LANCASTER HORSE MARKET, MONDAY,
SEPTEMBER 25th, 1.865.—The trade has as
sumed a brisker aspect in both arrivals and
sales, for the past week, which were as fol
lows:
Trout's.—The arrivals at thee stables du
ring the week were to Messrs. D. M. Sharp
it: Co., 8 head of good horses, bought in this
county; 15 head, to the saute firm, of very
fine and superior horses—decidedly the best
lot that has been brought to this market for
a long time—by Mr. A. C. Brindley, pur
chased in Harrison and adjoining
counties, Ohio; also 15 head of excellent
horses, from the same vicinity, by Wesley
Brindley, and 3 headto Mr. McManus, of N.
Y., bought in the - County, in all 41 head.
Messrs. Sharp At Co. shipped on Wednesday
last hi head to Philadelphia market, and
turned 7 head to grays, leaving with 25 head
at last report, 25 head stilt on hand. Mr.
W. Brindley sold 3 head in the county,
leaving 12 on hand. The whole number
remaining in these stables are 10 head.—
Messrs Sharp & CO. will ship 10 or 12 head
to-morrow to Philadelphia.
Funk's.—Tbe arrivals here were rather
slim, being only 8 head, bought in the
county. The sales and shipments were also
slim, the former reaching 7 head, and the
latter only 3 head. There are, deducting
from 25 head at last report, 23 head on hand.
cope/ana cC Cline's.—The arrivals at this
stable were 13 head, bought in the county.
18 head were sold at Mount Joy, and 12 head
were shipped to Philadelphia market—in
all 30 head. Deducting from 37 head last
week, there are 20 head yet on hand.
Leman, Murphy d• Co.'s.—No arrivals or
sales during the week.
TUE UNION STEAMER.—The steamer of
the Union Fire Company arrived on Satur
day afternoon at 1 o'clock. A parade of the
Union, American and Shiftier Companies
took placti, the two latter acting as an escort.
The line of procession was formed on Chest
nut street, and moved as follows:
Chief Marshal.
Dr. J. T. Baker, American
Aids.
George Miller, American.
JohnShertz, Shinier.
Young's Drum Corps.
American, No. 5, W. G. Evans, Marsha
Shiftier, No. 7, John Fritz, Marshal.
City Cornet Band.
Union, No. 1, Capt. H. E. Slaymaker,
Marshal.
17nion Steamer,
Drawn by two cream-colored horses, upon
which were mounted two boys dressed
in the Union uniform.
Carriage, containing Mayor :Sanderson, Mr.
L. Button, Builder of the Engine;
John H. Buchman, Superintendent
City Water Works, and Mr.
William Miller.
The American appeared with white shirts,
tire hats and black pants; the Shiftier were
fully equipped in firemen's suits, and the
unial appeared in new gray shirts, black
pants, and wore the New York fire hat and
belt. All the-companies made an exceed
ingly handsome display. The lady friends
of the different companies, as usual, were
very profuse in the distribution of beauti
ful boquets.
The procession proceeded over the route
previously designated, and about half-past
four o'clock halted in front of Trinity
Lutheran Church, Duke street, where a
preliminary trial of the steamer took place.
The trial was not as satisfactory as could
have been desired, which was owing to a
- variety of causes. There is not a doubt,
however, of the steamer being able to do
everything that can be reasonably expected
of it. The steamer is named "H. E. Slay
maker," a well-bestowed compliment on
the active, worthy and esteemed President
of the Union. It is of the third-class build,
and plays two streams. It is a neat and
beautiful piece of mechanism. The signal
lamp in front was captured at Resacca,
Georgia, on the 14th of May last by Mr.
Richard Kirk, of this city. It was taken
off of a Steam Fire Engine, which was on
a railroad truck endeavoring to get away
from the Federal forces. It is of English
manufacture, and one of the finest speci
mens of manufacture of the kind we have
ever seen. On the sides of the boiler are
two silver plates, with the name and motto
of the Company. On the small air cham
ber in front is a silver plate with the follow
ing inscription :
" Our Own: Thanks to Our Lady Friends
TRACT ANINTVERSARY.—Years ago, we
do not know how many, an association was
formed in this city, the object of whose mis
sion was doing good. The name of this as
sociation is "The Ladies' City Tract So
ciety." Faithfully, religiously, devotedly,
during all these years, have these women
perfornied their self-imposed, thankless and
wearisome duties, without hope of reward ?
