The Germans i'm Boston.
Hon. P. S. BROOKS.

There is great enthusiasm and earnestness for
Fremont and Dayton among the Germans of Bos
ton. The "Anzeiger des Nordens," the German
paper published there-a paper which has hereto
fore supported the Pierce OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES de-
clared against the Buchanneer ticket, and come
out in support of the Philadelphia nominations
and platform. Last Saturday it put the names of
Fremont and Dayton at the head of its columns,
and put forth its declaration for Freedom, against
the black band of Buchanneers who audaciously
call themselves democrats. The Telegraph
translates few passages from this declaration of
its position:
cit is a sad sign for those interested in the
progress of mankind and convincing proof
of the power and authority of old usages, that
here in the nineteenth century and In repub-
lie which proudly calls itself the freest nation
on earth, we are compelled to struggle against
the most terrible kind of slavery. From the
days of Washington and Jefferson to the pres
ent time, the power of the Shareholders has
gone forward step by step; they have taken
possession of the richest lands in the republic,
and have not only seized the reins of govern
ment, but have also taken possession of the
most influential positions in the public service,
and, worst of all, usurped entire control Of the
Supreme Court, the highest judicial tribunal
in the United States When this republic
was founded, ii was the general opinion that
slavery would soon disappear, and it was not
deemed advisable even to mention the thing
in the Constitutions Constitution in which
the common rights of man were for the first
time distinctly put forth but now we see the
whole great North pressed down and degraded.

FREMONT MOVEMENT IN KENTuoKY.-Ihe
Louisville Journal, referring 10 the Fremont
movement in that State, remarks:
1t is notorious fact that all the electors
upon this Fremont electoral ticket, SO far ns
their antecedents are known here, have here
toiore been Democrats and voted for the De-
mocratic candidates in the last State election.
George ID. Blakely, of Logan, one of the Ere.
mont electors for the State at large, was the
democratic elector for the Sd district in lS4S.
Both of the Fremont electors for the State OF
large did all they could for Clarke.
The vote of the German population Of
Kentucky is estimated ae lO, 1000. This vote
has hitherto been given to the Democratic par
ty, but nearly the whole of il will now go to
the support of this Fremont ticket. In '54 the
Free German Republicans of this State held
a convention in Louisville and adopted an ul-
ira anti-slavery platform. They have since
continued TO net with the Democratic party
only because they had no opportunity to vote
Freesoil candidates, but ow they will in
body leave the Democracy and sustain the
Freosoil ticket. 1t is evident to every we'll
informed man that the whole strength of this
Fremont party in Kentucky will be derived
exclusively from the Democratic ranks, and
that this Freesoil movement will place Mr.
Buchanan in q minority OF not much lese than
$4,000 votes in this State.

How THE PRESIDENT KEPT HIS PRoM1sE.

night, speaking of President Pierce, said
AT Marshfeld, over the open grave of the
immortal Webster, he was /" like Niobe. all
in tears" A few months later, upon the
steps of the Capitol al Washington, before the
assembled thousands, after reciting the causes
which co operated to make him President of
this Republic, and enumerating the expecta.
tons Of the people, with the oath OF God
upon his lips, he declared that the people
should not be disappointed. But no sooner did
that duped throng dispense, than he took
with him seven other spirits more wicked
than himself, and the last end OF that man is
worse than the first.

DEAR SIR have deemed it proper and
Just to make the following statement =
At your request, l called yesterday, at near
three o clock, as your friend, upon Hon. Mr..
Burlingame, that being the first opportunity
had of meeting him and of delivering your
note. After he had read it, informed him
that was requested by you to urge that a
meeting should take place at the earliest prac-
ticable moment, suggesting that afternoon, or
this morning at four clock, and hoped that
it would suit his convenience. further stat
ed that you had supposed all differences be-
tween yon and hims elf had been adjusted !;
that he (Mr. Burlingame) had reopened the
matter, as you supposed, for personal diff
Guilty, and that you were anxious to have it
ended without delay
He replied-"That is the feeling of gal
liant man, and Brooks is a brave man." and
that he would have to look out for friend,
and had none in his mind at the time and
perhaps he could not be ready for meeting
at as early an hour as you requested.
also impressed upon him the necessity of
entire secresy, save with his friend, and further
requested that he or his friend would com
munieate with me at MY seat while the House
was in session, or at my room after the ad-
journment, and as he had the right of Sc
leetlng the place 1or the meeting, and such
other arrangements as are usual upon such
occasions, that he would have the kindness to
let me know at as early an hour as was con.
venient, when and where, and what it would
be.
Last evening, about eleven o'clock, the en-
closed note from Mr.. Burlingame was placed
in my hand by the Hon. l.. d. Campbell
The place of meeting designated in said note,
is so far distant, and would suhieet Won to so
many hazards of arrest, and also to juris-
diction without the limits of the United States
that, as your friend, l advise you, without
hesitation, to take no further notice of the
matter. am, sir, very respectfully.
