THE convention of ofiice-holders recently
held in Kentucky to endorse ABE LINCOLN,
placed Mr.. JAMES WEIR on the Abolition
ticket as an elector. Mr.. WEIR declines
the proffered honor in letter to the Louis
Vile Journal, and in private note to the
editor says: rl0
SIT is too bad for fellow to be bedevilled
for three years with war, guerrillas, and so
forth, and, then, in his old age, to be pub
lished as Republican elector." i

Startling DevclOpments-A Society
for the Abduction of VirfsiOus
Young Females An Albanian

During the past few months several re-
spectacle young girls of our city, as well
as others in the western part of the State,
have mysteriously disappeared from their
homes, and no trace could possibly be as
certained of their whereabouts, notwith-
standing the most diligent search was made
for them. Recently, however, some start
ling developments have come to light
through the arrest of young girl named
Jennie Thompson, at Utica, who was at
tired In male habiliments, and went under
the assumed name Of James Thompson
Upon searching herso enormous rascally
documents were found, making startling
revelations. There was manuscript
copy of what purported to be the con-
stitution and bylaws of the 'Knights OF
the Secret Circle" In this document
the objects of the Circle are said to be
to kidnap and send to New York
city houses of prostitution young and
virtuous girls. 1t Is stated that after their
being kidnapped drug is to be administer
ed to them, and their action under its in
fluence will determine whether or not they
are virtuous. If not they are to be releas-
ed. [We may say here that there is no drug
which will determine any such question:
The manuscript is signed by twenty-fouI
persons, members of the Secret Circle. A
Cary, of Albany, is President, and Cary and
one Patrick Farrell, are Directors. Other
names among the twenty-four are those Of
Theodore and Hiram Andrews and their
wives. Appended is a list Of nine young
girls whose abduction is considered feasible
and advisable. One of these, Esther A
Parks, who disappeared May 10th, and Miss
Barnett, daughter of Hon. James Barnett
both of Oneida county. Also the names OF
three men, (Gerrit Smith, c. ID. Miller and
--- Stewart,) who have been marked for
vengeance. This is one of the most damn,
able eorganizationse conceived by wicked
minds.-ALhdnN RnickerbOcker.

and what will agree with the stomach, is about as
sensible as to ask what is sweet bitter, sour.

great philosopher. l must not omit word or two
for your Catawba Brandy. have many men here

The Abolitionists in Licking county, for
whom the prayers of the faithful were re-
quested in the State Convention, appear to
be getting no better very fast. A new ele-
ment of dissension has recently appeared
among them. Mr.. ASA L. HARRIS, of the
Coshocton Age, has issued the prospectus
for new Republican paper to be printed
at Newark. The True american, feeble
and dingy concern now published there,
sees in this move scheme to swamp 1t, and
is consequently loud in its lamentations,
and promises to brush up and do something
to entitle it to the name Of newspaper.
Which one of these papers will support
LINCOLN, or which one FREMONT, or wheth-
er they will rival each other in support OF
LINCOLN, we are not informed. We mem
ton this affair as one Of the multiplying
illustrations Of the happy concord prevail
ing In the ranks Of the loyal. 'lF lig5. h95' Il

The Nominees of the CIevelnnd
Convention.

Thenominee for President, Gen. JOHN G..
FREMONT, was the candidate of the Re-
publican party in the memorable campaign
of 1856, being then defeated by JAMES BU-
cHANAN. Gen. FREMONT, in that year, was
supported by most of the present adherents
ofABRAHAM LINCOLN; and they cannot i'm
pugn his 'loyalty," for he, in fact, is the
father of the Republican party, now sail
ing under the recently assumed name OF
'sUnion." Gen. FREMONT, when he led the
Republican party, and carried its waving
banners, was styled the 'sPathfinder of the
Empire" He is the representative man of
the Radical German element of the coun-
try. He is bold and daring in his under
takings; and, we apprehend, will not be
driven from the Presidential course
by the paid officials of the present Ad-
mInistration. His energetic denunciation
of the course of the Administration
in suspending the writ Of habeas corpus,
in districts not within thesphere of mill
tary operations; the fact that he is the au-
thor Of the first Emancipation Proclama-
ton; that he is opposed to the establish
ment of European domination on this conti-
nent, being a believer in the Monroe doc
trine; have endeared him to formidable
body Of men, who are determined, at all
hazards, to drive into obscurity an Admin
istration they helped into power; butwhich
has since its accession disgraced their rep
ressntatiyes, and, upon all occasions, COM
PEELED them to get down in the dust. This
radical element carried for LINCOLN, in 1850
the States of Wisconsin, Iowa, Illinois, and
aided materially in giving him the vote Of
the Empire State. Their disafection Is the
most terrible blow the Administration has
received. Their influence, too, in Ohio, is
not inconsiderable; and, as the campaign
progresses, we should not be surprised if it
would be a knotty question as to which
wing Of the party is the stronger-the
FREMONT wing, or the one sustained, sup
ported, and upheld by the Tax-Gatherers,
Provost Marshals, Enrolling Officers, Post
masters, &C. &c.
General FREMONT Is q son-in-law of the
late Colonel BENTON; has been a United
States Senator, and In talents Is unquestion-
ably superior to LINCOLN. If we had time
to reproduce from our Republican ex-
changes-printed in 1s56--their panegyrics
upon FREMONT, we think we could con-
vince them from their own sheets, that
LINCOLN ismfnitely his inferior.
