Speech Of Mr. Buchanan.
LANCASTER, June f!

LANCASTER, June 8, 1856.
The Keystone Club of PHILADELPHIA. ac
companied by Beck's Band, arrived here
on Sunday, a; 1 O'Clock a. M, this morn
ing, and paid visit to the Hon James Blu
chanan, at Wheatland, accompanied by a
procession Of citizens to the number of
two or three hundred. Upon their arrival
at Wheatland, VIM. B. Rankin, Esq. Pres
ident OF the Club. was introduced to Mr..
Buchanan, and said that on behalf of the
keystone Club, over which he had the hon
or of presiding. he congratulated him as
the nations choice, aiding that tho work
which was but begun, they intended to car
ry on until victory should crown their eff
forts:
GENTLEMEN OF THE KEYSTONE CLUB
give you hearty welcome to my abode.
| congratulate you not on my nomination,
but upon the glorious privilege of being
citizens of our great Republic. Your SUI
periority over the people of other coun-
tries. has been fully demonstrated by the
conduct OF vast concOurse assembled du-
ring the past week at Cincinnati. Upon
any similar occasion in Europe, the volun-
iary expression of the people would have
been drowned in marshall music, and their
actions controlled by an army wi ban
ners. How unlike the spectacle at Cincin
natl where delegates from the people If the
different Staes met in Convention under
protection Of the Cons,i ution and laws.
and tremendously deliberated upon sub
Jects Of vital importance to the country.
Gentlemen, two weeks since should have
made longer speech. but now / have
been placed upon n platform of which |
most heartily approve and that can speak
Tor me: Being the Representative of the
great Democratic party, and not simply
James Buchanan, | must square my con
duct according to the platform Of that par
ty, and insert no new plank, nor take one
from it. That platform is sufficiently broad
and national for the whole Democratic mar
ty. This glorious party, now more than
ever has demonstrated that i is the true
conservative party of the Constitution Of
the Union.

The "Kill-em" Doctrine.

In the Pittsburg convention. a few
months ago, after prayer by the Rev. Mr..
ho .Tns RR.v.Msisw of Connecticut,
said he waSiA favor of using firearms, and
fighting for freedom in Kansas
Rev. Mr.. Chandler said he believed that
Sharpe's rifles We're the best peace makers;
there was no danger too many of them wo' d
be introduced into Kansas
Rev. Mr. Lovejoy was willing to 90 eli
Their as captain or a private. He would
use Sharpe's rifles and fire aciM good aim .
In the North Church. soon after the Rev
Henry Ward Beecher said
'Ihold IL to be an everlasting disgrace TO
shoot at a man and not hit him.
s On the same occasion, the same reverend
gentleman said he had never hear of but
one compromise which he thought was a
good one;' and that was contained IN an
swer which he alleged Robinson, the bogus
Governor Of Kansas, had made to Cover
nor Shannon's demand for a surrender of
the Sharpe's rifles held by the people of
Lawrence; which answer he stated to be-
We'll, sir, in regard to the rifles | pro-
pose to comprehensive will keep the wea-
pons ourselves, but gire you tire contents'
That compromise, continued the Rev.
Mr.. Beecher,-'I think would work.
The New Haven Pollodium saws:
The champions of freedom will see that
the slave holders are kept busy-and they
qcW see that tie sloyes are liberated and PIT
IN condition to rake care Of Themselves
The Lowell Courier says:
Brooks ought to be shot down like a
beast
III one of the churches of Detroit, last
Sunday evening. "a fearless and faithful
minister of CHRIsT'-as the Tribune terms
him-preached an abolition sermon, in
which he remarked as follows:

reasons. Iscould see tie halls Of Congress

TFWe copy the following article fro

EE-We copy the following article from
the Louisville Jou-nol, in reference to the
recent fire at the States Prison.
We learn from Jetfersonville that none
of the prisoners escaped during the fire at
the penitentiary. All except about thirty
were let out in their cells this morning and
went to work as usual Tie others were
those who revolted ON Monday, and they
were subsequently taken out and punished
Mr.. Patterson observed that Eaton, the
ringlcader, on being taker out, had some
thing in his pocket which had the appear
ancc of large knife. Eaton denied hav-
lag knife, but when Mr.. p. insisted that
he had a knife, he threw ii through the iron
CRATES. 1t was af erwagds picked up, and
he doubtless would have used it on the per-
son detailed to punish him.
4 Two citizens Of Jacksonville, who assist
el at the fire, put Oh pantaloons worn by
the convicts. The guard Of the prison were
not aware Of it, and on seeing them run
oat, mis'ook them for prisoners attempting
to escape, and they were very severely
handled. One of them received a sever.
wound in the head with Il slung shot.
The Franklin Fire Company of this city
had their Hose Carriage badly broken in
going down hill.
Since the above, we have received the
following note from Governor Wright:
To tie Editors cf'he LouiseiHe Journol:
Misunderstanding present at the late
fire at the States Prison, | cannot do less
than return 10 the fire companies of Louis
vile and Jacksonville, for their prompt.
efficient, and untiring exertions in suppress
ing the flames, the respect and gratitude
of the people of the State.
: BIZ their cxertions more tllan a hundred
thousand dollars of property was saved
The loss is not more than four thousand
dollars in the hospital building. In prop
erty, not more than from five to ten thou
sand. Tee citizens acted most noblv.
L hope hereafter a more enduring testi-
monial will be rendered to these laborious
a1l Efficient firemen. 81 far as We know
no; one convict has escaped, and many of
them rendered efficient service in extin-
gushing the flames

MATT WARD.-It has afforded tho NJ
troit hdrerf'ser deal of qualification to
state. and to repeat several times, that Matt
Ward, of Louisville school-mas.er murder
noterlety. was a member from Texas ofthe
Cincinnati convention. Of course the
statement is destitute of truth. There was
an old and very respectable gentleman from
Texas of the name of Ward in the conven-
ton, but he bore about as much rescmb-
lance to Matt Ward, formerly If Louisville.
as he OF the advertiser bears 10 passable
specimen OF human corporality-and no

To1rcHING A TENDER Spor.--A few dav

TOUCHING TENDER SPor.--A few days
since the Springfield Argus asked what
was to be done with the money the Kan
sas lecturers are collecting under the name
of aid for Kansas The Boston Telegraph,
a republican print, replied that it was none
of he Argus' business, and the argus re-
joins:
1T would seem that we touched tender
point when we inquired about the destina-
ton of the Kansas fund The black repub-
lican papers evidently don'tlike to tell Are
we right in supposing that none of this
money collected as Kansas aid will ever
go to Kansas? that it is used as vast cleo
tioneering or 'corrupting fund in the Pres
idential canvass? Or will General Pom
eroy and the other peculiar Kansas patriots
pocket it?'

WONDERFUL DISCOVERY. The London
Times of May 26h contains letter from a
British naval officer, dated Serial. Africa,
giving an account of an exploring expedi
ton up the Damkaril river, in Central
Africa. The party was absent for the
space of three months, and among the ex
traordinary discoveries made was pyramid
over eight hundred and fifty feet in height,
constructed Of huge masses of carved stone.
and surprising the great Egyptian pyramid

Singular Calculation.

The New York Daily -News complies the
following calculations from various sources
all OF which are reliable. They are very
curious and interesting:
The number Of the inhabitants Of a conn.
try or city is almost renewed every thirty
years, and if we allow three generations
for an age, the human race is renewed three
times and third during its existence.
SuppOsing the world to be 500 years old
there would be about 172 generations since
the Creation; 125 since the Delupe, and
81 since the Christian Era and as there is
not family that can prove its origin even
back to Charlemagne, it follows that the
most anciently related among those take
pride in geneolgies are not able to trace
them further back than 81 genera ions
or even so far unless they adopt the aid oil
legend or fiction-which is often much the
same.
Out Of 1000 infants nursed by their
mothers, so died; and of the same num-
Der brought up by strange nurses, 500 per-
ished. Infant mortality increases faster
than any other description, which fact is
accounted for by the circumstances con-
nected with luxurious age. Commissions
and dentl'ion are the predominating causes
Of infant mortality.
The small pox, in the natural way, car
ries off about out Of 100, and bv innocu-
lation (vaccination) one scarcely dies Out
of 800. Ii has been observed that more
girls than boys die of smallpox in the nat
ural way.
From comparisons Of the bills Of mortal
ity of several countries, there are 4 out o
every 3,l2o who live TO the age of 100
years. The proportion Of deaths Of wo
