Congressional and Sena-
torinl Conferences mtt at Stroudsburg, at
the house of Jacob Knccbt, on last Mon
day, aud nominntcd Dr. David K. Shoc
maker, of Carboo, for Coogrcsf, and John
Shoue, of Pike, for Senator.
Dr. Shoemaker was the Independent
Democratic candidate, for Gongress, in
1653. azainst William H. Dimmick, of
" Wayue, and made a very bia run consid
ering the lateness of the dav he came out
He is a man of intelligence and educa
tion, and in the event of his election will
make a very efficient aud respectable Con
gressman We hope those opponed to the
candidate of the Breckinridge Democra
oy, will rally immediately to hta support
an 1 gie him as heavy a vote as possible,
and scb a one, too, 8S will ensure his elec
tion. Carbon county will roll up a rout
ing ma-jority for her favorite, and Wayne
nill do a uiec thing for him. Let all
then, without respect to partj, who wish
to rebuke the Breckinridge Ad sinistra-
tion Democracy, unite on the People V
caudidate for Congress, and his electiou
will be secured.
The Breckinridge Democracy havo put
in nomination Philip Johnson, of Eaton,
who is noted for his adherence to the Ad
ministration of Mr. Buchanan, and for
his low pot house pursuits. His uomin-
" ation greatly di-pieases the Democratic
party at home and abroad.
Dr. Shoemaker is strongly in favor of
Protection to American Labor, w bile
Johnson is the loader of the Free Trade
-' party. Those in favor of Protection to
American labor bould rally a.odiviiiedly
to 'bis support, and thus secure a Repre
sentative who will vote for their interest.
John Sbou-e, of Pike, who is nomin
ated for the State Senate, is extensively
engaged in tbc lumber trade; be is a matt
tof education, and st an early day studied
law; be has first rate business talent",
and would make just the kind of a Sen
"ator the District might well be proud of
Hie no mi natron gives entire satisfaction
to those opposed to the man who lead the
Know Nothings in 1S54 ; and by proper
efforts may be the next Senator.
Mr Sbouse will carry Wayne and Car-
. ton, and get a heavy vote in Pike and
Monroe, and by a judicious cnass ran
run down his competitor, who was the
popular nominee of the Know Nothings
a few years ago. It will be remembered
also,, that a few years ago, when the Pub
lic Works of this State were Hold, Mr.
Mott made every effort to defeat the sale.
It is now the proper time for those who
did not approve of brs action then, to
make it manifest in an effectual manner.

The Democratic Meeting.
ggLat Monday came in a very beau
tiful day, and consequently early in the
morning, all thought that tho Domooratio
meeting, announced to come off in the af
terpart of the day, would be largely at
tended. But alas, the sanguine hopes of
Dflmnnrntic friends were doomed to
disappointment. The usual oourt crowa
came with but a slight additional force.
The Democracy made every effort to get
up a grand demonstration, but signally
failed. There were but from 12 hundred
to 18 hundred present. When Mr. Fos
ter came in town, in charge of tho Cora
mittcc of reception, which was provided
with a band of music and every thiug cal
culated to attract a crowd, the processsion,
nhicb the officers endeavored to swell,
but which, by acutal count, exclusive of
the Baud, numbered just Go.
A Knnt 'A a olock tho mectinc was or-
WW w . CJ
i-anized by the election of the usual num
her of officer.-: and a committee appointed
to invite Mi. Foster to addrc-s the crowd,
which soon produced Mr. Fo-ter, who,
after a few introductory rematks by S. S
Drchcr, Esq., was presented to the audi-
hum. which crave a tew feeble cheers.
Mr Foster proceeded to serve up the Ne
uro in very imaginable manner. He sta
ted that the Republicans were not willing
that the slave holder should take bis prop
nrtv into frco Territoriea. But held that
they in this were wrong, and argued that
tho Democratic doctrine" was the only
true doctrine with regard to slavery in
the Territories, which is that the slave
holder has the same richt to carry his
slaves into tho Territories, as tho non
slave holder has to carry his horses and
other common property there.
