our candidate for Congress. The speeches were
able and effective argumen s in favor of the cause
of right, and In Alburtis It will be remembered
for a long time to come that although Republi
cans ore in a minority in Lehigh county, they are
up and doing, giving time nod attention to our

thing but opposition from us in a candidate for
Congress, because we have always contended that
he Is not a mite of proper or sufficient ability to
represent the weighty interests of Lehigh and
Montgotnery counties In the National Legislature;
but we must condemn the personal ill-treatment
of any man who comes to Allentown and behaves
himself, nod it does not reflect to the credit of the
politicians who gathered their friends about Mr.
Acker yesterday, and then enjoyed a perfectly safe
abuse of him to his face. They say that Mr. Willi

of Lehigh take the cue of their leader.
HORACE GREELEY IN ALLENTOWN.—A re
spectably sized crowd of people collected on the
Square Friday night, to listen to the Democratic
candidate for the Presidency make a short speech
Ile made a speech which meat certainly'have dis
appointed every intelligent man who heard him.
Absolutely,liis remarka did not contain the miser
tlou of a Mimic principle, and the floe old gentle-
mates talk to the people of Allentown was , likc on
old woman's whine, who might want to find fault
but didn't know exactly how or where to begin.
His chl4 amino was paymasteillodge's embezzle
ment of public funds, hut he told us nothing now
on that subject. When ho took his seat, It must
have been the honest impression of every listener
that Iloruce Greeley , had undue very lame aklress
for a statesman assuming so broad a knowledge
of public affairs. Even when he touched upon
what the Republican party is now rapidly finish
ing and establishing on un enduring basis, Recon
ciliation, he merely said ho wanted It, when In
his heart he knew as well and better than any
other man in the country that we have got more
of it now than could be expected after the late
bitter struggle.. After him the !meeting was ad
dressed by Gen. Kilpatrick, of bad repute. Mr.
Greeley subsequently met all who wanted to see
him at the Allen House, where 'hs passed the
night, leaving at eight o'clock and fifteen minutes
this morning.
Another Democratic meeting was held, last
night, in front of the residence of lion. Samue,
Bridges,which was addressed by Governor Walker,
of Vlrgiola, who, since the war, left Bloghamptou,
N. Y., and set up In the banking business In Rich
mond. By some political carpet-bag combination
Mr. Walker was made Governor of the Old Do
minion, slime which time he claims to have always
been a Virginian ut heart If not by birth or educe.
Lion. Ile is a Democratic earpet , bagger from the
North, and one of those men who have gained dis
tinction through the miseries of the State of Vir
ginia, which State to-day Is paying him a liberal
salary to execute tier laws, and he is running over
the country neglecting his duty and stump—
ing for dreeley and Brown. lie showed
binned grossly Ignorant of affairs In this State,
which have been current politicaltoples for months
past. Governor Walker Is a man of line appear
ance, but not of good Impression last night, for
without making any' intimation or charge what
ever, we are compelled to state, that he pro
nounced words as much like a man In liquor as a
um in that unfortunate condition ever did, nor
'dues his hoarseness satisfactorily explain It. The
word demoralization was frequently used and pro
nounced about like detriolly-ri-ation. If the good
looking Governor is In the habit of Indulging In
his cups too deeply, he ought not make speeches,
because last night be unconsciously uttered a very
contemptuous expression about the "woolly -head
ed niggers," of whom there arc quite .a considera
ble number In Virginia. Ills speech was certainly
ramblingin its scope, though neither that fact nor
his peculiar pronunciation can make us say post
lively that he was drunk. At the same time it In-'.
hooves - the. Democratic-Liberal Committee on
Speakers to he a little careful In the selection of
men to speak In Allentown hereafter, because with
Gen. Kilpatrick, Mr. Dittman and Goy. Walker,
the people have bad enough of this character.
By the way, Mr. Dittman spoke In alternate Ger
man and English remarks on the Square, last
night, until Mr. Greeley came, when Mr. Dittman
e-Oneluded.

