THE GREAT MEETING,

On Tuesday of last week, was truly a
magnificent affair But for the rain, ii
would doubtless have been the grandest
gathering ever witnessed in the county
In the morning, soon after daylight, il
began to rain, and continued raining un-
til noon. But. Notwithstanding the
gloomy prospect, the Republicans were
sastir, and the "Wide-Awake Club, y
formed few days before, to the number
of about one hundred and twenty five,
started on horseback to meet the speak
ers at Rutland. They were there Joined
by others, and the procession returned
through the mud and rain to Pomeroy,
where they arrived at 109 o'clock. In
the meantime, the steamboat Condor
had gone down the river to Cheshire,
and the Baltimore up to Letart, and re-
turning, had gathered up the hundreds
at the various landings, until, on their
arrival here, they were literally crowded
with human freight Numbers, also,
came in from the country, but most were
detained by the rain. The place for
the meeting had been prepared in
beautiful grove, up Mayors Run, but
the rain and mud prevented its USE On
seeing the unexpected multitude, it was
determined to hold the meeting under
the broad roofs of the Pomeroy Rolling
Mill, and thither the crowds moved, and
were addressed by Hon. V. B. Horton,
in the forenoon, and Hon. John Sher-
man, in the afternoon.
Being very unwell, we were deprived
Of the pleasure of hearing the speeches,
except the opening sentences of the lat
ter. But from all classes of Republicans
we hear of but one opinion, and that is,
that they were among the ablest speeches
ever delivered in Pomeroy. There were
not=less thanathree thousand people in
attendance, and the impression made
was very favorable one. With such
-t q
men as Horton and Sherman before the
people, it would seem unaecountable to
hear of their defeat by the popular vote.
We think it cannot be. If the honest,
law and order loving citizens desire to
have a Representative in Congress who
can rise above the petty intrigues of
z. e.sE
partisan plumber, let them vote for Mr..
Horton. And we feel confident they
will SO vote, and elect him by a hand
some majority. We do not conceal the
fact that there is a heavy majority
against us in the District. But with
the changes that are taking place, and
the known characters of the candidates,
it would be an impeachment of the good
sense and patriotism of the people to
suppose they will fail to elect Mr.. Hor
ton to Congress. And they will not
fail to do it.

VERY DIRTY BUSINESS.

Those who have passed 'sLincoln
Hill, on the Rutland road, will remem-
bier the beautiful pole erected there some
weeks ago by the Republicans. 1t was
one of the finest poles ever erected in
the county, and with its beautiful flag
and streamer, could be seen for miles
up and down the Ohio River. AS it is
the practice of all parties to raise these
poles, it is never understood that an of
fenseils thereby intended to the opposite
party, and it is never looked upon as
such. But there are, if not in all, at
least in some parties, little, dirty, mean,
sneaking villains, such as prewl about
negro cabins to steal unprotected chill
dren, to sell to their richer accomplices,
and whose perverted natures revolt at an
honorable act Some of these night
prowling, petty raseals, whether by the
impulse of their own low propensities,
or instigated by meaner, because more
cowardly scoundrels, who kept at a safe
distance, we are not advised, on the
night before the great Sherman meeting,
performed the feat of boring down this
beautiful pole. The dastards, no doubt,
had the partisan $ zeal against the Re-
publicans-the incendiary's impulse to
destroy the property they could not
steal, and the thiefs propensity to pilfer
the flag; but they had also the towards
instincts, stronger than all the rest
For, having accomplished the destrue-
ton of the pole, by boring it down, the
poltroons, fled in such haste that they
left their tools behind. =. -.
In Virginia, recently,ca a military com
pany of some 400 Democrats, armed to
the teeth, achieved the chivalric feat of
cutting down Republican pole in day
light. The difference between their act
and that Of the destroyers Of this pole
illustrates the difference between-Well,
We won't say just what we came very
near saying-but it certainly does Illus
trate the difference between some people.
Honest.folks don't like the operation of
being plundered by any class of crimi-
mails, but the bold, daring robber, who
stops you in open daylight, does not ex-
cite the utter contempt which you feel
for the sncaking, cowardly thief, who
crawls to your desk under cover of dark
ness, and pliers its contents. Both are
wings of the same party-both stand on
the same platform both aim at the
same end, and if their purposes can be
more efectually accomplished they can
fuse as examples might demonstrate
We dc not suppose that any decent
Democrat had anything to do with the
dirty business; but, to pretend to believe
that Republicans did the act, is not the
surest way for some gentlemen to con
vince the public that they did not par
ticipate in the thing themselves. Better
make a note of this.

gA- The Mass Meeting at Athens last
week was the grandest affair of the kind
ever held in the County. Sherman and
Horton were the speakers. The Wide
Awakes made grand display. A long
procession of girls carried a transparency
inscribed "Abe's Girls, which was one
of the features. Athens promises 1 900
maj ority for Horton, and she will redeem
her promise.

A B@ 1t is with extreme pleasure we
refer to an advertisement in to days pa
per, announcing the opening of the
'sTupper's Plains Seminary Upon the
proper education and training of the
rising generation depends the future of
our country, and every facility for such
training ought to be hailed by every
friend Of humanity. The Principal, Mr..
Edwin Keys, is, as we are informed, an
accomplished scholar and very success
full and popular educator, He is, more
over, gentleman of great energy and
perseverance; and we congratulate the
citizens of that beautiful village upon
theacquisition ofsuch an Institution, with
such head, to the other attractions of
their place. We know Of no other
point in our county which has seemed
to US more attractive, as combining the
advantages of both country and village
life, than Tuppers Plains; and its Sc
lection as the seat of q Seminary,
by such a gentleman as Mr.. Keys,
speaks stronger than anything We could
say in favor of che cultivation and lib :
eral spirit Of the citizens.
We intend to visit the place before
long, when we hope to become better
informed as to the enterprise and its
prospects, and will then be able to give
a more extended notice than we have
time or means Of doing now: In the
meantime, we trust the Institution will
meet with such liberal patronage as
will secure it's permanancy and extended
usefulness.

Governor Letcher, of Virginia, has
come out for Douglas This will un-
doubtedly give that State to Bell and
Everett. Last year, on a long and ear
nest contest for Governor, the united
Democracy only carried the State by
some six thousand over the Americans.
We have thought ever since the split in
the party that if Douglas could take of
ten thousand Democratic votes it would
secure the State to Bell; but we did not
suppose he could get 10000. Douglas
is now stumping Virginia in person, and
with the acquisition of Governor Letcher
to his side, we would not be surprised il
he should receive, even more than ten
thousand votes in the State. IF he does,
it efectually defeats Breckinridge, and
gives the State to Bell