He then mado a vain ellort to prove
that tho Republican party was a section
al party, aud asserted that thero wcrt
15 elave states unrepresented in the Chi-
V . t ft
caco Uonvcution. ana tnat we nan no
electoral ticket in any of tho Southern
States, and did not expect to get a South
eru vote. We do not know whether
Mr. Foster knew better or not, but we
do know that his statement is grossly
false. For the followiug Slavo States were
represented in our lato National Cooven
tion, namely : Maryland, Delaware, Vir
ginia, 'Kentucky, Missouri, and all these
states have electoral tickets in the field,
with a favorable prospect, at least, of get
tini? a verv respectable vote and besides
C3 I
this, we had more Southern Delegates in
the Convention that nominated MY. Lin
coln, than tho Convention had that nom
inated Mr. Doujila?: and tho Convention
that nominated Mr. Breckenridgo had
fewer delegates from tho Northern States
than there were Southern delegates in the
Convention that nominntcd Mr. Lincoln,
therefore, according to Mr. Foster's rea
soninc. Uouifias anu jirecKinrrdjie are
moro sectional than Mr. Lincoln. And
they truly arc sectional for they represent
sectional interests alone.
He then entered into a lengthy argu
tnent to snow tnat no is, or rattier oocc
wa, as good a tariff man as Mr. Curtin
is. To prove this he spoke of bis congres
sional record, made about 17 years ago
Ho stated that he voted to sustain the ta
riff 'of 1542. and against that of 1846,
while Mr. Hamlin voted to kill that of
1S42 and for that of '40, which was free
trade in its character. Accordiu to this.
Mr. Hamlin aud Mr. Foster both being
at that time Democrat?, it would logical
ly fellow that Mr. Hamlin had "been con
sistent with tho Democratic doctrine
while bo was a Democrat, while Forter
had been inconsistent ; because tho Dem-
oeratio dootrine at that time a3 well as
thi-, was in favor of Prosrcssivc Free
Trade. But Mr. Hamlin, in 1846 be-
came convinced that the so called Democ
racy was uot the Democracy of the fore
fathers of this Republic; and he, honest
in uis oeiiel. renounced the Dartv and
placed himself in the Republican ranks.
But Mr. Foster, notwithstanding ho is
convinced that the Free Trade doctrine
of the Democracy is entirely wrong, he
nevertheless has not enough moral cour
age & consistency to sevor bis connection
with a party that o grossly, even accor
ding to his own argument, mi-Tflprosents
the interests of the people and couutry.
lie next endeavored to prove that the
Republican party i inconsistent with Pro
tection, because they put in nomination
in 1357 for Governor, Mr. Wilmot, who
when ho was a Democrat was consistent
with tho Democratic faitb, and waa con
sequently a Free Trader. But Mr. Wil
mot renounced bis Free Trade dootrine
while in nomination for Governor, and
now he and Mr. Hamlin stand squarely
ou the Republican doctrine of Protection
to American Labor
Mr. Foster was very carcfui not to btate
the notorious fact that tho Protective
tariff of 1942 was knocked in the head by
the Democratic party, which had pledged
itnCii io x roiecuoa in ic-ti, .put as soon
as it got in power turned directly around
and did just what it had pledged itself
not to do. George M. Dallas, who was
elected V ice President of tho United
States by the aid of tariff votes, bo
cause he had pledged himself to Protcc
tion, gave the deciding voto which do
stroyed Protection. The Democracy now,
as in 1844, feel the need of tariff voto?
.and for this reason wo find them now, as
then, loudly proclaiming in favor of Pro
tection. But wo will sec whether the
people will be deceived twice by the same
means; if tuey should, then certainly
they will deserve to bo.
The Republican party, as a party, but
lately becumc convinced of the necessity
of affording Protection to American La
bor, i o order to the prosperity of tho coun
try as well as the people, and therefore,
at their late National Convention beld at
Chicago, they unanimously Resolved to
hereafter favor Protection to Amerioao
Labor. This is the first declaration that
the Republican party, as a party, ever
made in favor of Protection.
The Bepublioan party is composed of
Democrats and Old Line Whigs, and it
ia therefore extreme folly in Mr. Foster;
or. any one.clscn to bring up tbojr.jp.a8t,
Democratic Whig reoord, as it may be,
as evidence of inconsistency, because
while they were Democrats, they acted as
Democrats, and when they were v nigs,
did as Wbics did. Mr. Foster's .argu-
ment on this subject was about tnis . j
man 30 years of age was oneo a baby,
therefore he is a bahy still. Saul of Tar
sus at one period of bis life was a disbe
liever in Christ and bitterly persecuiau
the Christians; but was afterwards con
verted and became a zealous advocate of
tho Christian faitb. But, according to
Mr. Foster's reasoning, because he was
once a hater of Christ and a persecutor
of the Christians, ho therefore always was
His argument was that because Wilmot,
Hamlin and other Republicans were once
Democrats and consequently Freo Tra
ders, that they still -are Democrats and
Free Traders, notwithstanding they are
Republicans and in favor of Protection.
