Hitnnv our on SLAVERY.-—“ I have said that Inever
could vote for it myself, and I repeat that I never can,
and never will vote, and no earthly pawerwill ever make
me vote to spread slavery over territory where it does
not now exist.”—Henry Clay’: Speech, Feb. 6, 1850.

“I FEEL there is nothing which the civilized world, if
they take notice of so humble a person as myself, will
reproach me with, when, 1 say, as I 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
area of Slavery in the United States, 0 to the farther
increase of Slave Representation in the rlouse of Repre-
sentatives .’ ’—Spcech qf Daniel Websleron Oregon Bill, ’48.

" Tns Anonmox or nonrssric SI..sv'saY is the greatest ob-
ject of desire in these Colonies, where it was unhappily
introduced in their infant state.”—J’efl‘erson, in 1774.

“ I nmnrlu concur in all movements which have for
their objects ‘ to repair the mischiefs arising from the
violation of good faith in the repeal of the Missouri
Compromise.’ I am opposed to Slavery in the abstract
and upon principle, sustained and made habitual by
long settled convictions.

“ While I feel inflexible in the belief thatit ought not
to be interfered with where it exists under the shield of
State Sovereignty, I am inflexibly opposed to its exten-

sion on this continent beyond its present limits.”
Joan C. Fxsnonr.

“ Fans Lanes. is the natural capital which constitutes
the real wealth of this great country, and creates that
intelligent power in the masses alone to be relied on as
the bulwark of free institutions.”—Jonn C. Fasnoxr.

ORGANIZATION.

The following appropriate remarks upon the
duty of organization are from the Providence
Journal. They will apply’ to Connecticut
equally as well to Rhode Island.

Elections are carried by careful,
through, and minute organization, reach-
ing to every district and every voter.
The party that accomplishes this is pret-
ty sure of success in anything like an
equal contest with a party that neglects
it.

We sometimes apprehend that in the
reliance which is placed upon large
meeting and enthusiastic crowds of
people, in the numerous accessions from
the Democratic party, and in the unan-
swerable facts and argiiments of the
Republican party, the absolute impor-
tance of organization may be overlooked
in some places. There ought to be a
complete political census taken of the
whole State. It has been done, or is
in the way of being done, in some im-
portant districts, but we wish to hear
that it is going on in every town and in
every school district of the State. The
Fremont Clubs can in no way render
better service than in attending to this
primary duty. In Maine our friends
knew before the election how 119,000
of the 121,000 votes of the State would
be given ; they knew where the work
was most needed, and exactly how to do
it, And look at the result, in a State
under ordinary circumstances Democrat-
ic, and by reason of its great extent of
coast,its numerous oflice holders, and the
complete alliance between the Buchanan
and the Fillmore wings, peculiarly vlifi-
cult for the Republicans to carry.-
There is not a State in the whole North,
probably, where the same exertions, in
the same way, would not occomplish as
much as has been done in Maine. In no
States are the difficulties to be overcome
greater than those over which the Re-
publcans of Maine succeeded by perse-
verance and determination.

 

Our Steamboat
Continues to run with great regularity, and
is, we learn, daily increasing her business.-
The owners and managers of the John Hart

are men who will do all in their powerto ac- .

commodate the business interests of'Norwalk,
and will be satisfied at this season of the year
with freight to pay their running expenses.-
She is a safe and rapid boat, and our friends
particularly along the line of the Danbury
Road will find in her ‘a pleasant medium for
reaching the city, at half the cost of a pas-
sage by cars. Citizens of Norwa lk , one and
all, subserve your own interests by sustaining
the Steamboat.

The Bridgeport Fizzle.

If anything were,wanting to prove that the
"people” are wanting in the Buchanan move
ment for Slavery Extension, it is found in the
fact that all their efforts at getting up mass
meetings are complete failuresas to numbers.
The mass meeting of Bridgeport last week.
announced by mammoth posters, and calling
upon the Democracy of the 10th District to
rally and give their Senator Toucey an ear-
nest of their appreciation of the stand he took
in the U. S. Senate, turned out a complete
failure. Not enough persons were present to
constitute it even a respectable local meeting,
uotwwithstanding Excursion Trains were an-
nounced to run upon the New York and New
Haven, and the Housatonic, and Naugatuck

' Roads for the accommodation of the Democ-
racy. We are told that Senator Toncey felt
keenly this implied condemnation of his posi-
tion, by the motley crowd that constituted his
auditory.

The Darien Fizzlé.

We have it not in our heart to jeer a fallen
fee, but the great flaming posters that greeted
the eyes of the enthusiastic Frcmonter on
«every hand. on their expedition to Stamford
last week, announcing a “grand mass meeting
and Hickory Pole raising at Darien, to be ad-
dressed by “ distinguished speakers f'rom
abroad,” etc. , led all to suppose that the sham
Democracy, for once, were about to show their
strength. This they did, but it is evident
their .9:'rcngth. consists not in their numbers.

The mammoth posters also announced that ‘

“arrangements had been made to have the 11
ce’clock Express train stop at Darien for‘ the
accommodation of Delegations from the
East.” So when our friend Stock neared the
Darien Station, the local Democracy rushed to
the Depot in wild goose file to receive the
Delegations from Norwalk, Wcstport, South-
port, Fairfield, and Bridgeport, when 10, but
.one solitary man descended from the cars!
As we remarked at the outset, we have no
Jieart to ieera fallen l'oe,but we know our
lBuchanan friend, will pardon something to
rthe ludicrous-ness of his advent, and of the
iridiculons fizzle, total and absolute, that look .
glace even with the help of his presence.

of them, but we will not anticipate the result

THE STATE FAIR.
New Haven, Ocr. 10th, 1856.

The State Fair has just closed its annual ex-
hibition, and so far as the show of fine animals
is concerned and the number of persons in at-
tendance, it has surpassed all that have pre-
ceded it. The weather has been most delight-
ful and the receipts which are over $10,000,
show that about 75,000 persons must have been
in attendance. About six thousand five hund-
red single admission tickets were sold on
Thursday alone, and it was estimated that
there were from 30 to 40,000 persons on the
ground during the day. Fairfield Ceunty for
a wonder, was well represented and seems to
have been more than usually fortunate in com-
manding prizes. We have the stock that will
do it in our County, but our farmers dont like
the trouble and risk attendant upon the trans-
portation of their stock.‘ In Working Cattle’
particularly, the towns of Wilton, N orwalk and
Greenwich, could have swept the board. But
we must wait for Bridgeport to secure the
State Fair, before we can make anything like
a fair show of our strength. The following
is the list of entries from our county:

Short Horn Bull, owned by Hill dc Wake-

man, Bridgeport, $l2.00
Devon bull owned by same.
Durham Cow, owned by same, 10.00

“ Calf, Henry Beers, Newtown.

she deserved, a premium.

served to do, on his pure and carefully bred
fowls.

L. as L. B. Sterling, Bridgeport, some dozen
varieties of pigeons and doves.

On Friday an addressess was delivered by
Judge Butler, which was replete with soiind
practical common sense, just what our farmers
most need, and just what they most seldom
get. We are ‘glad to learn that it is to be
published, and we hope will be placed in tee
hands of every farmer in the State.

The Fair, in all respects, was a graet suc-
cess, and the public are indcbged to the unti-
ring and almost Herculean labors of HENRY
A. DYER, Secretary, for the triumph. We
never saw a man of his apparently fr ail
physical frame, bear, without the least irrita-
tion, the incessant boreings and importunities
of the thousand inquisitive questioners who
beset his path on all sides, and on all occa-
sions.

 

Excursion to New York.

A large party of young Fremonters is being
made up to go to New York on Wednesday by
the John Hart, to listen to Mr. Ferry, who
speaks at the Tabernacle on Wednesday Even-
ning, and also to pay their respects to Col.
Fremont on Thuradav morning. Come boys,
let’s get up a big delegation to call on the
Path-finder. The Hart leaves her dock, South
Norwalk at 8 o’clock and reaches the city at 12.

 

West Norwalk-

Orris S. Ferry spoke at West Norwalk on
Sziturday evening, to a crowded room of ear-
nest and attentive listeners. The Norwalk
and Darien Glee Clubs were present, and sang
some most excellent songs. The “greasy
mechanics,” and “low bred operatives” love
Freedom, and will vote for Liberty in Novem-
ber.

