The Candidates.

The different dispatches relative to the nom
nations made last week by the Republican and
Anti Fillmore Conventions, having preplexed
some, who say they do not yet precisely I'M
derstand what was done by these Conventions,
we shall explain, The Anti Fillmore Conven-
ton was composed of men the delicate suscep-
abilities of whose patriotism utterly forbade
their endorsing the nomination OF Fillmore.
They concluded that Mr.. Banks, Of Massa-
chusetts was infinitely preferred by the peo-
pie Of the United States for President to Mil
lsrd Fillmore, more deserving of the position,
and better capacitated 10 fill it. So this body
of wise and patriotic and politically able-to-
see-through a-grind stone gentlemen, nomi-
mated Mr. Banks for the Presidency, and Mr..
Johnston, of Pa, for the Vice Presidency. As
might well be supposed, this Convention made
these nominations for the purpose of present
ing them to the Republican Convention, hoping
that Convention would appreciate the immense
importance of the Banks Convention, and it's
influence in controlling the votes of the people,
and at once form a coalition, endorsing if
not both candidates, at least one. So the
Anti Fillmorians sent delegation to the Re-
publican Convention to assist in carrying out
their objects.
But judge of the surprise, the Indignation,
the shocked condition of the Anti Fillmoreites,
when it was understood this Delegation was
not even treated with decent respect-that it
had received no attention--that the Republl-
cans actually regarded the Anti Fillmoreites
as too unimportaHt to be.worth counting up, or
even thr0wing bone to for the purpose OF
keepiHg;i5' quiet: The Republicans unani-
mously nominated Col. Fremont for the Pres
idency, and afterwards MrDayton for the Vice
Presidency. The Anti-Fillmeretes ripped
and swore in a very unchristianlike manner.
Mr.. Banks withdrew his name-but Mr..
Johnston too hastily accepted. Then the
Anti Fillmoreites choking down their wrath,
endorsed the nomination of Fremont. So their
ticket stands Fremont and johnson, while
the Republican ticket is Fremont and Day
ton.
The Anti-Fillmoreites were seceders from
the national American Convention. But after
the Anti-Fillmore nominations, there was q
secession from their ranks. These secession
lists from seceders- nominated Com. Stockton
for the Presidency. We have thus four can
didates for the next Presidency. We are par
ticularly rejoiced that Stockton has at last Sc
cured nomination for the Presidency. He
has been after it for years, apparently under the
full conviction that so famous man as himsel
need only be nominated by some party, to
ride triumphantly into the Presidential chair
We have slight fears, however, that the ship
he commands will not safely reach port 1t is
anentirely new vessel, but wants proper caulk-
ing badly, and her sails can never catch pop
uiar breeze. But viva la Fillmore, Buchanan,
Fremont and Stockton The People are rep

o. Gen. Whitfield, of Kansas, las return
ed to Washington, and dispatch informs us
that he says if Government would withdraw
the U. S. troops from Kansas, peace would be
better preserved. Considering that these
troops were recently called upon to stop
Whitfeld's operations at the head of a band
of marauders, this suggestion of his is partic-
ularly modest. We presume he means that il
the troops are withdrawn, the Missourians
will soon chase every Free State man out OIL
Kansas, and thus restore peace.

The Balloon Ascension.

Mr.. Brooks has his mammoth balloon par
TALLY blown up at Apollo Hall, putting it in
complete order for the ascension next Thurs
day. 1t is splendid air-versel, entirely new,
made in the most substantial manner, and with
valves constructed by the seronaut in person
on principle entirely his own. We promise
the people there will be no disappointment,
wind. The ascension will be made from the
lot near SetChelPs stable, as the services OF a
large gas pipe can there be obtained. His
other ascension was made from the upper part
of the city, and he experienced much difficult
ty in obtaining sufticiency of gas owing to
the distance Of this point from the gas works.
While the huge balloon is being inflated, the
Druids will entertain the assembly. We hope
this time the outsiders in the neishborhood
will not outnumber the insiders. A balloon
ascension can only be made at very heavy ex-
pense, and as it is one of the most beautiful
sights offered to the gaze of men, and person.
ally perilous to the eronaut, we hope all who
go to see this ascension, will be generous
enough to pay their quarter. 1t requires a
we'll filed enclosure to even pay expenses,
much less to reward the eronaut for his risk
and enterprise.
| Mr.. Brooks is experienced in his business,
and is personally clever gentleman. His
former ascension here gave such satisfaction,
that he has been repeatedly invited to make
another. Since his other ascension, he has
lost the costly balloon used on tnat occasion,
and had others seriously injured. We trust
he will be able to make up portion of his
losses here. On this occasion he will be ac-
companied in his trip by citizen of Evans
vile.

chloroform to the quadruped, which soon be-
came gentle and lamblike in which state the
shoes were put on without difficulty.

| DEAR SIR: We have had a stir
ring time for the last few weeks. All our
friends in Kansas, and the border ruffians have
been, and some of them still are, in the field
We assembled at the call of the Marshal and
Sheriff to join posse to assist in serving writs,
Iabollshing naisances, &c, all of which was
done. South Carolina was in at the begin
ming and will be in at the end of a contest, of
which God only knows what will be the ter
mlnation. We had no fighting, but it was
owing to the cowardice not the forbearance of
the Abolitionists. The young men of South
Carolina bore themselves in manner worthy
of their State; they planted their flag on the
top OF the first fortress or quasi fortress in the
capital of Abolitionism; they will be in at the
death of that monster
my opinion is that the South will be stirred
by the transactions of these few weeks. and
will come up with men and money. The lat
ter is particularly wanted to subsist the men,
In few months, in my opinion, there will
not be an abolitionist left in Kansas; they will
be swept with a clean broom. Then the war
will be carried elsewhere if war we are to have.
"The Southern men have all selected their
land, and seem to be well pleased with Kan
sas. Indeed. it is beautiful country. Vir-
ginia will now awaken. Men from all the
South are daily arriving in Kansas. We are
raising money and provisions to sustain them.
'It will gives me pleasure to render any
service for South Carolina here or their friends
at home.
IL would give you the details of our action
for the last few weeks but this you will see in
the papers. Yours truly, Xxx"
