Rather Laughable.

SAM FRANCIS, albeit good Fremonter, as
every person knows, don't know anything about
politics in his personal friendships Sam knew
John Van Buren, years~ago, when John was re :
spectacle and had repu tation, and hearing that
John was on his way to Milwaukee liz custody
Of District Attorney Sharpstein, as one who ow-
ed service to the Sham Democracy, concluded
that common humanity required him to see John
aud give him kind word He met John at
the cars, and John evidently felt better at seeing
him, and SAM warming up with the ceremony
of introducing large delegation consisting of
hree persons going up from here to hear John
speak, concluded that he would feel still better
to have a little demonstration from the crowd
And So as the last bell rung and the cars were
moving off, Sam flew round among his friends
and begged them to cheer. There are very few
persons here but would do almost any thing TO
oh'ige Sam, and when he took off his wool hat,
and swung it energetcally round his head at
least half a dozen followed his example Hoo
rah Hoorah Hoorah shouted they, the
ceremony evidently growing more distastefu
with every cheer, until it came to the final one,
lowed the dose with the utmost dstate, could
stand it no longer and as the last "Hoorah"
broke from his lips "for Fremont by Cd" he
added, much to the amusement of the crowd, and
no doubt to the deep sorrow of Prince John, who
is known TO be picusy inclined.

A. injustos 70 them dArksns hstoEy's page,
De true to the great who are living 10 day
That is decidedly the greatest piece OF
impudence we have yet seen. The great
est injustice ever done to Henry Clay was
the false, wilful and utterly base Islander
concoc,ed by James Buchanan. II wouis
be pretty kind ofatonement TO Henry Clay
to reward his malignant and unmaniy de
famer with the very Office which his defa'
nations prevented the gallant statesman
Of Kentucky from obtaining. II is not sur
prising that the supporters of Buchanan
should make any propositions however pre-
porterous or insulting, but that they should
propose to the friends Of Henry Clay to
vote for Buchanan for the purpose Of re-
pairing an injustice done TO that noble and
lanented character, is certainly the crosses
instance OF impotence which We remember
Perhaps there are few Clay Wings in tins
free States who will vote for Buchanan
but they will hardly do SO on the ground 0.

object of their political and personal attach
ment.

NJ Hpehsnsn,a supporters.

Mr.. Buchanan is the candidate Of the till
busters Of the South because Of the buca-
niering manifesto which he published at
Ostend; he is warmly supported BY all the
bo,as rufians of Missouri, because he has
never said word in condemnation of their
atrocities in Kansas, and they judge from
his pledges that be will adopt the same
policy which has teen pursued by Pierce;
Gov. Wise, Of Virginia, is his ardent adgo-
cate, because his election would quadrupe
the price Of negroes, and the doughfaces and
of6ce-holders Of the North are straining
every nerve for his election, because that
event would secure them the spoils they
now have, or give them q chance for rich
er share in new division Of the plumber.
Such 10 the beautiful kind Of fusion party
by which Mr.. Buchanan is supported, and
vet the pro-slavery editors and orators, and
other kinds of electioneerers are very much
exercised, because there il coalition Of
the homes, men of all parties in the free
States, to wipe out the corruptest admin
istration that ever disgraced or endangered

losves and fishes which they already feel
gliding from their grasp, viii not deter the
people from prosecuting to the fullest ex-
tent the reformation upon which they have
determined.

in glowing terms. Itwas asserted that his

FruitIes. Eferts

In aiiusion to a recent meeting, in Ia.
aeuil Hall, OF Wings who have determined
to support Fremont and Dayton, the Boston
Atlas makes the following remarks in rela-
ton to that small minority OF dissatisfied in
diyiduals who, there as elsewhere, are fruit
lessly endeavoring to prevent the masses OF
the OLD Wig party from supporting the
Republican candidates.
"a few gentlemen who consider them
selves to be trustees of the remains OF the
Wing party, are fully determined that the
assets shall not be employed in behalf OF
the Peoples candidate Il was for this
reason that the Fremont meeting filled
them with CONSERVATION and rage. The
Central Committee issued its pronuncia-
nenio against 1t; personal efforts were
everywhere made to prevent the people
from attending it; and its character has
since been siudiously misrepresented. No
nomination fer the Presidency ever OBJ
lained, even in Boston, greater popularity
than Col. Fremout's. The attempt is studi-
ously to BE made u change the tide of public
ceiling By systematic intimidation, By ridi-
cUle, By fsisehood, and by the pressure of
pecuniary and personal considerations
Genilemea, we tell you beforehand, that
the game will not work. The time has
gone by tor that. Col. Fremont will re-
ceive not only the vote OF Massachusetts,
but the vote OF Boston"

