HARRISBURG, Pa, Oct. !, 1856.
To-day was expected to have been great day
among he Sbamocracy OF Dauphln County For
weeks past immense posters, three feet wide and
six feet long. were scattered all over the country
around calling upon the faithful TO rally TO the
support Of the Constitution and the Union. and
promising eloquent addresses by Senator Allen OF
Ohio. the Uni0u-sayinS Cobb Of Georgia, the rene
cade Reed of Philadelphia, and other great lights
Of modern Shamocracy. The day came, cool,
dry and pleasant, all that the most ardent Buch:
areer could have desired; but alas the people ala
no, respond TO the call. Marshss on horseback,
and assistants without limit trggcd out in gay rib
bons and futtering badges were galoping through
the streets amid the firing VI cannon and waving
of banners, drumming up the thirsty, scattered
crew; and when they were oil assembled together,
men and boys naturalizcd and unnaturallzed, drunk
and sober they numbered just four hundred and
thirty all told, instead OF ten Thousand, AS had
been confidently predicted.
Tie meeting was to have been held in the Capt.
toll grounds but when the paucty OF the numbers
present was ascertained, the place was changed TO
the Market-HOuse and n stand erected; but even
there the completeness Of the hzzle would have
been so apparent that it was changed again to the
Hall of the House of Representatives, which was
not half filled when all with the exception of about
seyenty-fye of the German Buccaneers who assem-

addressed them in his best style, and If he and

would have thought that the German friends OF
Penusyl anias iayOrte would have been invited

appear to have thought that their iOregn-born as
sociates were not good enough to meet Ill such

Rest assured, that Pennsylvania will be
Ill right the l4th instant. Our Union State
ticket will be elected by at least from fifteen 10
twenty thousand majority. The people are with
US and they can be no longer guled and led by
tie nose by interested wire-pullers and hungry
offce-holders. The best informed and most candid

suit on the second Tuesday ofthis month"; and fsuch
he the case, nothing under heaven will prevent the
