.
Keep the ball moving, Democrats of Lancaster
county, at the election TO—DAY.

In Massachusetts, negroes are encouraged
and invited to mingle with the whites, not

Republican
,Copiention nominating BuaLuv
us= who clamors for another God than that
of the Christian. Negroes coming into Mae
achusetts simultaneously with any foreigner
are entitled to vote' two years earlier. In
order to get more negroes they have passed
laws, knowing and admitting them to be
unconstitutional, to keep every fugitive negro
there. It is thus that`the " Massachusetts
school" separates the white and black races.
In New York, negroes having $250 have
now the right to vote:. Not satisfied with
this, but desirous' of having negro votes to
counteract the votes of the laboring whites,
the Republican Legislature of this State, at
its lest 'session, passed a law to enable the
Black Republican party to vote to negroes
the right of suffrage, and this is now one of
their leading influences to consolidate in their
ranks the Abolitionists. Thus in New York
the "Massachusetts school," which advocates,
patronizes, and practices, under approval of
its constitution and laws, amalgamation, is
paramount if the Black Republican party
shall succeed at the *coming eleCtion. In
Maine, New Hampshire, Michigan, Wisconsin,
lowa, Rhode Island and Ohio, all Black Re
pUblican States, they hold on to the live negro
as Death does to a dead one. They all violate
the Constitution, peace, laws and the rights
of property, to get negroes by the Under
ground Railroad and to keep them.
Read what HENRY CLAY said about their
separating the white and black races. Read,
read, read, and ponder, -working white men,
on the warning of HENRY CLAY against the
Black Republican party, whose aim and
object he truly states to be, to tar-brush the
laboring white people of the North. He
says :
" Let the great aim and object be to arouse
the laboring classes in the free States against
abolition. Depict the ,consequences to them
of immediate abolition. The slaves being
free, would be dispersed throughout the
Union ; they would enter into competition
with the free laborer with the American,
the Irish, the German; reduce his wages, be
confounded with him, and affect his moral
and social standing; and as the ultras go
both for abolition and amalgamation, show
that their object is to unite in marriage the
laboring white man and the laboring bleat
woman, to reduce the laboring white man to
the despised and degraded condition of the
black man."
Thus spoke HENRY CLAY, and thus throbs
every patriot heart outside the Black Repub
lican camp. This is the " separation of
races" which all the authoritative leaders in
the Republican camp promise to the laboring
men, and to which end these giddy " Wide-
Awakes" are lending their little.aid. The
Republican leaders, like burglars with watch
terriers, engage their attention by hissing
them on at every hole, and turning over
every log, crying " rats, rats !" and while
they are eagerly looking for " rats, rats,"
which are not there, the burglars enter the
house unnoticed by their watchful guardians.
The " Wide Awakes," engaged in running
hither and thither all over the country on
these false hunts, on which they have been
cunningly put by their leaders, will come
back from their rat chase to find negro wives
and negro wages as their reward.—Pennsyl
vanian.
THE IRREPRESSIBLE CONFLICT
Seward has recently made a speech at
Boston, in which he reiterated his doctrine of
the Irrepressible Conflict, committing Lin
coln to its support, and announcing that his
election will be the end of Slavery.
Here is his language :
" Upon the soil of Massachusetts he could
play no part and take no disguise. It was
his duty to say that if he ever studied the
interests of the country and of humanity it
was in the school of Massachusetts. It was
about twenty two years ago, not far from this
season of the year, that a distinguished and
venerable statesman of Massachusetts retired
to his home, a few miles in the suburbs of the
city, under the censure of his fellow citizens,
and driven by the peltings of a pro slavery
people. Mr. Seward made a pilgrimage from
his own home to that of the sage of Quincy,
there to learn what became of a citizen of the
United States under the condition of the
country. What a commentary upon the his
tory of man is this fact that eighteen years
after the death of John Quincy Adams the
people have for their standard bearer, Abra
ham Lincoln, confessing the obligations of the
higher law which the sage of Quincy pro
claimed, and contending for weal or woe, for
life or death, in the irrepressible conflict be
tween freedom and slavery. I desire only to
say that we are in the last stage of the conflict
before the great triumphal inauguration of this
policy into the Government of the United
States.
"Let not your thoughts be confined to the
present hour. With this victory COMES THE
END Or SLATER.Y. If a democrat is a man who
maintains the creed of one of the two branch
es of the Democratic party, then the last
Democrat is born."
QUALIFICATIONS OF VOTERS
The law requires a person, who claims the right
to vote, to have been a citizen of this Common.
wealth " at least one year, and in the election
district at least ten days immediately preced.
ing such election, and within two years to have
paid a State or County Tax, which shall have
been assessed at least ten days before the elec
tion. But a citizen of the United States, who
has previously been a qualified voter of the
State, and removed therefrom and returned,
and who shall have resided in the election
district, and paid taxes as aforesaid, shall be
entitled to vote after residing in this State
six months. But citizens of the United States,
between the ages of twentyone and twenty
two years, who have resided in the election
district ten days, as aforesaid, shall be entitled
to vote, although they shall not have paid
taxes."
MORE THAN_ NEGRO EQUALITY
CLAIMED
The Boston Atlas, a leading Republican
paper Of the New England States, is hard
down on the foreign born—especially the
Irish. Rear the negro-worehipping editor:
"You may take five thousand negroes as
they come, and a thousand Irishmen in the
same way, and you will find the negroes sur•
pass the Irishmen of Boston in intelligence,
morality, industry, and good citizenship.--
They are more thrifty, more orderly, and
every way superior."
The above is in accordance with the late
amendment of the Massachusetts Constitu.
Lion, which disfranchises the adopted citizen
for two years after he receives his full naturali•
zation papers.- Negro suffrage is above par
in that State.
kir A Negro " Wide Awake " Club was
formed in Boston, on Wednesday week. The
Bee (Rep.) says it "will doubtless do efficient
service for "
the_ Republicans during the
campaign.

