iheir Battle Cry: "
:.Incompliance with ~ a. published call, a
Convention of negroes. assembled in Balti
more on, Tuesday.. Representatives were
present from ISissohri, Now York, Penn
sylvania, ./Sfarylatid, I`Zew Jersey, West
Virginia . and Tennessee.. The chief thing
done on 'Ttiesday was the, delivery of
speeches TreirCvarions Persons. A few ex
tracts from them 'will show the tone and
temper , of the convention. Wm. Nesbit, of
Pennsylvania, Vice President of the'Na-
Bona! Rights League, was the first speaker.
He said:,
" It was a lamentable fact that the colored
people, educated natives of the sell, who
had performed every duty required of them,
and wero infinitely better prepared to sym
pathize with the goverdment than weretbe
foreigners coming over here, bad not bad
their condition improved one iota, except
in some or the Southern States. The negro
question was n bone of contention in the
United States—indeed the only bone of
contention. Take the negro question from
the politics or the country, and there would
be nothing to quarrel about. One party
was endeavoring to elevate the colored race,
and the other to keep, them down. He ad
vised the colored race to stick to their
friends. Ho believed in their being united,
and urged the adoption of something by the
convention looking to the attainment of
that end."
A committee on permanent organiziffinn
was appointed, and while absent Wm. E.
Matthews, of Baltimore, addressed the
body.. lie said that they bad come there
to humbly claim all the rights and all the
immunities belonging to a free people.—
They had not come to stir up strife, but
knowing their rights, to dare to demand
them. Bo believed a good time was com
ing for the colored people—revolutions
never go backwards. Let the people of
Maryland know that although the colored
people bore their wrongs, it was only for a
while, but that they did not intend to suc
cumb in tae end. As long as the colored
people were kept out of the street curs, and
their accomplished mule and female teach
ers denied positions in the colored schools,
so long would they protest, not only here,
but at that house in Washington. Ile be
lieved that after the October election the
State of Maryland would be taken in hands
and cleansed.
Rev. A. L. Stanford addressed the con•
vention, lie spoke of the future hopeful
prospeas of the colored people. Be wets
distressed, however, to learn that so many
of the colored people down south were go•
Mg over to the Democratic party, Ile hoped
there were none such In Mary lann.
Judge Bond, of Baltimore, was invited to
be present and address the meeting, hut he
contented himself with writing o letter (the
weather being warm) in which tie made
large promises to the convention on behalf
of the Republican party, and concluded by
saying that he hoped the coo volition would
express its satisfaction with the nomina
tions of Grant and Colfax, and awaited in
hope the day when the enfranchisement of
the colored people should redeem Mary
land.
One white man did venture to make a
speech. Rev. William 11. Corkhlll, 01 lowa,
white, a Milner chaplain in the United
States army, was introduced to the co:even
vention by Howard Day, as being one of
the true and tried ft lends of the colored
people, and [nude a speech. Ile stated that
be had been an abolitionist ill his life, had
drank it in with tits mother's walk, and in
Boston a few days since hod seen a cumber
or colored men sitting in the halls of legis
lation. lie confessed that he stood amazed
nt the sight, like a eat in a strange garret.
Ile evils in favor of manhood suffrage; let
°very man vote.
An address to the negro voters of the
South was adopted front which we make
the following extracts:
We earnestly exort you that when in the
coming Presidential contest you are called
upon to exercise that inherent right upon
which depends the political freedom of our
race, you will remember us, your ilisfraw
diked brethren In thole Slates, who are
left In-duty at the mercy of the Democracy,
being denied the commonest right of man
hood, awl unless preserved through your
votes, we may be crushed to the lowest
conditions of State and national existence.
Therefore, wo look to you to relieve us
and yourselves from the perilous situation
in which we lint ourselves, and which
awaits you, unless you marshal your
mighty hosts, and like 11 well disciplined
legion, march to the bellot box, and there
put the enemy to flight who would oppress
and tyrannize over you.
Let the figure heads of the Democratic
party ace and feel that you are teen, and
that you gratefully recognize your oblige
tionTor all that you have rebived to the
magnanimity of the great Republican par
ty of our country ; and therefore, feeling
this debt of gratitude resting upon you, we
ask you, ill the name iii wvilizati,n, your
country, your race and Cod, to east your
consolidated cute In November next for them
illustrious soldier, unswerving petriot, the
lover of popular Ii her ty, peace nun pros
perity, Gen. U. S. Grant, Mr the Presiden
cy, nod that impartial and incorruptible
statesman, lion. Schuyler Colfax, for the
Vb.! Presidency of the United states. We I
fool dhat In these illustrious shindard-bear
erm Mills national Republicens, us In the
lintriortel Lincoln, is to lie Mond our hope
and safety for the continuation 1/f national
peace and the rights which you already
possess. Wu ask you to beware, and with
the eye of en etude watch these alluring
Democratic enemies, and with disdainful
suspicion turn away from their deceptive
bide and honeyed words which they will
employ to entrap you Into their ranks.
Their oily tongues, like the eye of n ehurm-
Mg serpent, would snatch from vott those
rights which you hold peremount to life
!Wilt', mid return you lo that barbarous
demoralizing Institution out of which the
struggling leers of republicanism has
brought you.
You are to decide in 'November next, et
the ballot-box, with your legion of 1100,000
political warriors, whether republicanism
skull triumph, by NV blob American liberty
Is to be porpetuatedeor whether you will
desert the ranks of the army of the republic
and go over to your enemies. No. God for
bid that a single black man should cast his
vote for any ni her then the nominees of the
great republican party. Let the embodi
ment in your political salvation, General
U. S, Druid and Colfax, be perched upon
your every banner.
The Convention then adiourned until
Wednesday morning.
'nu Negro Convention et Baltimore con
tinued Its session through \ etinesday.—
Resolutions Instrinaing the negroes 01 the
South 10 vote for Grant and Colfax, end
demituding universal anti 'lige mid the right
-blacks to hold olliee every where were
adopted. There was much discussion as
to the proper time for holding it National
Negro Convention, Some wanted It to mutest
bolero the Presidential election, and a reso
lution to that effect was adopted, but one
dnrkey named Dr. Brown got the floor and
opposed the action which had been taken.
Ile said, the colored people had been told
by leading Republicans to wait until alter
the election, and then they should have
their political rights, Lt December they
could say, "We have now N,vaited until
If mitt in elected and Colfax is in the Sen
ate,' now we want the universal en (Imp
bill passed." They would have Senators
at that time to visit their convention, and
they could tell them that " we have abided
your time, now give us our rights."
After some further discussion, in which
confidence was expressed that the next
Congress would agree tu their demands fur
the passage of u law giving them the right
of suffrage in all the border and northern
States, the second Wednesday of January
was fixed as the day for the assembling of
the National Negro Convention in the city
of Washington.
✓ Tho expression ofa beliefthat they would
turquestionably be given the right to vote
and hold office in all the States, by Con
gress, Grant ens elected, Wits 11110:01 sal;
and It was stated by some or the speakers,
that they had the promise of leading Repub
lican Congressmen to thud effect.

