There was nothing said by either party] tb'eaeh other, except perhapa nodding to each ' : other Soop, after Stuißbury and; Reynolds - started off to go home, in the same direction in which' the blacks had gone ;—soon after Heed hehrd some fuss in the road at Bi>me dis ■ tance, and ran up to a turn, on the road to see whatit was. He then saw at the distance r of 160 steps from him, three of the blacks go ing along the road and Stansbury and Rey . Holds about 16 yards in advance of them. At tifitmoment Stansbury stopped and turned round towards the blacks, and when they ofot'.he and Lawson Miller came together both it once, clinched hold and snatched each oth er about for a short time. At the latter part of the struggle, Stanßbury seemed to be try ing to get away from the black, backing ta a fence; the black then struck a straight for ward blow, and Stansbury immediately let go of the black, staggered back and put his hands up to his breast. Then one of the blacks threw a stone ah him and halooed “ Kill him ' U—d him, kill him /” He then got over the fence and walked about in the field looking at his breast; his breast and his hands were covered with blood.. [Mr. Heed then went back to attend to his wife, who was in h fainting condition, having also witnessed the contest, and was niot able to leave her till ten o’clock, when he went up again to the place where,the fight had taken place, and found Stansbury lyii/g in the road dead.] Stansbury was about six feet tall, but not strong. He was between 28 and 29 years of age. ' William Reynolds, for Comm’th. —On the evening of the 11th of last August, John Stansbury and I were standing talking with Nathan Heed and his wife, in the road near Reed’s house, Levi Mitchell, Erben Gregg, Bird Bachelor, and two other black fellows I did’ntknow, passed us. They to us while passing. Three or four minutes after they passed, Stansbury and I started after them in a little run. When we caught up, Stansbury-hit Mitclicll and knocked his hat off; then he kicked at him, and Mitchell ran back in the direction they bad been com ing from. Stansbury and I then walked on, and Lawson Miller lialooed, to Mitchell aud (1_ a him to come on and not run. They then came on to ns, aud Stansbury stopped, turned round and caught hold of Lawson Mil ler by the breast, outside of the cravat, with • one hand, the other was on his shoulder. Then Miller seized hold and they jerked each other round a bit. Then I saw Miller strike straight forward twice; —then John’s hands fell right off of him ; he staggered back, and Miller said “clear out, you son of a bitch; I’ll kill you if ever I catch you ou the big road again.” Then John ran across the road and climbed the fence, and I saw Miller have a knife in his hand, all bloody; it appeared to be about a foot long, handle and all. Stans bury dried arpflnd in the field and then came and sat on the fence again. 1 went to him and asked him if he was much hurt: he said . he was not. He told me to go and tell his sister, Mrs. Heed; and. I ran down towards the house, but Heed called to me not to come ;, that his wife was so scared. 1 then went back, and Stansbury was lying in the road. He was breathing when I got there, but died in about five minutes. Stansbury had been drinking, but was not drunk. He was not an gry at the time he took hold of Lawson Mil ler. He just gave him a little shake. He looked like himself; had on just the ordinary expression-of his countenance, and was not angry. ■ Bird Batchelor, for Com’tb.—l am 15 years „ld; I and Levi Mitchell, and Erben Gregg, and Alfred Miller and Lawson Miller, were coming home from meeting. On the road we ■ passed Stansbury, and Heynolds, and Nath an Reed his wife, talking together. After we lmd got nearly to Squire Hutton’s gate, we saw Stansbury and Reynolds running after ns. They catched up to us, and Stansbury catched Levi Mitchell, and struck him and kicked him. Levi jumped aside and said, " don’t do that John.” Then Stansbury struck him again, and Levi run, and Stansbury pick ed up a stone and threw it after him. He then turned towards us, and I and Erben Gregg ran and jumped the fence into a corn field. We wer’nt in the corn field long ; and