Another Democratic Meeting In

Handbills were issued on last Friday
afternoon, by the. Chairman of the Demo
cratic County Committee and ihe Presi
dent of the Democratic Club, calling on
the Democracy to meet in the Court
Ilou.-e at seven o'clock P.M. of the same
day.
Although the call only preceded the
meeting a few hours, the word spread rap
idly, and bythe appointed hour, a very
respectable gathering occupied the Court
Room.
The Chairman of the County Com
mittee, culled the meeting to older and
stated the object thereof.
The following named gentlemen were
then elected officers of the mectinrr.

On motion, R. L Johntson, Esq., ad
dressed the the meeting.
He referred to the Republican meetin""
held on Thursday, and said he wished to
contradict Mr. Scott, in some of his
statements. He referred back to the
time of the alien and sedition laws and
said they had taken effect in Pennsylva
nia within a mouth.
The meeting of the Republicans on
Thursday put him in mind of the terrible
times of 1840. He referred to the ar
tifices of music &c, to gain a crowd.
lie sj)oke of Mr. White giving
all Ins :
ns to the army, and though old as he '
Va. had furnished some" sujrplisa. He
further referred to Mr. Scott' speech
herein that entleairi said that the
Democrat ani
Democratic party had two wings, but
that they belonged to the same bird ; and
that Judge Woodward's nomination was
far superior to any nomination here
tofore made by the Democracy. He re
ferred to Mr. Scott's speech, made at
Ilarrisburg, on the 22d, day of February
1861, wherein the gentlemen endorsed
and voted for resolutious condemning: this
war ; and to his voting for a Know
Nothing against a Douglas Democrat for
State Treasurer : and then he referred to
the meeting on last Thursday, which
cheered Mr. Scott, when he said, that
any man who would condemn Judge
Woodward, on account of his decision
relative to the soldier's vote, was a low
demagogue ; and a few moments after
wards, cheered a resolution condemning
Judjie Woodward for the very same act.
Mr. Johnston spoke over an hour, show
ing the inconsistencies of the speeches
made at the Abolition meeting; and clearly
proved that those who were hired for the
occasion, neither knew when nor for what
they were cheering.
P. S. Noon, Esq., was then loudly cal
led for, and responded nobly. lie spoke
of Mr. Lincoln Laving with one fell swoop
of his pen, struck our liberties from us.
by the suspension of the writ of habeas
corpus. lie thought, probably, this would
be the last meeting of freemen, ever held j
m the Lonrt House, it Lurtiii was elected.
Mr. Noon spoke about an hour,
M. D. Magellan Es., was next called.
lie was afraid he would not be allowed
to speak, since the writ of habeas corpus
was suspended, for fear Provost Marshal
Ileyer, a scavenger, who was not fit to
blacken his boots, would arrest him ; but,
believed he would speak his sentiments in
spite of the minions of this damnable Ad
ministration, lie was not speaking to
freemen, but to slaves who had chains
fastened on them. Said every man who
spoke at the Republican meeting was a
lured minion of either old Abe or Curtin.
Mr. Magehan sjoke about half an hour.
Gen. Jos. M'Donald was then called
upon, and responded in his usually pleas
ing and happy style.
Mr. Miller, of Ohio, a Democrat of
the Yallandigham school, was found to
be present, and was railed ukii to address
the meeting. Although a stranger in the
place, he replied in a forcible speech, which
was received with loud bursts of applause.
Col. Hasson was then called upon.
He arose and declined making any re
marks, lelieviiig they could not be appre
ciated after so much eloquence. '
Great enthuriasm and attention prevail
throughout the entire meeting.
The speeches being concluded, the mee
ting adjourned, with three cheers for Hon.
C. L Yallandigham, the Union the Con
stitution and the State and County ticket.

Democracy was held at Hemlock, on last
Saturdaj-, at which the following named
gentlemen presided.

Michael P.arnaelo, in St. Augustine, on
Tuesday the 29th inst., at 2 o'clock P.

