MEETING AT LERAYSVILLE We have a letter from the Chairman of the Republican State Executive Committee, an nouncing the Hon. HANNIBAL HAMUV, of Maine, will speak at Montrose, on Saturday 11th inst., and at Jsraysvilh rn Monday af tc- noon ihc 13 th met. There will be no failure in his presence unless some unforeseen contin gency should occur. No man in the Union commands a greater degree of our respect and admiration than Gov. HAMLIN. lie has al ways been a Democrat, but when the Cincin nati Convention made its pro-slavery platform, and .TAMP.S BUCHANAN with indecent haste jumped upon it, he rose in his seat in the Sen ate, and in plain and manly language declared that he could not support such measures nor such a man. Nominated as the Republican candidate for Governor of Maine, every effort was made by the Slavery propagandas to effect his defeat. Of thi* result tliry were sanguine, but the peo ple of Maine, by 25,000 majority, attested their confidence in his integrity and their de votion to the principles of Freedom. Coining with this proud endorsement of the Freemen of Maine, his presence with us, will be a grati fication which the people of Eastern Bradford will unquestionably enjoy. 6aT Amor.gst the many plan? employed to defeat I/ATORTF:, it is expected to diTert votes in the Western part of the Coant?, upoo local questions. We appeal to the Republicans of Western Bradford not to lie itsed by the un scrupulous men who make this boost. You cannot ( fleet your interests by any such coarse, while every vote lost for LACORTK at the State election, is equivalent to a vote cast ngniuft FRPMONT in November. The attempt will be made to excite your local prejudices. Remem ber, that those who attempt it, are looking af ter Mr. DCLHASAN'S interests, uot your? Kallv ! Freemen to the Polls! w This is the lust occasion we shall have to urge upon tliw Freemen of Bradford County the importance of the present contest, and the necssity for united and vigorous action. On Tuesday next, is to be decided questions of great moment to the prosperity and perpetuity of our Country. It is every man's duty to BE AT THE POLLS ! Rain or shine, suow or sleet. We say again, BE AT THE POM-S ! and be there before they are ojened. When the polls are opened, vote yourself, and see that every Republican in the township is there. Beat the Polls all day, and if there is a voter absent, start out after him. Do everything that is honorable, and leave no exertion undone to GET OUT THE VOTERS ! It is needless to say, that the Buchaniers wiil do so. They have been supplied with mo ney from Custom Houses, and interested capi talists, to get out every voter, and they will leave no efforts untried to poll all their votes. The Freemen of Bradford must give ONE DAY TO THEIR COUNTRY ! or the efforts of the organized pro-slavery dis unionists will prove successful. If the free la boring men of the country, will be vigiluntand industrious, all will be well. DONT N EGLECT THE STATE TICKET! Upon the State Ticket depends our success in November. See that every man votes for the State Ticket—-COCHRAN, PIIELPS, and LAPORTE. Their election decides the hat tie of the Presidency. Against them, all the efforts of the slave-propngaudista will be di rected. RALLY! FREEMEN, RALLY! Your country calls upon you to devote one day to her interests. As this election is but a preliminary skirmish to decide the Presiden tial battle, you should lend all your efforts to promote the success of your principles now.— Freemen of Bradford ! Are yon anxious to attest your detestation of the Administration FRANKLIN PIKRCF. —your unqualified disappro bation of its measures and policy ? Are you anxious to rebuke the monstrous infraction of National faith committed in the Repeal of the Missouri Compromise ? Are you anxious to express your deep abhorrence of the plan to force slavery in Kansas, and your indignation at the outrages committed upon your neigh bors and friends by the border-ruffians of Mis souri, aided by the United States authorities, with the approbation of the sham Democ racy ? RALLY TO THE POLLS ! Do yon believe that capital should hire its labor, not own it—that Free Society is not a failure—nor made up of " greasy mechanics, filthy operatives, and small fisted farmers," — do you believe that labor is honorable, not de grading—do you love Freedom not Slavery, and desire for your children an opportunity to emigrate to the West without encountering the degrading presence of negro bondage RALLY TO THE POLLS ! An attempt is now making by means of the name of Democracy to subvert oar free insti tutions—to deride the teachings of our fore fathers—to put new and dangerous construc tions upon the Constitution—by means of which Slavery may lie introduced upon every foot of the soil of this Republic. The slave power usurps and controls every branch of the government, and pervades and domineers over every department, proscribing and outlawing those who bold to the opinions of Jefferson and the fathers of the