to charge any ono of them with it.
The editor of the Star can smother
his Know Nuthing yearnings no longer.
It was arranged by the Apposition
managers, ' at the beginning of this can
vass, that the Star should keep quiet
concerning the Catholics. Tho "Specu
lation" had proven a bad one before,
and it should not be risked again. But
the lion's skin has proven too small
to hide 'the ass's ears. In the last
issue of the Star Mr. - Will is assail
ed as being a Catholic in characteristic
t 3 t.1719, fpnd l , he editor oven writes a cOm
rt,tunicatipn on the subject, signing it
4..Domocrat." We wish him joy of
whatever capital be may make on that
head. The 12th inst. will teach him
another lesson against abuse of a fel
low citizen because of his religious
opinions.
Der The Sentinel says the people have
a "very strong notion, of electing Mr.
Durizoraw to the Legislature, who is
pledged to the repeal of that $7OO law."
But ho has not pledged lain self in 'TO-.
gard to the taking of it! -Mr. Durboraw
and his "keepers," no - doubt, - flattered
themselves that his letter to Mr. Rosser
was framed with sufficient adroitness to
hide this trap-a salsothateoncerningtho
Tonnage Tax--;-but tho attempted cheat
is too glazing. The people are , not so
shallow as to be, humbugged by such a
devizo.
As to the Seatiners "brag," it need
only be remembered that Such has been
tho pplicy of the Snow Nothing pa
ppm hero during every canvass. It is
like the boy's whistling to keep up his
courage whilst passing a grave-yard.—

As to the matter of the speech, the col
umns of the Star, fur the last month, reflect
it,aS nearly as may be. "Weeding Kansas"
was'taken as one division, and treated in true ,
N. Y. Tribune style ; the Tariff was another,
and he took high ground, just the ground he
did not • avow a year ago,,whilst Secretary

the last general load, in handling which ho
was about as fortunate as the Star has been
on the same topic, only that McPherson
could not get down to quitcl $80,000,0J:), as
the Star did for a week or two.

At the conclusion of Mr.l4lcPbersou's speech
there Were calls for a half - dozen- different
speakers, when U. A. Butn.sn took the stand
and worked himselfinto a sweat in an effort to
arouse a little enthusiasm. But the attempt
failed as had that of Mr. McPherson, notwith