Cheer) ow News from Missouri
Sr Louis, Aug. s,—The Missouri Demo
crat State Convention met in this city yes
terday. The attendance was very large and
theirreatest confidence of success prevails
among the members from all parts of the
State. A most significant fact is that A. F.
Krueger, a representative of the German
element, and present treasurer of the city
of St Louis has gone over to the Democracy
and is seeking the nomination for State
Treasury feeling sure that they will curry
the state.
The Convention nominated Hon. John S.
Phelps for Governor, and Col. N. J. Cole
man for Lieutenant Governor. Among the
resolutions adopted were the following:
First, 'that we hall with unbounded satis
faction the nomination of Horatio Seymour
and F. I'. Blair for President and Vico
President of the United Slates, upon u plat
form of principles bold, earnest, sound and
truthful; that with fixed purposes and un
conquerable zeal we will labor in this can
rams to the end that our country may be re
deemed and regenerated.
Second. While wo are willing to protect
the colored race from every assault upon
their natural rights, wo are unalterably op
posed to negro sullrage and negro equality,
its logical sequence. The proposition now
pending in this State to admit to the elective
franchise the untutored African, while
thousands of intelligent, Industrious and
law-abiding white men are excluded from
the ballot• box, is a gross insult to our race,
And a ghastly monstrosity of the common
est principles of lustico.
Third. That the declaration of the Ws-
sour( Radicals in their platform, that they
cherish no 'revengeful feelings towards
those who fought in lair open battle, though
for an unjust cause, and stand ready to re
store to them every political privilege at the
earliest moment consistent with State and
national safety Is n transparent falsehood,
in view of the fact, that though the reason
ing of the United States Supremo Court In
the adjudication of cases proves the Mis
souri test oath unconstitutional, null and
void, this party of proscription still require
the oath to be administered, and are at the
present moment reorganizing their political
machinery through the Infamous regula
tion, to give strained and unwarranted in
terpronitions of that oath.
Fourth, We challenge the world to pro
duce in the whole history of tyranny a par

