HENRY CLAY ox SLAVERY.-—“I have said that lnevel‘
could vote for it myself, and I repeat that I never can,
and never will vote, and no earthly power will ever make
me vote to spread slavery over territory where it does
not now cxist.”—He11ry Clog/‘s Sjneech, Feb. 6, 1850.
“ I FEEL there is nothing which the civilized world, if
they take notice of so humble .1 person as myself, will
reproa.ch me with, when, 1 say, as 1 said the other day,
I had made up my mind, for one, that under no circum-
stances would I consent to the farther extension of the
:irea of Slavery in the United States, or to the farther
increase of Slave Representation in the House of Repre-
sentatives.”——Spcech of Daniel Webster on Oregon Bill, ’48.

Throwing Away Votes;
It has always been the policy of the Loco
Foco party to conquer its opponents by divi-
ding them. At the present time, that policy
seems to have reached its highest pitch of
perfection. There is no more doubt that the
electoral vote of every State in the Union
will be cast either for JOHN C. FREMONT, or
“for James Buchanan, than there is of the com-
ing of the day of Election, yet we see a delib-
erate, persistent effort being made throughout
certain localities to induce honest. well-meau-
ing, conservative men to cast their votes for
"Mr. Fillmore, thereby to increase the chances
of Mr. Buchanan. The most bare-faced false-
_ hoods are daily uttered, sometimes by kuaves
who know better, at other times by men who
'_are themselves deceived, in relation to this
subject.. Take, for instance, the State of
New York; at the last election the Americans
polled about l-15,000 votes, the Republicans
140,000, and the Hard and Soft Democrats,
' united, about 135,000. No man in his senses
believes that of those who then voted the Re-
publican ticket, there are any who will now
vote otherwise than for Fremont. Of the
Americans, at least 60,000 were represented
in the North American Convention of June
12th, and will vote for Fremont ; 20,000 is a
small number to calculate upon as going over
to Fremont from the Softs. Now foot up as
above :
Republicans 140,000
Americans 60.000
“ Soft” Democrats 20,000
220,000
leaving for Buchanan 115,000
for Fillmore 75 ,000
190,000
We know that the above figures are relic.-
ble, and within a week, we have advices from
disinterested men from different parts of that
State, which fully confirm the foregoing view.
Now observe the sort of buuibug with which
the Fillmore Buchunites bolster up their posi‘
tion. A short time since, in Fillmore conven-
tion was called at Troy, pretendedly as an
old line Whig assembly. It was telegraphed
and reported and boasted of as a monster mee-
f.ing—18,000 present—and all that. Now
we have it from 9. gentleman who was present
at Troy during the whole day and evening on
that occasion, that at no time, even after the
delegations from abroad had arrived, did the
numbers in attendance exceed five hundred,
and those well known and marked Fillmore
Americans and Loco Focos. If we were at
liberty to give the name of our informant, no
one would question the correctness of his re-
port. The truth is, that the Fillmore excite-
ment is kcpt up in New York. not with any
expectation on the part of‘ Brooks & Co. to
carry the State for him, but to operate‘ upon
the canvass for Governor and State Ofiicers,
and to “put money in their purse” from the
impetus they may give the decaying fortunes
of the Express newspaper, while they laugh
in their sleeves at the simplicity and gullibil-
ity of their dupes.
In New England, the American party, as
such, has distinctly and fully adopted Fremont
as its candidate, and where else under Heav-
en is Mr. Fillmore to geta State ? The South
in a compact body is for Buchanau—upon the
- single issue of Slavery Extension, and hopes
to conquer the North by dividing the strength
of the latter upon different electoral tickets
;.?u the several States. He who deccives his
.-neighbor, and he wlio, with the means of
;E«'no.wledge open before him, suffers himself to
every
man who. by throwing away his vote on Fill-
'fiuiore,~hel_pst:o elect Buchanan, will have a
h,_".u:vy respousiricility resting on him in the day
of ,,‘u-2°21 account. ' "

