Iames H.Lnne. of KANSAS.

We have all along contended that
the person whose name heads this ar
ticIe, was a grand scOundrel and a
grand humbug. Some Of our Repub-
licsn friends thought we were too hard
on their fayorite. Jim had "squealed
freedom, and thatwas sufficient in their
estimation, without any other recon-
mendatiOn, to make him a great man.
To show these admirers that other
men, and even Republicans, have the
same opinion Of "Jim Lane" that We
have, We give the following extract
from letter written to the "Salem
Ohio Republican, dated Mound City,

to- The best friends of the President
will regret that he has SO far yielded to the
importunities of the Greeleyites as to con-
sent to the appointment of Gen. Fremont 10
a command in the army. Fremont was so
VIGOROUSLY incompetent in such a position
that the President himself was constrained
to remove him from the command in Mis-
souri.-Ne,O Albany Ledger.
The virnlence of the Democratic papers
of the country towards Gen. Fremont is
most shameless. While they bestow the most
lavish praise on officers who achieved success
by coOlIy appropriating Gen. Fremonfs
ideas and plans, they lose no opportunity to
abuse the General himself. They charge
indiscriminately that Gen. Fremont is in
competent, in the face of known facts prov
ing him not only competent, but that the
Government has only been successful by
adopting his plans. -.

BBThe new article Of war which passed
the United States House of Representatives
some time ago, prohibiting officers and sol
slaves, was yesterday adopted by the Sen
ate, by the decisive vote of 30 to 8. We
trust this will effectually put stop to the
disgraceful and illegal meddling with sls ve-
ry which has hitherto been INDUCED in by
a few fanatical officers, who, taking their
views of the constitution solely from the
New York Herald, have ignorantly usurped
functions which belong exclusively to uni
ted States Marshals and Com missioners.-
The army of the United States has no right
to recognize any man as a slave, nor has
any private citizen right to arrest and re-
turn fugitives. By the law of 1850 that
disagreeable duty is assigned exclusively to
certain civil officers, and no one else has
any business with it.
Gen. Mcclellan, it is stated, heartily ap-
proves this additional article of war, aud
the army itself will be glad TO be formally
relieved from again mourning the odium of
maltreating the most loyal and serviceable
portion of the Southern population.--M Y.

THE q. s. FRIGATE VERMoNT.-Nothinp
has yet been heard of the frigate Vermont,
since she was seen dismasted at the mercy
of the storm, off the Nantucket coast She
left Boston on Monday, the 14th nit, and
in the gale of that night parted with her
consort (the Kensington) y and lost her sails
and rudder She also parted all her an
chors, and had her tiller broken, and con
tinued in great distress up to. Thursday
afternoon, when one of her officers was
taken off by u passing schooner, and brought
into Gloucester, Mass, to tell the sorry tale.
At that time the Vermont was about 90
miles E. s. E. CT Highland Light, Cape
Cod, and drifting off to sea. Three or fonr
steamers have left Boston, and two from
New York, in search of her, but as yet it is
not known with what success. No kefions
apprehensions have, however, been enter
tanned for her safety, as she was perfectly
tight at last accounts, and had been able to
get up temporary steering apparatus. The
Vermont is one of The venerable United
States ships of the line, and left Boston
with small and green crew for Fortress
Monroe. -ls- SO -s7 e

A WOMAN ELECTED MAYOR AT a late
local election in Oskaloosa, Iowa, there was
but one candidate presented TO be voted for.
The "boys" did not like him, and were
bound TO have another candidate, and so,
more in the spirit of fun than otherwise,
they nominated Mrs. Nancy Smith on the
day of the election, and to the astonish-
meDt of everybody, it was found that Mrs.
Nancy Smith had twenty-one majority over
the regular candidate for Mayor. So Oska-
