Meeting In the

The Democracy held a rousing meeting
in the Fifth Ward last evening. The
meeting was organized by the election of

Alex. Mcilwaine, an o!d resident oi
the ward, was the first speaker.
He spoke to his Democratic friends for
nearly two boors in a speech of great pow
er and eloquence, during which he was
enthusiastically cheered. In the language
of an enthusiastic Democratic "typo" who
heard h;m, his speech, like the advertise
mentii of the popular auction house, 01
which he is a member, was to the point,
and—solid.

ptl r. McDwaine in a short speech, which
waa well received. Mr. U. was a Bell
and Everett speaker in the last Presiden
tial campaign, but is now battling manful
ly in the ranks of the Democracy.
Mr. Smith was the next speaker. Mr.
S. has, we believe, not taken a very active
part in the campaign, and we feel sorry
that his private duties, have deterred him
from taking the stump at an earlier day
in the cause of the Democracy and its
candidates, as he ie. a speaker of far more
than ordinary ability. He was still ad
itteesing the meeting when we left, and
WWI greeted with loud applause.
The Abolition Demonstration
- - at Greensburg.
We are indebted to a friend for some
facts in regard to the Abolition demonstra
tion held at Greensburg on• Thursday last.
The most extensive preparations had been
made for a "big thing," and every device
resorted to in order to induce the
olitioniststo turn oat. Sisel , Butler,
fgham and others were announced as
speakers. And what was the result I By
actual count two thousand and seventy
men, women and children in the proces
sion, and one hundred and seventy ve
hicles I I And this in the quondam strong
hold of "old Westmoreland,"•with del—
egations' from Allegheny and a sprinkling
from Indiana, Fayette and Somerset
Alas for the thieving leaders of the Aboli
tion shoddy soldier-plundering party—the
honest masses of the party have deserted
them.
Speeches were made by Sigel, Noble,
Onelow and others. The true character
of the gathering may be fixed unmistakably
when we state that banners were earn id
bearing such inscriptions as these, "Let
the Union slide'! ---"The Union cannot ex.
it half free and half slave"—"The negro
is as good as the white man"—"General
igdelellan a traitor"—' `The Rnion of the
Stites fit a covenant with death and a
league with hell," and that three
cheers were given for Wendell Phillips,
Lloyd Garrison and men of their ilk, who
would sooner see the Union rent in ten
thousand fragments than that the people
of the South should have left them one
single vestige of their rights under the
Constitution.
The town was filled with people in pur
suit of their ordinary avocations. and the
sidewalks and windows were filled with
good, true and loyal men and women, re
luctant spectators of the disgraceful. ex
hibition, which could only have been
oldasing to Southern traitors and Northern
fanatics.
Whisky flowed quite freely during the
day, and the consequence was that the
shoddy contractors became boisterous, and
were severely handed by the true Union
men in numberless instances. Notwith
standing the herculean efforts to make the
meeting a "stunner," it proved to be a
most contemptib!e fizzle.
Tim GHOST —M r. Henderson has got
on his long looked for ghost apparatus,
from New Yolk, and hopes now to pro
duce his ghostship in better style. It will
be presented with all the improvements
0-night.
Ttie Lr
A 9 the election day draws near new evi
deuce of the desperation of the Abolition
crew, who, unfortunately for the country,
now held the reins of government, accu
mulate every means, hoWever low and
contemptible has been and will.yet be re
sorted to to carry the Slate for Curtin and
Co., on next Tuesday. The latest attempt
on the part of the satraps of the Govern
ment, to prevent a fair and free expres
sion at the ballot box was related to ne
yesterday. The Government, as the peo
ple know, is building a large war vessel
aecross the Monongahela, called the Man
ayunk. It appears the superintendent of
the work on the vessel it an ardent and an
unscrupulous friend ,f the Washington pow -
ere, and has, in obedience to instructions,
doubtless determined to discharge from
employment on the work all the men who
will not vote for Curtin. Our informant
upon learning this-fact, called upon the
superintendent to know if each was the
case, and upon-being informed that it wa3
true, told him that he would save him the
trouble of performing that duty in his
case, and resigned his position as
a "boss." Thus it will be seen that
to be a Democrat disqualifies a
man from even working upon a Gov
ernment vessel, and he is summarily
discharged, with the remark that he may
be honest in his views, but it is the 'result
of ignorance on his part. We understand
that a number of good and true Demo
crats
will follow the example of Mr. —,
and leave the department to look else
where for men to do its bidding and bar
ter principle for a mess of-pottage
BURGETTSTOWN DEMOCRATIC MEETING.
I —Our Democratic friends in the region
of Burgettstown complain that we
did not notice more folly the great gath
ering held by them a few days since. It
was impossible for us to be present, and
hence we could not do the noble, lion.
hearted Democracy of that region the
justice to which their patriotism and good
work entitled them. The delegation from
Findley township numbered over fourteen
hundred, preceded by forty young ladies
on horseback, dressed in red, white and
blue. A beautiful silk flag, purchased
in this city by Dr. Pollock, was
carried in the procession ; which was, by
actual count, fifty four minutes in passing
a given point. The procession marched
on foot, rode on horseback, and were con•
veyed in carriages and wagons. In one
of the wagons was an enormous hickory
tree, so tall that the "Union Leagues
were obliged to take down a banner which
they had stretched accross the street in
Clinton, bearing the names ( f "Curtin
and Agnew." After the removal of the
banner the Democratic boys gave the
Curtinites three cheers for their prompt
compliance with their wishes, and passed
on. We may mention that, a beautiful
banner was awarded to the lar A est dele
gation, which the Findley boys claim be
longs to them. It is estimated that there
were at least five thousand people present
at the meeting at Burgaratown. The
speaking watt good, and the Democracy o
that region will do its duty on Tuesday.
ST. MICHAEL'S THEOLOGICAL SENI I -