It certainly will not be disputed that
this was mbstantially his argument, not
withstanding its absurdity. Wo defy
Mr Foster or any ono else, to point to the
slightest inconsistency on the part of the
Republicans in reference to the Tariff,
since thev declared themselves in Nation
al Convention in favor of Protection to
American Labor. Before they declared
in National Convention in favor of Pro
tection. they, as a party, were not pledged
to Protection. They now, however, are
pledged to support that doctrine, and con
stitute tbe only party m iavor oj rroicc
tion to Amerioan Labor in the U. States,
We trust that out side of politic- Mr
Foster is a gentleman and pood citizen,
but at most be is but a third or tourtn
rate stump speakers
He in no respeot is tho equal of Mr.
Curtin. His hesitancy and stammering,
bis confusion and disconnection of ideas,
and his horrible grammar, excited in us no
other feeling than that of pity for bim,
and surnrise that the Democratic State
Committee should be so unwise as to send
him on a stumping tour, aud especially
in thoso placeH wherciu Mr. Curtin had
delivered addresses in bis surpassing
style. Beside this, his knowledge of tbe
politics of the country is limited, and he
therefore frequently renders himself rid
iculous. After Mr. Foster concluded his address,
which was about an hoar and a quarter
long, Richard Brodhead was introduced,
who tried to deliver himself of a quaoti
ty of imaginary pent up wit, eloquence
and logic. But, as uual, it failed to flow.
He succeeded, however, in getting ou bi?
usual qauntity of low pot house slang.
This polished character, when speaking of
the Republicans, called them ,,L5taoK8
Thnn. a man from Bethlehem bv the
name of Sam Wetheral was introduced,
who commenced a grand tirade agiiust
the Republicaas, composed of equal parts
of falsehood, slang and nonscuse.
In tbe evening Messrs. Myers, Crane
and others addressed the meeting. The
burden of their tirades of abu?e aud false
hood, was that tho Republicans wished
to elevato the Negro to a level with the
Whites, and such false rediculous stuff;
and that in order to accomplish this, we
wcro willing to interfere with slavery
where it exists. Now every one who
knows any thing about tho Republican
doctrine, kuowa this to be as false as false
oan be. Tho speakers, without exception,
seemed to take it for granted that the
audieuce was supremely ignorant, aud
that they knew just enough to believe all
that they told them. But tho feebleness
of the cheers, except tboe that had their
origin in spirits, should have been suffi
cietit to bave taught those Slavery Mis
sionaries, that their doctrine was not ta
king very deep rootv. Nearly tho entire
audience knew the Republican doctrine
to be entirely different: The Republicans
stand upon tbe borders of the Free Ter
ritories and say to tho Democracy, or, in
other words, to thoso who wish to extend
slavery : you can come into the Territo
ries and have precisely the same privile
ges here as we have, but no more. You
shall not bring into the Territories your
slaves, because wc will not disgrace our
selves by laboring by the side of them,
and besides this, wo wish to preserve the
Territories for the homes of freo White
men, Bnd not for the slaveholder and bis
Negroes. We say to the hlaveholder,
that ho can enjoy slavery to bis heart'
content in the Slave States, but he mut
not trouble us with them in the territories.
Then, in short, tho Republicans are op-po.-cd
to tho extension of slavery, while
Democracy favor the doctrine, that the
slaveholder has a perfect right to carry
his slaves into all the frco Territories. '
The speakers on the occasion, reprosecu
ted but a very modest amount of
talent; and on tbo whole, tho meeting
may be set down as rather a failure, and
many Democrats went home entirely dis
satisfied with the result, fully determined
to oast their voles for CoK A. G. Curtin
for Governor of Pennsylvania, and for
Lincoln for Preeideut of the U. States.
Democracy, Douglas, Foster and the Tariff.
Republicans, and ail others iu favor of
a Tariff for Protection to American La
bor, bo on your guard, when you hear the
Democracy, as they term themselves,
loudly bellowing in favor of a Protective
Tariff, which they havo commenced to do
since they have found that the people dc
uiand it, notwithstanding they aro a Free
Trade party, and read to these deceptive
characters, the Frco Trade Resolution,
re-adopted by both tbo lato National Dem
ocratic Convention, held at Baltimore,
which reads as follows :
Resolved, that there are questions con
nected with the foreign polioy of this
country which aro inferior to no domes

come for the people of tho United States
to deolare themselves in favor of free seas
and progressive Free Trade throughout tho
world, and by solemn manifestations to
place thejr moral influence at the side of
their,Buccessful example."

