The STRENGTH OF THE FREE STArEs.-Some
CT our contemporaries, who use figures rather
loosely, speak of the free States as having 49,
100000 of people, and the slave States as
having 100000. The latter have only
II, 1928, sos, while the former, exclusive OF
Kansas and all the territories, have 1S,SO2,-
623. But Kansas is now a State, aud the
census gives her l44 ,645 inhabitants, in which
are included the people of Colorado sure to
be free State. Nebraska, Dacotah, and
Washington also belong to US, and these bring
the total up to 1851, 1874 Utah, with 90
600 people, is all north of the Missouri COM
promise line, and half of its total is due to
Nevada, a free colony. This latter item makes
our aggregate over nineteen millions. Ac-
cording to our usual ratio of growth, the ag-
gregate must now be nearly if not quite twen-
ty millions. There is no exaggeration about
these calculations. We have not included a
single foot of territorial area which is not
either now in a free State or sure to be so-
1t is, therefore, undertaking US to speak of the
free States as having eighteen. If Ito the ag-
gregate of the latter we add New Mexico.

cept in name, they have but 1926, ,532-
The course. of events for the last six months
has by no means tended to attract emigration
to the south, and in the last ten years its
whole Increase was only $3.50, $50.

THE PEOPLE IN COUNCIL!
No Compromise with Traitors
GRAND RALLY F.!

Pursuant to public notice meeting Of ci-
tizens without distinction of party" met at the
Court House in Towanda Oh Monday evening,
the l 1th inst, for a mutual interchange of SEN
timent and the adoption of such resolutions as
might have tendency to extricate the govern
ment from the perils that surround it.
A meeting was organized, and resolutions de-
claring the compromises offered by Crittenden,
Bgler, Douglas 4 Co, as a proper basis for
settlement Of the existing difficulties, and coun-
ter resolutions as found below were offered as
amendments On the motion being taken it
is believed that a large majority of the citizens
present were in favor of the amendment, but
the presiding officer decided otherwise Under
the same circumstances it is is believed the
majority report in favor of compromise was
adopted. The meeting then adjourned in great
confusion.
A majority of the citizens having remained,
another meeting was organized by the selec-
ton of Col g. T. Mason of Towanda Boro',
as Chairman, and GEO. p CASH and E. p.
SHAW as Secretaries.
On motion of g. II. WATKINS Esq, it was
resolved that the proceedings Of the meeting
just adjourned in adopting resolutions recon-
mending compromises for the settlement of eX
iSting difficulties, was unparliamentarV, irregu
lar and unjust, inasmuch as said resolutions did
not express the sentiments OF the meeting
On motion Of NJ. F. KINNEY Esq, the fol
lowing Resolutions were then adopted
Resored-That the Constitution Of the United States
having proved tsey sufficient in past difficulties is sul
fcent for present and future emergencies.
Resoired.-That the seeding States of the Union
propose to adopt the present Constitution of the United
States for their separate government 1t proves Concu
svey that the constitution requires alteration in
der TO protect their rights while in the Union.
ResoiUed.-That the principles enunciated in the
Chicago platform contain nothing subyersve of the Con
stituton of the United States aud that the complete
establishment Of such principles would not only restore
the government to the basis upon which it founded
but would the most speedy aud certain ustmen
of National difficulties.
Rcsolred.- That it is unbecoming the dignity OF
great people to treat with traitors with in their
hands
Rssolred-That Gen. Scott and MAJOR Anderson, in
their recent of fidelity TO the Constitutional Laws
deserve the hearty and unqualified approval of every
lover of his country.
Resolred-Tha the thanks Of this meeting he rendered
10 the Band aud that they be requested To conclude the
ceremonies of the evening by playing " Hail Columbia
" The Star Spangled Banner aud " Yankee Doodle"
Resolred That the foregoing resolutions be published
in the county papers.
The meeting then adjourned.

given below.
For the conduct of the professed Repnbli-
cans who took an active part in the first meet
ing we can offer no excuse. Their motives we
do not profess to understand. As ardenty as
we love the union and the manifold blessings
of peace we admire the spirit that will not
stoop to treat with traitors who are destroying
both. We cannot at this hour consent to turn
upon the principles that have carried US to vic.
tory, ard give our sanction to the expressions
of a Bigler and Douglas, and to all the de-
cisions of the Supreme Court. All honor to
the men who are found ready when the times
demand the vinGicaton of the principles for
which they have fought and shame to the
summer soldiers who shrink when the hour Of
trial comes

Thursday Morning, February IA, 1861.

New YORK U. S. SENAroR-Judge Harris
was nominated at Albany on Saturday last by
the Legislature, for United States Senator, to
fill the place soon to be vacated by Hon. VIM.
II. Seward Horace Greely was warm CON-
petitor of Mr.. Harris and it was thought at
frequent points in the contest that he would
be successful. He was supported with re-
markable unanimity not one of his friends
deSerting him At several ballots he had
plurality-49 being the number he received on
the tenth ballot, when Judge Harris bad 60
votes, which gave him majority.

Col. HAYNE, the Special Envoy Of South
Carolina, aud Lieut.. Hall, the messengers OF
Major. ANDERSON left Washington on Friday,
bearing dispatches upon which depend possibly
the question of peace or War-the former
with the refusal of the Government to surren
der Fort SUMTER in accordance with the de
sire of South Carolina, and the latter with the
final instructions Of the Government to the
faithful officer to whom has been intrusted
the command and defense of that fort. The
impression seems to prevail in Washington
however, that an acttack upon it will not
take place Immediately, Notwithstanding the
bravado of South Caronians, and their pro-
fessed anxiety to pull down that "hated flag"

litical campaign. To designate this self
