f3PThe Johnson meeting that was held
in the new Court Houso on Tuesday evening,
which wns advertised as a lecture on the
anccclips. nroclamations. Ac, of Abraham
Lincoln, was well attendod by all classes
and shades of politicians. Dr. R. B. McCoy,
of Northumberland, presided. The Doctor
is a Johnson man, but ho has no love for the
cops, and is, for various reasons, opposed to
Clvmcr. The sneaker or lecturor, was Chas.
II. Shriner, the Revenue Collector of this
district, who also declares himself in favor
of Gen. Geary. Mr. Shriner undertook to
show from the documents that President
Johnson was followiug in the footsteps, of
Abraham Lincoln. AVo have liot been ad-1
vised that Mr. Shriner converted any of the
Republicans present, though he certainly
made boioo impression on the democrats and
cops, who applauded him frequently. It
was certainly a strange phaso, evon in poli
tical science, to sec the self-constituted de
mocracy applauding a lecturer who wns try
ing to prove that Andrew Johnson, whom
they now claim, wa9 following in the foot
steps of the lamented Lincoln, whom they
formerly so shamefully slandered. Our
Neighbor of the Democrat will, no doubt, re
tract and take back, the worse than slande
rous imputations heaped upon Lincoln, and
all the hard things he said of President
Johnson, after this endorsement of Mr. Lin
coln. : f5gT"Citowiso. The account given by
our neighbor of the Democrat, of the Soldier's
Clymer meeting and the meeting held by
the Geary soldiers, is the best, and almost
conclusive evidence that Clymer's friends are
desperate and struggling against hope and
fate. We took occasion to count the strength
of both meetings, and we certainly could not
recognize a dozen soldiers in the Clymer
meeting, while the Geary meeting numbered
at least three times that manv. But all
the crowing in the world can't save Clymer.
Soldiers never can approve his course, and
how Johnson men can endorse a candidate
who treated their favorite, as if ho was
felon, is one of the anomalies of the present
day, and is only understood by those who
square their principles according to their
interests.
The Muncy Luminary speaking of Mr. T.
II. DuPuy, Presidcut of the Cuttawissu Rail
road, just returned from England, says, "It
has been well known for some time that his
visit to that country had something to do
with the Atlaatic and Great Western Rail
road enterprise, and we are gratiiied to learn
that Mr. DuPuy, has stated since his return,
' that the conuecting branches of this great
work, will be commenced and completed as

Dear Sir After the scenes of yesterday,
which I witnessed, I must respectfully de
cline acting as a member of the delegation
appointed by your committee to attend the
Philadelphia Convention. I believe the fate
of the State to be settled by yesterday's ac

THE ORIGIN OF TUE RIOT.
The following telegraphic correspondence
explains itself :
War Department, July 21, 1860.
To His Excellency Gov. Well ;
I have been advised that you have issued
a proclamation convening the convention
elected in 1804. Please inform me under
and by what authority this has been done,
and by what authority this convention can
assume to represent tho whole people of the
State of Louuianu.
Andrew Johnson.
The Governor's reply is as follows :
State of Louisiana, 1
Executive Department,
New Orleans, July 28, 1860.)
To his Excellency, Andrew Johnson, President
of the United Mate : 1 -' "
Your telegram is received. I have not is
sued any order convening the Convention of
18U4. . 1 he Convention was reconvened by
the president oi that body, by virtue of a
resolution authorizing him to do so, and in
that event for him to call on the proper offi
cers of the State to issue writs of election
for delegates in unrepresented parishes. My
proclamation wus issued in response to that
cull. As soon as vacancies can be ascertain
ed, they will be filled, and then the whole
State will be represented in the Conven
tion. J. Madison Wells, Governor.
The telograph of the President to Attorney
General Herron is regarded as a virtual over
throw of the Constitution of the State, su
perseding the Governor, who by article 69
of tho Constitution, is charged with seeing
the laws executed. The Rebel Gen. Herron
is therefore military dictator, and, by Pre
sident Johnson's order the troops are placed
at his disposition. Union men are prepar
ing to leav the State en masse, under the
impression that the Government will not
protect them. Gen. Sheridan has returned,
end will sustain martial law until after a
thorough examination is made by the com
mission, unless, as is feared, the City Gov
ernment is given back to the rebel murder
ers of our Union men by the President'
orders.
