The Union Meeting in Reading.
On Wednesday _last, the Union men of Old
Berke and adjoining . counties, who sustained
the ConStitation and tho'Dnion when assailed
by th4Opperhead Democracy iu the rear and
. .
their, leaders in the. front, met at Reading, in
>:•isuch overwhelming numbei.s as tip make sneak
ing,.cOwardly traitors tremble. Thirty thous
:and of the brave and true men of Pennsylvania
! ., ,erere,there exhibiting all the zeal and erithnsi
sem manifested by them when all that an Amer.•
tata citizen should hold sacred was assailed by
..hloOd-hOunds of Democracy. The boys in
..ii).140 . "0 rolled back the hordes of the traitors
ander the orders of Jeff. Davis. Breckinridge,
Bnchtinttri & Co., at Antietam and Gettysburg,
from pitr own State, were there. A large pro
ees49.n wan . formed under the directions of
Chief Marshal Maj.-Gen, John F. Hartranft, and
.number of assistants, and marched
..Arpkgh the streets.
Ila,thirafternoon able and eloquent speeches
were made at different stands, by Gen. John
• W. Geary. Col. John W. Forney, Hon. Lewis W
W. Hall, Col. M. B. Thomas, Gen. Joseph
W2Fisher and others.
This large assenablage of Union men, unlike
'ke rabble 'which previously had desecrated,the
streets of.that usually quiet inland city, as on
All ()cessions, behaved themselves well, in place
'of being a terror to the citizens.
The 22nd of August, 186 G, will long be re
atemhored by the citizens of Reading and the
tins of thousands of visitor 3 who participated in
that great meeting.
- The ovation to Gon. Geary the evening pre.
*ions, and the grand torchlight processiou,which
followed Was most magnificent, and sufficient to
Ailey the most ardent lover of his country that
watch•fires of liberty cannot be quenched
s by falsehood, deception and treason, but it was
only a prelude to the coming day, when large
delegations poured in from all sections, by rai!•
road and in all kinds of conveyances, carrying
!aniline rabic banum.s inscribed with .mottoes
some of.whioh were remarkably expressive.—
littisortg'the number were battle•flags, shattered
anCt.orit hi' Democratic shot and shell on
the biittlelficild, showing that the boys have as
little fearfor the threats ofthe Cly mer. Johnso
n brawlers as they had for their masters
ba' ilia rebel r'aiticti and are determined to vote
as they shot„ always against traitors.

