THE NORFOLK DUEL between DR.. Perkins and
some unknown person, was caused ny the eircu
lation of several ISLANDERS against Dr. p. while ne
was in Williamsburg. Upon returning to Norfolk
he punished the sanderer to the amount OF one
emf on the arm, one cut on the bead, and pune
ture in the abdomen, and was about finishing him
when the cry of FOUL and very ample apology
saved his life.
The Norfolk papers say that the unknown COM
blatant went there to live, from Richmond, few
weeks before the fever. 1t is likely that he has
found that it is not SO easy to "ve" in Norfolk as

Tl,n Efret SteD.

The great Philadelphia Republican con-
vention was the first act of an aroused and
inceDsed people, TO re-establish freedom rs
the spirit and policy of the nation. Ever
since this government was formed, the COM
pact and influential class of slayholders,
have been slowly gathering into their own
hands all the means for extending their ter
ritory. and increasing their power. The
free north, busy on its farms, in its shops
and at its looms, had scarcely marked the
stealthy progress of the slave power, as it
wound one coil after another around the gi-
ant limbs of the Republic. But when at
length, all disguise being thrown of, the
shareholders attempted to seize on all the
territories, the people suddenly awokc from
their lethargy. The Philadelphia conven-
ton assembled, and its words of truth, jus
tice and liberty have already sent terror to
the hearts of the slave drivers and their
confederates. They tremble in their official
seats. Douglas no longer threatens to Sub
DUE" but "roaring gently as sucking dove"
he comes forward with bill for the pacii-
cation of Kansas, which repeals some of the
Internal Missouri laws which have been ex
tended over it, which yields up wholly the
squatter sovereignty doctrine, and in fact
goes as far as it can without giving Kansas
a chance to bea free state. The end is not
yet. We shall see more softening down on
the part of these traitors to liberty. They
see in the enthusiasm which pervades the
republican ranks, the forerunner of that ven
geance which will soon overtake them.

Organize.

The Fremont Republican Club have, by
resolution published in our paper to-day in
vited tho Republicans of each Township in
the County to meet at the usual places of
holding elections, at o'clock, July Slst
and organize. When organization in the
several townships is completed and officers
reported, the Club here will upon timely re-
request, furnish speakers to discuss before
them the questions involved in the cam
paign.
Our county will be thoroughly canvassed
by those who @are held together by the CO
hesive power of public plunder,' alias the
Pro-Slavery slaves of the Nigger-drivers.
And it should be borne in mind, that to be
idle now, is criminal, we might as well sur
render at discretion as to fold our arms and
only sit down and think; ACTION is THE
WORD NOW. We believe sincerely that
with the exertion usually put forth by the
opposition, Sandusky County can be fully
and completely redeemed next fall, from
the hands of the spoilers, and we hope this
prospect will stir every lover of freedom to
ACTION.

The highly important issue of admitting
Mr.. Archer to his scat as the Representative
of the Seventh District of Illinois, was lost
by the carelessness of Bliss, of Ohio, who
went TO dinner without pairing, and lost his
vote. King, of N. Y, voted with the Ad-
ministration.
At the Democratic Caucus of Members OF
Congress on W9dncsdaySight, it was gen
eralIy conceded that the election of Bu-
chanan depended on Pennsylvania, and that
success there was uncertain; Consequently
it was resolved that they must raise hun
dred thousand dollars extraordinary fund for

The above extracts from the Democrat

pursuing systemized course of falsehoods,

Your preaching such doctrines will not avail

is all powerful. Talk of the Messenger