pression, the grinding, Inexorable despot.
lint of the Radical party of Missouri in its
dealings with the F.eopler The rule of that
iarty has brought utter demoralization
nto almost every branch of the public ser

representatives; has robbed the State

and squandered thousands more on

The Boot on the Other Leg.
Not long ago an old notorious) y cruel
slave-driver, who hod been converted Into
a truly 101 l and moral earpot•bitgger, was
shot in a negro brothel In Colam bus,Geor
gia. lioneral Meade immediately offered
the enormous sum of $40,000 to suborn ne
gro testimony which should Implicate one
or more of several white citizens who were
summarily arrested and imprisored upon
the basest suspicion that they might have
been concerned in the crime of murdering
Ashburn. Whose money Meade magnifi
cently offered in this cause has not yet
peered. It has not been called for, though
the entire negro and carpot•bagging popu
lation of the vicinity made strenuous efforts
to earn a share of this munificent 'reward.'
But the suspected citizens were subjected
to the horrors of imprisonment, and subse
quently to the greater terrors of trial by a
military commission. The case went final
ly and nominally to a civil court; the pris
oners wore eventually released from dur
ance, and sent home under guard. This is
one case. Last Saturday night, In Charles
ton, South Carolina, ten or twelve black
barnacles attached to what is called the
"Legislature" in that city, were congrega
ted in what they style a boarding house,
but which a party of white men clammed
to 'be a bagel% A disgraceful encounter
ensued, Shots were exchanged and , during
the melee one men was killed by one of the
negroes in the boarding•house or brothel.
The case is the Ashburn affair 'over again,
with this difference thatinstead of the
murder of a white man Ina negro bagnio,
a white man is shot in the street from a ne
gro "boarding house." The boot is on the
other leg. The Radical os is not gored.
Consequently theremill be no magnificent
offer of ;40,000 of the people's money for the
murderer; there will be no arrest of the
dozen negroes, one of whom certainly kill,
ed the white man . no bloody shirt will be
carried at the head of a Radical procession
in the town of Rogratu in Wiseonsin, and
no " revolution." The negro who killed
the white Mau may be a murderer, but his
"loth)." cover up the crime.