decidedly committed. against the increase of

message. But there was an unusual pressure
upon-the Legislature - for bank charters. -Ap
plications were urged with persevering perti
nacity from all quarters of the State, which
the Legislature resisted for a time ; but finally
a combination was formed and a whole batch
new banks create& Now was the time for
Gov. Pollock to maintain his position by ap
plying the veto. It was whispered about, that
he intended to stand firm, and be did send to
the Legislature several vetos. But gradually
he began to give way.
One bill after another was signed, and be
fore
the close of the session he was so tlaor
oughly under the control of malign influen
ces that he approved of more than four-fifths
of the charters granted by the Legislature.
Men who were not in the ring, and who had
confided in Gov. Pollook's anti-bank profes
sions, were amazed at his weakness, and at a
loss to understand why he should stultify him
self by receding from a position which he had
deliberately and solemnly taken. They could
not see upon what principle the Governor was
proceeding, because he did not even attempt
to exercise a sound discrimination in granting
his favors. 'Banks were approved where they
were least needed and vetoed where' most de
manded. • Outsiders were confounded at this
inconsistency ; but the initiated cou:d explain
with a knowing wink what it all meant.
If the secret history of the circumstances
attending the approval or rejection of these
bank bills was exposed to the public we be
lieve that it would amaze them. It would
present a picture of an irresolute and confid
ing Governor, under the control of a set of
sharp speculators, who managed. him to snit
their own selfish purposes ; and at the head of
them was Andrew G. Curtin, the Governor's
confidential adviser, and his first lieutenant
was Alexander K. M'Clure, who is likely to
occupy the position of Secretary of the Com—
monwealth in the event of Curtin's election.
This old Kitchen Cabinet of Pollock's is now
making a desperate struggle to return to
power and to feed upon another feast of fat
things.
Do the people of Pennsylvania want to re—
instate the worst part of Pollock's adminis—
tration? Will they permit the men who
conspired to bring disgrace upon an honest
man to administer the affairs of this Common
wealth ? If they don't desire this let them
vote for Henry D. Foster, who is able, pure,
upright and not connected with any effete
dynasty or any corrupt and grasping faction.

