niil, Hint after 1 tie eloquence and wisdom
which hud been rpoken by tho ilhistrioti
men who had precceded him, it would not
bo expected tlmt hH would ilelnin Ilia meet
trig at this late hour of tho night, with nny
my tituciit upon the principles of the demo
emtio party. This oidightened audience
needed no argument fiorn him to tonvinco
them upon llio mrcess of tho democratic
pxrty, and on the policy which its great men
of old hnd indicated, must depend, in the end,
the very exisienco of our liberties, tt was
a beautiful eight, and one which had glad
dened his heart, to see before him more
than four thousand intelligent men, most of
whom lived by the sweat of their brow, who
bad come together to lliiuk and reason . poti
the affairs ol this government and the elec
tiuii of their rulers. In no other country in
Iho world could lliry do this, and if the
principles of government recommended by
the leaders of the federal party had been
adopted at the formation of this government
tho working men even here would still be
considered the mere hewers of wood and
drawers of water. It was Iho democratic
parly of this country that had elevated the
laboier, and made labor respectable, and to
the working men must look to that party for
strength and support. Thore wag no man in
this vast multitude, however poor or misera
ble, however obscure or fiiondless. who,
while rucking his infant to sleep or brood
ing over his own misfortunes, might not
be cheered to further exertion by tho hope
that that infant might yet bo the ruler of thi
vast empire, and would certainly reach a sta
tion equal to any one in the land. We had
to-night a proud instance of the power of
our institutions in elevating merit. Tho lit
tle giant of tho west and a giant he was in
intellect anil hih attainments had started
life as (Tie humbla apprentice of a cabinet
.maker, and had already, belore he was foily
years of nge, filled with distinction every
civil office in the country, but one, and that
one, if he lived, the people would, in Goti's
time, confer upon him. This was a lheme;
the speaker said, upon which ha loveil to
dilute, but the lateness of the hour compelled
hiin tmlesisl. lie had come hero in c.imria
ny with his distinguished friends to see what
tho democrat of New York were doing for the
cause, so that he might encourage his fiiends
at home, lie was glad to learn that tho Em
pire state would be redeemed, and could s:iy
to the men of New York, that the Keystone
would by this time uphold the aid). She
had never wavered when her united democ
racy took the lield; they had taken the Held,
and he was glad to say that now there was
no opposition among democrats to Pierce
and King.
The stale of Pennsylvania had an abiding
interest in the success of democratic princi
ples, and the result of this contest will be
disastrous to them, if the whig party should
bo sustained in its accidental power. Her
people feci and know this, and hence their
determination to will the battle in No
vember. That great state sympathises with
you, gentlemen, for her sons arc, like you,
men of toil men who ha' e, like you, lisen
by the force of labor and industry, and who
desiro their children to succeed in tho enjoy,
ment of the blessings they hbvo enjoyed.
Your state has the advantage of u haibor
rnrivulled in the woild, with the city in
sight of the ocean, and yet so land-locked as
to defy all danger, if assailed with the
world's navy, filled, too, with a people who
for daring and successful enterprise ate
above all men of the past or prtsent time.
In her position, nature has given New
York great advantages. It requiies no
stretch of vision to see that her power is yet
in its infancy. A few years more and this
whole island of eighteen miles will not
bound the palaces of her merchant-citizens.
We of Pennsylvania have no envy for your
greatness. We look on you as our brethren,
and when we speak of your gieat city, your
rich and extensive soil, in its rear, and your
connection with the lakes, and your mighty
commerce and your wonderful enterprise,
we can nl the same time point to the advan
tages of our own slate, which, if they do not
cause her to pass you, will at least compel
the exertion of all your intellect and all your
enterprise to keep tho lead for the next ten
years.