peal in this week's Catholic, in behalf of
St. Michael's Theological S, minary, in the
course of which he says : "The t . :eminary
has already given to the diocese fourteen
priests, of whom ten made the greater
part of their studies within their walls.
There are now in it thirty young men sub
jects of this diocese, more or less ad•
vanced in their studies, who give every
evider,ce of a vocation in the priesthood
I would remind you that the immense in
crease of the price of almost all the neces

support an institution of the kind. and
makes imperative extraordinary efforts in

Tnß DISPATO El AED TH E LI KM HORATIO
MING. —T E U:. patch of yesterday, is
sorely grieved civet the report of the
great Democratic gathering cn Allegheny
Common on Wedtitsdav la.t, En d very
unconrteously insinuates that the writer! f
that report was laboring under ••eertain
spirituous influences" which occaqiottly
cause men to see double. Without car
ing for the ungracious fling, we might with
equal propriety and truth charge the re
porters of the Dispatch with being rank
'copperheads"—for we are told that
these reptiles at certain seasons of the
year cannot see at all ; and if these gentle
mens' visions were so contracted that they
could discover only a few hundred people
on the ground, when there were thousands,
the inference is fair that so far from "see
ing double" they were as blind as bats,
or if they could see, their political prejudi
ces will not permit them to approximate
near the truth when estimating the nual
hers who attend Democratic meetings.
But let all this pass. Will the Dispatch
tell us by what rule of mathematical cal—
culation it found standing room for twenty
thousand people at the Sigel reception?
What "spirituous influences" enabled it to
see that number in the narrow confines of
Smithfield street ?" The meeting was large
we admit. Bat a pint measure will only
hold a pint, and 20,000 people cannot be
compressed into a space which will not
hold half the number. The Dispatch
should be careful nut to "fib" itself before
it charges others with so grievous a sin.
With regard to the questions of the Dis
patch as to who authorized Mr. Witte to
speak for Gen. McClellan, we respectfully
refer it to the eloquent Witte himself,
feeling assured that he will be able to an•
ewer the query.

