THE CAMPAIGN
TOWNSHIP MEETINGS.
Behold how Brightly Breaks the
Morn"

A DENoCRATIo meeting was held in Ma.
varre in this County, on Tuesday evening
last AIr. c. A. Fairbanks addressed the
staunch Democracy of that section who were
highly pleased with his able speech. Our
friends are determined not to omit to do
do everything they possibly can to elect
SEYMOUR and BLAIR, those two glorious
Champions of Rerenchment, Liberty, Peace
and Prosperity. There will be joyful mu
sic in the heart of each Patriot at Navarro,
and all around about on the Sd of Novem-
Der next.
On Thursday evening there was gath
ering of the Democracy at New Berlin,
which also Mr.. Fairbanks spoke the peo
pie there also are fully aroused. They are
tired of hatred and turmoil, and strife and
high taxes. The Democrats of New Berlin
are WIDE awke to the importance of the
contest
On the following evening, CFriday, there
was large Democratic meeting at Paris. -
The Robertsville Martial Band led process
sion upon the ground, and discoursed some
soul-stirring music, and every one present
was delighted with the able speech of Mr..
Fairbanks. There must have been five hun
dred voters present.
The anxiety and determination plainly
impressed on the coun,cnancc of each one
to rid Ohio, and the nation, of such Radical
misrule for eight long and weary years the
dominant party in power has never raised =
voice for the people, never sought to lessen
in the least the enormous burdens of the
struggling tax payers. It has been, indeed,
4 long, dark night, but light is breaking in
perspective.
And still another Union Democratic meet
ing assembled at Osnaburg on Saturday eve
ming as large as that at Paris, the night pre-
vious-fyc hundred People IN council
Mr.. FARnANEs delivered one of his most
impressive speeches. Those present We're
full of enthusiasm. The wrongs of the
enormous debt was shown up in n telling
manner-wherc is the hope when the debt
is increasing every month Many Repub-
licans were present and listened attent:vely.
The Osnaburgh Martial Band paraded the
street, discoursing good music. A process
sion from the east part of the township came
in with an excellent martial band \. Nc

General Grant telegraphs he will be
III washington September 3. He will
also feel very much like leaving
Washington for good November 3
thereafter.
The lugubrious Cincinnati Gazette
smells danger and says: "The chronic
danger of the Republican party is in
taking success for Granted. The pun
is bad, but then it rests on such bad
basis.
The Radicals present several Gireful
dilemmas: Either Grant "has been
recently seen fuddled in the streets OF
Washington" or Tilton is falsifier;
either "Grant cannot stand up before
a bottle of whiskey without falling
down. or Wendell Phillips is ''a
branded liar and villain."
Forney makes statement "on the
honor of gentleman" but does not
name the gentleman.
Among the former Radicals who
have recently come out for Seymour
and Blair are, James Wharton, late
State Senator of West Virginia, and
Colonel D. 8. Curtis, of Wisconsin,
commander of the famous Sixth
Regiment from that State in the war.
Governor Smiths vigorous veto of
the bill deprIving the people of Ala
bama of participation in the choice
for Presidential electors, will give that
State to.the Democracy by a very de-
cided majority, and Georgia will go
the same way.
Senator Webb, of Wisconsin, has
come out for Seymour and Blair, be-
cause: 1.-THE capitalist who remained
at home is to have Immunity from
the burdens of taxation, be paid for
the use of his money four times the
amount of his investment, and then
have returned TO him the principal
sum loaned, increased sixty-six and
two-thirds per cent. The poor man

down in a bed, but he said he would lie in
the barn a few minutes. He did so and soon

His remains were buried in Harrisburg on

Each moment brings us trouble new,
