SENSIBLE ADvIoE.-As President JOHNSON
has appealed to the people, and not to politi-
clans, democratic or republican, the Journal
Of Commerce well says that it would be much
better for certain journals, and republicans
generally, who stand by Mr.. JOHNSON, to
suspend at once all their antipathy to copper.
heads, as they are Extensively called, to stop
all abuse of democrats as disloyal, and reject
that the President will fall unsupported ifthey
succeed in preventing the democrats from
sustaining him. In Congress, without the
aid of democrats the conservatives could moi
prevent the radicals from passing all their
measures over succession of vetoes. In the
country at large they are probably in a
minority Of their own party, for we have
tolerably good evidence that the radicals
carry nearly all the republican conventions
1t is sheer nonsense for the political wire
pullers to claim special property in Mr.. JOHN
son at such time as this, or to think that he
will regard them as the only "people" to
whom he has appealed for support

THE SENTINEL.
ROCKVILLE, MD.
The Mass Meeting.

A yery large and enthusiastic meeting oil the
people of this county, called for the purpose
of endorsing the course of President JOHNSON,
was held al the Fair Ground, near this place,
on Saturday, the 3rd iastant'
The notice pursuant to which the meeting
vasbeld was only partially circulated through
the county, owing to the lack of time, but the
wav the solid and substantial citizens came
tbronpipg into town was convincing proof
that all felt and thought alike upon the issue
involved 1t was much the largest meeting
held here for many years.
The meeting was called to order by W. v
BouIc, ESQ.,, and the following officers
selected from all former political parties.
nominated and unanimously elected, viz:
Chairman. FRANCS G. CHOPPER, Esq.
Vice Presidents. VIM. Thompson Of r.,
Elisha J. Hall, Zachariah Waters, John I
Benson, Col. Robert T. Dade, VIM. s. Jones,
Samuel G. veirs, John Brown, DR.. Washing
ton Duvall, and Francis Miller.
Secretaries w. Garter, r. G. Thrift,
Thomas G. Waters, James Kemp, W. b.
Chichester.
The Hon. MONTGOMERY BLAIR had been IN
by sickness from attending the meeting.
The meeting was addressed by the Hon. d.
W. VOORHEES,, of Indiana, who fully sustained
the unriyalled reputation he has long since
won as an orator. His noble sentiments, so
grandly uttered, thrilled the hearts of his
audience. Frequent enthusiastic bursts OF
applause. as the intervening breathess hush
of eager attention, indicated how fully and
heartily the views ofthe speaker were endorsed.
His eloquent appeal to the honest and patriotic
masses of the people to support President
JOHNSON, the iron man of Tennessee, the second
ANDREW JACKSON, as he called him, in his
contest with the Radical fanatics of Congress,
was irresistible and ifthey people elsewhere,
as we hope they do, endorse President JOHN
SONS policy as unanimously as the people of
old Montgomery, the contest will be briefand
earthquakes will speedily dispose Of his
enemies, who are enemies of the country.
Mr.. VOORHEES, impressed the citizens as being
not only finished orator, but, what is far
better and higher, truly patriotic citizen,
ar honest man, contending now, as in the
past, with all the genius with which Provi-
dence has SO largely endowed him, for whaI
is right, simply because it is right.
The Hon. D. W. VOORHEES, was followed
by DR.. G. W. ALLEN, of Washington, who, in
chaste and eloquent grafton, enforced the
same general ideas, and was greeted by re-
peated rounds of applause from the delighted
audience. The DooToR is an exceedingly
fluent and impressive speaker, and as our neal
neighbor we hope to hear him often In the
good times which we trust are coming.
The following resolutions were adopted /;
after which three cheers, which made the
welkin ring, were given for President JOHN
SON, and three more for the speakers and, on
motion of Mr.. E. HALL, the thanks of the
meeting were returned to the speakers for their
able and eloquent addresses, &c.

Arrosted for swIndlIng.


James Simmons and james Condor, ar.
rested for swindling man whose name we
could not obtain, out Of $500, were before
the Mayor yesterday morning. The COM
plainant states that he was passing through
here on the cars, and was detained for few
hours at the depot. While waiting for a
train, he was met by the defendant Sim
mons, who represented himself as a sheep
drover, about going to Missouri with lot
of sheep. BY Simmons, the complainant
saws he was inveigled into Gillesple's rail-
road saloon and induced to drink couple
Of glasses of ale, which, he thinks, from
their subsequent effect upon him, were
drugged. 4
, In the saloon, the complainant alleges he
was introduced to the defendant Condor,
who persuaded him to bet $500 on certain
game with dice, he (Condon) pretending to
put up like amount on the result Of the
game. The complainant lost his $500, and
Immediately afterward, on going out Of the
saloon, strange feeling came over him,
which, he supposes, was caused by what he
had just drank.
The Mayor required the defendants to
give bail in the sum Of $500 each for their
appearance before him for preliminary
examination on Wednesday, the 14th inst.
Simmons gave the required bail, but Con-
don failing to do SO, was sent to the County
Ill

HOrrid Murder.