preaching.
The New York Herald, which has
been eupporting Grant, seems to be get
ting its eyes opened. In Saturday's
Issue we dud the following remarkable
editorial, which has little consolation
in it. for Radicals:
The figures, as they come In from Ken
tucky, are mounting up for the Democratic
majority. The last returns, which we pub
lished yesterday, set down eighty thousand
majority for Stevenson, the Democratic
candidate for Governor, and these returns
represent the country istricts from which
they come in slowly, and will probably
show larger gains, according as they are
received. The result of the June election
in Oregon was quite as remarkable an evi
dence that the people nro awake to the
multifarious mischief which the Radical
party has wrought in its administration of
the Government. Wo cannot, therefore,
shut our eyes to the direction cf these straws
which show how the wind blows.—
The Republican majority in Oregon
in 1860 was 327; the Democratic majority
for member of Congress (the solitary
one who represents that young State) was,
at the election of the first Monday in June,
1868, 1,200. Hera was a gain of the anti
radical party of over fifteen hundred voles
in a voting population of about twenty
thousand. Taking these two States as an
example, we will find that the people are
not abandoning their hostility to the wan
ton and dangerous policy of the ruling fac
tion, which during three years of peace has
increased the national debtand kept up war
prices and war taxation. The Ken tuck y elec
tion has taken place since the Presidential
nominations of both parties were made ; and
yet so far from the nomination of' the radi
cal convention strengthening the• back
bone of the faction, or the nomination of
Seymour and Blair weakening the spinal
column of the democracy in that State, they
have turns I events the other way. These
results are but the early indications (the
skirmish fires as it were) of the great revo
lutionary battle which is about to open. If
the other State elections which are to conic)
off between this and the Presidential con
test in November should happen to give
like indications of popular hostility to the
radical usurpations and corruptions, who
can toll but that the nominees of the Chicago
Convention may bo overwhelmed by the
weight of radical malndininistration since
the rebellion was wound up by Gen. Grant
that they have to carry on their shoulders?
If we look at the f..cts which confront the
people when they coma to vote, NVO find that I
taxes to the amount of three thousand
millions of dollars have boon ;imposed
upon us. Wo find that the national debt
has been Increased to the tuneof three thou
sand millions more. And this, when the
country is at peace and the people had n
right to hope for a reduction of taxes and
the national obligation as the fruit of vic
tory won, God knows with what terrible
sacrifices to every home and hearth in the
country. But instead of the load being
lightened we are called on to bear further ex
actions, to submit to increased expenditures.
In order to keep a portion of the country
in subjection more troops are called for.—
Men foisted into Congress from the South
ern States, and Governors who really
represent little more than a mock constitu
ency, demand from the government on ex
pensive army to assist them in carrying
out schemes and ambitions which are pure
ly partisan and are positively destructive
of the pence and good of the country. It
Is facts like these which meet intelligent
mon of all parties when they come to cast
their votes, and we cannot be surprised
that majorities are found to protest em
phatical.y agalnst• a continuance of this
kind of government.
The people demand a change, and It Is
the people, and not any particular party,
who will make the Issue at the approaching
election. Names and individual candidates
count for_very little in this contest. Itlis
cheap government, honestly administered
in view of the fact that the country is at
peace, which the people require. Aserious
counter-revolntion, therefore, terrible to the
'
politicians no doubt, but good and whole
some for the people—because It is being
born of the people—ls at bend. Nothing
but the marvellous activity of our populit
lotion and the untold resourcesof the coun
try could enable us to bear the present bur
den of taxation or Induce us to submit to
carry it so long, But it is evident that a
reaction has set in, and it may be that
in the course of events as now fore•
shadowed the next elections will re
sult in sending a majority to Con
gress possibly in favor of repudiation, but
certainly In lavor of a vast reduction of the
present enormous taxation. Tho public
mind leans that way. Let us have peace,
real peace, is the popular cry, and the pop
ular heart naturally yearns for the posses
sion of that prosperity which should ac
company peace. The result of the Presi
dential election may be so vaguely decided
In the conflict between the rights of the
Northern and Southern States In the mat
ter of franchise 1113 regulated by Radical
legislation as to drift us into another civil
war ; but it Is clearly the duty of the North
ern Stales to sot the seal emphatically upon
the Issue by their votes and leave nothing
to chance or no opening for conflict. The
expression of anti-Radical sentiment in the
late elections in Kentucky and Qregon is
but the porcursor of a great counter-revo
lotion, upon the verge of which the country
stands this moment.