Republic. Mob law and violence prevent the free expression of sentiments in one portion of the country, with the approbation of the slave-driving adjuncts north. Would you mark with your disappro bation this state of things RALLY TO THE POLLS ! Rally ! all those who would bring back the government to the designs and purposes of its founders—all who would carefully comply with every requirement and compromise of the Con stitution—all who desire to see the government administered upon liberal and national princi ples, and in such a manner as to PRESERVE BOTH LIBERTY AND THE UNION ! Rally, on Tuesday next, to-nid in swelling the glorious victory which awaits ns. Every vote added to the majority on that day makes our victory more easy and certain in November. Rally, for the glorious cause of Freedom, Free Speech, Free Men, FREMONT AND DAYTON I ONE VOTE. Remember one vote has decided mighty events in the political history of the world.— One vote has decided the fate of Kings, made Governors, Congressmen, and Senators. Then fail not every freeman, to go to the polls and cast a vote for the true Repnblican candidates whose names are found at oor head. Do not falter or stay at home because yon may think there is or will be enough without you. If all were to make sueh excuses for themselves, of course we should fail electing anyone, or leave the matter in the hands of those who might for unworthy motives, attend and control yonr sentiments. TURN OUT EARLY, aud vote and work till the battle is fairly fooght and the victory gloriously won, and like worthy oobooght freemen proudly Ijrust and wear it. 19* Rev. W. H. H. DWTKR will address the Young Men's Fremont and Dayton Clob of this Borough, at the Court Qouac, on Fri day evcuiug, Oct. 10. THE UNION STATE TICKET. The most deeperute efforts are being made bj the Bachauicrs to defeat the Union State Ticket, or some portion of it. Tbcy sec the handwriting on the wall—they feci they arc doomed to defeat on Tuesday next, and their overthrow theu extinguishes the last lingering hope of BUCHANAN'S election. To effect a division of the Fillmore men, they are resort ing to the most disgraceful expedients. The Pennsyli-avian tR charging that all the Union State Ticket is in favor of FRKMONT, and ap pealing to the FILLMORE men not to support it. The fire is particularly directed at LAFORTK. Nominated as a Republican, his position upon the Presidency is supposed to be more assaila ble than either of the others. It is but a few days since, that one of the Buchanier leaders in this place was at Athens endeavoring to procure a statement or affida vit from FILLMORE men there, to the effect that LAPORTE was making speeches for FREMONT, and denouncing FILLMORE. In this, he failed, as the FILLMORE men declined certifying to a falsehood. Not succeeding in this, the follow ing statement has been signed by a few of the faithful, aud forwarded to Philadelphia, where it appears in tbo advertising columns of the ledger:— We, the undersigned, eitiiens of Bradford county, and for a loiifc time resident* therein, and personally acquain ted with Bartholomew Laporte, a candidate for the office of Surveyor General 011 the State ticket of the Repubii c.n party of Pennsylvania, declare freely and unreserv edly, that he occupie* the same position as David Wil mot upon the slavery question, and generally upon all political questions. His speeches before the people of our region, leave no doubt whatever as to his being deep ly imbued with Abolitionism ; in short, he is a bigot up on these subjects of the most ultra description. He is. and has been ever since the nomination, an open and zea lous supporter of John (J. Fremont for the Presidency, and an opponent of Millard Fillmore and copies closely tho example and efforts of Wilinot in the present canvass. Wm. Patton, Jno. F. Means, E. W. Baird, J. E. I'iollct, A. L. Oranmer, William Scott, C. S. Russell, I>. Cash, D.C.Hall, William Ellwell, D. A. Overton, J. D. Montanye, Win. R. Storrs, Wm. A. Chaiuberlin, Eras. Smith, H. B. McKean, Stephen Pierce. D. F. Barstow, V. E. Piollct, A. McKean. There is a commandment that " thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor," which is worthy of the consideration of those signing this certificate. Living in the neigh borhood of Mr. LAPOKTE, there is no excuse for the falsehoods and misrepresentations this precious document contains. They knew the statements made are false in every essential particular. They know that LAPORTF. is not an Abolitionist, in any sense of the term ; they do not know that he has made any speeches during the present can Tass, nor that he has assailed Mr. FILLMORE, as is intended to be inferred from their certificate. As the object is to convey to the FILLMORE men below the impression that Mr. LAPORTF. is zealously opposing FILLMORE, and that he is an " abolition bigot " of the " most ultra des cription," we pronounce it a disreputable at tempt to injure a neighlwr, by means ef false hood and deception. We are