""OUT OF THE FRYING PAN."
The remarks of Carl Schurz upon the
Declaration of Independence, which Demo—
cratic journals have kept before the people,
excite, wherever read, a feeling of indignation
such as was naturally to be expected. In
order to repair the damaging effects of the
publication, such of the Republican papers
as have not learned how to apply the rule of
" least said soonest mended," are endeavoring
to mend the mischief on the Homeopathic
plan of the " hair of the dog ;" and are giving
to the public such other portions of Mr.
Scburz's remarks as they think afford grounds
for a specimen of what they call argument.
They are trying to make the people believe
that Mr. Schurz was vilifying Mr. Douglas,
misrepresenting his views, and holding him
up to contempt. But it will not work, they
cannot erase the record ; the words are there
in all -their hideous meaning, and cannot be
gotten over. The significant character of the
interruptions show how the audience under
stood it ; they knew that Mr. Schurz was
laying down an Abolition platform, from
which he was hurling obloquy and reproach
upon all who did not stand beside him ; and
they and he should have known that the
Republican fathers differ from him and his
crew as widely as St. Luke differs from their
Saint—Lucifer.
We do not deal in idle declamation. Mr.
Madison, in No. 43 of the FEDERALIST, has
placed upon record the light in which the
Negro was presented to the minds of the men
who achieved our independence. Hear him :
"I take no notice of an unhappy population
abounding in some of the States, who during
the calm of regular government, are sunk
below the level of men : but who, in the
tempestuous scenes of violence, may emerge
into the human character."
Now, according to Mr. Schurz's speech as
fully reported by his friends, the men who put
forth the Declaration of Independence, were
"humbuggers and hypocrites" unless they
intended to include the Negro in that docu—
ment. We have Mr. Madison's authority for
saying, that in the regular merriment, then
established, the Negro was "sunk below the
level of men" and only by means of violence
could ho " emerge into the human character."
The readers can place Mr. Madison's exposi—
tion along side of Mr. Schurz's denunciation,
and judge for themselves whether or not the
extract given did pot contain the whole pith
of Mr. S.'s windy declamation.—Johnstown
Echo.
THE TRUE ISsuE.—l believe this government
cannot endure permanently half slave and,
half free. Ido not expect the Union to be
dissolved—l do not expect the house to fall—
but I do expect it will cease to be divided. It
will become all one thing, or all the other.
Either the opponents of slavery will arrest the
further spread of it, and place it where the
public mind shall rest in the belief that it is
in the course of ultimate extinction ; or its
advocates will push it forward, till it shall
become alike lawful in all the States, old as
well as new—North as well as South.—Abra
ham Lincoln.
" I have always hated slavery, I think, as
much as any Abolitionist."—Lincoln.
The above pregnant sentences, caption and
all, from speeches of Abraham Lincoln, are
kept standing at the head of the Chicago
Democrat, hie recognized organ in Illinois, and
yet notwithstanding those significant and
atrocious declarations, and the fact that the
speeches of Seward, Sumner, Giddings, Love•
joy, Schurz and every other recognized leader
of the . Black Republican party breathe noth
ing but " hostility to Southern institutions,"
sane men are to be found asking intelligent
audiences to believe that the Republican party
is a conservative party, and that Abraham
Lincoln, if by any misfortune he should be
elected, would administer the government in a
spirit of equity towhrds the South. The
assertion is shamefully absurd. •

that the only disturbance which occurred, (and that was

meeting In that Borough, on Friday evening, which was
presided over by that veteran Democrat, James McPhail,

A CORRECTION.--
llorrirr JOY, Oct. 4, 1860.
Mamas. BANDEREION—Dear Sirs I n your issue of the 11th
ult., in your notice of the Lincoln meeting hold in Lancas
ter on the 19th September, and the different delegations,
you have done Injustice to the Mount Joy Academy Cadets,
inasmuch as they had nothing whatever politically to do
with the meeting, whereas you convey the imprevsion that
they formed a part of one of the delecatirns. Party- poli
tics form no part of education at thle Institution.
The Zcruave drill to a considerable extent hoe been intro.
dined into the School, as a matter of physical exercise.—
The Cadets went to Lancaster on that day simply es excur
sionists. under the charge of their Teachers, and as inde
pendents.
Yery respectfully, yours, E. L. MOORE.
RZMASE.B.—We disclaim having done intenrional "injus
tice to the Mount Joy Academy Cadets," in the notice
above referred to. We are glad to learn they "had nothing
whatever politically to do with the meetiog," but they
should not have appeared even for a short time in any part
of the procession, because it created a general impression
that they were part and parcel of it. They, therefore, did
the injustice to then selves and the Institution to which
they belong—and not we in our notice of them. We trust
when they visit Lancaster again it will be when theta is
no political meeting being held.—Fits. Intelligence?.
A POLITICAL LECTURE BY A PIOUS WIFE or
A WIDE ANYAKE.—As there ere Wide Awakes in this city
old enough to have wives, perhaps they.may read this lec
. ture with profit:

A pretty time indeed for you to come home Fir! Where
have you been all night? You smell as if you had been
in search of Symmee' Hole through a tar barrel. Talk
of sulphureted hydrogen, or superannua•ed eggs! They
ain't anywhere. Say, where have you been? Here I've
been lying awake for the last five hours waiting for you to
come. Now I want to know where you have been all this

where one's husband has been all night, and particularly

fool—that's what you are. I've always thought you had
about sense enough to parade the streets with those nigger
lovers. Why did I marry you? That's a pretty question.
Didn't you swear that you'd shoot yourself if I didn't take
pity on you? I'm Furry I didn't allow yon to shoot or

about polities, if I have to neglect my family and carry

That's a sweet note. Why didn't the Wide Awakes of
Jonestown do their own parading? I expect Republicans
are scarce in that section, and you've been trying to make
a great splurge. Well, you can't fool anybody. I believe
I know something about politics myself, and know that
you are drunk. That's what you are. Must go to sleep,
must you? Why didn't you think of that before? I've
had no sleep to-night, and you never once thought of me.

MEDICAL.—The Homceopathic Medical So
ciety of Chester and Lancaster counties held its fifth semi
annual meeting in this city on the 211 inst. There was a
fuit representation of the members of the profession from
both counties, and much interest was manifested in the
proceedings. Officers for the ensuing year were elected as
follows: President, Dr. J. Wood; Vice President, Dr. Alex.
ander Hawley; Secretary, Dr. J. E. Jones ; Treasurer, Dr.
D. R. Hindman.
Dr. Hawley read an interesting report on a' new method
of treating lesions of the scalp, by which the use of sutures
and adhesive strips are avoided, and a perfect union, by
"first intention," secured by the proper application of
rollers. Typhoid fever and the best method of treating it
was discussed at some length. Dr. Johnson read a paper
taking strong grounds for Homceopathy, and animadverting
severely upon those who not only deny its merits, but even
defame and misrepresent the system. He showed that the
thereapeutits of the Allopathic school of to-day, is virtually
the same as that of Hippocrates, 2,000 years ago, notwith
standing the boasted progress of medical science since that
period.
One of the most Interesting features of this meeting was
the presence of an old and well-known practitioner of the
Allopathic school of this city, who became interested In
Homoeopathy Borne months ago, and since then has been
been carefully investigating its clahns, and has come to a
conclusion In favor Of that system. He wee present as a
new disciple of Hahnemann.
The next meeting of the Society will be held In Kennett
Square, Chester county, on the Sent Tuesday in May next.