have been murdered in the Slate, within
the last month and a half. There seems to
be a settled determination among these men
to drive away all Union men and influen
tial colored men so as to terrify the masses,
and dictate bow they shall vote. There is
a secret organization throughout the State,
known as the K. W. 0., founded expressly
for persecuting the colored people, and pre
cipitating a conflict between the two races,
It was their deliberate determination to
assassinate the Lieutenant Governor and
Speaker of the House, for having decided
questions In a manner obnoxious to them.
There are military organizations on foot In
New Orleans under auspices of this secret
society ; they drill openly at night, in the
streets and halls. They are sworn to carry
out the purposes of the organization' at any

It has now transpired that the mob which

Colonel C. C. Gardner, of Elmira, New

tofore a Republican, comes out squarely for
the Democratic' ticket. in a publishedlet
ter he says: 1 .! • •
Congress should be arraigned and ques

' Let Congress, answer for .depriving ten
St4tes of all civil government for the last
three years!
There can be no equality' in the sister
hood of States, if conditions may be biz,
posed upon some and not on all. Wo are
a Union of equals. No other doctrine Ives
entertained by the statesmen of 1789. Con•
gressnow assumes a. new wisdom, and
proposes to rebuild the superstructure of
our Government, better and more enduring
than our Fathers in direct violation of au
established Constitution, solemnly ratified
by the people. 511E111 we surrender this
priceless heritage of constitutional civil
government, bequeathed to us by a wiser
generation, without a struggle within the
constituted forms of law?
Let Congress answer for their encroach
ments upon the executive and judicial de
partments of the National Government, and
every actor tyrannyand misrule calculated
to Inflame the passions of one section of the
country against those of another.
Let Congress answer for keeping down
the credit of the Government, continuing a
depreciated currency, taxing the people un
equally, appropriating the public funds im
providently, and sustaining profligate and
corrupt officials!
There is but one way by which these de
sired changes can be brought about, end
that Is to endorse the action of the New
York National Convention.
Bon. P. T. Backus, or, Cleveland, Ohio, a
bitter opponent of the Democratic party
heretofore, is now stumping it for Seymour.
Ile is an able speaker, us the following ex
tract from a speech made ut Cleveland will
show :
" Fellow-citizens—aye, Democrats! That
has boon a hard word for me to mouth!
For a quarter of a century I have been
trained as a Republican, and It comes hard
to designate myself as a Democrat; but
when treason rises up at the North, after
the flag has floated in triumph over rebel
lion, when, for the unholy purposes of the
party in power, the Union has been kept
asunder—the Union that all fought for, only
to have it prove an ibmisfalaus; when one
third of that Union today is ilubject to a
power, In time of peace, unrecognized
by the Constitution—not to secure vic
tory, not to render the triumph for
all time, but for the selfish purpose
of preserving In perpetuity the power of a
party unfit to wield it; when, all these years,
that party had been laboring, not to heal
sectional wounds and the bitterness engen
dered by war, but to see by what assump•
tions of power they could prevent the South
from coming back us Democratic States,
and thus keep in place the party that is
rioting in spoils—l say, when such condi
tions have existed for three yours, he that
would stammer in pronouncing himself a
Democrat—whose party is the only one to
which we can look for succor from these
woes—is no man for the times. [Deafening
cheers.] And I say to-night, what I have
never said before, that I stand here a Dem
ocrat—a Democrat us defined in the platform
of the New York Convention. I am willing
to fight under the banner of the Democracy,
and, God willing, we will achieve a victory.
[Cheers.]
Tho Ripon, Wisconsin, Representative
comes out in the following style:
For the past year we have been failing,
slowly and surely failing, and to day we
give up the ghost. Nye have not, in these
twelve months, been failing in health, nor
have we suffered pecuniarily much loss. It
is politically that we have gone up. Wo
fail to see that the Republican party is what
it should be, or what many of its friends in
years past supposed it was the intention of
its leaders to make It. The ghost which we
have given up is Radical Republicanism.
From this day henceforth and forever,
to the tints when we are planted beneath
the sod under which all Republicans and
Democrats must sooner or later lie, we
shall advocate, In our humble way, the
principles of Democracy. We want it
distinctly understood, as wo wish to re
ceive all the cursing from Republicans
as soon es convt-nient. There are many
causes that have led to this decided change
In this raper. The prime cause Is the total
failure of the party to do a single thing
toward the reconstruction of the country.
Tito loaders appear to Its not to care a con
tinental what happens to it State If she don't
cast a Republican vole. The Government
supports degrees In Idleness, because they
vote the Republican ticket ; and starve
white men because they do not. This, white
men can not allow. They will not allow it.

