Touch or NATURE IN STRISGFELLow.-A
correspondent of the st. Louis Democrat, who is
giving personal sketches of the leading mem
oers OF the late mob Legislature of Kansas, re-
ates the following incident in relation to Striug-
! fellow
incidentally asked Gen. Strngfellow il he
had any children. / shall never forget the sud
den and almost terrible shadow in the express
sion of his face, that this question Produced
The conversation had begun about politics, and
had been carried on very freely up TO this point.
My careless question, however, suddenly chang
ed his expression. Never in my life did / see
broken heart so wildly pictured on human
face. His breast heaved; the tears started in
his eyes; he could hardly artieulate He an
swered by monosyllables, and single words at a
time. He told me that he had lost four young
children last spring within a few days Of each
other. AS he described the death Of his Young
son, at whose bedside he sat ten DAYS without
rest he was often forced TO stop, to suppress his
rising tears and sobs. To sec strong man so
moved, is the most terrible and affecting sight
beneath the sun. 1t affected me greatly-even
70 tears-not as saw il, for its intense express
sion of despair and grief paralyzed my own
feelings; but as ] recalled il when in the soil
tude of my chamber. THAT'S ciqt makes me
desperate so often" was the last remark he made
IN describing his domestic misfortunes As he
said 50, thought that if the leaders of political
parties knew each others sorrows, the hidden
causes of political hate and revolutions would
soon cease to be mystery.

The speech was listened to with marked
attention, and received the hearty endorse
ment of the assembled multitude.

marks, the THAYER family rogaled the crowd

Throughout the argument Of this part OF
his subject, the Governor retained the undi-
vided attention of the audience, and the truths
he uttered sank deep into the hearts of every
honest man who heard him.
On the Slavery question, the Governor
maintained the position occupied by the
Democratic Party, as the only true ground
for the people to occupy on this question
The question was one which belonged to the
people of the States and territories, and not
Congress. The doctrine of Popular Sover-
eighty was doctrine entirely in consonance
with the dogmas of Republicanism.
The Fusion party was an Abolition party
the principles which it avowed were sectional
and mischevious in the extreme. The Flu.
sionists had declared for the restoration Of
the Missouri Compromise. Yet they wei
knew they were dishonest in their profes
sions of friendship for this measure. Thu
Compromise would not be restored. Tht
House might pass a bill for its restoration
yet the Senate would not do so. They hat
passed the Nebraska bill bill embodyin:
the principles of Popular Sovereignty. |
was not probable that Senators would chang
their minds on this subject, aud take bacl

did they reconsider their action, was it prob
able that the President would sign the bill
Throughout the entire argument of thi
+ part of his subject, which was extended
some length, the Governor adduced tn
strongest proofs and used the most logici

0TAs was predicted long ago, the Fusion
party, the party without principles, held to-
gether by the hope of public plumber, is now,
in its desperation, counting the votes Of for
eigners. The Journal is trying to apologize,
lamely enough, for the vindictive, humanity
and un-American course pursued toward
strangers who had sought our shores in the
vain hope Of hearty welcome.
1t is willing that they should vote in five
years, a deduction Of sixteen from the asser-
tons of its orators of last year. But will it
permit them to hold office? Are not Roman
Catholic excluded by the principles of its
party from all positions of trust and emolu-
ments? Does not its co-laboTer and associate
in the common cause, its political fdus debates
the Republican, pour out a column or two
every day, against our Catholic citizens p
This part of the work IS, we admit, left in &
great degree to its clerical co-adjutor. Blu
everybody understands this TO be only as
division of labor, more efectually to promote
their Joint ends.

instead Of their being compelled, by their
ttrlloly Oatts, to dismantle themselves Of that
spirit of Independence that makes a genuine
American feel that he is indeed Freeman.
Democracy needs nc such oaths to bind its
votaries to their country's constitution, and to
the cause of Liberty. Its principles are them
selves the very essence Of Liberty. Liberty
had its birth from them; and when the Dem
ocrat bows down at his coun;ry's shrine he
feels that he is lneeling at his own altar
made doubly sacred from its baptism in the
blood Of the Democratic Fathers of the Rev
olution.
ORGANIZATION OF THE CONvEN-
TION.
AT IL o'clock the Convention was organ
lied by Gen. WV. ID. ALLEN, the President
of the County Club. He explained the OBJ
ject of the meeting to DO 10 consult as to the
great principles now agitatisg the public
Weekly Indiana State sentinel. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1853-1861, 1855-09-27

mind, and the bearing the questions upon
which the Democratic party stood separated
from the ism party were likely to have upon
the country.
He regretted to inform the crowd assem-
bled here, that Gen. LEWIS CAss, the distin-
guished Democrat and Statesman, would not
be present to address them, for reasons which
the following letter, received from him, would
explain:

THE SPEECHES.

liz 81 hI-OlED.
Hon. SAMUEL III. BUsKIRK was then intro
duced to the people by Gen. ALIEN, and
made one among the best speeches we have
heard during the campaign.
This, said Mr.. B., was the first time he
had ever enjoyed the pleasure of addressing
his Democratic fellow-citizens of Putnam
County, and he was highly gratifed at the
feeling Of enthusiasm displayed and mani
tested by the large crowd then assembled, in
the good cause of Democracy-the cause of
the Country and of Civil and Religious
Liberty
There were two great questions whose prin-
ciples were now agitating the public mind
the Slavery and Know Nothing questions.--
On the former, the present Fusion party
maintained the most decided Abolition
ground. At the Convention which adopted
the Platform of that party, the principle ora
tor was an Abolitonist of the deepest dye.
The Fusionists of Indiana had sent for him
to the Abolition State of Massachusetts to
preach his anti-Repubican and Union hating
doctrine to the People of Indiana--to instil
into their minds the insidious poison Of Abo-
litionism, and to array them, as sectional
party, against the South. And, who was this
Fusion spokesman? 1t was HENRY WILSON,
the Abolition U. s. Senator of Massachusetts,
Ia State which had resisted the enforcement
of the Fugitive Slave Law--which had passed
a law multiplying that compromise between
the North and the South--a State which had
ever lead off in the spreading of Abolition
principles and IN tho avovsl of Abolition -su-
timsnt

THE KNOW NoTH1NGs IN VIRGINIA.

The Know Nothings in Virginia are evidently
getting ready for fusion with the Straight-out
Wings OF the North. They held a State Con-
ventlon, with open doors, at Lynchburgh, on the
18th and 10th inst, and all persons, members
OF the party or friendly to it, were invited to
take seats, and participate in its proceedings.
The object was to open the door to Wings not
belonging to the Order.
The Convention then adopted the Phiadel-
phia platform, resolved that the eighth section
was not intended to exclude from public station
any citizen, on account of his religion, unless
ne acknowledged paramount obligation to a
foreign potentate that the twelfth section was
a true, national, and constitutional adjustment
OF the Slavery Question; that the nomination
of candidates for the Presidency and Vice
Presidency should be postponed till next June :;
that the ceremony of initiation into the Party,
and its rule of secrecy, should be abolished.
and all its meetings be open, like those of other
parties. In word, the Convention simply re-
solved itself into open Native American
Party, nine-tenths of the members being W>hgs.
What has been done in Virginia will be done
in other Southern States, and the Souther,a Ma
tive American Wing Party will naturally CO.
operate with the Straight-out Wings Of the
North who have always been tinctured with
Native Americanism.
