taxes about to be levied to pay the expenses
Of suppressing the rebellion. Without
money the Government couldn't move a
step, and jeff Davis and his associate trait

carry death and desolation throughout the

levied on it. Is that what you want, Mr..

n0-SEatous ArrRAY.-On Saturday

na-SERIOUs AFFRAY.-On Saturday,
while some young men from town were re-
turning from the picnic at Loydsvile, a
serious affair took place at the Great Wes-
tern between them and young man by the
name of Wright. Wright claims, we be-
lcve, that he was assaulted and beaten by
the party, consisting of eight or ten persons.
Afterwards, mistaking VIM. Riggs for one
Of the party that had been engaged in the
assault upon him, he struck him severe
blow about the ear with limestone. Riggs
was brought to town the same evening, and
has since been insensible, and fears are en-
tertained by the physicians that he will not
recover. Wright was arrested on Monday,
had hearing before Esq Jones, "and was
committed to Jail, to await an examination
before the Court of Common Pleas.

of Mead" ... =. h.
Mr.. EDITOR: Pursuant to announcement,
large collection of people assembled at
Businessburg on Saturday afternoon, 3lst
ult., for the purpose of listening to the
speeches of Z. b. Rowles and d. Truman,
and also, to recruit company of volunteers,
which is being raised through the active ex-
ertions of Messrs N. M. Fowler, James
Welsh and Il. B. Rowles. ....--l
The meeting was organized by electing j.
W. Highleynan, Esq, President, John
Porterfield, Esq, Vice President, and S. l..
Brce, Sec '.a' 'dt
The President made some very appropri-
ate remarks, calling the attention of the
audience to the fact that they were assem-
bled under peculiar circumstances-tha they
had not met to discuss party politics and
electioneer for partisan candidates, but to
respond TO the call of the country and raise
volunteers to go forth in. defense of the Gov
ernment. Is. r., 4 ....
He then introduced Mr.. Rowles to the
audience, who made strong and animated
Union speech, showing that the rebellion
had not grown out of faithlessness, on the
part Of the General Government to her citi.
zens--that she had not committed some
great act of criminality against her people,
causing them to declare themselves tout Of
the Unicn," and then appeal to arms tc
sustain their treacherous position. He fully
disposed Of the cry that the "South has
been denied their just rights, under the
| Constitution. !" He maintained that this h
war, on our part, to defend CONSTITUTIONS
Liberty--a contest to sustain the Freedom
Of Speech and those great principles of Lib
erty, which our Revolutionary Fathers
fought to obtain. He urged all loyal citiaons
to stand by the flag of the Union and guard
it till the last armed foe expires.
Mr.. Truman was then introduced, and
made one Of those interesting, eloquent and
patriotic speeches which is so characteristic
OF him. He went on to show that there
was material difference between the pres.
ent war &those that have preceded it. He wa.
in favor. OF jealous prosecution of the war
rather than see the Constitution subyerted
the Government overthrown and the country
demoralized. He showed the great neces
sity Of laying aside party prgudices and
uniting to sustain the Government. He
earnestly appealed to the young men to %
forth 10 defense Of the honor and interests
Of their country; and it was his earnest wish
that rebellion and treason might be crushed
out and our glorious Star Spangled Banner
ho uld wave in triumph from the snow clad

n0THE Picnic AT LoYDsvILLE.--The
picnic at Loydsvillc on last Saturday was
splendid affair. We reached the ground a
little after 10 o'clock, and found very large
crowd Of patriotic men and women already
there. A splendid platform had
been erected in the beautiful grove, and at
an early hour the large concourse of people
was called to order by DR., VIM. Estep, who
nominated Mr.. VIM. Lee, of Union Town.
ship, for Chairman, and D. H. Williams,
Esq, Of York Township, for Secretary -
Judge Cowen was then introduced by the
chairman, who addressed the crowd for a
wmoments in relation to the great disap-
pointment felt by all present in not being
entertained with speeches from Gov. Pier.
pont and Senator Calile, Of Virginia, who
were confidently expected. Clifford Arick,
Esq, was called upon the stand, and was
proceeding to address the assemblage, when
he was interrupted by the marching of the
returned volunteers upon the platform, and
gave way to Rev. s. Y. Kennedy. who,
though called upon without a moment
warning, and without any time for prepara.
ton. made the speech of welcome I'd the vol.
unteers. W.S. Kennon, Esq, was then called
to the stand, who delivered the best speech
OF the day. Mr.. Kennon handled the trait.
ors without gloves. He drew thrilling
picture Of the terrible ordeal through which
our Government is now passing, and in i'm
passioned tones invoked the people to stand
by it with their blood and their treasure. II
was . glorious speech, and We would to God
evszy man, woman and child in the county
could have heard it. Capt Tallman wa.
calledlupon the stand, who complimented
highly the officers and men under his com
mand in Western Virginia. At this point
dinner was announced, when, escorted by
our St. ClairsvilS Brass Band, the volun
teers were marched to the table, which wa,
bountsously spread with the choicest ane
richest Injuries. Upon several of the larg,
cakes upon the table we observed the mos
