LOCAL POLITICS
Meeting in Sixth Ward.
_., , .
One of the largest ward meetings we have
attended during the campaign was held at
the corner of McGee street and Pennsylva
nia avenue, in the Sixth ward, last even
ing. The Sixth Ward Tanner Club and
the Seventh and Eighth Grant and Colfax
Club, fully equipped, with torches, etc.,
each beaded by a band of music, were in
attendance. -The street in front of the
speakers' stand, which was tastefully deco
rated with flags and Chinese lanterns, was
a deme mass of people for a full square.
The meeting was called to order by Mr.
John B. Wilson, who proposed the follow
ing officers:
President—JnO. A. Sergeant.
Vice Preside:VS—W.. N. Wagstaff, 'C.. C.
Kuhn, Ed. Presser, J. B. Bennett, ,W. N.
Ever;•on, Louis Kern, Bartley'PreStOn.
Secrefaries—John N. Everson, N. G.
Kunkle, W. J. ;Flinn and reporters of the
pre,B.
The officers were unanimously elected,
after which the audience was favored with
some excellent music by Julius Moore's
`brass band, at the conclusion of which the
Chairman intrdduced to the meeeing
GEN. J. BOWMAN SWEITZER.
General Swei zer said ho had come to ad
dress a ward meeting and was delighted to
see as large a crowd as if it was a ten:men
tion. He was pleased to see that they took
so much interest in the present contest,
which is one of incalculable importance,
one which is to deeide for years the weal
or Woe of our country. There is but one
issue in the preseat campaign,
and it is,
shall we_have peace or shall we have war.
Democrats have . thrown in a plank- about
greenbacks, but it Is not a ore in the
ocean, not of the slightest impotence in
comparison with tlre great issue. 'he Gen
eral had not been an abolitionist , I ad a's an •
officer of the lew supported and enforced
in by gone times a law, which was teptig
rant to him, because it was a law, and the
reconstruction laws had been once as dis
agreeable to hiM, but they were laws and
every loyal mail must support them. \ •
The Southene
present conditl.n of the uth.
They had, at one time after the war, an op
portunity to accept the XlVth amendment
and come in with all the rest of the States
together, but they refused. They inaug
urated the one-than power, and seek to get
back Nall their old power, and morn too
in Congress, and to rule the black and white
races as before. We oppose Seymour to
prevent this great calamity. Who heve com
bined to effect this and raise Seymour, or
whoever their candidate might be, to be
dictator, law-maker and Executive in one?
The soldiers present know. They went out
to fight against traitors for the preservation
of the country and the flag. and their old
enemies have united with the peace Demo
crats to effect their original object. .
General Sweitzer believed at one time
that McClellan was a great man, but he be
lieved that Grant is a greater lie had stuck
to his old friends of the Democr\itie party
as long a. 9 he could, but could do so n i
4on g er, for here when we have another cr...
cis instead of nominating McClellan, or
Ilanc. ck, or Farragut, they i ave .-hesen a
Peace Democrat and goth\n up a greenback
dodge, refused to endorse t -;e Soldiers, aml
nominated a man who did not believe it
was rig It to fight for the fig 2:, and had said
that the Confederate rebel constitution w is
better than Our own and we could not do
better than adopt it. - Gen Sweitziir spoke
strongly for some time on the rec: nstrws
than questi. n and finished with an eloquent
euology winch he styled a hale talk about
General Grant.
J. ICi: KIRKPATRIcK, ESQ.
At\ the conclusion of Gen. Sweitzer's re
marks the band played "The Star Spangled
Banner," after which J. M. ' Kirkpatrick
was introduced and addressed the meeting
in his usual happy style. ,
He believed, as Frank Blair ha'+
that there was but one issue in this ca
and that was the reconstruction mea!ii
Congress. The queStion was, "Wl
loyalty should govern what loyal(
preserved, or should the Goverzird
turned over to those who had foul y ,
its destruction. Ile said be . did no
to make an argument. His cause I
no - argument to sustain it; he woul '
on the offensive rather than the defep
He then turned his attention to local
Mrs and said he did not like to desec
low as to talk about Burt 4nd Fostei
supposed it Wa's necessary. Who
"started out to hunt deer he did not I
shoot at skunk." He then appealed t .
workingmen present to know if they r
support such men, and asked what c l
they had upon the laboring classes
closed his remarks with an eloquent
ration, urging upon r the Republican:
necessity of vigilance.