of this so-called Democracy, ridiculed

and all this without a word of rebuke
from tbe whole 54 delegates from . this
State. Thus was tho idea of Proteotiou

figyTbe Republican meeting held in
tho Club Room on last Monday evening,
was addressed by Samuel E. Dimmick
Esq , of Honesdalo. Mr. Dimmick is a
forcible and eloquent ppeakor, andwas
listened to the end of his address with
marked attontion, ony interrupted by
outbursts o applarjsQ.,,, ,
.. . - r . i
ItjpThe following conversation be-
w.cen.one of the Demooratio speakers at
ho lato Demooratio meoting, and- friend
of his who was aho a Democrat, -was o-
"T hava hncn in the habit of
VUruoniu - -
attending Domooratio Mass Meetings in
Monroe for years back, but I never at
tended one so email as this. I think thero
must bo something wrong.'
To this no reply was heard. But tbe
othor remarked that "the Democratic par-
v was a .Free Trade party," and asked
wbv it was that ho and tbe otner vow
- . ., TV
cratio speakers had gono in for a Tariff,
and had "denounced tho Republicans as
Free Traders, who were really tbc only
protective Tariff party." " 0," replied
the Democratic spoakcr, "that is lor ci-
fect; the people of thia County aro in fa
vor of a Tariff.
So 'it seems that these Democratic ppca
kers consider tho Dutch" and all otbers
above the Blue Mountain, so ignorant of
the politics of tho country, that such pup
pys, aa tbeso Democratic speakers showed
themselves to be, oan mako them believe
any thing in order to get their votes.
The October Election will tell them how
well they havo succeeded in bamboozling
the Dutch and others above; the Bluo
Mountain.
The Republican Meeting on Tuesday
Evening:.
Tho meeting held at tbe Court House
on Tuesday evening last, was orgouized
by appointing Dr. S. Walton, President,
Peter Shaw, John J. Price, Leonard Bar
tron, Charles Postens, Vice Presidents
and Jackson Lantz, Secretary.
The President introduced Ex. Govern
or Reeder to the audience, who proceed
ed in ono of the most clear, logical, con
vincing and conclusive arguments in favor
of and in vindication of the Republican
doctrine, lhat it was ever our privilege to
listen to. He stated aud proved by facts
iucontrovertable, that the Republican
party; represented the pure, uudefiled. Jcf-
fersonitin Democratic principles, and in
deed of the whole Democratic party down
to about 1S48, when they repudiated the
Jeffersouian Democracy of the founder.
of the Republic, and adopted io its place
Calhouutsm. which i, that the Constitu
tion of the United States carries slavery
into all the territories and there protecte
it.
He stated the Ropublican doctrine to
be, simply the right or power of Congress
to present the eatensiuu of tlavery into
Free Territories, while tho Democracy
contend that tho Slaveholder has a per
fect right to carry his slaves into all the
Frco Territories. Shvery was shown to
be a blight and a curse in all places wher
in it has existed, and the question was
whether it should bo extended over the
virgin soil of our Western Territories.
The Democracy say yes ; the Republicans
say no. Gen. Foster's gross statements
in relntion to tho scctionslity of the Re
publican party, woro met and confuted.
He next entered into an argument in fa
vor of a Tariff for protection, am demon
.-trated clearly that protection is impera
tively necessary in order to the-prosper-ity
of the country. He showed that the
R"publican party is the only party, as a
party, in favor of Protection, and those
outside of tho party who pretended to fa
vor Protection are as powerless as the
Babes in the Woods. In the course of
his remarks the Homestead Bill was ad
verted to, and its advantage to the peo
ple, even of this County, were depicted
That it wa- intended to almopt give to
any one who was willing to settle in the
West a home, where he might enrich him
self by his own industry. That even tbi
measure was opposed by the Decocrntic
party, because its tendency was to estab
lish Freedom in tbo Territories. . He
spoke of the desperate efforts of tbe slave
holders, backed up by the Federal Ad
ministration, to force slavery on the peo
ple of K anja9, by a violence "and reckles-
disregard of all the principles and usages
peculiar to Republican Government, that
our history blushes to own wrc resorted
to by the blavcry extending Democraoy.
Iu short, ho demonstrated that tho De
raooratic party had been deserting prin
ciple and measure, afterprincipio and
measure, until it was now nothing but tbo
skill of what once constitutod the Demo
cratic party. He io conolusion exhorted
tho.so Democrats who bad formerly acted
with him, to ivc up their connection witb
the Demooratio party, which is rapidly
tailing to pieces, and unite tbemeelvcs
with the Republican party, on which de
pends the future prosperity and glory of
mo country.