is of the pot-house and den of iniquity, .where
their moral_ characters are forme d to lit them ..
for positions in - it:ie . :management of traitorous
Copperhead papers, and they cannot be trusted
until they have arrived, at such a state of per
fection as to be able to receive a bribe, and pub
lish it to the world, glorying in their shame.
That the pretended Democratic party are not
only rebel sympathizers, but apologists for trai
tors, the late movements on the political •chess
board clearly prove, and a few quotations from
the most reliable of their organs in this district,
th 3 Norristown Register, undoubted authority,
and, in fact, the only English Democratic sheet
in the district, conducted with either ability or
decency, will clearly show that
“Democrats believed that the war carried on
against the Southern States had no warrant in
the Constitution, and fferefore wrong. * * *
"The President holds gentlemen and free•
men at the Dry Tortugas and elsewhere, con
demned to death by slow torture, by military
comihission, without warrant of law, in sueh•ca
ses as that of Dr. Mudd, Col. St. Leger Green
field bnd others. And then that most monstrous
and damning wrong, Jefferson Davis, once a
gallant and meritorious officer of the United
States army, once Secretary of War of the Uni
ted States, hunted like a wild beast, immured
in prison, loaded with chains out ofpure brutaii
ty.”
If Mr. Davis is held a prisoner out of pure
brutality; he certainly cannot be held as a crimi•
inal and must be an innocent man.
"Virginia has the right to send Robert E
Lee and Joe Johnston to the United States Sen
ate if she chooses." •
No doubt the copperheads would like to , see
not only Gen.. Lee, but Jeff. Davis, Dr. Mudd,
and all the most noted and cruel Rebels in Con
gress, and the Senate hoping througli their in
fluence to obtain control of a few insignificant
post offices or other small teats of the public
Treasury.
"Thousands of the citizens of the Southern
States are to-day deprived of the elective fran
chise because crime has been imputed fo them.
Seine of the best citizens the country ever had,
who always stood up for free Government and
in defence of the principles of American liberty,
are languishing in prison, others as good citi
zees as the country could boast of; having oc
cupied the highest places in the republic are
exiles in foreign lands."
Referring to Davis, Hunter, Breeltinridge,
Harris, of Tennessee, and others whose crimes
consist not only of treason, but cold-blooded
murder, arson, and all the lesser crimes known
to the calendar, including the cruelties practic•
ed upon Union prisoners at Libby, Bell Island)
Andersonville, Florence, and other prison-pens.
There can be no doubt but that the Democracy
worship Davis and his crew, and any work,
however dirty, that will, help them to again dis
'pense patronage, and plunder the nation, they
are ready for.
DEAEOCKA.CY
The Northern dough•faced Democracy are
certainly the most submissive and pliant tools
ofany set of men to be found in any nation,
outside of Egypt, and the most enormous gor.
mandizersy capable of swallowing any amount
of rubbish that can be gathered from the sew
ers and purlieus of treachery and wickedness.
James Buchanan knew the material better
than they knew themselves, and all that vas
wanted was the power to dispense public pat
ronage, and their services could he relied upon
for any dirty work,thefilthier the better. Thus it
was an easy matter for him to sell out the whole
Democratic party and entirely change the prin
ciples and purpose for which it had been crea
ted, and in place of its being a party for the
people, it became the servant of a few thousand
cotton lords, and a prey to the cormorant office
seekers. Free trade and slavery were its rul
ing principles, they both worked together; the
first. for the benefit of the latter, to the injury
of the' slave and the degradation of the white
laborer in every section of the. country. So
wedded were the office hunters of the Detnoe
racy to the slave aristocracy, and so indebteJ
to them for small favors thankfully received,
that when the slate power broke up the Charles
ton convention and run their separate midi.
date, that the northern dough faces got up their
Union and harmony clubs to support both can
didates, with the avowed object of keeping
their party organizations for future use in the
service of their masters. The services render;
ed were not what was expected, the rank and
file were willing to'vote with their leaders, but
dare not risk their carcasses in fighting for
them. Few went into the rebel army, the bal
ance stayed at home and encouraged those
that did go by resolutions and loud talk on the
street corners. Though denounced in the
most bitter terms for their cowardice and doub
le faced villiany by their masters.
It is a well known fact that for tho last three
years of the war, the only hope .. of the rebels,
was in the Copperhead Democracy getting
possession of the administration of the Govern.
meat and surrendering to them. President
Johnson was one of the most dangerous of their
clan, belonged to their secret society, knew
all their aims and purposes, and hypocritically
professed to be opposed to secession, and in
favor of making treason odious and punishing
traitors, and secured the nomination for Vice
President. The Democracy knowing his sen
timents well, through•.their secret societies,
sought to make. him President by the assassi
nation of Mr. Lincoln, they succeeded and now
have him, or rather he has them, owns them,
poor tools as they are, and can use them in aid
of tre„itorS and treason.
The more corrupt they are the better they
will suit ; he wants such men as are in
the control of presses purchased with the price
of bribery and corruption, and those who had
the audacity to declare their price to the world
are preferred, provided they have the ability to
to use the language taught only in the, pot
house and the brothel. Invective and deft'.
motion of private character is a sufficient pass
port to his favor; reason and argument are
not wanted, and truth is to be utterly ignored
by his supporters. The more degraded their
characters and indecent their languagel the
better chance they stand for his favors.

may be settled without cost to the applicant ;
hence, I wish you would notify all such

SWThe Bethlehem CHRONICLE says
"Nearly every day WO hear such questions as
these asked ; 'What good reason is there that
the eight thousand inhabitants of Bethlehem
and South Bethlehem should travel twelve
miles to getjustice ? The people of Easton
come,to Bethlehem for good hotels and good
schools, why cannot they come for justice al
so ? Would it not be a clear saving of 0 miles
each way if Bethlehem belonged to Lehigh
county? Would it not be a clear saving of
twenty-four miles if Bethlehem had a Court
Rouse of its own ?'
We commend the questions to our readers."
de The Union mass meeting, held at
Reading on Wednesday last, was the largest
outpouring of the people ever held in this sec
tion of the State. Large delegations were
there present from all the adjoining, counties,
and, in proportion to her population, we be
lieve that none did bettor than Little Lehigh.
Two trains left the depot at this place, in the
morning, the first having six cars packed full,
which was joined at Albertis Junction by about
300 who came down the C. & F. R. R , from
Catasauqua and Hokendauqua, accompanied
by the Catasauqua Band. The second train
followed with seven oars filled, on board of
which was the Allentown Cornet Band, num
bering in all from our county not less than
1000 persons. The IJniOn men of Lehigh . are
armed for the contest and have. enterea the

