The MEETING LAST NIGHT.--The ''peo-
ple's' democratic meeting, held in Mechan-
les Hall, last night, was called to order by
Charles B. Pratt, Esq. Hon. Isaac Davis
many republicans being curious to see and
hear this particular elephant. The speakers
were Linus Child and Elihu C. Baker, who,
when he was Il Gardner know nothing, used to
talk so abundantly about the 'Scarlet Wo-
man" and the ''Great Red Dragon" Judge
Abbott did not come, and Baker was sent to
represent him.
Mr.. Child gave the audience pretty much
the same speech that he delivers in other
places, full of attacks on senator Sumner and
the republican party, in which misreprcsenta-
tons, disregard of facts, and false accusa-
tons, were abundant; and there was also
perceptible progress toward the doctrines
of the resolves adopted by the demo-
cratic state convention. 1t was noticed
that Mr.. Child did not read or explain those
letters written by himself, in which he eulo-
gized senator Sumner for his great practical
ability, and the fidelity and thoroughness Of
his attention to the manufacturing interests of
Massachusetts.
Mr.. Baker spoke in a similar strain, and
also reviewed the proceedings ola convention
held in Worcester, five or six years ago. He
did the best he could in favor of the party
in which he has taken service, and seemed
ready to follow those who follow Vallandig-
ham, the file leader of the conservative SEN
timent"

Startling disclosures.

We call attention to the article on the
outside of to-day's JOURNAL, exposing the
ritual, password, signs &c, of a reasonable
secret society existing in this State. The
indianapolis Journal states that lodge Of
that society has been organized in Evans
vile. We do not believe the assertion, but
would advise loyal men to keep their eyes
open, and if possible hunt out the treason
able organization, if by aay chance it has
gained a foothold among US. The man who
would subscribe to the oath published by
the Journal, as the obligation of this new
society, deserves the death of traitor, and
we are mistaken if there are not in this
city, stout and loyal arms enough to hang
all such emissaries of JEFF. Davis, without
judge or jury, or "the benefit of clergy.
The miscreant who would thus secretly
assist the armed enemies of the government,
in this crisis of her destiny, deserves to
be hung like dog to the nearest limb.
The Evansville daily journal., 1862-01-01

BRThe pleasant custom of exchanging
"New Years Calls" will doubtless be fol-
lowed to-day by the gentlemen, though its
observance will scarcely be as general as
heretofore. Many families who have hith-
erto kept "open houses" will not receive
calls to-day. The extravaganza of past
years, in providing entertainment for
guests, has had the effect to close many
houses to-day, where the inmates would be
happy to receive their friends, but are una
BILE or unwilling to furnish such "table,"
as is considered necessary amid the supper
circles" The custom of providing for
callers, upon New Years Day, everything
eatable and drinkable to be had in the mar
ket, is a "custom more honored in the
breach than in the observance" 1t should
be discarded, at least until the war is over.