Did we say without reward? There is always
a reward fur such in the abode of the g, ,, d
and just. During all these years have these
faithful Christian women been laboring,
upon a very small capital, for the evan
gelization and amelioration of thecondition
of mankind. The "silent messengers of
thought," often productive of good, have
been from month to month distributed in
almost every household in the city. Fre
quently have we been called to the office
door by a gentle rap, and from the lips of a
young and pretty face would come the in
quiry, Will you please accept a tract, sir 7"
How could we refuse? Yes, these women
have done a vast amount of good in tins city.
No sectarian or political feelings have ever
been permitted to interfere in their deliber
ations, but silently, meekly and modestly
have they gone in and out among us doing
their Master's will. They have sown the
seed, and although everything looks un
propitious now, the harvest time will surely
come, and then will they have the proud
consciousness of knowing that their labors
have been abundantly blessed.
VII Sunday night the anniversary of this
O i el'ety took place at Trinity Lutheran
Church, Duke street. The meeting was pre
sided over by Rev. Samuel Laird, pastor of
Trinity, and the exercises were opened
with the singing of an anthem by the choir.
Able and interesting addresses were made
by Revs. Bishop Bigler of the Moravian,
Mosser of St. Paul's Reformed, and Thomp
son of the First M. E. Church. The annual
report was read by Rev. Mr. Laird. From
it we learn that 22,108 English and 6,212
German tracts were distributed during the
past year, making a total of 28,320. - The
receipts during the year were $73.44, and
the expenditures $38.75, leaVing a balance
in the treasury of $34.69. After prayer by
the Rev. Mr. Powell, and the singing of a
hymn by the choir, the congregation was
dismissed with the benediction. There was
a large, interested and attentive congrega
tion present.
SPECIAL attention is incited to John
- Fareira's advertisement in this issue. His
assortment of Fancy Fm's, for Ladies' and
Children's Wear, is very and:of a au
perior quality. Give him a call.

was large and enthusiastic. It was called

.Mayor Sanderson, on taking the chair,
made a short speech in his usual happy
style. Before he had finished his remarks,
however, Colonels Davis and Linton, ac
companied by Hon. C. L. Pershing, of
Cambria county, made their appearance at
the door of the Hall. As they passed up
the aisle our candidates were greeted with
loud expressions of rapturous applause.
Col. W. W. H. Davis, our gallant and dis-
tinguished candidate for Auditor General,
was introduced to the audience as the first
speaker. He looks every inch a soldier
even in citizen's dress. As a speaker he is
clear, plain and forcible. His arguments
are all arranged with logical precision and
nicety, and presented in elegant and chaste
language. His voice is clear and pleasant,
and his method of delivery free from any
thing like xanting or ostentatious display.
He is decidedly an effective public speaker.
Ile said:
Mr. President; I' am hereto-night, by in
vitation from the Democracy of Lancaster
city, to discuss the political issues in
volved in the present campaign. The Dem
cratic State Convention, without my having
sought the office, saw fit to nominate me in
connection with my friend there, that brave
and true soldier, Col. John P. Linton as your
candidates for the offices of Auditor and
Surveyor General. But if I did not seek
the nomination, I will do my best by all
fair and honorable means to secure my
election and the triumph of the Democratic
party. • r.t
I hear it remarked that this is not an im
portant election. I think it is. Never were
more vital issues presented for the consid
eration of the people. It seems to me that
it is not now a mere question of adminis
tration, but of government; whether we
shall continue to have a government of
Constitutions and laws such as our fathers i
gave us. It is an old saying that history
;fintintially repeats itself. What were the
issues at the formation of this government?