when we came out we catched up toLawson and he said he had stabbed Stansbury. He show ed us the knife; it was bloody, and so were his fingers and clothes. jjmer Stubbs, oh the part of the Com’tli, testified as follows—That on Sunday evening 11th of last August, my wife and I walked up to the head of my laud; and saw five color ed boys coming up the road. We then walk ' "cd back about 16 yards iu the lane, I sat doivn by the fence. Soon after, 1 saw two of the boys run into the lane and climb the fence into tbe corn-field next my lane. I then got up, and saw.tliree of the colored boys in the road and John Stansbury aud Win. Reynolds 0 or'B "yards in advance of them, all coming , . up the road towards me. At that moment Stansbury turned round and went towards the black's, with hand raised as if to strike, and swearing. He charged Lawson Miller .with something, but he denied it. Lawson deemed to be afraid of Stansbury, and tried to get away, but Stansbury rushed upon him and caught him by the neck. 1 did not see him strike him with the other hand, but his arm came down and I thought the colored boy caught it- They then wrestled and twisted about for some time. They worked towards the fence, and the colored boy was struggling and gasping for breath. He ap appeared to be choking. At first Stansbury appeared to be working the boy back, but about the middle of the fight, the boy became relieved of the choking, and after that seem ed to have the best of it and to back Stans bury towards the fence. I mean that he seemed to fight better in his defence. He got relieved from the choking, but Stans bury kept his hand at his neck all the time. They then suddenly let go both together, and Stansbury staggered back, took a circle in the road and over the fence towards me, and the blacks went up the road. I saw Stans bury put his hands up to his breast and look ?into it. There was blood upon it. Just at. that time the black boys passed the end. of my lane, —the one that had been fighting with Stansbury had a knife in his hand bran dishing it and saying that he would cut the livers out of any man that attacked him in the big road. Stansbury then turned again towards the road and I went to my wife who was much frightened. After Stansbury let go of the black, I Raw no stone thrown, and heard no one say, <*■ Kill him, G d him, kill Inin.” 1 saw Nathan Heed during the scuffle, —he must have been 250 yards or more off. It was about 25 or 30 yards from them. This all happened about miles from the colored meeting—from which direction the blacks were coming. Wiliam Hunt, Esq., f§ com’th.—l was in my house on, the evening this occurred; I heard a noise in the road, and went out to the door. While there, I heard someone say that if he was attacked by some person he would cut his livers out. I then put on my hat and went up to the road, and saw Amer Stubbs coming up his lane, and Wm. Rey nolds coming up the road. We then went up to Stansbury and found him lying in the road. His shirt was bloody, and I saw a stab on the right breast; he died soon after I got there ; he had on a shirt, pants and boots—that was all. I searched his pockets—there was no weapon in them. Dr. Thompson for Com'fh:—Doctor Steffe and I made the post mortem examination of the body of Stansbury, at tl%. inquest. On the right side of the breast there was a wound . about three inches long, severing j the cartil age'pf the-sth rib, and nearly severing the sternum, and entering the caviar of the thor ax. On the left breast thsr,e iyas another wound half inch in length. I passed my in dex finger into it.—lt passed through all the integuments, and penetrated the right ven tricle of the heart. It was about 3 f depth. The first was an incised wound; the latter a punctured wound. They were mode by different motions of the knife. The first wound was not. necessarily mortal; the latter was necessarily, mortal. The latter wound caused his death. They both appeared to have been made by . a sharp cutting instru ment. There vras an odour of liquor upon the body. ‘ . Testimony for the defence. t . Levi Miller, Al fred Miller, Bird Bachelor, Erben Gregg and myself started on our ir&y home form the meeting together.