Gen. Itragwo Army Reinforced

NEW YORK, October 9.—A Herald dis
patch, dated Washington, Bth, says : By
the latest advises from the South it ap
pears that. Bragg's army has been rein
forced since thd battle of Chickamauga by
the following troops: One division from
Richmond, commanded by Gen. Arnold
Elsy • one from Western Virginia, com
manded by General Sam Jones ; one
from Petersburg and Weldon, commanded
by Gen. Ransom; three rigades from
Florida, commanded by Gen. Howell
Cobb, and three famous batteries from
Lee's army, viz: Cutts, Blodgett's and
Walton's.
In addition, Bragg has his original
army, consisting of D. H. Hill's - and
Polk's corps, besides four divisions from
Mississippi and. Alabama, one diviaion
from Charleston, one division of Georgia
State troops, under Gen. Walker, one
division from East Tennessee, seven divi
Iliol3B from Lee's army, the Georgia State
militia under Gen. Wayne, 5,000 cavalry
under Gen. Pillow, 15,000 cavalry under
Gen. Wheeler, and thirty pieces of artil
lery, his whole force estimated at 170,000
It is now represented that Joe Johnston's
reserves at Rome, Resaca, Kingston,
Cartersville, and E:owli bridge, number
55.000.
The Herald has the following special.
dated Nashville, Cctober Bth :—Up to
this time we have no news of especial im
portance regarding the doings of either
our own forces or those of the enemy in
the neighborhood of Chattanooga, Rail
road communication has not been re
slimed. The damage to the Railroad is
greater than was at first supposed.
Information has been received which
goes to show that the enemy has divided
his mounted force engaged in the recent
raid, into several detachments, and these
again into minor ones, and that such de
tachod betide now infest the mountains
arid woods in those neighborhoods, there
by rendering common road travel danger
ous to other than strong military corn
mends.
'elegraphic communication was still in
.(r,-upted to day between here and Ste
venson, 41a. It is reported it will be 0.
K. again to-night. I saw a gentleman to.
day who wile made prisoner by the rebel
forces when they were in the neighbor
hocrl of Murfreesboro. Thie gentlemar
says that the rel.els intended to reach our
railroad line Borne two days sooner than
they did, but owing to uotorseen causes
and the detention incident to moving their
artillery, they were delayed and had, at
least to make extra efforts to get up in
time to cause their movements to be a
surprise and ff.( t their object.
He also says that the Rebels adrnitt,d
having failed to carry out to full success
their main design, and they destroyed the
railroad and bridges, as much to protect
their retreat, and for the Enke of doing
some mischief, us they did from any con.

111" OF THE Po - rosisi Octoter y --Dur
the last twenty four hours there have been
indications of a collis;on betwee n the twi,
armies, hut I doubt it any will speedily
occur. Our forces now at' the front
thought yesterday and the night before
that there was danger of an attack and
made preparations to meet it, but quiet
has prevailed since. The report tele
graphed to the press from Washing. on
that a rebel brigade occupied a position
north of the {twins, is incorrec. Out
forces picket the entire north batik f
river to its coLfluence with the Rappahan
nock, and a single rebel brigade or (kir
ion would necessarily bring on a cot Act.
The army has been paid off to Septem
ber Ist. The beet feeling prevails in the
army, and re enlistments tor two years are
going on rapidly. and f,lfy two thirds of
the army of the Potomac wtil re-enlist.
The following is to the Richmond Eu'
aminer of the tith Oc
tober it —The report that Meade had sent
two of hi. army corps to Roseeratis, and
that the enemy were preparing to fall
back, is contradict Ad. Our scouts say
that but one corps was sent to Rosecrans,
and there were no indications of falling
back.
Sr. Lode, October 9. —The Democrat's
Leavenworth specials report that intelli•
gence has reached Fort Scott of a threaten
ed attack uu Fort Smith. (len. Blunt left
the former poet for the latter on Sunday
last. The rebel General Cobell, with
about ten thousand of Cooper's force. had
crossed the Arkansas river east of Forth
Smith, and on the Ist joined Coffey at
Crookin Prairie, Mo., determined to make
a raid into Kansas or Missouri. On the
receipt of this information all the cavalry
in the Kansas district and a battery were
sent to Fort Scott. A letter from Fort
Scott, dated the 7th, says : Lieut. Tap—
pan, of Blunt's staff, had arrived. He re
ports that all the staff and body guard had
been captured ; also, that the command
under Lieut. Pond, at Barton Spring.
Blunt had gotten ten miles away, but it is
uncertain whether he had escaped. The
rebels are under Quantrell, Hunter and
Gordon, and were moving towards Fort
Scott, but there was no danger of that post
being taken, it being abundantly strong
to resist attack.
ST Louis, Oct. 9.—The Democrat's
Vicksburg special of the 30th says :—Joe
Johnston is at Canton,Miss., with 15.000
troops, his supposed esign being to pre
vent reinforcements going to Rosecrane.
Gen. Stephen D. Lee hag 4,000 rebel env