The Contrast.
“Straws show which way the wind blows,"
so says the proverb, and we call attention to
the recent political meetings in this ‘village,
in the light of this maxim. Week before last
the Loco Foco managers caused a meeting to
be held here to advance the interests of Mr.
Buchanan in this vicinity. For two weeks
they had blown the trumpet of preparation.
Letters and expresses were sent to all the
egutions. Sim speakers from abroad were an-
nounced. And yet as the evening drew nigh,
fearful that with all their drumming they
might not be able to fill Phenix Hall, the lur-
gcst and most convenient room in the town
so‘ sir injuring’? the spinal -column as to .9005-'
for such purposes, at the last moment they
changed the place, and directed that the mee-
ting should be held in the Town House which
can only accommodate about two-thirds of
the number that can gather in Phenix Hall,
The night was a beautiful clear moonlight, and
by assiduous drumming, by delegates from ad-
joining towns, aud by the preence of about
two hundred Fremont men, they succeeded in
filling the Town House full, and so far as occu-
pying the space which they had allotted for the
purpose, by the means above mentioned, the
meeting was a success.
On Wednesday evening last, the Norwulk
Fremont Club held its regular meeting at Phe-
nix Hall, no extraordinary-measures were to-
ken, and but two Speakers were announced.-
A storm more severe than any which has visit-
ed us since last Spring, had raged for twenty-
. four hours.andwhilc the meeting was in session,
the rain fell in torrents, and yet the Hall was
filled with a larger number than assembled in
the Town House at the Loco Foco meeting of
the week previous.
Again, the Loco Foco managers imported
into this town two Custom House Oflicers, and
those alone, of the six Speakers announced.-
One of’ these was the notorious Capt. Ryn-
ders, of the more notorious Empire Club ; the
other was a. man named Gallagher, from the
New Haven Custom House. We appeal to
any one who was present, whether in their
speeches they once met the great issue be-
tween Free White Labor and Black Slave La-
bor now before the country. They talkcd the
old stale balderdash aboutdisuuion ;' they he-
lied and slandered Col. Fremont ; they at-
tacked clergymeu who dared to preach the
doctrine that man is responsible to God as
well for the manner in which he votes, as for
the mode in which he discharges or neglects
the other duties of life. They praised each
other, and defained their ‘opponents ; they
avoided the real question in every way ; they
raised issues that belong not to this canvass;
they talked about local affairs; they slaudercd
a citizen of this town in respect to his recent
discharge of his legislative duties; they shou-
ted, and screamed, and gesticulated ; but they
carefully avoided the only real issue which
now shakes this nation to its centre.
On the other hand, at the different meetings
of the friends of Col. Fremont in this town,
E. K. Foster of New Haven, A. Oakey Hall
and C. A. Dana of New York. and two of our
own citizens have addressed the people. We
appeal to any bearer of these gentlemen to
say whether their course has not been in strong
and marked contrast to that above described.
They have met the issues of the day fairly
and squarely . they have indulged in no false-
hood or abuse; they have relied upon the
simple truths, open to all men who will read,
for the success of their efforts, and we much
mistake the discernment of the citizens of
Norwalk, if this difference has not already at-
tracted aud strongly attracted their notice.-
The friends of Col. Fremont stand upon the im-
moveable basis of room; they mean to pre-
serve the Union for the purposes for which our
Fathers formed it ; they mean to maintain the
Constitution in accordance with the principles
upon which its Framers prepared it ; and to do
this they have no need to resort to lies and
blackguardism, and. however provoked, they
will not do it. We ask intelligent, thoughtful-
honest. conservative men to watch the course
of the “straws that show which way the wind
blows.” ,
FREMONT & VICTORY.
All Hail old Wilton !---Her Far-
mers in Council.
The friends of Freedom and Fremont made
a general rally at the Town House in Wilton,
on Friday Evening last, and were addressed
for two hours by Hon. A. Oakey Hall. The
House was jammed to its utmost capacity,
and many were unable to gain admittance.
A Delegation from old Ridgefield was present
(including their inimitable Glee Club, which
enlivened the meeting with their songs of
Freedom.) A large Delegation from the Nor-
walk Fremont Club was also present. The
spirit manifested indicated that old Wilton
was thoroughly aroused.
Westport -fiemont Club.
Westport is one of the most unpromising lo-
calities for freedom of any description (unless
it be freedom in bad liquor,)yet there is a gal-
lant "band of Fremonters here determined to
stand their ground despite bad rum, sham
democrats and deluded Fillmoreites. They
had a meeting at Bett’s Hall on Saturday
evening and were addressed by C. A. Dana,
Esq. of the New York Tribune, in a most elo-
queut and unanswerable argumentation of the
questions at issue in the present presidential
contest. His speech was of about two hour’s
duration. and taken all in all,was one of the
most convincing, chaste and elegant political
addresses to which we ever listened. About
the same line of argument was pursued there,
thaabe adopted here, but from the difference
of locality or difference of audience, or some
other cause, he seemed to speak with more
force and earnestness than with us. He is
certainly one of the most gifted and entertain-
ing speakers in the Republican cause, and we
sincerely wish that he might speak in "every
town in the state, if it were possible, before the
election. While giving his opinion as to the
majority Connecticut would give for Fremont
some one of thc,auditory,(suid to be a govern-
ment official,)dcmauded to know “ upon what
ground?” The interrogation, whether so in-
tended or not, indicated in its tone, not only
a disbelief in the ‘statement, but a. discourtesy
to the speaker. It had scarcely fallen from
the lips of thequestioner however, when Mr.
Dana raising himself to his full altiiude, in
an outburst of eloquenc, replied-—“ On the
ground that he is the candidate of Freedom .'
—On the ground that he is the Candidate of
FREE LABOR !—On the ground that Con"
nccticut is the land of Schools and Churches!
On the ground that Integrity/, Intelligence
and Virtue, are the distinguishing character‘
istics of her people !” These retorts were
greeted with such deafening applause that the
poor representative of Mr. Pierce. bad -the
best of grounds for grounding arms, and in-
voking a very small hole in the ground to hide
his discomfeiture. It is the prevailing opinion
about Westport that the “ unexpired term” of
official life will be required in repairing dam‘
ages. -
There was a grand rally of the friends ‘of
Fredom and Fremont at New Canaan on' Sat.
urday evening last. Hon. A. Oakey Hall ad.

Friday night he addressed an immense gath-
ering of Fremont men at Danbury. No hall
being able to hold the vast assemblage a stage
was erected from one of the windows for the
speaker, from which he was able to address
the multitude within and without. The ut-
most eutbusiasm prevailed, and clearly indi-
cated the popular solicitudc in behalf of- free
labor and freedom. ‘

and true, were addressed by Conductor. Coop-
er on Friday evening. Border Ruffianism finds
little quarter in Daricn, and although her vote
is small her majority will be relatively large

glad to say, has been re-opened. It is now in

THE OLD CHARTER OAK Pnos rn.u~ii.—The
celebrated Charter Oak, at Hartford, fell be-
fore the storm, ‘on Thursday morning. The
story of its fame, as affording in a cavity in
its trunk, the place of secretion for the old
British colonial charter of Connecticut, is fa-
miliar to all. After its fall thousands of peo-
ple visited it and bore away fragments. and
the whole tree will soon be distributed and its
parts preserved as relics. The tree measured’
33 feet in circumference at the bottom, and it
broke off about 6 feet from the ground. The
city bells were tolled at sundown as a mark of
general respect for the “brave old oak”. that
had fallen.
Snakes.
Recently, Mr. Albert Lockwood. of Wes-
ton, killed 'a rattlesnake with thirteen rattles.
He was killed in the" road near the Den woods,
and was five feet nine inches in length. The
curious in such matters, may see his snake-
ship’s outer garment stuffed, ' in Dr. Seelcy’s
cabinet at Georgetown, among his collection,
of curiosities. Since Mr. Lockwood killed
this one, two more have been killed near the
same place, one with eleven, and the other
with nine -rattles.
Mr. George Gould, of Georgetown, a few
days since killed an old snake with an inter-
esting little family of severity-tu:o,making in
all,seveuty-three which Mr. G. corded up on
the ground;
“The Campbclvs are Coming.”