 

fl‘ The Buchaneer-s put Darien in their
column and claim it as a gain. They have no
right to do any such thing. The most that
they can claim, is that the town is divided.-
The Republicans elec ted the Town Clerk, one
Selectman, and most of the other ofiicers.——
The Fusion of Buchanan and Fillmoreites
elected two of the Selectmen, by a very close
vote.

The Fremonters are sure to carry the town
in November.

 

The Constitutional Amendment

We leam from the Secretary of State, says
the .1\"ew Haven Courier, that the returns re-
ceived at his ollicejndicate the positive defeat
of the proposed amendment to the Constitu-
tion. making the Judges elective every eight

favor of it, and the vote is very small.

Thus a proposition which received hardly
any opposition in the Legislature is very ef-
fcctually killed by the people. Good for
them!

E‘ It is not often that we stop to adver-
tise a blunder which has escaped notice,
by a subsequent correction, but when our type
or our compositors make us use the word
“impaired” for improved, and “land” for lord
as it did in our last, in our notice of the able
speech of Dwight Morris, Esq.. of Bridgeport,
we must utter our protest, although the intel-
ligent Yankee reader may be able to guess
what was intended.

Those City Lots
Are not quite all taken, although it is be-
coming one of the most popular investments
of the day. Mr. Bissell informs us that he has
disposed of about one hundred, since he has

commenced their sale. They cannot but
prove profitable investments.

@*At the Town Meeting in Stamford on
Monday week, the Fillmore men and Buchan-
an men united to defeat the Republicans who
had out only about two thirds of their men.-
Some idea of the coalition may be gleaned
from the following article in the Advocate :

|]:;-7-' It is confidently believed that
the whole Buchanan and Fillmore
strength was out, while the Fremont,
vote will be increased at least two hun-
dred in the November election.

The Republicans are perfectly satis-
fied with the result. The coalition
between modern Deinocracyand ancient
Whiggery was comp|ete—and yet they
are equalled by two, thirds of the Re-
publican vote.

We doubt whether there was ever
before witnessed a more debasing coali-
tion than the one in this town yesterday.
The Fillmoiirners absolutely crawled on
their bellies that they might kiss the
feet of their brethren in the cause of
slavery extension, Men who have
heretofore ,-zloried in the name of Whig,
actually peddled the locofoco ticket and
begged votes for the purpose of throwing
tlid Republican partv in a minority and
hiding their own weakness. “'6 do
not perceive anything manly in such a
course as tliis—t.lmngli our Fillmore
neighbors may view the matter diffe-
rently, and conceive that it is the very
essence of patriotism to fraternize with
those to whmn they profess to be opposed
in every vital principle, merely for the
sake of spiting those who are really and
,-amestly seeking to carry out. the very
p,-‘mcip.';=.s to which they pretended‘ to
be devoted, We have doubted the sin-
cemy of their professions, and their
action yesterday cor.t’ii‘:1lS those. doubts.
They speak as plainly as HOEIOIIS 0811
speak. “If we can’t save the Republic
from the further aggession of Slavery,
Fremont shan't for we will aid Buchan-
an and the nigger-drivers wiili our whole
strengtb,,tor in other words-—“ If we
can’t Rule the country, we will Ruin

I)!

The friendship of such men is more
to be feared than the hatred of an open
enemy.

From the Cincinnati Commercial.
About Catholic Priests Marrying
Protestants.

A couple of gentlemen of this city
made a bet the other day, about the
rules and regulations enforced by Cath-
olics in the performance of the marriage
service. One took the New York Ex-
press ground——which has been endorsed
and reiterated by all the Fillmore and
Buchanan papers of the Union—that a
Catholic priest would not, under any
influence short of compulsion, marry a
couple unless one was a Catholic, who
would take vows to brino up the child-
ren, the fruit of the uni , in the Cath-
olic faith. This assertion was made
as every body should know, with the
design of produciog the impression, that
as Col. Fremont was married by aCat.h-
olic priest, and that as Jessie was Q
Presbyterian, that the Colonel must.
have been a Catholic. Well, the gen-
tlemen whom we mentioned as differ-
ing on the subject, put up their money,-
and call at St. Xavier’s college, and
asked for the decisive inforinat.ion.-_—-
They speedily learned that where coup-
les present themselves, desiring to be
united in manage, and both are Protes-
tants, that Catholic priests have no
hesitation whatever in marrying them.
But, if one of the parties is a Catholic,
and the other a Protestant. there are
objections whicli, while both parties
are firm in their faith, are insurmounta-
ble. It follows, that as Jessie Benton is a
Presbyterian, and no one ever accused
her of forsnking her religion that Col.
Fremont could not have been united 'u_;z'tb.
her in marnnge, by a Catholic priest,
if he had been to Calholzlc. If those"
who have insisted so Vehemeflill’ “'5'-
Fremont was a Catholic, were honest 01‘
decent, this would end the controversy. '
But they have sworn that he is a Cath-
olic, and are determined he shall be one.
And now if any of the ardent young:
Fillmore men about town don't believe
that Catholic priests will marry Protes-
ants, let them take a nice heretic of the
feminine gender under their left wing
—next the heart—aiid see if they can I
have the knot tied in quick time.

