J0& Supports the Lovcrnumit The disunion traitors who are incessantly slandering the South, assert, because the reve nues are principally collected at northern port!, i that the South pays hut little into the treasury and is a burthen on the government. This is unjust as well 3? fals-. The revenues are de rived from duties on imports which are paid for 1 by the products of the country. The furnish-i ors of the products are those upon whom the burthens oi'the duties rest : for whatever amonnt is paid in duties is ko much deducted from the quantity of commodities received in exchange. j Look at the auth-ntic figures and see who pays the vaunted revenues collected at Northern ports. The following statement lias been taken lirom the reports of commerce and navigation for the. year ending June 30th, 1554 : EXPORT?- Exports the exclusive products of the South. Cotton ' $93,596,220 Tobacco 1 i ,f)66,000 Sugar 0,000 Molasses an<l spis i-ta.a\o!asses ©25,01)0 Tar, pitch, rosi^^furpentine,&.c, 2,066,000 Rice 2,634-,000 Whole amount of exclusive pro ducts of the South 111,2? i ,220 Hero is an export of a single year for aitides exclusively produced bv the South, amounting to Si 11,277,220.

Who then supports the government? Who pavs the revenues ? How much wr-u-Ju be col lected in Northern ports if Southern products were not sent out to pay for our imports?— What would become ol the foreign ci'ptperce upon which the prospei ity of the great rTrfthern cities depends, if the South were to withdraw from the Union* ?

STARTLING- NEWS FROM TEE FLAIRS. By the at rival, on Saturday last, of I). B. Cieghorn, Esq., from California, v,a Salt Lake, which latter piace he left on Ihe 2d of August, nit., we have news of a terrible tragedy in the murder and robbery of Col. A. VV. Babbitt's train of Government property, by the Cheyen ne Indians. Mr. Cieghorn met Mr. Babbitt in camp, at Wood liver, some 15 miles from New Fort Kearney, of whom he learned the following painful particulars of the murder of his men ami breaking up of the train . On Monday night, the 25th of August, the little train with Alexander .Nicholas, (one of our citizens,) as captain and conductor, and Mrs. Wilson and infant, (from St. Louis,) a young man named Orren Parrish, a man from Pennsylvania, and another, name unknown, accompanying, were encamped upon Prairie creek, ten miles east from Wood river, neither fearful or dreaming of danger, when thev were suddenly attacked by a rand of Cheyennes, (which for some cause hr.! been attacked ami driven by the soldiers at Kearney.) Orr and Parrish oniv escaped uninjured to the fort, whilst the other young man recived a danger ous wound from a bullet in the leg. Some days afterwards a d* tac lunetit was smt irom the fort, (fwentv miles.) who found the dead body of Mr. Nicholas some twenty yards irom the wagon, also the dead body of the gentleman from Pennsylvania close by, and tlie ihad body of the child with it-- brains dashed out, and hor ribly mutilated. The pillow where the child and mother sfopt, v. as bloody, and a portion of torn wardrobe of Mis. Wilson on the ground, tut her body was nowhere to be found. The oxen (ten yok) and all the- mules were gone, and the wagons rilled of much of their contents. It seems, however, Ibat a band of Omaha hun ters happened near just after the murder, and in time to stop the pillage and recover the mo ney and some other \aloab!es stolen, which were honestly turned over to the Colonel in command of the corps. Mrs. Wilson ha- doubtless been wounded, and then carried away captive. Tire young man who escaped with a wound is in the hospi tal at the fort ; and the wagms and what pro perty remained were also taken to tire fort.— These are the particulars, as far as we can gather litem. In a few days we shall however, no doubt, get a full detailed account of the mat ter, from the* pen of Mr. Babbitt himself, which we will lay before cur readers. The Cheyennes are a warlike and cruel race, numbering several thousand, who inhabit some of the wild and almost impenetrable rallies in the fastnesses of the Rocky Mountains, southwest from Fort Laramie, and seldom come out, ex cept to roii, plunder, or go to war with other tribes. Our emigration will never be safe un til these merciless pirates are exterminated. SNAKE -TORY. —The Dayton Gazette tells the f Bowing : "A young rr.ar., deaf and dumb, named Elvin Birch, amused the passengers on the railroad train from Richmond east, last Friday, by ex hibiting his travelling companion and pet—a live rattlesnake, which was eighteen years old : and he seemed delighted to receive its embrace by permitting it to coi! around his neck. It seemed to he completely under his control, arid would permit him to open its mouth to show its poisonous fangs; after which he placed it carefully in his tin box, without the Last fear. It had twelve rattles, and was about three feet in length. He appeared anxious to obtain an other rattlesnake, and professed to be .jtbb' to pick them up in the lot est and tame them, with out being 11m least afraid ol'persona! it jury."