The Cincinnati papers give an account of
the murder of the wife OF small farmer
named Gosswein, nearly fifty years of age,
residing on the Harrison Turnpike, Che
viot. The farmer returned home from the
city about ten o'clock on Monday night,
and found to his horror his wife lying on
the floor of their house with her feet tied
to the bed-post, and quite dead. Giving
an alarm to his neighbOrs, Mr.. GOsswein
proceeded to examine the premises, and
found that everything in the house had
been thoroughly searched for money, which,
no doubt, the murderer was in quest of,
and that his wife had been strangled to
death, either by mans hand or strong
band being placed around her neck and
tightened until life was extinct. A cOro-
ner's inquest was held, but developed no
additional facts.

Opera House.

Woods Minstrels opened last niaht before full
house. and that implies that the audience was very
large-larger than could have boon accommodated at
any other place in the city The entertainment was
an excellent and elected general praise and ad-
miration. The music, vocal and instrumental, was
generally admired. The repartees. conundrums.
etc., were lively, spicy and cOmica. The clog dane
ing drew forth hearty encores. The imitation of
birds and animals was done up in unique and orig
nal style, and afforded much qualification to the au-
dience
We might go on and speak in terms Of praise Of
each single performance. But it is unnecessary.
Woods Minstrels are we'll trained and talented
baud. Their performances are chaste, and devoid
Of that cap-trAp and extravaganza that so often
render Ethiopian minstrelsy disgusting to a culti-
waited mind They are artists who have arespect for
themselves and for correct public taste. One thing
is specially commendable, that in their entertain
monts one performance succeeds another in rapid
succession without any tireIome waiting on the part
Of the audience.
These Minstros give their second and last enter
tainment At the Opera House tonight, with an en-
tire change in tho programme.

EIInIer,a Athnnenm.

There was another large house at the Atheneum
last night, at the second performance Of Our Ameri-
can Cousin. Miss Julia Daly was greeted with the
same applause as the preceding evening when the
play was first performed and at its close, was calel
before the curtain as on that evening. Shewas per-
haps at home in the play last evening, as were
those who assisted her generally. The finale was
wound up beautifully amid fapturops applause.
Mr.. Sam Ryan created a fine flow of meTriment
in his impersonation Of DR.. O'T6ole,iS the Irish
Tutor. The farce was well played.

Under this head the Cleveland Plain Deal
er tells of an old gentleman of sixty years,
and his son of thirty, who came to the For
rest City the other day, from Holmes coun-
ty, neither of whom had ever before been
six miles away from his native village,
Walnut Greek! Neither had ever seen a
place larger than that diminutive town;
had never seen a railroad; had never seen a
locomotive, nor a railway car nor steam
boat, nor any kind of sailing craft, nor any
thing under the sun except the few simple
accessories of Lille that were to be found
within the narrow bounds of their little
world at home. They were dressed in the
plainest of homespun, and in the quaintest
of home-conceive costumes; roundabouts,
enormous bell-crowned, wide brimmed
hats, ponderous stogas, and pants that fitted
the leg, like kid glove. In this last par
ticular, however, they chanced to be UP to
the latest freak of fashion.

Boot. and Shoes Che ap.

We call attention to the card in another
column of Messrs. B. P. Dunford & Co..
whose mammoth boot and shoe store is To-
Gated at 276 South High street. There one
of the finest and largest assortments Of
boots and shoes in this city will be found,
and of the best quality and at the cheapest
rates in the market. The public will do
well to look in at this establishment before
making purchases elsewhere. The pro-
prietors will be found accommodating and
obliging.

A man named Griffith, belonging to Hills
boro, was found early Monday morning by
the Cincinnati police, sleeping on the side
walk on Sixth street, between Main and
Sycamore. On being reused up, and get
ting fully awake, he discovered that some
time during the previous night he had been
relieved of $6OOin Treasury notes. Hehad
no recollection as tD where he had been, or
in whose company, and could give no clue
to aid in the recovery of the money.