of thanksgiving.
Sr. Louts, Oct. 9 .—Headquarters here
have received information of Coffee and
Shelby's raid into central Missouri from
Warsaw. They moved North east, with
the suspected design of striking the Pa.
cific Railroad at Laramie bridge, to burn
that structure and destroy the road. Gen.
Grown, commanding the Central District,
was at Clinton, Henry county, yesterday,
in pursuit of the rebels, also a force mov•
ing up from Springfield, another from Le.
banon, which will press the enemy so
closely, that they can hardly do much
mischief. Gen. Totten left here last night
for Jefferson City, to take command of e.
portion of the force intended to meet the
rebels.
NEW YORK, October 9 —A. Tribune ex
tra says the Government has advices from
Chattanoog a to the 6th. On the sth the
rebel batteries opened on our position, at
a range of 8 and 2 1-10th miles. A dis
patch from Rosecrans' headquarters, dated
the 6th, says he had not been injured by
the rebel batteries yesterday. Other dis
Patches show the impregnable position of
Rosecrans. No official information of the

pontoon bridges over the Tennessee had
been carried away. Telegraphic commu
nication has been restored between Nash

re roposed to state
here. By this time therebel cavalry will
be back south of the Tennessee river, and
from the preparations to keep open com
munication with Chattanooga, it is not be
i lieved that they will run the risk of pene
trating so. far within our lines.
Gen. Hooker, who as was published a
few days since as being at Nashville. has
left that place but not to command Burn
sides' forces as lately intimated. His po
sition is entirely separate and independent;
on the whole the officials here seem to be
well pleased with the situation of Rose
crane' ar.ny. The day is now past for the
rebels to crown Chickamauga with what
might possibly have ben a legiti
mate success. East Tennesee in forever
ours.
PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 9.—Jay Cook, sub
scription agent., reports the sale of $1,776,-
705. 5-20's, on Friday, and the sales for
the week will probably reach ten millions.
The large European orders which are
daily arriving render it of the highest im
portance to those who contemplate using,
these bonds as an investment, or as aba
sis for banking, that orders should be
promptly forwarded and filled. The
Eastern cities and towns are subscribing
largely in this view, and for purposes
above stated, and it is hoped that the
West will also respond as generously as in
the early part of the year.
Active and efficient agents are about to
canvass the several Western States to ex
plain the organization and working of
National banking assoctations, many of
which are in ct nt.mp'ation. Mr. Cooke's
p.imphlet divests the system of every diffi
culty, as all questions which might arise
are plainly answ,red, and full explana
tions given. The first edition is already
exhausted, and the second is in press, end

latest dispatches—which are to the even

relative to the eitnation in the locality of
Chattanooga, all of them refer entirely to
military details; the o`-her dispatches,

NEW YORK, Oct. 9.—The Tribune says:
If we can trust intellligence from Rich
mond, they are not only improving on pro
viding Bragg with reinforcements, but are
also sending him large siege material.
During the last two weeks guns of extra
ordinary size and range have been sent to
him, it is thought, for the purpose of erect.
ing batteries on Lookout Mountain, which
is said to be in possession of the advance
guard of the rebels. It is thought if these
batteries reach Chattanooga, they would
make the place untenable.
New YORK, Oct. 9.—The transport
Carlow, from Charleston Bar, on the
morning of thh 6th, left Port Royal on

work but the Navy is quiet.
The Baltimore .American's correspon
dent, dating on the evening of the 6th,
states that all is quiet beyond occasional
firing from the rebel forts. Gilmore's
preparations are nearly completed, and a-
live operations will soon be commenced.