not surprised at some of the names which appear, because the owners would stoop to anything to carry their political ends, and to gratify their malevolence —but there are names appended which aston ish us. We believe they have been signed thoughtlessly, and without a knowledge of the base use to which they were to be put. Daring the present canvass, we have been honored with the presence of several dis tinguished geutleraen, preaching Buchananism. Hitherto they have been honorable and cour teous gentlemen, who sought by argument to bring our voters to their way of thinking and acting. Whatever success they may have had, we certainly have no disposition to find fault, because their conduct was gentlemanly and courteous. All this time we have been threat ened with the presence of Mr. ELLIS B. SCHNA BEL, whose feats hare been the admiration of the Pennsylvanian for some weeks past. On Friday night la6t, this person delivered himself of a speech at the Court House, iu this place. We bad the curiosity to hear what this great champion of BCCBAKAN had to say, and con sequently attended. Instead of discussing the issues of the con test, the speech was made up of constant ref erence and personal abuse of Judge W ILIIOT. The terms applied to Judge W. were " quack," " mountebank," " lazy lubber," " infamous," " guilty of wilful and deliberate falsehood," and a variety of other choice epithet-a which are supposed to be current amongst fish-women and in the stews of New York. The speaker certainly proved himself an adept in the use of coarse vulgarity and low blackguardism, and his familiarity with vitujieration such as 110 gentleman would descend to. We are aware that such a blackguard places himself below the notice of honorable persons, and we only make allusion to him to say, that in conduct ing the present contest, we hare endeavored to treat our political opponents courteously and fairly, and without descending to anything like personalities. We had hoped that such would be the case on each side. We do not believe that personal attacks upon Judge WiLMOTwill advance Mr. BCCHANAN'S prospects, and we consider that those who have invited Mr. SCHNABFL here, have not only injured their own eaose, but have made themselves liable to re tort—if anything eao justify retaliation. They are responsible for the scurrilous exhibition of bad passion which we have had, and if they deem such attacks upon the standing and cha racter of a citizen in good taste, or beneficial to their cause, they are welcome to all the sat isfacton they can obtain. DEATH BED REPENTANCE. —Posters calling a Democratic meetiug at Coudersport, Potter Co., on the 16th, announced as a rallying cry, M Buchanan, Breckinridge and Free Kansas !" Rather too late to deceive the people, who know the grievous wrougs which have perpe trated to make it Slave Kansas .LET. OUR MECHANICS READ. The question really is. whether it is better for capital | to own its own labor, or to hire it. We differ in regard to this question' You liave determined the question one wa- in Pennsylvania, and we have determined it anotiier in Georgia. Ido not propose to interfere with your social system, nor to controvert your decision. Do as you please. 1 a"k for the south that we shall 1* allowed to do s we please. We have determined it is better fur us that capi tal own its labor. Such is the language of the Hon. IIKRSCHKL V. JOHNSON, of Georgia, at the democratic mass meeting in Philadelphia last week, as re ported in the Pennsylvanion. Southern spea kers claim that it is best " that capital shall <n*n Us men labor," while we at the north con teud that capital should hire it at remunera tive wages. Mechanics I npon what side of this question do you iutemd to range yourselves"' Is it your policy to strengthen that class of politicians, who believe that it is right to own labor ? If this is the real question as claimed by Mr. JOHNSON, will you uot rise in your might, and say that if such are the views of southern men, you must seek to restrict them to the states where they are now entertained ? It must be recollected that this doctrine is openly promulgated at a large democratic meet ing, and that it was reported in the immediate orgnn of Mr. BUCHANAN. It therefore becomes a new principle of the sham-democracy, to be ultimately adopted into its platform. It is high time that our laborers and mechanics should understand this matter, and if they wish to sustain free labor they must vote for the republican nominee. The opinion of Mr. JOHNSON is carried out by the extracts from the southern press to which we add the following from the Muscogee Herald, an Alabama Bu chanan journal : " Free Society ire sirl.ru of the name. li'hat is it but a conglomeration of GREASY MECHANICS, filthy operatives. small fisted farmer*, and moon-struck theo rists ? All the northern, and especially the New England states, ARE DEVOID OF SOCIETY FITTED FOR WELL BRED GENTLEMEN, the prevailing das* one meet* with is that of mtehunic* struiwlin g to be genteel and small farmers irhn do thrir oirn drue/gery ; and yet who are hardlv FIT FOR ASSOCIATION WfTA A SOU THERN GENTLEMAN'S BODY SERVANT. This is your free society which the northern horde* are endeavor ing to extend into Kansas." Look to your Ticket. We again urge upon our Republican friends the importance of attending to the WHOLE TICKET. See that voters are supplied with n full set of votes. Don't jiermit any trading or bartering. It is as important for the suc cess of our principles that the candidate for the lowest office should succeed, as the highest. Republicans ! you have organized for the advancement of principle. In furthering that object you have presented a Ticket. Eu-ry memlier npon it, is entitled to your support.