Eepublican Mass Meeting, On last Thursday evening the quiet inhabitants of Richfield were aroused by the arrival of the Freeburg Cor net BjAiI, which discoursed a num ber of pieces of entertaining music, after which a Republican meeting was organized. Thomas Shellenberger was chosen President, and A. G. Shellenberger, George C Zimmerman, T. C Derr, George S- Metterling and C. S. Shel lenberger, Vice Presidents. John IL Willis and C S. Dunn were chosen Secretaries. The President stated the object of the meeting, after which John W. Bear, of Puilndelphia better known is the Buckeye Blacksmith address ed the meeting. In his preliminary remarks he stat ed that he has been on the stump for any years. He pronounced the Greenback party a delusion and a snare. Gold and silver must fcver re main the basis of exchange among civilized iHJop'.e. The hard times that the Democrats and reformers talked about were not caused by the Na uonaa government, Dut tney were caused by the extravagances of the people. V e are all guilty of too ex travagant living; the poor are trying to live up to the rick The man with one hundred dollars is trying to live up to the one that is worth hve hun dred dollars, and so on np from one step to another. Another reason is that more is produced than can be consumed; another great reason of hard times is found in the fact that foreigners are coming to do our work 1 they overrun all the places where work is needed, and thus over-production of labor cheapens it The bad classes of Europe, and the Chi nese, who can live on frogs and lizards, are so numerous in the centers of trade that our own people have to stand back, and that is why wages are go low. The foreigners glut the labor market The best friend that labor has ever had is the Republican party. It should not be stricken down in the house of its friends. There was no spread-eagle oratory about the Fpeech ; it was a plain statement of the situation, and our people were pleased with it The following table, savs the Mil waukee Sentinel, being the price list of w holesale grocers and dry goods dealers in 1SC4 and the prices for the same goods at the present time, show ing the difference : 1878 $20 S 10 21 08 1 8S 40 id 40 1 60 12 45 IV) 9 00 2 60 1 OH4 40 Oi 40 10 40 06 55 IS 7. 25 5 00 1 60 tit) U ii OS 55 12 65 08 Crushed sngir . ......

The footing up of the list for 1861 is $01.07, while that of 1878 is but 13.45 for the same articles. In 18G1 laborers received at the rate of ) 2 per day, while now the same class of workmen rei-eive from 51 to l.zo per day ; but the $1 a day they now earn will purchase nearly two and one-half times as much as the $2 they earned in 18C4. Reamer has talked himself to "death. He has lilwled everybody to such a degree, and taken to many collections lor the benefit of himself and private wtcretary, that h has come to be considered a blast of foul breath, and a beggar tor the earnings of others to keep him ur in his tour around the country blackguarding better people. He seems to b under a cloud just now. Another has at it-en to illumine the sky oi riot. Ilia name is Cohen. He has been organizing the rough elements, black and white, of Washington city, and marching at their bead through the streets of the Capital, de manding work at (1 50 per day, or no work, and trying to compel every one who has woik at less figures to quit work. Cohen, when at the bead of his crowd, wears a check shirt, a sath and sword. Tbns at tired, the new apostle of reformed compels all whom he can compel to qnit labor auless the wages receiver! teeet his approval. How long would the freedom of the Republic exist w ith such rulers J Such parades have been going on daily for some time, and at the same time citizens have been asked to contribute provisions to keep the banditti in good living while encaged in their work of terrifying the people. Just how long WahiDton city will stand the infliction is not known, but the point beyond which for bearance lasU will be reached, and then the end will reveal itself. RicnritLD, SepL 16, 1878. Editor Stntuul anJ Republics : Dear Sir, I have been creditably informed that a re port is being circulated throughout the country, that I am a Greenbacker, and that I am advocating the canse and principles of the Greenback party. 1 denounce the re port as being an infamous falsehood, circu lated lor the sole purpose of injuring my standing in the Republican party aud of creating a disturbance in the ranks ot the Republican party. Allow me to smy to my Republican friends that I am at present as zealously adhered and as truly devoted to the principles of the Republicsn purty as 1 have been in days gone by, and that I shall do all in my power to bring out a full vote in Monroe, the banner township of Juniata couuty. q SHELLEKBERGER. Kearney, the senseless Irishman, it is said was turned from the ways of an honest dray man to the ways of a vulgar orator by losing one thousand dollars iu a bank that closed its doors. If every man who has lost money by bailing, by endorsing, or by loaning money, or giving it into the bands of other people, or by other means of misplaced con fidence, would turn himself into a villain ous tongued blackguard, there would be a number of such people going about in the world, that people who atop to listen to their foul language would not contribute to their aupport as they do now by collections to Kearney. rfsrni -T;ji-.if, SU6RT LOCALS.

Washington North baa been appointed Adams Express Agent, to fill the vacancy occasioned by Mr. Speddy's death.

Ilojri have been dying in different parts of the county in ccniderable numbers. The disease that carries them off is a new one.

The Republicans of Pennsylvania must not lose a United States Senator. Let there be a steady pull to elect Sterrett to the Legis lature. The Democratic Congressional Confer ence, that met in this place last week, had not steam enough to carry it through by Saturday, so it adjourned to nieet at New port, Perry county on Monday at 4 o'clock P.

They took possession early, at 5 o'clock in the morning. The result is, a complete split in the Democratic party. Massachu setts has taught a kind of freedom that threatens to run into license and violeuce. The next election will tell whether she can preserve herself against the turbulent ele ments of Butler, Kearney It Co. The way to get people to read the Bible is to say they shall not read it. Down in New Haven, Conn., they got the question up in the schools, as to whether the Bible should be read or not read in tbe schools, and a great agitation took place over the question, which was left to vote of tbe people for decision. The vote stood 4,881 lor Biblfl reading, to 1,963 against Bible reading ; and now it is presumed that by this time next year the people in that com munity will know all about the Good Book.

The disease seems to be located in tbe head of the animal; no external swelling takes place; the eyea discharge large quantities of foul matter, and corrup tion that has an offensive smell about it runs from the nostril in large quantities.

A corkxspoxdest of the Ecnomist (Lon don) writes from Vienna showing that some of the expected adverse reports respecting foreign harvests have njt been received, and purchasers have become much more careful in consequence. It learns that the United States harvest has Leen good, both in quantity and in quality, and that the amount of wheat raised is greater thaa it has ever been before. Last year it was 333,000,000 bushels, and this year 350,000,- 000. Great Britain and Ireland calculate upon a "good average harvest." In France there Is little corn in store, and the harvest has been 'poor,' with wheat at "20 per cent, under the average." Belgium ex pect "a medium harvest," and Holland a good one for all descriptions," with the ex ception of rye. In Scandinavia and the Russian and German provinces along the Baltic coast the harvest has been " a fairly good one," except as to coin. The same is said of Poland, Rouniania, and Central Russia, but Southern Russia has fared much worse. The harvest of Switzerland has been 10 to 20 per cent, below the average ; that of Italy has been very" good in re gard to quantity, but the quality has suf fered from the damp. In Bavaria the fair vest has been "very good," in Siberia good as to rye, but wheat there aud elsewhere in Prussia has been blighted. In the Rhenish provinces rye is of inferior quality, but wheat is first-rate." In Austria and Hun gary tbe result is "very good indeed." The Juniata County Agricultural Society will bold its annual Fair on the grounds of the Society, at Port Royal, on Wednes day, Thursday and Friday, October 9th, 10th and 11 to, 1878.