The Council Bluffs ChronotyTe says the
speech Of w. M. Stone, one OF the Repue'
lican candidates for Presidential Eleetor, IN
that place on Tuesday evening OF last week
was listc ned to with deep and earnest inter
e., by large sumber of people. 1t car
ried conviction to the minds OF many, whe
before had been hesitating and doubtful
that the Republican party alone occupies
true constitutional grounds. Mr.. Stone
showed that the principles proclaimed BY
the Republican party are Identical with
those held by Washington, Jefferson and
Madison, and that in laboring to resist the
extension of slavery, it is bur carrying out
the policy which even Douglas and Bueh-
anan supported as recently as 1854.
Two things operate fayorably for salts
factory expression of the sentiments of the
people a. the approaching elections. The
facts submitted for their consideration were
never efa palmer character, and they have
seldom, il ever, been more thoroughly ana :
lived and explained by both spoken and
written Arguments than during the present
canvass. The issue discussed does not in
yolve any OF those abstract considerations
which tire the patience of hearers and tax
the ingenuity Of speakers, The record has
been made up by our sdversaries, and the
enormity Of the facts which j, embraces,
could not be darkened by any species OF ex-
agserstion, even il the Republicans were
disposed TO exasgera,e their hideousness.-
In ADDITION also TO this thorough discussion
of the piainest facts, We believe that al nc
previous election were the body OF the pec'
pie more earnestly interested than at tbs
present time. We think this is particular
ly the case as regards our own county, sn'
from it we augur the haPpiest results.

Judge Hall, who has been electioneering
for his brother A. Hall, the pro-slavery can
didate for Congress in the first district,
openly approves all that the Pierce adminis-
,ration has done in regard to Kansas, and
all the acts of the border rufhans. OF q
speech which he recently made at Council
Bluffs, the CAroaotype says
"He openly justified the course Of the ad-
ministration in Kansas, and argued that the
destruction OF the Free State Hotel, and the
printing offices at Lawrence, was necessary
and justiiiabe. He thought it was treason
10 form Free State Constitution for Kan
sas, and was as jealous in defending Dor.

We really hope that Hall will continue
his labers in these parts until the election.
Nothing could help the Republican cause

That's the way they all speak hen they
utter their real sentiments. The two men
by whom Iowa is at present misrepresen,ed,
one in the House and one in the Senate,
have voted with the border ruf6an party on
all the questions relating to Kansas. and
Hall voted against the expulsion OF Brooks,

Nh. EpIroR:-
At meeting of Independent Fire En-
CINE and Hose Co. held Monday evening
July 25th, the following resolution was
adopted
RESOLVED, That q committee of five be
selected to present a petition to the proper
ty holders and business men Of the city of
Davenport, calling their attention to the
organization of the Company and its OBJ
jeets, and soliciting their aid for the pur-
pose Of procuring the necessary apparatus
for the extinguishing Of fires.
To The citizens and property holders of the
city Of Dauenport:-
We the undersigned, a committee ap.
pointed at meeting called for the purpose
Of eFecting fire organization in the city
Of Davenport to solicit aid in carrying out
our purpose. would respectfully solicit your
cooperation and contribution in case the
city should not deem it proper to vote US
the necessary means.
Our city is fast increasing in wealth and
Importance; its population now numbe ring
nearly 1900, and a large portion of our
residences and stores being built of the
most destructble materially and yet we are
still without any organization or engines
for extinguishing fires; we have the materi-
al here, enterprising energeti tic young men; ;
all that we wish is material aid, if not from
the city, from you who are most deeply inter-
ested in the matter, many Of you having
thousands of dollars invested not more than
half covered by insurance, every vestige Of
which might, as things stand now, be swept
away in a few hours,-with no oreAaized
system or apparatus to stay the devouring
element. The experience Of the last few
months furnishes Us with sufficient facts
rand facts cannot ie) to base our request
upon. The destructive FIRE on Front street
the loss Of Adams. and the total destruction
of the property of various other citizens,
the interest upon which would be sufi-
Gent to answer our purpose fully, demon
strate your want and ineficiency in this
respect.
We then as old 6remen (willing to enter
upon that arduous duty AGAIN. would re-
commend TO you the immediate establish
ment OF an efficient organization to provide
against such calamties in future, and that
provision be made for supply of water by
The establishment of cisterns in the more
prominent points Of the city at a distance
from the river. Submitting to you also the
high rates Of insurance that are now being
paid here as further argument that you
should move on this matter.

"We need hardly say to any well-in-

that the State of New York will give Free