MiGIiOCS TU.UII'LJSG ! i'o.\ fjfc AiliEß- K'AK BAKKLB. A short time ago, a large gang of negroes belong ing to Baltimore, left that city on a pic-nlc excursion. On their return, two Irishmen -aid something to them at which they took offence, when a number of the ncgroe- got out of the oirinibu-.es and commen ced an assault upon them. S vera! citizens who saw th.s, went to ttie assistance of the Irishmen, when the whole of them were attacked by the blacks. A public hoiSAiear was then attacked by the woolly head-, end the keeppr severely beaten. Seeing a lib erty pole erfl-ted by The Democrats, in the vicinity, lor. negroes go VP three rkeern for FLTUMONT, pulled down the .♦nericun banner, and trampled it in the dust bem-Ah their feet. If the-e thing-can be done while FREMONT i- only in nomination, what atrocity may no? Be expected shouL; fie be elected? KEEP IT BEFORE THE PEOPLE. Colonel r remoni's hills fir supplies while be was in California amounted to upwards of twenty dollars per tloj for tuch man. under his cgr.r:: ■-d ! * " ' t- ' ' Is Fremont a FaSiielic? -TryVht* seems to he the areit question at issue between the two divisions of the Know Nothing par ly—the ONE supporting; i BK.WOXT, the other FILMOBE. As far as DEMOCRATS are concerned, it matters not what a man's religion is, provided he l el.nM rtTßvr snJ Hostsr." These are the only inquiries that inte:eri he Democratic Party when men are presented, either hy themselves, or others, tor pjjw'es of public trust. But our adversaries having lai-ed the point a- to the religions opinions of Fremont, and he having stated that he so framed his replies as to catch the"voies of al! sides, we deem it our duty to put him just where he belongs. I hat he •".< a Catholic admits or' no doubt not even of the shad ow of a doubt. If any, how ever, should he seepticle on this pon.l, we invite their attention to the proof* to tie found on the fiist page of the Gazette of to-day, ail copied from the Philadelphia A>-i the accredited organ of Mr. FILMOBE in Philadelphia. If any man can i/imljt alter reading these facts—some ol them taken from the organ of tii ■ Catholic Church in St. Louis—then it l- only because he is determined to deceive himself as well as to practice a gross fraud upon others. Having bartered his religion and his political principles to aid the Abolitionists in their etiorls to di-solve this union, it remains to he seen how ninny of the freemen ol this land are wilting to prostitute themselves by voting lor FREMONT lor Pre sident of ttie L T lilted States. The Republican Party is not a -•■ party—it is on ly a branch of the Know Nothing Party—made up principally of the elements which withdcnc fiorn the j Fillmore Convention at Philadelphia, because that Convention resolved that the PEOCLE of the Tetrito lie- should he left to frame their Constitution and Laws, and to regulate their domestic and social af fairs in their own way—employing almost the very words of the t incmnutti Convention on the subject of SLA VERY, a fact that dare not be denied. Now fo re js the TRU.'K. Look at it. The Know- Nothings in Pennsylvania finding that thousands of honest ni-h, who barf been deceived to join their or der, are leaving them and corning over to the De mocracy, determined to do something to chest a por tion of our adopter! citizens to vote their ur holy tick et: Whilst, therefore, Fillmore is the cry 'of that part ol the Know Nothings who profit to he- i licce thai Cathol cs aie a walking ClJfiS£ and NL'l- SANCF. upon ll.e earth—FKLMON I is made the rallying cry ol that other portion of the very name party —and thev appeal to Catholics and Foreigners to vote lor him because he is a Catholic, and because tig is Ihe son of a Frenchman! They have but unc F.lectoral Ticket, although they have two