THE RAILROAD MUDDLE—THE BERM CO.
RAILROAD LkT A TR WIC . ON FRONT AND CANAL
STREETS—AN INJUNCTION GRANTED NT JUSTICE
READ, OP THE SUPRESI6 COURT. —Yesterday
morning the Barite County Railroad plimed a
large forco of men at work laying track on Front
and Canal streets. The work was rapidly pushed
forward, and by yesterday afternoon the track
was laid as far as intended. Meanwhile au In
junction was applied for before Justice Rend, of
the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania, who was
sitting at Niel Prins In Philadelphia. The appli
cation was made at the Instance of the Philadel
phia and Reading and West Reading Railroad
Companies to restrain .the Berks County and
Wilmington and Reading Railroad Companies
from laying the track, and also to prevent them
from oslog what had already been laid. The In-
Junction was granted and served yesterday after
noon, when thin work was immeadiately stopped.
A hearing will take place on the Injunction at
Philadelphia on Batuiday morning at 10 o'clock.
—Times awl DLpateh of 20th Mar.
DEsioenATie.—The rain of Wednesday night
prevented the meeting on the Square advertised
by the Democrats, and an adjournment was made
to the Court House, where the court room half
filled with listener.s was taken possession of.
Bye-and-bye all the speakers announced—General
Meany, Mr. Perrin, Mr. Wlttle, (Peru Kilpatrick
arrived at 9 o'clock,) entered the room,'and Mr.
Jacob S. Dnepr suggested that Hon. B. A.
Bridges should preside over the meeting. The
standing committee on applause were present and
began their duties with the election of a chair
man, receiving Mr. Bridges with loud applause.
and drawing the remark later in the evening from
General Meany that he " had never addressed an
audience so exuberantly cordial in their reception
of speakers." This Gen. Meany, an Irishman, is
a man of considerable 'deportraent, fluent rhetoric,
weak voice, and given to repetition. He said
three or four times in five minutes that he would
not be guilty of the bad taste of addrest.ing the
people of Allentown at length last night, for there
were others present who were possessed of " burn
ing eloquence," and who would interest the audi
ence better than he. We do not mean to say that
the General gave It up quite so easily as the above
would seem to indicate, for he only retired with
the announcement that on Friday week he would
address the people of Allentown, and intimated
that he would th"n take his time to it.
Then arose and spoke that °veteran stun p ora
tor, Mr. Perrin, whose remarks are always full of
interest, though the auditor knows that he is
listening to a political "bamboozler" of many
years' experience, and who knows all the tricks
to hoodwink voters. Nobody was hoodwinked
last night, though Mr. Perrin made one of his
adroltest efforts.
Next followed Gen. Kilpatrick, who, a brave
soldier during the war, has lost character slum,
and who ought riot be invited to addr.ss respecta
ble audiences.
We were very much surprised to see the large
number of Democrats rice and leave the Court
room during the remarks of Mr. William Wittle,
when he rose to explain how he happened to be
nominated at 'Norristown. lie went over the
story and then began to talk blood and war, de
signing to continue Indefinitely, but forced to
atop because his audience had melted to about
half during his speech. Mr. Wittle is a speaker
of more than ordinary eloquence and force, hav
ing an easy manner and a voice of great capacity.
At the conclusion of his vetch the meeting broke
B Loopy I IloT BETWItt:N I !MD MEN AND
NEGROES—FOUR M KILLED AND X WOEND-
En —For some time past there has been consider
able ill-feeling existiog between tine employes or
tbe Eartoa & Hound !Look Railroad Comp.myont
the tuunc:, which le being pm through Jugtown
Mountain, about three miles front Bloonesbury,on
the Central Railroad of row Jersey. There are
two gangs of men at work, composed of Irishmen I
and colored urn. For some cause to.kaown, the
Irish gang have determined to get rid of the dar
kies. A few days since, several kegs of powder
were placed under the shanty that was occupied
