T3B MASS MEETISO OF TUESDAY,
The grent, so-called, democratic meeting,
came off on Tuesday last, and was, perhaps,
in its way, the largest ever held in this
C mnty. Sticnunus efforts had l een made to
make a grand display, and this was certain
ly accomplished. The long train of ve
hicles, 179 in number, filled with men,
women and children, led some to suppose
there would be hardly room enough on ffie
square, to accommodate them, yet when
they were assembled there was a feeling of
disappointment that the crowd was not
greater. The number of persons present
might reach 3000, though some estimated
t'.ie number at one third less. Allowing ten
persons to a wngon, would make less than
1800. At half past one o'clock the meeting
was organized by calling Maj. William
L. Dewart to the chair, with the usual as
sistants. The platform was erected under
the trees against the eastern front of the
Court House. Soon after the proceedings
commenced the floor of the platform gave
way and let drop a number of ambitious
politicians rather more suddenly than was
agreeable, and gave them n foretaste of the
sudden "drop" and coming down which
they may expect on Tuesday next. A tern
porary floor with a few broken pffnk was
soon made and the orator of the day, nt
that point, Henry Clay Dean, continued his
harangue. We knew something of his per
sonal history, which was anything but cred
itable, but were assured he was the greatest
orator in the country. Never was an audi
ence more humbugged or disappointed. He
spoke with his hat on and puss sstd the
faculty of talking much and saying very
little. Ho was the great unwashed orator
of the occasion, nud his nppearaoce indicat
ed, that if he had any aversion to water, it
was, when accompanied with soap, instead
of whiskey. That Mr. Dean should be a
copperhead was perfectly natural. He
migrated some years since from Virginia to
Iowa, as a Methodist preacher, and was dis
missed from the ministry for bad conduct.
Like other patriots of his order, "Ho left his
country for his country's good," and having
proved an apostate to his religiou it is not
t surprising he should be arrayed against his
government, as he boldly proclaimed from
the staud, thut he would five fold sooner
vote foJctf Davis than Lincoln.
1 While Dean w as entertaining his hearers
outside, with coarse ribaldry And stale jokes,
Judge Woodward was engaged inside the
Court House, in addressing thirty-four
young ladies from Northumberland, who
represented and wore badges of the 34 dif
ferent States of this once glorious Union. A
A number of other ladies, as well as geu
gentlemen, were present. While we were pa
tent, the Judge endeavored to impress upon
them the importance of the influence they
were capable of exercising-und referred to the
".'.range and unaccountable method ofendea
ing to secure peace, by means of a bloody
war." As the Judge had, but a few weeks
s'.nce, published a letter, saying ho favored
a vigorous p.osetution of the war against
the rebels, there was a seeming inconsiateucy
in such re.narks, if uothing worse.
Ab ait the centre of the square, Francis
W. Hughes, E.-q., was addressing a consid
erable crowd from one of the wagons. As
an intelligent man, Mr. Hughes did as wtl
as might be expected, in his advocacy of
a cause that no true Jackson or Jefferson
democrat could sustain. Mr. Hughes' voice
became very hoarse, when Mr. Zigler, of
Selinsgrove, was iutroduccd by Major Jack
Cdinmings. Mr. Zigler whs hoarse also, and
retired, and was succeeded by the veritable
Jack himself, who, as chief of the Knight;
was one of the principal managers.
In front of Mrs. Pucker's residence, was
another gathering. Frank Gowen, Esq., of
Pottsville, was holding forth from a decor
ated wagon. Wo listened to him a short
time, but heard enough to convince us that
Frank's disease was deeply scaled ami in
curable. His tongue was as coppcrish as an
old fashioned penny used in greening
pickles. He indulged in that meuiic.t of
all kinds of treason, namely an attempt to
depreciate the government securities und if
currency, by saying, that the "greenbacks"
hail no better foundation than the Wood
wurd budge worn by hi deluded hearers.
The law has wisely classed deutli by poison!
a murder in the tirt degree, on account of
its secret and dangerous character. The

