SATURDAY, :::::: JULY 5, 1856.
DEMOCRATIC NOMINATIONS.
For President,
JAMES BUCHANAN,
OF PENNSYLVANIA.
For Vice-President,
JOII.Y C. HRECKIY'RIDCrE
OF KENTUCKY.
Xij~ To give our employees a chance j
to observe the 4th of July, we send out
our paper one day in advance. It is the
duty of every patriotic American to ab
stain from seeular employment on this I
day, and engage in cxcroiscs worthy of
the events which it commemorates. As
there is to he no public celebration, wo
intend to spend the day in reflection upon
the blessings which have been vouch
safed to us as a people, and in imploring the
God of nations so to order the affairs of
our country, that these blessings may be
contiuued and enlarged to the end of time.
Actions Speak Louder tuan Words.
—Mr. Fillmore has just made a speech
at Albany, N. Y., which his southern
friends will doubtless repeat as an evi
dence of the patriotic devotion to country
of their candidate for the Presidency ■
It is true that he is eloquent in astonish
ment at the sectionalism of the Black
Republicans in presenting their ticket,
and speaks warmly of the dangers to bo \
apprehended from the success of that
ticket. If Mr. Fillmore has uttered his j
true sentiments in this speech, his admi-!
rers in the South have as much reason
for astonishment at his continuing to be a
candidate for the Presidency, as he has
expressed at the action of the Republican
convention. If be feels such horror at
the idea of Fremont’s election, they will
wonder why he docs not, by retiring
from the field, place Fremont’s defeat be
yond a peradventure, and take to himself
the credit of helping to save the country
from the disaster he so much deprecates.
No Fillmore man in his senses will deny
that, as matters now stand, every vote
cast for him will contribute to Fremont’s
chance of success, and that the only prac
tical way for Fillmore to “make a clean
breast of it,” is to co-operate with the
host of national Whigs who are now man
fully fighting in the ranks of the only
party that can effectually restrain the
Republicans from breaking asunder tho
bonds of our Union, and spreading anar
chy and civil war through the the land.
After such an apparently patriotic out
burst from Mr. Fillmore, if he does not
immediately thank his friend* for the
honor conferred on him by a nomination,
uud then withdraw, he will have no right
to complain of uncharitablencss should
any of his old friends take it into their
heads that his actions arc not quite as
patriotic as his words, especially when it
is remembered that the Black Republi
cans rely, to a great extent, for the suc
cess of their cause upon the very party
at the North, of which Mr. F. is a mem
ber, and that the only hope he can pos
sibly have for anything like a respecta
ble vote,is by dividing tho South between
Mr. Buchanan and himself; defeating an
election by the people, and devolving
that duty upon the House of Representa
tives, who would discharge it in the same
spirit that resulted iu the choice of
Banks as Speaker.
For ourselves, we hesitate not to de
clare tiiat we discern in this speech
'buncombe,' and nothing hut ‘buncombe.’
Mr. Fillmore, since his return from his
European tour, has learned the circum
stances under which he was nominated;
lias heard of the scccßsionists and their
proceedings; and has witnessed such
ominous defections from Americanism to
Republicanism, as not to leave anortherr.
spot left upon which he can plant his
standard ; and ho now (urns his eyes with
holy horror, and extends both hands in
supplication to the South to save him,
and through him the country, from the
consequences of his rashness, by com
mitting an act of rashness herself that
would betray her own folly, and probably
terminate iu a calamity that would dig
the grave of all she most dearly cherishes.
X-&~ An effort was made in Congress,
a few days since, to force the“ Topeka,”
a free State Constitution of Kansas,
through that body ; hut it fortunately
failed In looking over the vote, we were
not much surprised to find that H. Win
ter Davis, the leading spirit of Mary
land Koow-nothingism, hail dodged the
question. His friends no doubt will feel
themselves called upon to vindicate his
course upon this subject,as they did upon
his indirect support of Banks for Speak
er. They then renewed their confidence
in him as an exponent of their political
creed, and we may now expect them to
extol him ns a true defender of the faith.
