true to the interest of the State, true to the
instincts of freedom and of justice, trampled
this 10Th section into the Dust where it be-
longs. Our party is. as it was last year, op-
posed to the temporal dominion of the Pope,
opposed to the corruption and debasement of
the old political parties, and opposed to the
Nebraska bill, and the extension of Slavery
This is the issue-the greatest and the most
pressing issue--now before the peo pie. Let
us lead them in every county, in every town
ship in every precinct, under this glorious
flag of truth, and justice, and humanity, and
we shall see the flag in October, as We saw it
last year, when the battle is over, floating over
a triumphant and victorious host and our
principles, and our party, will be established
as the Party and the Principles of the people
of Pennsylvania.

A SrABB1sG SoRApE.-A fracas occurred on
SATURDAY. last, a short distance from town, be-
tween Benjamin Carr, and Nathan Trude, IN
the course of which the latter was stabbed with
a pitch-fork, which pierced the right arm and
lung, causing very dangerous wound, from
which, it thought for while, he would
not recover. We understand hopes are now
entertained of his recovery. Carr was bound
over on Monday, for his appearance at Court,
and we therefore forbear to give any statement
of the facts, until after the trial.

RAILROAD MEETING.-On yesterday, and last
evening large and enthusiastic meeting of
the friends of the Tyrone, Clearfeld, and Erie
Railroad assembled in the Court House. 1t
was organized by calling the Hon. JOHN C.
MONTGOMERY, of Philadelphia, to the chair,
and electing SAMUEL CLoYD, DAVID JOHNSTON,
Esq, WIN. IRWIN, Esq. Hon. RICHARD SHAW,
Hon. j. P .HoYT, and BENZ. HARTsHoRN, Vice
Presidents. D. w. Moore and H. B. Swoope
were elected Secretaries.
The President being called upon, stated the
object of the meeting in a brief and happy ad-
dress, when Mr.. JAS. E. MONTGOMERY, the En-
gineer who surveyed the route of the project
ed road, was called upon and addressed the
meeting. During his remarks he made the
following estimate of the value of the stock,
showing the nett profit to be over twelve per.
cent. on the whole amount:
Estimating the Capital Stock at 81 900, 900
Coal transported annually, 100000
tons at 3cts per ton, Tor % miles, 202, 500
Lumber, 20, 900 900 it,, %, 900 tons
at Bets per ton for 80 miles, 22.5OO
Passengers, IL 900, at ST per head, II 900
Local freight, &c, 10000
Total, $256, 900
Deduct so per cent. for expenses, 12S, 900
Nett profit, S12s, 900
The meeting was successively addressed by
Judge BURNSIDE, Col. CURTIN, Hon. J. T.
HALE, Judge BARRErT, and others. During
the speaking, the books were opened and
large number of shares of the stock were ta-
ken by those present.
On motion it was resolved that the condi-
tion of the subscriptions be altered from ten
thousand shares, to three thousand.
Judge HALE stated that the Morgan compa-
ny, with which he is associated, would COM
mence subscription with $4,000, and that
another company beside them would subscribe
$4,000, both of them independent of the Phil
ipsburg subscription, which is $4,000.
1t was resolved that the commissioners named
in the charter, canvass the different townships
IN the county for subscriptions of stock, to re-
port at meeting to be held in this place on
the Thursday evening of the regular term of
our court, which will be the Goth inst.
After brief and appropriate address from |
the President, the meeting adjourned, having |
first given . hearty cheer for the Tyrone, !
Clsaifsld, and Erie RaiiYoxd

THE LoCoFoCo FIzzLE.-PurSuant TO their
widely circulated call, the Locofocos held a
meeting last night in the Court House. We
were not present, but are informed that there
were actually serenteen men present who did not
belong to the X. N's We understand that
Judge BARRETT made his accustomed stereo-
typed Speech detailing, as usual, his long and
laborious services TO the party, and giving the
history of his exploits on the stump since
Clearfield was first a county. He appeared to
be laborng under the impression that they
were clicked community He thought they
had 'falen upon strange times, and seemed to
think they were lost in bog, and couldn't
find the way out. The Judge is about the on
ly politician in their party, and his speech last
night showed clearly that he knew they were
defeated.
The Judge was followed by Mr.. l.. J. GRAMS,
who told his Democratic brethren that he had
came very near falling into the quag-mire of
Know Notbingism, but fortunately he was yet
"alive to tell the tale'' that he still belonged
to the great Locofoco party. How was it
Lewis: were you blacll-ballcdl
A long series of resolutions were passed
which, we suppose, will be published in the
s'orgin." We are told they are exceedingly
'srich, rare, and racy.''
The meeting wa. brought to close by
miserable attempt at speech from some poor
creature, whom our reporter didn't know. He
said he was a Doctor, and we suppose he was
employed to try and galvenize into life the
dead carcass of the Locofoco party. From the
quantity of filth he discharged, he must have
taken dose of his own pills before he COM
menced, and we hope he is convalescent now,
since the load is off his stomach. We are told
he challenged the sGrand Instructor to pub
lie discussion, but as he is entirely too small