mo to the Legislature, and thus save thu
country.
Judge Woodward and Lowrie, made a
few remarks nt the Commencement, stating
that the issues were before the peoplefliut
declined making a speech.
WHY CTRTIN WILL Bffl ELECTED.
Gov. Curtin was elected in 1800, after the
warmest contest we ever hud in the State,
when Henry B. Foster, his opponent, polled
a vote within a few hundred as heavy ns
Buchanan's in 1830. The vote was as fol
lows :
Curtin 202,403 Foster 230,23!)
Curtin's majority, 82,164.
It must be recollected also, in that con
test, Foster received the almost unanimous
vote of the Douglas, Breckinridge and Bell
parties. Many of the friends of Douglas
and of Bell and Everett, will now support
Curtin. The election in 18G2, which result
ed in the choice of Slenker by a einull ma
jority, w as not warmly contested, as w ill be
seen by reference to ttte whole vote, w hich
was 57,880 less thun the vote in 1800, mime-
ly:-
Slenker, Dem. 210,140
Cochran, Union, 215,610
Slenker's majority 3,524
The gain on the soldiers vote alone, will
more than overcome this small majority.
Curtin, it is true, will loose a large number
of votes by soldiers being in the iirmv, but.
it will be seen, that he had over 32,000 to
spare in 1800. Then add to that his ac
knowledge gain in many counties, such as
Philadelphia, Lancaster, Chester, Bradford,
Erie, Somerset, Indiana, Ac, of not less
than 15,000 to 18,000. Philadelphia alone
will make up 0,000 of this gain. In fact
the Woodward party admit that Philadel
phia will give Curtin 4,000 majority, which
is a gain of about 7,000. There w ill be, no
doubt, 40,000 more votes polled in the
Stat than in 1800, which will be greatly to
Curtin's advantage. Now with 32.000 to
start with, and the admitted gains of Curtin
in the above counties, making in nil 00,000,
in addition to his popularity with the sol
diers and other advantages, he has over
Judge Woodward, on account of the Judges
opposition to the the citizenship of foreign
ers, in the Convention to amend the Con
stitution , ami his views in favor of slavery
all conspire to place Curtin so far ahead
that all the efforts of all the politicians can
not prevent his election by a large majority.
This js surely a most desirable result by all
who wish peace retored to the country. The
rebels say themselves, their last hope is in
the success of their friends in the North
with the democrats. Let every good demo
crat, then, crush the last hope of the rebels,
by voting the Union ticket.
J3f" The Pole Raising in upper Augusta
on Tuesday last, was a magnificent affair
and exceeded the expectations of nil. From
what we can learn the number of voters
present, nt this township gathering, was. at
least, half us many ns at the j;rcat meeting
of thu admirers of Vallandigham, Breckin
ridge and Woodward, at this phi e. The
long train of wagons that returned through
this place, mnst have astonished even the
great "Wagon Inspector" of thu Breckinridge
Democrat, who might have imagined that
the tale end of thu 1500 wagons at Miiton,
were just coming in. We have not received
the proceedings, but understand a number of
spirited speeches were made at the meeting.
N. B. Since thcabovc waswri'.ten we have
learned that some copperhead villains, on
Wednesday night, cut down the pole and
stole thu flag. Can true democrats stand
such outrages on the flag of their country
the Hag, in defence of which their fathers,
sons and brothers, have shed their blood
and given their lives. The pole will be
ruisvd again oil Monday ut 12 o'clock, with
another handsome flag. Let every l'reeuiuu
turn out.
Cr?" Tim Peace Paktv. Let the people
bear in mind that the men who oppose the
war are practically the allies of the rebels.
Lieut. Maury, the traitor, now in commund
of the Confederate Pirate-craft Georgia, in
his recent letter to the London Timet,
says :
"Other agents have to bo called into play
What ure they Let us inquire. - Thev are
divisions in the camp of the enemy, dissen
sions among the people of the North. There
is already a peace party there. All the cm
barratsmentt with which that party can tnr
round Mr. Lincoln, and all the dlicultitt
ttott it can throw in the way of the war party
of the Xorth, operate directly at to much aid
and cvmjort to the South."
1ST" Til em 1500 Wagoss. Some of the
friends of Purdy Bay, when he stated that
1500 wagons were in Milton ut the great
meeting, lie had in view rebel arithmetic,
which, like their currency, means ten for
one. We have uo disposition to be hard
ou our neighbor, und ure willing to receive
the explanation, that he is to bu understood
in a "Southern" or "Pickwickian" kcnsc.
This explanation w ill explain many marvel
lous things in his paper. When he refers
to number, recollect to divide '.he sum by
ten.