cudgemudgeon cynics—disperse ye blue dev-
Vils, and “prepare to pucker” ye straight faced

mistake, at Phenix Hall next Wednesday
night. We consider the Campbell’s as far
ahead of the Buckley’s, as they are ahead of
the sixpeuny performers that infest the coun-
try, and we advise all persons who are afraid
of a right down rib-tickling jacket-splitting
entertainment, done up without low wit or
vulgarity, to stay away. But we know the
people will do no such thing, consequently.
they must suffer the consequences. ~
g‘ We observe that our editorial sister,
Drs. Lydia Sayer, of The Sybil, has taken a
partner forlife. Mr. Hasbrouck, of the Whig
Press, is the happy man. We trust their sup-
ply of “small caps” will always be equal to
the demand. -

votes to strike out the Kansas clause, in-
directly voted I against , the constituted

will probably close this-week.

this greatest wonder of the world. Is
it in Genesis 1, 26-28 ‘I
"And God said, Let us make man in
our image, after our likeness, and, let
them have dominion over the fish of the
sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over
the cattle, and overall the earth, and
over every creeping thing that creepcth
upon the earth.-
So God created man in his own image
in the image of God created be him ;-
male and female created be them.
And God blessed them, and God said
unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply,
and replenish the earth, and subdue it ;
and have dominion over the fish of the
sea, and over the fowl of the air, and
over every living thing that movetb up-
on the earth.” ,
Here God has recorded man's Bill of
Right: for ruling or having absolute do-
minion, Man is here authorized to
have dominion. ' But over what may he
have dominion '! l The stoonger over
the ‘weaken-the -white man over the
black man? man over man at all? No
nothing of the kind. ‘Among the sub-
ject: of his dominion, MAN, a human
being, is not included. His dominion
is confined to fish, fowl, cattle, and
creeping things. Till man is un-maned
and made into a thing, God does not an-
thorize his being put into subjection to
man. .
"But,” inquires-the objector, "did not
God allow the Hebrews to bring the
remnant of the Ceuaaniles who were
left after the conquest of the holy land,
into subjection, as beware of wood and
drawers of water Q” ‘In reply to this
queetion,I would remark, that the iniq-
uity of the idolurous Caunnites was
full, and God, instead ofdeslroyiug them
himself, as he did the old world and
Sodom, by some sudden judgment,com-
manded the Israelites to exterminate
them. This commlnd it was difficult to
obey. But under Joshua the Israelites
went on obeying it for. a while to the
very letter. The Gibeoui:es, however,
by imposing upon Israel, induced them
to make a treaty of peace and alliance
with them. When Israel found that
the Gibeonites had deceived them,though
they dare not violate their treaty by des-
troying them, they reduced them to an
easy servitude. And afterwards. when-
ever they wanted more laborers than
they had, they were allowed to buy ser-
vants of these nations who were doomed
to destruction. The nations deserved,
and might justly suffer, extermination.
It was, therefore, an act of benevolence
to buy them as servants, to be treated
according to the Hebrew laws, instead
of continuing an extermiuatiug war
against them. But because God allow-
all Israel, under certain circumstances,
to sbject doomed people to servitude, we
are not to info: that he allows any other
,uati,ou,to reduce its neighbors to slavery.
Before we can feel ounelves authorized
to justify Ameritan Slavery, we must
have something equivalent to in runs
SAITH 'rnt«i"Lonn, " White Americans
may enslave black Americans." or.
"white men may enslave negroes,” or
"the stronger may enslave the weaker. ”
Till such unequivocal authority can be
produced from God’a Word, we assert,
lwithout fear of contradiction, that the
Bible does not sanction American
Slavevy .' E. D. K.

