Another lie Nailed.

1t will be well for our friends to receive
all charges made against our candidates
with several grains of allowance. All the
charges against FREMoN yet have been
proven to be grossly false, and we now have
the pleasure of mailing another down. Many
of our readers have no doubt seen the article
from a Alderman FULMER referred to above;
if they have we hope they will read with
care the follow ing, and not only read it, but
pass it around among their friends. Again
we say, party which resorts TO fyino 10
gain its ends must be exceedingly hard up
FOR capital.
From the New York Courier and Enquirer.
The Fulmer Charge against Col.
Fremont.
The Express for the last week or two has
been making great ado over story of
Alderman Fulmer's, that in the early part of
1852, he had heard Col. Fremont avow him
self a Roman Catholic, in Washington. -
Our cotemporary, who seems to have great
respect for Aldermen, would brook no denial
of Alderman Fulmer's infallibility, but some
unknown hand, in the Herald, has put coal
to it that has blown it sky-high. He shows,
by the files of the Express itself, that, at
the time specfed-the last part of January
or early part of February-Col. Fremont
was in California--that he soon after sailed
for Panama, by the steamship Tennessee,
proceeded to New Orleans, took the Empire
Ciry reached New York on the 9Th of March
and on the 10th sailed for Europe. We
have examined our own files, and find the
facts, here given. corroborated.
To The Editor of the Herald:
Alderman Fulmer, on the 10th Of July in
slant, at the Clerks Office of the Copnon
Council in the city of New York, said, in
the presence of several gentlemen, that the
conversation he had with Col. Fremont, at
Browns Hotel in Washington, relative to
Fremont's religion, as stated in the New
York Express, took place in the latte, part
of January or the fore part of February,
1852; as he, Fulmer, went to Washington
the fore part of January, 1859, remained
there about six weeks, and returned home
New York before the middle of February of
that year.
On looking at the files of the NJ York
Erening Erpress Of the year 1852, the fol-
lowing appears:

daughter of Mrs. Farlow, of Maiden Lane,
New York, was for three years in a most

fortunately the child was not benefited bs

sSFThe Black Republicans terribly afraid
tilt Douglass Bill will pass the house, and then
pc ice will be restored To The country, and theiI
whole stock h ira de gone.-Gazette u Citizen.
1t is nothing bu, "peace" that the "Black
Republicans" desire. If "Squatter sover-
eignty'' is to be the rule why not carry it
out, and let the actual settlers settle their
own afiairs in their own way, without inter-
ference on the part Of outside Bor der Ruff
fans! Instead of this, however, President
PIERCE has not raised hand in support OF
the actual residents in Kansas, but on the
contrary has connived at their murder and
oppression. If, as YOU say, restoring peace
will destroy our stock in trade, admit Kan
sas with her Topeka Constitution. This is
all we desire for Kansas, and if the African
Democracy really desire peace they will
admit her. douglass Bill' violates every
principle of "squatter sovereignty" and
binding Kansas hand and foot, throws her
into the supreme control Of pro-slavery
Administration, and pro-slavery commission.
To this the Republican party, is opposed,
now and forever.

4 Good One.

After the Democratic papers have most
assiduously attempted to fasten WENDELL
PuILLIPs and VIM. LLOYD GARRISON on the
Republican party, and to attribute to that
party their disunion sentiments, it appears
that they are out for JAMES BUCHANAN
Their speeches are in the New York Herald
they were made on the 4th inst: at Boston
They give their reasons, too for this move
They consider this Union as on unholy thing
and Union which should be dissolved; and
they further say that if JAMES BUCHANAN is
elected and carries out the doctrines of the
African Democracy :he Union cannot stand
they are therefore for BUCHANAN for Pre-
sident.
We would suggest that the Gazette bring
out the cannon and publish these distinguish
ed accessions to BUcHAEAN's piebald ranks.

An Inquiry.
OBSERVER.

To the E!ior Of The Belmont Chronicle:
| Feeling an interest in the financial affairs
and condition of our county, have been
waiting for some weeks 10 see publication
Of the Receipts and Expenditures for the
last fiscal year. believe, sir, that the set
teme mt is usually made in June of every
year by the Commissioners, and it has been
the custom of the Auditor to publish them
Immediately after it is made; at least, it was
so done last year within few days after the
settlement. Why is it kept back now for
nearly two months! is it that there is some
thing wrong, or that the settlement has not
been made, or is it that the campaign is
opened and an election Cor county officers is
approaching!
Will you be kind enough to inform me,
and oblige many citizens OF our township,
who feel as much interest in the matter as
if they lived at the capitol.
PULTsEY TOWNSHIP.
INoTE BY THE EDITOR OF CHRONICLE
1t is true that last year the Receipts and Ex-
peDditures were published In July, OF lmme-
date " after the June settlement; Gt was
the frs, time, however, for some years, that
they were published SO soon;) it is also true
that they have not yet been published, al
though upwards of six weeks have elapsed
since the June settlement. Of the cause of
this we are as ignorant as our ~Pultney
Township correspondent can possibly be.
We have no doubt, however, but that the
above inquiry will be promptly responded to
by Capt CHAKLEswoRrH, who has ever
eyinced desire to enlighlen the people of
this county upon any question it was in his
power to unravel. We will very gladly be
the medium of the reply to the above in
quries.

The Janus-faced Democracy.

II has been but short time since the De-
mocracy most industriously ransacked their
whole vocabulary of billingsgate, and bitter
anathemas for terms to heap upon the heads
of the American party, or as they called
them, members of the dark lantern party
-"midnight conspirators," &c, &c. In
one short year, however, we find that the
whole tone o. the Democratic press has
changed toward that party. The Ohio
Statesman "olazes" the way, and lauds the
Fillmore men to the skies, and forthwith
The fea-bit mongrels, wakening one by one,
Give answer all" Rttt
The Gazette among the number comes to
the rescue, and we find il in its last issue
defending Fillmore speaker. Strange
metamorphosis! Wonderful conversion!
But why is it, Are NOT the distinctive
features of the American order the same
row that they were then! There has ce:-
tainly beer no material change iu their prin-
ciples or policy. True the great distinctive
feature of Locofocosm is endorsed by the
American party-we allude to the "souat-
ter sovereignty" doctrine. Their resolves
on this subject are as follows:
