The Good Work Progressing.

Every mail brings us encouraging tidings
from abroad. In all portions of the Union
the hardy toiler on whose muscular arm de-
ponds the support Of those who are dearer to
him than life ITSELF is taking decided stand
in favor Of the protection of his interests The
working men of this county, feel keenly the
two-fold insult offered them, in the ten cent
estimate put upon their labor by MI. Buchanan
and ere the ides of November have transplr-
ed. his rebuke, scathing but well merited, will
have come up from the four corners of the ma
ton. Mr. Buchanan is already, In the South
the weakest Of the three candidates and in the
North his prospects are certainly not very fiat
tering. 1t is evident the contest will be be-
tween Fillmore and Fremont. The only eff
fectof Buchanan running will be probably to
throw the election into the House, where he is
sure Of an ignominious defeat.
Mr.. Fillmore is daily gaining ground all
over the Union. His conservatism is what
the people want. His progress through the
country is a continued triumph, and popular
enthusiasm continues undated as he advances.
The Empire State is his beyond doubt, and
notwithstanding the hue and cry raised by our
opponents, that Mr.. Fillmore's prospects are
declining, the American party is receiving
new accessions to its ranks every day. The
fact is, Mr.. Fillmore is stronger to-day than
he was two months ago, and if his strength
continues to increase in a corresponding ratio
his triumph is certain. Even were the cleo
ton to come off immediately, we think there
can be no doubt as to his victory. The whole
number of votes in the electoral college is
2S6; of these the North gives 176, and the
South 120. AS we have before said, Mr.. Bu-
chanan is the weakest of the three candidates
in the South In Kentucky, Missouri, Ten
nessee, Delaware, Maryland and other South
ern States the Sag NIGHTS have confessed
themselves Overwhelmingly defeated. conse-
quently their candidate cannot possibly draw
his hope from that quarter. The State cleo
tons last year, showed the Democratic party
to be largely in the minority in the North, ex-
cept in Illinois, Indiana and New jersey, and
we are confident that Indiana win bury her in
terest in the champion of Southern fire eaters,
in the tomb of the Capplets Though should
Buchanan get the entire vote of the South,
which is by no means ewes probable, he still
would want. 20 votes from the North to elect
him. These he cannot get, and Mr.. Buchanan
mayas wen hang his harp on the willows at
once, for to expect 70 carry the election, is to
hope against hope & sas ~ s,5z5s6 a2 =

LATER FROM KANSAS.

as7s sssslfsd ST.. Louis, July g..
| James S. Hackney, Quarter Master General
at Jefferson City, has sent letter to the edi-
tor of the Jefferson Examiner, dated the list
instant denying the charge made by a3corres-
pondent Of the Missouri Democrat, that Gov
ernor Price had sent twelve cannon aad TWEEN
ty7two boxes of muskets to Atchison and
StringGellow, for the conquest of Kansas. The
letter says that no arms have been given out
except TO regularly organized companies, and
not then till every requirement of the Platte
militia had been complied with. Not a single
gun or musket has ever been sent to Atchison
| Or Stfingfellow, but on the contrary, when,ap-
pealed to for arms by persons not entitled to
them, Gov. Price has invariably refused. ST.
Louis county has received more arms than all
the 5..lance of the State.
Adviees from Topeka to the 4th are receiv-
ed. The Convention met there on the I'd, and
passed resolutions in favor of the Republican,
party, and denunciatory OF the Democracy
and appealing to the friends of Free Kansas
in Congress to stop supplies until Kansas is
admitted under the present constitution.
| Marshal, Donaldson and Judge Gilmore read
to the Convention the Presidents February
Proclamation, Shannon's Proclamation and a
new one from WoodSon, the Secretary of the
| Territory, also note from Sumner stating
that he would prevent the meeting OF the
Legislature, but he was not needed. About
500 people were present, all armed. 81
Both branches of the Legislature met on
the 4th--quorum present The roll was call
ed about noon. Sumner entered town with
100 dragons, and planted two pieces of artil-
lery at the head of Kansas avenue The
troops were drawn up before Constitutional
Hall, and Sumner told the citizens he would
not disarm them or break up the Convention,
but he had orders to dissolve the Legislature
and would do so. Sumner then entered the
Hall of Representatives, and in gentIemanly
manner informed the members that he had
orders to disperse them and he should enforce
it. 8a af saa
He said--I am called upon to perform the
most painful duty of my life. Under the au-
thurity Of the President am here to dissolve
this Legislature, and. in accordance with my
orders, command you to disierse. God knows

