in the business. There are now one
hundred and thirty-two large ships and

New Jersey state Council.

A telegrsphic despatch, purporting to give
the proceedings of the American State Coun-
Gil of New Jersey, was published recently in
the Baltimore and New York papers. The
New Ark Eagle pronounces it false, and at
tributes its authorship to the notorious 10.
Scoville, of the Albany Register, the solitary
organ of George Law.
The Eagle remarks:
We do not wish to be personal, but justice to
the State Council, of which we are member
obliges US to say that we have seldom seen
more falsehoods crowded into a small space, as
are contained in the despatch in question.
The despatch says there was ''great deal of
angry discussion in reference to the Philadel-
phia Convention" This is falsehOod No. l.
There was only one member present who show
ed the least sign of anger. But very few, not
more than six or eight, took part in the discus
sion, and with the exception noticed, sanger
was a stranger to their lips"
The despatch says the remark of one of the
delegates, that the nomination of Mr. Fillmore
was effected by Southern and spurious votes
was corroborated by the President of the Phil
adelphia Convention, Judge Marsh. This is
falsehood No. 2. We heard Judge Marsh's re-
marks, and they cannot be tortured into any
such meaning. Judge Marsh has always been
friendly to Mr.. Fillmore, voted for him in the
Convention, and is this day decided support
er of the Philadelphia nominations.
The despatch says that several delegates
gave their opinion that if the nomination OF
Mr.. Fillmore was ratified by the State Coun-
Gil, it would lose New Jersey to the American
party" This is falsehood No. g. Only one
member made remark susceptible of this in
depreciation, and even that was qualified by
being based upon the absurd idea that Mr. Fill
more might not consent to stand upon the
American platform, as his letter of acceptance
has not been received.
The despatch says, in reference to approving
or endorsing the action of the Delegates to
the Philadelphia Convention, 'that the whole
subject was laid on the table" This is false
hood No. A. The motion endorsing the action
referred to was carried as stated yesterday, by
very large majority, and was, in effect, a
I for.nal ratification Of the nominations of Fill
more aud Donelson.

Daniel webster on Amcricanism.

In November, 1874, after the defeat of Mr.. Clay
for the Presidency, Daniel Webster made speech
in Faneuil Hall, Boston, 10 which the necessity for
the American organization of the present day was
distinctly asserted. Said Mr. Webster:
"The results OF the recent election defeat of
Mr.. Clay) 10 several of the States have impressed
my mind with one deep convction-that is, that
there rs an imperative necessity for reforming the
naturalization laws Of the United States. The pre-
servation Of the government, aud consequently the
interests of all parties, in my opinion, clearly and
strongly demand this All are willing and DESTROYS
of course that America should continue to be the
safe asylum of the oppressed Of all naIions All
willing and DESTROYS that the blessings Of a free
government should be open to the enjoyment Of
the worthy and industrious from all countries, who
may come hither for the purpose of bettering their
circumstances by the successful employment OF
their own capital, enterprise or labor. But il is
not reasonable that the elective franchise should
be exercised by person of foreign BIRTH until at.
ter such residence among as that he may be
supposed 70 have become, in soRe measure ac-
quainted with our constitution and laws, our social
and our general interests Of the country, and TO
have become an American In feeling principle, cha
racter and sympathy, as well as having established
his domcil among us. Those already naturaliZed
have, Of course, their rights secured, but l can
conceive Of no reasonable objection TO different
provision in regard to future cases"

Attempted Escape of Gov. Robinson
from Kansas-His arrest by the Citl-
gems of Lexins ton.