— Don't swerve a hair's breadth, but consider the ends you would accomplish, and the means necessary for their advancement. GET OUT THE VOTERS! Wc urge upon our friends in the strong Re publican towns, the importance of having ar rangements made to get out every voteT. Have your teams in readiness, and bring eTcry vo ter in the township to the polls, Yonr oppo nents will not lose an avnilable vote. They will be furnished with funds from the custom houses and |>ost offices, to get out their votes and the Freemen of the county must counter balance their money and efforts by personal exertions. TOLD YOUR TICKETS ! Much valuable time might be saved and many more votes secured by having the tiidcets on the ground before the polls are open, ready cut and folded, and tied in sets—eleven voles in each set. See that each voter who desires it, has a full set, and votes it too. PRO-SLAVERY COALITION.— The rumors of a coalition between the Democratic and Ameri can parties grow stronger every day. The New-York Mirror says " We learn from sources that we can hardly doubt, that the leaders of the Buchanan and Fillmore parties have coine to an understand ing, and are now at work, night and day, con summating the coalition to defeat Fremont." The Buffalo Commercial Advertiser, Mr. Fillmore's home organ, in the course of an edi torial article observes : " The moment it is ascertained that Mr. Bu chanan cannot carry his own State—that Penn sylvania ia lost to the Cincinnati nominee—his case will appear hopeless, and some new policy will be adopted. Nay, this is admitted by some of the Democratic leaders themselves." The contingency here referred to is the vic tory of the Republicans in Pennsylvania at the October election, and by the phrase " new policy" is simply meant the withdrawal of Mr. Buchanan, practically, or the concentration of his strength on an amalgamation ticket. Prof. C. R. Cout'RN has left with us twenty-one potatoes, weighing twenty-one lbs., raised by himself, of the pinkeye, Nova scotia, and other varieties. They are the finest spe cimens of potatoes we have seen this season. They owe their large size and excellent quali ties to the application of the compost, we pub lished last spring, given ns by Mr. COBT RN, who has for years bad the best of evidence of its value. Sens A BEE, in his speech at this place, said that. " no respectable man would vote for Mr. GROW." What say you, Freemen of Brad ford, to the opinion of this despicable slanderer. Are there no respectable men nmougst the six thousand voters who will deposit their ballots for GAI.ISHA A. GROW, on Tuesday next ? Re collect that this West Branch blackguard says that if you vote for Mr. GROW, yoo are with out tbe pale of respectability ! Hon. 11. HARLIX of Maine and Hon, I>. W IF.MOT will speak at the Court House, on Mouday evening Oct. 13. Nkoko SI'KKBAOt. —in the Legiatature <>T 1 855, A mem ber n lined Smith, fioin Allegheny, uttered a resolution the tint day of the scsioii Lento wing upou negroes tie right to vote—and BARTHOLOMEW LAL'OUTK. the fusion candidate for Surveyor (Jeiieral. voted in the attii mative. Add this vote to his votes on the .'ug Law. and latporle is a pretty specimen of humanity to ask MUITK *KX to vote for hitn. We cut the above licnutifill paragraph from the Kaslon Argu.s j the editor of which is very evidently in the same desjn'ratel aud despair ing condition of the Buchsuiiersgenerally. The statement that LA PORTE voted for negro suffrage is false, made without the slightest foundation, as the journals of the House for the sessiou of 1865 show. Mr. SMITH, of Allegheny, did not offer any such resolution on the first day of the session ; but on the third day read in his place and presented to the chair, a bin to " confer upon colored persons the rights of citizenship," which went nnder the rules to the Judiciary Committee. On the 24th of Janua ry (see journal H. It. page 100) the Commit tee reported the hill with a negative recom mendation, as the rights it conferred (negro suffrage) wefe clearly unconstitutional. Janua ry 20, the llonse refused to proceed to the consideration of the bill (page 118) ; aud January 27, (page 130) the antlior of the bill having become satisfied of its unconstitution ality, made a motion that