meeting, was held on Saturday last at

vit r' Geary Club, of Penn township. Some
three hundred persons were present. The
meeting was ably addressed by Messrs. Mc
Enaily, Tate and Fulford of Clearfield,
Mr. Rissof Curwensville, and John Rus

pared for the occasion, was also freely par
taken of by those present.
Barn Burnt. On Friday night, Sept.
;h. at about 11 o'clock, the barn of Stacy
W. Thompson of Boggs township, was
lurnt to the ground, together with one
horse and a lot of grain, hay, harness, bug
fry, etc. The loss is about two thousand
dollars. The fire was evidently the work of
an incendiary, for the purpose of plunder,
as, during the burning of the barn, an at
tempt was made to rob Mr. Thompson's
store the thief having broken into the back
room, but failed to get into the store-roem,
on account of the communicating door being
locked.
A Daring Bank Robbert. On Satur
day afternoon Sept. 8th, a daring robbery
was committed on the First National Bank
of Clearfield, by Enos Bloom and Antis
Bloom, of Pike township, and Cortes Er
hard, of Knox township, this county. The
officer in attendance having just parsed in
to the Directors' room, and upon turning a
round observed some one pass out of the
front door stealthily, hastened into the
banking room, when he discovered the rob
bery by some bank bills bei ng displaced.
Pursuit was made at once, and Erhard cap
tured within a few squares of the bank.
Just before Erhard was overtaken he was
observed to throw something over a fence
and into a lot, which, on being picked up,
proved to be $90, the money he had taken
whereupon he was lodged in jail. Accord
ing to Erhard' a statement, afterwards, the
robbery was preconcerted-that Antis Bloom
entered the bank just as the bank officer
... . , - . t 31 -
waikea into tne directors room du leaning
over the counter succeeded in getting hold
of a package of money without being detect
ed, which;- ob being counted by the party
just outside the boroughJimUsPed to
contain $250 that having been thus suc
cessful without detection they concluded to
make another "haul." and that he, Erhard,
accordingly entered the bank as in the first
instance and made a "grab," and then
made off as speedily as possible ; but was ap
prehended in the mannner above stated.
The two Blooms were also arrested and
ged in jail on Tuesday forenoon.
San Francisco.

didates, at the recent election, was 1,700
majority.
Why Mr. Stanton does not Leave
the Cabinet. The X. Y. Heralds corre
spondent states that the reason why Mr.
Stanton does not leave the Cabinet is : that
Win. T. Smithson, a wealthy Washington
city banker, who was arreted early in 1863
by order of the War Department, and con
fined in the old Capitol prison, on a charge
of corresponding with the rebels and deal
ing in Confederate curreucy,and subsequent
ly convicted by military commission, sen
tenced to ten 3rear's imprisonment in the
Albany penitentiary, but after the lapse of
a year pardoned by Mr. Lincoln, has insti-
tuted proceedings against Mr. Stanton, lay
ing his damages at $30,000, The defense
will rely mainly on the Act of Congress in
demnifying certain officers of the Govern
ment for acts done in their official capacity to
further the suppression of the rebellion, and
as this case will test the constitutionality of
the Act in question, it has Leen considered
that the defence can be better conducted by
Mr. Stanton retaining his official portion.
The Attorney General has been directed t
appear for and defend the Secretary of War,
and that officer is now engaged in prepa
ring answers to the declarations of the complainant.