WUAT A 1'HIKKO OF TUB rUBRIUIUlT TUIKK8
or uta "policy"
The New York Eoening Post, a leading
Johnson paper, thus endorses the argument
of the Tribune in commenting upon the re
sponsibility of the President in the New Or
leans massacre t '
la the first place, according to Mr. John
sou' theory, Louisiana is a State of the
Union ; wh, then, does he interfere with
the internal affair of Louisiana t A con
vention waa to be held in Louisiana ; this
convention was either a legitimate or an
illegitimate body. In the first instance it
had a right to sit J in the second, it was an
illegal body, whose act would be void and
of no force, aud whose member would be
subject to arrest, if at all, under the State
laws, by the offloers of justice. A thoy
numbered only twenty-!, their arrest,
whenever their acts made them liable, could
not bava been difficult by the great State of
Louulana. Wa do not e on what plea the
President had a right to interfere, or wht
business he had to Issuo any order In the
matter. . .. , . .
Next, we find this oder addressed not to
tba Governor of the State. but VJ9 t,vT
nL'y General. Why is this! Does the Presi
dent supersede the Governor.!
But, ifler all, it no the a0'
th. Attorney General, 8i?
but a local city officer, the Mayor of New
Orleans-as it happens, a flagrant and defiant
Rebel, who seems to thiuk that the Presi
dential pardon in his pocket not only con
dones his orime, but justifies it it is this
person who takes the matter in hand of r
rcstins the convention. Under his skillfull
management a considerable percentage of
tho members were assassinated betoro they
wero arrested. , , j
.We do not seo how all this can be ex
plained ; we trust the President, by publish
ing the whole correspondence, of which we
have now only his order, will be able not
only to justify tho manner of his interference
itself, for the present we cau only say that
his order appears to have had as unfortunate
an effect as his 22d of February speech ; in
stead of comforting and protecting the law
abiding and loyal citizens, it seems to have
encouraged a bloody-minded and vindictive
mob ot men lately encaged in rebellion ; in
stead of "suppressing all illegal or unlawful
HPscniuiies, in iub worus oi me oritur, me
effect seems to have been to give full rein to
the most lawless and law-defying mob, and
to secure complete immunity trom punish
ment to the rioters.
Who made the President tho Judge of the
legality of a State Convention t When did
he hear evidence upon the matter f Where
noes ho get his authority tor interfering ?
By tho Constitution, "the United States
shall protect each State against invasion,
and on application of the Legislature, or of
the Executive (when tho Legislature cannot
be convened), aguinBt domestic violence."
Where was the "invasion?" where tho ."do
mestic violence?" where the npplication of
the Legislature, or of the Executive? Whers
was even tho danger to the public peace t A
convention numbering 20 men met in a hall
in New Orleans. Was it feared by the mur
derous mob or by Mayor Munroe that these
20 would rise and put the whole order of
Thugs to the qworrif
Suppose the convention was illegal ; sup
pose it had passed an ordinance, no matter
to what intent what then ? Its orders
could have had no force. If there had been
a doubt upon their legality, they ought to
have been taken before tho State Courts,
whose province it is to decide such ques-
ftions. If civil government is restored in
Louisiana, according to the Peace Proclama
tion, if Louisiana is a State, with a constitu
tion, laws, officers, couits and ludges, then
all such matters must be settled and decided
in tho State, by the State officers, and by the
courts, not by a mob.
It does not escape the attention of the
Union loving people that every outrage like
the New Orleans riot, in the Southern States,
is doue in the interests of oppression, and
against equal rights and impartial justice, by
men who were but lately zealous and flagrant
rebels, and who continue to boast of their
crimes against the country and the flag.
Whether n Memphis or New Orleans, Rich
mond or in Georgia wherever we hear of
mob violence, it is tho violence, the brutal
lawlessness of men lately engaged in an at
tempt to destroy the Union ; and their vic
tims are men, women and children whose
loyalty to the Union was so active during
the war that no history of the war can be
written without recording their courage,
fidelity and self-sacrificing. It is not plesant
to Union loving people to see the President
of the United States, no matter by what
accident or inadventuro, placed in the posi
tion of giving encouragement to such law
lessness, and making less endurable the suf
ficiently hard position of men, who, with
him, are hated and reviled by the lute rebels
as "Southern loyalists."