Gentlemen, God, in his Providence, never
created a lenilory of the extent of Pennsyl
vania, with such immense wealth in a state
of nature, ready to be dug up by the labor of
man. Her coal will this year furnish em
ployment for more than a thousand ships,
and give bread to a population greater than
that of your whole city. Her iron beds are
scarcely less abundent than her coal beds;
and the enterprise of her people, by combin
ing the advantage of position, Bided by the
cheapness of capital, the result of the acquisi
tion of California by democratic policy ami
democratic men, will soon enable them to
furnish iron in all its shar es for tho consump
tion of Iho country, regardless of favor from
any quaiter. Whil" the people of New York
expended but $17,000,000 to make iheir
canal :o reach the West, we expended, in
our woiks of the same kind, S 40,000,000
and this is not half the sum which tins been
consumed within her borders, to devulopu
ber resources and make ihem valuable.
She is now like the sleeping lion roused
from hit lethargy, and if the government of
the nation continues under democratic rule,
,'.nd the feclinyf of progress among her peop'e
i ancmiiagect, her population will increase in
u ratio far above thut of any period of the
i islory of this wondaful country. The pen
; 'e of this great state are essentially demo
r atie, and whenever they have failed to
j- ve a democratic majority, they have been
I, .verned by some generous feeling in behalf
ef those whom they believed to be democrat,
:id who has rendered, essential service to
li-.e democratic party. This time there can
t 3 ro mistake upon that subject. The com
;i aider-in chief of the American forces has
i . let pretended lo be a democrat, and if be
' 1 1, lie (Camrron) felt sure that no Pennsyl
. - dan would take biin for one. - There was
: .- semblance of democracy in the influences
.' ,t surrounded General Scott, and the bat
tle would hnve to bo fought between Hoops
of a decided character. Thore was no lying
in ambush, no surprise, no taking the democ
racy at disadvantage; and in a regular stand
up fight, man loman, face lo face, the democ
racy of Pennsylvania had always been vio
toiious Pennsylvania had no selfishness, and was
willing to Irusl the helm lo any good demo
crat, whether ho came from the far south,
tho great west, or from among the vigorous
men of the east. The nomination of Gen
pierce was considered by matiy men in Penn
sylvania n necessary to the harmony of the
democratic parly of the Union, and ull there
rejoiced thai Hie choice of iho convention
had fallen on so pood a man and so pure a
democrat. They look upon his past life, in
every station to which he has been called,
with priilo nnd pleasure. Honored ns he has
been by Jackson and Polk, they aro confi
dent that the liberties of the country will bo
safe in his hands. Pennsylvania will do her
duty to the country by casting her vote for
him. Pennsylvania never faltered except
in company with New York. Could he go
home and ted his Iriends that New Yoik
would now wheel into line and join her in
gaining tho victory 1 (Yes, was heard from
a thousand tongues, by 20,000 majority.)
Ilo concluded by saying lhat he would carry
Iheir nesuranccs home with him, and thus
sliniuluto his friends lo stiil greater exertions
for a larger majority. Victory could never
be doubtful when Pennsylvania and New
iork inarched to batlle, shoulder to shoulder.
determined to win.
After three cheers for Gen. Cameron, and
ns many morn for the great state from whence
he comes, tho mooting adjourned.
THE COINTED.I LIT! II S IttWARD.
On Friday, Dr. Jacob 11. Gillner, of Lime
stone township, Montour county, was con
signed lo Cherry Hill prison, ("the felon's
doom,") where ho is to remain until the ex
piration of the term for which he has been
sentenced. Doctor Giltner had many friends
and received an education fitting him for
another and a higher sphere, one of useful
ness to his fellow men ; but he choso to be
a law breaker, und now, in bitterness of
heart, and by sad experience, is realizing the
great liuth, that "the way of the transgressor
is hard." Doctor Gillner has for years been
concerned in the manufacture of those coun
leifeit bank notes which have flooded the
Commonwealth to its utmost bounds, the
burden of which, in all its ramifications
eventually rested on tho shouldets of thoso
least able to bear it, viz : the poorer classes.