for Seymour.
Hon. Richard Uregg, of Aurora, Dear

Republican, made a speech for Seymour
and Blair last week.
The Ulster Democrat, published [it Kings
ton, N. Y., and heretofore a Radical organ,
has discarded Grant and Colfax and placed
Seymour and Blair at the mast heed. The
Democrat Is now doing great service for the
Democracy. This is another eyidencoof the
turning et the tide against Radicalism.
The Green.hurg, Indiana, Erimitor.
heretofore a Radb.al Abolition sheet, has
declared for Seymour and Blair It says
that " the German Republicans of Intdana
era abandoning that party by thousands
and enrolling themselves among the sup
porters of Seymour and Blair." They see
how the wind blows and act wisely.
Mrs. Elizabeth Cady Stanton, In nn cdl•
tonal article published in the Revolution, a
New York paper, nays: "In closing wo
appeal to every patriot to forget all past
ditlbrences and unite with us in tho groat
approaching struggle to elem. Horatio Sey
mour and Frank Blair, that the war for the
Union, the Constitution and the Laws, may
be commenced In earnest."
The Dayton Lcdgcr says t "Chas. Morris,
of Troy, Ohio, ono of the leading lawyers of
Miami county, and hitherto an active Re
publican has publicly announced his im
minion to support Seymour and Blair.
Quite a number of other prominent Repub
licans in Miami county have renounced
their former faith, and the Democracy there
are even confident of being able to carry the
county this tall."
The tido has turned against the Radicals
everywhere, and the cerrupt•crew, who
have concentrated all the powers of the
guvernineut in the hands of Congress, will
surely be swept out of (Ake nt the c,iniing
elections.
Utah and the Mormons
The delegate in Congress from Utah, Mr.
W. :I. Ilooper, has recently given an inter
esting sketch of that Territory, in a letter.
According to this account, the Mormons
have built up Utah from a desert waste,
which twenty. ,years ago was twelve hun•

State, containing ono hundred thousand
inhabitants, with a territorial extension of

water logged and abandoned, and Ina sink

Hook. She was towed to the Highlands,
and given In charge of the Submarine
Wrecking Company, who pumped her out,
when the bodies of three seamen were
found In the hold. The name of the vessel
was ascertained to be the H. Trowbridge,
of New Haven, which sailed hence on the

she was in command of Captain Hotchkiss,
who had his wife and family on board, and
as they have not been hoard from they are

The prospects in Ohio are very oncourag

State. The nomination of Seymour gives
universal satisfaction, and creates much en

