PuILAp., June 20. 1856.
The R,ac,. Republican or Niger Worship
| tns convention assembled IN this city las
! Monday. We verify believe there never wa.
such a woody gathering. All stripes from inky
black TO milky white were properly represen
| ted. IL contained large number of the black
est-hearted, whie-lIvered, hvpocrit scoun
! drels exant, who poured out the walls of theil
! wrath unsparInely upon the heads of men IN
| the Democratic ranhs-men whose boots they
are not fit 10 clean. II is notorious tha, this
Black Republican Convention contained more
rowdyism, blackguardism, dema eogueism and
nisger-worshipism Than was ever before cou.
/ grated together al one time in This Uniun---Ths
is a wicked world and filled with all kinds OF
rascals incl uding abolitionists and thieves.
"This world also contains at least one
person in Philad. who has probably forgot
ten if he ever learned the command ''thou
shalt not bear false witness" What will
honest men say when informed-as we do
state from the best reliable sources-that
every material allegation made above is
utterly false! There was not colored
man 4 member of the Conventions from
Monday morning to their close all we're
"free white men," 1t was no Abolition
gathering, for the Abolitionists have had
their own Convention and made their own
Nominations, differing from ours There
were very near GOO Delega,es-resolute
and earnest men-who spoke freely, and
were excited by honest differences of opin.
ion, manfully discussed but there was
neither "rowdyism" or "blackguardism"
among the members. 1t is doubtful wbe-
ther so large popular Convention has
ever met, containing so much of talents,
intellect and respectability. There were
eight or ten Governors and Ex-Governors
in attendance, and every rank of true dig.
nifty and honor was fully represented. As
average specimens Of those who composed
the assemblages described as above in the
"Argus," we give the names of all from
this vicinity, known to most Of our read
ers personally: JAMES F. LINN, THOMAS
HAYES, ELI SLFER, JOHN b. LINN, of
Union county, DAVID TAGGARr of North
cumberland, WM. II ARMSTRONG of Eastou
and WM II CHAMBERLIN of California
the two last, natives Of Lewisburg. We
submit to our readers whether such men
if they were in that line of business-are
fit to clean the boots of any of the slave
holding Democratic gentry, not excepting
the duelist Breckenridge, Brooks, Herbert,
Butler, ''noble Frank" old Buck, or even
the dictator Of Democracy, Douglas himself! |
This valuable Correspondent is said
to have made money by Southern trade,
and it is fully evident from his writings is
deeply interested in the triumph Of Slavery
n the coming contest. A bachelor, surely
MS devotion to the cause which protects
hose "twin relics of bsrbarism, polypamy
md slavery" entitle him to Gil the first
'acancy in the perfect democracy Of Utah!

the boldest aud most wanton attscts upon hu.
man liberty ever perpetrated even under a
despotlc government; and that the people of
the North should hold the administration
party to strict account for this renewed and
unparalleled violation alike of its duties and
of its solemn pledges
Resolced, that the cowardly assault upon
the Hon. CHAs. SUMNER by P. s. Brooks
OF South Carolina, in order to intimidatc
Northern Members of Congress, in the free
expression of their opinions, deserved the
most signal public rebuke; aud that the
House of Representations should promptly
mark its Reproduction of this valorous act of
"chaoatry," by expclling said Brooks from
that body, as worthy only to associate with
rufians and assassins.
Resolced, That, in view of the recent un-
tultigated outrages committed BY the Admin
lstratlon and its minions upon the unoffonding
citizens of Kansas, we hereby agree to sup
port no man for the Office of President or
Vice President Of the United States, who is
not pledged to oppose to the extent of his
power and influence, the aggressioas of the
Slave Power, and to favor the immediate ad-
mission Of Kansas as Free State.

out honesty, decency, or decorum, We may
have used plainness of speech, but not more than
the occasion demands. For unless the govern
mIent, can vindicate itself, and protect the mem
bercs of Congress from such brutal treatment, the
sooner it comes to an end, the better. The day
OF good men and OF great men, seems to have
gone by. The fathers of the Republic, who
cemented its foundations in, blood, have gone to
their reward. The bright and the beautiful the
noble and the valiant sleep in dust The history
of the past, and hopes of the future. are dust
and ashes, barren scep,er in our grippe, unless
speedy reformation is accomplished. These
piague-spots, on our national esecutcheon, mus,
be wiped out and that speedily I,F.R.

ESCAPE OF A FUGITIVE SLAvR.-Thc Montreal
Herald states that passenger arrived in that
city, on the 18th ult., by the Underground
Railroad, having had narrow escape from the
U. s. Marshal, at St, Adams. 1t appears he
left aervitude in Baltimore on the l4th OF Jan
uary, and made his way towards Canada, as far
as St. Albans, where he found employment. On
the 18th ult,, his former master, and U. ).
Marshal arrived at the latter place. On making
inquiries for the object Of their pursuit, they
were informed that they would be more success
full in securing the prize at Waterbury, w..