The partners is his iniquity were old Abo
ll-inse, Abe's son, Lewis Hause, his son-in-law,
James lira? j, and brother-in-law, John
Mengas. Abe and his son kept the Limestone
Tavern in Limestone township. Biass kept
the Eayle Tavern in Money. Mengas kept a
store on the West Branch Canal, about a
mile and a half below Money dam. Their
engraver was James Allen, called the Judge
also. Abe Ilausu nnd his sou Lewis are now
in prison at Danville. Brass is held in $3000
lo appear at Sunbury Northumberland county,
to answer, and Mengas has kept himsuif se
creted and is at large.
Tho location of this gang was well chosen,
at a point of Limestone township, Montour
county, contiguous lo and within a few hun
dred yards of both Northumberland and Ly
coming counties, leaving access lo either
county to be readily accomplished in case of
a surprise. They had also Iheir mountain
and swamp fortresses, and spies on every
road for miles around. It was not an easy
every day thing for officers from the city to
go into a strange ci.tiulry, among stiangers,
not knowing but that ihe simplest query
might excilo suspicion, and undo all, and
meet with such successful results ; results
alike ciedible to those arranging Ihe plans of
operation, and to the officers who resolute
ly, boldly, and unflinchingly went to their
work.
The last heard fiom old Abe Hjosu was
lhat he had no hope of escape ; ho was f0
yeais of age, and he expected loend his days
in prison "a felon's doom."
For 25 or 30 years has this old Abe Mause
exercised his contaminating vocation of coun
terfeiting, &c. His tavein, at Limestone,
was thu constant resort of counterfeiters,
shovers, and horse thieves, from Western
New Yoik, Western and Northern Pennsyl
vania, Caiul Boatmen, Sec , &c, by and
through whom most of Ihe ,!stufT' made, or
brought there, was -shoved" ofT. As many
as forty vehicles have been seen at a time at
Hause's, and coming in from all parts of the
country, the parlies going there to buy the
"stutf" when a new and good thing was out,
at ihe rate of 8, 10, 15 or 2 J dollars good
money, for 100 cogniac, according to ihe
quality. Many of the horses rode to Lime
stone, were stolen previously, and there tra
ded off for cogniac. These horses were im
mediately sent off to the next "stage" in the
mountains, or otherwise, painted, stained,
dyed, cropped and altered, so as not lo be
recognized by their owners, if in pursuit. A
brisk trade was thus curriod on there in
"horse flesh." The good quiet residents in
the vicinity were kepi in conlinna) subjec
tion and fear, and dare not to open Iheir
mouths against the "suspected iniquity,"
for fear of the burning of iheir barns and the
destruction of Iheir property, as a conse
quence if they were to do so.
It is said, that on one occasion a "man" ri
ding a stolen horse, was closely pressed by
the party owning the horse, and his friends ;
Ihe stolen horse was !roda' lo Abe's Ilause's,
and immediately after, on tho aruval of the
pursuers, tha stolen hoise was found covered
with foam ihe gray clothes the 'Man' wore
were found, but Ihe lider was missing ; he
could riot have gotten away, the pursuers
were so close on "him." One of Abe's
daughters was, however, discoveied in a
highly excited and peispiring condition, leav
ing hardly any doubt that she was the 'Man'
riding ihe stolen horse, and had managed lo
divert herself of her "habit" and leassume
lemale attire.
8od people round about in those re
gions feel that the rootine out of this moral
'Upas" is indeed great relief to them, as
v. in aiso our citizens, w ho have suffered from
the "inundations" of the so called Montour
Bank. J'iia. A cws, of Uth vut.

THE ClllrPF.WA flLEE CUB MEETING.