Were they not
. similar to those now pre
sented? Then under the lead of Alexander
Hamilton and others, a strong party con
tended for a strong government. They
wanted the Executive to hold office for life,
Senators of the United States to be appoint
ed for life, and wished to place in the hands
of the Executive a veto power which would
have enabled him to nullify not only,the
acts of Congress but of the Stale Legislatures.
In what respect is the theory of the Repub
lican party different? They clamor for a
strong government, one which shall swal
low up the reserved rights of the States
and of the people. This they insist
upon in the very face of that clause
of the Constitution which declared that all
rights and powers not granted to the Fed
eral Government are reserved to the States
respectively or to the people. Here, then,
we have with the Republicans the same old
fight over again which our forefathers waged
with the Federal party. In this we hale
history repeating itself. Under the elder
Adams we had the alien and sedition laws,
under which aliens were seized and sent
beyond the limits of the State, while on a
charge of sedition citizens were made the
victims of unrestrained arbitrary power.
Over here in Barks county, the editor of the
Reading Adler, the old Berks County Bible
as it is familiarly called, was seized and
thrust into prison without form or warrant
of law. Have we not seen history repeat-
ing itself in this respect? Let the innumer
able arbitrar3) arrests and the violence done
to the plainest rights of the citizen during
the first term of Mr. Lincoln's Adminis
tration answer.
Col. Davis then proceeded to review the
contending theories as to the restoration of
the Union. Ile said: I don't know how
better to state both sides of the contest than
in the language of your townsman, Mr.
Stevens. He says in his speech recently
made here.—
Two positions have been suggested.
First—To treat those States as never hav
ing, been out of the Union because the Con
stitution forbids secession, and therefore a
fa 4 forbidden by law could not exist.
Second—To accept the position in which
they placed themselves as severed from the •
Union; an independent government de
facto, and an alien enemy to be dealt 'with
according to the laws of war.
The first proposition embraces the theory
on which President Johnson has been • act
ing, and it is heartily endorsed by the Dem
ocratic party. The other is the doctrine of
State suicide and is the pet theory of Mr.
Stevens and the leaders of the Republican
party. If their adherence to this doctrine
does not put them on the same platform
with the original secessionists then I am at,
a loss to conceive what could do so. Men
of Calhoun's stamp never made any bolder
claim of power in the States to annul:the
Constitution and dissolve their relation to
the Union, than is conceded in the admis
sion by Mr. Stevens that the States in revolt
were by their ordinances of secession carried
completely out of the Union,
with power to
form, what he asserts they did form, a de
facto government completely foreign to that
of the United States. Mr. Stevens is high
authority in the Republican party. When
he speaks it is ex cathedra, and what he
says is entitled to be received. as the voice
of his party. His doctrines are simply atro
cious. Having boxed the political compass
and followed his party through all its vary
ing names and mutations he is now a consist
ent representative Republican. The hatred
winch he has always borne toward the
South is now the sentiment of his party,
and when he proposes to hold the Southern
States in subjection until the whip' of the
black man shall be heard cracking over the
shoulders of the white man, his backers ap
plaud the vindictive utterance. His whole
theory as developed in his speech made here
is radically wrong and competely subversive
of our form of government. His propo
tion to keep the Southern States out of the
Union, and to refuse admission to their
regularly elected delegates to Congress ne
cessarily involves the same power over del
egates to Congress from Pennsylvania. If
Congress can refuse to allow members
regularly elected to take their seats for one
reason they can for any other. They may
make religion a test if they choose. Such
is the doctrine advanced by Mr. Stevens in
his speech delivered here; and it is the doc
trine plainly set forth in the platform of the
Republican party of this State. That docu
ment was framed to snit the views of Mr.
Stevens, :old may justly be regarded as an
emanation from his brain. On the subject
of restoration it is in plain and palpable op
position to the plan adopted by President
Johnson, which has been working so ad
mirably. Here is the authoritative decla
ration of the party:
"That the mild and generous method of re
construction offered by the President to the
people lately in rebellion, in the judgment
of this Convention, has not been accepted in
the spirit of honest loyalty and gratitude;
but with such evidenceof defiance and hos
tility as to impel us to the conviction that
they cannot safely be entrusted with the
political rights which they forfeited by their
treason, until they have proven their ac
ceptance of the results of the war, by incor
porating them in constitutional provisions
and securing to all men within their borders
their inalienable right to life, liberty and
the pursuit of happiness.