Free-State Men to be Murdered or
' Driven Out.
We know that the teport of The St.
Louis Republican, which we publislied
yesterday, bad a secret meaning in ll.
which a day or a few days at most would
reveal. That revelalicn has come.
Hear it freemen, and act 3
For some two months or so, the Bot.-
der ltuflians have been seemingly quiet,
" All is peaceful in Kansas," they said.
" VVe have news of order and quiet. in
the Territory,” repeated the St. Louis
Republican. This was a blind; all this
while the Border Ruffiaiis were prepar-
ing to make a grand sweep over the
Territory, to band themselves together,
and by one descent,mutder,or drive out
of Kansas, the whole Free State Popula.
tiou !
Buford’s men. and the Georgians.
and Tennesseeaus, remained in Kansas
with the Missourians and erected foni-
ficazions, calling them colonies, in djf.
fereut parts of the‘ Territory. These
fortifications number eometeu or twelve,
There are three in Douglas County, two
at Osawatlamie, one of them command-
ed -by Coleman, who murdeied Dow, and
the rest extend along the Missouri Riv-
er.
The Missourians have been furnish-
ing the Carolinians, Georgians and their
owu men, with provisions, ammunition,
&c, ‘
When all was ready, the Ruflians
made no secret of their plan. They
thought that they had the Free State
men in their power. They resolved to
exert it. The question as to the time
was to be immediately after the adjourn-
ment of Congress.
The river, meanwhile, was guarded
at every point,‘ and no Free State man
reached Kansas up the Missouri or
fhrough the State of Missouri. '
So certain were the Rnfiians of success
that on the 12th, Mr. Hoyt of Mass.,
was shot down on the prairie by the
Ruffians at the blockhouse, near Wash-
ington Creek, and on the some day an-
other Free State manwus killed by these
brutal murderers.
Seeing this state of things, and know-
ing that life or death hung upon the is-
sue, the Free Stale men resolved to meet
the crisislike men.
They could not wait; for to do that
would be to insure the success of the
Rufliaus. .Tliey dared not do it. : for not
only would their property be sacrificed,
but their wives and children ruthlessly
violated and they murdered. They con-
cluded, rightly as we think. to meet the
foe,and:o show him that he was not
feared-—they determined to attack him
in one of his strong holds.
Franklin was one of the dens of the
Ruffians. They occupied a block-house
in the town. This block-house theFree
State men attacked and carried, who
had one main killed, Edward Sackett
from Detroit, and two more badly woun-
ded, Jack Brooks and Gunther.-
Five others were slighty wounded. The
Ruffians being strongly fortified escaped ;
only four men wounded ;but. they cried
for quarter and surrendered. The body
of them run like troopers. The Free
State men took sixty stand of arms. one
cannon’, powder, and a large amount.
of stores. These arms had been mostly
stolen from Lawrense, and were identi-
fied, though ammong them were a few
United States muskets.
The story of the St, Louis Republi-
can as to the robbing of the Post.-Office
or the sacking of Franklin, is a lie. Not
a building, not a citizen, nor the proper-
ty of any citizen,‘ was destroyed or dis-
turbed. The assault was confined to the
marauderzf deu—it began there and en-
ded there. No people knew better how
to respect personal and private rights
than the Freemen of Kansas.
This is the true state of affairs in
Kansas." A special messenger whose
verasity cannot be questioned, reached
St. Louis Monday mowing, and furnish-
ed these details. The forthcoming news
from the Territory will he look for with
deepest interest. Our -beliefis, that the
Free State men will be true, and if so,
God and the country will be with them.

Aichison and Slringfellow were on the

City.
Next afternoon, the 16th, we reached
Lexington. There, too, the news of
the defeat of the Rffians at Franklin
was full and accurate. On the 16th, a
large meeting was held, and the citizens
of Lexinton resolved to send their quota
of men to subdue the Freeinen of Kan-
sas,
From St, Joseph to Jefferson City,
meetings were held and men raised.
No secret is made of the design by
the Rufiians. They say they are ready,
have men and money enough, and will
sweep Kansas with fire and the sword.
They do not talk_,of anything but blood.
They swear l.h'at‘lbey will kill the d--d
Abolitionist, or drive them out of the
territory, and are prepared to do so.-—

foray. God be with the right!
