' ' :. I advert to these things,- fellow c!tizen; with a view (o call -your anentton to the drift of the whole policy of the Republican jarty 'with reference lo the Sooth, for they ,.. claim, yon know, that .their object is to re atore the Union, that tbej are the Union par- ty ; and yet every' measnre of their from tbe commencement of this admini.'tration has bepn to drive off and repel he South from the UniOb. Do yoa be'ieve, nen, that " they want this Union restored as it was? ObT no. n Indeed they now acknowledge that they do not want the Union as ii ' was -' Nay more I believe thai all the leaders f , the Republican party, and perhaps tbe fol lower? too, to day admi' and 'declare that ihey will not have the.; Union as it . wa.

But in addition to the measures to which I have called your attention there is the universal emancipation proclamation. I . cannot call it a law, thouzh it is one of Mr. occupy your time i discus'ing. .. It is. in 1 the nature of a confiscation statute, and in addition to that feature it' pledges th whole power of the army and navy of the United States, not for the restoration of the Union, but for thepntting down of this institution of the South. ' Beides this there is also Mr. Lincoln's reiebra:edAmne9!y proclamation in which "r "he says to the people of the South "if you . chocsa to take an oath to support my eman- :lnaiinn Ttrnrt mat inn nnrl all ftiHaf o m a n .cipation proclamations that I may think proper to issne and all the laws of Conaress ' in regard: to slavery, too maf come back into the Union, and whert one-tenth of your ' rtumbef ita anj State eaaM" have'iaken this -r ocaIied 'iron-clad' oaib, iiheyr-hali be ? !q;heJ with rjh-e po?r to govern the olhv er nine-tenths ; then you may organize-' a State government " And this is baid to be .fnr the porpose ot aiuing the people of the focih in inangorating republican covern t.ar.ts in their several States !

M't-rt'II OF ' ; HON. PAUL LEIDY, OF MONTPCR rorsTy, AT BLOOMS BURG, FRIDAY EVENING SEPT. 30. 1&64. . Reported ly D F Murphy Fellow CiTrzeN- : " Union-savprs"' ! ,c Union savers "! Democrats, look arout? I yoo amonglhts crowd and as you point lo a Republican bere, and:thrre, a:tu lUere, recollect ihat ten years ajjo, eiht years 'aa, four years aoj ihat Republic n was scorn fully pointing his finder at you and d-nou',-cina you as"a " Union-taverr.! And wny was this epithet so scornfully applied to all Democrats who dared to advocate the prin ciples of the Democratic pirty ? They ad vocated the'principles ot ihni party as foun ded aud based upon the Coniiintioii of the United States, the bond of ihi- Union ; and it was for this reason and this alone tiat we were then pointed at and hi.it down as UiitOM-savers". When we talked io them about the danger of producing a diruotiou hot the "Union 6y the adop'ion of the doc trines wnicn Ihey advocated, they paid io us, the South cannot be kicked out of tbe Union; let Ihem eo off, what do we want with the South'? This was ihe language ot Re publicanism in its ear!iet days. To-r.iiht the same it.dividnala, withon! a j par.ticle ol-change of principle, or honesty, I are pointing at us as ' L.opj err;ea Is," "n,. unionists,7' "Sympathizers with Scesio'i " 'Traitors to our Country". And why? Be cause we stand her . now advoca-ina the same principles, which, we a ivocaied len, etht, six, lour years ao, the principle of the Constitution of the United State which is the bond of the Uion. ihe onlv t"!ii that holds together !he-e S'ate and forms us a iation. a-k t!iem to point to a single principle of the Democra tc partj to-day that was not advocated ty us when we were stigmatized as Unioii-savers". L-i them point to a single characeri-i:e of our party which has been changed in thai tim. Wby men are we now stiitmatized as 'Cop perheads" and '-traiiois'' and "dHunioriMt" and "sy mpaihizers with eecension" and re bellion"? We sympathize with ret.eihon ! we who. during our whole lives and our forefathers before vs. a Democra's hive ever advocated a strict and riid adherence to tbe'Constitntion of the United S-ates-m all its parts, in all its principle. We dis union's !. we who have denounced eectio i alism of every character aud in every form, sec:ionalim of ihe North and ecwona isro cf the South we' who have proclaim ed that Abolition aid .Secession were twin brothers we who have fought-them both from Ihe days of Jackson down ',o this lime, we disunionists ! Where i the man wno in day light dare ufer such a charge against hU fellow citizen whom he has known dnr ir.g this whole DerioJ and whom he has denounced for tee very things? If such a mm does not blush, it is because he has no shame.., , . . . , Fillow citizens why are we . met here :o-niaht ? We bare not met here to enconr age rebellion ; we have not met here to al vocate secession , we have not met here to'dj anything against the interest of this Uninu. No man entertains such a suspi cion ;and the man wboot ers such acharge does not believe it and know that lie otters falsehood wh"r he says it.