LATE FROM OEEGON.
Important political news from Oregon is
received and published in the San Francisco
papers. -
The Oregon legislature met at Salem on thO
10th inst. The house organized by choosing
for speaker; Benjamin Harding, a Douglas
democrat, who acted at the last two elections
for Mr. Logan, the republican candidate for
Congress. McPatten, a republican, was
chief clerk ; Mr. Allen, a Douglas democrat,
assistant clerk ; and Mr. , Leverage, a republi•
can, sergeant-at-arms." This organization was
regarded by the Breekinridge members as an
indication:thata; Douglas Republican coalition
was already formed to elect Col. - Baker and S.
W. Nesmith United States senators. The
constitution of Oregon requires two-thirds of
all members elected of each house to form a
quorum to do business. Upon receiving the
news of the organization of the house, six of
the Breckinridge senators bolted, absconding
from Salem early in the morning of the 11th
inst., thus leaving the State senate without a
quorum, and in that condition it has continued
up to the latest accounts.' The names of the
senators who withdrew are Florence, Monroe,
Berry, McHenry, Fitzhugh and Shelby.
A resolution was passed by the Senate
empowering the sergeantat•arms to compel
the attendance of the absent members, and to
call to his aid whatever force was necessary
to do so. '•
It is probable that two United States sena
tors will be elected by the coalition between
the Douglas men and the Republicans.
Col. E. D. Baker bas received the republican
nomination in caucus, and will be one of the
senators chosen if any election takes place at
all. This is generally concluded upon all sides.
Both houses had adjourned until the lith
inst.
GERMANS AND IRISH, READ, PAUSE
AND ILEFLiECT,
John M. Wilson, the author of the following, a
Lincoln Elector in Massachusetts, some time ago ad
dressed a Republican meeting, in a speech of con
siderable length, from which we make the following
extracts. The German or Irishman, who can road
this and then vote the Republican ticket, has very
little self-respect :
, 4 In the heart of the foreigner beats not ono sin
gle noble impulse—not one single throb of patriot
ism. Ile is so brutish and degraded that he has no
sympathy for anythin ,, but cabbage and lager be or,
potatoes and buttermilk, or some other abominable
outlandish dish, only fit for hogs of the street or
pen.
Some tell you that many foreigners are intelli
gent ; yes intelligent. How in the name of the
Almighty God can they say it? Look at the Dutch
man smoking hie pipe, and if you can see a ray of
intelligence in that dirty, idiotic lookirig fate of his,
show it to use. Look at the drunken, bloated Irish
man, with his rot-gut whiskey bottle in his pocket,
and he drunk and swearing and reeling, and shows
not in that polluted face one spark of morality,
intellect or education. The idea is absurd—it is
preposterous,
" We must change the laws of the land, and pre
vent these ignorant, degraded paupers here from
voting and holding office. They are a set of
unprincipled villains and ruffians, who congregate
in and around our large oities and villages, and live
by stealing from the Americans.
' , Would you have the AmeriCan to stand back,
and let a bloated Irishman vote instead of yourself'?
See the wretchlis he approaches—his knees knocking
and the slobber of tobacco running down his jaws,
and as he comes, you hear him hurrah for , Dimoc_
mph! and here he comes fresh from the bogs, just
one year ago, and wants to vote—and because the
boys cry 'move him' and he gets knocked down
for his impudence, a great cry is made about it by
old line demagogues. I say it is right, let them stand
back.
" Again: you see a lop-eared, wide-mouthed,
mullet.beaded Dutchman coming up just from some
but in the land of grout, with the foam offer still
sticking to his horse-tail whiskers, and hig yrkiskers
and his breath smelling of garlick an onions,
enough to kill a white man three hundred yards,
and before he can say anything in the 'world but
, Dimooratit , he must vote, and that vote counts as
much as yours or mine. This is outrageous and
abominable. These foreigners that have carried
elections for old linera, will have to learn their
places. They have no more right to vote than the
brutes of the field, and have not half the sense of a
good New Foundland dog; and God knows, were I
a candidate for any °Moe, I would tell these paupers
and vagabonds; these vile, dirty, filthy, degraded,
idiotio foreigners .1 did not want their votes, and if
I ever am a candidate, I hope to God I never will
get them."
WIDE AWARE CATECHISM
The following are the questions to be
propounded to candidates for admission into
the Republican Wide Awake:Councils :
Q. Do you believe in a.su preme political
being ?
A. I do—the almightynigger.
Q, What are the chief objects of the Wide
Awake Sooiety ?
A. The equal diffusion of watermelons, to
disturb Democratic meetings, and to furnish
conductors for the underground railway.
Q. What is your opinion on the great ques—
tions of the day ?
A. I believe Abraham Lincoln was born,
that he built a flat boat,and split three millions
of rails
Q. DO you drink lager.?
A. I am passionately fond of that corn
modity.
Q. If you are admitted as a member of this
Society, do you promise to love the nigger, to
cherish him as you would a brother, and
cleave unto him through evil as well as good
report, and hate the Democrats as long as life
lasts and water tuns ?
A. All this I solemnly promise to perform
so help me—Abrahem.
The candidate is then invested with cap
and cape, somebody gives him a slap on the
side of the head and tells him to be Wide
Awake, and the Council adjourns to the
nearest grocery.—lowa Democrat.
THE WAY IT WORKS.—Already, says the
Journal of Commerce, has the influence of the
combination of the Anti-Lineoln forces in
New York, begun to manifest itself in the
quaking and trembling of the Republican
leaders. A sudden change has come over
them, and now, instead of the confident
assumption that Lincoln is to be elected by
the people, they have taken to calculating the
chances of the . several candidates in the
House of Representatives. 'This is a practical
and sensible idea, and we are glad to see that
they begin to realize their true condition.
A LONG WAGON TRAIN.—On the 15th nit.,
a trnin reached Kansas City consisting of
forty-six huge wagons, drawn by four hundred
and sixty head of cattle, and reached nearly
one mile in length. Twenty-three of the
wagons had taken government supplies to
Fort Union ; the other twenty-three had - been
to Santa Fe with- merchandize. The whole
forty-six came in loaded with wool, bringing
in all over 70,000 pounds.
,
gir A terrific gale occurred in the Gulf of
Mexico on Saturday week, which caused a
great destruction of property. At,',palize
nearly every house was carried away, and
several lives were Lost. 'lllimbers of vessels
were blown ashore at the Southwest:Pass, and
Milneburg, the terminus of the Pontohartain
Railroad, was submerged,. -Immense:idamagei
was done all, along the Gulf' coast,,betweeri

