NEW ARRANGEMENT

We have come to the determination to sell
goods at cash prices, without putting on any ex-
ira profit as an Offset for bad debts. Any per-
son dealing with credit, will receive a
pass-book, except when we have a different un-
derstanding, and will expect all accounts to be
settled by payment or note at the end of six
months and these terms viii be rgidly adhered
to. BY doing business in this manner, we hope
to sell more goods, and at cheaper rates. To
those who purchase for cash we will always
make difference of six per cent, except flour
and bacon, which must always be nett cash,
without credit to any one.

The speaking was opened by Col. WARD, inhs usual
feictous style. Free discussion had been invited, and
two Democratic speakers heard, to whom Major
Finley and Col Ward respectively replied and thus the
entire day consumed At night, the Wings again
assembled at the Methodist Church. and addressed
by COL Breedin of Mobile in heightened and logical
speech The speaking through the day interrupted
only by the abundant repast provided for the occasion

GREAT MEETING AT LANCASTER.

LANCASTER, (PA.) SEPTEMBER 1.-THE Wing
demonstration of yesterday will long be remembered
by the citizens of Lancaster. 1t was truly form-
dable outpouring of the masses Nothing of the
kind of the extent has taken place in this city
for many years. The banners, the flags, the music,
and the many stirring incidents, served to rouse a
degree of enthusiasm that will not soon be forgotten
All the neighborng counties were fully represented
and particularly Dauphin and Philadelphia There
could not have been less than eighteen or twenty
Chippewa or Scott and Graham Clubs in attendance.
The cold Guard was there in all her strength,
fully alive to the merits of the cause and the cand
dates, and determined to make an extraordinary eff
fort as well in October as November
The procession at midday, headed by DAVID MIL
LER Esq., excited much attention and watched with
interest by large portion of the community 1t Of
immense length and the rank and file could be count
ed by hundreds but by thousands There three
meetings in all. One presided by Mr.. KusKLE, of
Dauphn, another by Mr.. CoRNYN of Huntington, while
in the evening there immense concourse at the
Courthouse. The opening address of Mr.. KUNKLE was
truly eloquent and spirit stirring So also that of Judge
CONRAD in the evening The speaking generally
cellent and the demonstration, from first to last was
such cannot fail to give impulse to the cause,
not only in Lancaster bat throughout the whole State.
The hearts Of the people with the Old Hero who has
chosen by the Wings their standard bearer and
this will be made fully manifest at the polls.

THE PROSPECT.

The New York DAY Book" journal opposed
to the Wing nominee for the Presidency in its issue
Of Monday last, begins article entitled g The
Election" with the following remarks:
"There is denying that Gen. StoTrs prospects are
growing brighter aud his friends confident OF his
success The apathy that every where prevailed during
the summer months is giving way to excitement and
enthusiasm Our exchange papers from Kentucky Ten
nessee, Ohio Indiana, and Michigan contain glow
ing accounts Of enthusiastic Scott meetings and Wings in
each State confidently their power carry all Of
those States for Scott Michigan Gen. Casss State it is
believed by them, will surely 60 for the hero of all the
wars we ever had There any number of Preesoler
in Michigan who will vote the Wing ticket and with their
popular candidate for Governor there is great probability
that the State will go for Scott
1T is useless to shut eyes the truth and that
there has been great change in the aspect of things
within the last few weeks one can deny"

NORTH CAROLINA

The Democratic presses, not content with claim
ing VIRGINIA and other Southern States which
have heretofore given Democratic votes, are claim
ing with great assurance old Wing States of the
South, and, among the rest NORTH CAROLINA.
The Danvle Register, in a late article on this sub
ject presents some instructive and interesting re-
mnscences 1t reminds the Democrats that they made
just as extravagant boasts when in 1910 the gallant
MoREHEAD swept the State by thousands They attrbu
ted his to his great personal popularity And
yet in the succeeding November" says the Register
'only three months after, Gen. HARnIsoSs majority
was increased Gov. MoREHEAD's by some four
thousand
Again, in 1874 Mr. CIaYs vote was greatly increased
over that Of Gov, GRAHAM in the preceding August.
1t is really amusing the confident predic-
ITEMS of the Democratic press Of North Carolina in Au
gust 1s4s with their fulfment in November of that
year. Here are few of those predictions made by
the Raleigh Standard, the organ Of the party:
FROM THE STANDARD OF AUGUST AND SEPTEMBER, 1S4s.
"Felow- Democrats Of the Union, what do you think
Of old North Cardinal We knew that your hearts
were with us, and that you hoped would hold our
own; but you could not anticipate we did that
should send such dismay and CONSERVATION among the
Taylor in this stronghold of Federalism. Put US
dorm at once for Cas- and Butler"
"As Democrat speaking to Democrats, and as friend
to friends, say to you ght and fight boldly! Day
READY AsoEsDs THE HEAVENS! We know you can, and
we hope you yiun
"The New York Express is sadly in the dark about the
eight thousand majority in this State for Taylor
and Fillmore The people Of this State hard to move
but when they start they 90 ahead until their
wishes are accomplished. NORTH CAROLINA WILL
CAss BUTLER Put that in your pipe and smoke
il, Mr.. Erpress."
"Hcnceforth the Wings doomed Cass and Butler
win sweep the State in November, and Federalism will
then die out for good and all, in North Carolina"
Startle not honest reader when we tell you that in
the face Of these confident and braggar prophecies made
just after the State election in which the majority Of the
Wing Governor Manly less than thousand the
vote Of the State was GIVEN TO GENERAL TAYLOR BY
MAJORITY OF NEARLY THOUSAND
And thus 1t win be in 1852. Notwithstanding all the
boosting and the many representations the contrary
put forth by the Democratic press and party North Caro-
lima will assuredy November comes GIVE VOTE
TO Scorr AND GRAHAM
We feel strong faith in the Wings Of North Carolina
They never have failed and viii fail the Wing
They will enthusiastically sustain WINFIELD scorr and
their Industrious son, Wm. A. GRAHAM, q undetermined
gentleman and statesman against whose unsuhed fame
even his political enemies cannot bring accusation.

GEN. SCOTT AT PITTsBURG.

The Pittsburg Gazette contains short sketch of
the speech delivered by Gen. ScoTT to the Wings
of that city on Saturday evening. After stating
that he thanked them for the enthusiastic welcome
they had given him, and referring to his youthful
aspirations to do something for the advantage of his
country, in which, through the appreciation of his
countrymen, he had been in some measure success
full, the sketch in the Gazette continues:
He then spoke of Pennsylvania, and expressed his
grateful emotions for the signal in which she has
always manifested her friendship for the humble soldier
who had been frequently honored in leading her gall
liant citizens to battle He reverted the gallant soldiers
