fairs of the country, and suggested
written expression of the latter's views
of the best plan of restoring good feel
ing.
General Lee responded. expressing
reverence for the Constitution and de-
sire for the complete union of the States
as of old, and beliefthat his desire was
shared by the mass of the rejecting peo-
pie ofthe South. The South, he said, is
anxious for peace and peaceful admin
istration of the Government, they long
ed for the privileges of Government, and
that the Southern people would treat
the colored people kindly and humane
ly if left to themselves. He emphatical-
ly deplorcd the attempt to commit the
political disticts of the South to the
coored people before they are prepared
for such responsibility, and considers
such an attempt fraught with misfor-
tunes and calamities, and with dstruc-
ton also to the negroes themselves

The Tribune states that, at Greenport,
IL. on Friday last, at midnight, party
of disguised men, five or six in number,
took Lieut.-Col. Andrew Harrison from
his house and covered him with tar and
feathers, and threatened him with death

Democracy IN Dayton.
DAYTON, o., Oct. 9th.

DAYTON, o., Oct. 9th.
Mr.. MCGREGoR II have been spending
a week in this place, and permit me to say
10 your numerous readers that the Democra-
cy Of Dayton and Montgomery county are
doing a vigorous and good work. I have
had the pleasure of listening to our cham
pasion of civil and political rights, Hon. c.
L. Vallandigham, two nights during the
week, and the people turned out in vast
numbers to hear him. His speeches are
powerful and telling, and you can set it
down as a fixed fact that Vallandigham will
represent this District in the next Congress.
Passing out the P. Ft. w. & c. railroad to
Forest, found our friends warm and en-
thusiastic. So it was all the way down the
route of the Cincinnati, Sandusky and Cleve-
land road. All appeared cheerful and con-
| tident of success, and report accessions to
the Democratic ranks. From the tone of
public sentiment down here begin to have
no doubt of the result in Ohio. 1t will sc
Democratic.
In this connection, permit me tc
say a woId through your columns rela-
tiye to the c. s. & c. railroad. 1t is one OF
the finest roads it has ever been my fortune
to ride over. The track is very smooth, the
engines and passenger cars of first quality,
and Conductors gentlemanly and courteous
If you ever pass over this superb road, en-
deavor to take the train of S. H Miller, anC
you'll find the very model of a perfect con
ductor, prompt, courteous and cOmmunica
tive, always anxious for the comfort Of hi
passengers.

ELOQUENT SPEECH OF DOCTOR
CHARLES ALLEN.
Brief Speech from Mr.. Lawson.

On Friday evening last after our mass
meeting of the day. large and enthusiastic
meeting was held on the Public Square.
Three hundred Of our young men COM
posed of the members of the First Voters
Club of Canton, and White Boys in Blue,
all bearing lamp torches upon staffs six feet
long marched through our principal streets
at an early hour of the evening. They were
led by our splendid Democratic Band and
made a magnificent appearance. Mr.. Hen
~ Piero was marshal and marched them in
open order and good style, The fire works
at the Democrat Office added to the display.
After the marching Mr.. Piero arranged
his men around the speakers stand and the
three hundred lamps Illuminated the whole
Square.
\. McGREGoR called the meeting to order
aud after few remarks concerning this
glorious day for the Democracy of Stark,
introduced Doctor CHARLES ALLEN, of
Washington city.
Doctor ALLEN addressed the large crowd
for over an hour in an array of fact, argu-
men, and cioqucnce that. cnchained his
thousands Of hearers. Mr. Aliens style is
exceedingly pleasing and candid, and he
makes good and lasting impression upon
his hearers. Our people were much pleased
with Doctor Aliens fine effort and frequent
l. interrupted him with applause.
Our candidate for Congress, Hon. ID. 7.
LAWSON, addressed the crowd in his usual
happy and effective style. When Mr.. Law
son concluded three rousing cheers were
given for Lawson and our county ticket and
three more tor Seymour & Blair. and the
meeting adjourned.

DENTON.
Approving Of the Arrest and Burning
to Death of Old George Myer.

The Repository of last week de-
nounced the Stark County Democrat
for the account we gave of the arres-
ting and burning to death Of George
Myer i'll AIaSSillOn. As usual this ''de-
cency" organ rushes to the advocacy
and defence Of Outrages. 1t justities
the arrest and burning to death of old
George Meyer, IL harmless old man.
The fact is, we were not informed
of the worst feature of the arrest. 1t
seems the old man was on his way
home, and was nearly out of the town
limits. Hearing noise made by the
marshal and others, come from a dis
tance, playing ball, the old man, 3
little in his cups, hurrahed for Sey-
mOur. This was offensive to the re-
fined ears OF the followers of Grant,
whom Harlan, Wendell Phillips and
others call a drunkard-andt the Mar
sh2l, Aldin, promptly arrested the
OLD man.
II old Myer had not hurrahed for
Seymour he would not have been ar
rested. Does any one suppose If he
had hurrahed for Grant, this marshal
WOIld have troubled him, even had
he been drunk as Bacchus ? The old
man told the Marshal repeatedly ne
=
home but no, the old man was drag
ged along and shamefully beaten
| beside.
Old &yer was therefore not arrested
for drunkenness the lying brutlsI
tory organ claims; but ne was arrested
for hurrahing for Seymour. And this
is in perfect character with the past
history of the ruling "'decency" eie
ment of MassillOn. The mandling
| aud weak old "rOpe and halter" moi
organ cannot excuse this intamOul
outrage.
But the Rep says: We kno,0 that III,
LOlU and degraded are found on the sid,
| Of Democracy"
Who Is "We' That knows" SC
much? And this "We'' of the ole
Rep supports, according to Harlan &
| Co., drunkard for the Presidency
Dick Yates, Zach Chandler, "AOG'
Morton, and other nice men, some
nearer home, Bill Gibson, &c. are no
''loW degraded" of course. They are
nice men, according to the tory.