C3T We are pleased to learn that our

then serving as high private ; and, for
the last few months has been acting Ser

attend him.
C" At the late Democratic meetin"
held in the shiretown of Crawford county,
one thousand and thirty wagons came
nto the town loaded with people.
.
The conscripts' time for reporting
, . . F ,. 1
at Huntingdon, from this county, has
been extended, for the rp.i?n tJ.ir-
i j ..f r n-
'"..s omcers, cannot get
through with Huntingdon county in time
to examine Cambria's quota, as per no-
tic.
An Important Matter.
The law requires every citizen to be
assessed, at least ten days previous to the
election, before he can vote ; and we,
here and now, make mention of this im
portant matter, hoping that no Democrat
will neglect the requirements of the law,
and thereby be deprived of that high pre
rogative. The assessment books should
be examined, and every Democrat's name
should, at once, be placed on the books.
The time is short, and we must not allow
ourselves to be beaten by our own stu
pidity and neglect.
The proflligacy of this Administration
and the degeneracy of its supporters are '
fast increasing ; and if, through neglect,
we allow the Democratic ticket to be de
feated, we shall yet mourn over our apathy.
The coming contest is a struggle for free
dom ; and if victory does not crown our
efforts, it may, and will, in all probabili
ty, be the last time wc shall have the op
portunity of exercising the right of suff
rage. This is no idle saying, nor need
you shrink from the picture ; for unless
you unswervingly vote the Democratic
ticket and assist in carrying the election
against the threats of usurpers, your lib
erties and your Government are gone.
This is no visionary speculation, for the
clouds of ruin and despotism are fast gath
ering around us. The fearful realities
are to be seen in every movement that
proceeds from Washington. In another
column will be found a proclamation from
the dynasty at Washington, wherein, it
will be seen, the writ of lutbeas corpus
has been suspended, which virtually de
clares martial law all over the the land
and makes Abe Lincoln an Emperor.
Step by step has this old Mountebank ig
nored the provisions of the Constitution ;
and if the coming election goes favorably
to his wishes, we may soon see another
proclamation declaring the ballot box
void, and signed, His Majesty, Abraham
the First. .
We urge upon every Democrat the im
portance of being assessed ; and to see
that their neighbors do likewise ; for wc
may yet need every vote. Although we
are sanguine of success, yet it is well to
be on guard, for the Administration at
Washington, through favor and threats,
are making every effort to carry the elec
tion against the wishes of the people.
Thousands of soldiers are now being sent
throughout different parts of the State for
this purpose , and unless we, as a people,
stand firm, our lips may yet be polluted
with a test oath, promising allegiance and
homaire to Abe Lincoln, such as the citi
zens of Kentucky were forced to take.
CvT Quite a disgraceful scene occurred
on Tunnel Hil', on last Saturday. A
posse of Lincoln understrappers, from
this place, who were engaged in serving
notices on some conscripts, near that
place, having indulged a little to freely
in rotgut whiskey, proceeded to Tunnel
Hill, where they used obscene language and
so shamefully insulted some of the wo
men, that the indignation of the male
residents of the town, who were within
hearing distance, became so aroused, that
they immediately chastised the offenders ;
some of whom bear the marks of pretty
rough treatment. We have not room for
full particulars this week.

A Poor Imitation.
Tlie Abolitionists of our place, cha
grined at the out poring of the Democracy
of Little Cambria, at the late mass meet-
i . - .. .. c
ing, resolved to get up an imitation of i
that rreat meetincr of the 44 Frost v sons
Tl m v , c i .
Thursday of the following week, for the
demonstration. l?unners were imme
diately sent to different localities, to ef
fect, if possible, the extravagant underta
king. Both promises and threats were
used to coerce such as were denendent.
r,., , , c n .i!
1 lie whole force ot influence connected j
. , T , g , . y n i
with the Johnstown Cambria Iron Com- j
'
pany was brought to bear on such of t
iV , , e I
their employees as were compelled, from
... . , , , .....
prevailing circumstances, to submit to the
v . . c , lT .
dictates ot ainuence ; and upon their j
more favored hirelings, who for insijjnifi-
i
cant favors and jetty salaries, are willing .
to sacrifice principle and cringe to the will ;
of a few pampered epicures who control
the workings of a souless corjxration. ;
To this end money was lavished, teams
were hired, the county was canvassed and !
men were paid to attend the contempla- !
ted assemblage. The "loyal leaguers")
were in session night after night and the !
leaders bestired themselves to exert the !
members to rally up the forces : but not- I
withstanding the flamins play cards, the
threats and inducement extended f r days
previous, the people failed to appear on the
appointed day, in such numbers as were I
promised and anticipated by the control
ling instruments of the Abolition party.
We are unable to estimate the exact
number of their forces on that day, as a
large percentage of the meeting was made

Democrats attending Court, who through
curiosity to witness the display of some j
seven or eight wagons, which were quietly
taken out of town several times and i
driven in again, from different di- j
rections, filled with half grown boys and '
men whose services were also secured for j
the occasion, in order to create the im- j
pression that the large number of people
who were in town attending Court had
come from all these different directions to
the oo-nian meeting.
In the mean time, a platform was
erected against the side of the Mountain 1
House; the weather being favorable, they j wc:lfWl1 'r from the qrass band or

