The nomination of Fillmore for the Presidency
Of the United States, has been received by his
politica, friends in Virginia, as far as we can as
certain, with great enthusiasm. II is beyond our
province to intermeddle in political matters. but
chronclers of the events of the day. we may
be permitted to say that never knew nomi.
nation to give more satisfaction to party. The
name of Fillmore in connection with nomination
for the Presidency, seemed TO come upon his
friends with the enlveniug influence Of spring
day after long winter We had not anticipated
SO speedy a nomination. But Mr.. Fillmore seems
TO have gone ahead Of his only prominent eompe-
titor, Mr.. George Law, with great ease. All par
ties agree that it was tie very best nomination
the American party could have made. Mr..
Fillmore is a statesman of eminent ability md
experienced highly conservative character, and
whoever may be brought out by the Democracy
will find in him foeman worthy of his steel.
From the Journal of Commerce Democratic
The KNOW NOTHING CoNvENgIoS.-The Ma
tionai Convention Of Know Nethings have done
well. all things considered. The nomination of
Millard Fillmore is the best they could have made
and that Of Andrew J. Donelsnn is not bad. Mr..
Fillmore is thoroughly national. and when in the
Presidential chair n former OCCASION gained
the confidence of the whole country, always ex.
ceptng the Abolitionists and their coadjutors.-
He will command large vote, but whether suf
fcent to carry him in, remains To be seen. This
will depend very much upon the character OF the
Democratic nominee yet TO be designated. They
will nominate good man.and very probably will
elect ha. But, should they fail in this it il
some comfort to believe that his pace will be &C
cupied by safe. upright, judicious and worth,
man as Willard Fillmore.

We continue to make extracts from leading
political journals in different parts of the coun-
try expressive Of the high qualification with which
the nominations of Fillmore and Donelson are
received and the confidence which all entertain
in their success. This confidence is based up
on the patriotic conviction that nsled by fanat-
icism as many OF our people are. and stepped in
party bgotiy others. there are vet left
American citizens enough free from these
lign influences, aud aetuaied solely by a desire
TO preserve the institutions and liberties of The
country. to secure the election to the Presidency
of a man. whose antecedents aud character pre-
sent the amplest guaranty that he will administer
the government in accordance with the precepts
and examples of the earlier Presidents strict
regard TO the rights of ALL and firm purpose to
restrain every movement against the peace Of
the community, the obligation Of the laws.and
the integrity of the constitution. We should
be grieved 20 think that such conviction was
based in error-to doubt thai there are good men
and patriots enough. nnconiaminated by the cor
rup,ing tendencies of modern polItics.to save the
land for which Washington fought aud the law,

From the New York Express
As for Fillmore and Donelson. they will Ger.
tainly take New York. After the great impromp-
tn vote Ullman got !lhe year before last and the
triumphant election Of a substantial Fillmore

old horse here is switier seed than the hest of

Fremont and The South.

The following extract from the letter of
a Georgia STAKEHOLDER to the New York
Times, is worthy of.attention:
"And as to the forming of Fremont
Party in every Slave State, do not hesi-
tate to say it conld be done with ease, if
mobs were out of the way. And it could
be done, if necessary, in spite of mobs. A
few brave hearts could do the work any
where. But, misrepresented as Fremont
has been, | will not say that he could get
the electoral vote of any Slave State.-
Yet it is beyond all doubt that he could get
thousands of the peoples votes in every
one Of these States. | will go further
| will predict that in twelve months from
now there wiU be a Republican party in
every Southern State. Such party will
not be based upon hostility.to the vested
rights of any man or any class of men. 1t
will have for its object the introduction,
among other people, of fraternal feelings
towards their fellow-citizens of every sec
ton, and of a system of rational politics.
There are now already Fremont electori-
al tickets formed in Kentucky, Virginia,
Maryland and Delaware, and it is said there
will soon be one in Missouri and Texas.

mediately be shot; and a revolver was held
to her head while they tied her hands be-
hind her back. They then carried her a
few hundred yards from the house into a
patch of long prairie grass, and commenced
their hellish deeds-three standing guard
while they each in turn violated her person.
She had swooned from fear, and had not
returned to a state of entire consciousness
when this inllulnan assault was made upon
her person.
After completing their infamy, they
kicked her in the side and abdomen, and
left her, it is supposed to die. How long
she remained in state of insensibilitv. she
does not know, but she was enabled to
stagger in the direction of the house. On
reaching it she was unable to open the
door, her hands being tied behind her back,
and she was unable to speak, her tongue
being tied with a string and now swollen
to an alarming size. She was too weak to
shout, and in the effort to do so, she faint
ed. In falling she overturned an empty
churn which stood near the door, and the
noise made by the churn against the
side of the house awoke Mr.. Hyatt and his
family, who found her-in the condition de-
scribed.
On Sunday last, the 23d,. she took, at
the request Of DIR. Avery, some nourishing
food; but her case is nearly hopeless. She
has had several fits of convulsions, and
though her friends believed last night that
she would die before this morning, she still
lives. 1t is supposed that the pro-slavery
hired man and three of his associates were
the perpetrators OF this villainy.
The facts of the above case were given
TO me bv Dr. Avery, who attended the lady
professionally, and who accompanied the
Richmond company into this Territory
On his statement | have the most implicit
reliance. He is spoken of by the Buffalo
Convention Committee in their report as
being 50 wise, discrete and accomplished
physician" and as he made professional
visit to the lady, he knows all about the
case. And Vet, with all these most inhu-
man outrages before their eyes, there is a
class of men, even in the North, who pro
fess to believe that negro slavery eleyat9s
the character of the whiles.
1t is needless to say that these villains
are at large, and, like the murderers of
Hoyt and others, always will be, the bogus
laws having been made for the punishment
of Free State men only.

