icy We are daily receiving letters from ac-
quaintanccs and others, asking us to forward
papers and documents, and assuring us that
the money should be forthcoming 1t is ex-
ceedingly unpleasant to us to refuse such re-
quests, and yet to grant them, and to attempt
to keep accounts for papers or documents,
would involve us in an expense for additional
clerk hire, which we cannot afford to pay, and
subject us to much certain loss. viii our
friends please reflect for a moment upon the
impracticability Of our granting their requests,
without making unreasonable sacrificesp We
cannot Keep accounts.J for papers or documents
lit is not reasonable to ask it. 1t would re-
quire us to employ half dozen clerks.

THE POLITICAL PaEss or PESHsrLv ANA ---Ac-
cording 70 the Philadelphia News, there are In
Pennsylvania thirty-fve papers for Fillmore and
Donelson, thirty one for Fremont and Dayton, two
for Fremont and Johnston, two for Fremont with
out committing themseles on the Vice Presidency,
and eighteen that have raised no Gag ut all though
all of them said TO be decidedly opposed to
Buchanan. The News omits the number Of Bu-
chanan papers. They probably exceed the num-
Der either for Fillmore or Fremont.-Bah. Sun.
We venture 10 assert that there are upwards Of
one hundred papers in Pennsylvania which are now
openly and zealously advocating the claims Of
James Buchanan for the Presidency WasAing-
tom Union.
Now, as you have pontured TO assert that
" there are upwards Of one hundred papers In
Pennsylvania, which are openly and zealously
advocating tho claims Of James Buchanan" we
venture" to deny the truth Of your state
ment and vocal for the proof You cannot,
in our opinion, give the names Of Jty papers
in Pennsylvania, which support James Blu
chanan. Will you venture " to make the e.
fort to publish the lists Give us the names J
And whilst you are about it, please give us the
results Of the efforts Of the Buchanan men in
New York to bug up Fremont paper, as stated
in the following extract of the Baltimore SUMS
New York correspondent published yesterday,
to-wit : 8an 1 TE9
at is currently rumored that the friends Of Mr..
Buchanan are negotiating the purchase Of one Of
our morning Journals, which is at present sailing
under the flag Of Col. Fremont The proprietors
Of the paper in question ask 100000, the buyers
offer $l70, 900. About $l40 900 cash, it is further
said, have already been raised.
If not secret, please also say whether the
price asked for the Fremont paper includes the
price for Frcmonts Withdrawal, and his sup
port of Buchanan? 1t seems to be generally
understood, that since the North American
boilers can't swallow Fremont and John
Hughes both together, the Fremont men are,
many Of them, willing to sell out and quit

AWFUL oONFLAGRATION IN
NEWARK,
Dre a dIfuI Destructiou OF Proper

DrC a dful Destruction Of Property.
We regret to learn, that yesterday about the
middle Of the day, most fearful oonfagration
visited our neighboring town, occasioning the
destruction of vast amount Of property. The
fire originated in the stable Ofthe Ohio House
and burnt to the ground that hotel and the
American House; leaving as our informant sta
ted, not evena wall stan1ing,-the stabling Of
the same-the Post Office and all the buildings
east of the American and north of the Court
House. The Offices about the Post Office, sue
ceeded in getting all the papers out safely, which
they were compelled to throw on the ground
within the Court House Square. The Court
House caught several times, and was deemed
in such danger that the county officers found
it necessary to hurry out all the papers and re-
cords Of the county, and pile them on the ground
for preservation.
Our informant, leaving so soon after this la
mentable occurrence, could give US no estimate
of the probable value Of the property destroyed,
but it must be very great. We sympothise
mrst deeply with our friends of Newark in their
terrible misfortune Statesman

a speech he was afraid it would be Democrat

Forgetting their Cue.

Some two months ago D. S. p, Of the New
York Tribune, in letter from Washington, re-
buked the opposition journals for giving currcn-
icy to the statements from Kansas to the effect
that the vast majority Of the people therelNere
Free State men, and would exclude Slavery as
soon as they had an opportunity to attend the
polls with safety. He said the propagation Of
such belief was doing more to destroy all their
chances Of success in the Presidential election
than all other causes combined, Many OF the
Black Republican journals took their cue from
this, and have since been attempting to destroy
the impression previously produced by publish
ing exaggerated and manufactured accounts ofthe
accessions Of Southerners and the expulsion o.
Free State men from the Territory. Still, o
journal of that stamp here and there forget thei1
cue once in a while. d., We imagine that the
Cleveland Herald forgot itself the other day
when it published the following result of con.
versation with Col Holiday: s..s a..l r..
"nThe most cheering news, however, that Col
Holiday brings, is that it is not true that the
Free State men are leaving Kansas. None have
|
left except few on Temporary absence. Business
at Lawrence, Topeka, and other points had re-
yiyed, and the Free State men generally were
in the very best of spirits, At Lawrence the
rebuilding Of the Free State Hotel was about to
be commenced, double. the dimensions of the
one destroyed by Sheriff Jones and his mob
The new Hotel will be go feet by 125. A fine
Unitarian Church is also being completed -
| The Border Rnfian and pro-slayery annoyances
prevented sowing and planting extensively, but
the crops on the ground were coming in finely
and would yield abundantly. Kansas needs
more enterprising, through going Free State set
tiers, and thousands should seek new homes
there the coming autamn. Taking all things
together, the Col. thought God might have
made better country than Kansas, but thinks
Henever did" -......... .... ..,
Mind this is from Black Republican, and is
given to the world through leading Black Re-
! publican medium, and is not a "locofoco fabrica-
tion," made for political effect 1t is not true
then, that the Free State men are leaving Kan
| Sas. None have lett except few who are tc
return again. AS we now have assurance from
the opposition that the Free State men, whom
they always represented to be in large major
ty in the Territory, have not left it except for
temporary purpose, what easier method coult
] there be to settle the whole Kansas question
than to repeal the obnoxious laws in the Ter
ritory, ascertain who has the right to vote, ant
protect them in that right. The Senate bill
now before the House, does this, and will with
out doubt, settle the question just as the Ere
mont men say they want it settled Then
why don't they consent to settle it? The an
sweris, that they want to keep the question o