U? Mr. Botts, in his late famous
speech at Richmond, denounces those
who :hreaten a dissolution of the Union
in the event of Fremont’s election, as.
traitors. He will not believe that Mr.‘
Fillmore used the treasonable language:
on tliispoitit, imputed to him, (thotigh
he undoubtedly did,) and says that he
would not stand up in his support, if he
believed him guilty of such folly-—
Never was a candidate so unmercifully

Nothing candidate has been. He is
aterally treated as :1 Know Nothing;
and no dull donkey ever received more:
kicks and cuffs from a surly groom, for‘:
his perverse waywardness. On all
hands he "catches it,” but more particu-
larly from his Southern friends. But
they have taken him " for better, for
worse,” and must stick to him until the
end of the campaign, when he will re-
tixe, _Wll.lI curses loud and deep,” from
his friends, to linow Notlm._._; oi .-«-m.ty.

Gnonesrown, Oct. 13th, 1856.
Fmnnn B.-—About two o’clock on
Saturday afternoon last, a few of the
voters in this place, taking into conside-
erution the extraordinary efforts of the
opposition, resolved to have a meeting
that evening to organize :1 Fremont
Club; Accordingly they met, and for
the limited notice given, there was a
large number in attendance. Among
those present, was almost every voter in
this school district, and all, with the ex-
ception of five or six signed their names
to the resolutions, and formed the
“G.eorgetown Fremont Club.” J. P.
Cooper, Esq., was elected President, and
after the other officers were selected, the
meeting was ably addressed by Messrs.
Main and St. John, after which Mr. J.
O. St. John presented the Club with an
elegant banner, and then the meeting
adjourned, to meet Saturday evening
next, when speakers from abroad are
expected.

But little time for action remains be,
fore election, yet there is time to do some
good, and our . opponents, both Fill-
more and Buchanan, are straining every
nerve, and have even united to try to
defeat us, but. far outnumber them all
in this place. Although both these par-
ties are in reality off the same piece of
cloth, they do not appear to unite with

For 1/IE ./Vurwallc Gazette,
American Slavery not sanctioni-
- ed by the Bible.
Says the objector, “Did not Slavery
exist in the'tinie of Christ and his apos-
tles? And if it was wrong, why did not
they denounce it '3" In reply, I would
remark that~there were reasons at that
time, and in that country, why they
should,pursue a different course. The
Jews were in subjection to the Romans,
and had no hand, directly or indirectly,
in making (their laws and institutions.
Consequently, any attempt to interfere
with those laws and institutions might
have greatly embarrassed the cause of
Christianity, w out beucfittiiig the op-
pressed classes in the Empire. They
chose, therefore, to seek the emuncipa-
tion of the enslaved, by a more indirect,
and less offensive course. Instead of'»>a’At'-'
tempting to butter down the strongholds
of slavery by external assaults, they pur-
sued the mincing process, which, in due
time, blew the whole system to atoms.
That our divine Savior disapproved of
all slavery and oppression, is perfectly
manifest from Luke iv: 16-18. Here
we are told that the Book of the Proph-
et Isaiah was handed him in which to
read, and from which to preach to the
people in the synagogue. And though
there were hundreds of good texts in
that book. he chose the one recorded in

that affection which brethren should
have for each other, but mix together
somewhat like oil and water. They
have, in some places, created a sort of
affinity for each other, by putting into
the mixture plenty of lie, and have at

