EDS. GLITTER: As political meeting,
appear to be the4uling order Of the day,
have thought it not out Of order to give
YOU a brief account of one that was held in
the village of Bremen on Saturday last
Some days previous to the day Of meeting,
large handbills, announcing the meeting
and the speakers that might be expected to
address the people on the occasion. among
whom was mentioned the Hon L. b. Olds,
and otheI distinguished Democratic speak
ers of the day, with long and loud call TO
the Democrats particularly, and everybody
else, to turn out and hear the all-imporant
and exciting political topics of the day dis
cussed, that We, the people, might deter
mine for ourselves who among the many
that were seeking our votes this fall, were
really worthy to rscciye them. The first
speaker Offering to enlghten the benighted
voters OF old Rushcrepk upon the proper
course for Them to pursue If they wished
70 save our loyelcountry from desecra-
ton and ruin, was Newton, of the Pope 5
organ, who took his text from holy writ,
18Th chapter and 3llh verse OF Leyiticus,
dividing it into two propositions; FIRST, TO
prove that the dark-lantern, midnight
prowling party that had recently sprung
up in our county, was guilty Of palpable
violation of the law of God, in attempting
to opprcss the stranger that wished to So
iourn among US, &c. Second, that they
were gully Of moral treason, By swearing
to do open violence to the constitution and
laws of our country. How well he sue
ceedea in satisfying his audience that the
propositions of his text were true, is moi
for me to Judge; but one thing | am salts
fed he did prove to the full satisfaction o
all present, and that is, that he is not le
gqlly called minister to teach from Holy
! Writ any of its sacred truths, and we feal
from present prospects he never will be
unless he should repent and forsake tlH
error OF his ways. The next speaker ii
order was DR.. Griswold, who, after giving
us beautiful description of the valley ans
scenery between this and Lancaster, tolC
us how much we should feel ourselves il
debt to the foreign population OF our coun
; try for our internal Improvements, and
vast amount of our city wealth, DC; an'
how shameful it was to SEQ those harmless
and innocent Irish and Dutch prescribed
