GRAND MASS MEETING AT LEwIsBURG
LEw1sBURG, GREENBRIER Co.,
September 5, 1870.

There has been an immense Republican
gathering in this place tO-day-the larg-
est ever held here. The large Court
house was packed 10 It's utmost capacity,
and for five hours the people listened to
the speeches made on the occasion. The
leading Democrats interrupted the pro
ceedings by propounding questions to the
speakers, but, getting back better than
they sent, finally gave It up, and the Re.
pu6licans had It ali their own way. The
people were addressed by Governor
Stevenson, Major Ncwlin and others.
The meeting lasted from two o'clock P. N.
until late in the evening, and was in every
sense o grand success. The Delegate
District, composed Of Greenbrier and Mon
roe, will give q Radical majority Of not
less than four hundred, perhaps five hun
Irpn.

Q"ibIing About Party Names.

The Courier-Journal, known for its long
devotion to the Wing party, has some sensi-
BILE remarks on the subject which may be
also read to advantage in this latitude. 1t
says.
THE Democratic party of to-day is a per-
fectly distinct organization. 1t embraces
no element of the old-line Democracy, that
may not be acquiesced in by the sturdiest
old-line Wing. The measures that produc-
ed the conflicts of the past were either de-
cided long ago or else they have disappear
ed from the minds of men. y wholly differ
ent series of issues has come upon the coun-
try, and, recognizing certain eXigencies of
the present, it is the mission of the Demo-
cratic party to address itself to them. But
for this it would be but dead lion, and we
might as well bury it. but for all this it
could not combine, as it does. many of the
best materials of parties. But for this it
could not represent, as it seeks to do, the
conservatism of the whole country, which
is simply a consolidation of all peaceful ele-
meutS against the warlike snirit of Il still
progressing and revolutionary and licent-
iOus craving for agitation and change. A
mission of this sort is good mission, no
matter how it Is marshaled or by what in
gradients it should be made up, or which,
ever name it may carry, and we seriously
counsel the parties from whom we have
taken the liberty ofquoting the preceding
illustrations, to read and to study fable
which they will find in the spelling book of
the venerable Noah Wegsrer, and which re-
lates to certain dog who crossed a stream
bearing bit of meat, and what befell him.
If this fable does not drop its moral in their
minds it will at least refresh their ortho-
graphy, and perhaps amuse them"

From the New York Day Book.


There has been certain kind of ambition
among the sealawags of the South to see
who could dive deepest and hold his breath
longest in the mud and filth and rottenness
of Mongrelism. Hitherto, Brown, of Geor-
gia, seems to have surpassed his rivals in
these respects, but he is now wholly eclips-
ed by one Alcorn, who writes himself Gov
ernor of Mississippi! Brown did have some
final lingerings of lost manhood. He even
tried to cover up the hole he plunged into,
and declared that political equality did not
carry with it social equality, and though no
one could mistake the spot or place where
he went down, his effort to conceal it show
ed some slight remain of the high nature
God endowed him with, in common with
his kind. But Aleorn, instead of striving
to conceal his plunge into the bottomlCss
filth and nastiness of Mongrelism, declares
that he delights in it, that it is delicious,
and that he means to live down there the
rest of his days, without even an attempt to
breathe the upper air again!

The Kinds County Gazette adds u
recital of the main facts Of the homicide
of Mr.. Tuck, the following proper com
ments
1t must be remembered that the officer
was a stranger-a man who belonged 70 lhat
army which pillaged and devastated our
homes and our State few years ago; and
that In each case they were exercising the
powers of local officers without the consent
and contrary TO the expressed will of the
people over whom they were riding rough
shod. If men, in the broad blaze of the
10Th century, are so brave and reckless as
TO be willing, for little brief authority. to
set at defiance the viii and wishes OF the
whole community in which they are but
temporarily staying, they should certainly
be brave enough to meet death at any mo
ment. We do not, of course, tolerate or give
countenance to the shedding OF human
blood in any case; but we mean 10 say that
such affairs as this must naturally be eX-
pected so long as the system of forcing pub
tic officers on this people is continued. Our
citizens will naturally obey and respect Of
while they can but despise and loathe those,
however worthy they may really be, who
are forced upon them, and who they regard
as mere interlopers and spectators upon
our misfortunes. We have known Mr.. SiZer
for twenty years, and have ever known hi m
as a kind and peaceable man. We think
there must be facts in the case that are not
yet made public.

The Two SCRoGGINSEs.-Mr. john H.
Chisholm, who died in this city (Phil@Al-
phia) about twenty years ago, was paying
teller of the Farmers and Mechanics Bank
for several years before his death. He was
a native of South Carolina. and was about
fifty years of age at the time of his decease.
His fine social qualities made him very
popular. Among his other talents was his
great ability as rQc0nteur, or relater of
anecdotes. One of his good stories was the
following. which was known among his
friends as The Two ScTogginses;" An
Irishman, who had been absent for some
time on fishing excursion. met one of his
friends, who inquired of him what luck he
had had. "Oh,' he replied, I'VE had most
Elegant time entirely" "Who were ofyour
party 2" asked his friend. There were FIVE
of u.s. was his answer. ''There was myself
one the two Scrogginses two; Terry Toole.
three; Jim kasin, four. There were five of
us. There was Terry Toole, one; myself,
two; the two Scrogginses, three and Jim
Kasin, four There certainly aeere five of us.
There was Jim Kasin, one; Terry Toole.
two myself three; and the two Scrogginses,
four. It's very strange that can't remem-
Der who the fifth man was, There was N.Y.
