The crowd in front of the State Street !lonic: was a perfect jam, and the shouts of the people,rmingling with the music of the bands,, hailed the chieftain with. the most tumultons applause as he appeared before them at the front of the hotel.— He was .intoduceil-hy ,Mr. Dutcher, and addressed his' fellow-citizens as follows : ;My friends—,--for I feel 'that you are all my friends—l stand before you, not as, a maker of sTiVeches, not as a politician, but as a soldier. I came among you - to seek quiet- and repose, and from the moment of my arrival I have received nothing bat kindness. Although I_ ap pear before you as a stranget, I am not, lam not -altogether unacquainted with your history. Your gallant soldiers were with me in. every battle from the siege of' Yorktown to the battle of Aniihtani and, here I bear witness to-their devotion to the eause for which we. are fighting.. (Here the , uproar compelled the General to cease fur a few moments.) I also have to speak of the ever faithful, ever'trne ,• the dashing, intrepid Kearney. men who have given their lives for the maintenance of our government. . I have but one word more, my friends, to say :it is to advise you, while your soldiers are fighting-in -the field, to see that the war la prosecuted for its:limper _ objects—thee preservation of ails` Union and the Constitution, and the maintenance of your nationality and your rights, as citizens! • No such entbusiastie demonstration was ever before Witnessed in Trenton—it was worthy of tbe State and the hero whom it Honored; and we doubt not that every one who beard the speech will- treasure •up and set upon the admonition with 'which it closes. • - Thomas Jefferson's Doctrine: Freedom of Religion, Freedoin of the Press, and Freedom of Person under pro tection of the Habeas Oarpui, and Trial-by Jury impartiall}• selected: These ;princi pleS. form the bright constellation - which has gone before us and guided our steps through an age of revolution and reforma tion.

Badly in the Minority as 'we are then, the Democrats of this county, by not. al lowirtg their forces-to be scattered as• in our 't-ister counties of the old distriat, have gained one Congressman to the party, and been . of valuable .service to the State on two "occasions; .and who can tell but we may save ibeparty a Governor next year, and a. President in . 1864, by 'similar fig ures. Trite we all hope our majority in the State hay 'betens of thousands—but there is nir assurance of such a fact. . Why this_contrast in the counties of the old district? Why did-not Snsque henna follow after Bradford and Tioga? Like disaster,overtook them all in 1854 ; yet now, our county sets them a fine ex ample—but one they cannot'follow. The reason 'is -- plain. From 1855, after anti 'slavery fayaticism ht;d t taken possession of the district, Susquehanna has been in creasing her Democratic vote, while in the other counties it has decreased. When. we assunied the publication of this paper, iii - the summer of 18513, onr party vote I stood at 1,500--7 that ..being :the vote in 18.5. Since then, 'our 'progress has been upward, towards our old ascendancy ; • and our Vote on county- ticket averages 2,800 —softie ‘ hundreds greater than our party vote ten years ago, when the district, was Democratic. But in the other countieti,. theirloss has been steady but certain, and their vote is' only something morethan .a third of what it was ten years since. There is iit• one eiplatiation . , of this eontrast ;•a Democratic pope): has been maintained in' this county,,and;not in the others. Abolition bribery; or enmity could' not do , 'in this county,! what it did iv tAto c4ore--41oprisr,' tho Demooratoof Ip arty paper—and hence the contrast w e have shown. Now, when the old district gives over 7,000 majority for the abolition 'ticket, we hold it down to only 1,000 to 1,200, instead of giving 4,000, as did Bradford = or 3,000, our due proportion. If such good .results could be produced by a paper that - has been Verypoorly Sup ported, how much better would be our condition, had every Democrat come ful ly up to his -duty ? We do not refer to thisto *complain ; but must state the fact that hundreds have given us no Enpport whatever; while some who in palmier days enjoyed the harvests of the party, have in later years, as is too often the I case—and perhaps natural, seemed to care littlefor the party, unless some crumbs were to be picked up, and no unremuner ated labor for the party was. required.— . •Ana in the State this -has been consider ed as an abandoned region, In which - all efforts would . be thrown away; and we, have been treated accordirgly—left to the tender mercies of a despotic tyranny, whose„unmerciful persecution knew no bounds but utter extermination. .13nt ” we still lWe;" - and intend to, at least as 'long as Uncle Sam does, let our 'State neighbors slight us as they may. ,tat if a tress can be of such• service, is it not the imperative duty of every indi vidual, however bumble or exalted, to do his share—all he can—to sustain and strengthen' his party paper? How to do this, none need require directions. The twit.[. cannot fail tb point out the WAY. • Let those whi) have aided us - all they could in the past. stand firmly by us now, in vieiv of what has been done • let the ; ;lukewarm renew their zeal ; and those . ' who have done nothing, put their should ers to the wheel, and all will he well. To our friends in the county, and elsewhere,! , !we make these suggestions, and trust'i they may not be in vain. The waves of mad fanaticism are dashing with terrible ' violence against- the- Democratic forces that .fearlessly stand guard around what is left of our Constitutional Gonertimerrt, and-a Wise generalship would direct that .the weak points in the lines should' be strengthened.
