WEST UNION, Sep. Sd, 1865.
Editors INtelligcncer
There has been very enthusiastic
campaign meeting held in this town to-
day. Some four weeks ago strong
Grant and ColInN Club was formed
here, and about the same time the
Democrats announced that Henry s.
Walker would address the people OF
Doddridge county on the Sd day of Sep
TENDER, and they repeatedly sent re-
quests to the Grant and Colfax Club to
meet them on that day and openly dis
cuss the issues. 1twas only few days
ago that we ascertained that we should
be able to get speakers for the occasion;
and when we announced to them that
Senator Wiley, Hon. G. d. Hubbard
and Gen. 7. NJ. Harris would meet them
in an open fight, they began to back
down, and it was only when they saw
it would DO powerful weapon in our
hands against them in the campaign
that they consented to it at all.
Although it rained very hard here ali
day, a very considerable crowd had as
sembled ut the Court House by ten
O'Clock, a. NJ, fully one'half the crowd
being Republicans, though it had not
been at all widely circulated that Re
publican speakers would be present.
The speaking commenced ut about
eleven o'clock, A. NJ. By an arrange
ment among the speakers, the Demo-
Gratis were accorded the opening and
closing speeches. Mr.. Parker, of
Wheeling, opened the debate In a
speech some hour and a half in length,
which consisted very largely-almost
entirely-of what was intended as n
very pathetic appeal for mercy for
our Southern brethren and a piteous
howl against "ntgger equality" He was
followed and very fully and forcibly
demolished by the Hon: @. d. Hub
bard in a telling speech of about one
hour. Senator Wiley then took the
floor, andi held the crowd in rapt at
tention for two hours. His argument
was fair. calm, convincing and unan-
swerahles his elcquence, powerful and
Tears glistened in the eyes
of many Democrats us we'll as Repub-
licans. Every sentence was like a
its way home to the heart, He charged
the whole Democratic line, and carried
their works at every point. Mr..
Walker closed the debate in his usual
speech of about two hours and half. |
He introduced himself by some per-
sonal abuse of Mr.. Wiley, and then
flew of into an eloquent appeal to pas
sions and prejudiceS of the Democrats
scarcely referring to the Senator's ar
gument. We feel qnite certain that at
the next meeting the Democrats hold |
here, they will not be quite SO fast in |
challenging US to meet them. The day |
has passed or very quietly, and now, |
while write, Gen. Harris is making |
one of his gallant charges upon the
enemy's lines. Old Doddrige is wide |
awake, and Will give a good account OF |
herself in October and November.

fine pole one hundred and fifty feet
long: the pole vas put up without any
accident. y very fine flag twenty-seven
feet long, presented by tho ladies of

was put on the pole. We were then
entertained for short time with few

Our Phillippi correspondent gives a
pretty full account OF the ruflianism
that underworld to put down Mr.. Ste
vcnsou and Gov. Peirpoint, who spoke
at that place OH the first inst. Our in-
formation from other sources makes the
conduct of the rebel mob there much
more rcprehensible than It appears in
this correspondence. 1t is, that the
hooting and rlotous demonstrations
were so violent that Gov. Peirpoint WAS
compelled to suspend without finishing
his remarks. y crowd OF from n
dozen to twenty rebel rutfians who
either were or pretended to be
drunk, made simultaneous rush
eIbowing their way through the crowd
to the front of tho stand, yelling and
disappearing like demons. w. G.
Brown, the Democratic candidate for
Congress in the End District, looked on
these proceedings coolly aud made no
effort to restrain his rufTainly pNrtisans.
Gov. Peirpoint told htm then and there
that he held him responsible for this
violence which hO might easily have
prevented.
We may say that our information
does not come from Gov, Peirpoiut or
from Mr.. Stevenson, but from another
gentleman who witnessed this outrage.

Our authority for naming these gen.

delegates who had been inmates of the
Athernum was statement of a citi-
zen of Wetzel county. Referring to
that correspondence letter dated last
July, we find, after naming the five DEL
egates from Proctor township, he says:
''Perhaps you are personally acquaint-
ed with some of them as they were in
mates of the Athen@um during the
war" We supposed then this meant all
the. delegates were inmates &C., but
with this correction before us, 1T is APP

1t is evident from the remark OF this
correspondent, about our being "per-
sonaIly" acquainted with some of them
inasmuch as they were Inmates of the
Athenmum," that his letter was mis-
sent. 1t was intended for the editor of

ION is that the pixies we have spo.
ken of would be of incidentally
more advantage to our people than
this or any other railroad. Be-
sides these things, railroad costs
even with State aid about S25, 900
per mile, while pike will cost a.
bout $4,000 per mile. We see at
once that while we might build a
pike, we could not raise the means
to build railroad. Therefore we

Hon. George w. Jones.

The Memphis AOalaache, OF the
Goth, says: In the House yester-
day, Farnesworth, from the Com.
mittee on Conference, on the bill
relieving from political disabilities
certain persons in the South, re-
ported in favor of striking out the
names of Geo. S. Houston, of Ala
bama, and Geo. w. Jones, of Ten
nessee. We know at present, the
extent of Mr.. Houston's offending:
but in the case of Mr.. Jones, it is
clear that the report was made for
a base political purpose. There is
not a nobler or more law-abiding
citizen in Tennessee than the Hon.
Geo. w. Jones, of Lincoln county.
But he is for a white mans govern
ment, and was called upon by the
people of Tennessee, at the late
Convention, to take an active part
in the coming canvass. That is
enough. He is feared by some
Radical scalawag who influenced
the report, and who, doubtless,
fears him in fair, open field fight.
Possibly, ifpardoned, the good peo-
pie of his district might want to
send him to Congress, OF elect him
to some other position and honor.
To forestalh this improbability,
some coward and sneak has inter-
fered at Washington to prevent
him being pardoned. Such men
as Patton of Alabama, Joe. Brown,
of Georgia, and Butler, the
secessionist of Tennessee, who
affiliate with negroes, and keep
late hours at Loyal Leagues, are
fit subjects Of clemency. Their
sins of rank rebellion have been
washed away in the great "Niger, !"
usually spelled with two "g's,")
and they are enrolled on the list
of Radical patriots, who are will
ing to serve their country, at the
Iexpense of outraged decency, for
a few Shiny greenbacks. Mr.
Jones can afford to wait. He is
not suffering in the opinion of hon.
est men, and his efficiency in the
cause of constitutional liberty can
not be impaired by Congress with
holding pardon for which he
had not applied, it seems--a par
don for no crime. We hope the
President, while he has the power
and the opportunity, will issue a
universal amnesty, and thus relieve
from embarrassment persons who
were better Union men in the per-
ilous days of 81 than many of the
most violent Radicals of the pres
ent day, and who have been true
principles, and not men, through
out.
