no pickings, and no use of public money.
That is a dull business, and not fit for men
of fenlarged minds. New York is the great
est and richest city in the world because
she pays the heaviest taxes. If you want
to make Northumberland County the great
est county in the State, pile on the taxes.
Your farmers and your mechanics, and
mine operators, and your wOrkingmen can
afford TO pay ten times heavier taxes, and
they will be proud of it. Stand up to the
great doctrine of"Universal Liberty con-
troll primary elections by any means and
the ballot box, and if you want help, send
on to us and we will send you the boys.
The cannon fred, the people shouted,
and the band played the touching air !:
'"The girl with the golden locks.'
High Sheriff Hester responded in few
brief, nervous remarks, and said: "Uui-
vcrsal Liberty'' for him. A lean treasury
is darned mean thing. It's like the empty
belly of an OK, ill it up with water and the
beast looks we'll or like a collapsed gum
bag, blow her up with wind and she looks
full. A full treasury, finger in the pie,
and all the profits and power and honor of
the High Sheriffof northumberland n county.
Friend Scott for our Judge, and he will
'reward his friends and humble his enc
mics.
Universal shouting, clapping of hands
and hurrahing for High Sheriff Hester and
Judge Scott. The band played the old
tanglodfoot air: Coming thro' the rye ~
Father IIecker was called on for a speech.
lie rose deliberately, and in loud and
solemn voice said / have watched the
signs of the times, and l declare in presence
of this immense assembly that before this
century is ended the Roman Catholic rcli-
gion will be the national religion, and the
Government be under the control Of the
church, and then for the great doctrine of
"Universal Liberty"
Much cheering. The band played "a
good time coming, boys"
The editor of the Tablet of New York,
an organ of the Irish Roman Catholic
Church, was called on and said:
The Roman Church is higher and above
all government, and the government must
depend on and be subject to the church.
The Pope, the head of the church must be
the head of the government.
Loud cheering. The band played the
favorite air, Dance, Juba, dance'
One of the brethren, who was distinguish
ed for his bravery on the 18th July, said
We abide our time. Never again shall a
Protestant procession celebrate in New
Y ork the battle of the Boyne, for two or
three hundred men and women occupying
the tops Of the houses with hand-grenadcs
and other misscls, can conquer 20, 900 police
in the street below. This he had said at a
large public meeting in New York the night
of the 18th of July,and would repeat it here
again.
Roars and shouts-fring OF cannon. The
band played the plaiutive air 4: Come
Mary to the window, thy true love is here

ban with black ostrich feather in the top;
bloomer costume of scarlet silk, the skirt OF
the coat reaching only to the knee; n low
cavalry boot covering the leg, and an ample
white sash encircling the waist and its folds
reaching the feet.
One Of the sister, heroinos of the 18th July
was called on and she sang a speech in q
loud, shrill voice, the burden of which was,
| that the water of the Boyne was cursed
after the battle, and since then fish cannot
| live in it, nor man nor beast can drink OF
| it and live. Then why try to bring it into
New York every 18th of July to poison
their families and their chidrenY = That
she and her brave sisters would die fighting
rather than let the Protestant poison water
of the Boyue come TO New York.
Tremendous cheering. The band played
I "Salie, can you die for me 20