SENArE--Behjamin' resolutions were
adopted, directing the Secretary of the Senate
to take the three bills passed over the Presi-
dents veto, to the Secretary of State, in order
that they may be deposited in that department.
Mr.. Benjamin remarked, with reference to the
other day, whether two thirds of the mem
bers of the Senate were required to pass bill
over the Presidents veto, that he had exam
ined the presidents and found that at the first
session at the first Congress, composed in great
part of those who were members of the Con
vention which formed the Constitution, eleven
amendments to the Constitution passed both
Houses of Congress and in both were adopted
by vote Of two thirds Of the members pre-
sent and not two thirds of the whole body.
MesSrs. Mason and Toucey expressed an
opinion, after more deliberate reflection, that
the decision of the chair was correct.
Tombs said that precedents were not worth
much When they were in persons favor
they were debated on, but when they were
contrary to his opinions they were contrary to
his opinions they were disregarded.

The House then dispersed.

the middle of Main street, opposite the Wash

early, while the driver, little German boy,
was urging him along homeward from market,
with bright anticipations of breakfast. The
boy took on amazin', and crowd of sympa-
thizing friends soon gathered around the pros
trate brute, all at one time talking the best
German they were masters Of. Above all was
heard the shrill lamentation of the boy. In
vain they coaxed, plead with, and threatened

For the Journal.

Mr.. SANDERS:
Allow me through the medium of your
valuable paper, to say to my friends, who may
desire to present my name to the Peoples
May Convention as a candidate for Congress,
that the nomination would not accord either
with my interest or my feelings, and | would
not wish my name brought before the Con-
vention.
Since the defeat of Mr.. Claya1or the Presi-
dency in 1874, by Mr.. Polk, ] have taken no
active interest in politics; contenting myself
with the simple privilege of always going to
the polls and voting for those l considered
best qualified for office, and this was all ever
intended to do in politics.
The repeal of the missouri Compromise, y
and the action of the dominant party in regard
to Kansas the brute force' used not only in
Kansas, but in the Senate Chamber, calls
loudly on every lover of freedom-of order
and Of his country, to come up to his duty
and record his vote, so that agitators, ruffians,
and assassins may stand rebuked and our
country stand redeemed from the power that
holds its fair fame so lightly.
If Hive will be at the Convention to aid
in selecting candidate to bear aloft the STAN
dard Of our country's freedom in this cam
paign, and will by my vote aid in rescuing the
"frst district" from the rule of those that have
prostituted the power of place, to extend the
blight of slavery into a country devoted to
freedom by solemn compromise and covenant.

How we stand Abroad.

The French circles are canyasSing our, Sena-
torial row, between Brooks and Sumner, with
pretty much the same feeling in which We
would speak Of Hindoo suffice. Our pugelis-
tic craftsmanship has created quite sensa-

with a kind OF polite horror. Yet it has got
tobe looked upon as matter of course, de-
tracing, however, none in the least from its
disgrace in their eyes; and for a whole session
TO pass without the recurrence Of q regular
Congressional set to, is as unexpected as the
non Appearance Of the Presidents message at
its proper time A beautiful reputation in
deed these Locofoco bulEes are weaving for us
abroad. 1t is q notorious fact that all the das-
tardly attacks, all the riotious disturbances,
which have ever yet occurred in the Halls OF
Congress, have been made by the Locofoco
Tom Hyerdom Of Congress. A few years ago
the Senate had its Foote, whose blood boiled
at the appearance. Of Mr. Benton in the cham

of the lower House bears the palm of rowdy-
ism, without the magnanimity of his former
composer Atcheson and Stringfellow are but
leading spirits of the same kidney. We are
fas becoming by word and a reproach among
nations. for which as for many other like fayors
we have the immaculate Democracy to thank.