That having conquered the rebellious
States, they should be held in subjection,
and the treatment they are to receive and
the laws which are to govern them, should
be - referred to the law-making power of the
nation to which it legitimately belongs."
Let any man of candor and sense con
trast that with the position of the Demo
cratic party on the same subject. The fifth
resolution of the Democratic platform says:
"Resolved, That we fully concur with
President Johnson in the conviction ex,
pressed by him in ISO, and repeated several
times since, that the Federal Government
is sovereign within its proper sphere; that
it acts not through or upon the States but
directly upon individuals; that the States
could not absolve the people from their
federal obligations; that the State ordi
nances of secession were nullities ; and,
therefore, when thff attempted revolu
tion came to an end by the submission
of the insurgents, the States were' as
much a part of the Union as they had been
before, their people were bound to the same
duties and clothed with the same rights,
excepting, of course, such rights as indi
viduals among them had legally forfeited
by their own acts in the meantime. And
we hereby declare that, so far as we can
prevent it, the resumption of their proper
places In the Union by those States, some
of whose citizens were lately in rebellion,
shall not be impeded or delayed by the. un
lawfol• interference of that faction at the
North which was always hostile to the
Union, which now pronounces it legally
dissolved, and which is still malignantly
laboring to prevent its restoration."
What would be the consequence of adopt
ing the theory - of Mr. Stevens and his radi
cal friends? Huge standing armies would
have to be kept' tip for marry years; the
national' - debt Would • constantly an
rapidly inureased, while:the South: would
be in no condition to aid in bearing its
of the expenses of the Government ; -
taxation would be enormously greater than
at present; and all this for the purpose aeon-,
ferring the right of suffrage and eventual
social equality upon the negro.' Singulat
as it may sound we have the self-swine
party winch, in 1861, demanded troops to
whip the revolting States into the Union,
demanding the aid of the' troops now -to
keep them out. And to this doctrine the
Republican party is fully committed.
Colonel Davis -then proceeded to review
the record of the Republican party on the
negro suffrage' question. He said; Ptake
it for granted that no two antagonistictace-s
can peaceably co-exist in the same country
if there is inaugurated between them
a struggle for the political supremacy of
one over the other. All history proves the
truth of the assertion. In San Domingo
revolutions have always been the order of
the day. In Mexico the evils of the same
thing are plainly to be seen. Colonel Davis
here proceeded to read extracts from lead
ing Republican newspapers and public
speakers, which proved completely that, as
a party, thatpolitical organization wasfully
committed to the odious doctrine of urn
versal
negro suffrage. Six States have
lately indorsed the doctrine openly in their
State Conventions. All New England favors
it, and in the only one of the Yankee States
where negroes are not now allowed to vote,
in Connecticut, an election is to be held in
October for the purpose of deciding whether
the word white shall not be stricken from
the Constitution. In Pennsylvania the
party dodged the question, but not so
fairly as to free them from the im
putation of favoring it. Already in
six counties of this State the Repub
lican party has boldly declared in favor
of negro suffrage, while a majority of their
newspapers in this State have indorsed the
doctrine. Do we do the party any wrong
then when we charge them With being in
favor of it? They know that the very ex
istence of their party organization depends
upon this scheme. 'Here in this State there
would be a voting population of twelve
thousand negroes ; enough to turn the tide
at every election. Are the white men of
Pennsylvania prepared for this?
Col. Davis then proceeded to show that the
leading men of the Republican party were
as fully committed to the doctrine of negro
equality as they were to that of negro suf
frage. H.e read extracts from the speeches
of leading men and from the editorials of
leading republican newspapers, all going
to show that this was part of the party creed.
He instanced the bill passed by Congress
and the bill passed by the Pennsylvania
legislature of last winter, making it a penal
offence to refuse to let negroes ride in the
same cars with white men, stating the fact
that the railroad companies were willing
to furnish cars exclusively for the use of
the - blacks. But this did not suit our mod
ern Republican colons; they were not sat
isfied with the enjoyment of the same con
veniences by the negro to which the white
man was entitled, but insisted that he
should enjoy them side lw side with the
white man. Both these enactments were
opposed by Democrats and forced through
by an overwhelming Republican majority.