Lawson t ! do it, and did’nt want fcrhaye anything to do [with it; with that Stansbury collared him, find shook him. He had thestone drawn, and Lawson told him to let him go. Then Stans bury let go and ran towards the fence, and Lawson and I and Alfred started bn home. Lawson lived about 6 miles from the meeting and this was on his direct road home. We hadn’t said a word to Stansbury till he kick ed me. Lawson tried to .get around Stans-. . bury when.he came to him, but he caught hold of him and he couldn’t get away. I did not throw a stone at Stansbury after he let go’of Lawson; there 'was no stone thrown', - and nobody hallooed, “ Kill him—damn him, kill ,him.” Aljred Miller.—l am a brother of Lawson Miller’s; I was with him all that day at the meeting; went with him, stayed with him, and came home with him. After we hod passed Stansbury and Reynolds, and Nathan R.eed and his wife, a little piece on our road home, we saw Stansbury and Reynolds walking' af ; ter us. Stansbury Tan in between Lawson and Levi Mitchell, and kicked Levi and struck him—Then Levi ran, and Stansbury threw a stone after him. He then started on a piece before us, and we wenfcon too. Then he pick ed up a stone and caught Lawson by the neck, imd threw the stone over his head. Then he let go of Lawson and got over the fence, and we went on home, j, Lawson is 17 years of age. Nathan Bacon,.jr. —I saw Stansbury that afternoon, about three quarters of au hour hefore sun set. He was coming from the coL ored meeting. He was in liquor, and he was very, rough with me. ; William King. —l saw Stansbury. at the same time that Nathan Bacon did that after noon. He was drunk at the time. Lewis H. McCardle. —l saw Stansbury the fternoon of this occurrence, about 6 o’clock. aHe was intoxicated. Joseph Bray, Jonathan Hamilton, Alexan der Scott, Joseph Ballance, Olivar Furness, John Gibson, Esq., Robert Gibson, William Gibson, James IV. Paxson, Ellwood Paxson, Samuel Jamison, Samuel Pennell, Lewis H. McCardle, aud William McFadden, testified that they had known Lawson Miller for some years; that he was a quiet, peaceable, indus trious hoy, aud they had never known him to quarrel before this occurrence. Washington Walker, Lewis H. McCardle, Joseph Ballance, Ellwood 11. Paxson, John Gibson, Esq., Jonathan Hamilton, William McFadden, Samuel Pennell, and Nathan Ba con,jr., testified that the general character of Stansbury, throughout the neighborhood, was that of a very quarrelsome mnn when in liquof. Th^,testimony was here'closed, and after hearing the charge of the Court, the jury re tired and in about 15 minutes returned with a verdict of not guilty, and the prisoner was discharged. Destructive Tornado. Louisville, Nov. .*lO. One of the most appaling and destructive torna does which has been experienced in the Mississippi Valley for several years, occurred about 2 o’clock this afternoon. It swept over the town of Cape Girardeau, Mo., "situated on the Mississippi river, just below St. Louis, and demolished some seventy or eighty buildings, many of them the finest and principal business houses in the place. The- Baptist and Catholic churches, and the Catholic convent were destroyed. Two of the large and splendid telegraph masts belonging to the St. and New Orleans Tel egraph Company were cracked, shivered, and brought to the ground with as much ease as though they had been stems. The steamboat Saranac, NA 2. which had just rounded to at the wharf, had her upper works com pletely blown off, and several persons on her were severely injured, and some, it is probable, were drowned. The wharf boat was likewise blown from her moorings, and almost irreparably injured. In order that you may judge of the tremendous violence of the storm, I will'state that a cow was unceremoniously lifted off her feet on terra iirma, and deposited in the top of a tree, sixty feet from the ground. The loss of life by this awful visitation cannot as yet be ascertained; but it is certainly very great, as numbers are doubtless buried beneath the ruins of the fallen buildings. There are also a great many persons seriously injured, and some of them are so crippled and maimed that they will never recover from the effects. The town is literally torn in pieces, and looks truly wo-hegone. Many citizens who were this morning to be seen with light hearts and smiling faces, are to-night wrapped either in the*arms of death, or else are weeping for friends who have been thus untimely swept away. Postage Reform—'l'lie Country Press. An effort will doubtless be made at the approach ing session of Congress, to effect a reduction on Letter postage. We have seen indications of the movement lor a long time, from ,city quarters and shall not be surprised to witness further exertions to give