by the negroes, a fuse was attached to them, and
everything was In readiness to send the poor un
fortunate fellows out of existence, but before the
deed was put into execution, the thing was dis
covered, and the plan was frustrated. The par.
dealers of the affair of Saturday night, as we
learn from the Easton Free Press, are us follows:
On Saturday morning a party of the Irish gang
came to Easton, and after filling up with liquor,
&y., they returned to the tunnel again, where a
quarrel ensued. The negroes, becoming enraged
at the conduct of the Irishmen, made a bold ou•
slaught, killing one man and wounding several
Others. The Irishmen then retaliated, and a ter
tilde battle ensued, every. hing that could make a
wound being used as a weapon. Spades, pistols,
stones, club• and fists were used with such fearful
effect, that neither party withdrew from the field
until three of the colored men had been slain
outright, and five or six badly wounded.
Arrests are belug made but the Irishmen are
leaving by scores, and all day long yesterday the
trains on the C. R. R. of N. J., carried some of
the desperadoes away from that section of the
country.
The following Bete forth more explicitly the
orlgiu of the affair which mulled so futally an
above related s Mr. Charles McFadden Is the con
tractor on that section of the Easton and Bound
Brook Railroad, and had In hls employ a gang of
Irishmen and another of Negroes. As there was
considerable. Jealousy existing between the two
parties, every available means were used by the
Irishnacia to drive the negroes away from the
worita,Lbut without success until Saturday night
Mat, when a party of the Irishmen have doter
mined to rob the negroea of their mouth's wages,
commenced an onslaught on them. Words and
blows were exchanged, but this did not drive the
darkles away from their habitation ; they atilt
lingered about their homes, until the young Irish
blonds began to shoot at them, when they found
it was necessary to have more help to overcome
their foe, and they then struck off, down the
road to the next section, where another gang of
darkies were employed. .Informing them of the
affair they again returned and having quite a
heavy reinforcement they of course thought they
could hold their own. But what was their sur
prise when nearing their huts to see them in
flames, and as soon as they came up close enough
to distinguish an object, to perceive three men
carrying a trunk containing some of their money
and clothes out of the burning building. They
made a rush on the belligerents to get their prop
erty back again, If possible, and as the men of
fered resistance, the darkies furiously attacked
them, killing one on the spot, and wounding the
other two. For awhile everything was quiet,save
the snapping and cracking of the burning embers
of the log huts. But the Irishmen were not Idle.
Scouts were sent out in all directions by them,
who having aeon the bloody affair made it appear
a great deal worse than It actually was. One set
of the men went over toward Hampton Junction.
Another was dispatched to the west end of the
tunnel to stir up the rage and auger of the men if
possible. As Yr iday was the pay day for them
and a place where liquor could be bought being
close at hand, the consequence was that they were
ail drunk, and having an exaggerated story told
to them, they became terribly excited, and, bead
ed by their scoot, they Immediately crossed the
mountain, a distance of very nearly two miles to
aid, if possible, their friends on the other side.
About seventy-five men from the west end were In
this gang. The oiler scouts that were dispatched
to the junction, told the same story to every ono
of their friends they met, and en they were com
ing back they took every one along they could get
hold of and were equally as desperate as those
from the west end. Boma time toward morning
the two forces met, and then one of the most hor
rible clots ensued that over was seen lu this sec
tion of country. Clubs.stleks and stones were
handled with terrible effu.t, and for a distance of
more than a mile and a half, the battle raged
fenrfnlly.

