Democratic CounV Meeting.
Hon. SAMUEL A. GILM.ORE
will address th© Democracy of
Greene county on Tuesday evening,
September 22t1, 1863, (Court week.)
Let him have a large audience.
THE COUNTY MEETING.---A GLOR
IOUS DEMONSTRATION. _
The Democratic County Meeting on
Thursday last was one of the largest
which has been held in the county for
years, and was throughout a gratifying suc
cess. The honest and hard-handed yeo
manry of the county were out in their
might, testifying their interest in the grave
issues of the pending contest, and their
devotion to the Union and Constitution of
their fathers. The speeches of Messrs
GILMORS, GIBSON, SEARICUT, ZEIGLBIL and
Horerss were able, convincing, eloquent
and patriotic, and were received with
every demonstrrtion of approval and sat•
isfaction by the large and attentive assem
blage. It was a proud day for the ga!lant
Democracy of noble "Little Greene," and
an occasion lung to be remembered.
HON. JACOB ZEIGLEB.
Our I)emocratie friends were delighted
with the speech of this life-long, orthodox
and indefatigable Democrat. It was able,
bold and scathing, and the Republicans
who heard it "squirmed" under it terri
bly. Indeed, it has been about the only
topic of discussion among then since
the meeting. Of course, they mis
represent it, and "cat-haul" the speaker ;
but this was to be expected, as it. has
been "the fashion" with the Opposition so
long that "the memory of man runneth
not to the contrary."
We are gratified to learn that Captain
Zeigler has been nominated for the Legis
lature by the gallant Democracy of But
ler. His public experience, his ability
and his incorruptible integrity would ren;
der him a valuable acquisition to any leg
islative body, while his courage and
"back-bone" make him the very man for
the times. Hie election - will afford great
gratification to the hosts of his friends
throughout the State.
DAVID ORAWFORD, ESQ.
Our talented townsman, DAVID CRAW
FORD, Esq., addressed the Democratic
Club of Uniontown, Pa., en Tuesday
night of last week. The "Genius of Lib
erty" thus speaks of his effort:—
David Crawford, Esq., of Greene county,
being present by invitation, addressed the
club for an hour and a half, in a most el
oquent and instructive manner, discussing
with marked ability and appropriateness
the questions which now agitate the pub
11c Mr. Crawford possesses rare
talents as a public speaker, and is well
versed in the political issues of the day.--
Ifis speech was listened to by an appreci•
.ating audience, with profound attention,
:and greeted frequently with hearty ap
plause. We hope our people may have
the pleasure of hearing him again during
the. campaivn.
vitirPrrea BROWN, Esq., our candidate
for Register and Recorder, has been quite
ill for several weeks, and is not yet con
valescent. This will account for his ab
serce from the Democratic meetings now
being held throughout tme county.
gay-Read the Address of the Democrat
ic State Central Committee in to-day's pa
per, and hand it to your Republican
nsigtibbrs for perusal. It will do them
g ood, if they are frank men, or upright
,and patriotic in purpose.
'the derttoOrtity of Bedford cooky have
nominated our talented toternpsrary of
the "Hreiette" as their candidate for the
Legislature at the approaching election
In the Whole circle of our acquaintance
we know df no braver or firmer Democrat
than Mr. Mims, or one more deserving
the favor and confidence of the party.—
His nomination is but a tribute to his un
faltering fidelity to the organization dur
ing the past two years, and his devotion
to the great principles of Constitutional
liberty, which have been so obstinately
assailed and endangered by the party in
power. It the people of Bedford are
faithful to their interests, they will return
him tothe next House by an overwhelming
majority.
WLLTER H. LowklE.
1. F. MEYERS, ESQ. -
A BEPUBLIOAN DIALOGUE.
The following brief, but significant dia
logue occurred between two leading Re
publicans of this county the morning
after the late Democratic meeting:
A.—" Well, what did you think of the
meeting yesterday ? '
B.—"Oh, it didn't amount to much."
A.—" From the crowd, I think it
amounted to a good deal. It looked like
a d---1 poor "show" for us this Fall."
