Jean Scott and Hon. Galustia A. 'Grow.
Notwithstanding the inclement weather
a large number of persons assembled at
the Republicad Mass Meeting at City
Hall, last evening, and among the as
sembled multitude were many ladles,
who occupied seats to the right of - the.
speakers stand, reamed for theni by the
_
Committee of Arrangement. An excel
lent brass band was in attendance and
enlivened the occasion with sweet music
before the meeting organized and during

At eight o'clock the meeting was called

of the Committee on 'Meetings and
Speakers, on - whose motion the following
officers were elected: .

General Negley, on taking the , chair,
thanked the meeting for the honor con
ferred on him; after which he introduced
Hon. John . Soott, in a few coMplimentary
remarks.
REMARES SCOTT.
Mr; Scott, after a few introductory re
marks, said that the only question now
beforq the people of this State was
whether they were willing to go back to
the Democratic dogmas of receiving re
bellious States' rights and slavery.
These had been the issues for the past
eight years, and the people had on every
occasion rejected them, find before their
successive verdicts in favor of th
roerinci
ples of the Republican party, e re
versed, some good reasons should be
given.
The speaker then took up the Demo.'
cratic platform, and discussed it to set) if
there were, any reasons given why a
change shduld be made in the adminis
tration of the State goVernment. The
purth resolution, he said, held that re
form was necessarya It was an easy mat-
Iter, he said, for the, party out of power
cry out for reform for the purpose of
'getting into power, but when they were
asked to specify wherein the reform was
necessary, the task was not so easy.
Mr. Scott then proceeded to show that
the financial affairs of the Common
wealth had never been so admirably
managed under a Democratic admlnis
trationt Notwithstanding the fact that'
a large number of the working popula
tion had - been required to protect the
government during the rebellion and a
heavy war debt had been contracted and
paid, the State , debt had been reduced
under Republican rule at the rate of two
millions a year, and in audition the tax
on real estate had been repealed. He
said the way to have refornl was to elect
honest men. and he thought there wore
as many honest men to be found in the c
Republican party as in the Democrati
party.
The question of protection was then
ably discussed.
The remaining resolutions were passed
over hurriedly, after which, the Speaker
returned to the first three resolutions in
the platform, which have a national bear
ing. He said that they embodied the
old Democratic doctrines of secession,
nullification apd anarchy. These resolu
tions, he said, held the doctrine that no
amendment to the National Constitution
was binding upon a State that did not
give its consent to it. notwithstanding
the Constitution itself. provided that if
threedourths,of the States ratified an
amendment, properly Submitted it was
binding in all the States.
The speaker referred to the opposing
candidates for Governor and Supreme
Judge. Admitting. be said, all that was
claimed for Mr. Packer, that be was
ealthy and honest, it did not give him
any claims over Governor Geary who,
although, not rich. was as honest as Mr.
Packer, and If Lehigh University stood
as a monument -to Packer, Lookout
Mountain stood mum higher, and would
stand longer, a,monument to John W.
Geary. Admitting Mr. Pershing to be
one of the best lawyers in Cambr l ia
county was no reason why be should
bupercede Judge Williams, whose; legal
ability was well known and whose hon
esty, integrity and loyalty had never
been questioned.
Hob. Galusha A. Grow wakthen intro
duced and made a brief but eloquentwith
address, which -was listened to
marked attention and deep interest by
the large audience.
Thomas Howard, Esq., candidate for
State Senate, was then loudly called for
by the audience, and reponded in a brief
aadress after which the meeting ad
iourned.

A singular ...af f air occurred _in the
Twelfth ward yesterday evening, about
five o'clock, resulting in the almost in
stant death of ilohnie Lodge, a, little boy
six years of age, sonof John Loose, boot
and shoe dealer, at . No. 620 Penn street..
The little fellow was in the front room
over hiS father's store, with two or three
other members of the family, was
looking out of. a window, when - hesud
denly fell back into the room. His
mother' seeing him fall ran and ,picked
him up, :when. she _ discs:veered that
blood was issuing from a wound ,
in bid , otter* below the ,left' eye.