—Mr. Sam]. Lichtenwallner of Long Swamp

GRAND FANDANOO.-011 Friday last,,
the hungry squad started out under the guid
ance of old soap and lather, to set the faithful
of the traitor clan in the upper part of the
county right, and secure their nledges for the
coming contest in the great raffia for the dis
tribution of prices. Theplace designated for
head quarters is one celebrated as the head
quarters of the knights of the Golden Circle.
Whether their object is to revive the old or
ganization which lent so much' aid and .en
couragement to the Jeff. Davis Demoorney,tbat
he ordered his little corporal to pay Pennsyl
vania a visit and join hands with them, or
to start anew under the direction of the old
public functionary, with the hope of securing
more strength, is not for outsiders to know,
but we do know that the people of that region
are very partial to soap and lather,it suits their
notions,which accounts for.the influence of that
functionary. That section of the county is
congenial for the hungry squad, all the requi•
sites for Democratic . traitors abound,and with
the free use of fees, can be made effectual,and
undoubtedly was so used as to secure an abund
dance of promises. though what they aro worth
can be judged of by an incident related by an
ambitious young man, candidate for office, a
few years ago. He had been informed that the
only way to secure a nomination in this coun
ty, was "to go around rind secure the promis
es from a certain few of the most prominent
deceivers," so ho started out, reached a house
where he was directed to go; enquired if the
man was at home, and was informed that he
was not, so he made the object of his visit
known to the wife ; he wanted an office,
wanted the husband to secure the delegates
from. that District for hint, and remarked that
it was unfortunate her husband was not nt
home, and was answered that it certainly was
as three candidates for the same office had al
ready been there, and her husband bad prom
ised them all, and site had no doubt he would
promise him if at home.

RESOLUTIONS:
The follewing are the resolutions reported
by the Committee and adopted unanimously :
The unconditional Union Republican party
of Lehigh county, in county meeting assem
bled, reassert its devotion to the cause of equal
justice and universal freedom, and believing
and maintaining ' that the doctrine • that "all
men aro born free and equal" is the chief cor
ner-stone in our gc4vernment, and that it con
stitutes the sole stay and support of all free
governments among men, do resolve:
First. The reconstruction of the States lately
in rebellion, so as to secure to the people pro
tection against secession and rebellion in the
future, and ensure tranquility and permanent
neaee, must be based upon. ustice and equal
liberty to all men.
That the pau adopted by Congress (the
only department of the General Government
having authority in the matter,) as embodied
in the ptoposed ameniments to the Constitu
tion of the United States, providing that all
persons born in the United States or natural
ized are citizens and subject to the jurizliction
thereof. That no State shall count any male
citizen in its apportionment of representatives
whose right to vote shall be denied, except
for participation in. 'rebellion or conviction for
other crimes. Prohibiting any person who,
having previously taken an oath as member of
Congress or other officer of the United States,
to support the Constitution, shall have engag
ed in insurrection and rebellion against the
same, or given aid and comfort to the enemies
thLreof. Affirming the validity of the Nation.
al debt, presents a fair and just basis upcn
which those States ban resume their relations
to the general Government at any time they
may desire to do so.
Resolved, That in view of Three Hundred
Thousand patriot lives, and Four Thousand
Millions of treasure, devoted in the cause of
civiland religious liberty and of the Union,
against armed treason and rebellion,it becomes
our solemn and most sacred duty, to see that
this great sacrifice has not been m vain.
. _
I?esolveq, That the American people owe
an enduring debt of gratitude to_the brave and
heroic Soldier's and sailors who, at the sacrifice
of all that was most dear, have fought nod
bled in order that the Union might not perish.
Ben!red, That we owe it ti.Ohe .patriotism
and virtue of our Congress, that Andrew John
son has not been able to give! back the G)v-
ernment into the, hands .of rebels nu& their
ciders and fibettors, - Who • so lately' applied all
their resources to, its., destruction,. and whose
hands are still dripping With 'the blood of
ini.m men.
Resolved, That we view the attempt of Pres-
ident Andrew •Johnson, aided by unfaithful
and corrupt counsellors, to prostitute the
power of the great office he holds, to reinstate
recent rebels in authority and power, and to
persecute the loyal men of the South, who, in
the, hour of the National peril and affliction,
stood up manfully for the Union.
_Resolved, That the threats made by Andrew
Johnson and those who speak by his authori
ty, of afflicting the North with a civil war,
unless his infamous dictates ace obeyed, create
no fears with mon who believe in the justice
of their cause, and who are willing to sustain
it 0p4149 i bettle 7 field.:
Resolved, That the ungenerous refusal of
the President to pay our bravo soldiers the
extra bounty provided by Act of Congress, af
fords additional evidence of his hostility to the
Union soldier, and the cause fur which he
struggled. •
Resolved, That the Republican party of
Lehigh county, do most heartily sympathize
with the down-trcdden and oppressed of all
nations, and that the efforts ofauy people, suf
fering under oppression, to throw off the yoke
cf the oppressor, and stand forth fi freo people,
commend themselves to our warmest regent.
Resolved, 'rant ,whan we reflect upon the
terrors and desolations wrought by the late
slaveholders rebellion, we are admonished of
the inestimable blessings of peare, and we do
mcst solemnly call upon all good citizens, and
particularly upon members of the Democratic
party, to refuse to lead their assistance and
countenance to the ina guration of a civil war
at the North, as threatened by Andrew John.
son and his rebel friends.
Resolved, That we hail the nomination of
Major General John W. Geary, the Patriot
and Soldier, with delight ; and as our stand
ard•bearer In the present political campaign,
we pledge ourselves to rally to his suppert,
and use every honorable means in our power
to secure his election. .
Resolved, That the patriotic course of Gov.
A. G. Curtin, during his adminietratian of the
affairs of the Keystone •State, and the ability
and fidelity with which he has guarded all her
interests, and his watchful care of the interests
of her citizens while in the army, and the or
phan children of the victim's of the `slavehold•
ore cruelty and oppression, entitle him to the
respect and admiration of o grateful people.