How the Trui.pnyers are Robbed—Frauds
At Harrisburg.
We learn from a Harrisburg paper that
the contract for furnishing the State with
printing paper for the ensuing year was,
on Saturday last, awarded to certain par
ties who are said to have had " a good
thing " of similar contracts for several years
past. The feature of this contract which
particularly concerns the tax-payer Is the
fact that other equally responsible parties
proposed to furnish the same paper at sev
eral cents per pound loss, the difference in
the aggregate amounting to not less than
Ton Thousand Dollars! As the honest
reader has no doubt already surmised, this
Is a Simon Pure Radical steal. The
contract is awarded by the Superintendent
of Public Printing, one of Gov. Geary's pot
officials, subject to the approval of that pink
of "loyalists," the Auditor General. ' , Here
we have a beautiful illustration of how the
Radicals put tnelr professions of retrench
ment and reform into practice. A pair of
'loyal" State officials, highin the confidence
of Gov. Cleary, and no doubt with his conni
vance, "approve" n "nice little arrange
ment" which robs the overburthened
taxpayers of Ra Thousand Dollars in
a single year, and puts It into the
pockets of a few shoddy patriots, who are
always on the lookout for a steal. General
Hartrinift,withoutwhose "official approval"
this huge swindle could not have been
consummated, is a candidate for re-election
this full, and probably it was In "the bond"
that a portion of this steal should be used
In aid ot his election, as' it is understood
that liberal contributions from State Con
tractors to the Central Committee have
heretofore been a sum passport to the con
fidence and official favor of n " loyal " ad
ministration I ONE. WEO
For too lutellloucor.
"The Fizzle."
Tito article In the Expreth9 of the ith
signed 11., in reply to the "Radical Fizzle"
that appeared In your paper, is written in
very had taste, but worse judgment. He
evidently felt mortified that the meeting
was so poorly attended by Republicans,
and more readily discovered the Demo
crats, a few being in the assembly. This
fact be acknowledges, when he misrepre
sents the conduct of two clever Democrats
anti assails them personally. He says that
the meeting was " large and enthusiastic."
It' by enthusiastic he meant noisy no one
will deny the latter assertion, because the
speakers and ()Moe-hunters became dis
heartened with the crowd, or disgusted
with themselves, made very short speeches,
and advanced no argument. They kept
the Band playing almost Incessantly, for
which they agreed to pay liberally, It was
finally determined that the offlce.seekers
(there wore few others) present shou.id pay
from two dollars and a half down to liquor
ter, according to their expectation of suc
cess at the coming election.
I wonder whether H. In Ids glorxanci en
thusiasm was not persuaded to pay the lar
ger sum, and now feels chagrined that ho
did so foolish an act.
That the meeting was respectable, I ad•
mit, there were many Democrats of that
class in the village of New Holland, and a
number were present at the meeting. The
President and all the speakers, 'except the
Martin Dr.) Mr. H. says wore Ewa. These
two classes would certainly compose a re
spectable as....embly. Were any Esqrs., left
In Lancaster that night?
That it was a large meeting, no person
that has any regard for his veracity will as•
sort, and it is to be regretted that the Law
does not permit hanging for lying, If H.
cannot be compelled " to stretch rope," he
should be strapped by Winfield, whom he
false)/led.
Utile meeting had been originated, and
gotten up by our enterprising Landlord- 7
Mr. Derstler, instead or by the Esquires of
your city, It no doubt would have been a
success.

lections were then taken for the benefit of
the band, but as the "quarters" did not show
themselves as freely as it was desired, the
Democrats were called upon t¢ midst them
out of their difficulty.

EDUCATIONAL.--Theeducational Interests
of Pennsylvania are stated to be In a more
flourishing condition, at this time, than at
any previous period In the history of the
State. Last year 81,800,000 were expended
in the building of school houses,—over e500,-
000 more than was over paid for a shriller
purpose In any preceding year; during the
present year (1808) 82,000,000 have already
been expended for the erection of school
houses, and 6.500,000 more will be needed to
complete school buildings now In process
of construction. There Is a marked im
provetnent In the furniture, grounds and
appurtenuncesof schoolprombies, and more
teachers from the common schools attended
the normal institutes during the present
year than In any twele months previous.
There seems to be a general interest on the
pert of teachers, and u growing Interest in
the schools Is manilesteci by the people in
many sections of the State.
IMPORTANT TO HOTEL AND RESTAURANT
KEEPERS, APOTITECARIES AND OTBERS.-
In list of new revenue regulations,
which wo publish elsewhere, will be found
a clause declaring that all who salt cigars
or tobacco in any shape, must pay a revenue
license in addition to the license they al
ready pay. Let them look at the decislon.
Taxes are being multiplied, but still the
debt increases. What becomes of the
money?
ANOTELER FIZZLE AT MILLERSVILL.—
A correspondent Informs us that the Radi
cals made another attempt to get up a meet•
Mg at Millersville. The thing was a fizzle
again. J. G. Peters undertook to enlighten
the dozen or.ao who was present. Ho is
understood to be a candidate for the Legis
lature. His speech was a rediculous array
of absurdities. The Radicals seem to be
deaidedly disheartened by the repeated
failures to get up any excitement.
BEER STATISTICEI.—Any one passing our
depot,just before the departure of ii train
either East or West, cannot help noticing
the huge piles of kegs, full and empty
stacked up along the track and cannot
avoid involuntarily admitting that the
Lager Beer business has assumed immense
proportions in our city. Lancaster in
America occupies the same position that
Munich does in Germany, In regard to this
branch of industry, The fame of our beer !
has spread over the whole Union, and
wherever we go, whether North, South,
East or West, Lancaster Lager Beer" is
known, and drank too, if procurable, in
preference to any other. The shipments
by Adam's Expresa Company alone will
average over one hundred kegs per day,
and besides this many wagon loads are
distributed through the city and places in
Its vicinity every morning.
It is estimated that about 30,000 barrels
were brewed'here during the past season,
and.had there, been 00,000 they all might
have been readily disposed of to customers
outside of the city. In fact so great has the
demand become for Lancaster Beer that,
notwithstanding, the continual improve
meats ana:onlargementa of the different
Breweries, the supply is still very Mad
equate. This demand would; increase two
fold if some me nh Were devised by which
the beer could he taken to its destination

