REMARKS OF MR.. ENsoR.
Mr.. Ensor was then called upon, and in. re-
spouse, arose and said that he was ready to
speak openly tonight, as be did to a public
meeting a week after the memorable 10Th OF
April for the Union, and nothing but the Union
Applause. He said he was in favor of none
but loyal men being placed in power 1t had
been said that the President was going to sell out
the party; he did not believe ii; he believed
that he would be true to the party that elected
him; the committee, of which he had the honor
to be chairman, did not believe this and therefore
had reported resolutions endorsing the President
in his reconstruction policy so far as he had
gone but if the President did intend to sell GU,
and desert his party and take to his arms and
counses disoyal men, he was opposed to him
Now, great deal had been said about the Freed
mems Bureau bill, and TO many persons ii was a
great bugaboo. If he had had vote he thought
that he would vote against the BILL because there
was one in existence. Mr.. Ensor commented
upon the provisions of the bill, and said some
of its features were founded upon humanity,
liberality and charity, and the nation should be
humane ana cnarltaule. In I'M SreSpect II made
no distinction between the black man and the
white man, for it provided for refugees, and
they might be white men as we'll as black. -
Mr. Ensor said that he had taken care to EXAM
inc the provisions of the Freedmen S Bureau bill,
and though there might be some objections 10 ii
in his mind now, yet it was not near so bad as
he thought it was; as there was one Freedmen s
Bureau bill, there was no necessity for another,
but there was a necessity for Freedmens Bu-
reau bill, and carrying out this bill would not
be near 80 expensive as was supposed. Any
provision in the bill favoring thf negro over the
white man he was opposed to. lie was for pro-
tecting the negro in his freedom person and pro-
perty, but opposed to his right of suffrage, or
any legislation for his special benefit AThe great
question now before us is whether disloyal
men should be admitted to Congress- Are you
prepared TO submit to this? The Representatives
Of the Southern States might combine with the
Copperheads of the North, and there would be in
the Senate majority of these men. The men
sent as representatives from the South are disoya
and had committed treason, and what had they
suffered as punishment for their treason7 They
had gone to Richmond to the Southern Congress

REMARKS OF MR.. sLorHowEn.

Mr.. Geo. Slothower, member of the late House,
was called upon TO speak, and in response, said
that speaking was not his VOCATION but he liked
to please the people, and here he would say that
he endorsed Andrew Johnson in all he had done
SO far, but he thought all these meetings prema-
ture that if little more time had been allowed,
Congress and the President would come into
harmonious measures that all the signs of the
times showed this; that one party had gone
little too far and now would be glad to get back
lie was in favor of none but loyal men being
placed in power, and he counselled unity and
harmony in the Union party, and he hoped that
we would have peace, harmony and prosperity.

Improvement i'm County Jails
and Aims Houses.

There has been State Missionary
appointed to visit the Jails, Aims Hous-
es and Public Institutions throughout
the State to cooperate with the Com
missioners, Keepers and Physicians of
these establishments in ameliorating the
condition of the inmates. This they
propose to do by establishinga Commit
tee of ladies and gentlemen in each
county town who will furnish them pure
reading, endeavor to have regular reh-
gious services conducted for them, and
visit them occasionally to speak kind
word and direct them to a higher aim
in life. Also to furnish them with BIZ
bles, Testaments &c.
Rev. J. III. Beckwith, the State Mis-
sionary, visited our town last week and
succeeded in getting some of our wor-
thy citizens to cooperate in this good
work. The following will kindly assist
those who have the oversight of these
cstablishments-Rev. J. T. Ward, Rev.
John A. Munroe, DR.. Warfeld, Dir.
Charles Billingslea, Mcssrs. Norris,
Grammer, Baughman, Sheriff Hoppe,
MIR. Jacob Myers, Mrs. DIR. Warfeld
and others. on a-s - I.reiI
The State Missionary expressed his
hearty approval of our Jail, which is
quite an improvement to the old one.
There being separate apartments for
male and female, and cells for each
prisoner, SO the young offender who has
just begun in crime shall not be contain
mated by associatiug with the hardened
criminal, but may receive such instruc-
ton and counsel that his first shall also
be his last offence. This arrangement
is credit to our Commissioners and
County Officers, and will tend to make
our county respected for the humanity
and consideration shown to the unfor-
tunate. We trust others will aid in
this good work by joining this Commit
tee, and Westminster may stand first in
ameliorating the sufferings of the poor
and the erring. aa '-.-, 4.ee aoL

on this occasion The Radical Clubs,
Leagues, Colored Zouaves, all sorts and
col0rs, paradad the streets, under a call
to Washington to greet Congress, which
is swelling in Importance as che coun-
try's dignity decreases. Justice Carter
delivered the address of welcome, and
was responded to by Speaker Colfax,
Senator Yates and Judge Kelly. The
speeches were inAammatory. At night
there was a great banquet, at which Mr.
Walbridge presided, and Thaddeus Ste

and will, if preserved, convey to sue

Schenck's Seaweed Tonic.


This medicine, invented by DR.. J. H. ScHKxcx,
Of Philadelphia, is intended to dissolve the food
and make it into chyme, the first process of
digestion. By Gle .nsing the stomach with
Schenck's Mandrake Pills, the Tonic soon res
torres the appetite, and food that could not be
eaten before using it will be easily digested.
Consumption cannot be cured by Schenck's
Pulmonic Syrup unless the stomach and liver
is made healthy and the appetite restored,
hence the Tonic and Pills are required in near
ly every case of consumption. A half dozen
bottles Of the SEAWEED TONIC and three or
four bozescf the MANDRAKE PILLS will care
any ordinary case of dyspepsia.
DR.. Schenck makes professional visits in New
York, Boston, and at his principal Office In
Philadelphia every week. See daily papers Of
each place, or his pamphlet ON consumption for
his days for visitation. F-t.,o;.a....,