candidates, and the plan is to catch Protes tants WITH Fiu.vtoßK, and Catholics with FKEMONT, and then unite the two branches of the Know Nothing Party, if successful at the polls, by casting the elec toral voir of Pennsylvania lor John C. Fremont and Abolitionism. Here i- a true -fa foment of the way things stand, i and the Catholic or Foreigner who vote- for John C.J Fremont, votes to rivet the chains of oppression and ; infamy upon his limbs manufactured in the Know - Nothing midnight Lodges, just as certainly as he would by voting <or Millard Filmore, or Nimrod Norris, of Bedford Town-hip notoriety. Remember, the two parties have but < F.lectoral Ticket, and this exposes the stupendous fraud so glaringly that the wayiaring man though a fool cannot be mis taken. But we have other evidences of this combination ' in BEDFORD COL'NTY. The 'Know Nothings' ar.d '•Republicans" are holding seperate meetings, all to tttrnvr. for at each Ihey uige a till ion of both factions j upon the Slate and County tickets, which are aboli tion from fop to bottom. Will the hone-t freemen of our rour.fy submit to so degrading'# system of traud and deception astlus? Will they ? \\M. Gill I FITII! HIS FORCED DECLINATION! CT/'One ot' tli" me-: extmordinury political rsns ! ever w itnes-ed liy our "oldest inhabitants," came i olj'in Bedford ad Wednesday of last vve, k, when the delegates selected two veais by the midnight i Lodges, met tor the FOURTH time in Bedford. On j thi.- occasion they went through the farce of receiv ing and accepting the declination of W in. Griffith, which every body knew had been violently totted i from hirn! He was their regular nominee Tor Asso ■ ciate Judge, and had been held up as a mode] of per fection by Fr. Jordan & Co.—and yet, in the ab { sence of any charge preferred against him by his op i ponents, the K. N"s arraign him—try hurt—execute i Into—trike biro ftom their ticket—thus disgracing | hias-ior lite. To add to The degradation inflicted r upon hirn, they insult bint with the declarations lhat J he "-tarnls higher in their estimation now than he ever did before," and lhat they view bint tv- a rr an of The highest •'principle and integrity." "b"- lieve this, hat better recommendation could they desire to defend him before the public ag:ii/|st the attacks ot his most hitter enemies But this is only i intended as soft-soap to make Griffith and his friends WORK for his EXEC! TIONFRS. To give the matter the blackest kind of impress, they speak of his declination as "a most unpleasant condition of things." They do not fell why he was stricken from the ticket, leaving the people to form whatever conjecture their imaginations may siigge-t. Wl v not specify the charges and put in the pi.a ot de fence which all rmii ol "principle and mlegrity" hava a right To expect V"a, to demand From w hat we can learn front Mr. Griffith's poli- I tical If.ends, he is guilt v of having -aid some very hard and indicut things of the Mcthodi-t Church. Now, This is either true or faDe.— If true, be de serves the contempt ot till honorable men—it lalse, every principle which b nds man to his fellow man demanded lui hoi est dejence at the hands of his friends. But the siimu arv manner in which they hurled hirn from their ticket is the best evidence in the world that they con-ider him guilty in manner and form as Mr. WM. COOK, of Bloody Run, de i dared the indictment, threatening him with a In s <>f i 100 votes in West Piovnience township alone ! Now, : it guilty, (add his own party say he is.) conld Mr. Jordan X Co. offer a more deliberate insult to the Methodist Church than they have in making the pro i riamation that "Griffith stands higher in their r-ti- mar ion NOW than he ever did before!" We have heard ot men "leaving their countiv lor their coun try's good," ami now we have to rerorri tiie Grand High Sachem of Know Nothingism in Bedford comi ty as having his ticket for the '-good of bis party!" William first tried to check the progress of Me thodism— then of (. atholoeism—and ended hi- poli enl witchery in the annihilation of himself!