boy. some time ago os house servant,
spd the boy served him faithfully for Q
very moderate compensation. Our friend
was however uneasy 10 mind on one
point-the boy dressed much better than
his employer, and it was impossible to
understand whence the cash came to pur-
chase the fine clothes he wore. Visions
Of missing table spoons, or something Of
o similar nature, arose painfully in his
disturbed mind, and he determined to
question the mysterious colored dandy as
to how tho thing was done. The ques-
ton was satisfactorily answered thus -

II radcalism be successful, he feared that
The Government of our fathers was lost to us
forever. He believed that radcaltsm would be
defeated There we're thousands OF men In this
commonwealth who had, during the elections
Of the past few years, voted to maintain consti-
tutional liberty. They will still vote for it. He
cared nothing for party. He wanted the Con-
stitution of our fathers sustained. Let us look
at the Boys in Blue.D General Geary says he
is a "Boy in Blue,n and we have some who say
they are "Boys In Blue" on our ticket General
McCandless is a "Boy in Blue" (Great cheer
ing.) We have others who have fought in the
field. He don't ask newspaper men to say what he
has done Their record is before all the people.
General Geary says that the "Boys in Blue"
on our ticket were skulkers aud bummers. He
had nothing to say about Geary's military
n cord; but he never knew true soldier to
abuse his fellow-soldier behind his back.
Look up this street as far as you can see, and
look around you and see If you think 1t worth
while for William +. Johnston to speak any
more TO you. The people speak for themselves.
At meeting in West Philadelphia he had said
that the Representatives in Congress in the
Fourth and Second Districts had declared that
unless the negro had vote the Government
was gone. These men have the impotence to
make this assertion to an intelligent white com
munity. He was surprised to know that such
was the avowed sentiment of any in such high
position. All he had to say was, that If these
men preferred the company of the negro, they
were welcome to it. (Applause)
Other speakers, at this and other stands, ad
dressed the meeting. ....

DEMOCRATIC PARADE ON SATURDAY
Ey ENING.-The Democratic procession, on Satur.
day evening, was large, though not more than
half of the wards we're represented. Those
which did participate had large numbers out,
and looked very creditably. The wards formed
on the different streets intersecting Broad,
above Market. At about nine o'clock the files
entered Broad street. and thence down Broad
street to the Democratic meeting at Broad and
Chesnut streets. The procession was got up
under the direction of General Peter Lyle,
assisted by the following aids:-General William
McCandless, General John F.. Baller, Colonel A.
II. Tippin, and Major Burmeister The process
sion, after paying its respects to the meeting.
passed down Chesnut street. No regular route
had been decided upon, but wherever the parade
passed it was witnessed by thousands. AT diff
ferent places along the route, especially at
Broad and Chestnut streets, fireworks OF various
des criptions we're set Off which added still more
to the excitement of the evening.

THE SOLDIERS HOME SLANDER.-The
Executive Committee of the Soldiers Home
have made public refutation Of the slanderous
statement that inmates of that useful and praise
worthy institution have been discharged in con-
sequence of their political preferences. A con-
densed statement of facts, submitted to the
public by the Committee, disposes of one of the
basest attempts to injure the character of the
Home for political purposes:-
The Soldiers Home is an institution chartered
by the State of Pennsylvania, maintained by
subscriptions from members of the association,
donations from charitable persons, and some
assistance from the State. 1t is governed by
board Of twenty -four managers, elected annually
from among the contributors, assisted by board
of twenty-four lady visitors, who have charge Of
the housekeeping department.
From the evidence submitted by the Com
mittee, il appears that the men who were dis
charged were discharged for direct infringe
ments of the rules of the institution, and not
for any political reasons whatever.

The PENSION AGENCY.-The payment OF
pensions by Colonel Greene, for September, re-
qured an expenditure of about $600,000. UnGer
the new system OF setting apart particular days
for pensioners, alphabetically arranged, the
Pension Agent has been enabled 10 pay more
pensions in given time than ever before in the
history of the agency, while the pensioners are
relieved of the annoyance and the loss of valu-
able time incident TO crowds. On the 30th of
pensioners. During the present term it has
been noticed that large numbers of the pen
sioners residing outside of the city have pre-
rather than avail themselves OF attorneys. The
publication of the days on which parties will he
paid enables them to visit Philadelphia, if they
pl efer. 1t is also worthy of notice that Colonel
Greene, since he has been in office, has de-
creased the fees one-half, and now charges less
than the amount prescribed by the Department.
