WASHINGTON AND rBu uIfS4r.
To-day our country is the country of Washing
ton, with some large sccessions, indeed, which,
however reasonably and rightiully they may have
been opposed at the time, would hardly be spared
by any Of US now, but, at any rate, without dim-
mutton and without division Mount Vernon, where
he lived aud died, and where his yenerated ashes
still repose, la ours New York and Philadelphia,
where he presided over the infant Constitution
the capital which he laid out aud which bears his
name; Virginia which gave him birth Ohio which
he surveyed in his youth; South Carolina and Mas
sachusetts, which sfelt his own great arm lean
upon them for support" In his tried aud trium-
plant manhood; Cambridge, where he first drew
his sword at the head of the American armies !;
Yorktown, where the eagle Of victory finally perch
ed upon his banners Annapolis where he 80 nobly
and sublimely sheathed that sword and surrender
cd his commission; the Union which he blessed
by the labors Of his whole life, and by precepts
and an example which will live forever 1t is all
ours, and we can claim full share in its whole
inheritance of glory. do not say that all this,
any event which am willing to contemplate. /
am no panic maker, nor have ever set myself up
to be much of Union-saver. But this do say
that this continued suffiing and wrangIng between
sections--these perpetual contentious and con-
Hicts between the North and the South-are 80
shaking the foundations and jarring the super
structure and loosening the cement Of our great
republican fabric, that If nobody should ever
care to assail II directly ID may one day or other
become absolutely uptenantable, and be found
falling to pieces Of ITSELF hy its own weakness and
Its own weight And / do say also, that every
man who loves that Union, as others do, doubt
not, quite as sincerely and perhaps a great deal
more wisely than myself should look to it season
ably, that by no word, act, or vote of his, which
is not absolutely essential to the vndication of
rights and privileges which are never to be aban-
doned, ne hastens and precipitates catastrophe
which it may be too late to repent, and which no
time or wisdom may be able to repair, and when
a voice may he heard over our land, like that
which once sounded over Jerusalem of old, "If
thou had'st known, even in this thy day, the
things which belong TO thy peace but now they
are hid from thine eyes!" ss

Rumors of Disunion Intrigues i'm Maryland
-.-some Questions for Governor Ligon to
Answer.
It is currently rumored in this city that a GER
tain prominent Democrat is, or was recently, in
possession of a document signed by all, or by a
large proportion of the Southern Governors, EN-.
bodying an agreement to take the initial steps to-
wards separating the Southern States from the
Union in the event Off certain contingency. 10
is rumored, moreover, that among the names APP
pended to this document was that Of Governor
Ligon, of Maryland. We publish this statement
it comes to us, for the purpose OF giving Gov
ernor Lyon an opportunity of denying it explicit
ly, If false, or of ustfyng his act if true or If he
imagnes it possible to do so. A regard for his
own honor, and for that of the State he repre-
sents renders 1t incumbent upon him to denounce
the report AZ calumnious, if there is no foundation
for it; or to explain of what nature the document
was to which he appended the signature of his
name in connection with those of other Southern
Goyernors, and whether it has been attached to
any instrument of writing having political bear
ing upon the present canvass, or the issues that
might possibly grow out of it We, therefore,
respectfully ask Governor Lyon for frank re-
spouse to the following questions
lst. Are you cognizant of any agreement be-
tween certain Governors Of the Southern States,
having reference 70 separation of the States in
any contingency ~
I'D. Are you, or have you been, party to any
such agreement 0t M 81

FOR THE AMERICAN ORGAN.

Mr. EDITOR / trust it will not be out of place
for me to ask space in the columns of your ydt-
q,able paper, to make known to the world what
conceive to be one Of the greatest outrages have
ever known to be practised in this country, and
one, il not condemned blythe voters of the coun
try, must sooner or later be our ruin. The cir
cumstances are as follows On Friday last, while
at the Pension Office, transacting some business,
for several hours there appeared to be q consider
able stir among the employees. At first was at
a loss to know the cause thereof; soon, however,
learned that taco Individuals were canpdssing the
different rooms for the purpose of obtaining
money to aid in the election Of Mr.. Buchanan
the mode of accomplishing these ends was quite
AN Ingenious one. A list Of all the clerks was on
zone paper; another headed with an order to the
pay clerk to pay the amount opposite their names
out of their present months salary was handed to
the different clerks to sign. Thus, you see, not
giving them the benefit Of the excuse Of not hav-
ing the cash.
In this way learn, nearly elk hundred dollars
$4,000 were obtained from that bureau alone. The
same thing, am informed, was done in all the
different public Offices in the city, and this is the
second demand of the kind that has been made.
In this way, suppose, thousands Of dollars have
been taken directly fom the Treasury of the
United States. And for what purpose. In Gods
name, in the name of the Father of our Country,
in the name of those who fought for the liberties
we now enjoy, in the name OF all that is dear to
the true patriot, ask for what purpose Is this
money to be used. To bribe voters, TO corrupt
the ballot-boxy Heaven forbid.
], Mr.. Editor, 4 am no politician ! am no Office
seeker, but permit me in all candor to ask the
people of this country II they are ready to see q
party succeed that would resort to such means
to retain power. Were these means used In the
better days Of our republcf In conclusion, Mr.
Editor, continue to sound the alarm, and call on
the conservative people Of the country to awake,
TO arouse before IL Is too late and by their free
snffrages on the fourth Of November, drive from
power party that would resort to such corrupt
to carry their point, and rally to the support
Of the Union and Constitution by voting for Fill
NOR lie and Done]son. f IA 49, 4sss6i sft 6aA

FILLMORE IN VIRGINIA.-On Saturday evening
says the Richmond Whig an incident occurred at
Wymans soiree, in this city, which is worth re-
latng. Mr.. Wyman produced from his magical
portefolo likeness of the President, which he
exhibited to the audience. In the large concourse
present, there was not one who deemed the coun-
terfeit presentiment of Frank Pierce entitled to
greeting of applause. Old Bucks likeness was
next drawn forth, and again profound silence
reigned Then Mr. W. presented the noble fea-
lures of Willard Fillmore, and, instantly, the audi
ence arose with one accord and evinced their adj
mration Of the model statesman by vociferous
cheers and applause The assemblage was evil
IDENTIFY animated by cordial and enthusiastic rev.
erence for the Union, for, when Mr.. Wyman pro-
duced portrait of Washington, next in success
sion the walls of the building fairly tremLled with
the cheers and prolonged applause which ensued.

The Cincinnati Commercial says that w. 8.
Groesbeck, Democrat, elected to Congress in the
second Ohio district, pledged himself to vote to
make Kansas free State, by which be gained at
least 1000 votes.
The same remark will apply to Hon. John Hick-
man, recently reelected by the Democrats OF Penn
syysnia TO the next Congress, and several other
Democratic members from that State.
Even in New York, where, if anywhere, the
supporters of Buchanan might be expected to be
free from the antislayery faint, we find William
Chamberlain, the Democratic candidate for Con-
gress in the twelfth district Duchess and Colum
bia) expressing the same hostility to the extension
of slavery in his letter of acceptance. In that
letter he remarks:
'By reference to the proceedings Of the con-
vention which nominated me, l discover that allu-
sion was made to the subject of slavery, and |
gladly avail myself of this occasion to say that |
am now, and always have been, earnestly opposed

class these anti-slavery Democrats?"