The Whig meeting brought together
on Monday last, nl the Court House, to
listen to"the music of the Philadelphia
Chippewa Glee Club was nut as well
attended as expected, aod it is doubtful
whether there were not more Democrat
than Whigs, present. This is an evidence
that the democracy are men of taste, and
can appreciate Whig music, if good, al
although they may turn a deaf car to Whig
logic. The Glee Club was composed ol
four young men who are, no doubt, em
ployed and paid for the purpose. The
ball was opened with two songs from the
Glee Club, alter which Mr. Galbraith, a
young member of the Bar of Montour
county took the stand. Mr. Galbraith is
not devoid of talent, and with proper train
ing might make a respectable stump speak
er. But like many aspiring young politi
cians, who delight'to hear themselves talk,
he lacks much in discrimination and judg
ment. His effort was not calculated to
enlighten an intelligent audience. He was
highly indignant with those loco focoswho
call Gen. Scott a coward, and laid much
stress upon this outrage upon truth and de
cency, although he admilted that only a
portion of the? democracy were obnoxious
lo this charge, and with great magnanimity
conceded that the loco focos were not all
"human beasts." Now we consider all
this mere clap trap. We presume no sane
man pretends to question Gen. Scott's cour
age or military abilities, although there are
many who doubt his civil qualifications for
the Presidency. The attempt lo shew that
Gen. Pierce was not known in Concord,
his native place, was supremely ridiculous,
especially when it is known that he has
been for years at the head of the democratic
paity in New Hampshire, and that he ranks
as an able lawyer who has, probably, no
superior in the state, as an advocate, before
a jury.
The speaker, although he deprecated
these attacks on the character of either ol
the candidates, did not, himsell, hesitate to
insinwitc the charge ol cowardice against
Gen. Tierce, when alinilinj lo the fact of
his having tainted and fallen from his horse.
Now according to our code of moral ethics,
we think a false charge boldly made, is
less reprehensible than by circumlocution
or insinuation. We have always looked
upon these charges against Gen. Pierce as
mean and unmanly, prompted only by dis
honorable and unworthy motives. Gen.
Scott himself refutes them in his reports.
He does not only speak well ol Gpii. Pierce
but uses strong language in praise of his
gallantry.
In the imagination of the speaker, Gen.
Scott's gun powder achievements coveted
up all his deficiencies, and renderrd him
fit for any civil office. One of his apostro
phe's to the hero, it is said, ran thus: (we
having stepped out about that time.)
"Behold that tall white nodding plume-
It ho General's plume, by the bye, is or-
ange.)
Oh hie.: niny il vn'i
O'er the Irui'I nf tlie frc sn.l the tmme of th tirnvc.
Under that tall plume is a tall chapeau,
as broad as "the plallorm," which, Mr.
Greely said "he would spit upon." Under
this tall chapeau, upon a pair of tall should
ers as broad as the sinner's path, repose a
pair of brilliant epaulettes, glittering with
gems and gold, fresh Irom the mines of
Golconda and California. Under these
glittering epaulettes is the tall and manly
form ol our candidate, measuring six feet
four in his best lamb's wool stockings, of
Germantown make, who if elected, will
make the biggest President that ever occu
pied the Presidential chair."
This picture may be somewhat over
drawn, as our informant's imagination
sometimes takes wings.

In another column our readers will find
a sketch of Gen. Cameron's speech at the
New York mass meeting, which, for want
of room we could only refer to, last week.
Gen. Cameron is none of your windy blus
tering orators. But his views are always
marked with that strong practical common
sense, which, when he was in the U. S. Sen
ate, gave him a position and influence in
that body unequalled by any Senator sent
(here from Pennsylvania, for many years.
The people of this place and vicinity,
particularly, are under lasting obligations1
to him. But fir his influence and exertions, !
the rail road Irom this place to Hariishnrg,
now in progress, might have been talked
about, but not made, lor twenty years to ;
come. Gen. Cameron having spent a nor-
' 1
t.on ol his ca.ly l.le ,n tins place, still has
a warm side for his many friends in this
County, and it murt be highly gratifying to
him, to know that he still commands, as he
always has done, the esteem and respect of!
every hiirh minded and honorable man in
the community. When the few who may
think it their interest to traduce him, can
shew by their works, one tithe of his merit,
we shall not hesitate to let the world know
it.
