IA CATHOLIC PBIEsr ARgzsTEn.-
On Thursday week Father Murray,
the Catholic priest il charge Of the
church at this place, called q pic
mic at Mrs. Growers pasture, near
town, for the purpose Of raising
money to complete the Catholic
church here. Everybody was M
vited; considerable number Of
citizens were in attendance, and
things were progressing finely
when some very loyal chaps dis
covered the names Of Seymour and
Blair on the large flag which had
been loaned for the occasion by
this Office. These names were more
than they could behold and be
easy, 50 they proposed that the
names be cut off the flag, or the
flag taken down. At this iuncture
Father Murray informed the crowd
that he had nothing to do with
politics, that this was not a polite
al meeting, that the flag had been
loaned on the occasion with those
names on it, and if his friends had
borrowed it with those names, it
was their bounden duty to return
it In the same condition, and that
not q single letter should come off
or the flag come down.
The priest stated that he, like
other men, had political views 81
his own, and while he did not OBJ
trude them, he was not ashamed to
say that he was a Democrat, and
/ q that at j he To looked upon q the men gA9se
names were upon that flag, like
the Catholic Church, as the friends
Of civil and religious liberty every
where. He pointed to the persg-
cutions Of his church IN this State
at Radical hands, to the imprison-
ment Of priests and sisters Of char
IitY, TO the taxing of Catholic
churches and Catholic graveyards,
and asked If it were possible that
Irishmen and Catholics could be-
come fietcherized."
The rabble falling to accomplish
their desire, several knock-downE
ensued, and In the disturbance
Father Murray pushed q man out
of his way for rude language used
| to him, and next morning was ar.
rested on d Wsyrant charging him
with assault and battery. He was
brought before q Justice, and pros.
ecntad as though he had been the
worst desperate in the Stat Stats, 81
two Radical lawyers, who found i
an admirable opportunity TO vent
q portion Of th6s pent up fury that
the Radical party has ever har.
Ebored for the Catholic church. The
priest was denounced III the mosl
nnfeeling manner, and his churct
viliRed and abused. He was fined
| 1--WE dollars and costs, but refused
to pay it, and has taken an appea
| To the Circuit Court.

has demonstrated the fact that H0STETiLh
STOMACH BITTERs is the best medicine used
to accomplish this desirable object By its use
the appetite is increased, digestion promoted all
feelings Of depression removed, and the vital

MONEY WANTED. We believe we have
as prompt paying subscribers and patrons as
any newspaper in the country can boast of,
and we are therefore not inclined to com
plain. Bat not being able to go out among
our people to collect, when weare in need of
money we are obliged to call on them through
the columns Of onr paper. The books of the
late firm of Durborrow & Luts are in our
hands for settlement and on them we find a
large number Of unsettled accounts for ad-
vertising and subscriptions, amounting to sew
eral thousand dollars. There are outstanding
debts of the late firm which must be met and
paid, aud to enableus to do this we must rely
upon our patrons for prompt payments. They
have never yet failed US when called upon and
We are confident that they viii not now. But
as a further inducement, we VIII accept, from
all who are in arrears for subscriptions and
who pay for the past year and the yea in ad !
vance, before or during September Court, s.
per year, the same as if they had paid for all
IN adyance. We have greatly enlarged and
improved our paper, at heavy expense,
without any increase in its price, and the lib
eral terms now offered cannot be extended be
yond September Court All parties notpay-
ing up at that time win be strictly held to the
advertising rates viz. s. in advance, S2.25

Last Saturday evening was the regular time
for the assembling of the Grant and Colfax
Campaign Club which has been such noble
success from its inception. JAcoB BARNHARr
ESQ. was in the chair, assisted by Alexander
King, jr and John Alsip, Esqs. as Secretaries.
The Court House was literally crammed with
the exultant multitude who had aocked
thither to listen a second time to that peerless
orator, Allegheny eounty's beloved son, the
Hon. Thomas N. Marshall, and to welcome
our distinguished guest, the Hon S. A. Puryi.
ance.
The speech Of Mr.. Purgiance was lucid,
comprehensive and logical resume Of the his
tory of the two great contendng parties that
now claim the suHrages Of the. people. He
discussed very forcibly the issues now agita-
ting the public miad showed that suffrage
was left to the States, that the bond question
was premature and altogether Democratic
bug bear and that the only question really
before the people was, shall the Union, saved
by loyal blood, be controlled by loyal men, or
shall it be surrendered into the hands of the
leaders Of the Democratic party, Wade
Hampton, Gen. Forrest, ct ia omne genus
Mr Puryiance's speech was greeted with
rounds of applause, and at its conclusion,
loud calls we're made for Mr. Marshall who
came forward amid cheers. The speaker
answered categorically a number of questions
propounded by the Bedford Gazette, which
delectable sheet received "a terrible Aagellation
at his hands No doubt if the editor were
there, he wished for an end to this fearful
diatriJe which had enclosed within It all the
pent-qp indignation Of one who though pos
sessing genial life, had been stigmatized in
cosrsest language in public journal Mr.
Marshall spoke for an hour ana half, aud
held his audience to the last. This was Ger
tainly one of the grandest efforts of his life.
Mr. Marshall is born orator, endowed with
a highly imaginative faculty, impassioned aud
elevated, possessing beautiful. wierd fancy,
at times inclined to deal in invectiye, ever
interspersing his remarks with wit and anec-
dote. He challenged any Democrat to meet
him 10 debate, stating that he would divide
his time with any one who desired to contro-
vert his statements. The meeting adjourned
with three times three spontaneous cheers for
Marshall, Purviance-and the whole Repub-
hcan ticket