HARRISBURG, Oct. 3.—Thousands congre
gated in front of Coverley's Hotel this morning.
as the hour approached-ler the departure of
the Royalparty fbi•Baltimore.
In, conversation, .the >Prince and the Duke
of -:Newcastle expressed themselves much
gratified:,with their visit to America, and
particularly with the scenery which had been
Worded by tbeir ride over the Alleghenies.
7 itt,9 p'elorit,the cortege' emerged from the
hotel, awrthoutiindo oat tip shouts of greeting,
and`the ladies were liberal in waving their
handkerchiefs.
The party was driven along Front street, by
the bank of the Susquehanna, to the Capitol.
At the Capitol the party alighted, and paid a
visit to the Governor, in his private apartment.
ADDRESS OF THE GOVERNOR
The Governor received received them in his
private chamber, aid addressed the Prince as
follows :
Lord Renfrew—lt affords me infinite
Measure _to welcorgpyour.., lordship to the
CitgiirefthiCOmmonwealth of Pennsylvania,
;one of the old thirteen colonies that originally
acknowledged allegiance to, the crown of Great
Rritain f and,.notwithstanding that allegiance
has been severed, your lordship will perceive
by a glance at - Mat long line of Colonial and
State Governors (pointing to the portraits
that'adorn the Executiye Chamber), that we
still have a great veneration and regard for
oar ancient rulers. That line of portraits is
almost a'perfect type of most of our American
families. We cannot follow our ancestry
more than a few generations-back without
tracing the line to a British red coat.
After again welcoming Lord Renfrew and
his suite •to Pennsylvania, the Governor
expressed an ardent.desire that their progress
through -the United States - might increase in
interest and pleasure to his LordshiP, and be
hereafter productive of lasting benefits to both
nations.
The Prince briefly replied, expressing his
sincere sense of the high honor conferred

s he would accompany him to the Execu—
tive Mansion. There were present with Mr.

waiting to convey the party to the 'White
House.
Baron Renfrew rode thither in company
with Secretary Cass, Lord Lyons and the
Duke of Newcastle. When they arrived at
the mansion the President was in waiting to
receive him. The Baron was presented by
Secretary Case, and received a cordial
welcome. Lord Lyons then performed the

of the President's mansion were closed against
intrusion and attended by police officers.

besides ho was present at the coronation of
the Prince's mother.

and Army and Navy officers in uniform, were
among those present.

and brilliant scene.
The Baron and his suite. stood in a row,
prominent to all the spectators. On his, left
stood Lord Lyon's, and on the right of the
President, who conducted the ceremony of
introduction. It was noted that while tho
Prince freely shook hands with gentlemen,
he took those of the ladies only - when they
were first offered. In their case a bow from
royalty generally sufficed.
Not more than half an hour was thus occu
pied, and this limitation caused some disap—
pointment. Soon after the party had retired
crowds kept excitedly rushing into the
mansion, the deafening sounds of the music
increasing the confusion. The disappointed
ones were gratified, however, by the appear—
ance of the Baron at a window in full view of
the crowd.
Messrs. Phillip Solomons, after the re—
ception, presented to Baron Renfew a large
and magnificent photograph taken by special
permission from Roisiter So,,Mignot's painting
