kASsAs-GoyERNoR GEARY CLEARING THrH
Orrs-According TO a despatch which we pub
lisbed yesterday, from Chicago, party Of Kan
sas emiTants, chiefly from Ohio, Illinois and
Wisconsin, TO the number Of about 700, including
women and children, on arriving at Taber Iowa
on the lst inst, received intelligence Of the ap-
proach Of Governor Geary with $50 dragons to
oppose their entrance into the Territory. They.
however, determined to proceed on their journey
till fred upon, and it was expected they would
meet the troops at Little Nebraska river on the
4th inst Governor Geary is man Of action.
He is doing bis work evidently with the purpose
Of securing Kansas as q slave State before the
expiration Of this administration We expect.
however little popular thunder from Pennsyl-
vania tomorrow, and from Ohio and Indiana,
that viii blow this project of Governor Geary
into ten thousand fragments We are sorry for
it-but aweck hence we fear there will be a sad
reduction in the price Of Kansas niggers Look
cut.

Mr.. BoYcE SECONDS THE MoTIoN.-They have
been holding in South Carolina (Columbia) ano-
ther great democratic notification and disunion
jubilee, at which Mr.. Boyce, one Of the members
Of Congress from that section, distinguished him
self in seconding the motion Of his colleagues
Mr.. Brooks and Mr.. Keitt for notification
revolution, disunion and civil war should Ere
mont be elected They will submit to Buchanan
for four years in consideration Of the spoils; but
after that we are to have disunion anyhow. Can
the American people be bullied into submission
by such barking and bowling as this /? We shall
know in day or two.

very clearly the tremendous difficulties which
beset the earlier managers, and will, we hope,
prove a beacon light to their successors, warning
them off from the rocks and quicksands upon
which Frys bark split
We hope, however, that the public and the
Academy authorities will find some redeeming
points in this eventfu history which will encourage
them to give poor Fry another chance, by which
he may, with the assistance of his brother, the
eminent composer, come out all right again, and
redeem the fasco of Astor place by tremendous
success at the Academy.

CosuNG-We are still in the receipt Of numerous
letters and communications in relation to the re-
cent grand smash-up at Irving place, and the
consequent danger to the Union by the suspen-
sion Of the Italian Opera in New York. just
now, however, the political affairs of the nation
press rather heavily upon our columns, yet we
will take time enough to unravel all the operate
as well as the political difficulties all parties
fairly and squarely upon their legs again, and
condolc with the fashionable world upon their
great affection. This will be the work of time
and portion Of it must be postponed until after
election. when we purpose to commence
the publication Of report Of the ia
nous libel suit of Fry VS. Bennett
which took place last summer, which throws
more light upon the mysteries connected with
Opera management in America, and contains
more startling Developments Of artistic and
managerial intrigues than all the other publica-
items in the world-Maretzck's famous book in
cluded. full and impartial report Of this
great trial will be given to the public Immediately
after the ides Of November, for which interesting
period several other literary gems, including the

THE PENNSYLVANIA ELECToN-BALLor STUFF

extensive frauds in the Pennsylvania elections;
for il says that the election laws Of Pennsylva-
mia are the most stringent Of any in existence,
and are found to be the best guards Of the purity
of the ballot box al the voting is done before
eight o'clock in the evening, and in precincts 30
divided that almost all the voters are near neigh
bors, known TO each other. Printed lists Of the
voters, their occupations and residences, have to
be furnished the election officers, and arc publicly
posted at the polls
The only dangers, then, to bc feared arc niimi-
dalton, spurious tickets, and bribery at the polls,
and balla siuilng, n Yankee Sullivan, when
the polls are closed. Let the Union party look
to these. Forney win no doubt find Yankee
Sullivan If he finds chance TO use him.

Southern statesmen OF the Revolution And 30
on, all the way through.
Read this letter Of Professor Hedrick. Let it
be circulated everywhere, North and South. 1t
is full Of solid argument and embodies much of
instructive and interesting matter concerning the
working of slavery in the South; and this testi-
mony becomes thousand times more valuable
and instructive from the fact that it is the evil
dence of man born and educated in the midst
Of Southern slavery. He gives this testimony
voluntarily, in the face of great personal dan
ger--his least perils being his immediate expul-
sion from his professorship and from his native
State.
Freemen of Pennsylvania the best men of the
South are with this Fremont movement; and this
is one who will not be gagged. Descendants Of
Penn and his pioneers of constitutional liberty!
what is your verdict?

HE PHILOSOPHY OF MIR. PEABODY 3 DINNERS.-
Mr. Everett made one of his happiest speeches at
the great Peabody reception at Danvers, the other
day. He enlivened, what was otherwise dull
dinner, with most brilliant episode upon COM
merce, and peaceful tribute to the great inter-
national banquets given by George Peabody in
London. Neither Mr.. Everett nor any of the
other speakers at the dinner seemed to understand
the facts of the case. Mr.. Peabody, however,
understands it perfectly, and so do his friends in
Wall street. Man, and particularly the Saxon
man, is more easily approached through the dia-
phragm than by any other means. This is an
aphorism, but everybody does not remember it
at the right time. Merchants and bankers every
where know it, however, and the trader or finan-
cer who gives the finest dinners to his customers
makes the most money. Everybody knows what
drumming is. Everybody has heard how nice
young men, Of pleasing exterior and thoroughly
familiar with town life, are employed by the
large wholesale mercantile houses to entertain
their country customers with rather highly colored
views Of New York by gas light. These young
men are amply supplied with funds to pay all
the bills
The same system, varied according to circum-
stances is pursued by all the great European
bankers One of the partners or agents of the
house has control of fund set apart for the din
ing and wining Of the customers of the concern.
This is capital investment and splendid ad
vertisement Mr.. Peabody, who is shrewd-
Yankee, improved upon the system, and did his
own drumming. He banqueted all his American
customers and their friends, and sprinkled
in a lord or two, a knight or baro-
net, and sometimes a hungry member OF
the lower House. Peabody's dinners cost
immense sums, and though the speeches were not
equal to the turtle, and the toasts not quite so
sparkling as the champagne, yet as dinners they
were splendid, and they went straight to the
Saxon heart or stomach-the same thing in ma
jority of instances. Every one has stomach TO
be touched-the heart is not always SO sensitive.
Mr.. Peabody's purpose, in philosophical and
banking point of view, was to advertise the
house of Peabody and bring trade to the shop.
lie succeeded, and all the money he lavished for
outside purposes returned to him an hundred
fold. The idea that his dinners had the most re
mote influence upon the diplomatic relations of
the two countries is SO intensely amusing that
we wonder that even Mr.. Everett whose GOODNESS
and self-command are notorious, could refrain
from laughing heartily when he touched the
point
