GrThe Philadelphia Leagsr Significantly
asks what it was that gave such prominence
TO the name of Fremont, in the Philadelphia
Convention, and then adds: at certainly
was not political service. Nor coul1 it be
superior devotion to the principles of the
Republican party, for there were plenty Of
men in that Convention who excelled him
in BOTH" Fact. Will the peculiar friends
of Fremont undertake to deny that they
have, in this instance, given one of the broad
est and most direct endorsements to the doc
trines Of availability that can be found in
the political records of the country? Their
whole policy seems TO have been to bring
forward man who, having no political ante
cedents, is not liable political criticism. The
idea that the American people will place such
a man, however amiable and worthy he may
be as a private individual, in the Executive
Chair of this great Republic, is simply absurd.
Intelligence judgment prudence and expo
rience, are required in the administration OF
the qovernm ent for the next four years.
These are admirably combined in that dis
tinguished statesman, JAMES BUCHANAN, as
has been time and again acknowledged by
those who, from party considerations. oppos-
ed his election.

Excruciating-very!


The Abolition papers perfectly bristle with
daggcIs over the announcement that PRESTON
S. BReoKs is to address a Democratic Ratifi-
cation meeting at Charleston, South Carolina.
This is certainly an awful state of things
But suppose they were to announce that
CHARLES SUMNER was to address Fusion
Ratification Meeting at Boston. Think ye,
gentle reader, they would consider that they
had outraged the moral sense of community
by so doing? Not bit of it. Yet it is diff
cult for us to see why the one announcement
would not be in just about as bad taste as
the other; for the part that both SUMNER
and Brooks took in the late disgraceful af.
fair at the Capitol, is about equally bal
anced, on the score of justifiability. II
Brooks carried his resentment to the most
violent extremes, it was whilst smarting un-
der the abuse and insult of his antagonist, and
goaded by passion aroused to the highest
pitch Of excitement. SUMNER, on the other
hand, was the aggressor, and his attack was
theresult of cool and calm premeditatioH.-
For the wrong that he perpetrated there Is
net the slightest shadow of excuse.
This display of tender sensibility on the
part of the endorsers and abettors of SUM-
NER, will not, we imagine, produce any very
startling sensation in the moral or political
world. Mr.. BROOKS will probably deliver
himself of his speech at Charleston, and this
dirty world of ours will, probably, wag on in
its quiet journey, pretty much the same as
it has done since old Father ADAM walked up
one bright, sunny morning, and found him.
self its sole lord and possessor.

keen it Before the people.

Keep it before the people, that nine out Of
every ten Of the men that now call them
selves Republicans, were, in 1854, Know
Nothings, and went in for depriving all for
eigners and Catholics of holding office.
Keep it before the people, that these very
same men have, within the last year, chang
ed their name and tactics, and are now court
ing the favor Of foreigners, with the hope of
getting their votes to help them into power.
Keep it before the people, that the Repub-
licans in 1854, werein favor of the Maine
Liquor Law, and were opposed to the Ger
mans drinking beer, &c.
Keep it before the people, that the Repub
licans have abandoned the Maine Law, and
Temperance question, with the view of getting
German and other votes.
Keepit before the people, that the North
ern Know Nothings, assisted in the nomina-
ton of Mr.. FILLMORE for President, and
have since changed their name, and have in
a most shameful manner repudiated him, and
are now going for FREMONT.
Keep it before the people, that the Black
Republicans are nothing more nor less than
sectional Abolition party, who think "the
Union is not worth supporting in connection
with the South"
Keep it before the people, that the Black
Republicans are doing all they can to alien
ate and prejudice one half Of the pc opie oil
the country against the other half, so they
NAV find an excuse "to let the Union slide.''
Keep it before the people, that it is the
duty of every lover of the Union to lrown
Indignantly" ON all attempts of demsgogues
and traitors to form sectional parties, which
would, in all probability, lead to revolution
and deprive us of all the blessings bequeath-
ed to us by our forefathers.
Keep it before the people, that the Black
Republicans, their abettors and emissaries,
are in the habit of manufacturing and tell
ing all manner Of lies on the President, and
the Democracy generally, in relation TO the
outrages in Kansas.
Keep it before the people, that the Black
Republicans hate and abuse the Democratic
party because its members have the moral
power and honesty to contend for the Con-
stitution, and for equal justice being done
to all classes of the citizens of the Union.
Keep it before the people, that the leaders
of the Black Republican party, can see noth-
ing but evil in the Constitution, because II
tolerates and protects negro slavery, and op-
poses their wicked designs.
Keep it before the people, that the Black
Republican leaders are in favor Of liberatine
the slaves of the South, so that they may
emigrate to the free States and work side by
side with poor laboring white men at TWEEN
ty-fve cents day, and receive their pay IL
old clothes at that.
Keep it before the people, that Black Re-

Keep it before the people, that the lead

The Kansas subscriptions.

The Troy Wing calls upon the subscribers
for Kansas to look out where their money
goes, as it does not always get into good
hands When Ireland was in trouble, thou
sands Of dollars were subscribed, but Ireland
got nothing When KossUTH was here, one
hundred thousand dollars was subscribed for
Hungary, and KossUTH Scrip issued for part
Of it but KossUTH tells us that he left the
country "almOst penniless," and Hungary
got nothing from America, and is more OPP
pressed than ever. The Wig says:
Who believes that any considerable portion
OF the money now being subscribed "for Kan
sas" will ever be sent there? IL will be expend-
ed, IL expended at all, in paying off itinerant
lecturers aud % freedom shriekers," whose bust
ness il is, not TO fight "border rufiians, but en-
terrain gullible public in the middle and New

out of his claim. The whole mining inter.
est Of California was up in arms about it, and
Fremont dared not even attempt to secure

TIME CHANGED.
REMEMBER THEf7TH JULY

REMEMBER THE17TH OF JULY!
The State Central Committee have chang
ed the day Of the Ratification Meeting here
tofore announced by US, from the 18th inst,
to the nth DAY OF JULY NEXT
This change is made, we are informed, in
consequence Of the 10Th inst. being the day
on which several local conventions through
out the State are to meet, thus rendering it
impossible for the many TO attend the ratih-
cation meeting who would otherwise be pres
ent. 1t is desirable that all who wish to meet
on an occasion of so much interest should
have the opportunity to do so. We are,
therefore, inclined to think that the post
ponement will meet with general approval.

change, and in the mean time combine their
efforts to secure monster meeting on the
