Freedom in Virginia.

The REASON WHY THERE IS NO FREMONT
PARTY IN THE SoUTH.-The Wheeling papers
give an account of an outrage in that city, sim
liar to those which have been perpetrated in
other parts of the southern country, and which
shows that the degree Of freedom enjoyed
there is about equal TO that permitted in Ma
pies and Russia. Some of the citizens of
Wheeling met to form Fremont Club. They
violated no law they infringed upon no rights;
they exercised only the plainest privileges Of
fgeemen. BY the confession OF the Wheeling
papers which justify this outrage upon them,
they entertained sentiments that are shared by
many of their fellow citizens, but who evil
IDENTIFY dare not speak what they think.
These citizens met to deliberate upon mat
tiers of high public concern were assaulted by
mob, driven from the room, two men were
stabbed, the speaker kicked into the street, and
taken to prison 10 escape lynch law. And
thls took place in g free country" and the
men who did this, accuse us of the North, and
Northern doughfaces Join in the accusation,
that we nave organized upon a sectional party,
DcoauSo no one speaks Of Fremont in the
pou'h' An TINS Is done to make James Blu
chanan fFeslaeht and If Northern men sub
NIT TO nave Their politics erammed down their
Threats IN that way, II they do not rise in tho
might OF their majority andinaugurate an ad-
ministrauon that shall secure the freedom of
speech and the freedom Of political action
under the Constitution and the laws. thew Vii,
show themselves worthy Of the subord;rate
and contemplate position TO which thoy are
assigned by the public opinion of the South

agBlnst Lane and his men
Lanes men have not reached Lawrence.
Last Monday they came into Topeka, about
400 men, beside women and children, escorted
by company of 100 Topeka men. They
presented quite formidable appearance. a
string of wagons upward of a mile in length,
loaded with farming implements, household
furniture, provisions, &c; and upon close
examination the muzzle of a rifle might occa-
sonally be seen, in some convenient place for
the occupants of the wagon to lay hands up
on at moments notice. The Southern
chivalry who started from Westport, Leaven-
worth, Weston, Atchson, ST Joseph, and
this place, to intercept and prevent their en-
trance into the Territory, were beyond the
reach of gun shot, following in their wake,
and probably wondering If one chioGiyic son
Of the South aoas really equal to four Northern
Abohtionists.' From the fhct that they have
made no hostile demonstrations, they must
have come to the conclusion that, even hand
ed, the Abolitionists (as they term all North
ern men) might show them hard fight

The following letter from Hon. Charles
Sumner was miscarried or mislaid so that the
Committee did not receive it in season to read
it at the Fitchburg Convention. 1t Will be
read with great interest:
ericsson, (Alleghany Mountains,)
Penn, 9TH Aug, 56.
DEAR SIR IL wish that l could be with
the Young Men of Massachusetts at their
proposed Convention but l am so feeble still
that L am constrained to turn away from all
temptations and opportunities of labor. In
writing this letter, | transcend the rule pre-
serbed by my physician.
We have been told that ''the duties of life
are more than life, and l assure you that the
hardest part of my present lot is the enforced
absence from public duties. and especially
from that seat, where, as Senator from Mas
saehusetts, it is my right, and, also my strong
desire at this moment to be heard. But in
the GOODNESS Of the mountain retreat, where 1
now am, begin already to gather hope of
restoration to strength; if too tardily for the
performance of any public duties during the
session of Congress now about to close, yet in
season t. take gart in the rally Of the People
for the overthrow OF the oligarchical Tyranny
which now degrades our Republic.
Mean while, l commit the cause which we
have at heart, to the generous sympathies Of
the People, who will surely rise to smite the
oppressor. Especially do invoke the young.
They are the natural guardians of Liberty
Thus has it cen, throughout all history; and
never before in history did Liberty stand in
greater need of their irresistible aid. 1t is
the young who give spontaneous welcome
to Truth when she first appears as an unat.
tended stranger. 1t is the young, who open
their souls with instructive hospitality to the
noble cause. The young men of Massachu-
sets act under natural impulses when they
step forward as the body guard of the Repub-
lican Party.
When the great discoverer Harvey first an
nounced ''the circulation of the blood, he
was astonished to find that no person apsoard8
Of forty received this important truth. 1t
was the young only who embraced it. More
fortunate than this discovery, our cause rallies
i'll its support alike the experience Of age, and
the ardor Of youth but still it is III the
glowing embrace of the young that it finds
assurance OF Victory.
Were able to make myself heard. through
out the land would say to the young men
everywhere who truly love Liberty: s'Your
candidate has been the renowned pioneer Of
civilization in unsettled wastes associate
yourselves with him now as pioneers of
"Libertv in the National Government help
''him unfurl at Washington the flag which he
''tirst unfurled on the peaks of the Rocky
"mountains; and be co partners with him in
''the true glory Of redeeming our beloved
"country.
Present to the Young Men of Massachu.
sets, WHOM you represent, the assurance of
my sincere interest in their happiness and
welfare, and believe me, my dear Sir, with
much regard, Faithfully Yours,