the nominations of the Union State Con-!
vention. Ex-Governor Morgan presided,
and speeches were delivered by Vice-President
Hamlin, General John Cochrane, Admi
ral Farmgut, and Messrs. Washburnc, Ilahn
and Townscnd. Letters were received from
Daniel 8. Dickinson, Roscoc Conkling, Dr.
Francis Llelr, Lnclna Robinson, Governor
Cony of Maine, General Biuel, Secretary
Seward, Governor Cannon of Delaware, and
General Dix.
The following passage occurred In Mr.
Dickinson's letter in regard to the copper
head ticket :
"While expressing an unconquerable ab
horrence of nil abolitionists charging tlicm
with being the sole cause of the war, it can
be for no other purpose than to gain the
abolition vote flint they have placed upon
their ticket one of tlie uior-t conspicuous,
eminent, and able members of the Buffalo
Convention of 1848, where Mr. Frederick
Douglass and other distinguished orators
competed for the honors. ' And yet they
tell us it is the democratic ticket, am! me
democratic party ! I'erhnjis it is 1 MVetil pie,'
s;iid Mr. Welleri junior, 'is very good, if jou
know the woman ns made it, and is sure it
aint kittens.' DeinocMcv. too, is almost
excellent sentiment, and inculcates tunny
sublime truths, but it is well enough to take
heed at whose hands vou receive it, and be
reasonably certain that there are no claws I
beneath its tempting covering of pustry.
Dr. Lieber wrote :
"Let us put our utmost zeal to our coming
election so that among other things, the
draft be carried out fairly, fully and honest
ly. It is necessary, nnd becomes the more
urgently so the nearer we draw to the end ;
for we must till up our regiments gallantly
thinning before the enemy, and we shall
staud in need of a large army for the period
when the country shall puss from the state
of tumultuous rebellion to returning and
supported peace nnd order.
"The flattering violence with which 1
have occasionally been attacked might in
duce some people to believe that my authori
ty must be of some weight. I am far from
claiming, but I ask, nevertheless, permission
to state, in conclusion, that in my di liberate
opinion the djaft is constitutional, legal nnd
necessary ; that England lias never given
up the right of limiting, nnd abstains from
making use of it only for foreign wars
not, however, upon any constitutional
grounds; that every gnat people must
resort to draltini; in" large and prolonged
wars, unless the Prussian system be adopted,
according to winch every man, without
execution, is obliged to serve, and does
serve, even in times of peace, for a time
that no nation is woitliv of the name that
cannot stand a draft in times of emergency,
nor can it maintain its position umoiig tin
great and leading nations of thu earth, nntl
that lastly, a foreigner by birth, who conies
to this country to enjoy its material advan
tages and the Ireedom he bountifully grants
to all, natives or adopted, makes an inad
equate leiurn for tlie-e benefits when, in
limes of tieed, he disclaims the duty of
fighting for these benefits, uud tlnows away
the light und privilege to light lor her.
Vice-President Hamlin spoke w ith great
argiihici.talivc force and eloquence for about
an hour, ami hi remarks wcic rcicivcd with
incessant applause. His allusions to the
glorious triumph in Maine were electric, and
when he recounted the progress of our arms
the audience rose in u tumult of cheers.
General Cochrane exposed the hollow
pretences of the "pence" democrats, and
concluded his speech with the following
indignant r-.'buke ;
"1 say we lire for subjugation. Cheers.
Subjugation of the last man that stands in
Ui ins against us, Cheers, of the last rebel

attention of every honest voter at the North
It is not long since the Kiciiiuond Enquirer
declared: "oar only h qiu invv i-. iu the
Northern Peace Party ,"' The Augusta Con
stitutionalist enlightens us as to the relations
between that party and the rebels. It says:
"We still have great expectations from
the peace men of the North and the ex
plosive wrath ol the opposition masses, but
we were never more firmly convinced than
how of the essential importance of thick,
fast and heavy blows from the Confederate
armies, in order to give vitality, system and

Intelligent slaveholders have regarded it ns
deplorable evil. Patrick Henry, Washing
tun. Jefferson. Madison. Clay, all concurred
in the latter view, and all desired lis remov-
al from our social lubric. Iheso patriots
were close observers of 4he system, nnd had
ample opportunities to study all its bearings.
Judge Woodward, on the contrary, w as pro
bably never residens for a single week on a
southern plantation, und even had he been,
the true condition of things could easily
have been concealed from him. Perhaps
there scarcely existed a more studed purpose
of disguise and secrecy than in regard to our
southern slave population. Whilst loudly
vaunting the superior condition of these hu
man chattels, it was always observable that
few sojourners in those legions ever got a
clear inside view of a -slave estate. The
masters Were chary on this point, uud sue
ceeded ill repelling or discouraging close
observation. This, of itself, was suspicious;
und the cruelty exercised towards northern
people in thu southern country, falling
under the imputation of abolitionism, still
further denoted there was something fear
ful, to be hidden from the outside world.
Some startling disclosures appeared nt
intervals, and reflecting persons saw that
underneath all southern professions and
semblances there lay a condition of human
existence painlul to contemplate. As con
ceal. lient, however, became more anil more
ditlicult, and amelioration in any shape
threatened diminution of income, the in
fatuated slave-mongers determined to destroy
this republic, nnd erect nn empire instead.