When the Territory of Montana was or
ganized last winter a Republican Congress
deliberately struck the word white from
the enabling act, thus fastening negro suf
frage upon that territory. Last winter the
Massachusetts Legislature passed a law
making it a penal offence for any hotel
keeper to make a distinction between a ne
gro and a white man. If any of you should
travel much in that State it might chance
that you would be compelled to share your
bed with a negro, unless you should prefer
to fork over the sum of five dollars to en
able the landlord to pay the fine imposed
upon him for denying the negro the privi
lege of sleeping with you. It is even said
that certain sharp negroes make a good
thing of it in Boston, and elsewhere in Mas
sachusetts, by going to first-class hotels and
insisting upon taking a seat with the guests
at the table, until they force the landlord to
compromise by paying them two dollars
and a halt.
What further evidence is needed to prove
that the Republican party is in favor not
only of negro suffrage, but of entire negro
equality? The ene is*an inevitattle conse
quence of the other. The Freedmen's
Bureau is another evidence of this. Who
ever heard of a huge institution being organ
ized under the supervision and at the ex
pense of the Government to take charge of
the interests of white men. If a white man
desires to go to some distant point to seek
work he pays his own expenses; while
negroes, being a privileged class, are trans
ported over the railroads at the expense of
the Government. it is only a short time
since several cars passed through Philadel
phia filled with negroes, which were being
sent at the public expense to find employ
ment in Rhode Island. So it goes. The
white man must take care of himself, while
the negro is made the peculiar pet of the
Government.
Colonel Davis concluded by reading the
patriotic resolution offered by Mr. Critten
den, and unanimously adopted by Con
gress, declaring that the sole object of the
war was the restoration of the Union. Un
der this, said he, it was that our soldiery
went forth aswilling volunteers. They did
not go to confer peculiar privileges upon an
inferior race, and they will not be found
voting with a party which makes this the
cardinal doctrine of its political faith.
We have given but an imperfect and
feeble sketch of Colonel Davis' able speech.
It was listened to with marked attention by
the large audience, and was frequently in
terrupted by spontaneous outbursts of en
'iusiastic applause.
FPFECH OF COL. JOHN P. LINTON.
After the applause had subsided Mayor
Sanderson introduced Col. John P. Linton,
the Democratic candidate for Surveyor Gen
eral to the audience. Col. Linton is quite a
young man, with a fine form and open,
manly face. He evidently spoke under
some embarassment, but he has a strong
voice, a good delivery, and all, the ele
ments that go to make up a popultir and ef
fective speaker. He commenced by paving
a very neatly turned compliment to Col.
Davis, saying:
The distinguished gentleman who has
just preceded the, I perceive, carries into
political life the same- characteristic for
Which he was noted as a soldier. As the
boys -say, "When he goes•in" lie makes
such clean work of what is before him as to
leave,nothing to be done by the reserves—
besides, he has another decided advantage
over me ; every time he waves his right
hand in a gesture the audience can see how
he is stumping it. [This allusion to the shat
tered hand of Colonel Davis drew out a
round of applause.] I never sought the nom
ination the Democratic State Convention
saw fit to confer upon me, and when some
enthusiastic friend telegraphed to me that I
had been nominated for Surveyor General,
I stuck the despatch in my pocket and said
nothinr , about it, thinking it only a hoax.
But when the news came in reliable shape
I resolved to assume the responsibilities,
but I did not then think I should be called
' upon to make even a partial canvass of the
State.
Col. Linton went on to speak of the bold
and unequivocal stand always taken by the
Democratic party on every great question
that came before the country. It never
dodged a public issue, or tried to escape by
a subterfuge from the responsiblity attach
to any of its public acts.
It always spoke out boldly and fearlessly.