keepers as soft soap, which they mean

Capt Jolm Brown of Ka.nsas.—The
ruflian papers of Missouri, and their
echoes elsewhere, ve represented
Capt. John Brown, who has figured
prominently in the war in Kansas, as
not only a very terrible fellow, but blood-
thirsty ruflian, ravaging the territory
with his gang. and robbing, murdering,
and burning houses in most ruflianly
style. This Capt. Brown was formerly
a resident. of this city, engaged in the
wool business, and those who recollect
him will be slow to believe him capa-
ble of the atrocities charged against
him. The truth is, he is merely a brave
man, and in defending himself and his
neighbors against the assassins and rob-
bers let loose upon them, has made him-
seifa terror to the evi-doers. It was
under his lead that O.-teaivatoinie was
defended with great courage against
an overwelming force, and a" large num-
ber of the assailants killed and wounded.
Although the rufiians finally took the
place, and pillaged and burnt the houses,
Capt. Brown's company made good their
retreat, with the loss offive killed, among
whom was one of his sons. ‘Another
son of Capt. Brown was among the Free
State prisoners released at Lecoinpton.
The Browns are spoken of with the
greatest respect and regard by the Free
State men of Kansas, as well for their
excellent character as for their personal
courage, and their readiness to expose
themselves to danger and death in the
defence of their neighbors. When the
history of Kansas is truly written, the
name of Capt. John Brown will be em-
inent amoug its early patriots and defen-
fenders. He can afford to be stigma-
tized as a ruflian now by those who up-
hold the invaders of the territory.

Springfield Republican.

@' This same Capt. Brown, is brother of
J. R. Brown of this town, ‘and a n-it_ivc of
Litchfield County in this State. His father
was a soldier in the Revolution, and bravely
bore arms agoinst the enemies of Liberty of
the days of 776, his son does but the same on
the plains of Kansas. He is a kind hearted
gentleman, and a Christian man, one who has
learned from the teachings of his bible, that
“resistance to tyrants is obedience to God.”

3:?’ There are men to-day supporting
Fillmore and Donelson who do not mean
to aid the triumph of Buchanan and the
Border Ruffiaus. We ask these to
consider what is to day the spirit and
tone of the Fillmore Press in the Free
States—how it neglects no opportunity
to disparage and blacken the heroic band
so nobly standing, and struggling, and
suffeiing, for Free Labor in Kansas-
liow it ridicules all who openly sympa-
iliize with them as “sllriekers for Free-
dom”-—how it contributes nothing to-
ward sustaining the Free-State men of
Kansas, but tries to prevent others from
contributing for that purpose—and how
it does whatever it can, wherever it
cannot secure votes for Fillmore, at least
to turn them against Fremont.

There are to-day Fillmore Electorl
Ticket running in Connecticut, Rhode
Island, Massachusetts, Vermont, Perin-
sylvania, Ohio, Indiana and Illinois.-—
Nobody imagines that one of them can
be elec'.ed—tliat the Fillmore ticket in
any of the doubtful States—except New-
York and possibly New Jersey-—can
come out even second-best The only
possible effect of running Fillmore tick-
ets in these States is to draw off votes
enough that would otlierwiie be cast for
Fremont to secure the electors for Bu-
chanan. And this is the result for v.~'hicli
Messrs. David Paul Brown, Wm. Hal-
stead, Austin Baldwin & Co. are really
working. How much more manly to
come square out for Buclianan at once,
like Rufus .C.lloate, Fletcher Webster
and Joe VVhite.

more. But it is calculated that five
thousand votes may be secured for him,
and that this number will mainly be
cast by VOll.‘l’S who would naturally pre.

believes that it can be carried for Fill-_

the 61st chapter and 1st verse-.—"Tlie
Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because
he hath anointed me to preach the Gos-
pcl to the poor; he hath sent me to
heal the hroken-hearted, to preach deliv

erance to the captives, andgecovering of
sight to the blind, and to set at liberty
them that are bruise .” "And he be.

gun to say unto them, ‘this day is this

scripture fullfilled in your ears.’ And
all hear him witness, and wondered at
the gracious words, which proceeded out
of his mouth.” The preaching and la-
bors of Jesus were pnrticularly consol-
ing to the poor and oppressed, and their
direct tendency was to lead oppressors
and slaveholders "to loose the bands of
wickedness, to 14‘ the lteavy burdens,
to let the oppresssd go free, and to break
every yoke." What our Lord said of
the hypocritical professors of religion in
his day, may be applied with equal force
to many such in our time, “They bind
heavy burdens, and grevious to be borne,
and lay them on men's shoulders; but

they themselves, will not move them
with one of their fin<_rers.”

