Republican Meeting.
The Republicans of this town held n
meeting on Market Square last Tuesday
evening. lier getting out the Band and
parading it about town lbr an hour, quite a
number of people cane together at the des
ignated spot for the meeting. The majori
ty of the andietwe, we should think, was
iernoerats, who went to the meeting out of
curiosity, to hear what the defenders and
supporters of the Radi ca l party had to sap.
The disappointment ran be better imagined
than described, when it was announeed that
the speakers who were expected hnd not
arrived, but that the meeting should not be
postponed, as it was the intention to make
use of "home material." Joshua Menden
hall, of Franklin, was called to the chair,
and a lot of the Iladieals in town
selected as Vice Presidents. The organi
zation being effeeted,l'apt. Whitmoyer, the
Pine township boy, came forward and made
one of hi, not very enthu4instie speedw:4.
We do not know how long he talked by the
watch, but the time seemed terribly long to
us, and after he made his exit we failed to
discover that he had proved or settled any
thing. The Captain labored hard and
earnestly, but all to no pirpo-.e. Enthusi
asm could not be produced. It was not in
the crowd.
M. M. I: Velle, Ashland, who
was here attending court, was not intro
duced to the audience, and delivered a
spread-eagle speech, making, no doubt, the
best he could out of a bad cause. lie
spoke of our financial condition, expenses,
receipts, and approprit.tions ; but his whole
talk on these points was a good deal mud
dled. Ills allusions to reeonstwetion wet !e
rather vague, and made no impression. If
wo. should say that his eulogy on 4:en. Grant
was not what it was intended—able and
proper—we would be perverting the
truth. Al a soldier we have not one word
at this time to say against Gen. Grant. Ile
is running fur a civil not military office, and
it is his qualifications for the office of a
civilian that we will discuss in this campaign.
The talk of speakers about the General's
good fighting qualities has nothing to do
with his holding the office of President
(provided he can get it.) To say the lea: t
of Mr. L'Velle's speech, it was well receiv
ed by men of his political persuasion.
Col. Samuel Knorr was called out. Ile
stepped forward to the foot lights, made a
few remarks, excused hinisdf en account of
the lateness, and retired. A few cheers were
Kilt up, the oiler n►cwbers of the Radical
party getting in their "Amen," and the
fizzle adjourned.
GRANT VOW :i ritiNcipi.r%;.—The
Rattles' candidate for President, during his
trip to the West, gave vent to the following
opinion :
''The Demorrats are making a great fuss
over negro suffrage. As for toe, I think
that our colored fi•ilow citizens have just as
good a right to vote as the foreigners have."
flow do you like that. Irishmen and Ger
mans, who followed Grant to his butelier
fields in the south? Do you believe that
negroes have just as good a right to vote as
you have? If so, vote fir Urant. But, if
not. put your shoulders to the wheel and
help the Democracy to restore this govern
ment to its former condition of white su
premacy and grandeur.
FEw better campaign documents could be
eirculated throughout the North than the

concerning (:eneral Grant's refusal to bring

Butler's report of the matter, would be a

4 Iteninrkable Coincidence.
A gentleman in one of the Dppßommits
at IVashington has made n drove ry which
develops one of the most remarkable
denten to be found on record--to the super
stitious, one absolutely startling. Many of
our ruleri of the earth were firm believers
in destiny, and long before there rise rot a
confidence in their exaltation that nothing
could impair. Napoleon and his first wife
had their prophecies and omens which were
singularly ; but neither the realign
tion in these two cases, nor in any others
now of record, were so remarkable es the
coincidence developed by the discovery of
the combination or figures made by the gen
tleman in Washington, which is published
in the Notional Intelligenrer, and which we
give below. In the first place, the alphabet
is numbered from A to Z, 1,2, 3, &r., up
to 211. A represents 1 and Z 26. Taking
therefhre the letters in the un i te "Seymour
and Blair,' ' and represen t ing each letter by
the number it represents in the alphabet
when we added up the whole, we find the
total seek produced is 177. Then take the
words "t; rant and Colfax" end add up the
numerical representatives of each letter, in
like manner, and the aggregate product is
110. Add together 177 end 140, the total
of two electoral tickets fir the ]'residency
and Vice Presideney, now in the field, awl
we have the aggregate 317, which is pre
cisely the number of votes in the Electoral