Oil Friday Iat the first Democratic meet- nig of the carnpatati in this county was held at Orangeville. The weather was not ihe most favorable, but there was a good turn- out of the Democracy from nearly ad parts r .i i i t. i o me uj'jier cuu ui our cvuni). ji it'uc.i old fashioned like to see four and six hor.-e teams come in, loaded with the stalwart Democracy, hickory irees, flags, and ban ners, ar.d with martial music playing. The town seemed to be well filled with people, who had been gathering in during the en tire fore part ol ihe day. The meeting was organized in a grove near lown, about two o'clock in the afternoon, by appointing Hon. Jacob Evans, of Greetiwood, Presi dent, assisted by some dozen or more Vice I'resident3: and a couple of Secretaries. Speeches were delivered by the following gen: le.-nea : Hon. Robert R. Little, of Wy oming, Hon. Paul Leidv, of Dinville, and Thomas Chaifant, esq., of the Danville Li teU$enter. The Hon. Charles 11. Bccka Lew being present was called on, but on excising himself from making a regular speech, offered a few remarks which were well received. The meeting adjourned by voting thanks to the speakers, and giving three hearty cheers lot . McClellan and Pexelctok. Good Appointments. We learn that among the Commissioners appointed by Gov.Curtin, under the ac: of Assembly al lowing the soldiers to vote, is our young and patriotic Iriead, Col. Wicllincton II Est, of this county. His duly is to visit the Army of the Potomac, carry out the in strnctions of ihe act of Assembly, which is plain as to what is required of the commis sioners. Want of space forbids us men tioning any more cl the appointments. The present conduct of the Executive is an assurance that be at leas' is desirous of pro tecting the rights of ihe citizen. So far as we .know the commissioners appointed are Democratic old soldiers. - ' '-The Speeches published in today's Star have crowded out our v,suaJ variety of tdi torial and selected matter. Abolition Merlins ' The great Abolition Mass Meeting an- nounced by flaming hand-bills and through the JicvuWcan, to be held at this place ott Thursday last, turned out a, perfect fizzle I The meeting tons not held- for want of an audience. The fiilhul of this" place hid made every preparation necesary to ceive a large gathering of people from the surrounding country. They represented that they had sufficient reason to be'ieve there would be a lremendo;us oot-ponring of the people thronghout ihe 'counly, and especi ally from that part where Mr. Lincoln's "army'' has been holding tamp meetings for the last month or more ; but we think every hones, man in town will bea' us out in say ing, that there was not over two dozen people Irom the country, who had come to. attend, ihe great Aboli'inn show 1 The poor fellows kept holed during the after-part of the day, when they were fully satisfied that the mast had nor would nof arrive, and those who did venture to remain out, went round like a strange yearling pop, feeling guilty of having stolen something for which his master might inflict opon him a severe punishment. The speaking material present was in abundance, but may not be considered of the first quality. There was a frio of im ported orators holding themselves in readi ness the whole day. patiently awating the arrival of-thoe large delegation from the "upper end of the counly," where those conversions, " so much talked of by th'e Abolitionists, should have been made, that they migh. have an opportnnity to deal out some advice to the "new converts" in the shape of Abolition exhortation. ' 3at how disappointed! The day passed without a meeting, which tells hard against Abolition ism in this county. Night came on, the ''gong" was brought I out, held in some Union Leagu-r'e hand, and thumped until we shoold have thought all creation were aronsed, for the purpose of getting the populace of the town together at their place of holding meetings, in Mar ket street.