Democratic Victory. —J. W. Wcb
atcr, Democrat, has been elected Mayor
of Waterbury, Connecticut. The State
is giving every sign she can give of her
intention to veto for Buchanan and Brook -
in ridge.
Meeting at Colesville. —As we pre-1
dieted, the meeting at Colesville, on Sat- j
Urday last, was well attended and highly
enthusiastic. Speeches were made by ■
Mr. Crawford, of Washington City,
Messrs. Bouic and Anderson, of Rock
ville, and Fawcett, of Berry’s. We
were not of the audience, hut have been
assured that the speakers performed their
parts with honor to themselves and with
service to the cause. Three gentlemen,
who were with our opponents last fall,
publicly renounced Know-nothingisin,
and announced their determination to
support “Buck and Brack” next No
vember. In another column will be
found a card from one of those gentle
men. Urge on the good cause, freemen
of Montgomery; you have buckled on
your armor for the fight; keep it bright
and glittering, and our word for it before
the battle of next fall is fought, you will
be cheered by recruits from tho enemy’s
ranks, and when it is over, you will re
turn from tho field with glorious trophies.
it-S" By reference to an article in an
other column it will be seen that, among
the appointments made by the C'anal
Board at its late meeting, is that of Jas.
P. Wade, of our county, as superintend
ent of the Georgetown line of that work.
Although the competition for this post
was quite animated, there can be no doubt
thaf*the result will give general satisfac
tion to all acquainted with tho appointee,
and especially to the Democracy, who
know his qualifications for the duties of
the station, his unswerving adherence to
the principles of his party, and his inde
fatigable and effective exertions in the
cause which lie has ever had at heart.—
We speak advisedly and sincerely when
we say that this appointment is an inade
quate tribute to tho services of tho in
cumbent, and but a slight reward for his
perseverance in the path of duty. As
an officer, all connected with him in
business will find that ho fully under
stands his calling; as a man, all will
appreciate his urbane and accommoda
ting disposition.
XitT On Tuesday last, Ist instant, the
new Mail contractors entered upon their
routes. Mr. Benjamin Cooley, from
Rockvillo to Barnesville, and Mr. F.
Leonard, from Washington to Frederick
City. We cordially welcome once more
amongst us our old friend and fellow
townsman, Leonard, with his distinguish
ed public spirit; especially as he has put
upon the course such handsome and com
fortable coaches and prime stock as to
insure to passengers conveyance at a jol
ly and very pleasant rate. We wisli him
abundant success, for he well merits it.
Wheat Harvest is now at its height
and the weather highly favorable thereto,
except that the heat lias been very in
tense upon those engaged therein. We
arc delighted to hear that the heads arc
generally large and well filled, as it en
| courages poor printers to hope for a cake
of “sildom”on next Thanksgiving Day.
XJT The “Patent Steel-Tooth Horse
Rake,” advertised by Jesse T. Hig
j gins & Brother, Poolesvillc, in this
j county, may be seen at J. 11. Higgins’
j store in this town. We have examined
i it, and although making no pretensions
lo judgment in such matters, we have
no reason to doubt that it will answer
well tho purpose for which it is designed.
X3f~ Wo learn that the Rev. Mr.
Russell, of this place, delivered the
oration at the Odd Fellows’ celebration,
yesterday, (4th of July,) at Laurel.
X-ti~Thc Post Office at Triadelphia,
in this comity, has been discontinued.
Unity, about one mile and a half distant,
I is the nearest office.
Massachusetts Politic*.—The Mas
i sachusetts Know-nothing State Conven
tion ratified, on the Ist instant, the nom
ination of Fremont by a vote of 280 to
197 for Fillmore. The Fillmore men
bolted, and held a separate convention
j the same evening.
X-ii" A memorial, numerously signed,
j was on the 27th ult., sent to the Senate
' of tho United States, asking a retroces
sion of Georgetown, I). C., to Mary
land.
Wanted. —Tho New York Herald ad
vertises for a good, graphic, compact and
complete history of tho birth, growth,
expansion, decline, collapse, death and
burial of the late great Know-nothing
party, for the use of all the political
block-heads of the day during the Pre
sidential contest.