' What (.10 the sobliiiit ILil.LSolkll.in zolion on
the part of Johnson' hnd his officers, sworn to
admjpister . the lawa, and not to make them.—
It is certainly a bold move for the executive
officers of the Government to attempt to over
ride an act of the legislative department and
refuse to carry it into effedt. It is nothing
less than an act of tyranny and a disregard of
their oaths of office. Perhaps the President
thinks the act unconstitutional benne') ten
States were : uot represented. If so, why did
hh not veto it? Wes it because Copperhead
Congressmen voted for it, in order to secure the
extra S3OOO salary contained in the law and he
desired them to•have the money for election
eering purposes?
Ustos REseturtoss.—The following resolu
tions were passed at the Great Union Mass
Meeting at Reading, on the 22nd of August.
They have the right ring, and sh mld bo read
by every one. They express the sentiments
Of the tens. of thousands present, and are not
intended to conceal the opinions of the inn

Whereas;. That-we give praise and thanks
to Almighty God, in that he has vouchsafed
unto us n full and complete victory over those
who sought, during four long years of bloody
war; to destroy this the last altar of the rights
of ban; upon which to base free institutions ;
that the black and loathsome stain of gayety,
which classed us among the dark and heathen
nations of the earth, has at last been blotted
out, and in ell our land , no man can say to his
fellow-man "thou art mine,"
Resolved. That we owe a debt of lasting
gratitude to the Union soldiers and sailors for
their.valor and , prowess. in putting down the
slaveholder's wicked and bloody rebellion, and
we pledge to them, their wives and orphans,
protection, support and patronage, whenever
within our power to give them. '
Resolved, That in the joint resolution which
passed the Congress of the United States by
two-thirds vote, proposing amendments to the
Constitution, we recognize the only, safe pal
ladium of the principles for wbiiih we sacrific
ed tour hundred thousand lives of our best
blood and three thousand millions of our tree s
ere—that' in 'the same spirit which actuated
our forefathers to proclaim the Declaration of
independence in 1776—we most heartily en
dorse tho first section of the amendment declar
ing that all persons born within the United
States shall be citizens thereof. As a means,
also, of future protection, as well as present
fairness and equality, we are in favor of the
second section, which provides for equalizing
representation in Congress, and in the Electo
ral College, and we declare our avowed hostil
ity, now and forever, against the admission of
the States lately in rebellion, upon a basis of
representation which gives to the South 60
per cent. more power in Congress and in the
Elects:oral College than - An: equal number of,
White people in the North; while the third
section, excluding all perjured rebels from
eligibility to office, meets our hearty and un
qualified approval.
Resolved, That the true interest and pur
pose of the policy laid down by Andrew John
son (the man made President by J. Wilkes
Booth) is to resurrect from oblivion and, dia
-1 grace, the Democratic party, which, for its
treasonable course during the war, was con
signed to the tomb of everlasting infamy and
shame ; and we believe that the success of said
policy would turn book the wheels of progress
a generation in our country's march to great
ness and to glory.
Resolved, That in Major General John W.
Geary, the standard bearer of the Republican
party of Pennsylvania, wa have combined the
true principles, of the soldier and statesman.
the hero of many battles, and the defender of
civil liberty, whenever and wherever he has
been called to govern.
Resolved, That Andrew G. Curtin, the good
and loyal Governor of Pennsylvania, has well
earned the noble title of "the soldiers' friend,"
and, in retiring from the gubernatorial chair.
ho takes with him the entire confidence and
esteem of every patriotin the State. •

nominated. Abraham Lincoln for President of
the United States, by his having followed the
