The Slass Meeting. - The great Mass Meeting held in this place on Saturday last, did not accomplish the ob- jrct for wh.iv.-h it assembled, it we under hand concert of actioo, peace and harmony. The meeting was called br the Commii8 eioners of the Coonty for the purpose of ta king s.ction en a proposition contained in the toijawinji resolution, wljicb passed at a meeting held m this place on the 16ih nil : That the Commissioners of this county be requested to offer a bounty of twenty -five, dollars to be paid out of the County Treas ury to each and every person enlisting in the http Company, ta be raised in this coon ty, under the late requisition, and that a committee of three be appointed to wait vpon the Commissioners for this purpose." Thus it will be seen that the meeting was called for the purpose of taking into con fiderst'.ioo the raiding or paying of a bounty to Ins nev lompmy under the first call. - But it s" happened that two companies were raised on that cull; whether they have both been accepted on the first call, we are un informed, tut 'think not. This being the f-tae of affairs, bosh companies looked for ! . ' and claimed a boorrty, more particularly on I ... ' accent of its hav.ng been promised them, j in u:n goon laun, ana tney Having enlisted with that understanding. When the Com iniiorjers gae their attention to more 'thin ore company, they placed themselves i i such a condition that- they were in ail justice obliged tj recognize every volunteer, who has left t!il county, as equally entitled to a bounty. As we said- before th real object of the meeting was to agree upon fotne bounty for the new cnmpiny which was about being formed when the above reso lution was adopted. Had this meeting been confined to the re 'I object, tbe result would bavf! teen different, and all passed off with mnrf harmony and concert of action. The proposition made by the Commissioners, whea we take into consideration the pay ing of all the volunieers Irom this county an ! equal sum oo of the bounty, was, in its :rnoant, (55;CC0) entirely too small, accord- ! ing to our judgment. -There are, to e'ay, about 670 volunteers in the army from this county; and another company forming, wr 'rch wifl soon be ready io leave. We havi' uo dfsobtbut what the Commissioners wen; v. ell meaning in their proposition, I oth as to the amount and tbe manner by which they stood ready to appropriate it. -As (. the authority or right of the Commts pioo sM to appropriate money in this way we t re not the judge. The meeting, as as tmo!ed hereon Satnrday, said . the county Commissioners were justifiable, and would be upheld in making such an appropriation, r-.fil fcilil inn 1 nmmicfiinttdrj cn.in tA Ma, - sue a different course, holding that if they made au appropriatiori. other than the wav ihey proposed to make it, they would - be come responsible for that money.. We no tice that other cooniies have appropriated rnH ej to volunteers as a bounty, but if ney nave tione wrong, acted without au ihoiity, that ii not the tightest reason we -hould i'o the same. Berks coanty has appropriated $30,000. We can't see that mere would be aoy difficulty in this coonty rim me uommisioners autnonze the pay in? of a suitable bounty. out of the Treasury taou: volunteers. Who ore Exempt ? .The question of who are and . who are rot sut j-ct to a draft is bejng so freely dis cosed by those persons who are not famil iar wi'h the laws on the subject.

The meeting was organized at 1 o'clock P. M., by selecting lion. Stephen Baldv to act as President. On motion of Robert F.

John, in order to bring the subject properly before the myelin;,-a committee consisting of Robert F. Clark, Col. L. L. Tate, David Lovvenburg, II. B.

McKelvy aD-i John Sharplesa, were appointed by the Obair to wait upon the County Commissioners at their cf5ce and repvrt to them the action of this meeting. , During the absence of the Committee Col. L. L.

This created quite a sensation. On entering tbe Court House and order being again restored, the Committee waiting upon the Commissioners reported that those dig nified officials had received them TPry cava lierly, that they paid no attention to the res olutions adopted ly this meeting, lut in stead sent up their proposition which was as fjllows : It is suggested by the Commissioners of Columbia county, that is cae this meeting determine that an amount of money not ex ceeding Five Thousand Dullara from he county fund be given to the Volunteers from this county, that they can appropriate frcin the said fund, legally, only in one of two ways: First, that they be indemnified by Responsible party or parties, in a bond, that in case the Legislature d not legalize the appropriation, the money shall be refunded to the county. Second: That the money this meeting shall resolve upon giving, be placed in tbe hands, and under the control, of the B-iard of Kelief.'to be equitably ap portioned by them among the lam Hies and nearest of kin of the Volunteers who were citizens of the county at the time of volun teering and who have joined companies or parts of companies going from the county. And resolved further, that the above action and sum of money proposed to be appropri ated from the public funds of the County ol Columbia is done with the view of encour eging enlistments by volunteering to serve in the army of our Government and when cur county's quota is full in all requisitions that we shall be exempt from a Draft. , li- Patto.v, Wm.