THE PRESIDENT "sCl'KliSEDKa ' OOV. WELLS.
From the Kew York llorald.
Col. Dostie positively denies huving sent
any such dispatch to New Orleans as is
attributed to him ; but on the contrary, in
conjunction with Mr. King of the New
Orleans Times, aud acting under the advice
of the President, repeatedly and urgently
telegraphed from here, urging the people in
uo particular to interfere with the u&seiubling
of tho Convention. .The President has vir
tually deposed Gov. Wells by directing the
Hon. Andrew J. Herron, Attorney General
of Louisiana, to preserve tho peace and tuke
all necessary steps to put down all revolu
tionary proceedings against the existing
Slute Government, aud ordering the military
forces of the Uuited Status to render him all
needed assistance. .
WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOB THE
KIOT t
From the New Orleans Tribune, Aug. l.J
The Mayor himself docs not dare to place
the responsibility upon the Union party
so appareitt is the crnce to be fixed upon
the liebels. He speaks in his proclamation
of riots 'precipitated' by the meeting of the
Convention. If 'precipitated,' they were to
happen sooner or later, which means that
the massacre of the Union men was a preme
ditated act, for which tho occasion only was
wanting. The assembling of the Conven
tion furnished the opportunity. Suppose
that assembling was illegal or irregulur, it
could be stopped by proceedings of law.
1 here was do use to have recourse to assas
sins. No provocation whatever came from the
Convention itself, whose members were
quietly sitting in the Hull, or from the at
tendance. The Times itself, speaking of
the origin of the riot, acknowledges that
the lirot policeman who made a rush among
the colored procesbion, acted on a wrong
imprebsion. That journal says:
"A white man who was standing on the
neutral grouud looking on, was shoved aside
by one of the freedineu, aud tripping against
the curbstone fell.
"The policemen in tho neighborhood on
seeing tins sjxed that the white man had
been struck, and advanced to arrest the sup
posed assailant."
Now we must add, on information received
on the spot, that the white man "shoved
aside" by a colored man, had fired a pistol
into the procession, and wounded one man,
who was brought into the Mechanics' Insti
tute. - Who was the aggressor t
The whole narrative of The Timet is high
ly suggestive, and cannot conceal the true
character of the riots assassination of black
and white Union men. We make, for the
enlightenment of our Northern friends, the
followiug extracts:
'It 1 our painful duty to record the oc
currence, its thi citv yesterday, of one of
the most disastrous disturbances of the pub
lic peace, which ever disgraced the city, and
attended with more loss of life and maiming
of body than any similar occurrence in the
history of New Orleans."
Then come a paragraph which clearly
show that the colored people gathered
around the Convention had no arms, and
did not even expect that they could be in
the necessity of defending themselves:
"At first there seemed to be no disposition
on the part of the negro throng to iutertere
with the policemen in the arrest of the
prisoner ; the negroes, affrighted, packing
themselves cIobo together, much at a llock
of scared heep."
And they were butchered like sheep.
Again Tlie Timet say :
"A lull occurs iu tho firing and the front
it now comparatively quiet. The police do
no not enter, notwithstanding a lull in the
fire, and the negroes who come out of the
front door, all well at those dropping from
the window, one by one are attacked and
killed many of tbem-t-notwithstanding the
efforts of tb police.
"To tee the negroes mutilated and literally
beaten to death at they sought t eeeapt, was
one of the most horrid pictures it baa ever
been our 111 fortune to witness." -.- ;
Again:
"Chief Adams and all of his subordinates
were everywhere upon the scene, seeking to
prevent violence at the hands of whife citi
zens, who, armed with sword-canes, clubs
and missiles, attacked the escaping inmates
of the building. , . i , i i
'Only when a prisoner attorn pted to escape
was he fired at, though there is testimony
of some firing at prisoners by policemen that
was both wanton and, as it appeared, un
necessary.!' I , ,'f. :'
Here we see tho police officer firing at
prisoners, wantonly and unnecessarily. Here
also we sco the white Rebels arming them
selves with sword canes, clubs and missiles
to attack defenseless Union men, attempting
to escape from the building.
For over two hours this heart-rending
scene was continued.
"One negro fell," says The Times, "and
beaten, covered with blood near the fence.
Another and another fell, killed while the
police were bearing him off."
Again :
'There was many among the crowd who
were drunk and infuriated, and who attack
ed even policemen who were escorting away
prisoners, beside, in several instances, killing
the prisoners.'
