make thcii demonstration appear iorni-
doblc Accordingly all the wagons and
vehicles thnl could b. obtained about town
we,e gathered together about suudown,
and as many fthe people attending court
as could be induced to Join, together with
our "yomg America generally, were
loaded up, and carried out of town. When
| Il Tos sufficiently dark to hide this rather
Iyerlant attempt to cheat, these vehicles
returned in company with the delegation
from Curwcnsyille--ihe whole, to casu
al observer, making truly formidable
display; but, upon c!oscinspection, II was
but an array of amply cagoDL Instead Of
voters, they carried rails, and they
could get two or three men into a wagon,
so rs to handle rail or two--for which
we fear some of our farmers fences must
have suilered-thcir aim was accomplish
ed. In this rt tspect they made twice the
Slo,c the Democrats did the night before,
who made no attempt whatever at a false
display. This fact was made appa>
rcnt when the meeting organized-oocu-
pyinc the same ground-tut occupying
quite small portion Of the street, rs
compared with the jam the night before,
although a large wagon was placed oppo-
site the stand, as if to help fill up.
The Rqtto,das journal having previously
arranged all the officers of The meeting
soon mounted the stand pulled paper out
of his pocket and told the people that
Hon T. 3. DAVIS was the President ofthe
meeting, with long list Of Vice
Presidents and Secretaries, among
whom are some OF the eldest and
most radical abolitionists to be found
anywhere.
Mr. GoRDoN, the Black Republican can
didate for Assembly, was tie frs! speak
er, of course he said nothing new, and no
body appeared the least sorry when he
quit.
Gen. PATTON, bsing called upon, APP
peared upon the stand, and told the au.
dience tha. he would not make 4 speech
for the very good reason that he could
not.
The General said tha! he was Repub>
lcan, heartily endorsed the Chicago plat
form, and was in favor of the election OF
Lincoln, IIamlin and Curtin-none Of
which parts had ever been doubted.
Next came the rather notorious W, W.
Brown better known perhaps as apple
dumping Brown Of Bellefonte. lie is
awfully full orwind, and as speakers seem
ed 70 be scarce on Ibis occasion, Brown
was in clover, lie had the whole field, as
we'll as the night, to himself, and well he
improved the opportunity. This audi.
ence had to bear the awful inhiction of
his terrible harrlngue, for at least two
mortsl hours! Brown used to be an ins
tensiIed American regular Simon pure
Know Nothing, he had less use for Cath
olic or foreigner than he had for the
devil.
When we state that he had the barbo.
rous Helper Book" for his text, from
which he read the garbled extracts there
in complied from the works Of jefferson,
&C., our readers will have a sufficient de.
scription of his speech
II we are not mistaken, Mr. Brown pub
lished copious extracts from this incendia,
ry work last spring, endorsed it a, fully as
any other man in the State We were
only astonished tina; such sentiments
could be altered before an audience in
| lClearhelH county without exciting a per.
feet storm Of indignation.
Foster can be Elected.
! There is every reason to believe that
Henry d. Foster will be elected Governor
OF Pennsylvania by a large majority, as he
will receive the votes Of all the conserva-
I tive parties in the State opposed TO the
/ Republicans. Indeed, when we consider
the conservatism of Pennsylvania we do
not know how any other result than the
election Of Foster can be regarded as pro.
bable. The Republican party has alway:
been in minority, and Andrew G.. Cur.
sin is the candidate of that party and o
that party alone. Look at the vote in Is