it success. The mercantile interests in the Atlantic cities, are especially anxious on this sub ject and urge it with great energy. How far the country—or the masses of the peo ple—would be benefited by a reduction of Letter postage, we • are not prepared to say; but we are one of those who believe that Postage reform means something more than such reduction. It is time the Country Press should turn their attention to this movement, and make known their views. The people of the country—the farmers, mechanics and working men of the land—are in terested, together with the publishers of the Country Press, in having such an alteration of the postage system as will allow Newspapers to circulate through the maifo/ree of postage, to all subscribers within the county and Congressional district in which they are published; and Senators and members of Congress should be given to understand in very plain terms, that any alteration of postage rates, which does not inrlude this, will not be regarded ( with public faVor. We hope the Country Press of Pennsylvania will speak out on this subject, now, on the eve of the opening at' another session of Congress, and let their representatives know what is desired and ex pected of them. These, members owe something in this matter, to the people and the Press of their respective districts, and it is time they were paying •t-—TIVs/ Chester Republican. lac Revenue of a Betbated Woman.— A young man named Charles F.

She had for a long time endeavored to obtain an interview with him, which he had re fused. On Tuesday evening she stopped at the Al hambra, an eating house in-South Main street, and called him out. She asked him to walk with hec and he refused; after several refusals she tumod upon him with a dirk knife, five or six inches in length, and plunged it with great force into his abdomen, inflicting a wound which is probably mortal.

ID* Congress is now in session. In our next we shall publish the President's Message, which, we presume will be sent in today. : This is the short session of Congress; but it will doubtless, be a stormy one—if we are to judge from the notes of preparation thafhave been sounded by the Free Soilers and Abolitionists of the North, and the Disunionists of the South. The good sense and sound judgment of die moderate from both sec tions will prevail, however, and we have not a doubt that a calm will succeed the storm, and that our glorious Union is destined to survive for ages to come. P. S. Just as our paper was ready for press on yesterday afternoon, we received a copy of the Message from our P. M., Mr. Hamehslt—from which we infer that it was delivered on yesterday. Mr. Buchanan’s Letter. This able and eloquent production, written to the great Union Meeting, in Philadelphia, will be found on our first page. We need , scarcely invite atten tion to it, as the letter will doubtless be read with avidity by every body, Whig as well as Democrat in whose hands the paper may fall. Plain, straight forward, bold and fearless in grappling with the Slavery question, Mr. Buchanan has showed him sell the great statesman to whose advice and teach ings the patriotic of all parties may listen and profit. His defence of the Fugitive Slave Bill is a masterly argument throughout, and cannot fail in having a happy effect in giving permanency to that much abused and much misrepresented law. The press is unanimous—if we except the Free Soil and Abolition,organs, and the Lancasterian of this City—in praise of this able production, The following notice from the York Gazette expresses the general sentiment on the subject: We refer with pride and pleasure to the glorious letter from the Hon. James Buchanan. It is a bold, frank and manly discussion of the whole sub ject. It treats the matter in a lucid and convincing manner, and its lofty strains of patriotic eloquence will ring from one end of the Union to the other. It came to us too late for publication this week, but we promise to lay it entire before our readers in our next issue, and we sincerely trust that all will give it a carefu) perusal. It is in every way worthy of James Buchanan. And the Carlisle Volunteer , an old and established organ of the party in Cumberland county, says of the letter:— “ Mr. Buchanan's letter is, like every thing from the pen of that great Statesman, a master piece of composition. It addresses itself to the good sense of the whole people, and will carry conviction to every unprejudiced mind. Clear, convincing and patriotic in his arguments, Mr. Buchanan expresses the sentiments of a sincere Pennsylvanian and true American. This letter is creditable to his head and heart, and is evidence that Mr. Buchanan is nrnv, as he ever has been, the champion of ihe Un ion and the whole Union."

