The charge mas been made and circulated
IN oil seriousness, that Mr.. Fremont is q
Catholic. We have never thought worth
while to contradict the report, crcumstan-
italy, because We did not presume it would
be employed, to any considerable extent, for
the purpose of doing him political harm.
But we lind that sedulous use is being made Of
1t by those who pretend not to care any thing
about the character of mans religion, and
It IS prejudiclng the minds Of people. Mr..
Fremont has right to be Catholic, or OF
any other religious persuasion, and we
should prefer not to nllude at all to the
question Of his particular tenets, but. under
existing circumstances, it is proper to estab.
ilsh the fact, as it is, for every body's un-
Outstanding.
In controversy between the New York
Tribune and Express, lately, all the facts
were brought out. We copy below one of
the Iribune's articles, which is sufficiently
conclusive upon the point, and need one
word more be said?

From the Correspondence Of the n. y. Tribune)
WASHINGTON, Monday, Aug. 4, l85G.-The
Democracy in Pcnnsy lvsnia have taken the
tremors. A Committee Of Mr. Buchanan's
leading friends were recently here to urge
several steps upon the Administration ~ nec-
essary to secure that aud other States against
the threatened desertion. Shannon's romo-
val was one Of the conditions, and il was ac-
complished, as the public knows. But they
have required other changes as imperatively
necessary, which give some trouble at head
quarters, and produce no little feeling among
the harmonious party in CouEEess.
They require nolie prosequis TO be entered
against Gov. Robinson and others, now 90
! outrageously imprisoned in Kansas under
false charges of treason the dismissal or re-
signatinn Of Judge Lecompte, and finally the
adoption of Mr.. Dunn's bill, or something
like it, with certain notifications. Those
facts demonstrate how urgent must be the
necessities Of our opponents, and to what ex-
tremlty they are reduced, when so much will
lngness is manifested to sacrifice every point
upon which the Democracy havo heretofore
tenaciously stood. In yielding shannon, the
President surrendered something Of person
al sensibiity, and nothing but the consider
alton of hoping to get the doubtful sanction
OF political success induced him to give I'D
an adverse impulse. Since he has gone so
far, he may yet go farther.
Tuesday, August 1.-The President sent a
messageto the Senate, stating, in reply to a
resolution, that no order was issued from the
War Department to any officer commanding
IN Kansas TO dispense any unarmed meeting
OF the people Of the Territory, or prevent
]. hem 10y military power from assembling
From the correspondence transmitted, it ap-
pears that the Secretary is not satisfied that
the circumstances were such as to Justify Col.
Sumner in employing military force to dis
perse the Assembly at Topeka, and has call
ed upon him to communicate on that point,
1T not yotfully appearing that the case was one
upon which. by his instructions, he was au-
| thorizeu To act