Attempted Escape of Gov. Robinson
from Kansas-His arrest by the Citi-
zens of Lexington.
We learn from the officers of the Star Of
The West, Just down from the Missouri river,
that an interesting event occurred on their
boat at Lexington, being nothing less than the
informal arrest 10y the citizens of that city of
Gov. Charles Robinson, of Kansas, for treason.
The facts are these
Robinson took passage on the Star Of the
West at Kansas City, Friday, without register
ing his name or destination, or intimating
whittier he was bound. He was disguised in
a suit of grey jeans, and slouched hat, which
hung over his face and concealed his features.
His wife was with him. He immured himself
closely in bis state room, and held no conmu-
ncation with any one aboard the boat. On
the arrival Of the steamer at Lexington,
small company of citizens, among whom were
Gen. William Shields and Samuel l.. Sawyer,
ESQ., having heard that Robinson was fleeing
from Kansas TO avoid arrest for treason, and
having learned also that he was seereted on
the Star Of the Vest, went aboard of her,
communicated their suspicious to The officers,
and requested permission to search the boat.
Consent was given, and Robinson was found.
He was taken ashore quietly by the citizens,
and placed under guard in the house Of Mr..
Sawyer. No indications of violence were
manifested Robinson wanted his wife to go
on to St. Louis, but the citizens advised her
to remain with him, as there would be less
danger of his receiving il-treatment in her
company. She remained with him. The
citizens pledged themselves that, if the arrest
should prove 10 be unjusti6able, they would
release Robinson and pay his expenses to his
destination.
1t was rumored at Lexington that Robinson
and Reeder were to have met at Kansas, and
taken passage together, and as Reeder had not
passed Lexington, it was supposed that he had
been arrested, too, a tsome point above.-St.
Louis Nea0s May II.
Warrants had been issued for the arrest
of Robinson, Reeder, Lane and others, for
high treason; hence their fight from Kan

To the Point,

The Louisville Journal propounded re-
Gently to the Democrat the interrogatory
which our neighbor Of the Gazette put to
the Union and american On the 18th
inst, the Democrat responded as follows
The Journal asks this question: "Would you,
or would You not, support for Office any man
who has sworn to obey, and with all is might
cause Others to obey, the rules, ordinances,
mandates, and dispositions of foreign po-
tentate" We ANSWER UNHKsITATINGLY, THAT
WE SHOULD NOT.
Then, upon the Catholic question there
is no difference of opinion really between
the Journal and the Democrat.

FRIDAY MAY Is. 1856.

GREKLY's OPINION OF Mr. FILLMoRK's STRENGTH.
Almost every day we hear some Of the OPP
position papers say that Mr.. Fillmore cannot
obtain the electoral vote of a single State in
the Union. To all such we commend the fol-
lowing, from Horace Greeley, written soon af-
ter the Philadelphia Convention:
'Mr Fillmore's administration was entirely
satisfactory 70 the Conservatives of slavery in
that section, and he will pretty surely receive
the electoral votes Of Delaware, Maryland, Ken
lucky and Tennessee. North Carolina and
Louisiana are doubtful; Florida not impossi-
bic; even Georgia may be fairly contested
1t is also a significant fact that the States
here set down for Mr. Fillmore are those which
have been the most liberal and patriotic on all
questions arising between the two sections
States that always sustained the gallant Clay.
Think of this, reader.-Aobile AdOertiser.
Our friend of the Advertiser might have
added, that Mr. FILLMORE will prove himself
strong in every State where a conservative,
national, Union sentiment is strong. And
we are too hopeful not to think that this is
the case in a vast majority of the states in
the Union. Mr.. FILLMORE will surely car
~ all of the above mentioned states, and
more than twice as many more. The whole
country is worn out with the racking with
which Democracy has cursed it, and longs
as sick man for peace and ease. Under
the benign administration of Mr.. FILLMORE,
il enjoyed these blessings, and it turns to
him for relief again. And it will receive
it. Such trial as that of the past few
years will teach it how to appreciate it,
and not trihe it away.

The snow of Age.

INFAMOUS OUTRAGE BY ROMAN CATHOLIC
PRIEsr-we take the following from the York pa
Republioan, Of Wednesday:
On Sunday last the Priest officiating at ST. Ma.
rvs Catholic Chapel GERMANY In the south ward,
took occasion TO kick = lady, the mother of grown
up men, all of them members Of his congregation.
The sons, indignant at such conduct TO their aged
parent, called at his residence and resented the
outrSge. The sons appeared at their accustomed
place at ST. Marys Chapel, 10 the pew they had
paid for, at the afternoon service on Sunday last.
No sooner had they made their appearance, how
ever, than the Priest attempted 10 eject them from
the sanctuary by violence, which resisted by
them, when general melee and Stree fight en-
sued in which the congregation joined, whilst bat
tered heads and bloody noses resulted thereirom.
The citizens Ia that section Of the town called
70 the spot by the tumult and were shocked AZ