(for nothing deteriorates in quality more
rapidly.) as that pi which the beer leaves
Me cool wafts 9f out Breweries. Might
not., an Icei...gbuac-Car be constructed to
runwith the regular Express trains in which
the beer could bo carried and delivered at
Philadelphia or Pittsburg with vary nearly
the same degree of temperature us when it
leaves the vaults? The Adam's Express
might make a profitable invetament in this
manner. II would bo only necessary to line
the inner sides and roof of the car either
with sine or' light boards, and fill up the
space between with saw dust, which would
serve to protect the beer from the heat and
insure a better quality of the article to con
sumers abroad. The construction of such
care would contribute greatly to thee pres.
parity of Lancaster brewers, as well as to
that of our citizens generally, while it would
prove, at the same time, a paying invest
ment to the Express Company.

THE • CIATTEE DISEASE.-A disease very
destructive to the cattle of some pot dons of
Missouri, Illinole and Indianna has recent
ly made its appearance, and It is supposed
to have been brought to those states by
cattle from Texas. The drovers and cattle-.
dealers of the West are greatly alarmed at
the appearance of this strange malady,whose
attacks appear to be always fatal, and whose
presence among their herds is attended with
such disusterous consequences. We un
derstand that a Lancaster County cattle
dealer named G roll recently had thirty bead
of cattle to die in Pittsburg of this disease.
Our Eastern farmers have been much alarm
ed lest this disease should be brought
among them by Western cattle shipped
from Chicago to the Philadelphia market.
In reference to this matter the Pittsburg
Gazette says:
" We learn that three car-loads of the
specially affected lot of 800 spoken of were
shipped East before the railroad company
were apprised of the true state of things.
To what point eastward those care have
gone we do not learn. There wore some
transactions In cattle yesterday at the
yards, but confined wholly to droves not
believed to be infected. Some dealers, not
finding a market hero, have started their
drove eastward by the turnpikes." The
officers of the Pennsylvania Central Rail
road on learning the facta as here recorded.
promptly ordered that no more droves
among which any signs of the diseaae had
appeared, should be shipped over their
road ; but before title precaution had been
taken, several car-loads of infected animals
had reached the East, and had been sold to
the butcher. A gentleman who visited one
of the principal cattle-yards of New York
recently,:itilorma us that of a drove of 100
head that was shipped from Chicago to that
point, nearly one-half died before coining,
and the remainder wore hastily alaughtered
and sold to the butcher. Our Informant
himself saw a number of dead cattle lying
in the yard, What afterward became of
them is not known.
. . .
The symptoms are,thus described: The
animal at first becomes dr:lwsy or stupid,
which is followed by„consttpation of the
alimentary or urinary canals. 13v strain
ing and over exertion they seem to rupture
themselves internally, tutu blood is dis
charged, The animal subsequently swells
up and dies.