Luge and Enthusiastic Democratic
Meeting in Gettysburg I---Speech of
Non. Wilson Reilly, the Democratic
Nominee for Congress.---Speech of
I W. Douglas, Emi.
The friends of Democracy in Gettys
burg-and the surrounding townships
gathered in large force on Monday eve
ning last, to hear the Hon. WILSON
REILLY, the able and eloquent Demo
cratic candidate for Congress. Our
Marsh creek friends came to town in a
body, under the Marshalship of Messrs.
CORNELIUS DAUGUERTY and IsAAo HER
ETEIt, accompanied with martial music,
their horses and wagons decked out
with flags and hickory. boughs. It was
truly An ehlivening sight, and the del
egation was, of course, received With
repeated cheers—those given for the
"Marsh Creek Democracy" wore espe
cially enthusiastic.
At the ringing of rho Court-house
boll, the people repaired to the Court
hall, which was soon filled to its utmost
capacity. The following gen tlemen
were chosen the officers of the Meeting :
President, SoLosor Powzas.
Vice Presidents, Isaac Deardorff, Peter Mark
ley, William Wys otzky, John Eckenrode, Jacob
Cashman, Philip Krickser, Augustus Ilartzel,
Peter Johns, Lewis Myers, Jacob Mulkey, Fran
cis Bream, Jacob Plank, John Ironing. -
Secretaries, John Wert; Jacob C: Pittenturff,
Win. A. Eeary, J. Scott Wilson, Jacob Eel:cu
t-ode, Edward Moritz.
lion. WILSON REILLY was then intro-.
deiced, and after the applause which
greeted his rising had subsided, ho pro
ceeded to deliver ono of the most clear
and - convincing speeches to which wo
have over listened., Ile stated that al-
though at one timo ho doubted the le-,
gality of the Constitution framed at
Leeompton, in Kansas, he became con
vinced on thorough investigation, and
upon the authority of Judge Douglas
and Ex-Gov. Walker themselves, that
the Legistature which framed that in
strument was legally empowered to
form a code of laws for the people of
that territory. And so believing, ho
could not do otherwise than vote for
the admission of Kansas under it.
Tho late electiori shows that the pop
elation of Kansas numbers some seven•
ty or eighty thousand, and the strong
probability is that before the Legisla
tor° shall meet in regular session—
enact a, law calling a Constitutional
Convention--and' a Constitution bo
framed, submitted and adopted—the
population will number more than the
English bill requires. Ho had, there
fore, no hesitation in declaring that
should Kansas present a Constitution,
republican in form, and properly adopt
ed, he - would vote for her admission—
oven should she lack a few hundreds,
or a few thousands, of 93.000. As a ,
political hobby, ho regarded the Kansas
question dead, beyond the hope of res
urrection.
A number of the Opposition mana
gers were in the Court-house during the
delivery, of the speech, and - the disap
pointment exhibited in their looks prov
ed that their hoped-for capital out of it
became "small by degrees and beauti
fully less." And not only so on the
Kansas issue, - but also in regard to the
Tariff and the Public Expenditures.
His out-spoken candor took them all
aback. He declared himself in favor of
a Tariff which would defray the expen
ses of the Government, without resort
ing to loans, and in laying that Tariff,
lie would discriminate in favor of such
articles as needed it most. The interests
of Pennsylvania—her iron and coal—
ho would b ollard at all points.
As to do -Public Expenditures, ho
showed the appropriations for the year
to be 868,000,000, and there would boa
.balance in the Treasury of several mil
lions at the end of the fiscal year, to be ,
deducted from the sum stated. lie was '
especially happy in his allusions to the
several sums appropriated to the sup
port and increase of our gallant Army
and Navy—for the works necessary to
the protection of our extended sea coast
and frontier borders—for the pensions
given to the survivors of the wars of,
1776 and 1812—and to the keeping upl
of our varied mail facilities, so necessa
ry in the businesi and social relations
of our nearly 30,000,000 of people.
Ho proved, ton, that notwithstanding
the "Ficonomy" - now , preached by the
Republicans, it was that party in Con
gress which increased the pay of members
from eight dollars a day, whilst in session,
to three thousand dollars per annum /
and that the present Tariff, which the
Onnesitlon denounce as "ruinous," was
the work of the Republican and Know
Nothing Congress of 1857.
Tho speeeli throughout, Ives si most
convincing- oqe, and ins Penitently
greeted with warm applause.
It was courteous and gentlemanly—
differing widely in this respeet, on
those delivered by his opponent, Mr.
McPherson, who, it is said, to his anx
iety to bo elected to Congress, loses
discretion and abuses Without stirs; all
Democratic measures . an' - We
greatly regret. that the voters of the
Maim county, of all parties,' war, not
present to hoar thia_mastarlyekort of

3. W. Douglas, Esq., was then intro..
diced, and ho made a capitaipeoeh on
the issues of the canvass. Charles Will,
Esq., the Democratic candidate for the
Legislature, who was present, wag
loudly called for, and be responded
briefly. Ho triumphantly refuted the
charge of voting for 4 ' extra pay,"
brought against him by the Opposition
papers, and declared that should'he be
elected, ho would most certainly -vote
to repeal the law allowing a salary of
$7OO to members—and would vote,
" , first, last, and all the time," against a
repeal of the Tonnage Tax. Hia speech
was characterised by frankness and van
dor, and won him hogiipf friends. A
millibar of the Oppositillifiven admitted
that nothing could reasonably bo said
against his explanation of his Legislaw
live votes.
