UNION MEETING IN WARREN.—A large j
and patriotic gathering of the citizens of Warren, was ;
held at the residence of ROBERT COOPER, Esq., on Mon
day, June 3d, IH6I. It was previously announced that Mr.
CoorKß intended to raise a flag, at his own expense, and
the people rallied heartily and with one accord, to assist '
|in unfurling the glorious emblem of liberty—the flag of
I our whale country.
1 | The meeting was opened with prayer by the Rev. HEN- \
' KY BARNES. Several young ladies then came forward,
; and with a " long pull, a strong pull, and a pull all to
; gether," raised to the breeze the Stars and Stripes, amid
the enthusiastic cheers and booming guns of tbe usscinbl- {
ed multitude.
'lhe Uev. Mr. ALYORD was then announced, who made
an able and eloquent appeal to his Union-loving fellow- '
| citizens, both North aud South, to preserve the Govern
ment in it* strength. As the God of Battles could never
sustain the arm of the traitor, the rebel and the oppres
. *or.
The choir was then annotnceJ and sung the glorious
old song " Hail Columbia."
The liev. Mr. BARNES, then followed, and in an earnest j
and forcible manner showed the relation existing between
' the North and South. He proved that slavery was wrong
in the abstract, and incompatible with the life and pras- |
peritv of a free government. As the speaker concluded, i
; the choir sung the spirited song " The Flag of our Un- !
j ion.''
' C'apt. ANDREW DEWINO was then called—he responded
in a few pertinent remarks, which were heartily applaud
ed.
CYRCB COOE. Esq., of Orwell, was then called ou ; he
spoke ot the impenaing crisis and showed how it must be
met. Another patriotic song closed the exercises of a
day long to be remembered by the citizens ol Warren.

Btss~ Headache is not of itself a disease, but
only a certain symptom that an unhealthy condition or
, derangement of some organ exists, or that unhealthy hu
mors i i rilate the system which becomes apparent through
nervous sympathy by tiie appearance of headache, which
manifestation is a warning of approaching disturbance or
siekueMS, and perhaps danger, and a signal to the sufferer
; to fortify the system to resist the threatened attack
Therefore headache being a comeomitant ot nearly every
affection, should be relieved without delay, by the use of
Dr. PORTER'S Eclectic Ei h, which will remove the cause
or fortify the system so as to avert the danger of eerwue
results and cause a restoration to health.