OVER 3,000 MEN MARCHING IN
THE GLORIOUS CAUSE.
The largest, best equipped, best marching, and
altogether most extraordinary procession of men
that ever has been, or will he, brought together
this campaign In Allentown in the Interests of a
political party, was that which marched through
the various streets of our city, under the auspices
of Republican principles, last Thursday night. 26
hundred torch-bearers nod from six to seven hun
dred others and nearly two hundred cavalry, front
Reading, Easton, Freemansbnrg, Bethlehem,
South Bethleattn,Catasauqua,ltoliend equa,Cop
lay, Ironton and Mauch Chunk, were In line, the
Admiration of the whole vast crowd of spectators
who lined both sides of every street through which
they marched.
Owing to the late arrival of the Easton, Bethle
hem and Reading delegations, the hour at which
the procession began to move was somewhat later
than that originally intended; but the unusual
patience practiced by the other visiting delegations

Gen. ; Own Ale Allister and his aids led the
thatch succeeded immediately by ths Allentown
Cornet B fel and the Cavalry. Aniong the latter
there was mush less confusien than was to be ex
pected, colo.idering that the if rem were nearly if
not quite all, entirely unaccustomed to such uses,
and especially to witnessing displays of fireworks
like those that brilliantly illutninated our streets
at Intervals. The Illuminations at
to and business houses were numerous and fine,
all of our Republican citizens showing a lively
Interest in the cause, and doing all In their power
to encourage the workers in It.
We have not the Intention of mentioning the
decorations In detail, but among the most elabor
ate were those of R. C. Ettinger A; Co. and John
E. Lentz c 0 Co. From the roof of the latter
building fireworks and'eolored lights were ills-
played.
Many of the gentlemen In ranks carried bequets
handed them along the route by the Republican
ladles.
The streets along the line of procession were
crowded with people waiting to see the show,and
the open space between the houses and the curbs
was Jammed with people moving up and down.
At Centre Square there were crowds continually
around both stands during the whole evening.
Never were such crowds seen In Allentown, and
none were more surprised at the Immense demon
stration than our candidates for Vice President,
Governor and Supreme Judge, who are accus
tomed to viewing big crowds of people. When
the procession wound up at the Square the effect
of the Clubs marching In and out, and massing In
a body, was grand beyond expression.
At the speakers' stand, No. 2, on the Square,
presided over by Dr. 'l'. C. Yeager, Senator Fleury
Wilson In the afternoon and Judge Russell, of
Massachusetts, briefly addressed their audience.
In the evening at this stand, the following gentle.
men spoke at length :—Judge Russel, Gen. Mank
In German, Major Brown of Boston, and Mr. Wm.
D. Forten, a colored gentleman of marked elo
quence and ability, who Is on our State electoral
ticket. At stand No.l, presided over by Wm. H.
Miley, Esq., Senator Wilson, General Hartranft,
Judge Russell and Capt. Curry, of Philadelphia,
spoke.
• It was impossible, in the evening to get a re
port of the speeches. When Senator Wilson
spoke he was greeted with the greatest enthusi
asm and so incessant was the cheering that greet
ed this noble man that it was almost impossible
to hear bin golden words. When Hartranft arose
on the stand the enthusiasm was unparaleiled.
notes been abused so much—his enemies have
piled it on so thick—that when his honest coun
tenance appeared before that audience and his
convincing words carried conviction to the hearts
of all honest men, the cheers upon cheers burst
forth spontaneously as the hearty expression of
approval from the only party ever formed that
undertook to carry the country forward in the
good work of reform. We remember Andy Cur
tin's tour through the State, in 1803, during the
great war excitement, but even he never received
a warmer ovation than llartranft received at Al-
lentown.
In the afternoon, Senator Wilson spoke from
the southern stand. Ile said In traveling through
the oil regions, thence on down through the coal
regiona and then among the immense Iron manu
factories of the Lehigh Valley, he could well see
why the people of Pennsylvania were deterrhined
to perpetuate that great system of Protection
upon which her Interests depended far their pros
perky. The Republican party was not ashamed
of Its principles. It craw led on Its belly to no
one. It did not quarrel about the policy of speak
ing out on the subject of Protection. It did not
say "we can't settle the question among our
selves, but we w 111 remit It to the . Congressional
Districts." But It Pointed to Its past record made
In elevating the condition of the vvorkingmen,
lifting up the down-trodden and oppressed,
