TIE NORTHERN REBELLION AGAINST THE Co
vRRNMENT-THE DEMONSTRATIONS TO FREMONT
AT CINCnNArI AND ST. LoUB.-On another page
we publish, from the Cincinnati Gazette
and from the st. Louis EsMing News,
most alarming accounts of the progress Of
the abolition rebellion against the 60
vernment in the West; and by the report
which we publish of Summers speech last night
at the Cooper Institute, as well as from the re-
cent articles in the Tribune, stirring up a FIRE.
mont demonstration in this city, it will be seen
that it has also reached the Eastern sea-
board, and there is no telling where it may
stop. The Conspiracy has its qualifications
all over the Month, and the government ought
to look to it in time. The secession conspiracy
was allowed to gain Roadway by the imbeciie
cOurse Of Mr.. Buchanan, till at length nothing
could squelch il but terrible war. We hope
Mr.. Lincoln will not allow the Fremont rebel
lion to gain . similar ascendency. Let him
crush it out before it is too late.
The proceedings Of the meeting at Cincinnati
are a. reasonable as those Of any meeting that
ever took place at the South. A series of reso-
buttons were passed consuming the administration
for snperseding Fremont, and Rev. Mr.. Con-
way, in speaking to the people assembled, init
mates that, as their ancestors defed George
ILL.,, so would they defy Mr.. Lincoln and his
"imbecile administration" The reverend
traitor had the audacity to say that the standard
unfurled by Fremont was ga higher standard
than the Stars and Stripes" Where were the
Union men Of Cincinnati when such foul re-
bellion as that was openly preached and tole-
rated among them. All depths of degradation,
he says, are possible with this administration
''the infamous, sneaking, crawling policy which
replaces the electric watchword sounded by
Fremont for this great nation" Nor is this al !:
Germans and native Americans would unite to
root out by violence whatever obstacle lay in
the way Of universal emancipation, liberty and
equality to all, black and white. "Ths
policy Of the administration" adds the rebel,
will be swept away, or else the administration
itself" Are the horrors perpetrated by the
Jacobins Of the French Revolution about to be
inaugurated among u.s.
The language Of the testimonial to Fremont
at St. Louis is pregnant with significance. 1t
states that the sword presented to him is Ito be
welded for the reorganization Of great and
free country" Coupling this with the whole
spirit Of the address, and with the tone Of the
meeting at Cincinnati, it evidently suggests that
Mr.. Fremont at some future day will take the
field as an insurgent chief against the govern
ment If Mr.. Lincoln and his administration
permit this atrocious conspiracy to proceed
another inch, and do not seize the ringleaders
and send them for safe keeping to some fortress,
they will only have themselves to blame should
the abolition rebels proceed hereafter to carry
out their threats.

Official lnsolence.


Nothing is more annoying or calculated
TO give greater offence, than insolent words
or actions on the part of servant of the
public, wheiher employed in the Post Office
or any other branch of the Government
And there are no circumstances which will
Justify their exhibition in any shape. And
yet pnblic censure is too frequently brought
upon the Post Office Department from this
cause.
For the comfort OF those who sometimes
suffer ir this way for the want of courtesy
and respectful treatment on the part OF Post
Masters and Clerks, we will venture the as.
surance that if there is any ''unpardonabIe
SIM in the estimation of the Head of the
Department, il il official insolence 1t is
deemed sufficient cause for the prompt
removal OF the offending party whenever
the charge is clearly established.
or this insulting description are some of
the informal messages introduced on the
margin of :he printed circulars used 10 no.

sent to certain addresses are moi taken out
of the Post Office. Then, there are again
those who return the papers, contrary TO all
Post Office laws and regulations, with lo'
OF insulting language written upon the mar
GIN of it, which subjects the document 10
letter postage and makes the Postmaster
Enable. He has no right TO send back a
paper; much less TO write anything upon
it; the department supply all offices with
blanks for the purpose of informing editors
of the persons who do not lift their papers
OF this latter class of Postmasiers, sorry to
say it, we have one in this County, station
ed a: Cattawissa, or else the work which
came from that Office wofully bellies him.
We received paper of ours a few days
siace, from that Office, which had been ad
dressed TO the Post Master OF Thai place
with directions written upon it Tor its dis.
continuance, and after which, was written

Now we would ask, is this kind of officia
insolence to be tolerated? Are men 10 be

ciples of their oath When officers 60 no

The Western Elections.