—th< fi nal reward of all demagogues. How much better has '-the party" made matters by taking BARNHART—with the flagrant declara tion staring the people in the face that "he VOLUN TARILY permitted himself to lie SACIiIFICKD two years ago" to carry out the frea-onalde midnight plots of the Know Nothing-! Whilst this hum! ha ting confession is made in hi- own partv organ, it is well known to mosr of onr citizens that no man in Bedford denounced the Know Nnthu gs with more severity Than did Adam Barnhart, and now we are told hv his friends that this was all a TRICK to de ceive Democrats, many of whom voted for him thro' the perpet rat ion ot this grn-- rnoial fraud. He vo lunteered to say to Democrats that he would not join the dark-lantern Order for all the offices in the count) —that it was a disgrace arid a nut- to the country—that he mo t heartily despi'ed it, &c. fcc. —facts which can be proved by such men as Hon, "John (hs-na, Mr. Lawrence Jamison, Mr. Wm. Chenoweth, and many others of the same standing in society. Who, then, i- willing to endorse the as sertion of Mr. Jordan that Mr. Barnhart is a "strict' ly moral and upright man," with such violations of morality fa-tened upon him? Above all things in the world the aspirant to a Judgeship should he a man of TRUTH. Voter, remember that whilst A dam Barnhart was profes-ing the greatest hostility to Know Nothings, he was a SWORN member of the order anil so zealous was he for its success ihat he VOLUNTEERED a personal SACRIFICE FOR the GOOD Ob IHL t'AUSKI" U ill honest ireemen, of any party, sanction -nrh conduct as this' We are told that Know Nothingism is made tip of both the old parties, whilst every u an on that ticket, except an And tor, is of the old Whig Party. When Griffith was to he struck off. who had been a Demo crat, why not take Dar.ie! B. Wisegarver, or some niari as good as him? Because it would not do to rake any matt who bait ever been tainted with DE MOCRACY ? Let Democrats look at this , and come home. THK CHEAT TRIAI.

It has made the amiable .Mr. Tillmore himself a blatheiiug disunion ist. and Ins organs the rao-l abandoned of vagabond presses, i here are many rc-pectahle and honorable deluded men in the Know Nothing ramp; but it-, pi er ad mg atmosphere is redolent of had whiskey and rowdyism. We dure say that, in the lump, a more beastly, brutalized.contemptible, ruffianly.am! disgusting faction has never existed in any civilized Community. The basest instincts of brutalized hu man nature —the meanest and vilest passions and prejudices of the proiessional thief, loafer and vaga bond are the gailrage upon which tins monster of Know Nothmgism leeris. From the beginning the concern was invested with some of the elements oi a public nuisance fiorn which we vainly endeavored to liberate it; but from comparative respectability, it has descended to the lowest level of tilth and deg radation. its leading organs and orators go about like scavengers on duty, and carry with them the re pulsive odors of scavengers." This is from the pen of one of the purchased edi tors of the daily journal ; and yet, a majority of the FILLMORE party support the FREMONT fusion State ticket in Pennsylvania, ami are urged to vote for it in October, thereby aiding the friends of the free ne gro and woolly-hor-e candidate for the Presidency.— The time has been when freemen would spurn all as sociation with a party that continually vvepe heaping such attrocions insults upon them and their candi date.—F ntifjlvawian.
