A Striking Scene.

1t is impossible for any citizen of any of the oppress
ed nations OF the Old World to watch the progress of
politics this hemisphere without soon ascertanng that
the true advocates of enlightened progress and rational
liberty are to be found in the democratic party. The
moment such man steps upon shores he feels that
that is the party for him. and he awaits with eagerness
the lapse OF time necessary TO cothe him with the
cred OF the right Of suffrage recent scene took
place in Philadelphia, which shows how fervently this
sentiment is cherished by all the sincere lovers OF the
welregula,ed institutions of the only real republic on
the globe Ole Bull, long and welknown as an artist
Of unequaed ability and Of learning and of be-
nevoence naturalized by the courts of Philadelphia
1t is known that he purchased an immense tract OF
land in Potter county, Pennsylvania lovely region
Gently opened to enterprise by the neghborhood OF the
railroads of New York and Pennsylvania where he in
tends 10 invite the citizens OF Norway his fatherand
tha, they may plant in safety their vine, with none to
moest and 10 make them afraid. Before he was natural
lied, Ole Bull made the following remarks:
g desire be deemed worthy OF SO great privilege
and shall remit no efforts merit it. have sworn
allegiance the King OF Norway and Sweden nor to any
other potentate, have bowed the knee any
God;" (poning upwards, and his face beaming with all
that he ie within him) II shall value the privilege OF
citizenship above every other earthly object shall en-
dsavor introduce hundreds of thousands of my country
men to so great boon that they may also feel the great
difference between being citizen OF this glorious republic

Already have thousand Norwe2ians settled within
the limits OF this Commonwealth in its northern part and
hope that before another year expires many thousands
more will taste the blessings Of liberty in the locality

rights, and n the enjoyment Of in Pennsy vania"
Ole Bull is man OF large fortune. and is unusually in
elligen and wellinformed. We are enabled 10 state
upon the authority OF one OF his most intimate friends
that he is not democrat in theory alone, but will show
his practical OF his attachment to democracy by
voting and working for Pierce and King

The PURSE AND swoRD.--It was the in for
mer elections that the wings nightly alarmed
that the democrats should unite the purse and the sword
in The hands OF the Executive They argued that the
tablishmentp of the national treasury the virtual
union Of the purse and the sword the hands OF the Ex
ecutive Wing orators wers loud in proclaming the
dangers OF such a union The union OF the purse and
the sword in the hands emphatically what
constituted the monarch. They circulated the "docu
mens prove that this the fact and exhortsd the
people to beware.
WE'LL the national treasury is established the firm
est footing And what do the wings propose TO do
Why nothing less than unite the purse and
the sword in reality, II there any truth in their former
expressions II the election OF General Scott whose
y merit they confess is in hs sword, and his military
PLOTS the only claim TO the presidency, be not union OF
the purse and the sword, then there is such union
But the wings manifest alarm Nor have they
any just ground to be alarmed The democracy will see
that the purse and the sword far enough removed 10
satisfy the most ultra whg this subject They will
remove Gen Scott and his sword so far from the exec
uiive department that the purse and hs sword will
net yer be united in the same hands.

To the Editor of the Unio,

To the Editor of the Union;
The mass meeting of the democracy of good old Wau-
kesha, Wisconsin, of yesterday, and in point OF
numbers and enthusiasm exceeded our most confident
an,cipations At this the most busy season with our
agricultural people, was scarcely to be supposed The at
tendance would be large, they constituting large pro-
portion OF party. Besides, heavy rain was fall
ing at daybreak and this would Of itself interfere with
the arrival Of the country delegations
Most happily, the rain ceased about s. a. M and by IL
M, we had succeeded in raising our hickory pole, with
the stars and stripes floating at its summit By this time
delegations from every town in the county eighteen in
number) had arrived, many Of them in procession with
music and banners and displaying great enthusiasm They
welcomed with hearty cheers by assembled cti
zens, and returned them with goodwill.
AT g. p m, the meeting assembled at the courthouse
where procession was formed, and, headed by band
of music, proceeded to large new stone building near
the railroad. which in few moments was densely
crowded.
The meeting was organized by the appointing OF Geo
r. McLane, OF Delafed. chairman, eighteen vice pres
dents, and three secretaries Mr. McLane taking the
chair addressed the meeting briefly and effectively upon
the objects which bad brought them together.
He was followed by S. Park Coon, John White, H L.
Palmer and Charles James, Of Milwaukee, all of whom
delivered most able speeches Dr. Hubeschman, OF Mil
waake, followed IN German address, which was well
received by the large number of his countymen present
Perhaps the most interesting feature in the whole was
the speech OF John White of Milwaukee. This was the
gentleman TO whom the letter OF the Irish Catholics OF
Concord in relation to the religious test was written
and which letter concusvey settled franklin Perces
position upon that subject Mr. Whites influence among
his counrymen is very great and he in earnest. A
of resolutions unanimously adopted endorsing the
platform and nominees.
Altogether the gathering ausp;cious one, and
gives goodly promise OF future triumph feeling like
tha, which existed in the good times OF Jackson and
Polk prevailed. Say TO friends that the democracy
of Waukesha united upon the great question TO be
decided in November Oar judicial elections take place
this month"; and there i'll be sectional feeling mani
tested, but this will have effect upon the presidential
vote

THE WEBSTER MOVEMENT.

A Mass Meeting of the friends. of Daniel Web
ster was held in Boston on Wednesday last, at
which Webster Electoral Ticket was formed for
Massachusetts, Some $500 persons, it is stated,
were in attendance, and much enthusiasm prevail
ed. An able address, setting forth Mr. Websters
claims was read and unanimously adopted. We
shall give some extracts from the address in our
next
The New York Express having spoken of the
Webster movement as insignificant, the Day Book,
a Wing paper, thus responds:
you'll see, old fellow, whether it can succeed or
not Step into office and the string of names
we have in answer to the notice at the head of our
columns. Again
1.-The question is not Scott Webster, but Pierce,
and there is other questcn-there can be no 9TH
err
Well, Mr.. Brooks, will you tell US what we shall
gain the of wing principles if Scott is elect
ed Is it all the to the great body of the
wing party whether Pierce Scott gain the election
Wing office seekers, know, will gain if Scott
succeeds. So will Seward and Weed, and Greeley
and Mangum, and Jones and Bolts, but what will the
good old fashioned wings gain? Come. now, neigh
Dor, be candid and fair and tell honestly what they
will gain"