We by no mean?, in this brief and im
pertect abstract, have dono Mr. Reoder
justice; to properly appreciate tbe force
oi mis great speech, it should havo been
board as it fell from his lips. Tho Court
House was filled to overflowing, at an
early hour, aud the utmost enthusiasm
prevailed.
Douglas and Foster on the Tariff.
Ou the first page of to-day's Jefferao
nian will be found the first part of Mr.
Douglas' tariff record, which ho has been
sixteen years making up. It will be seen
that since Mr. Douglas ontcred Congress,
ho has been called upon 20 times to vote
directly and indirectly on tho Tariff ques
tion, and that 16 times ho, voted directly
against Protection and with the Freo Tra
der, and 4 times elodned. TUr nn.ir.l.n
most oertainly, is a very euitablo man,
undor thoso circumstances, to lead the
Freo Trado Democraoy. But ho and
his party of this Stato. havo ronenf!
found out tkit in order that thev inav
get even a rcspectabjo voto, it is impera
tively necessary that they should turn un
just now a Protective tariff party. Ac-
wy.u.ugij mr,. xougus, in uis; lato Har-
nsDurg.peecb, takos, strong, .ground ia
favor of Protection, notwitbstandTng'Iiff"
has been a Free Trader all his life, and
is now the ehosen leader of the Free Trade
party.
We wouta ask our Democratic friends
whether there is not a good deal of tiii
demagogue about this I
Mr. Foster, the candidate of this Fred
Trade party for Governor of thia State,
i .t- t - . '
as como io me conclusion tnat unless fee"
can get the votes of Tariff men, ho will
come far short of an election, and accor
dingly ho is now very busy, preaohing tfaer
the idea that be is as good a Tariff asan
as Mr. Curtin. The Democrats, who but
a few days ago were ridiculing the ides
that a protectiwo tariff had" any thing to
do with the prosperity of tho country, aro
now very buy circulating the tariff re- '
cord of Mr. Foster, made up 16 years ago.
But this amounts to nothing, for Mr. Fos
ter is tbc candidate of the Free Trade
party, and he and Mr Douglas professing
at this time to be Tariff men, is nothing
more nor less, than an attempt on the part
of the Democracy, to play over again
their old trick of 1844, when they pro
fessed to be in favor of Protection just
before tho election, but Immediately after,
went in for Free Trde.
Voters, all we bave to say is, if you ar&
in favor of Protection to American labor,
vote only for Lincoln for Prnsident, and
Curtin for Governor, because they are
tho representatives of the only Protootiv
Tariff party in oxiatcnoo. See the Na
tional Platform.
Walker, the- Filibuster, Defeated and
Captured.
The details of the. proceedings, which
led to the expulsion, of Walker from
Truxillo, and his subscquentcapture, havo
beeu received.
Commauder Salmon, of tbe British war
e.cScl Icarus, appeared at tbo port of
Truxillo, in the beginning of the present
month, and informed Walker that tho
British government held a mortgage on
all duties and port charges received by
the collector of customs at tbe port of
Truxillo; and be demanded of Walker all
moneys received by him from these sour
ces since be took forcible possesion of
the place. As Walker had made" Truzil
lo a free port frm the day of his entrtuoo
therein, and a no collections had been
made, of course he could only reply to
this effect, and that therefore there were
no funds on baud to answer the demand.
Commander Salmon's response to thia
explanation from Walker was that ho
must lay down bis arms and abandon tho
fort. In tho event of his o doing, tho
British flag would protect him and hit
men until they could embark on some
vessel, and leave the coast of Honduras.
In case, however, he refused to lay down
his arms and accept the terms offered, tho
guns of the Icarus would be opened upon
him, and hs would be tekeD by force.
Walker therefore retreated at night with
his force of 70 or SO men, taking with
him as much provision and stores as ho
could carry, leaving bi3 wounded com
rades, eight in number, in the fort. They
were found there and cared for by the
Euglish. Walker subsequently had one?
or two skirmishes with tbe Honduransv
and at length reached Rio Negro- Here
he was iuterocptcd aud compelled to sur
render. A force composed of Hondu
rans and men from the war steamer Ica
rus, under command of Gen. Alvarez,
proceeded up the Rio Negro, in boats be
longing to tbe steamer, to tho place where
Walker's forces were encamped. n
wa3 taken prisoner, and. with his band
of 70 men, transported to Truxillo, and
delivered to the Honduras authorities.
The men were to be released on a prom
ise not to engage again in filibustering,
but Wralker and Col. Kndler were con
demned to be fchot. The men were in a
very destitute condition, many of them
being sick, and doubtless their captivity
by Alvarez was not an unwelcome result
nnder the desperate circumstances in
wbich Walker's rashness had placed
them.
