GENERAL SMALLWOOD,

Without a cestige to mark his Craze, except

common 1eueI
The general contents of the Grafton de-
Ilivered yesterday 9th of july in, Port To-
bacco, were excellent; and portions of it.
Itouchingly eloquent None more so, than
the young orators reference to GENERAL.
SMALLwooD. Some impulses should be re-
sisted; but the impulse to arise Immediately
after the conclusion CT the speech, and say,
what [ am about to say, would have been a.
right impulse. Then was the most favor
able moment. But any moment SHOULD be
favorable. Contracted must that heart be-,
who would not contribute to the erection of
a durable inclosure,. and some tablet to the,
memory, of GENERAL SMALLwooD. I, deema
it a privilege to say, Mr.. Editor, that WILL
pay into your hands ten dollars, it, includ-
ing my small donation debt, one hundred
dollars is raised to inclose and mark the spC t.
where GENERAL SMALLwooD was inferred.
The amount, whatever it may be,-fve
times the sum mentioned should be forth
coming,-to be paid to the presiding officer
of the 4th Of July celebration in Port To-
bacco, yesterday, and in conjunction, and
with the appreciation of the owner of tho
land, construct such Enclosure, and erect
such a memento, as the means contributed
will Justify.

he not steer us safely through the one that

throw him aside and trust ourselves to the

can we risk the youth and inexperience Of
Mr.. Fremont? No! But let us turn to
him who, "Haring experience Of past SER

THE KANSAS BILL-PAssAGE OF TIE
RIVER BILLS. : Washington, July T.
There seems no doubt that the Senate com
mittec on Territories will report the bill
passed on Thursday as substitute for that
Of the House, and in that shape return it tc
theelatter body where it's success is doubt
full.
The House is to act on the River i'm
provement bills which the Senate to-day
passed over the Presidents vetoes. Mr.
Bright's decision, so decisively sustained
establishes the precedent relative to consti.
tutional votes in such cases.

which has Influenced this uniformly cour-
teous and obliging officer is, the past ire
gularity of the steamboat. We should pre-
fer having the mails conveyed by this route
on account of their being delivered about
five hours sooner than by the route now in
operation, and on account of the increased
facilities of travel and greater dispatch in
forwarding letters to, and receiving them
from points beyond Washington, which it
would afford. The advantages, we think,
would more than compensate the people in
terested in this matter for an occasional in
terruption, which would result from a fail
ure of the boat to land during bad weather.
We understand the agent of the steamboat
company is willing to guarantee that the
mails shall be delivered, free of charge, as
promptly and regularly as any line in the
United States, provided two good stages for
conveying passengers be placed upon the
line from Port Tobocco and Glymont, to
connect daily with the boat on her down.

PASSAGE OF THE KANSAS BhL-The U.
is. Senate, after an exciting session extend
ing through the whole of Wednesday night of
last week, passed the bill for the pacifcation
of Kansas. It provides for commission for
ascertaining the legal voters, who shall elect
delegates on the day of the Presidential
ELECTION, and the Convention to assemble on
the first Monday in December to decide =
first, whether it be convenient for Kansas to
come into the Union at that time, and, if so
decided, proceed to form a constitution and
State government, which shall be republic
can in form, and admitted on an equal foot
ing with the original States.
All offensive territorial laws against the
liberty of speech, the press, and requiring
an oath to support the fugitive slave law,
&C., are repealed thereby, and for the pre-
vention of fraud or violence at the election,
military force is to be used. The bill was
amended in one or two important par.tiicu-
lars, one of which amendments strikes out
a provision which allowed any white male
above twenty-one years old, who had rcsid-
ed in the country or Territory three months,
to vote at the election. 1t is to be hoped
that the bill may pass the House, and sue
coed IN giving quiet to the country
The amendment of Mr.. Seward for the
omission of Kansas with the Topeka con-
stit'1ttlon, was promptly voted down, as was
.clso several others of kindred nature
The House, however, on Thursday last
lreconsidered it's former vote rejecting by
one majority the Kansas Topeka bill and
passed it by yeas 101, nays 81.

1.-THE Crops IN PRINCE GEORGE .-Our
farmers throughout the county, says the
Aduocate, are just now in the midst Of the
busy season of harvest. The wheat, we are
sorry to learn, has been much damaged in
many sections, and is thinner than was
hoped. The crop will probably fall short
of last years yield, though impossible to
say, as yet, how it will compare with the
average yield Corn is generally very
backward, and Tobacco is suffering severe
ly for rain. The fair prospect afforded by
the late generous seasons has been, to a
great degree, counteracted by the subse-
quent drought, and in several localities we
hear that the plants are burning in the hill.

FEARFUL RAILROAD ACCIDENT BETWEEN
WASHINGTON AND BALTIMoRE.-.A shock
ing railroad accident occurred on Monday
afternoon on the Washington branch of the
Bait. and O. railroad to the 4 o'clock train
from Washington. 1t took place about a
mile from the Relay House and near Elk
ridge Landing, and was caused by a switch
being maliciously forced open by some fcnd-
ish person, throwing the engine off the track
The engine ran some distance and upset, the
baggage car following it, ran up an embank-
ment, and the express car in the rear of it,
was thrown directly across the track, the
smoking car which followed it, was driven
against it and broken entirely to pieces
The express car which came next, sustained
some injury, but the passengers in it were
unhurt. Two persons were killed, the en-
gineer and newspaper vender who attend
ed the trains, and five persons injured
Among those injured was Brice Worthing-
ton, Esq, of the Annapolis bar, and VIM
Bridges, confectioner, of Baltimore.

LETTER FROM A MARYLAND WING.
In regard TO the duty of the Wings of the Union
j. the approaching canvass for the choice of a
President OF the United States-though, as we
believe our readers generally understand, we con-
rider the National Intelligencer to be pledged, in
The absence Of any Wing candidate, to give its
support to such citizen as may be recommended
by the Wing General Convention which is about
to assemble-we feel constrained by the claims of
debate to give hearing 10 faithful professors of
Wing principles, without exercising too close a
scrunity to the entire concurrence of their views
with our own. In placing before readers,
therefore, the subjoined powerfully written arti-
Gle, we submit it to their judgment upon its own
merits, without deeming it necessary at the pres
ent time to state how far the opinions of the wri-
ter accord with our own upon the important ques-
tion which he discusses.

effect of driving from his mind and his
heart any faint that might have remained
favorable to negro slavery.
A member of the California conven-
ton when she framed her constitution, be
was instrumental in making that constitu-
ton free. Elected by the golden state TO
the Senate, he served for the short time
he was there ereditably to himself and
his young state, thus proving that he is
not inferior as a statesman, and his recent
avowals show him to be opposed to the
whole Kansas-Nebraska policy.
In his explorations his examinations
have been useful, and his writings clear
and foreible. He has done a good work
for his country in pointing out the south
pass, and he has done well TOR geography,
botany, and kindred sciences, in his wri-
tings. We repeat therefore that he is
not by any means unknown, and further
that all that is known of him is favora-
bic. He deserves well of science. He
deserves well of the friends of freedom.