13.—"0h, eoon blow over, if
we just go our death on the 'Union party.'
Say nothing about the Republican party,
but blow about the "Union." That will
win."
Just at this poi ,t, the parties got out of
hearing.
THE ASSAULTS OF THE ADMINIS
TRATION ON OONSTITUTIONAL
LIBERTY.
On this subject Wendell Phillips makes
the following reflections in one' of his
speeches :
"But let me remind you of another ten
dency of the times. You know, for in
stance, that the writ of Habeas Corpus,
by which government is bound to render
a reason to the ju iiciary before it lays its
harms upon a citizen, has been called the
high-water mark of English liberty. The
present Napoleon, in his treatise on the
English constitution, calls it the germ of
English institutions. Lieber says that free
meetings like this, and a free press, are
the three elements which distinguish lib
erty from despotism, and all the Saxon
blood has gained in the battles and toils
of two hundred years are these three
things. Now, to-day, Mr. Chairman, eve
ry one of them—Habeas Corpus, the right
of free meeting, and free press—is annihi
lated in every square mile of the Repub
lic. We live to-day, every one of us, un
der martial law or mob law. The Secre
tary of State puts into his Bastile, with a
warrant as irresponsible as that of Louis,
any mar. whom he pleases, and you know
that neither press nor lips may venture to
arraign the government without being si
lenced. We are tending with rapid strides
—you may say inevitable; I don't deny
it, necessarily ; I don't question it—we are
tending to that strong government which
frightened Jefferson; toward that unlim
ited debt, that endless army ; we have al
ready those alien and sedition laws, which
in 1798 wrecked the Federal party, and
summoned the democratic into existence.
For the first time on the continent we have
passports, which even Louis Bonaparte
pronounces useless and odious; for the
first time in our history, government spies
illrequent our great cities."
FORNEY ON THE WAR.
Forney says, in a ►ate No. of the Preee,
that
"No mater what may be the condition
or the terms of a reanion, the honor and
faith of the Niirth, the victories of our
armies the struggles we have undergone,
the sacrifices we have made, the hopes
that we give to the future, all demand
that there shall be no restoration of the Re
public without freedom as the corner-stone."
The plain English of which is that the
war shall not cease till all the niggers
are freed.
FIRE.
On Tuesday night of last week, the
dwelling of Mr. David Huse, some three
miles East of Waynesburg, was destroyed
by fire. It was a new and commodious
brick, and the buildint, as well as its con
tents, were entirely consumed, if we except
a Bureau and a few valuable papers. The
loss will reach $4,000. The cause of the
fire is involved in mystery.
BALTIMORE & OHIO RAILROAD.
This Road, it will be seen by an adver
tisement in another column, is again open
for travel and transportation. Farmers
and others "along the line" will be grati
fied to hear of it, as they will now be in
easy reach of one of the best markets in
the country for stock and grain.
HON. WM. HOPKINS.
Col. llopKtus, our hominee for the Stais
Senate, promises to attend several of
meetings appointed in this county by the
Central Committee. He may be expected
at Jefferson on Saturday, Sept. sth.
GIBARD HOUSE, PHILADELPHIA.
The card of this popular stopping-place
will be found in another column. It is
one of the best hotels in the country, ele
gantly and conveniently furnished, and
everything& traveller could wish it.
A COPPERHEAD.
President Lincoln said in his Inaugit
ral
"Happily the human mind is so coneti
iced that no party can reach the audaci
ty of denying any right plainly written in
the Constitution. If, by mere force of
numbers, a majority should deprive a mi
nority of any clearly written constitution
al it might, in a moral point of
view, justify revolution."
