SEYMOUR AND BLAIR:
The ygatelGres burn brightly
More Democratic Thunder :

The Democrats Of Bedford and vicin-
ity, under the auspices of the Seymour
and Blair Campaign club. held another
meeting. on last Saturday evening, in
the Court House. Although only an
nounced as a club meeting, it was
larger than the Grant and ColfaX
s'mass meeting'' held on the Saturday
before. The Democracy of the neigh
boring townships was well represen-
ted. Bloody Run borough is entitled
to special mention, as the gallant
Democratic boys from that strong
hold Of Radicaiism brought up a dele
CATION of forty-three, headed by band
of martial music, with banners waving,
as cheer after cheer, for the Democratic
nominees rent the air. The meeting
was organized by the selection of the
following officers :-President, J. D.
LUCAS, ESQ, Of Bloody Run; v.
Pres'ts, John Henderson, NJ. Reed,
Esq, Peter KoOns, James Sheeder,
Hon. y. J. Snively and w. 5. Beegle.
Secretaries, 5. II. Feather and W. 2.
Nickel.
GEN. W. II. MILLER, of Harris
burg, then addressed the meeting in
a speech Of nearly two hours. He
reviewed the policy of theparty in pow
er, and showed, with great force, the
ruinous effect of that policy, if the peo-
pie Will permit them to tyrannize over
them for four years to come. He adj
ministered a scathing rebuke to those
"loil'' creatures who are continually
crying ''copperhead," yet while the
war was going on were always found
nearest home, with their valuabIes ship
ped to a safe distance. His speech
was well received, which was fully at
tested by the frequent rounds of ap-
pIause which interrupted him. The
next speaker was r. MILTON SPEER,
Esq Of Huntingdon, who, owing to the
Iateness of the evening, was compelled
to make his remarks brief. He contras-
ted the two platforms, and showed
clearly the cquiyOcal, double meaning
of the one, and the plain outspoken
truths Of the other. The people have
made up their minds not to be deceived.
They want to know what becomes the
enormous taxes which they are COM
PEELED to pay, and vet the national dobt
increasing. This is not a contest Of
men but of measures. The speaker
concluded with an appeal to all conser-
vative men to rally around the stan
dard Of their country and save it from
the destruction of Radicalism. Our
people were we'll pleased with Mr..
Speer's address, and only regretted
that he was obliged to quit so soon.
The meeting adjourned with three
rousing cheers for Seymour and Blair,
the next President and Vice President
of the United States