Correspondence of the New York Tribune.
Fiendish Outrage upon a: Young
LADY.

LAWRENCE, K. T., Aug. 81, 1856.
1t is my duty to record one of the most
hellish outrages which ever disgraced any
age or country; but which, alas is not an
insulated one in our beautiful Territory
Let this case be handed down as an cvi-
dence of the demoralizing effects upon hu-
manity of that cursed institution which our
rulers are trying to force upon us.
A Mr.. Henry Hyatt, with his wife and
family, moved from Milton, Wayne county,
Indiana, to Kansas, and settled on claim
on Washington Greek, about seven miles
south from this city. Accompanying his
wife was a young widow lady, a friend of
the family, who desired to emigrate to
Kansas. Mr.. Hyatt commenced building
"a mill on his claim last Spring, and, as cx-
ira hands were needed, a Pro Slavery man
was employed, who boarded at his house.
1t was soon noticed that when any news
of the movements of the Free State or Pro-
Slavery parties reached Hyatt's, that this
man after supper time, would go otto the
rendezvous above, known as Fort Sanders,
which has since been broken up, and there
stay until quite late in the night, and that
on Sabbath evening he spent all his time
either there or at the house ofa pro-slavery
neignbor close by. At last Mr.. Hyatt's
family, whose feelings and sympathies are
with the cause of freedom here, charged
him with being spy, and the young lady
cited instances of his visits to pro-slavery
places after the receipt of news by them,
with an earnestness very distasteful to the
Ruffian. The result was that he left Mr..
Hyatt's employment.
On the night of Wednesday, August 20,
when all the family had gone to rest, the
young lady left her room and went to one
of the outbuildings in the rear of the house.
On her return she was seized by four
masked ruffians, and so overcome was she
by terror, that before she could scream,
her tongue was choked out of her mouth
and tied with string behind her head and
around her neck She was then told that
if she made the least uoisc she would i'm

Thunder out of a clear sky.


Never were gang Of rogues thrown in
TO wilder confusion, than have been the
Buchanan men by the result in Maine.
Some are speechless, and have retired from
the field; Others, with a touch of lunacy,
are gabbling about the "sober second
thought" " and the ''re-action" of November
while others, i'll DESPERATION as they see
the prospect of fat offices fading into obliv-
ion, are attempting union with the Fill
more force!
This result in Maine, has settled the main
questionable fact that Fremont is to carry
every Free State. 1t is now merely ques-
ton of myorities.
What secured the great result in Maine I!
WORK continued, d,persevering WORK. Let
us not forget this, in Ohio. But everywhere
WORK, WORK; push the canvass into every
school district, and let no voter of our State
go to the polls without thorough acquain-
tance with the great issue of the campaign.
Don't depend upon Newspapers, or Doc
uments, or Public Speakers, but let every
man work in his own neighborhood and
within the range of his own influence. Ohio
must answer back the ''Thunder" of Maine,

ESThe Fremont meeting on the public
landing last evening, was called to order by
Judge Probasco, the law partner of Tom
Corwin, and among the Secretaries were
William H. Corwin, Tom Corwin's son, and
George R. Sage, his son-in-law, also Thomas
Ewing, Jr., son of the old Salt Boiler.
Another of the Secretaries, W.Warnock, was
we understand, a Buchanan man until within
the past month. Wemay add to the above
significant facts that Col. Isaiah Morris, OF

man who in the Constitutional Convention
gave the coup de grace John Doe and Rich

LOcOfOcO Split.

-..- Now York. Sept 16.
Two Conventions of the Democracy
were held last evening at Tammany Hall,
for the nomination of candidates for the
Mayorality. These were composed of del
egates representing the Wood and Custom
House factions. Both are arraved in hos
tiity to each other, but they were both
unanimous in the objects for which they
were assembled.
They adjourned without coming into
contact. The Custom House delegates
nominated Mr.. James S. Libby, Ex-Alder-
man of the 2nd Ward, while their opponen-
is nominated the present incumbent of the
office, Mayor Wood.