THE PHILADELPHIA CONVENTION.
The Southern Union men assembled in
Philadelphia, on September 3d, agreeably
to the call issued. Thomas J. Durant, of
Louisiana, was the temporary Chairman.
Hon. James Speed, of Kentucky, late U.S.
Attorney General, was chosen as permanent
I resident. A large number of Vice-Presidents
and Secretaries were also appointed.
The entire proceedings were harmonious,
and the enthusiasm that prevailed was un
precedented. Besides the Southern delegates, large
numbers from every northern State were in
the city, and a convention of Northern U
nionists was also organized, of which Gov.
Curtin was chosen temporary Chairman. A
Vice President from each of the States in
attendance, and seven Secretaries were also
chosen. Gen. Burnside then offered a res
olution that the gentlemen selected as tem
porary officers, should constitute the officers
of the permanent organization ; which was
onanimously adopted.
On Tuesday evening a general Mass meet
ing was held at the Union League House,
on Broad Street, which has not been equal
ed by any demonstration in this country.
The visit of Lafayette, forty-two years
ago, was the only event claimed to bear any
likeness to it. In fact, it is the judgment
of those who particpated in the massive
gatherings of 1840 and 1S44, that this was
unquestionably,in point of numbers and en
thusiasm, the mightiest popular demonstra
tion ever witnessed in the United States.
As the various city delegations approached
Broad street, carrying torches, and ever and
anon sending up rockets and burning blue
rights, etc., they presented a grand specta
cle, which seemed at one time to extend
over the whole city. Speeches were deliv
ered from four stands, the most important
speakers being Gen. B. F. Butler, General
Schenk, Senator Wilson and Senator Chan
dler. On Thursday, the Southern Convention
adopted an address and resolutions,in which
the members of that body declare that Mr.
Johnson's policy is responsible for our pres
ent troubles, and testify that the encour
agement given the rebels has placed the
lives and fortunes of Southern Union men
in the hands of men who have fearfully
abused their power. Congress is earnestly
sustained and aked to give further protec
tion to the loyalists in the Southern States.
The following are the resolutions as read
and unanimously adopted :
1. Jiesolved, That the loyal people of the
South cordially unite with the loyal people
of the North in thanksgiving to the Al
mighty God, through whose aid a rebellion
unparalcled for its causelessness, its cruelty
atil its criminality, has been overruled to
the vindication of the Supremacy of the
Federal Constitution over every State and
Territory of the Republic.
2. Jiesolved, That we demand now, as we
have demanded at all times, since the cessa
tion of hostilities, the restoration of the
States in which we live to their old relations
with the Union, on the simplest and fewest
conditions consistent with the security of
t he nation and with the protection of our
lives, property and political rights, now in
jeopardy from the unquenched enmity of
rebels lately in arms.
3. Jiesolved, That the unhappy policy
pursued by Andrew Johnson, President of
the United States, is in its effects upon the
loyal people of the South unjust, oppressive
and intolerable, and accordingly, however
ardently we desire to see our respective
States once more represented in the Con
gress of the United States, we would deplore
their restoration on the inadequate condi
tions prescribed by the President, as tend
ing not to abate but to magnify the sorrows
and perils of our condition.
4. Jicwhed. That with bride in the pa
triotism of the Congress, with gratitude for
the fearless and persistent support they
have given to the cause of loyalty, and their
efforts to restore all the States to their for
mer condition as States in the American U
nion, we will stand by the positions taken
by them, and use all means consistent with
a peaceful and lawful course, to secure the
ratification of the amendments to the Cn
stitution of the United States, as proposed
by the Congress at its recent session, and
regret that the Congress in its wisdom did
not provide by law for the greater security
of the loyal people in the States not yet ad
mitted to representation.
5. Jiesolveil, That the political power of
the Government of the United States in the
administration of public affairs is, by its
Constitution, confined to the popular law
making department of the Government.
0. Jiesohed, That the political stntus of
the States lately in rebellion to the United
States Government, and the rights of the
people of the Uuited States, are political
questions, and are therefore clearly within
the control ot Congress, to the exclusion or
the independent action of any and every
other department of the Government.
7. Jiesolved, That there is no right, po
litical, legal or constitutional, in any State
to secede or withdraw from the Union ; that
they may by wicked and unauthorized revo
lution and force sever the relations which
they have sustained to the Union, and when
they do so and assume the attitude of pub
lic enemies at war with the United States,
they subject themselves to all the rules and
principles of international law and the lawsof
war applicable to all belligerents, according
to modern usage.
8. Hesoh&L That we are unalterably in
favor of the Union of the r- tales, and earn
estly desire the legal and speedy restoration
of all the States to their proper places in the
Union and the establishment in each of them
of influences of patriotism and justice by
which the whole nation shall be combined
.-i fnrrr forward triumnhantlv the mincirjlcs
nf freedom and Droeress. until all men of
U races shall, everywhere beneath tb.3 flag
of oiffottntry,. have accorded to them freely
all that their virtues, lntelliffence, industry,
j patriotism and energy niaydititle them to
attain.
9. Resolved, That tbe organizations m
the unrepresented States, assuming to be
State governments, not having been legally
established, are not legitimate governments
until recognized by Concress.
10. Jiesohed. That the welcome we have
received from the loyal citizens of Philadcl-
f)hia, under the roof ot the time honored
i all in which the declaration of Indepen
dence was adopted, inspires us with an ani
mating hope that the principles of just and
equal government, which were made the
foundation ot the Republic at its origin,
shall become the corner-stone of the Recon
struction. 11- Jiesolved, That we cherish with ten
der hearts the memory of the virtues, pa
triotism, sublime faith, upright christian
life and generous nature of the martyr Presi
dent, Abraham Lincoln.
12. Jiesolved, That we are in favor of uni
versal liberty the world over, and feel the
deepest sympathy with the oppressed peo
ple of all countries in their struggles for
freedom, and the inherent right of all men
to decide and control for themselves the
character of the government under which
they live.
1 3. Jiesolved, That the lasting gratitude
of the nation is due to the men who bore tbe
brunt of the battle and in covering them
selves with imperishable glory, 1 ave saved
to the world its hope of free government,
and relying upon the invincible soldiers and
sailors who made the grand army and navy
of the Republic to be true to the principles
for which they fought, we pledge them that
we will stand by them in maintaining the
honor due the saviors of the nation and in
securing the fiuits of their viclories.
14. Jiesolved, That remembering with
protounding gratitude and love the precepts
of Washington, that we should accustom
ourselves to consider the Union as "the
primary object ot patriotic desire, which
has heretofore sustained us with great pow
er in our love for the Union, when so many
of our neighbors in tbe South were waging
war for its destruction, our deep and abid
ing love for the memory of the Father of
hjs Country, for the Union is more deeply
engraven upon our hearts than ever.
Want of room precludes the publication
of the address this week, bat we will en
deavor to give it in our next.
