The National LuteIIigencer, after long hesita-
ton, took ground against the repeal of the Mis-
souri, Compromise, for which it received the
full need of praise as an independent journal.
1t is true that its opposition began too late to
effect anything-too late to turn back the tide
of Southern and Northern doughface opinion ;
but it is due to the editors of that journal to
say, that they made manly and vigorous fight
when they had made up their minds to oppose
the measure. But the bill being passed-the
robbery effected-they at once grounded arms,
and insisted on the duty Of acquiescence. They
would resist the highwayman, but the purse
once in his grasp, they became the champions
of his right to it, and cry treason" and " fac
ton against all who would insist upon his sur
rendering his plumber to the rightful owner
This conservative" and pacific policy is, of
course, highly pleasing to the great body of the
readers of the hateVigencer who reside in the
South but we are glad to see that it meets

WrsT ALEXANDER. Pa,

WEST ALEXANDER, Pa, Aug. 3, 1855.
The appointment of J. l.. Dawson, as Gov
eenor of Kansas, took US by surprise. We
knew the organ had said that members Oh
Congress would be rewarded or punished ac'
cording to their fidelity or infdelity to the
slave drivers, but we were not prepared to hear
of such prompt payment
Yesterday, saw gentleman from Browns
Vile, who says Dawson will go the whole figure
if be accepts. Another gentleman says he will
not be the tool of Atchison & Co. 4; that he IS
a Pennsylvania in feeling, and that the sacr'
fees he has already made to the women
whppers has brought him up standing little
straighter. He has committed suicide once
in voting for the Kansas and Nebraska BILL
and we may suppose he is not ambitious to
have the word infamy attached to his name
hereafter, and win act in some measure in ae
cordance with the sentiments of his native
State.
There is a report that there was correspond
ence had previous to Mr.. Dawson's appoint
ment, in which he pledged himself that, IN inc ne
execution of his office as Governor, he woulIt
use all his influence to secure the possession u
Kansas to Missouri. No one who knows ). ID
Dawson will believe this, until it is made manF
fest by his acts. Yours, &C.,

PENNSYLVANIA MOVING.

From every part of Pennsylvania we see
cheering signs of vitality in the cause of Free
dom, and disposition to merge all the elements
of opposition to the aggressions of Slavery into
one invincible Republican party.
The Pittsburgh Gazette, of August Sth, con-
tains call for State Convention at that place,
signed by leading Republicans in all parts of
the State. But, even prior to this formal call,
we perceive that the people in various quarters
are holding County Conventions, for the pur-
pose of sending delegates to a general Conven-
ton. Their proceedings, in general, evince the
true spirit of devotion to Liberty, and show a
disposition to lay aside all minor questions
which are calculated to produce discord in the
ranks. We regret that the limits of weekly
newspaper will not allow of the republication of
the proceedings of these County Conventions.
There is no State in the Union which has
greater reason to oppose the aggressions of
Slavery than Pennsylvania. The insult to one
of her citizens, Governor Reeder, the attempt
to introduce Slavery into the State through the
agency of Ambassador Wheeler and Judge
Kane, and the Imprisonment of one of the best
men in the -Williamson-for presuminp
to tell Mr.. Wheeler's slaves that they were no
longer slaves, should arouse every Pennsylva-
MAN to sense Of the danger of Federal en-
croachment upon the rights of the State and of
the individual.
Among the numerous local Conventions, we
perceive that one, representing ten counties, as
sembled at Reading, on the 9Th inst. 1t was
characterized by great enthusiasm, and put
forth series of resolutions, marked by devo.
ton to Freedom, and calling on the people of
the State to assemble in Mass Convention. at
Pittsburgh, on the 9Th of September. The work
goes bravely on in the Old Keystone. We
cherish the hope that the State will declare for
Freedom by an overwhelming vote. But the
friends of the cause must work. Thew must
crush out and throw aside all minor differences
and agree to disagree on every question which
is calculated to produce discord. q.

Mr.. Buchanan resigns his post as Minister to
England, and returns to the United States in

He is growing old and in6rm, and will find the

creditable to the papers of Baltimore, that they
do not lay aside childish fear of the charge Of
"abolitiop," and tell their people the plain
truths We have here brought to light-which
in fact lie upon the surface, and which their
own intelligence needed not our aid in discov
ering. It is about time for the enterprising
San and Clipper to throw aside. the antigua
ted conservatism, which breads nothing SC
much as nth. We believe that the conduct
ors of Il use journals cordially despise such
maxims prudence, and we feel that, in the
present tie of public opinion in Maryland
they will azard nothing in acting in open dis
regard o lem.
Can they doubt that Baltimore is less than
half the ssVe of Philadelphia, simply because
Maryland owns few thousand slaves? Do
they not3 know that the increase in wealth Of
Baltimore alone, in ten years after Emancipa-
ton, would pay for every slave in the State
Then why do they not speak out? Both those
journals have time, and again intimated their
disapprobation of Slavery and they would lose
nothing by wisely and judiciously discussing
the subject.
Baltimore has far superior advantages fol
foreign and domestic commerce to Philadel
phia. 1t is surrounded by every facility for man
ufacturing which Philadelphia possesses and
nothing but the barbarous and clumsy institu.
ton OF Slavery spoils it of its destiny. 1t is
impossible for the city to possess healthy vi.
tality, while labor is degraded by whips and
chains, and while the best parts of the sur
rounding country are titled by the indolent, ig
norant and unrequited African slave. G.