- After considerable noise, some thing over a corporal's gnard came together, composed of men, women, girls and imper tinent boys. The mee'ing being organized. Col Albright, of Carbon, was brought for ward. He occupied the . attention of his hearers some fifteen or twenty minutes, but said nothing to his own credit as a man of veracity, nor told ihem any.thing of impor tance. He is a Colonel in the pay of Lincoln. Next Mr. rain stepped in, took possession of the enlire proceedings, and stormed away until nearly all the audience left for protec tion from the rain. The storm having final ly abated, the slim and drenched andience once more relumed and resumed . their places in front of the speaker's stand. At this stage cf the proceedings, Ulysses Mercnr, the Abolition Candida e for Con gress, in his dis rict, was Introduced. He produced some very lame and weak argu ment to show wby Mr. Lincoln should te re-elected, and that it was very necessary to have a Congress to sustain him. This was one s'one for Lincoln and two lor him self. He thought Lincoln had not had a fair trial, and that the people should not become disheartened, although the war had lasted nearly four years, the Federal arms had accomplished much, and was now in a lair way of crcshing the rebellion ; but the people "couldn't see it" as he would they should. They have heard enough, of soch balderdash, all to no purpose. I his kind I OI ar2orneni. migtit snu a Bradlord county j Abolition crowd, but it will not set well on j the stomachs of the Colombia county peo- pie. " Useless" Mercur, as his mother ned j to ca'l him, is a Bradlord Counly Judge and political protege of Dave Wilmot. He is I ,he man 10 " Con- lion bill. irusis me Kind ol support he means to give Lincoln, when he said it was necessary io have a Congress that would sustain the President. This is the aid Lin coln desires for bis assistance, in conduct ing the war for the purpose he has declared 'it shall be carried on the "abandonment j. , avery." Now Lincoln's purpose of the I war is lo abolish slaverv. while Davis' oh- j . c (o Iab,ish a Southern Confederacy ) (of himse,f &nd :, Lir,coin cannot efftfCl hi. , . cl of & d;g.olutio . wha, h ' J South demand. And this Judge Mercur candidate for Congress, proposes to assist Lincoln in this scheme, which will most undoubtedly destroy the Union. Lincoln & Co. are the original disunionists tbey were the first men to advocate secession in and out of Congress, and to-day are doing all in their power to bring about their long avowed and determined object, the absolute abolishment of ihe institution of slavery. With a few remarks from some other gen lleman, the gr?nd fizzle ended, without giv ing three cheers for Mr. Lincoln or any of his political generals. Shoddy is under par in this counly! The Democracy will do well in this county on the Congressional ques tion. The Abolitionists Hort. The Demo cratic meeting held at this place on Friday evening last, caused the Abolitionists to flutter about for tbe last two or three days most terribly. There were several of these Loyal Leaguers present, who heard more stubborn fids in the short space ol time ihey remained, than they ever before heard, probabiy, in their lives. Some of the cler gy, who, as a general thing, are most prominent in oj ganizirg Leagues, were in the outer skirts of the andience. They, too, wished to know what Lincoln had done and tchnt he had not done I They heard. Pee John alias Thomas Dokn was not observed in the crowd, but rumor has it, that, te was seen close by, in the barber ifutp being Jan ncJby the proprietor of the establishment! It can't be possible that the presence of so large a meeting, so ably addressed, caused Mr. Dunn to faint. Rumor also has it, that he went into said shop for the purpose of giving Mr. B some consolation, who is an ardent member of Mr. Dunn's party, and an American citizen of African descent. The lightning struck them hard, for tbey were seen tumbling and beard squealing in ! all directions ! ' A CARD. II.