But although they drew that tlncK cur

prison-house" which confind their victims,
t ... 1 ...1.:. 1. 1
there were occasional reveiuinnis which wi
mitted light. TI.e world saw but indis
tinctly, but many were aided to draw just
conclusions from the statements of residents
or sojourners. Perhaps no publication of
the kind bus so much aided later inquirers
as the volume vviittcn by Mrs. Kenible, ex
hibiting the routine of a Georgia plantation
belonging to her husband. Day by day,
this lady has recorded her actual experience
as mistress of the household, and given to
ns, with specification excluding the idea of
falsehood or invention, so many details of
cruelty nnd oppression, that the render can
not but feul much better qualified than
Judge Woodward to determine whether
sin very is "an incalculable blessing."
Herein we see that the unhappy slaves
upon this Georgia estate, owned by a citizen
of Philadelphia, and not a w hit w orse than
most of those in our southern country, were
doomed to a life of hopeless wretchedness.
Their food was so poor and scanty that the
younger children had barely enough to sus
tain life, whilst both men and women work
ing in the fields were restricted to a course
vegetable diet, rarely tasting meal or any
other palatable food. Ou this meagre fare
they toiled from daylight until late into the
evening, nnd were punished severely if the
allotted task was not fully performed. The
torture thus inflicted was terrible the mer
ciless driver using the whip with dispropor
tionate severity, so that human nature
would skin under the dreadful infliction,
and thu unhappy negro would frequently
fly to tlm contiguous swamps to escape
these agonies, though there tl.ey encounter
ed rattlesnakes and risked starvation.
Women, weak from recent child-birth,
were forced prematurely into the field of
labor, and most piteous were their supplica
tions to this lady that the short term of three
weeks should be extended t ) four, that na
ture might give them a little more strength
before resinning their exhausting labors.
The kind hearted mistress pleaded unnvail-,
inuly for these, her humble sisters. There
was a stem and unpitying routine on that
secluded plantation near the sea, Am', even !
for thus humbly petitioning that lady for
relief one of these poor creatures wascruelly
flogged by the incensed overseer. The man
ner of the eastigation in this and other
similar cases was us indecent as it was Cruel.
The modesty that evermore pertains to wo
man, whether her skin be of an ebony or an
alabaster complexion, was as ruthlessly out
raged in these brutal flagellations as washer
quivering body, writhing under the lacera
tion of the heavy slave-whip. No wonder
that, to escape such seourgings, she often
yielded her chastity, and became the mother
of other wretches, doomed, like her, to per
petuate such woes.
Even the material comforts of human life
and a plenteous support in extreme old nge
vvonl , but slightly ullcviate such miseries
us tbisp. But there was no such alleviation
Wretched hirvels, with earthen floors and no
furniture, were the only abiding places of
these poor people.' They had 110 regular
meals, no chairs or tables, no beds to lie on.
They huddled like animals on the earthen
floor, und slept ns best they might until the
early duwn summoned them again to their
wearisome toil. It is untrue th-tf the super
annuated were tenderly cured f'W. Worn
out with unrcmuncratcd labor, they were
employed jn attendance on the children
whose mothers were in the field ; and when
altogether incapable of any service, they
were sent to the infirmary to die. There
they lay on the bare earth, almost in total
darkness, for the Windows were unglazcd
and could not usually be opened. Rucked
with Rheumatism, or suffering the many
aches of protracted old age, w ithout any
sustenance or appliance benefitting their
condition, these poor wretches lingering out
their little remnant of life.
This is, indeed, u fearful portraiture, yet
on every page of the book is stumped the
unmistakable features of truth. If such be
the workings of the horrid system us respects
the black man, is its tendency any bettter
ill its results to thu white man? Let the
insane rebellion, which is its legituiatu pro
geny, answer thu question. And viewed in
this double relation, let the candid reader
estimate at its proper value the opinion of
Judge Woodward, that slavery is "an in
calculable blessing." Philadelphia Sorth