D. 11. LYMAN, ESQ
D. 11. Lyman, Esq., of the ()AzErn: was
then introduced, and' in a brief address
presented the 'issues in the present con
test. He believed in Democracy, when
construed in its proper sense; but he was
by no means a modern Democrat. In the
early days of Democracy, it was held to be
in opposition to aristocracy, but now De
mocracy was nothing nor than less than
aristocracy. The speak-r briefly referred
to the reconstruction policy of Congress,
and said that although the Democrats had
inserted a slippery financial plank in the
platform, that the reconstruction of the
rebel States was the terminus. He held
that but for the treason of Andrew John
son, which inspired the Southern Demo
crats with a hope of regaining the "Lost
Cause," the country would have long ere
this have been restored to polled and qui
etness and would have been enjOying a
degree oLprosperity far greater than it had
ever yet attained.
At the conclusion "of Mr. Lyman's re
marks the meeting adjourned with three
times three for Grant and Colfax.

The system of small profits and large'
sales pursued at the ireat first-class hat,
cap and ladies fur house of William Flem
ing, No. 139 Wood street, has proven highly
successful in building up a very large trade,
which is constantly on the increase. The
ladies' fur business has become a very im
portantl branch of the trade of the city, and
to its development no house in the city has
contributed so much. Fleming now sells
more furs for ladies wear, embracing all
varieties, styles and qualities, than-alI other
Pittsburgh establishments combined. The
wonder fully low prices at which ladies' furs
have been sold, has, no doubt, been the
means of securing the large patronage which
this extensive and popular establishment
now enjoys.
Readers will bear in mind that at Flem
ing's they will find dtareer and better stock
of fine grade of furs than elsewhere West
of the mountains, and that they can pur
chase from 15 to 25 per cent, less at this;
1 1 ,,use than at any e,otemporary establish
ment. Thus patrons are afforded not only
the best selection, but likewise the g'eatest
bargains. Those who contemplate pur
chasiig anything in this line should call at
Fleming's headquarters for such goods, ex
amine stock and compare prices and judge
for themselves. Purchasers should not de
lay, as it is a well-known fact that as the
season advances and the stocks run down,
prices materially advance: Don't forget
the place, 139 Wood street.
"To All Seeking Homes."
We have frequently called the attention
of our readers to a valuable work issued by
the reliable Real Estate Agents, Croft
Phillips, entitled the ‘‘PITTSI3IiRGH REAL
ESTATE REGISTER." The very large
amount of property that is offered for sale
by this firm renders it comparatively easy
for them to suit even the most fastidious in
a borne. The amount represented in the
"REGISTER" alone is over half a million
dollars, consistii g of Farms, Mills. Stores,
Hotels, Tanneries, Southern and Westen
Lands, Coal and Mineral Lands, city add',
subui ban sites, with full descriptions, le4-. 1
tions, prices and terms of sale. The dels
criptions given of the different properties
in the "REGISTER" were 'written (with but
lexv exceptions) after a careful examina
tion
of the same by one or the other of the
members of the firm. Therefore, persons /
visiting properties 7 hat they over for sale /
will not be disappointed in the descriptions
given. The very exiensivo circulation that
the "REGISTER" now enjoys is due to the
energy and ability of its publishers in mak
ing \ it a valuable work of reference for
gratations destribution.

TEE" can ob sin one by calling_ at their
office, No. 139 F. urth avenue, or it will he
