Democratic Meetings.

The Democratic meetings throughout the
county, thus far, have been well attended.
In New Athens quite an enthusiastic meet
ing was held on last Thursday evening, which
was ably addressed by Mcssrs. CASTOR, Pep

give a good account of herself on next Tues
day and the first Tuesday Of November.
In Moorefed, on last Saturday evening,
Messrs. Peppard and Forsythe addressed ii
large meeting of the Democracy chinatown
ship. Great eatRpsiasm prevailed, and all
seemed eager for the contest that was TO
come off on next Tuesday. She will come
off victorious on that day, and on the first
Tuesday in November. Mark that.
A large meeting was held in Freeport on
the same evening. The Presbyterian church
Of that place was full of Democrats. Messrs
Lewton and Castor gave two of the abest
addresses that has been delivered in that
place for many long day. The. Democracy
Of Frceport are all right, and are ready to
cast their ballots at any moment.
In fine, all thS meetings that have been
held within the past week, have been large
and enthusiastic, and Mcssrs. Pcppard, Lew
ton, Forsythe and CASTOR are doing good
service for the Democracy Of Harrison coun-
ty. Cheer'Vp, Democrats of Harrison conn-
ty, a brighter day is dawning upon you. A
unanimous effort on the part Of her Democ,
racy on next Tuesday, will leave whiggery
in this county where it was before 1910. ur

10 THE Ep1roR OF THE SFNTINE4;

statement by the editor that it is currently
reported and pretty generally believed, that
! have bolted and refused to vote for Frank
lin Pierce because | consider him unfit to
discharge the important duties Of the office
fer which he is candidate. 1t is true |
have said that | could not conscientously
support Franklin Pierce, but not because
consider him incompetent, or that his politi
cal views on many leading questions are at
war with mine; he is all right, with but one
exception, the slavery question, very con-
siderable item in my estimation; but let those
who want a better, a safer, a more demo-
cratic administration Of this government,
vote for Pierce and King in preference to
Scott and Graham. They are alike on the
slavery question, while the latter are in fa-
vor Of monopoles and exclusive advantages,
tAe legitimate result of which is to fortfy
and strengthen those who are already strong,
and make these that are already wenll more
so. J. X. THOMAS.

LIES
CG.1 T,Eas4E9ECTED.

Hatton last week blowed and pulled about
Messrs. Peppard, Lewton and DIR. Thomas
leaving the Democratic party, and that they
did not intend to vote for Gen. Pierce. The
following letters from those gentlemen will
show what dependence Can be put in Hat
tons word on any political subject. We
advise Richard when he wishes to tell anoth-
Ier yarn, to tell something that has some face
about it, and not such a one as the article in
his last paper headed "more bolters." Read,
Iieemen read, and then mark the slaRdereF:
For the Sentinel.
Mr.. ALLEN:--My attention has been cal
led TO an article in the last "Cadiz Republi.
cam" under the head of "more boilers" in
which the editor of that paper says that it is
currently reported that Hon. S. q. Peppard,
Lewis Lewton. and DIR. Thomas have con
cluded not to support Gen. Pierce for the
Presidency because of his unfness for that
Office.
Having long been to some extent, an ad-
yocate of anti slavery principles, have
Frequently strongly expressed my disappro-
baton Of the endorSemeuto of the compromise
measures by the convention that nominated
Pierce in Baltimore. From this circum-
stance doubtless the report alluded to was
raised. But having now, so far as | have
been able to do, maturely considered the
principles involved in the present contest be-
tween The two great political parties of this
country, and the probable consequences OF
the success of the one Or the other of them,
| cannot consent to endanger even to the ex-
tent of one vote, the success of the great
principles Of Democracy, by Withholding my
support from the Democratic nominees
While, therefore, | still greatly dislike the
endorsement of tie compromise measures
and object to their being forced upon us as
any part Of the Democratic creed, | shall
nevertheless, for reasons satisfactory to my
own mjEd, give my support to the Demo.
cratic Candidates Pierce and King.
Respectfully yours, &c.,
L. LEWTON.