An investigation will only reveal particu
lars of the most shocking and most nstro-
cious kind. The character of the riot is
already sufficiently ascertained by tho very
word of the bitterest enemy of the Conven
tion. Uur prophecy o! the loth of Decern
ber, 1864, at the time of the Gleason case is
now completely tulnlled. We said then
But, for every Union man in tho city, the
last verdict is a warning. In the event as
impossible as it may appear that Rebel rule
should temporarily be re-established here,
we can forsee the fate of the friend of the
Union. Then there will be no mure justice no
more protection for them than for the hated
negro. It will bo lawful to pursue them in
the streets, drowu them, kill tliem, nnd no
jury will be found to convict the murderers.
Let the Lnionmen understand the case.

A COPPERHEAD FALSEHOOD REFU
TED. HAiutisuL'ito, August C, 1800.
Editor American :
In last Friday's issue of Purdy's
copperhead print, I noticed one of the most
brazen, untruthful, nnd shameless attempts
to gull the people of your community, by
stating that the miserable convention held
by the "cops" here, on Wednesday last, was
on "Immense Soldiers' Convention'' every
county in the State fully represented" a
large proportion of one legged, one armed
veterans I" fee. Now, as an evo-witness of
this whole miserable copperhead f z.te, (and
having a reputation for truth and veracity
at stake,) I will venture to prove, by three
or four reiiontiUe men of the democratic
party residing here, thut the procession,
when it lei t the Exchange building, did not
number over !?00 men and boys and the
stragglers, strangers and others that flocked
to the Capital to see the fun, by other routes
than that taken by the motley croupe of
cops, (who followed the board walk for the
purpose of having ample room and a sure
footing, many of them having become sea
sicl) did not number over 150 people, all
told. A large number of the uudience in
the House of Represntatives chamber were
Union men, friends of Gen. Geary, who
crowded in to see the fun. Tho hall holds
probably 450 or 500 persons, was not
crowded at anv time, and contained at
least 150 bovs and women 1
How in the name of Thomas Pepper, Esq.,
who, profane History informs us, was
kicked out of Beelzebub's dominions for
lying can 'JVuman take tho impudence to
lay before his intelligent readers, such an
unmitigated falsehood? He evidently was
not present at the snake convention, but
copied the report from that vile sheet, the
Philadelphia Age, an epitome of falsehood
and treason, as Glossbrenner's own friends
well know. 8o far as tho "one-legged" and
"one-armed" representation wus concerned,
at this last fizzle of the copperheads, why,
sir:
"Optics sharp it noed, I ween,
To see what teas not to besecn !"
Oce man in the crowd (probably a sub
scriber to Purdy's paper) aud the only indi
vidual I noticed with one arm, professed to
have lost his limb in the "terrible charge at
the battle of Gettysburg." A burly liish
pian stepped up and denounced him us an
imposter said he kuew his man well and
that the loss of his member resulted from
careiussuess while working at a threshing
machine I So much for copperhead bravery.
One-legged men there were none visil.le
save, perhaps, a few dozeu who were lame
or had sore legs about drifting time! Thut
a great utuuy had the use of but one leg, whs
evident from the fact that they lay in and
around the depot, in the evening, reatiutr
their weary frames, rendered so by wuuiler
iug about the city, and from ovur-iudulgen.ee
in cheap whiskey.
The idea of Purdy's trying to make capi
tal out of Clymer Soldiers' Convention U
worse than ridiculous. The Soldier-voter of
Pcnnsylvauia know whom they fought with,
and under, and who fought aguinst them iu
the Legislature of Penn&ylvauiu I Bravely
they remember this.. .They Inow who was
in the thickest of the fight at Gettysburg,
aud who, when the gallant Hewiolds fell,
mortally wcunded, made the terrible charge
which drove the reliel horde, bleeding and
bowling, from their strongest position,
which resulted in victory to the Union Arms!
The soldier know,, too, that for this great
victory which the gallant Geary so bravely
fought and risked bis life to gain. Harris
burg, Lancaster, Reading and Philadelphia,
and the many other beautiful towns in Penn
sylvania would have shared tho fate of
C'bumboYsburg I What sensible man can
doubt this I Gen. Geary bear honorable
mark upon hi body several wound a

the battle for the Union he waa promoted
