Lancaster CO., Pa on Saturday last is SAID to have
been the largest Political gathering ever held IN
that large and populous county. The Court House
would not begin to hold the People, and an adjourn
naent to the Market Square was resortcd 10. Gen.
WILLIAM HESTER, late NJ. c., presided and a Vice
President was chosen from each Of the thirty-four
townships in the county, among whom we notice
zone ex-Member of Congress Edward Davies
and several ex-Members of Assembly, Hon. JonN
STgonM, late President Of the Senate, headed the
Committee on Resolutions, which IN the afternoon
reported an able Address and Resolutions, heartily
responding TO the nomination of Henry CLAY for
President and to the call Of Il Wing National
Convention at Baltimore next May; and the IN
alterabe resolution Of the Freemen of Penneylva-
MIA to contend ardenty and VIGOROUSLY Tor those
great principles of public policy with which the
name of CLAY is imperishably identified. The
following resolution is much to the purpose
Reaolped That Lancaster Co. and will be the Banner
County in lSllAt they oung Mems National Convention Of
1870 her delegation pledged themselves that she would give
Harrison majority OF four thousand voies and she more
than redeemed her promise At the Clay State Convention
held in February last her delegation again pledged them
selves that she would give Clay majority Of FOUR THOU
FIVE HUNDRED VOTES III lSi9 ana she cdh a'iu WI"

The meeting was addressed by JAMES 5. WAL
LACE, and MonroN McMIcHAEL of Philadelphia,
Thomas E. COCHRAN (Senator) Of York. and A.
H. SMITH of Lancaster, whose remarks were hap
PLY conceived and responded to with enthusiasm.
The meeting adjourned at a late hour resolved to
commence Immediately the organization and ac-
iicn which are to secure Wing Governor next
year and the Electoral Vote of Pennsylvania to
HENRY CLAY.
The best feature Of this meeting was the hearty
cooperation of the Anti Masons OF that strong
and steadfast Anti Masonic County in the support
OF Mr. Clay. Nearly the whole Anti Masonic
strength Of the County participated III this move
ment, and there can no longer be doubt that the
entire anti Destructive force of Pennsylvania will
be united on Mr. Clay.