The Western elections are surprisingly
anti Republican, and show a remarkable
change in the vote since last fall. Cincin.
natl then gave It's vote for Lincoln. Now
the average Democratic majority is 1000.
Cleveland, Sandusky, Columbus and Tole-
do, now Democratic, gave their votes for
Lincoln, if we mistake not Remarking
upon the result in Cincinnati, the Gazette
(Rep says:
DAT the election held in this city yester-
day, the Republicans, TO use a somewhat
vulgar but expressive term, were cleaned
out. The returns do not present single
redeeming feature, every candidate on the

sweeping majority. The average fusion
majority is now, Judging from the returns

by the Gazette for this defeat may have had

Fort Pitkens.

We hardly supposed that such blind in
fatuaiion existed in any one head. less
much in seven or eight Cabinet Ministers,
as 10 suppose the country could be deceived
by the hollow and forced Surrender of Fort
Sumpter. Is the surrender a pacific sign,
or sign Of Governmental impotency! We
are convinced that it is Governmental ina
bility TO hold it, and, therefore, with a pre-
sumptive air of earnestness and truth fulness,
il is bruiied abroad BY the Abolition Admin
istraiion presses, that il is peace offering
TO e..South Tor the sake of the Union. The
President has never asserted that he was
governed by that intention, and he never
viii utter SO papable an untru:h. He and
bis advisers have been all long talking of
coercion against the South, end are now
obliged to take the poisoned chalic 10 their
own lips from the hands of the threatened
victims, and so it will be in the case of Fort
Picksns and all the other Southern forires

The Late Elections.

In all the late elections of any account
The Democratic party, have had an increas-
ed vote over that OF last fall. Lincolnisn. is
fast willing down; at greater speed than was
anticipated by the Democracy they would
'rither- The people are beginning to see

They have been wofully misled, ,-bewilder-

licans of that fact, is an opportunity at the
'ballot-box; which fact they have already
proven iu a number of instances The late

rebuke, which is one fact not 10 be gotten
around, and goes far 10 satisfy any observer
that the people of these two States were,
in last falls election, deceived and cheated.
la Rhode Island the Democracy, 10 use a
rather vulgar term, cleaned them out!-
They elected a Governor, the two Con
eressmen, and the Legislature, giving the
Republicans nothing. In Connecticut the
Democracy did well; they gained two Con-
gressmen,-one half-bes ides cut down The
Republican majority more than one third
of what il was inlLincoln's election. This

The Philadelphia PennsylUaniGn in speak

We are told that a man from Illinois,

notable instance. The President himself
from base fear and consciousness of guilt,
stole disguised, through Baltimore TO his
own inauguration at Washington He is
this day afraid TO go into any of the slave

prised if one of these mornings the citizens
of Washington, OF awakening, should dis

met had packed up their duds and decampt

These are the people who talked about
hanging Tie Commissioners, and defending
Fon Sumpter to the last, and now threaten
TO force re -enforcements-which they inge'
riously argue are NOT re enforcements-into

Counecticut Election.

The returns are not complete, but indicate
the success of the Republican ticket for
Governor and other State officers by small
majority, and also that the same party have
a majority in the Legislature. James Z.

last Congress by John Woodruff, Republi.

Paying Republican Expenses at Harrisburg.

We published an article two weeks ago
showing that Lincoln's visit TO Albany cost
the State of Now York for expenses ST., 100,
in which bill was an item of 1857 for wines
and liquors. We also showed that the Re-