Artillekij t. Sinsnlar Accident. Mr Editok: On Tuesday of the 5th inst., Petkr Wjle, of Franklin township, Ca bon county, who has lately spent a portion of his time in the vicinity of MifSin villa, Co lumbia county, as a welb dinner, went into the Well of R. L. Porter, in that village, lor ihe purpose of removing the usual cios timbers left in the process of wallirs up. He had descended and removed the timber . ., , . , . . . . io me oepm oi eighteen teel, when, lule sianding on one of them, the wall j-ave way, near his knees, and closing in fron all fides, at the same time, completely envel oped him in a mass of stone, gravel, &c. and closing the Well from his feet upwards, to within four feet of the surface of the ground, and at the same time leavins an open space of ten or twelve feet from his feet to the bottom of the Well. The accident occurred about two o'c'ock, P. M , and abont eleven in the evenin his friends succeeded in removing the rubbish and delivering bim from his perilous situ ation, and to their great surprise entirely uninjured save a little exhaustion. The vV'ell was dug and walled sometime last ! " i"if i I'ui.uwi mmuirieu, l ue inilT If IU -, the Wall was observed by C. H.

Democrat. - Repnblicaji. Friendship forlheWorkinscian. It is freed in the mind df every working man in ifiia country, how; in, I860, they were told by Republican orators, that they were the peculiar and only friends of the workingman. They remember how "they were foretold of a period of unheard of pros PentV. Of Deaca anil n!nlr. which in j . - . r " ! result a8 a necessary consequence of the t e,ec,n of Abraham Lincoln to the Presi- dency. Nor is it forgotten that when the direful times that are upon us at present, were told by Democrats, how they were held up by ridicule and scorn, as attempting by false statement to operate on the fears of the ppople. With what virtuous indig nation did they deny the charge brought against.them, that theironly object was the negro, and' that in schemes of fanciful phi lanthrophy for his benefit, they would sac rifice not only the in'erests of the working men f ihe country, but the country itself. Did ihe Republicans in i860 tell one single truth ? Did ihey show any political foresight whatever ? The history of the times affords the rpply. They have not only fhnmefnlly betrayed the people in the rast, but apparently not ealisfied with hav ing brought upon the country a roost deso lating war in the Snnth, it would appear as if ihey desired to breed destruction in the Nor h. Under the policy inaugurated by them the country i being flooded with negroes, who in mp.ny places woncing at the rate of twenty-five cents per day, are driving the free white laboring men out of employment. More than this by continual laudations of negroes, the niggers themselves in many places are crowing arrogant, impertinent, and insulting to while men, and white wo men. This has induced riots in Cincinnati, Toledo and lately a very serious riot in Brooklyn. Not only has the Republican parly in augurated a policy that has produced thee results, but they are" now erdeavoring by orsanizi--g the negroes into secret societies, to put them in such a position as to contin ue their arrogant and insulting behavior to ward white women and white men, and by armed lorce, to place themselves in ruin on? competition with the free white laborer of the North.

At that time. (1842), he was a Democratic Represenla tive Irom Bradford county in the House of Representatives, and although a young man held a leading position in that body. Subsequently he has practiced his profes sion in Bradford and adjoining counties, and has been for many years the leading lawyer of ihe Towanda bar. When David Wilmol was first elecled President Judge, the Democracy snnported Mr. Ei.well, who madd an excel ent run, and it was the full conviction of hi friends', that he would have been elected, even in that slrong Republican District, if his name had been introduced into the canvass at an ear'ier date.

It is ihe bonnden duty of every man lo 'discourage lawlessness of every kind. When we see mobs in our streets, we bein to apprehend the danger which may pio ceed from disrespect to law. When we theorize abont the country am! the govern ment, we do not appreciate the persona! relations which every man and every fam ily sustains to the Constitution and the staiues which are under it, the law of the land. Nor when mobs act in great excite ments in favor of the views which rash men may entertain, do they often forsee the time which may come as the very con sequence of lhat lawlessness, when mobs may make havoc of their own interests. There are not a few who in ..reasonina about the Constitution and the laws adopi the theory that a great wrong, like the Southern rebellion, justifies an abandon ment of Constitution and law for its sap pression. The theory is plausible, and it leads some men to the extent of calling any man a traitor who pleads the Constitution as a reason against any efforts or measures lo put down gigantic evil. But the same 1 Irom the employment ol negroes, as from the ondrct of negroes and their political friends. Thus (ar we see no evidence that ihey have been in any instance instigated by special political intrigue or management, but they have apparently growu out of the fact that a portion of the colored population hol.l their hoads much higher than hereto fore, and claim not only equality but some times a degree of superiori y which lead to unpleasant feeling and colli.-ons In fact, the colored men elbow their way with considerab l ronahness toward the equality which is claimed for them by noisy politi cians. The mehoJa ol avoiding these collisions in the future are two. In the first place, the laws mnst be carefully and thoroughly administered. The black man, as the de pendent race, entitled to protection, mui be protected against every tyranny of indi viduals, and especially against the mob spirit which grows out of radicalism In the second place, the friends of the black man should avoid all encouragement to ward the idea of equality. and should epec ially inculcate the doctrine of the old West minister Cah-chism, once the favoriie doc trine ol New England, which councelled the pre-ervation ol the "places and relarons belonging to all men as superiors inferior and equals."