HorlicuI,uroI Exhihi,,on.

The horticultural Exhibition, now open at
Horticultural Hall, is the largeat and most COM
plete, as whole, of any ever held by the socie-
ty. In apples, it probably does not come up, in
the number exhibited, to the very extraordinary
show Of last year, and in peaches, it falls below
that of some former seasons, but these slight de-
fciences arc more than compensated by the ex.
tent and excellence Of the other departments
The pears far excel those Of any former year,
shere being about one thousand dishes on the ta-
bles, the average quality Of which, both as re-.
speets the varieties and the perfection Of the
specimens, is quito above that Of any former
year The vegetables, too, are very much above
those Of any preceding exhibition, as are the
grapes and the flowers We have no room, this

WEIGH LENT's CIRcUs.-Welch & Lent's
combined circus companies will enter this city
this morning. and will make grand parade
through our principal streets for the purpose of
giving the public an opportunity for judging as
to the extent of the establishment. Perform
anees will be given both afternoon and evening.
and the day exhibition will be found peculiarly
attractive for ladies and family parties The en- =.
tertainments of this establishment have acquired
high reputation, not only for their brilliant and
attractive character, but also from the taste and
discrimination shown in excluding all features of
an Objectionable nature from the performances
The three clowns and the magic pantomime of
the "Miser Of Bayclod" will commend them
selves to the lovers of hearty fun.

and the English the Redan. Six repulses
were sustained by the French before the NAL
akoff, but on the seventh attempt they carried
the work i'll fine style, and hoisted their ca
giles on the Malakof. The slaughter was ter
rible, andis estimated at 1000 English, Is 900
French, and many Russians, making the az.
gregate upwards of 1000 men. Five French
generals are reported to have been killed, i'll

During the night succeeding the assault, the
Russians evacuated the entire south side, -
first blowing up the defences, sinking all the
ships, firing the town, and leaving nothing
but smouldering ruins.
A large allied force was marching along the
coast to interrupt the retreat of the Russians
inland.
The allies found immense materials of war
in Seyastopol.
1t is reported that instructions have been
sent to the allied Generals, in the event of
Gortschakoti seeking to capitulate, TO demand
that Russia shall surrender at discI elton all
the troops, stores, and fortified places, includ

Another unsuccessful attempt had been
made ON the life Of Louis Napoleon.

DEDICATION OF THE ZION CHURCH.--The new
editce of the Zion NJ E. Church was dedicated
on Tuesday afternoon The sermon was by Rev
DR.. Raymond, President of the Wibraham Sem
mary. The preacher took as his text lst Peter,
]. IL, and after an introduction, indicating the
claim of Christianity to study and reflection, he
deduced as his subject "the salvation affected in
behalf of man by Jesus Christ - which was con-
sidered under four divisions: its antecedenr ne
cessity; its character and the method of accom-
plishment; its present agencies; and its future
result. The discourse was powerfully and clear
ly conceived, and eloquently delivered and was
an able statement of the religious views of the
denomination of which DR.. Raymond is an emf
nent and honored member and minister. But
we confess that in view of the character of the
occasion and of the audience, and in view of the
harmony with which all denominations have co.
operated in aiding to erect this church, and to
advance the interests of the congregation wor-
shipping In it, it seems to us that discourse
more devotional and less polemical, tending to
impress practical duties more, and speculative
theories less, and giving more prominence to the
great Catholic cardinal truths in which all Chris
tlans agree, and less to the minor questions on
which they are divided, would have been more ap-
propriate and more useful
Rev. Drs. Sweetser and Hill, Rev. Messrs
Mars, Warren, Bushnell, and Wayland, also took
pert in the exercises The house is very com
modious and tasteful, and is capable of seating
some three hundred persons. 1t is also furnished
with an excellent and melodlous Instrument
The singing was admirably performed, and con-
stltuted most interesting part of the services
very great praise is due to Rev. J. N Marrs the
pastor, for the ndefatigable ZEAL and for the sue
cess with which he has labored for the benefit of
TINS church. We wish to him and them long
and prosperous occupancy of their new edifee.
