[For the Journal.] C..q MASS MEETING AT ALE AN- DRIA. CLARK.—llaving understood three ,eks since, that there was to be a grand display of the " bone and sinew" of the self styled democratic party, at Alexan dria, on Saturday last, I made it suit to be in attendance. From the appear anceof the arrangements made, I really did expect to see a meeting at Alexandria; but alas! I was mistaken, unless you would call a small gathering, about equal in number to a country " butter boiling" the bone and sinew of the "great loco pro party," in this county. After fla hand-bills had been posted up in all parts of the county—after the lead ers of the party had labored with all their strength for three weeks—after their previous meetings of arrangements and in fine after a tremendous drumming up of three weeks, the great . body of the Lucofoco party of Huntingdon county met in "mass meeting" at Alexandria. About twelve o'clo - ck, news came that the boat containing the Huntingdon and Shavers creek delegations, was below town. The Committeeof arrangements immediately proceeded to the lower end of the town to escort them to the ground of meeting. The delegations, with the committee at their head, then proceed ed up direct, to the awful number of sixty-eight ! ! Having arrived at the place of meeting, they adjourned for the space of ten minutes, having given three very feeble cheers for Cuss and Butler. _ _ The recess having expired, the meet ing was organized and T. P. Campbell of Huntingdon took the stand. This eminent leader and expounder of Loco foco principles, labored at length to show to his enlightened, but small au dience, that the Whig party had chang ed its name. In order to substantiate this ground, the worthy gentleman pro duced a file of documents, sufficiently large to contain all the laws of Solon on the exploits of Hercules. He then proceeded to show, that the Locefoco party were unchangable and immutable. That the principles they ad vocate they ever advocated. That their consistency was unblemished and un doubted. But the gentleman seems to forget that in '4.4. they advocated a high protective tariff, and in '46 they made a Free Trade Tariff. Does this look like immutability 'I But it is not only so with the Tariff but with every other principle they ever advocated. In place of the Whigs being inconsistent, they now offer the people a President on the broad platform of the Constitu tion as 7t was administered by W. 3811- I,IrOTGX and JEFFERSON. These are the grounds they always stood on, and they never changed them. What they advocated in '4O they advocate now, and so they ever did. But it is useless for me to follow this gentleman through his speech, if speech, it can be called, as it consisted in nothing but abusive nd vile epithets, against Gen. Taylor and the Whig party. John Scott Jr time Ex-prosecuting St torney, was called upon to address the meeting. This gentleman proceeded in Fills usual style, and attempted to sub stantiate the grounds taken by his wor thy colleague, and as usual dipped largely into low blaguardism. The whole meeting then formed into procession and marched up street, where they counter marched and pro ceeded to the Huntingdon and Shavers creek boat. The procession, consisting of the whole meeting, numbered one hun dred and four, men, boys and unnatu ralized foreigners. Thus ended the great _and glorious demonstration of the “un terified demosmracy" of Huntingdon coun ty, at Alexandria. A SPECTATOR, FOREIGN NEWS, The steamer Washington arrived at New York last week, bringing later news front Europe. The cholera has made its appearance in London. All quiet in Ireland. The weather at London and Liver pool was unfavorable, and the accounts with regard to the potatoe crop contin ued to be of a gloomy and distressing character. In Dublin, John Martin, the editor of the Felon, lind been found guilty and sentenced to tranportation. Thirteen persons charged with treason and sedi tion, have been sent to Kingston, and shipped on board a government steamer, whip h immediately sailed north. The rumors from France have n threat n ing aspect. Another insurrec tion was apprehended.—Cavaignac is vigilant and apparently prepared. He is concentrating a large force about Paris. The Emperor of Austria was received in the most enthusiastic manner on his re turn to his capital, The mediation of France and England in the Affairs of Austria and Italy had been successful. In Spain there had been some skir mishing between the Queen's troops and the Carlists. The provincial corn market show a rise of 2s to 4s per quarter. LATER. The Hibernia arrived at Boston on Friday last bringing one week's later news. Ireland still remains quiet. It is rumored that a revolvtion has broken out in Russia. There is a handsome rise in bread st.nffs, a most important fact for this country, though had fur the poor there; sales of flour were being made in Liv erpool at 33s 6d to 33s freely ; an ad vance of 21.2 to 3s per bbl on last news. The Cotton market remained about the same. The packet ship Ocean Monarch, Capt. Murdock, sailed from Liverpool on the 24th, bound for Boston, was to tally burned in the English channel soon after leaving port, and one hun dred and filly persons perished.