That the apostle Paul disapproved of
slavery, is evident from his direction to
masters to render to their servants "that
which isjust and equal ;” and his re-
mark toa servant, "if thou mayest be
free, use it rather.” In sending back
(not by force,) Onesimus,a runaway-sen
vant, to this master, Paul directs Phile-
mon to receive him, not as a servant. but
above a servant,: a. brother be-loved—re.
ceive him even as myself.” From these
brief hints of the feelings of Paul, on
ihe subject of slavery, as it existed in
his day, we perceive clearly that he was
an Anti-Slavery man, and was ready to
do all, which a prudent regard to the

him to do, for its extermination.

“An argument drawn from the New
Testament, is sometimes stated thus :-
The apostles, by their specific directions
to masters and servants, did, defacto,
justify the relation which existed be-
tween the slaveholder and his slave.”

To this we answer ; (1) This argu-
gument takes for granted, what has
never been proved, viz: that all the ser-
vants and masters mentioned in the New
Testament, were slaves and slaveltold-
den. (2) But, admitting that the apos-
tles did mean to justify the “relation”
which existed betiveen master and slave,
when that "relation" gave the master
the body of the slave as his absolute
property, then it follows as an undeni-
able consequence that the holy apostles
did mean tojustify all the “rights” to
which this “relation” entitled the mas-
ter. If they justified such a “relation,”
they justified and approved all the parts
of which it was composed. And hence
it would follow, that the apostles justi-
fied, and sanctioned a relation which an-
thorized every master to commit the/t,
adultery and murder. Those Romans
who held slaves in that relation, had a
right in virtue of it, not only “to box”
them or “to cuff” them “on the ear,” but
they were auihorized and empowered by
this relation to torture theui, to maim
them, or to put them to death in any way
they chose, and, according to D1-_ Tay-
|or’s “Elements of Civil Law,” those
slaves could not be injured in any way.
And a relation which authorized and jus-
tified such cruellies. sncli horrible, and.
we may add, diabolical injustice as all
this, many professing Christians and
Ministers of the Gospel, -pretend to be-
licve is "authorized,” "permiited,” and
“sanctioned by the Bible 3!!"

lllln. En1roii.—-'l“tie Republican Stock
still holds out in the great city, I see
in a Democratic paper here, an article
stating that Coimecticut will surely give
a large majority for Buchanan & Breck-
inridge. It is the first Journal that has
had the courage to express such a pre-
snmptous opinion. For myself, I feel
confident that John C. Fremont Will
curry not only Connecticut, but the
great State of New York in the bargain,
notwitlistanding the assertions of Buch-
anan newspapers to the contrary, An

was held at thc- Academy of Music, on
Tuesday in honor of the arrival of
Frederick I-lecker in this city. At the
ope.-uinu hour. the vast Hall was crowd-
ed to its utmost, so that it was impossi-
ble to obtain admittance. The speakers
were Mr. Frederick Kapp, President of
the German Republican Executive Coin-
mittec; Mr. Gustavus Strnve, Mr. Fred-
erick Muench of Hermann, Missouri,
and lastly, Frederick I-Iecker, Esq., who
made an eloquent and tliriling address,
and left. the stand amid immense ap-
plause. This shows that we have every
reason to believe that our German breth-
ren will vote the Republican ticket at
the election in November. I extract the
following from Gov. Floyd's speech on
the steps of the Merchants’ Exchange
in this city. He says :-

“I tell you, fellow citizens. Fillmore men
and Republicans, if you can show me that the
candidate of the black republican party can
only be beaten by my vote being cast for Mr.
Fillmore, that I will give my vote to Mr. Fill
more if the ground opens and swallows me.
(Great applause.) And I will tell you some-
thing more. Virginia. democratic Virginia,
that never l'ailed and never faltercd—(a voice
_«-Neber tire”)—aye, and never tired either,
my friend, since the British flag took its re-
ceding course across the waters of the Atlantic
— Virginia, too. will come up and stand at my
back in that moment and in that vote. That
is all I‘ have got to say.”

