The bounty law recently passed by Congress,

bility, applies, it is stated, only to those dis
charged on account of wounds, and not on &C
count of sickness.
The statement, repeated in several Of the

to persons between IS and As, is a mistake
The extremes are 20 and As. The enrolment
is TO include only those vhoare between 20and

splendid Meeting at Liberty.

One of the largest and most enthusiastic
township meetings, in this county since
the opening Of the campaign, was held at
Liberty, in Jefferson township, last night
(Thursday.) Wewere really surprised to
see so many present, the notice being very
short, aud not general, They came pour
ing into the village lrom every direction
on horseback, in wagons, carriages. and
on foot The ladies were ont in large
Numbers, and added their cheering smiles
to the occasion The meeting was nearly,
if not quite as large rs the SHERMAN
bull frog meeting at the Cont House on
Wednesday night II. ELLIorr, Esq,
addressed the meeting in speech OF an
hour and half, proving from the record,
in the most conclusive manner, that the
Abolition patty isnot only responsible ior
the trouble now upoiithe country. but that
it is the only disunion party in the North.
His speech was received with the most
marked attention. tie was followed by
Mayor GuLlsPIE. in stirring and point.
ed speech, which was received with viii
enthusiasm. 'Fhe Mayor, although new
hand at stnmp.speakihg, is a pleasihs
ing and forcible speaker, aud will soon
rank among the foremost ia the county
He closed his speech amid great enthusi-
asm aud cheers for VALLANDIeHAM and
puGH ELlHu THOMPSON Esq, then took
the stand and delivered a forcible aud en-
terlainmg speech, replete with facts and al.
gument. Mr.. THoMPsoN is a yonng gen
tleman Of fine abilities, and is doing yeo-
man service the cause OF Democracy.
He will make his marx in the world.
The speaking closed about twelve
o'clock, and the crowd dispersed to theiI
homes, making the airresound with shouts
tor "VALLANDIGHAM aud Freedom.
We almost forgot to mention that dur
ing the interval between the speeches, q
number OF ladies and gentlemen, gathered
around the stand and sang some spirited
and cheering campaign songs. The sing
ing was excellent, and added very mucl
to the interest OF the occasion. We woulC
be glad to hear of the young folks in every
township forming glee clubs. and singinl
VALLANDIGHAM campaign songs at the diff
ferent meetings.
