Regiment of Democrats COElins
Home.

The following Declaration of Indepen-
dence of the Democrats of Louis county,
N. Y, appears in the Martinsburg RepM6-
Hcan, Aug. 18th:
"DEcLARATIoN OF 1NDENDENcE.-The
undersigned, citizens of West Turin, who
have heretofore sustained the Demo-
cratic party and its leaders, and who yet
retain the desire to adhere to the true prin-
ciples of the Democratic faith, finding our
selves unable to coincide with the princi-
pies laid down and prescribed for our flu
ture action by the recent Convention at
Cincinnati, believing those principles TO be
a departure not only from the spirit and
letter of our constitution, as construed by
its patriotic trainers, but a manifest perver-
sion of the Democratic creed, which is bas-
ed upon the doctrine engraven on every
page of that glorious compact, which Sc
cures as well the right of indepedent speech
and free discussion through the press, and
in public debate, upon all political issues,
as the equal welfare of every citizen; and
believing that the difficulties and outrages
now transpiring in Kansas, have originated
in the perversion of the aforesaid principles,
which have been so long the guiding star
of the democratic party, especially of the
the Free States; and believing further that
the future safety and success of all who hon
estly adhere to that creed will be sacrificed
by the adoption of the ruling principle
embodied in the Cincinnati platform, 10
wit: that slavery in future is to be nation
al, while the noble cause for which our an
cesters fought and trirlnphed is to be sec
tional, thereby opening the door for the
great oppression and tyranny in the free
States themselves; we therefore stand rea-
dy and pledge ourselves to vote for no cam
didate standing before the people on that
platform, and enforcing such an anti-De
mocratic principle; but on the contrary,
will cordially, unite, for the time being. at
least, to elect candidates known to be OPP
posed to extenting the curse of slavery in
to free Territory, and in favor of giving the
administration at Washington into hands
which will accord with the constitution in
the design to extend freedom and not
slavery" -atf. alnr
Following this declaration are the names
of two hundred and fifty-one Democrats of
Lewis county, who have concluded that
Fremont and not Buchanan is the man for
the present emergency. The Republican
says that Lewis county is good for fifteen
hundred Fremont majority. r..ai rlr.

was the first journal in the State that came
out for Fillmore, and is almost the last to

Our only chance to lick the Buchaneers in

other reason which has influenced us in this
course is, 1t pleases lie negro Stare dripers

Mr.. Whitney, the Fillmore elector in the
Danville district, publishes a letter in the
Urbana Union, declining to run. His rea-
sons are thus clearly given:
81 believe that there is greater issue
pending between the people of this country
at this time which demands instantaneous
action, namely, that of the extension or non
exteneion of slavery, and that when this
issue is decided, there will be ample time
to assert the principles of the "American"
party; moreover, firmly believe the leaders
of the American" party are-undesignedly
perhaps-playing into the hands of the
Nebraska or Democratic patry, and that
while they cannot, by any possibility, hope
to carry the State for Fillmore, they may
strengthen the vote for Buchanan in the
State. These things | believe, and so be-
lieving, announce to all whom it may con-
cern, that am not candidate for elector
on the "Amelican ticket" '.

SAD AFFAIR IN LowELI.--A serious
personal collision occurred between John c.
Treadwell, well known citizen of Lowell,
and his son William, young man of 25
years, last Friday evening, which resulted
in blow from the son, which fractured
the skull of his father and endangered his
life.
The detailed accounts of the affair 90 far
to excuse the son, in showing much passion
and indiscretion on the part of the father.
1t appears that niece of Mr.. Treadwell in
the early part of the day cautioned his son
against making use of vulgar or profane
language in the presence of his visitors
and so fearful was he that his caution, had
not been needed, that when the family to-
gether with the visitors were seated at the
supper table, he said to hisson, "William,
have you used any profane language to-
dayw The reply was, a don't know that
l have" The father then asked the h1s-
band of the neice if he had heard him 1.-THE
sony use any profane language; his reply
was, in substance, 'tI don't know as that |
have much" Thereupon the father pro-
ceeded to administer to the son homily
upon the enormity of the sin of swearing,
greatly to his modification.
The sequel is told as follows @The
mother attempted to change the conversa-
ton, and incidentally the name of little
daughter of hers who had died some two
or three weeks previous, and who was a
great faYorite of the son, was mentioned,
when he (the sony exclaimed, "for Gods
sake, mother, don't mention her holy name
here" In moment the father arose from
the table, seized the son by the collar, pull
led him into another room, exclainling, 4
will not have such profane language used
in my house. and closed the door after
him. Loud and angry words ensued; a
blow was heard, and still another; the son
was heard to exclaim, for Gods sake, IA
ther do not strike me agaia.' The parties
then entered the room; the son was in the
act of raising himself from the floor, and
the father in the act of inhicting another
blow, which was warded off by the son,
and he then arose and struck his father one
blow with his clenched hand upon the
head, and the consequence was fractured
skull"
Young Treadwell was arrested, but has
been admitted to bail in the sum of s5 600

AMoNsrER EsTABLrsiIMENT.-The prea-

that Of NJ. Godillot, in Paris. He EMPLOYS
sixty-six sewing machines, kept in motion
by a steam engine of nine horse power,
and which sewed all the overcoats in the
Crmean army. The superintendent is the
Emperor's tailor, Dussantoy, who has in

fifteen suits at once, almost with the rapid

one thousand women and girls are constan