Hear what Horace Greeley says to the
above in a letter to the Hon. Erastus
Brooks. Mr. Greeley says :—

“Now Gov. Floyd knows perfectly well that
there is no danger that he will ever be called
on to redeem these promises—that at least
three-fourths of all the electors opposed to
Fremont, will be Buchaneers like himself;
and he made this overture with the single ob-
vions purpose of bridging the gulf between
your followers and his.—so that the Fillmore
men may, at the ‘fitting moment, be easily tur-
ned over to the leading Pro-Slavery candidate.
lam confident he did not make it without
ground of expectation that it would be ac-
cepted.”

Both of the above extracts may be

found in the N. Y. Tribune of Oct. 8.-
It would seem that the Buchanan men
were doubtful which way to vote, as it
is their desire to defeat Fremont. The
Tribune says that Gov. Floyd was sere-
naded the other night in front of the
New York Hotel, in acknowledgment of
his Wall street. speech. Now, Mr. Floyd

such a demonstration of Capt. Rynders,
(by whom the party were headed,) who
was conspicuous in his efforts to break
up the meeting in front of the Exchange,
some weeks since, assembled to hear N.
P. Banks.

Col. Fremont is visited daily at his
residence in Ninth street, by the various
Republican Clubs and Associations in
this city, besides strangers and others in
the city. If the Republicans go on as
they have commenced. Mr. Fremont is
sure to be our next President.

313- The OPINIONS of the distinguish-
ed men of the nation were all highly in
favor of John C. Fremont, at his (70Il-

quest of California. Fremont was then

not in the way of their ambition, and
they could tell the truth. LEWIS Cass
of Michigan, in the U. S. Senate, spoke
of “the consummate skill and courage
which Col. Fremont had exhibited in an
expedition teeming with extraordinary
and romantic interest.” See Congres-

sional Globe.
John S. DIX of New York, (Cong.
Globe, vol. 18, P\ 559,) says :

-‘I do not know that any explanation
further than that which has already been
given by the Honorable -Senator from
Michigan is necessary to vindicate the
propriety of passing the bill. The pecn.
niarv obligations for the discharge of
wliiivli it ‘provides, were contracted in
good faith for the purpose of subduing
the country, and expelling from it the
military forces of Mexico. In the exe
cution of these objects, the young and
accomplislied officer, Col. Fremont, ex-
hibited a combination of energy, promp-
titude, sagacity and prudence which in-
dicates the highest capacity for civil and
military command, and in addition to
what he has done for the cause of sci-
ence, in has given him a reputation at
home and abroad 0f'Wlllcll men much
older and more experienced than himself
might well be proud. Thattlie country
will do justice to his valuable and dis-
tinguished services, I entertain not the
slightest doubt.

ii II

There is no doubt that his [Fremont’s]
rapid and decisive movements kept Cali-
fornia out of the hands of the British
subjects, and perhaps out of the hands
of the British Government.

ilk it it it-

It isin this point of view that the
transactions possess the greatest interest
and importance and that the sagecity,
proinptitude and decision of our youth-
ful commander in California at the time
disturbances broke out, have given liiui
the strongest claim on his countrytnen.
Any falteriiig on his part, any hesituncy
in acting promptly, iiiiglit, have cpst us

In the some debate, VVILLIAM ALLEN

VVith such testimonials in favor ofthc
ability and executive powers of our can-
didate from the highest. Democratic au-
thority, how absurd does the yclping of
the little our dogs among the Buchanan-
ites sound when they bark against the
talents and abilities and mental capabili-
ties of John 0. Fremont! The testi-
nmony of these leading Democrats will
have more weight with the people than
all the miserable growlingfif the puppy
orators of the Administration.

 

Democracy of I849.

The following resolutions were passed
by the Connecticut Legislature in 1849.
in the House by only two opposition
votes, though in that body there were
over 100 democratic members. It‘ will
be seen that these resolutions go the
entire length of the Republican plat-
form, and even beyond it. Then there
was no danger of dissolving the Uuioii
by speaking oue’s honest sentiments.-
Now, however, all the timid and infirm
politicians of the country are appealed
to by the party that. adopted these votes,
to lie down under the feet of their
Southern task masters, or else the Union
will be "busted" all up. But the hypo-
crites know better. They know that
there is no more danger of a di.-solution
of the Union now, than there was when
their party passed these resolutions.—
But they were not honest then. Neither
