DEbECRATIoN OF THE SABBATH.
We invite the attention of our read
ers to communication, published else
where, giving an account of the dis
graceful conduct OF number of Val
landighRm men, at religious meeting
held at Amanda on last Sabbath. We
we're not present and did not witness
the outrage; but the statements Of cur
correspondent are confirmed by anum-
Der Of gentlemen who were present
from the city.
The Rev. c. A. Van Anda was invit-

sral thousand persons. But his we'll.
known position on the great questions
before the ccrntry, also brought out
the enemies Of thcgovcrnment and the
Christian Church, who attended the
meeting with the arowed purpose of
raising disturbance. They passed
through the meeting, during the SER
mon, swaggering, swearing, and distrib.

three more, lopder than the first. On

A number CT those who attended the
meeting in private convcyauces, passed
through Lancaster in the evening,
cheering for yallandigbarn as they
passed the churches on Columbus street
and indulging in profanity and the moe
indecent noises.
If these things had been done only
by that base oluss Of beings who infes

The Right of Suffrage.

Tue Washington Chronicle CoHS W. For
sEr's paperl alluding tolh forthcoming Con-
gressonal elections In Maryland, sayt:
The Ioyssts Of the city of Baltimore will not permit
doubtful msn to appear at the polls, and We antici.
pate that the coming election will show that In that
State number OF avowed Republicans have been chosen
to Office.
This means, as the Buffalo Courier remarks,
that the "Loyslists," who are of course only the
men who support the Administration in every
thing it does, right or wrong, will forcibly pre-
vent Democrats from exercising the right of
suffrage. No intelligent man, with the eight
est forecast, can doubt that this will be the next
step in the Abolition programme, If the people
will permit il to be taken. What sort of
Congress would that be, elected, not by the
whole people, but by those whom the military
will allow to vote7 What sort of Republic
is that in which there is to be no Free Speech,
no Free Press, no Right of suffsge7 Yet we
are told by "Loyalists" that It is unpatriotic
to remonstrate, even, against the attempt to
crush out constitutional liberty. Has 1t never
occurred to these demsgogues that If the SOL
diers are ordered to break the laws, they may
themselves usurp the power and administer the
Government An employer who teaches bis
CLERKS to steal is often robbed by his too apt
scholars. Once educate the military to tram
pie on law and the rightsof citizens, and what
can prevent it from seizing upon the reins Of
Government and establishing despotism2

Emerson Etheridge, and how His Irony

mantle on the face Of the Northern CoppeIhead,
when Southern men like ETHERIDGE hail LIN
COLIN as the savior Of the noble African.

war to its horrid cause.-The curse OF slavery.
% Az FEMALE-He is only next to SUMNER

about there being no whisky drank in Pepusyl-
vania, since the Whisky Insurrection7" The
cause OF that fatal uprising has not been wholly
extinguished, l fear
1sT An FEMALE--I fear too that the hOrrid
Mormons have not rigdly confined themselves

officers of the meeting, they we're not seen by

errors, but concluded to let them 20 "a there

only 10 the individual himself.-Crisis of thi'

The Reporter of the STAsEsMAN made up the
proceedings of our County Convention from his
own notes, and appended thereto the names Of

,General Fremonrs New Command.

We have had some mysterious reports from
Washington lately of an intended appointment
of General FREMONT to Q new command Of
great Importance, including mighty army Of
contrabands. The New York Herald states
that from the best authority II is enabled to say
that this appointment has been made; that
General FREMoNr's new command is chat of
President Of the /" union Pacific Railroad Com
pany;p that his line of operations will extend
from Kansas to the Pacific Ocean, the largest
department Of any Of our Generals in the field;
that his headquarters will be in New York.
that the General has applied to the President Of
the United States for authority to enrol and
employ In the service of the Company large
force of working contrabands, and that Mr..
LINCOLN has answered that in behalf of the
great enterprise in hand, the Company shall
have as many conIrabsnds as their treasurer
can find money to pay.

From Harrisburg, Pa, paper, We learn that
the soldiers In that city, q few days ago, burned
down the negro quarters there. and drove the
blacks out Of the city. This the New York
Herald marks down as one of the signs Of the
times. II says ,hesoldiers detest the negroes;
that the black men are in danger OF being ex-
terminated, and 20 are the Abolition leaders,
BEEcHER has already fed to Europe after hav-
log directed the sale Of his pictures, and CHEEv-
IN, PHILLIPs, GREELEY and GARRISON ought to
follow him as fat as they can. GERRiT SIXTH,
foreseeiDg the coming storm, has backed down
from the high radical Abolition ground. That
may save his bacon. But lot the other Aboli-
tion leaders look out.

The Railroads and the Democratic State
Convention.

We are authorized to state that all the Ohic
railroads have agreed to carry pnssengers to
and from the Democratic State Convention fol
bal'-fare. Return certificates from the Secre
tary Of the Convention will not be recognized
as they were formerly; but persons who desire
to avail themselves of the benefits Of the half
fare arrangement, will purchase tickets for the
round trip, at the points where they, respect
lively, take the cars.
The Secretary Of the Democratic State Cen.
trail Committee and the Secretary Of the Demo
cratic State Executive Committee have lsbored
faithfully to bring about this arrangement with
the railroads of Ohio; and they have been
greatly aided In the work by the Democratic
press of the State, and by local committees
along all the lines of the railroads.

"THE multitude" said FoREEY few days
since In the Philadelphia Prsss, "Iarsly COM
prehends an idea, but it follows q threat or q
command" This sentiment furnishes key to
all the recent arbitrary acts which FoRNEY and
Abolition demagogues like him have urged oD
and sustained. Such men have no faith in the
loyalty Of the people or in their reverence for
constitutions and law, but suppose, as all tyrants
have done In times past, that force alone 10 eff
cacious with the mass Of men. They general
iy discover their mistake when il is too late to
fetrace their steps.