The platform recently adopted by the State
Convention is of that character. It alludes
in no ambiguous terms to the great rights
that everywhere attach to the persons of
freemen. Some :night be disposed to call
these mere izlittering generalities; and so
in ordinary times they would seem
in the platform of a political
party. But not so are they
now. Would that they were. Within the
past four years what right of the individual
citizen has been secure from violent assaults
of arbitrary power? The writ of habeas
corpus has been denied, and multitudes of
unoffending men have been seized and
thrown into prisons without form or war
rant of law and without any charge ever
being brought against them. Trial by jury
has been denied, and one by one the
bulwarks which our fathers reared to
protect us against the encroachments
of tyralany have been swept away.—
The Derabcratic party has always resolutely
opposectall such things, and it will in the
future continue to maintain the rights of
the people with the same vigilance as it has
exercised in all the past.
But, continued Col. Linton, while these
may be regarded by some as merely nega
tive issues, there are important positive
issues to be settled by the impending
political contest. The position of the
Republicans on these questions, is to Say the
least ambiguous. Colonel Linton went on
to give a graphic sketch of the struggle at
the time of the formation of the Constitu
tion between the advocates of a Govern
ment modeled after that of England and
those who desired the adoption of a Repub
lican system. The Federal Government.,
foundeaon the Constitution of the United
States, and deriving all its powers from
that instrument, was a wise compromise
between the two contending parties. IV
it not strange that we should have
the very same struggle over again after
the lapse of so many years. It seems
to me that a secessionist Ls one who runs to
one extreme, while the republicans take the
opposite. The one would make the Union
of the States a mere rope of sand, while
the other would destroy our republican in
stitutions and erect upon their ruins a cen
tralized military despotism. Both are alike
completely , destructive of the Union. Our
fathers made three departments of the gov
ernment, each independent in itself, the ex
ecutive, the legislative, and the judicial, and
these the republican party would swallow
up and merge in their proposed strong
centralized government.
Col. Linton declined to enter upon an
elaborate argument upon the question of
negro suffrage. This, said he, is now a
mere war of opinions. If the white men of
this country do not at once assert their su
premacy, it may become in the end a san
guinary war of races, not to be ended ex
cept with the extinction of one or the other.
He instanced the Mormon war as a case in
point, Political parties pandered to them
Ihiinfitience, and tliekiiii" fietikiiitii - 4ted 4
distinct people ...were readyz y to cast a
solid vote for that party which
was`- most ready -to - grant them
excluiiVe 'privileges. This in the end
led..to the war of which you have all read.
He gave a most graphic picture of the evils
which must necessarily result from confer
ring the right of suffrage upon the negro.—
.He closed with an eloquent appeal to the
Pemocracy, urging them to activity and
vigilance in the struggle in which we are
now engaged. •
•
Throughout CoL Linton held his audience
as eager listeners, and he was constantly
interrupted by applause.
ErFEECH OF HON. C. L. PEEtSHING
After Col. Linton bad concluded, Hon.
Cyrus L. Pershing was introdttced to the
audience. Mr. PerShing protested against
making a speech, but proCeeded to make a
most excellent one. He said:
The Democratic party, it haS been said by
my friendiCol. Linton,never dodges an issue
and it presents to you in this contest candi
dates who would as little think of dodging
any responsibility, as they did of dodging
rebel bullets on the battle-field. Col.
Davis I have long known by reputa
tion and Colonel Linton was my
student and law partner. Ot course
I know him, and I tell you that a braver
or a truer heart never beat in any human
- bosom. I disagree with him in one assertion.
He said the offices to be filled were not im
portant in themselves. I tell you they are.
The office for which he is a candidate, and
to which I am confident he will be elected,
is a highly important one. You had better
have a corrupt Governor than a corrupt
Auditor General. There are corporations in
this State which could afford to give him a
princely fortune ;for merely shutting his
eyes.
. Mr. Pershing proceeded to expose some
of the lies of the Republican party by which
they had constantly striven to embitter the
soldiers against the Democratic party. He
stated that the very first resolution, thank
ing our soldiers for their gallantry, was in
troduced into the House of Representatives
of Pennsylvania by himself, after the battle
of Fort Donelson. The very first resolu
tion asking Congress to increase the pay
of the soldiers was introduced by
a Democrat, Mr. Alexander, of Clarion.