The Democracy ot Bloomsburj held a meeting at the Conrt House on Friday evening las, which wa largely attended,' considering that it was n evening meeting.' The orgaization was effected by the sp-' pointment of the following officers, viz:' - President ELI AS DKITER1CK, ESQ. - Vive Presidents Col. Lvi L. Tate. Jas. Freeze, Hnah D. McBride, Levi Coi. Joho Sr ipmsn, Jrnb Ever. John Kr-sl-ir,'J,jha C Robbins, Dr. H. W. McReynolds J Secre!aries--W. H. Jacoby, David Low enberg, Wm H. Shoemaker. The meeting being fully organized tD following gentlemen.made speeches: Hon, Robert R Little, of 'Wyoming, Hon. Paul Leidy, of Danvill-, Hon. C. R. Buckilew, and Thomas C ha'fant, Esq., of the DanctHa Intelligencer. The addresses of Messrs. Littlsi and Li ly will appear in the columns of to day's Stsr The speeches were received with a good deal of enthusiasm. "All pa ed off pleasantly ; the meeting adjourning at a late hoir with three cheers for oar Presidential candidates, McClellan arl Pendleinn , and three cheers for the gei tlemen who delivered addresses. Democratic Meitiso The 6rt.Dm cratic meeting of the) campaign in this county ws he'd in Orangeville on F'idaf lat The attendance was large; delega tions from nearly all par!s of the upper enJy of the county were present. Many of thar Opposition were there, who went away f. vorat ly impreed with the speeches, and thinkinz seriously tha! a change was abso lutely necessary. The argument presented by onr speakers was convincing, and plain that all who heard it could not go away without lully nndertan ding it. Th people will not agree lo hava four years more of misrole and ruination They ara sick. and tired of these infernal drafts, which are sure to stick to them until all their money is gone, after which their lives ar bound to be in jeopardy if ihey elect Lin coln. Four years more war which we aw sure to have if Lincoln is re-elected, will conscript ever man into the service who is capable of bearing arms, and tax the wholr country to soch an extent that il cannot bar met. Will yoo vote lor this 1 . Do yoo want again and again to run tbe street with a nbscription in your, hand begging for money to exempt you Irora the draft? How long can the poorer classes stand this t They are now exhausted, and think of four years more war with increasing conscrip tion ! Where is there one labsring rasa who wishes to go through with what ha has endured the last four years in the shape of conscription taxes, fo keep out of the draft, together with a heavy daty on every article he consumes in his family, and wages siof correspondingly high ? These things are bound to continue if you remain ' under Lin coin's administration. The only' alternate is to vote for George B. McClellan, and make bim our next President, thus rid yourselves of all the "artificial weights" end once more be tree men, enjoying ther blessings of constitutional liberty, as always has been a white man's privilege onder Democratic rnte. The people are awake to the true condi'ion of off ait $t and with a keen eye and a fixed determination they will en deavor to cast oil the shackles that havs been thus unwarrantably placed on them, and are being every day riveted tighter audi tighter on the American people. They can not and milt not endurt such liberty any longer than the fourth of March next I The priten doors will then be opened. Over two millions four hundred thous and men have entered tbe army since the) beginning ot the war. The impending draft will swell the number to three milk ions. Yet with all these brave and gallant men, Mr. Lincoln's fatal and miserable policy ba failed to accomplish the pretend ed object for which the war was begun. How many more will it takto finish, it upon the basis of the "abandonment of slavery," which the President says is now" the only condition of peace !