r ,T . x, ... T . t t,L' tit-bird of a looking fellow, named
Geo. M. Reed, Esq., Minor John . ,. , , ' ,
.r. , . ' . ' T, , Cyrus Elder, climbed upon the speakers
masters of ccrmoni.es and were prema
turely "seated on high " awaiting the i
arrival of the aforesaid brass band and !
Welsh minstrels, which attracted the
mixed audience to which we have already
alluded.
Next in order was the Abolition thun
der. The big gun that wa9 to astonish
the people was John Scott Esq , of Hun
tingdon, who instead of meeting the ex
pectations of his Abolition brethern, flew
the track, as he is wont to do, and took a
central position between the two parties ;
aid much to the mortification and cha
grin of his " loyal " frit nds, passed a
beautiful encomium on the unimpeachable
and stainless character of Judge Wood
ward, dwelling upon his virtues, until
finding that this kind rf music would no
longer suit the complaisance of Ids im
mediate listeners, cut short his panegyric
by saying that he preferred voting for Cur
tin, on account of the platform on which
he stood ; meaning no doubt, the salary
allowed the Assistant Adjutant General.
Mr. Scott, like most speakers, "did
not come here to make a speech," but
was, nevertheless, well supplied with
notes, and documents, from which he oc
casionally quoted, as his mind wandered
from Stephen A. Douglas and the
Charleston Convention, which were his
particular text.
The next big gun was a Colonel
Thomas of Ilarrisburg, who being longer
winded than he was headed, pretty well
dispersed the crowd of curious spectators
who got tired listening, or trying to listen
to reiterated epithets, wlich were none
two well articulated. Like his colleague
Scott, lie too, was in favor of Curtin, the
Republican platform and of continuing
his oicn salary and ajjmntiieiit as Deputy
Secretary of tlie Commonwealth. Mr.
Thomas, from his disability to articulate
his words sufficiently loud to be heard,
was no doubt considered a bore by his
listeners, as he drew no cheers ; from the
crowd, except from those who were hired
for the occasion.
Next followed Hon. Thomas White, of
Indiana county, who rehearsed all that
had been said, and dwelt upon the old
' .
song about the Star of the West and the
firing on Fort Sumpter.
He regaled his
listeners for an hour and a half, much to
the disgust of one of the appointed Yice
1 'residents of the meeting, who concluding
that the Judge was occupying too much
time, proceeded to interrupt his Honor,
and monopolize the attention of the lis-
teners, when Daniel, one of the aforesaid
' '
managers, collared the impertinent yeo-
.
man, who struggled hard to maintain his
co
position on the si maker's stand ; but from
1 '
superior force and the pressure of bad
r .
whiskc'3 was finally, ejected from the
" ' J
rosiium.
Deingin the distance, we could not
distinctly hear all that was said by the
intruder which was uttered in the "sweet
German accent." We however catched
the following sentences, which were ut
tered too loud to be mistaken.
" Judge, you shust got down and I
shows up de peoples what you be and how
you sheaf de State. You been one tam
spitzbube and I proves it to the peoples."
In the mean time, onti John Kimble.
I JesIril,S to sh:ire in
the laurels, opened
his battery on the opposite corner. His
speech was principally made up with ges-
and incoherent sentences, and occasi j:i-
ally a summerset in the air, to convince
his listeners of his earnestness, which, if
it did not enlighten his hearers served to
draw a large portion of the crowd from
the main stand. Thus, the entertain-
ment was . progressing, when it was
thought wiselv by the managers to ad-
. .. "
journ until aUer supper, to meet in the
, , " '
Court House.
Of course Judge Whir being one of
the largest Government Contractors in
this State, was in favor of a " vigo
rous prosecution of the war." lie
thought, like Scott and Thomas who pre
ceded him, that Judge Woodward was
a man of unsullied reputation ; but he
could not .vote for him on that account.
He (bought tlie Union was of ino.e iin
jKrtance than the election of a Demo-
j Governor. At different times, during
his speech, the Judge wandered from the
subject and would have despaired of the
; Abolition party, had it not been for an
stand and proceeded to read some resolu-
! Hons ; but as nolodv waited to listen to
them, we did n-.it learn their purport.
.M).ion;xi:i) m;.ktin;. ,
Precisely at half past seven o'clock,
the appointed time, the aforesaid mana
gers were seated in the Court room, pa
tiently awaiting the the people, a few of
whom made their appearance, attracted
in a great measure, by the sound of brass
horns. A fee of five cents was begced
from each person present, by a committee
of one, who canvassed the room with a
tallow candle and an old hat. This be
ing done, the, concert opened with a
Welsh song from the minstrels.
A fellow by the name of Stewart, from
Indiana was then introduced, who spoke
in ungramatical language for a considera
ble tune, ile sai l lie was in favor of
sustaining the Administration, and in
favor of " a vigorous prosecution of the
war."
The big guns being all spent, Thee.
Ileyer was called upon. lie came for
ward and said he had once been a Demo
crat, but that the ' party had left him :
which meant, no doubt, that he could no
longer get into office by false professions
of Democracy.
Of course, Ileyer's "loyalty" is easily
accounted for. He is a lick spittle of this
Administration, and eagerly desires a con
tinuance, or a "vigorous prosecution of the
war, lest his occupation (as Provost
Marshal) cease.
last and least of all, came the little
pop-gun from Johnstown, named Elder.
His speech was a mild effusion of inno
cent twaddle, which faintly echoed against
the walls like gibberislu He said this
war was a h-o-l-y w-a-r-ah ! He hoped
the people would try it a l-i-t-t-l-e 1-o-n-g-e-r-ah
! He said if it were not so late,
he would move the audience to t-e-a-r-s-

C-u-rt-i-n-ah ! He believed one North
ern soldier could whip 6ve S-o-u-t-h-e-r-n

After the entertainment of little Kj

removed, and A. Kopelin, Esq., Sfir