The Republican majority referred it to a
committee. It came back emasculated.
Mr. Myers, of Bedford, a Democrat, moved
to make it one dollar a day. That propo
sition was voted down by the Republican
majority, who would pass no resolution
fixing any higher amountthan that already
determined by Congress, which was just
thirteen dollars tt numth. After striving in
vain to get a definite sum inserted, the
-Democrats, finding they could do no better
for the soldier, all voted for the miserable
bill prepared by a Republican committee.
A great noise has been made about the
opposition of the Democratic party to the
soldiers voting. All this, too, has been a
tissue of glaring falsehoods. The law al
lowing Pennsylvania soldiers to vote iu the
field is very old. It existed on our statute
books for many years. Under David R.
Porter, a Democratic Governor, it was re
enacted by a Democratic Legislature+, and
the regiment of Colonel Davis no doubt
voted in Mexico under that law. The vote
was strongly Democratic, but the returns did
not reach here in time to be counted. Thus
the law stood in 1861. The Pennsylvania
soldiers again voted in the field under the
old law, which, if it had any political
parentage, was a Democratic measure.—
Again the returns were in favor of the De
mocracy. By the vote of the Philadelphia
soldiers a Democratic Sheriff and a Demo
cratic Register of Wills for that city were
elected. Then the Republican papers, the
Evening Bulletin, Forney's Press and others,
denounced the law as unconstitutional, and
Republican election officers undertook to
cheat Democrats out of their election by re
fusing to count the votes cast by the Phila
delphia soldiers for Register of Wills and
for Sheriff. This they persisted in until
Judge Ludlow informed them that they
might refuse to count the soldiers vote at
their peril. Then, when forced to do so,
they admitted the soldier vote and the de
mocrats were declared elected. In the
meantime another contest had arizen in
Luzerne county, where Judge Cunningham
had declared the law to be unconstitutional.
Both cases were taken to the Supreme Court.
Had Judge Woodward been influenced by
any but the purest motives, he might have
given such a decision as would have secured
the highly lucrative offices -of Sheriff and
Register of Wills of Philadelphia to his own
party friends rather than to their oppo
nents. The bill amending the Constitution
of the State, so as to allow soldiers to vote,
bad its origin in a Democratic House and a
Democratic committee. I was on it myself.
But two Democrats voted against it in the
House, and one of them had been a colonel
in the army, where he declared he had seen
enough of frauds to lead him to know that
the soldiers would not get a fair chance to
vote. So much for some of the lies gotten
up to influence the soldiers. Their only
hope is in subterfuges and falsehood. Last
full we gave you as gallant a soldier as lives
as our candidate fur President; this year
in Pennsylvania we have as our standard
two as brave soldiers as ever went forth to
battl6. They bear on their bodies numer
ous honorable scars to attest their devotion
to the Union.
That they will be triumphantly elected I
verily believe. Men are beginning to think
for themselves and to talk out. Every
where we hear of gratifying changes. The
Democratic party is full of vigor and activi
ty, while its opponents are divided anclonly
kept together by the cohesive power of pub
lic plunder. The signs of the times are most
cheering. Froth all parts of the State we
hear a good report. The principles of the
Democratic party are the hope of the coun
try and it will yet gloriously triumph. It
still stands firm and immovable.
"Like some tall cliff, whose awful form,
Swells from the vale, and midway leaves the
storm ;
Though round its base, dark, rolling clouds are
spread,
Eternal sunshine settles on its head."
The audience were delighted with the ad
mirable speech of Mr. Pershing, to which
we cannot pretend to do justice in this mea
gre report, and he was frequently inter
rupted by enthusiastic outbursts of applause.
At the conclusion of Mr. Pershing's
speech the meeting adjourned with a round
of cheers for our gallant standard bearer.
THE 0111) FELLOWS' CELEBRATION" AT
BALTIMORE.—We merely made mention
yesterday of the return of the delegations
of the Odd Fellows' Lodges of this city from
the great celebration of the Order at Balti
more. It was the grandest affair of the kind
ever witnessed in the United States, and
those who participated in it from this city
never expect to look upon its like again.