It is quite evident that President Lin
coln, if lie continued to hold the doctrine
above expressed, would now be classed
by Ili 4 )1r ti Li C ,pp•rittl
'The New Haven Columbicus is re
sponsible for the announcement that the

!Grand Rally of the Old De-
mocracy 1
On Thdraday, the 20th ult., the Demon:
racy of Greene county held a grand Mass
Meeting !n Waynesburg. Early in the
morning the people came pouring into
town from every direction, showing that
the bright fires of liberty were still burn
ing on our native heaths." The people,
from. several townships, came in large
delegations. The delegation from Jeffer
son township displayed a beautiful Ban
ner, bearing, on one side, the inscription :
"Judge Woodward and the Consittut ion ;
Iwo know no military necessity ;" and on
the Other side, "Free Speech. Free Press,
and Democracy, the only hope of the peo-
I •le." Beautiful flags were borne by the
processions and accompanied by martial
bands. They made a splendid appearance,
fully manifesting that, while the people
speak and act, they will be free.
A stand having been prepared, the
meeting was organized by the selection of
the following officers

lion. SAMUEL A. Giumoac was then in

That 13urnside's Order, No. 38, put under
martial law every citizen in the district.—
The President of the United States sanc
tioned the policy of thlt order by confirm
ed the finding of the court which tried
Vallandigham, whose policy was to restore
the Government by peaceable means.—
That the greatest calamity that can befl.ll
itny mkt* is that which could have been
avoided: : Vire`sufferring of this war could
have been avoided. [.Judge Gilmore, af
ter speaking a short tima, was taken sud
denly ill, and had to leave the stand. It
will be seen, however, by the call in an
other column, that he is to address the
Democracy of the County on Tuesday
Evening of September Court.]
R. M. GIBSON, Esq., of Washington, fol
lowed. Ile said that the great object now
of the party in power, was to make the
negro equal to the white man; and as long
as the Administration conducted the war
for the restoration of the Union, the Dem
ocratic party sustained it ; but now it was
perverted from the original object, and
that now, although the Republicans pre
tended to sustain the President, yet they
were slow to engage in fighting the battles
of the country.
Cot. Tuos. B. Sc.-tau:pm of Fayette, then
took the stand, and in a speech of great
clearness and force, laid bare the misdeeds,
corruptions and usurpations of the party
in power, exposing their blunderings and
denouncing their bad faith with the people
in the conduct of the war. His speech
throughout wa.s bold and fe trless, and
was warmly applauded.
On the conclusion of Cul. Searig hes
speech, the meeting adjourned, to reassem
ble at the Court House in the evening.
In the evening the people soon filled the
Court House. The President being ab
sent, on motion of D. Crawford, Esq.,
Gao. liostuNsoN, Esq., of Marion town
ship, was requested to take fhe chair.
Hon. JACOB ZEIGLER, of Butler county,
was then introduced. Ile said the time
had come when men must speak, when
every citizen of this Republic must go to
the ballot-box and say what shall be the
fate of this Government, whether the pow
ers that be at Ifashington city shall be
put out and more faithful ones put in.—
, This Government can never be victorious
unless its people carry the Constitution
before them as the Israelites car
ried the Ark of the Covenant. The key
I of our Government is virtue, and, when
we have ceased to love that, our Govern
ment is gone. His speech extended over
Dearly an hour aril a Lalf, and was a cap
tal and telling one.
Col. Nr. HOPKINS, of Washington, fol
lowed. He spoke at. length of the en
croachments of corporate power, and the
abuses of Executive power. He plainly
proved that, b) abusing Executive power,
the issue and aim of the war had been
changed. That anything is loyal when
Republicans act and speak, but let a Don
ocritt, do and Pay the same and it is trea
son. He filed his objectior.s to the policy
of the Emancipation Proclamation in giv
ing the orgroeti a free pass to any act of
violence and fElkiaraere.
- Time Chairman of the Couituitaee °wags
olutione reported the following series
which were tinininnously adopted :
Reentrosd, Ist. That wa are ids cavoa of
the "Union is it was, and the Constitution
as it is," which, in the language of Wash
ington, was "the result of a:spirit of unity
and of that mutual deference and conces
sion which the peculiarity of our- political
relations rendered indispensable," and it
can only be preserved by the same spirit
of conciliation and coucession.'
. .
2d. That the Union, under the Constitu
tion, comprehends not only the existence
of the rights of the National Government,
but those of the States ; and the violation
or invasion of either under any pretence is
ever against the Union, and against cqn
stitut ional liberty.