The Incarnation of demonology on earth ;
the reign of disorder, slavery and tyranny.
There was a party in the revolution and
what was its name ? , Cowboys I Tlwre is a
party fo-dny, and what do we cuH it ? Cop
perheads ! Derision.
The speaker declared that he was onnc a
Democrat of Democrats, but the country
mnst be saved even if the party must be
ruined. The Copperheads declare that the
party must be saved even if the country is
destroyed. I hate them with a holy hatred.
No compromise with them. Fight them
Inch by inch. Eject them. Crush them.
Great cheering. Our great fault has been
want of earnestness and sincerity. Be uni
tedbe brave. United, we could finish this
rebellion in ninety days. In a state of war
there is no question but wnr, or else we are
hypocrites. Hurl, then, your strength
against the enemy. Give them not an inch.
Wliat are soldiers for? To eat hard tuck?
No. It is to destroy ns well os to sufTer. Be j
us true to your soldiers as they are to you.
When you ask victory at their hands, re
member that they ask victory ut yours.
The speaker drew an admirable distinction
between the peace desired by the loyal nnd
that of the disloyal. His peace was in the
establishment of the right, the coercion of
the wrong. Proclaim an armistice, and
make a peace with negotiation. Did you
ever hear of n real peace made in such
methods ? War is honest. Cunnons speak
with no forked tongue, and bayonets are
are true. Let us have the peace which we
gain with honor. Any other is us poisonous
us the shirt of Nessus upon Hercules.
General Cochrane made a long, able and
eloquent argument, which we regret we
cannot report in full. Only n few of bis
earnest and impassioned expressions we
have roughly noted. In the course of his
remarks, he said that our cause demanded
our highest respects as the cause for which
all our soldiers are willing to die. The sol
dier is for the war. Will you dispute with
111 111 ? Will you dishonor the graves of his
comrades will you render all his sutfi rings
vain i He comes home 11 poor, maime d.
siil'ering boy. Jakeotl your hat to linn :
He is a hero. Great applause.
General Cochrane asked what couhi be
more radical than revolution ? Must we be
conservative w hen Jelferson Davis is radical i
In war we must Ijght lire v. ith tire. We
cannot put it out by pouring oil upou it.
Applllllse.J
At every point of his speech General
Cochrane was cheered. 1 1 is aigument con
vinced the people, and carried tin in entirely
with him through a long speech.

The Conimereiar special Chattanooga
despatch, dated the oOth uit., says that 2U0
ambulances were sent within enemy's lines,
under u flag truce, and brought iiijover 500
of our wounded. While in the enemy's
hands they had nothing to cat but corn
bread. The rebels treated them very kindly
expressing regrets that they could not pro
vide 1'itter for them. They refuse to per
mit the bodies of the wounded or deceased
otlicers to be removed. The enemy lud 52
of our surgeons us prisoners of war. Our
ambulances returned to the rebel lines with
the wounded rebels who fell into our hands.

General Diugg bus consented to exchange
wounded with Oelierul lfosecrans. Affairs
are unchanged at Chattanooga. General
lfosecrans receives his supplies by wagon
trains from Stevenson, 'ihe rumors that
General iiosccr.ins' supplies were cut off ure
not credited. General liosccrans is conlined
to his works around Chattanooga, our lir.es
extending to the river above and below him.
His defenses are strong, and, it is thought,
so superior thut uo assault will be mude.

We had a visit this morning from a gen
tleman w hii left Richmond last week, and
who has been in the neighborhood ilurinii
the war. It cost alxnit $1,000 (United
States money) to secure a safe exit for him
self and wife, whom he married a year since :
and for some of the monev brouuht across
the lines he paid nine dollars of Confederate
for one of United Stutes monev, and for the
lowest he gave, long since, three dollars for
yjui inioriuani iiiki on a pair 01 noois
w hich cost him $173. and a plain suit of
clothes which cost $350. Recently he hud
seen commrni calico sold for $0.60 a yard
lildics' gaiters $75 a pair, coffee $0 a pound,
und other things in proportion.
Our informant saw the reinforcements
which left Richmond for Bragg, and judged
them to be nearly 40,000. Many of them
were nearly barefotcd, their clothes in a sad
condition, but the troops were plucky, nnd
in good spirits, Many of the men have got
used to the despotism, but some in and out
of service denounce it heartily.
Tiik Lath Batti.k in Gicoiiom. Chiekn-
mnuga, the niimuofthe creek henr which
the recent battle between Rostcrans and
Bragg was fought, is an Indian word,
meaning the "River of Death." it is said to
be pronounced Chick-a-may-ii-gii.