and , legislating for the prosperity of the
country, and as it has fulfilled every promise In
the past It would go on In the next four years and
continue In the good work It bad commenced.
Ile urg6d the Importance of carrying the October
election. If Pennsylvania spoke In unmistakable
terms then of keeping the Republican party In
power, the result would be settled and there would
he little work required to be done In November.
He referred In complimentary to terms to our gal
lant enadidate for Governor and said he could en
dorse every word the General had said in his own
vindication, because he believed It to be true.
In rovertieg to the National canvass he said they
tell us wo want no more soldiers about the White
House; that we must paint no names of Union
victories upon our banners to remind the rebels of
our victories over them, and that the presence of
President Grant is a continual reminder to the
South of the triumph of the Nation In the rebel
lien, and therefore he Is distasteful to the ex•rebe Is
and must be removed. He remembered the time
when we went to the young men of the country
and appealed to them to go to the front and fight
our battles, end he hoped never to see the day
when the American people should decide that the
deeds of our noble armies should be forgotten.
lie referred to the Republicans who have switch.
ed off in the present campaign. When Lin c oln
Issued his Emancipation Proclamation we saw
them running away like partridges and hiding
under the 'eters, to protect themselves from tlt
Impending storm. When Johnson turned the whole
power of the Government against the Republican
party there were desertions then, but the party
did not knew %villa defeat was ; such a word was
not written upon Its banners, and it still marched
on to victory. Now, some cf our trusted leaders
have deserted us and they are surprised at
the few who follow them. They rn ale a mistake
le thinking themselves leaders of the people•
They were but pioneers sent out by the people in
advance of the main column of the party, nod
when a couple of these pioneers went down come
by-lane away from the front of the enemy, the
rank and file would not follow them, hut would
advance onward to the front and richt vu another
victory as of old.
We have not space to mention In detail the
speech of Gen. llartranft,witleh preceded that 01
Senator Wilson. Suffice it to say that he fear
lessly faced the charges that have been loirhal
against him and disproved every one 0 1 then , to
the complete satisfaction of his hearers. In the
evening, some one Interrupted him by Inquiring
"how about Forney?" lie answur W. 1 ,3 that
"This is a free country. Everybody has a
right to do as he chooses. If Colonel Forney is
not for me j be has a right to he against me. It is
Ida privilege, but I am going to he cieeted !"
This announcement was reedved with tumultuous
chterlog
Judge Russell, of NtasachusAt4, delivered a
speech, which was one of the soundest arguments
that we have ever listened to. Ile mentioned
some of the unscrupulous charges that have been
brought against President Grant. Most of these
were uttered by parties so Irresponsible that he
did not wish to offend his mouth by 'neatening
them, but he would consider one—that President
Grant was drunk at Harvard Commencement, on
a certain time and date. Ile was clad that the
time and place were mentiond. So often these
charges were made so vaguely that we could not
get at them. Ito was present at llurvard, and
with President Grant at that time, and he de
nounced the charge as false. l'obert C. Winthrop,
one of the most conservative men In Massachu
setts, was present, and he announced his haten
lion of supporting President Grant. and he would
not have done so, had the charge been true. He
handled Senator Sumner's charges with a master
hand and utterly refused them. •
TirE LETIIOII PRESBYTERY ANT) TIIE.
the late meeting of thin Presbytery,
held at, Bath on the 17th and 18th of this month,
resolutions were passed bearing against Sabbath
breaking and promiscuous dancing. The Sabbath
question had special reference to the running of
cars and working on railroads, and In machine
shops, and rolling mills, and at blast furnaces on
that day.
Rev. Mr. Wood, of Allentown, defended the fur
naces, showing that the running of them was a
work of neccssity,and that those who were engaged
in this iron business were men of Christian prin
ciple, whose piety could not be called in question,
nutty ithstanding some RAS Rations to the contrary.
Ile said that the matter had been abundantly
tested, and that thefurnaces could not be stopped
on Sunday without Involving the utterdestruction
of the iron business In this Valley. Ile referred
to \Vru. E. Dodge, and quoted from Prof. Osborne,
ke., in defense of his position.
Rev. Mr. Fulton, of C mequa, replied to Mr.

