New HAMPsHIRE-The Concord Statesman,
the organ of the old line Wings of New Hamp-
shire, says as follows in regard to the Wing vote
of that State -
We know what we say-we sneak from
information of nature that cannot properly
be denled-when we say, that nearly the en-
JlTe vote cast for Mr.. Goodwin for Governor,
last spring, will be given to the peoples can
dldate, John g. Fremont. There is within
the Granite State no more firm supporter of
Fremont than Ichabod Goodwin, and if those
who voted last spring for him, desire TO afford
further evidence of their regard, there is no
course by which more directly to accomplish
their purpose than by voting for Fremont
They will do so nearly in body"

WASHINGTON, Wednesday, Aug. 13.-The
house is firm to-day. The Appropriation bill
came back from the Senate with the pYoviso
annulling the bogus laws, and releasing the
State prisoners stricken out. After the sharp
est debate of the aession, the proviso was re-
added, the previous question called, and the
vote will be the first thing in order, to-mor-
row.
Mr.. Campbell was opposed to the proYiso on
the ground that he knew the State prisoners
in Kanzas would not be convicted. This an
nouncement was a bomb shell that threw con-

things which Noble could ne, er learn. Hav.

wrongs on the country by the repeal of the
Missouri compromise. He repeated that he
knew and believed that those men arrested in
Kanzas on the charge Of treason for violation
OF the laws of what is termed the bogus Leg
isature, would not be prosecuted TO punish
ment. lie then said to Mr. kunkel that he
never should violate the confidence reposed
IN him by giving the source Of his mfoIma-
ton.
Mr. Letcher said the President had no more
right to discharge the indicted parties in Kan
zas, than if they were detained in Virginia
Mr. Campbell remarked that he had re-
celyed no official communication, but believed
the prosecutions would not be carried on to
the extent of treason.
Mr.. Stanton of Ohio put no faith in the
executive promise, and would not threfore
so legislate. For one he should adhere to the
proviso disregardlng all consequences.
Mr. Orr Of South Carolina said he had no
official Information to communicate to the
House, but he had no doubt that the supDo-
sltlon OF Mr.. Campbell was correct. He did
not concur with Mr.. Letcher, that the Presi
dent had no right to discontinue the prosecu-
tons in Kanzas He thought the Executive
could never enter a noile pao8egui and did not
believe the accused had gone far enough in
what they had done to constitute treason.
Mr.. Galloway Of Ohio advocated the limit
alton of the appropriation, and said they
were reduced by stern necessity to that sad
alternative.
Humphrey Marshall thought the House
ought 30 breathe ireer and DEEPER than thew
had done for months past. He was gratifed
that President Pierce had made a confidential
communication to ills House.
Mr., Campbell of Ohio - The gentleman
from Kentucky has no authority for using
that language.
Mr.. Humphrey MARSHALL have right to
draw such an inference. Those VINO have
been kicking up such fuss in Kanzas are
to be let off. He wanted the country TO
know this, so that those from the North and
South who have been defending " SOVEREIGN
rights " may cry Eureka.
Mr.. Giddings congratulated the country on
the auspicious fact that the representative
voice had at last been heard at the other end
Of the avenue. He thanked God he had
been permitted to see this day.
Mr.. Campbell wished to speak, but Mr..
Giddings refused to Weld the hoor

FROM KANzAs.-The Chicago Tribune has
adviees from Kanzas to the 9TH instant. The
emigrants who crossed Nebraska into Kanzas,
entered the Territory in squads, without mil
itary organization, .but armed to repel an at
tack. They looked dangerous enough to be
let alone. The Tribune says
eat Leavenworth, the pro-slavery party
were as usual domineering over the Free State
men. They are considerably alarmed at the
demonstrations made IN the North, and the
emigration going forward across Iowa. They
begin to think that they are playing losing
game. The mercenaries from the South are
getting poorer and poorer every day, as the
opportunities for plumber are less freqnent
Nowadays they net unfrequently turn their
arms upon each other. The approach of the
Northern emigration was giving quiet to the
interior of the Territory. The cry Of all the
friends of free Kanzas, is for more men %

From the Chicago Tribune.

We learn from Western Missouri that the
business men of the border towns-Westport
and Kanzas City in particular-are getting
thoroughly tired of the troubles growing out
of the numerous raids of the Missouriaus up
on Kanzas. Their sales do Lot reach half
their usual amount; debts for large stocks
are pressing upon them, which they have not
the means to discharges collections are bad
and ruin stares them in the face. So sensi-
bly,, the merchants in kanzas City-not the
merchants only, but the larger portion of the
mechanics-have resolved to attempt to arrest
the atrocious outrages which are impoverish-
ing them, and to bring their perpetrators to
punishment. With this view, they have
formed Free Trade Association, numbering
one hundred or more members, the object of
which is to protect emigrants who choose to
land at the levees, and to defend those who
come to the town TO buy or sell, regardless of
their politics or place of residence They
have at last learned that Border Ruffians,
filled with bad wbiskey and loud oaths, swag-
gering arouud--each with bowie knife and
revolver, ready for row whenever he has an
advantage, or for stealing horse when OPP
portunity offers, or for cutting a throat when
ever necessity compels-are not the men to
make a country prosperous or its merchants
rich. They have discovered that the quiet
Northern man, with his higher civilization,
his demand for mere comforts in his home
and more decency in his apparel, for machine.
ry on his farm and in his workshop, and books
in his house, is the true and best patron of
industry and commerce, and they are again
reaching after his trade. The discovery is
made at a late day, but it is valuable, and we
trust the Free Trade Association will act upon
its ggestions.- Chicago Tribune.

IMPORTANT DISCOVERY IN hYDRAUL1cs.-We
learn that an improvement in engines for lifting
water to great attitudes has just been made by
gentleman OF this city-an improvement which
fully realizes the Marquis of Worcester's Tooth
proposition.
To discharge, with the ordinary engine, one Gu
bic foot of water, at an altitude of one hundred
feet, would require sixty two hundred. ponds Of
force through the whole stroke of one foot the
piston having an area of one sqnare foot The
improvement aceomplIshes the same result with
force of only sixty two pounds, the weight of
a cubic foot of fresh water. This immense gain
is obtained by lifting only the weight of the wa.
ter discharged at each stroke of the piston in
the ordinary engines, the weight of the whole
column and the quantity discharged must be
lifted at every stroke. This improvement is not
confined to lifting pumps, but can be applied to
condensers and generating Of pressure. 1t is
thought, by those who have witnessed its opera.
tons, that an important revolution in motive
force is about to be developed.