its consideration be indefinitely postponed, which was agreed to. This was the end of the mutter. Mr. LAPORTL had no opiortuiiity to vote to extend the right of suffrage to uegroes, because no vote was ta ken upou the hill, and the story is an unmiti gated falsehood, without the shadow of truth. DON'T NEGLECT THE STATE TICKET. It is generally conceded that the result of the election next Tuesday, will have a power ful influence upon the Presidential contest. It is the dwty of every Freeman who desires the defeat of BITHANAN to rally at the polls next Tuesday. A glorions triumph then, for the Union State Ticket, secures a certain victory in November. Don't neglect to go to the Polls on Tues day next, thinking you can vote on the 4th of November to rebuke the political transgres sions of the present Nutiorial Administration. Your vote is needed now to swell the verdict of disapprobation which will close up the Re publican column for the great triumph in No vember. Let Pennsylvania repudiate JAMES PLATFORM on Tuesday next, and the question is settled and the cause of Freedom victorious. Look to it that every voter who wishes to cast his suffrage in condemnation of the pro slavery policy of the democratic party—in re buke of the outrages in Kansas—lias a vote for the State Ticket. The majority on our County ticket, is of little consequence as to its amount—but every vote for the State ticket, is so much added to the grand result. &a?" The Fremontcrs of Montgomery and B icks' counties, had a grand rally on the 2th tilt., at Ilatboro'. The mass, says a correspon dent, was estimated from 10,000 to 15,000 ; the procession of " big teams" was about three miles long, headed by about 200 men on horse bftrk The speakers were Geo. Iycar, J. P. Hale, I). Wilmot, A. Burlingame, and Win Moran, who wore all listened to with great at tention. The meeting adjourned to great Langhom's Hill meeting, in Bucks county, near Bristol, ou Saturday, Oct. 4. The speak ers for this meeting arc Banks, Burlingame, Wilmot., Ford, and Shaffer. It is expected this will be the largest meeting in Eastern Pennsylvania. The friends of Fremont and Freedom are well organized in old Bucks—two or three meetings are held every night in the county. Here the jieople are brought togeth er in school-houses, wagon-lofts, barns, mills, <kc., in different sections of each township, aud the effect is most glorious for Freedom's cause. MYSTERIOUS AFFAIR. —On Wednesday even, ing Ist- inst., EI-HRLVM BOARDMAN of Orwell township, fell from the Bridge at this place, iuto the water, under circumstances which give strong suspicion that he met with foul play.— Mr. B. was seen about 9 o'clock of that even ing, in a state of intoxication, attended by per. sons not previously known to him, ami having in his possession a sum of money. About half-past nine, persons crossing the river in a boat, below the bridge, heard a noise as of some heavy object falling into the water, with a groan, and upon rowing to the spot, found a hat and handkerchief. The boat was present ly hailed by persons upon the bridge, who said that a man had thrown himself over the rail ing. The story told by these persous and their dogging the missing man during the even ing excited suspicions and they were arrested and locked up in jail. Friday morning hy dragging the river, the body was found, and an inquest cmpaunelled by Justice Bon ART, who proceeded to examine the body. The money which deceased was known to have, was missing. The only mark of violence was over one eye, which was con tused, evidently from the effects of a heavy blow. On Saturday, the persous confined in jail —-JAMES MITCHELL, and WILLIAM WHITE, were examined liefore Justice 800 ART, and commit ted to await tlMjir trial at December term. Mr. BOARDMAN was an industrious and wor thy citizen, whose only fault was an occasional excess in drinking. He leaves a wife and sev en children. bstf A large meeting was held at Athens on Friday last, which was addressed by HOR ACE GREELEY, and Hon. G. A. GROW, in very able and effective speeches.

This is disjuV-d |, v the report of the Congressional Investigating Committee, which shows that, in the lutt.~ part of the year 1853, before the repeal of the Missouri compromise, a public meeting vis held in Platte county, Mo., at which Atchh.,,, made a sjieech, and where the following reso lution was passed : Resolved, That if the Territory shall be opened to settlement, we pledge ourselves to each other to extend the institutions of .\J tss , , m over the. Territory, at whatever sacrifice of blood or treasure. The proceedings of this meeting were put,- lished in the Platte Argus, one of the organs of the Atchison party. Before the InvestiW i ting Committee, a man named Davis, a Mi - | sourian, testified that he was a member of th e ; famous " Blue Lodge " in Missouri, in Febru ■ ary, 1854, before the Kansas bill passed, the avowed object of the order being to make Kit. • | sas a slave State. At the eouelusiou of SCIINABEL'S J; A .