Our Lancaster Odd Fellows are in eestii
cies over their visit, and will never forget
the hospitality of the citizens of the Monu
mental City.
On Tuesday evening Lancaster and Mon
terey Lodge's and Washington Encamp
ment of this city, accompanied by the
splendid City Cornet Band, complimented
the Grand Sire of the Order in the United
States with a serenade at Barnum's Hotel.
The Baltimore American of Wednesday
thus speaks of it:
Last evening the Grand Sire of the I. 0.
0. F. and other dignitaries, were serenad
ed
Barnum's by the fine City Cornet
Band of Lancaster, in the presence of a large
audience of Odd Fellows grthered from all
parts of the Union, South as well as North.
Speeches weredelivered by Representatives
Hill, of California, Ford, of Massachusetts,
11. A. Lamberton, of Pennsylvania, and
Burnham, of Maine. All the addresses
bore on the reunion of the Order and its
significance. Just on the crushing of to
rebellion followed the union of the Order,
and that union was, without doubt, promo
tive of the firm reunion of the Slates. In
the Grand Lodge that day everything had
passed off harmoniously between the dele
gates from the South and North. "It was
a love-feast," fervently ejaculated one of
the speakers. All differences were forgot
ten; all prejudices dead; all the burden of
trouble and blood lifted from their should
ers, and they came together as brothers.—
The sentiments, especially those embody
ing patriotic and conciliatory ideas, were
loudly applauded ; at the conclusion of the
serenade the assembly sang an ode with the
band as an orchestra, and then quickly dis
persed. Quite a reunion, practically, was
had in one of the rooms of the hotel, where
the delegates met in a social way and toasts
and sentiments cemented the friendly and
brotherly feelings . already engendered as
one of the principles of the Order and
strengthened by the associations of the past
two days. Congratulations were exchang
ed over the happy. results attained in the
new reunion made during the day and new
hopes sprung up, with a glance over the
auspicious future.
The grand parade and dedication of the
monument to the lamented Wildey, the
founder of the Order in the United States,
took place on Wednesday. The procession
was over two hours in passing any given
point. The Lancaster brethren were as
signed prominent positions in the line. The
American has the following notice of Mon
terey Lodge of this city :
A feature of-the display of this Lodge
were the little boys who walked between
the band and the delegation, dressed from
top to toe in the old Continental uniform.
The little fellows trudged along bravely,
and seemed to feel highly honored by the
distinguished marks they made for obser
vation.
A great many of the Lancaster brethren
remained behind to participate in the grand
banquet to be given by the city authorities
of Baltimore, which was to take place yester
day. It was doubtless a magnificent affair,
as every preparation had been made to
make it such.
Gen. Frank Blair has been assigned to
command the cavalry in the department of
Missouri.
trrlowtolittrftlntatritatioottlifres ,
residing in Manheim township; near this
city, has, withintlie . last Month, had two
.young steers And a heifer shot by gunners
carelessly shooting among his cattle: The
Steers have died, and the heifer in all prob
shility.wilL Mr. Myers has neverinterfered
with persons gunning on his premises, and
such carelosiness is totally inexcusable and
deserves the severest punishment.
NEw FRACTIONAL CIIRRENCY.—Thenev
ten cent fractional currency has been put
in circulation and is an improvement on
the old issue. The pieces are a little larger
than theold tens, and shorter than twenty
five cent slips. Upon the face is a medal
lion head of Washington, with a factory
chimney and a ship's rigging on either side,
and a figure " 10" in gilt in four places.
The back is of a red color, and the figure
"10" in large gilt. They are printed on
bank note paper, and promise to be more
durable than the present currency.
ATTEND TO BEING ASSESSED—Mr. Wm.
B. Strine, Assessor of the North West Ward,
will sit at Trout's Western Hotel, West
Orange street, on Thursday and Friday
evenings next, between the hours of 7 and
9 o'clock, for the purpose of making assess

Mr. William Boas, Assessor of the South
West Ward, will sit at Groff's Cross-Keys

same purpose.
