Public Meetings.

We print to-day o list of announce
ments, made with the authority of tho
state Executive Committee, for Demo-
cratic meetings throughout the State.
Although the list is large one, it is
believed that the appointments pub
l,shed to-day will by no means satisfy the
demand for Democratic speeches among
the people.
There has seldom been a more univer-
sal desire for thorough discussion OF
political issues than exists at present.
All over the State the people are alive
TO the trouble which Radicalism has
brought upon them. They want the
causes of their distress Investigated.
They want the authors of the mischief
which is abroad in the land brought to
the bar of public Judgment.
The Executive Committee are anxious
to supply the great demand for speak
ers and meetings to which we refer.
They are ready to respond to the utmost
oftheir ability. The invite the people
of the different counties to get up their
own meetings, when desired, outside of
those announced. Call upon the Com.
mittse for speakers and the call will be
answered.
Is is further suggested that bask ct
meetings and barbacues, while chang
Ing somewhat the style of West
Virginia political gatherings, will add
social character to their proceedings,
ard develop greater amount of inter.
ct than any other kind Of meeting
0abherings of this sort will be particu
hfly popular during the month Of Au
G1se. 1t is a sort of leisure month fol
~ farmers. Harvest is ovel. Seeding
~ not commenced. Let them get NJ
ir pic MICS, basket dinners and bar
- nes, invite their Radical Dsighbors,
- in the kindly spirit of men who
t4fe common interest in tho Govern
- ent, discuss the grave issues which
He now before the American people.

announced above, successful in the fal-
lest meaning of the term. Summon
your friends, neighbors and the people
generally to hear the great issues Of

THEY are making great Radical pro.
gress in Hayti. White men have to
quit that Island, now that the niggers
are getting the upper hand. That's the
style in which Radicalism is trying 10
reconstruct the South.

"Arms! give us arms" is the next cry

Destruction

In 1860 what is known as the Red
river country produced 100000 bales of
cotton, 100000 hogsheads of sugar, and
3l7 900 barrels of molasses. This year
these crops will be but small per cent.
of the figures given, the levces OH the
Arkansas ard Mississippi rivers being
the capitalists taxed into beggary, and
the laborers engaged making laws.
This is not cheerful exhibit, but as
its statistics are found in q memorial
from reconstruction convention to
Congress, it cannot be said to be in
spired by any desire to unduly paint the
ruin wrought by Congressional madness
and folly. This Rod river country
portions of Louisiana, Mississippi and
Arkansas-is by nature garden of the
Hesperides. The cotton it produces is
only loss fine than Sea Island, and the
quality OF its sugar cauo 30 unsurna ssed.
To its many advantages there is but one
drawback-a break, or crevasse, in the
levee-and just this very disadvantage,
which neutralizes every good so bounti-
fully vouchsafed to tkis region, has
come in the train of this unnecessary
and illegal Congressional intermed-
ding. The labor of this country is ne
gro labor only, and the blacks being
drawn off into politics and rendered
averse to labor-which was, indeed m
necessary, seeing the Bureau fed them
the rushing current, which needs con-
stantly to be watched, wore down the
levees and let in the food. Where
there were once smiling plantations are
now malarious marshes, the relics of
turhid lagoons formed by the winter
overiows. Where cane and cotton
were once plenty, they are now scarce.
Where culture was the rule, it is now
the exception. One million dollars to
each of three States, secured by mort
gage on the river lands, would have
saved the levees, and in saving them
enabled the negroes to live without the
Bureau, and put the whites in position
to pay something handsome to the rev.
enue. But no. Three millions loaned
In this way would not have affected po-
litical purposes, and so the money was
withheld from the leveo loan to be given
outright to the Bureau. The lcvces re-
main broken, the plantations are
still marsh, the whites yet bankrupt,
aud the blacks still sucking the bureau;
but then, cane and cotton to the con-
trary, there are bogus governments,
safe for Grant, in Louisiana and Arkan-
sas, and the Governor of Mississippi
has Just been bundled neck and crop
out of his own doOr.-Neic York Uortd.

Things, Not Words.
Saws Forney. intbe Philadelphia

Says Forney, IN the ePhlladelphla fTeSs
of Saturday: sThe rekindling of rebel
animosity occasioned by the New York
Convention )" "source of positive alarm
to the country;" warmed into new life
the viper of rebellion )" "the diabolism
that cut off Lincoln and Dostie;" and
so on. Dreadful, isn'ti and elsewhere
in the same sheet, Comprehend" dis
loyal" and the like terrible wOrds, cal.
culated TO scare some old woman ont OF
her few remaining wits. But these
words do not happen to be issues in this
campaign. As effective weapons they
were used mp, played ont, long ago. 1t
is discovered that it is not nearly so
disreputable to be considered "disleil," !"
or to be called copperhead," ;" as it is to
be proved to be q defaulter to the Gov
ernment to the amount of $4,000.
Taxpayers, just now, are looking less to
the epithets of Forney and more to the
expenses Of Forney's party. The cry of
"copperhead" is no cover for the start
ling fact that in three years of peace
tho Radical party has wrung fifteen
hundred millions of money in taxes
from the pockets of the people, and has
borrowed eight hundred millions more.
That party may be "loil" till it is sick
from excess Of "loyalty;;" but that is no
return for the msney. What have you
done with our money! That is the
peoples question. Why are the expen-
ses of the Army and Navy for the year
1867, S205, ,522 ,5s5, or more money than
was required to carry on the Mexican
war Why does it cost, ia exact figures,
S44,4l3,l5l more to support tho army
and navy in the year of peace 1867 than
it did in the year of peace 1867 Such |
questions cannot be answered by call
ing Democrats or their candidates "cop |
perheads" or TRAITORS" they are ques-
tions Of figures, not filth. Throwing
the dust Of dead Dosties into the eyes of
the people fails to blind them to the
fact that eleven millions more were ad-
ded to the public debt in the month of
June. "What has Radicalism done with
the peoples money!" Ring this qnes-
tion in Radical ears from now till No
vember. 1t means something. "Cop-
perheadism," whatever it may be,
or if it were all that the
frightened ForReys pretend it is, is
nothing to the corruption of the Radi-
cal party. The campaign is question
of dollars, not "vipers;" of hard money,
not hard words. The attack on Fort
Sumter has passed into the history of
the year 1861; the people want to know
about the Radical attacks on the public
treasury and the peoples pockets to-
day. "What has Radicalism done with |
the peoples money!" That is the quGs-
ton; that is the issue; and next Novem-
Der the people will decide whether they
cah afford four years more of Radical
corruption and extravagance.-Jorld.

o. berkshire the Best.

We have become satisfied that the Berk-
shire is the best stock Of hogs for farmers
to handle, especially since cholera has be-
come so common in this country. He will
mature quicker and upon less food than any
other hog, and these are the most impor-
tant considerations with the practical. cal
oulatiug farmer. Taking this view of the
subject. We have determined to discard all
Others and give them thorough test, be-
lieving that in the end they will have yield
ed as more meat ats smaller cost than any
other stock. We are therefore the more
under obligations to our friend, Capt, JAS.
Z. ABERNATHv, for his kindness in supply
ing US with one Of The finest specimens Of a
