TIE Democratic County Meeting Total
Destruction of the Sentinel O6fce.-Part
of the Argus OfSee Destroyed.-Peace
and Compromise Repudiated.
We learn, from the Northampton Journal,
that Immediately after the reading of the
resolutions at the Democratic meeting, held
at Easton, on Monday afternoon last, there
was disapprobaton manifested in the crowd,
which was increased soon after Col. Johnson
commenced making speech in response to
call made upon him. 1t is also said that
the Colonels expressions Of sympathy for the
rebels were so strong as to call forth a re-
buke from one of the Associate Judges a
loyal democrat, who was present. After he
had concluded his speech, citizen was call
ed upon to make reply, but was not allow
ed to do SO. This added fuel to the excite
ment, and after the ad djournment of the meet
ing, fight took place at the American Ho-
tel, where pistols were drawn.
Early in the evening several hundred per-
sons assembled in front of Col. Johnson's re,
sdence in the Square and burnt his efigy.--
They would have scuttled his house, but for
the presence of his family and Of several Re-
publcans.
The mob next proceeded to the Sentinel
Office whico they gutted completely. All
The printing materials and furniture were
;hrown into the street and burnt.
The next movement was for the Argus Of
fce where after demolishing some furniture
and pying some type, the mob yielded to the
opportunities of gentleman who, with the
stars and stripes in hand, assured the crowd
that Mr.. Hutter would, within twenty-four
hours, make satisfactory declaration.
The Correspondent Office was next in or
der. Here the crowd was very large. Mr..
Cole, the editor, flung out the Union Banner,
appeared at the window, and declared that
he was for the Union and for the Federal
Government "right or wrong" Having
come down so fatty he was permitted to pass
Calls were then made successfully on Ex-
Senator Brodhead, Mr.. Hutter, and on Mess
Schuyler, prosecuting attorney, Benedict,
George Able, o. H. Myers, John Sletor, and
Judge Stein, who severally appeased the-mob
by the display of the stars and stripes, or by
the expression of Union sentiments.