the Lord would not pour out a blessing upon them

Nehetnialts of this Presbytery stand up faithfully
for the Sabbath.
11ev. Mr. Dernelle said the earth was as thickly
populated centuries ago RR it is now, acid notwith
s.tanding the great need of iron then in the world,
God never permitted Ills people to make it on the
Sabbath. The motion . of iron furnaces on the
Sabbath was not a work t.f absolute necessity. lie
also denounced the running and repairing of cars
on that clay.
The Rev. Messrs. Footman, Belvllle, Bridgman,
and others partiffipated In the discussion : It wan
remarked that the bituminous coal fields in the
country were far more extensive than the anthra
cite. Why not use that and have no difficulty in
saving the Sabbath I The discussion was com
paratively brief and conducted in au excellent
spirit. The following was adopted ununitnous-
ly.
WIIEREAB, The due observance of the Sabbath
is essential alike to the intertsts of true prosperi
ty, mor.llty, and religion ; and,
%Vileness, The held committed to the care of
this Presbytery is largely occupied by those In
dustries In the promotion of which Sabbath labor
Is everywhere multiplied to an extended subver
sion of those interests—
Resolved, That the Sabbath is of God, and the
conception of Ills wisdom, the gift of Ills health
eenee, anti the requiretneut alike of ills purity of
love.
Resolved, That as a Presbytery we bear this
ample testimony against the violation of the Sab
bath by any labors nut required by a Scriptural
and higher necessity than the demands of ambi
tion and advancement.
Resolved, That while wo rejoice In the fact this'
the sanctity of the Sabbath of God Is more faith
fully maintained by some corporations of our
field than by those In other parts of our country,
yet in the Judgment of this Presbytery, 8 tbbath
labor still abounds to a degree condemned by
God's law,and detrimental to the best Interest of
man and he advancement of the cause of Christ.
Resolved, That we enjolh upon the members of
our church, and especially upon'the ministers and
elders, that In their life they maintain Invariably
the sacredness of God's day, and show their wil
lingness by every means to prevent the profana
tion of the same.
Tug coalition central State authorities are
using every unlawful and fraudulent means to de
feat the gallant statesman and Soldier, Gen. Hart
rinft, and to elect the traitor at heart, Charles R.
Backelew, who, If elected, would run the State
governmect In, the interests of the great railway
corporation, by which ho has been owned for years
past. On the Bth of October, Republicans, we
will show the world that Pennsylvania is on the
side of economical government, Is loyal In feeling
now as ever, is true In the great struggle of prin
ciple against corruption, and will vindicate her
high character among the States by the election of
Gen. John F. Hartrauft by an overwhelming ma
jority. Get out the entire Republican vote In Le
high county, and let Lehigh do better for Repub
licanism than she ever did before. Our county
ticket is the best ever offered to the people. As
one man, let ns rise up and bearthls election
through with unanimity and . a tremendous
majority. ••
IF your Republican neighbor hesitates about
voting at all on the Bth of October, convince him
by argument that his duty requires him to help
the canoe on In Pennsylvania now, more than It
ever did before. We aro confronted by a horde of
°dice-seekers and public depredators, marshalled
by Alex McClure, who must be put down, or in an
other year the whole State will ha overwhelmed
by debts and Mallon.
Anousn, Republicans, for your country's
sake eee that every Republican vote Is polled on
the Bth of October.
Tnit Young Men's Ilartrantt Club, of this
city, surpass the best in discipline and manage- ln,
menu.
. THE first thing to he attended to is to find
out where every Republican voter in yourdistrict,
township or ward resides, and get him out to the
polls on the Bth of October.
Ir. you hove a horse and carriage, drive
around and make every Republican voter promise
to go to the polls on le Bth of October, and see
that the promise is f Med.
Tins is the last week to work. Be up and
doing; Republicans, and let us poll In Lehigh
coniay, on the Bth day of October, the largest Re
pubhcan vote known In our history.

mansbura, Philadelphia, and other places were
In attendance, and In the proces , lon were a print
ing press, a blackAmlth shop, a carpenter shop
and other industrial representadons, on wagons
and In active operation. • Two extra trains co n 7
veyed the Invlneibles of Philadelphia to and from
the demonttration, and the whole affair was so
great a success that the Republican party may ho
proud of It. A previous engagement for the Slat-
Ington meeting prevented the Allentown Clubs
from participa'ing In the great occasion, but
without them It was a happy success.
AT SLATINOTON.—Thu Campaign Clubs of
city turned out and went to Slatington on
Saturday night, where a pale& and mass meedng
was held In conjunction with the Republican
Clubs and eltiz.ms of that place. Messrs. W. T.

A. Mcblenberg, of Allentown, discussed the
Issues of the canvass with elequence and force.
Mr. Haines Is one of the best stump speakers In
the State, received with loud indications
of appreciation. Time Republicans of Slatington

the " Liberal" E. More and C. Erdman were to

Editor Daily Chronicle Saturday evening
last, a Republican meeting was held at the Wig
wam, In this borough, attended by from 400 to 500
people, and I must say It was one of the most sat
isfactory meetings of the cAmpaign. It was ad
dressed by the lion. Henry O'Connor, of lowa,
who delivered one of the most able speeches I have
ever listened to, containing no abuse whatever of
the opposite party, hot arguing with plain, fair,
undeniable facts. Ito was willing to leave his
statements to a Jury of any twelve Democrats be
fore him as to their yuthfulness, and I noticed
quite a number present. Alter the meeting a man
of German descent and a Democrat, came to mo
and said: " That man spoke the truth. Youcau
count on mo for Grant, Wilson and Ilartranft, and
also on a number of my Meads, too." Mr.O'Cou

for one hour longer. Such spoechco maks votes.