Freedmen's Berm; the "ndseellancous
expenses" of Congress, amounting to near

they have and can plunder from the South?
What mere do they wont? Why the elec

toothsome "fruits" may continue to fall into

During the past week we have seen several
gentlemen who, in the rotine of business,
curve traveled the State from the Delaware
to the Ohio, and the reports they give of
the tone of public sentiment everywhere
uniformly point to an overwhelming Benin
cratie victory. Our infbrmants are gentle
men of intelligence, who would not
misrepresent facts. Their opportunities for
observation have been very extended. In
the large cities and towns, in the retired vil
lages, and throughout the rural districts,
the universal cry is: fiive us a change of
rulers. Any change must be for the better.
We have had our fill of taxation, of negro
supporting, of' constitution-breaking, amid'
rottenness, fraud and corruption. We have
given the ltudieal party a fair trial. For
eight long, weary years we have permitted
it to control our national affairs at the dis
cretion of its leaders, and what have been
the results? Judging from the present
state of fkling, Seymour and Blair will
carry the State by such a majority as will
bury Radicalism forever in the Keystone
Commonwealth.

"I any Sure they Won to do
Right."
Every honest man who really desires to
see our distracted country restored to peace
and prosperity will greet with satisfaction ti
little news item received from Washington
a few days age. It reads as follows:
In consideration of thegiews of General
Reseerans, General Meade called upon the
President on Friday and spent several hours
at the War >cpartment and army headquar
ters. I le speaks in the most cheerful man
ner of the condition of the South and the
Rotumal good conduct of the people. Ile
remarked to a friend to-day : am sure
they mean to do right."
The abominable falsehoods, misre . present•
ations and perversione, coined contrived and
uttered daily by Greeley and fleecy fbr two
years law, are all blown to the winds by
this little sentence spoken by an honorable
man. When General Movie, who has been
long enough in the South to make himself
acquainted with the views and feelings of
the leading men of that section, tells the
northern people that he "is sure they mean
to do right," the malignant fabrications
with whieh the Tribune and the Prfss have
teemed for a long time past, and which
have been reproduced by a thousand of' the
small-fry papers of the Radical parts., will
be seen by every man of brains in their true
light; and the contempt of those who have
been deceived by the unscrupulous fidsifica
time will not be overcome by any sophistries
which they can invent.
General 3leade has fixed the brand of
knavery upon the brows of these unmitiga
ted scoundrels, so deeply that all their art
cannot erase it. They will now pour their •
streams of vituperation upon .leade and
Rosecrims with the same vitriolic tempei'
with which they have directed them against
others who have refused to aid in their in
famous work, unless the cowardly rascals
fear that some indignant of these officers '
may loose patience, and treat their epidemics
to the excortiating application of a cowhide
whip, which is the only argument like to
make any impression upon such naturer.
Their railing and lying have done their
worst; and the slow-moving hand of time
brings out the truth. There has been nei
ther sense nor reason in the measures de
vised
and enacted by the malignants in
"Congress" to secure the votes of southern
States for their party. The attempt to;
establish negro rule under the power of On.
bayonet has, proved a fiailure ; and those who
have made it now find that they cannot con
trol the votes of the slaves they have eman
cipated, and their only hope now is in pro
voking hostilities between the negroes and
the white . people, to give the radicals an ex- •
cuse tin' increas ing the military force and '
the profits of contracts and plunder, MI
the industrial and business interests of the
country are sacrificed to enable them to
perpetuate their power and drive the men
try on to the ruin which is staring us in the
face.
The testimony of' an officer so much re
spected its General Meade will be received
by the northern people in the sane spirit in
which it is given. They know that he is not
an ambitious politician, and that neither
himself' nor his friends have obtrusively
pushed him forward, although he won the
culminating battle of the war. He has

Thepeople of the northern States now
know that southern men have honestly ac
knowledged their defeat in arms, and can
didly accept the situation in whic h they are
placed • only contending fur the rights guar
anteed to them by the Constitution, and
which no honest man desires to withhold
from any portion of the American people.
Their property has been destroyed, their
laher system subverted ; they have many
diffienitioA to contend with, but only ask to
be allowed to improve their condition by an
exhibition of their own energies. : n orthern
men will now see that there is no necessity
for the vast expense of a standing army in
the southern States. and no honest use for
such a politico-military machine as the
Freedmen's Bureau. 4 ;own! Meade's as
suranee of the disposition of the southern
people to do right makes it evident that a
very hirre part of the expense and plunder
of the Federal government may be at once
lopped off, and taxation proportionately re
duced. The little sentence uttered by an
honest man will lie regarded as a harbinFer
of that real peace and good will for which
well-meaning men in all parts of our country
long and pray. It will he to the ears of the
plunderini Badicals and shoddy aristocrats
more feattul than the tones of the raven's
voice when he
