A Demonstration.

Aessrs. Aultman, Harter and Fast. OF
our city were appointed a committee to
receive Hon. ]. w. Garrett, President OF
the B. d o. Railway, at Alliance, on his
way from Pittsburgh to Chicago, on Sat
urday last on 200 p m, train. On his
arrival here, about 1000 of our citizens,
principally the industrious and hardwork-
ing element of our manufacturing estab-
ljshments, in their shirt sleeves, headed
/ by our Brass Band, met at the depot, and
when the iron horse hove in sight, the
band discoursed an air or two, as it ap-
preached the depot
Mr.. Garrett stepped out on the east
platform of the Presidents car, and loud
cheers greeted his appearance After this,
Mr.. Garet spoke to the crowd, expressing
his great delight at visiting our country
along the P. Ft. W. & c. r. R., and his
qualification at the interest taken on the
part of our citizens on the subject of a
western extension to the P. & c. r. R.
Mr.. Schaefer stated to him that the cit
izens Of Canton regretted much that he
could not tarry with them for only few
hours, so as to afford them an opportunity
of showing him our extensive manufac-
turing establishments and beautiful farm
ing country, such as now lies before him
for over 10 miles on each side of the
railroad underlaid with coal and the best
of iron ore.
Mr.. Garret replied, that his engage
ments were such that he could not posi-
bly, remain with US, but he hoped within
two. years to visit Canton on our own
through route.

MR. LOWRY LEAVES THE NEGRO
PARTY.
Remuneration.

Haying been charter member of the
Republican party, l consider it due to the
public to present a few prominent reasons
for leaving it. have carefully and dis
passionately read all sides of the political
issues now before the country, and am
driven to the following conclusions as to
the purposes of the party now in power
J. To destroy the sovereignty of the
States, and to eeptrali2e the power of the
Government. This, of course, means
Monarchy.
2 To force upon US political and social
equality with the negro race. Take the
present situation for an example. If II
does not mean this, then I do not under
stand actions which speak louder than
words.
g. Sustaining a swarm of useless Gov
ernment loafers called officers, who live oi
course on the sweat and toll of the labor
ing producer. For example, see the Tenth
Ohio District
4. Protection of monopolies under thf
name of Tariff, at the expense and with.
out the consent of the public Of course
all know that the consumer of goods pay:
all tariffs, who are consumers.
3. Unequal taxation, which is therefort
unjust, and tends to establish moHeyed
and landed aristoefaey, sgeh as EXISTS il
all monarchial governments.
Relying on the wisdom, intelligence anC
| patriotism Of the Anglo-Saxon race to re
deem our country from its present dis
graceful political thraldom, Tprefer beins
| identified with them in this noble enter
prise, and am therefore henceforth a Dem
| ocrat G. w. LOWRY.

A Democratic cotemporary thus truth
fully takes the portraits of the majority
of Radical editors:
a FACT.-There are plenty of editorial
owls who assume to have the wisdom of
Solomon and yet are as barren of real
knowledge as the radical party is of prin-
cip!e. Such grave and reverend beings
never cOndescend to indulge in argument,
much less are they capable of using gen
uine wit in repelling the attack of an
enemy. They can only remember the day
of the war, when their senseless epithats
and ribald abuse of the Democratic party
had some effect on the agitated brains Of
the people. Hence, when they are noticed
by a Democratic print, they begin to
shrek 'copperhead," ''rebelsympathizer," /"
traitor" &C., until they lave exhausted
the vile vocabulary which their masters,
renegade democrats, invented. But such
stale cries won't do with the people; they
are not fools, if some radical editors are,