3d. That a free press, free 'speech, and
the writ of habeas corpus, are annOrg the
most inestimable of our constitutional
rights, and to tamely submit to their inva
sion or suppression is to surrender the moat
essential securities of elie liberties of the
people.
4th. That the events of the last two
years show the necessity of a watchful
guardianship of the rights of the States as
the best conservative of the rights and lib
erties of the people.
sth. That we the regard Conscription
law as unconstitutional and oppressive, but
we deem it advisable to yield obedience
even to an unjust law until its validity is
tested and decided by the proper tribunal.
Gth. That we charge upon the Republi
can party the responsi' - ..ility of this cruel
and unnatural war.
7th. That we condemn the tyrannical
conduct of this Administration and its
minions, in depriving the people of Ken
tucky and other States, by the foroe of Fed
eral bayonets. of the right to choose
their own rulers, and for seizing public
men in the dead hour of night. dragging
them from their homes and banishing
them from their families and friends, With
out a lawful trial, and for throwing p63.ce
able citizens into loathsome dungeons on
false and frivolous charges.
Rth. That we are convinced that there
is no hope for the Union, no hope of per
manent peace, so long as the Government
remains in the hands of the party who now
centrol it, and that we call upon the peo
ple to rally to the standard of the old,
trusted and faithful National Democracy,
which can alone bring order out of all.
this cqnfusion, put an end to this terrible
war. and restore peace and harmony to our
suffering country.
Rth. That we.hail with delight the nom
ination of Hon. Geo W. Woodward as the
candidate of the Democratic party for Gov
ernor at the approaching election,—that
his exalted character and distinguished
abilities eminently fit him for the posi
tion, and lead us to indulge high expecta
tions of his Administration.
10th. That the re-nomination of Hon.
Walter H. Lowrie for Supreme Judge
meets our hearty approval andi.shall have
our cordial support.
On motion of David Crawford, Esq., it
was unanimously
Resolved, That we regard Hon. Wm.
Hopkins as possessing that honesty, abili
ty and firmness essential to the faithful
discharge of the duties partaining to the
position of a State Senator ; and therefore
we cordially approve and ratify his nom
ination to bpresent the District composed
of Washington and Greene counties, and
will strivo to give him, in connection with
all our nominees, such a majority as will
secure their triumphant election on the
2d Tuesday of October.
THURLOW WEED'S OPINION Or
"HOWLING ABOLITIONISTS,"
Thurlow Weed, who was recently the
very brains of the Republican party, but
withdrew from active participation in its
affairs when it became Abolitionized has
written a letter to Raymond, of the New
York Times, enclosing $5OO for the relief
of the unfortunate negroes of that city
who were driven from their homes and
stripped of their all by the mob. In this
letter, after alluding to the unreasonable
hostility of many of the Irish to the negro,
and averring that hostility is embittered
by the course of Abolition journals and fa
natics, Mr. Weed says:
"But what cares Wendell Phillips how
many negroes are murdered it their blood
furnishes material for agitation ?
"There is abundant occasion _for the
public abhorrence of mob violence. But
when all the circumstances have been re
vived, the popular condeinnak.jon of those
who, while the nation is stsuggling for
existence, thrust the unoffending negro
forward as a target for infuriated mobs,
will become general and emphatic. Ultra
Abolitionists were hailed in South Caro
lina as the best friends of secession.—
Practically they are the worst enemies of
the colored man. But for the 'malign in
influence' of these howling Abolitionists,
in Congress and with the Presi•lent, rebel
lion would not, in the beginning, have
assumed such formidable proportions ,
nor, in its progress, would the North have
been divided, or the lioverument crip
pled.
WHY IS HE NOT ARRESTED AND
BANISHED ?
.Martin F. Conway, an Abolition Member of
Congress, from the State of Kansas, has re
cently written a letter dated from the city of
Washington, to the editor of the New York
Tri!)une, in which he tine the following lan
guage:—
Thus the war became a failure and utterly
ceased to bear upon the question of the subju
gation of the South in any manner whatsoever;
and now whatever may be said to the contrary,
there are few reflecting minds which have not
come to the conclusion that ;' THE INDE•
PENDENCE OF TILE SOUTH IS AN ES
TABLISHED FACTS whether recognized
Or not.