summoned, but was unable to render
any ewsistanoe, and the boy expired in
about 1168012 minutes after the wound
was received. No person in the neigh
borhood, so far as we could learn, heard
tho report of a gun or pis tol, which
would indicate ` the sho was fired
some distance away. A report was cur
rent that a shot had been fired from
street car No. 20, 'on the Ciiitebs'

ed better than ever to serve his custo
mers, old and new. Mr. Beilstein's bus
iness has grown up within a few years to
its present magnitude, and his to m cu
is made up largely of our
families in both cities, owing mainly
to two important characteristi, which
he constantly exemplifies, viz: cs he will
buy or slaughter none but select ani
mals free from oisease, and carefully
fatted; by this he deserves patronage, and
to s cur e what he so well deserves, both
he and his assistants wait promptly and
politely on all corners. We might add
that Mr. Beilstein thinks it worth while
through the press to let the community
know, from time to time, where and from
Whom they may depend on finding at all
times the very beat qualities or the va
rious meats. That his customers may
have confidence in the truth of these
facts, it 'le only necessary
to say that Mr.
„Beilsetin never slaughters animals just
taiten 'rpm the stock cars, nor such as
have j i i;at finished a journey, but only
such he has owned and kept long
enough to be sure that their flesh is
neither diseased nor heated by travel.
House keepers will appreciate the great
importance of his circumspection in
these important particulars, and may
therefore depend on the very choicest
of wholesome meats by dealing with
Mr. Beilstein, at his stand, whether in
the Pittsburgh or Allegheny market.
Bennet's New Billiard Ball.
Kunz's stone front building, No. 68'
Smithfield street, has long been regarded
as one of the arcnitectural ornaments of
the city, being a beautiful and elegant
edifices both regarding the exterior and
interior. IL bag recently changed hands,
Mr. John S. Kennedy, the former lessee,
removing elsewhere, and Mr. George H.
Bennett 'taking possession on a lease for
a term of years. The new proprietor, a
gentleman of capital and taste, has thor
oughly refitted and refurnished the
building and re-opened it as a fashiona
ble, first class billiard saloon. Five new
and elegant tables, combining all the
modern patents and advantages, have
been placed in the palatial hall on the
second floor, and nowhere else in' the
city will the lovers of the noble game of
ball and cue find better or more pleasant
accommodations. The saloon, which is
entirely separate from the billiard hall,
is a perfect model of beauty and taste,
and is always supplied with the finest
and choicest of , foreign and domestic
ivines, liquors and cigars, while oysters
and refreshments will be served up in
he best styles at the shortest notice. We
an,commend Mr. Bennett, the proprie
r, as a gentleman eminently worthy a
ull share of patronage, being genial,
ourteons and obliging, and we are sure
is palace billiard saloon will receive a
arge share of custom from those who
an appreciate the superior advantages.
The Secret of Success.
- -- - -
The great secret of success in any
branch of trade consists in being always
up to the times, and ever ready to antic.
ipate and supply the wants of the people.
To this fact Col. J. D. Egan owes the
success and, popularity which has
attended his book and news - depot on
Sixth avenue, below Smithfield street.
By careful attention to business he has
been enabled to be always ahead,. and
thus the patronage of the establishment
has been gradually extending, and is now
very large and remunerative. At
present he has on hand a ' choice and
attractive selection of volumes, treating
on almost every conceivable subjbet in
science, literature or art, among whiCh
e some rare and valuable beets which
cannot be procured at any other ester,.
lishment in the city. In the department
f magazines, periodicals and newspa.
rs the
store,
will also be found fully
applied with the very latest issues. Not
!
n unattractive feature of the Colonel's
ouse is the prices, which are a marvel
o those who have been accoustomed to
ay exorbitant rates for inferior articles
y other unprincipled dealers. Our
readers should call on the Colonel and
be satisfied personally.
Ladles do appreciate the fact that furs
can be bought now at less prices than if
delayed later in the season and conse
quently we don't marvel that they are
flocking in such large numbers to the
great representative first class Ladles'
Fur House of Wm. Fleming tic Co., No.
139 Wood street, when all articles in the
line from the humble to the richest
and most costly grades can be purchased
at from 15 to 25 per cent. below regular
prices. This favorite house has already
Mink qu es antiti of all the new styles
ofiand Sable collars and cuffs, capes
and muffs, together with fashionable As
teem cloaks, collars and muffs. Of one
thing purchasers are assured, that the
goods found at Wm. Fleming it Co.'s are
all of extra quality, style and finish, and
as every article is warranted and no de
ception practiced or false representations
made in order to'secure a sale. we can
consequently advise our readers in want
of anything in the line of ladles' and
misses'. furs to visit this popular and
fashionable emporium without delay.
By so doing, they will positively save
money in getting the widest selection in
the best goods at the lo;arest prices.