Fremont and Gerard. —The Buffalo
Commercial says that “when Fremont is
elected President of the United Slates,
1 the people of France will probably call J
j Gerard, the lion kilter, to the imperial
1 throne. The characters of these distin- !
guished men arc similar, hut Gerard is
the greater hero.”
Jf-et* The Sentinel, an old Whig paper
of Henry county, Tenn., the editor of!
which says ho was a Clay Whig for 1
twenty years, has come out for the Dcm- j
ocratio nominees.
Congress has been in session thirty-one
| weeks, and ha 3 done little or nothing.
Mr. Dallas not to be Dismissed.—
Quebec , June 30.—The Canadian serew
steamship North America, from Liver
pool on the 18th instant, arrived at this
port this evening, with four days later
intelligence from Europe.
The news from England is of a high
ly important character. Mr. Dallas is
not to be dismissed, and tho difficulties
between the United States and Great
Britain will probably ho amicably settled.
Lord Clarendon stated, in reply to Lord
Derby, in the House of Lords, that it is
not the intention of the Government to
advise the Queen to suspend diplomatic
relations with America. The announce
ment was loudly cheered.
Lord Derby expressed his satisfaction
with regard to tho announcement made
by the Government, but regarded tho
Government’s course as humiliating and
as an acknowledgement of error.
Lord Clarendon appealed to the House
not to join Lord Derby iu pressing tho
question ; and the subject then dropped.
XdT A correspondent of the Baltimore
Sun, writing from New Market, Frede
rick county, Md., says:
“The grain harvest in this neighbor
hood will be generally commenced this
week. Although many fields have suf
fered much from tho ravages of the fly,
!it is thought the general yield will be an
| average crop. The corn so far presents
no very flattering prospect. Most of the
I farmers were obliged to replant as many
as three times.
Iu a ride to Brookville, Montgomery
county, last Hat urday, I found that tin
wheat crop of that county will compare
favorably with our own county product
this year. The corn is certainly much
better than is found in this community.
Fremont in California. —There are
(remarks a cotemporary) hut two politi
cal parties in California—the Democratic
j and the Know-nothing. Tho Dcmo
[ cratic party is cordially united upon Bu
chanan and Breckinridge. The Know
nothing State Council has ■'declared for
Fillmore and Donelson with great unan
imity, and will support that ticket.—
Free-soilism has no strcugtli there. So
Mr. Fremont has no party in the State
he professes to call his home.
Up with the Flag.—The Hollander
newspaper, published at Holland, Otta
wa county, the organ of the very nume
rous Holland colony in and about that
place, raises the Democratic flag, and
says:
“To-day the head of our columns is
graced with the names of the Democratic
nominees for the presidency and vice
presidency of the United States—men
whom it is our pleasure to support in the
coming campaign, because we believe
them to he men in whom the country can
put implicit confidence.
“ James Buchanan is emphatically the
man of the people, lie is tho point to
which now centre all tho conservative
tendencies and influences of the country!”
A Response from Texas.—The ac
tion of the Democratic National Conven
tion is cordially and enthusiastically en
dorsed by the Democracy of Texas.—
The Galveston News remarks:
“ Tiie ticket is the strongest one the
party could have made, and, in connex
ion with the platform, will unite the full
and entire strength of the Democracy.”
The Civilian says:
“ The Democratic nominations for
President and Vice President, have our
entire and hearty approbation. Better
selections could not have been made.—
Their success wo regard as beyond the
shadow of doubt. They will unite the
entire Democracy.”
XJX~ “ Should I he placed in tho ex
ecutive chair, I shall use mv best exer
tions to cultivate peace and friendship
with ajl nations, believing this to ho our
highest policy, as well as our most im
perative duty.”— James Jiuchantm.
In connexion with the above, wo give
i tho following from tho New York Com
mercial Advertiser, a leading opposition
paper:
“ Mr. Buchanan has constructed his
own platform on which to base the for
eign policy of his administration, in tho
event of his election, and it is*a sound
one.”