The war for the future, therefore, becomes
simply an instrument in the hands of political
managers to effect the results favorable to their
own personal ends.
As for the Union, I would not give cent for
it, unless it stood as a guarantee for freedom to
every man, women and child within its entire
jurisdic . ion. I consider the idea that every
thing should be sacrificed for the Union as utter
ly preposterous. %That was the Unio tt made
for 7 That we should sacrifice ourselves to it
I, for one, would beg to be excused. As things
stand. Itlr I WOULD SACRIFICE THE
UNION...gre to freedom any morning , before
breakfast.
Very truly, yours,
M• F. CONWAY
SERGEANT ZENAS JEWELL.
A letter to SAMUEL JEWELL, E4q., of this
place, from a prominent citiz,en of liagers
town, bid , gives the following particulars
of the killing of his son :
"Your son was killed near the residence
of the Mayor of this place, and taken in
to his house, from whence his body was
taken to the military graveyard on the
7th. It is believed ',hat the ball, which
entered the back of his head a little above
the line of the ear, came from a notorious
rebel house nearly opposite the place
where he fell,. Investigation is now going )
ON, and, if the evidet.ce is sufficient, tl,te
whole family . ' will be put upon trial for
the act,-and the guilty one, punished."
The Ihnie $lll -
Lee's Army Gone to Rich
mond
In consideration of the States of Ohio
and Illinois having furnished more volun
teers than their quotas, the draft in those
States will be very light—not snore than
12,000 in each—and it is probable the
number in each. State will be raised by
volunteering, and a draft avoided entirely..
The New York herald's specials from .
Washington say :—information is current
here that Lee's army has been moving off
from our front upon the Virginia Central
railroad to Richmond, but officers arriv
ing here to-night., whose positions in the'
army entitles them to know what is going!
on, say no such intelligence is in posses
sion of our commanding generals•
Lee is undoubtedly upon the Rapidan,l
and Rappahannock. His pickets extend
ed from the upper Rappahannock along
the river to Fredericksburg, and the re
gion about Potomac Creek is infested withl
rebel cavalry. Everything indicates that
the enemy intends to remain in hisspresent
locality, unless our , i:ovementa should
necessitate a change of base, and it is not
impossible that the next battle may be
fought upon that river. Indeed, it is ap
prehended Lee will assume the offensive
rather than retreat, and many expect ah
attack from him at an early day. Prep
arations for such an emergency are now
being made.
The Herold has the following : Head
quarters Army of the Potomac, Ally. 21st :
I have information from three different
sources, which leads me to believe that the
rebels have left our front and gone to
Richmond. Deserters who came across
the Rappahannock, say that the movement
of troops towards Fredericksburg from
Culpepper was only a rase to cover Lee's
real object, to enable him to, move his
troops southward by way of Gordonsville.
Day before yesterday large bodies of rebel
cavalry crossed towards the Rappahan
nock at seperate fords, driving in our
pickets. They came boldly out in sight
of our lines, and displayed in five lines of
battle erder. Immedrately all the corps
along the river were put under arms, in
which position they remained until morn
ing, when the enemy had withdrawn. A
cavalry reconnoisance was then made,
which went as far as Culpepper, but found
no enemy ; hut on the contrary obtained
such information as leads to the belief
that the whole force has gone in the direc
tion of Gordonsville. The reason for toy
belief I am not at liberty to give.
far Thousands of men in the North be
lieve that the Conscription act is unconsti•
tutional ; but it is the law and as such they
implicitly obey it. Thousands of men in the
North believe that the Fugitive Slave law
's also unconstitutional; but, although they
know it is the /au', they do not hesitate to
denounce it in the bitterest terms. and
openly refuse obedience to its provisions.
Which of the two classes is most deserv
ing .of public praise and honest commen
dation ?
