y run. v The commanders Of the Radical
party whom VIC have to oppose in this coun.
ty arc considered Of inferior material and
the cause which they represent ue,y weak
one. In all their discussions they do not
meet the real issue in this campaign. They
fail to explain to the people tho cause Of
their extravagance; why it is that the pub
lie debt is still increasing, aud no signs Of
its diminishing. The great frauds which
have 3ccn committed by their party, receives
the silent go.by. Ns
In our last We gave brief account of the
meetings held up to the hour of going to
press Since then the following meetings
have been held aud addressed by the gen
tlcmen named:
In Pine township. on Wednesday evening
last, Z. w. Miller, Esq, was announced to
address the Democracy Of that locality.
Little Pine is bound to be heard. There is
no trouble among the sturdy yeomanry Of
that township. Seymour aud Blair will re-
ccive their entire strength. Some tell Us
"sbe'l dV better"
sC6AnLoAr.
At Alinas Cole S, in Suearoaf meeting
was held on Wednesday evening last. which
was addressed by Capt &. b. Brockway.
The attendance was large, and the meeting
n complete success. The Captain gave the
Radicals some food to digest they had not
been in the habit of receiving. Their speak
crs say nothing about what is going on in the
back kitchen" aud it is only when they
hear Democratic orator that they gain in
formation Of which they know comparatively
little. Capt B. speaks encouragingly Of
SugarloaG VIII 'bct his pile" on her doing
all that may reasonably be expected.
&c. BERWICK.
On Wednesday evening the 23l int, a
Democratic meeting was held in Berwick.
NJ. J.. jackson, ESD. presided. The al
dresses were made by Robt. L. Clark. E-q
and Col. John q. Freeze, elected much APP
plausc, and no doubt had good effect The
Democrats Of that Borough nre alive to the
importance of the campaign. The Ga.eiie,
their organ, is dealing out to the Radicals
some slcdge. hammer blows. Go in Jerry"
MAINE
An appointment was made for Mainvillc
on Thursday evening last, which was to he
met 10y {. w. Miller W. have not learned
whether the meeting was held Or not, but
presume it was, Notwithstanding the bad
weather. Mr.. Miller is doing good service
in the old Democratic cause. Spunky Lit
tic Maine will not be behind in rolling up
her usual majority and We would not be at all
surprised to find, after the election, the
Democratic vote aud majority Of that Dis
trict greatly increased. .r
BEAVER.
On Friday afternoon last, Mass Meeting
was held at The Public House of B. 4. Zarr,
in Beaver Valley. Notwithstanding the
untavorable appearance of the weather in
the early part OF the day, this was the
largest meeting ever held in that place. The
people Of Beaver and adjoining townships
commenced coming in early, and continued
until = clock, r. NJ, the hour Of meeting.
The ladies turned out almost to woman,
in that vicinity The Brass Band, of this
place, with its four matched grcys and hand
some wagon, attracted no little attention as
it passed through the country to the meet
ing. The speakers were Robert L. Clark,
ESD, and COL John G.. Freeze. They both
made capital speeches, and were frequently
interrupted with bursts of applause. Clark

MADISON.
The meeting at lIellcr's School House,
in this township, on Friday evening last,
owing to the rain was not very well attended.
Y. G. Barkley, Esq, and W. ii. Shoema.
They are both good takers. and no doubt
gave eutirc satisfaction. Madison is "all
right" every time The advocates Of fraud
and corruption stand little or no chance
among the Democracy of Madison. The
disunionists and misccgenationis, are being
rapidly worked OUT Of that township