That time and experience have demon@
strsted the soTndness and justice of the exs
istng Democratic Taritf-that it has rsplen-
ished the National Treasury, and that all
the great interests Of the country have pros-
pered under its operations.
Bearit in Mind,
That tthe present Democratic Sub Treasury
has, also, undergone the test of time and
experimenting it has been fairly weigh
ed in the balance" and not "fo und wanting
and it has proved to be the safest and most
efficient agency ever employed for managing
the finances Of the Government.
Bear it in Mind,
That if General Scott is elected President,
and the wings obtain the control Of the Gena
eral Government, they will repeal both the
Tariff and the SubyTreasury; and they will
establish in the, place Of the former, the,
odious Tariff Of l842, and instead Of the
latter, monster United States Bank.
Bear it in Mind,
That if General Pierce is elected to the
Presidency, the government will be restored
to its wanted Constitutional yigor. and that
economy ip, the public expenditures will be
practised, in order that "labor may be ligtlY

The Meeting on the Dist ult.

The Democratic meeting which was held
in this place on the 21st ult., has caused
great futering amongst the whig leaders in
Cadiz. Col. Aliens speech they could not
reply to, therefore they must turn in and
abuse him. No one is surprised at it, for
that is very common thing with whiggery.
Hatton says the meeting was very SLIM
" attended. Well, that would be easily
accounted for, it were true. The Democratic
Central Committee had but one weeks notice
of the meeting, and there was but one num-
of the paper 10 announce the meeting in
That number Of the paper, owing to some
mismanagement Of the post Office in this
place, never reached the westeren portion
of this county, until several days after the
meeting. twas over ten days getting to
its place of destination. We won't say the
Cadiz postmaster was blame altogether tor
this but he was in part, A majority of the
people in Nottingham, Mooreteld Freeport
and Washington townships never heard tell
of the meeting until twas over. As it was.
we had very respectable meeting, Gas large
as the whig meeting in this place on last
Wednesday, an excellent speech---one that
struck terror to whiggery in these diggings
and one that will tell on the first Tuesday
Of November. Hatton's allusion to the Ed.
itor of this paper is incorrect. We never
thought of the language that he charges us
with using. But, Richard can tell some
whoppers about election times, and his ac-
count of the Democratic meeting is good
specimen of them. ~

Gen. Scott at Circleville-Evi-
dence Of bis kind heartedness.

The House Line favor us with despatch
which states that at Circleville, large nun.
Der of persons assembled to welcome Gen.
ScoFF, and he returned their welcome with
brief and happy speech. Yesterday morn
ing Gen. ScoTT drove out to see Mr.. FKL-
LERs, the German whs was injured by the
premature expulsion Of the canon at Col
umbus, and gave his wife $50. Afterwards
on hearing OF the death Of the unfortunate
man, he sent-hi widow check for -Four
Hundred Dsllars.- ClerelaHd Herald Sept,
23.
EgThe above. which we find going the
rounds of the whig papers, is specimen Of
the electioneering that the whig party are
doing to show the liberalitv and kindheart-
edness Of their candidate. Now let us have
the truth of this matter. The Statesman in
speaking about it says:
Infamous Electioneering----W;ll
Greely mark this!
1t was reported by the wings in lying
dispatches to the New York Tribune, and
other eastern papers, that Gen. Scott had
paid the widow of the German killed by the
explosion of the canon on his reception here,
S4OO.
The same story was circulated in this
city, and that the wigs had raised in add.
tion about the same amount.
But the truth in this instance is really
stranger than fiction, just whig like, for thi,
morning we were called upon by the Ger
man friends of the widow for aid, as she wa.
actually in great need.
This is one of the most infamous and
heartless proceedings on record. A bast
lie was not only manufactured for poltica
purposes, but it prevented many from aid
ing her immediate necessities, supposing tha
there was at least some truth in whig store,
on so melancholy an occasion. But the re
ality, startling as it is, turns out to be tha
the widow and her ousehold of little child
rem were in actual want, while the base fab
ricatiQns were circulating over the country
for the meanest electioneering purpose. W.
hope the Democrats will at once step for
ward and do that which whiggery has faileC
to do Shame upon such scoundreism.
Now, fellow citizens, what do you thnl
of a party that would be guilty such mode
of electioneering? Doyou think they art
worthy Of confidence or fit to be trusted?