Xif~ As some slight evidence of what
may he expected from tho Democracy of
Tennescc in November next, wo make
room for the subjoined telegraphic des
patch :
Memphis, June 27.—Thomas Carroll
(deni.) elected mayor of Memphis by a
majority of 391.
Iff?'These Black Republican politi
cians are certainly improving. Then- is
hope in their case. They are not past
praying for. They go against slavery
and polygamy. In process of time they
tnay take ground against sins positively
prohibited in tho decalogue. Who
knows hut they may yet come up to the
scratch of putting a plank in their plat
form against striding, especially as they
have already pocketed about ail the pub
lic plunder they are likely to be able to
reach for some years. Many a sinner|
becomes very penitcntafWliehaniott the
power of enjoying the wages of iniquity J
[Albany Argus.
Murder.— Win. P. Stephens, a Jus
tice of the Peace at Hyde J’ark, Pa.,’
was shot dead, on the 28th ult., whilst
riding in his carriage, near that place.—
Sir. W. Jones, a friend who was with
hitn, was so frightened that he did not
stop to look for the murderer. Persons
who recently had a difficulty with hint
are suspected. Tho deceased leaves a
family.
XtT Tho Philadelphia correspondent
of tho Baltimore “ Sun,” under date of
July Ist, writes :
“ There was quite a scene in the Rev.
Dr. Tyng’s church on Sunday in oonsc- "
quence of that gentleman preaching an
anti-slavery discourse. He denounced
tho outrages in Kansas, the alleged ag
gressions of tho slave power and con
'cludcd by urging his congregation to ex
ercise their rights as freemen at the bal
lot-box in staying tho progress of the
evil. The sermon was listened to with
out interruption until the speaker spoke
of slavo breeding, rearing immortal
souls (who were made for heaven) fori
bondage, when Dr. Casper Morris, for
merly a church warden, rose from his !
pew, and as ono of the original church !
wardens, entered his solemn protest
against the desecration of the place and
the day bv such services. Several other
members left the church soon after the
Rev. Dr. Tyng commenced his sermon.
The Episcopal Church has always here
tofore discountenanced the introduction
of such topics in the pulpit, and the de
parture from the custom on this occasion
will ho a matter which will he laid be
fore tho Bishop.”
The Keating Subscription.—A sub
scription for the relief of the widow and
children of the late Thomas Keating, of
Washington, was put iu circulation soon
after the death of Keating, and the
amount subscribed and paid is six hun
dred and thirty-two dollars. The money j
collected has been disposed of as follows:
For the purchase of a two story house, j
near the corner of E. and Twentieth :
streets, which has been conveyed to the
widow and two children as joint tenants,
$690; paid for recording the deed SI .25; :
paid to Mrs. Keating, $30.75." The j
j foregoing amount was contributed by
! seventy-five individuals in sums from S i
to ('.jO.— hit, Hi gen err.
Hoe's Press in London. -The fol- 1
lowing is from the London weekly news
paper, edited by Douglas Jcrrold :
“Next week, we trust, these pages
, will be printed on an engine planned by
American brain, forged by American
arms, and set up here on English soil by
i American hands—most noble specimens
, withal of our American brethren on the
| other side of the wave. Now, what need
iwe care for the rod tape when wo may
| hind both sides of the Atlantic together
with the tapes of the steam press ?”
The Old-line Whigs. —Hon. W. C.
Preston, of Kentucky, formerly an old
lino Whig, stated ntCinciunati that ;hcrc
were still two hundred thousand old-line
Whigs, most of whom would vote for
Mr. Buchanan.
Colonel Sims, of Kentucky, another
old-line whig, stated that ho and hun
dreds of other old-lino whig* would vote
j tho Democratic ticket this year.
Chicago, June 30.—A Methodist j
j Conference which assembled at Roches-
I ter, Andrew county, Missouri, on the
j 14th instant, received orders from a!
number of pro-slavery men to adjourn \
immediately and leave tho State. Not !
complying with the order, a mob assem- j
hied, entered tho church, and took the j
presiding officer and tarred and feathered I
him. An old man who attempted to
prevent the outrage was shot.
