Meeting At CoIter's Corner.

i GOLFERS CORNER, AUG. lbth.t
AFR. Editor,--The % itizens Of Colter's
Corner and vicinity were very much dis
appointed upon learning that the Hon. G.
w. Julian could not BE- with as on last
Thursday evening. Ample arrangements
had been made for his reception; but We
are satisfied, as be has promised to be
with US ut some future time before the
election. At the time we received his note
informing US Of bis inability to be with
us, host Of the Hps Republicans Of Bath
Township-aliye to the momentous issues
that are before the people to-day-alive
to the great responsibilities devolylng up
on them as Republicans--were erecting
beautiful ash pole, emblematic OF the up.
ward and onward march OF true RepubIi-
can principles. A handsome flag was then
hoisted by the fair and patriotic Ladies
present, who, with their own hands, had
prepared II for the occasion. This done,
three hearty cheers were given severally
for Gen. Grant, Schuyler Colfax, q. w.
Julian and the Ladies who ran up the
flag.
Aftor listening to some good stirring
airs played by tho Mixervile and Shultz
Corner Martial Bands, the large crowd
repaired to the 4iaec prepared Cor speak
fng, and were cssantly entertained with
short but inssf ~ speeches bv Messrs.
J. MoaIgomer5, D. b. Miller and J. ".
Feighan. A lot Of "Rougbs' endeavored
to disturb our otherwise pleasant meeting,
by shouting for Seymour aud Wade Hamp-
ton, and engaging In loud talk, bolster
Gus laughter, dancing, and calling to the
speakers from time TO time. A part Of
thess scamps were brainless set Of up.
starts Of whom no better conduct could
have been expected, but all parties were
astonished and panied to see aud hear
among this rabble some Of our citizens
whom we had thought better raised and
better educated than TO participate in such
low and disgraceful conduct. But we are
happy TO state that portion of our Dem /.
ocritic friends behaved themselves as
gentlemen, and some OF them condemned
in strong terms this disgraceful affair.
Upon the whole, our meeting was quito
tucuchs. hcpuoicans were strengthened,
and expressed their determination stronger
than ever TO work for the right. A few
Republicans who were considered by the
Democracy lukewarm, who had been fur
nished with the Cincinnati Enquirer, aud
were fast being claimed Ms Democrats,
have come out like men and shown
their true colors, stigmatizing the reports
Of their having turned against their
country as false and unwarranted.
Al the close Of tho meeting an invita-.
ton was given to those present wishing to
joiu the Grant and Colfax Club of Bath
Township, whereupon t,eeniy.sir true and
loyal men came forward and placed their
names upon the fast Increasing list Of
patriots who have sworn to support our
couutry's brave defender, Our. own
Ulysses Grant"
We are confident Ia saying that the re-.
port circulated in your town that our
Township was going Democratic this Fall,
that many Republicans were leaving the
party, win ia November next be contra.
dicted in terms very gratifying TO oil Re-
publicaps. Yours for the right,

JuIIan's Meetings in Franklin Count,

Jullan's Meetings In franklin County
= Hoo. Geo. W. Julian spoke at Bloom
ing Grove, Fairfield, whiscomb and Mt.
Carmel, according TO appointment, TO very
large and attentive audiences Of both
parties. For some tine past he has been
suffering from ehills aud night sweats, and
iaally became 90 pros.ratsd that he was
compelled to 60 home until he recovered
bis strength He expects TO visit all the
other places where he was appointed to
speak, and win give due notice Of such
appoiu tnents hereafter. -. ~,
The people at the above mentioned
places were we'll paid by listening to him,
and went home thoroughly aroused to the
Importance Of the present crisis. Mr..
Julian uses no mild terms 'towsrds the op.
position party in this canvass. Being
thoroughly posted on all the questions
which he discusses, and being fortified
with facts aud figures his speeches defy
the overthrow of the positions he main
tains. He presents the main issue In
this contest, going over the entire ground,
showing that the rebel party is again
making desperate effort TO secure tho
asceudancy,in this Government, assisted
by all their prominent former allies in
the North, with the same rebeIlious prin-
-oiples which they advocated during the
war for the overthrow OF the American
Republic. He convinces his bearers,
both Republican aud Democratic, that We
are yet contending for the perpetuity Of
free institutions, and must continue to do so
until the Fall election, when the defeat Of
seymour and Blair and the triumph Of
Grant and Colfax will put successful
quistus upon any further attempts to sub
vert our. present form of Goyernment.s.o Z.

"The fact is noteworthy that no Gen.

Mr.. Bingham, Dear Sir: The Repub-

grand success. We raised pole some
hundred r. ct high, and placed upon it q
Gag with the names Of Grant and Colfax
inscribed thereon, the Standard bearers
Of the party. The young ladies hoistsd
the flag, after which the baud played "The

issues Of this canvass--so plainly that the

administration Of Andrew Jackson, show
ing tho corruption and high taxes with
which the people have been burdened un-

Mr.. julian was unable TO proceed at
that length ia the discussion Of political
topics, which he desired, as his health
would not permit. After he closed, Mr..

dressed the audience in a few WE'LL timed

PLANTATION BITTERS.

This splendid Tonic is now used by all classes
of people for every symptom of Stomach out
of order"
The secret of it is this: Plantation Bitters are
certain to correct the juices of the Stomach, set all
its machinery at work. and enable it to resist and
throw off the approaching danger. The tendency
of the operations of Nature is always towards a
cure; all she needs is little assistance at the
proper time. How much more reasonable and
sensible it is to help her along with gentle, yet
powerful Tonic, than to deluge and weaken and
defeat her curative processes with poisonous drugs
and fiery mixtures which only stupefy and plant
the seeds of disease and DEATH