Tuis splendid exhibition has been attracting crowded houses, at the Mechanics’ Institute, for several evenings past.

Col. Shnduel C. Stambaugb. We had the pleasure, a day or two since, of taking by the hand our old friend and esteemed fellow citizen, Col. Stambaugh, who has been absent for about eighteen months attending to the claims of the Western Cherokee Indians againsl the Government. The Col., as we stated some two months ago, succeeded iu getting the money for that Nation, (about $800,000,) and we are gratified to learn that he has been liberally compensated for his invaluable services to those people. Col. S. looks as hale and sprightly as ever, and is the same open-hearted, generous, whole-souled citizen that he was twenty years ago. Quite a number of his old acquaintances have called at his beautiful resi dence near this City, to welcome him home—and in no instance did they find “ the latch-etring pulled in.” A New Worn:.—We have been presented by the publisher Jos. Mooetdgf., of Philadelphia, with a copy of the “ Comprehensive Summary of Universal History ” —a most admirable little book intended for the use of schools. In addition to the historical sunnmary, it also contains a biographical sketch of the most distinguished persons of ancient and mod era times, together with an epitome of Heathen Mythology, Natural Philosophy, Astronomy and Physiology—forming altogether a highly interest ing work of over 300 pages. From a cursory ex amfmation of its contents, we are fully satisfied.that it is a work of real merit, containing an amoun t of us'ifnl information which can be obtained from no otfier source with as little labor and at as low a 'price. It has been introduced as a Class Book into the Public Schools of Philadelphia, by a unanimous resolution of the Board of Controllers—and is des tined, we thiuk, to be adopted very generally throughout the State.

It isknqVm that appiweibf the relative tortile question, by our Democratic Convention of rite lOjhmf April list—nor did they approve of the sentiments uttered by CoL Fbazsb in his celebrated speech before.the Wiliiainspart- Convention. This we know; bat the public at large did not know it —and they were careful to clothe their ideas on that subject in such ambiguous language aa to de ceive a large majority of their readers. Of course, as may .be alreidy inferred, we do not intend to impute the holding of suck sentiments to CoL Fea zeh—on the contrary,'we are free.tp ‘acknowledge that that gentleman has always occupied the true and patriotic ground on the question of slavery the same platform precisely that has been so ably maintained by Mr. Buchanan in his recent'admir able letter to the Philadelphia meeting, to which the Lancasterian and all the brood of Free Soil pa pers takes exception. , But the duplicity of the LancagUrian. is at length exposed—the mask has been thrown off—and the true sentiments of its editor and contributors made apparent to all, by its puerile attack upon the let ter of Mr. Buchanan. The truly patriotic senti ments there avowed, and the unquestioned ability with which he maintains his positions, do not please the taste of Mr. Holbrook add his Free Soil coadjutors. They look upon the letter as a “base bowing of the knee to the dark spirit of sla very,” as their illustrious prototype, Joseph Ritneu, was once made to say—and they are “grieved and mortified” to find that Jambs Buchanan hasplant ed himself firmly on the ramparts of the Constitu tion, determined to defend the Union against all the attempts of factionists, disunionists and disor ganizes of every hue and grade/ This, and this only is his offence. He occupies the same ground now that he did fifteen years ago, when the Aboli tion crusade first started. No statesman in the Union has been more consistent than he—no one has done more—if so much—to thwart and coun teract the mad designs of the Abolitionists and the other enemies of the Union. And it is for a candid and open avowal of his sentiments—the same which he has always entertained, and which have been endorsed over and over again by the Democracy of Pennsylvania—that he is now taken to task by the Lancasterian! But why does not that paper publish the whole letter? why select out a small portion from its context, for the purpose of making an attack upon its author? If the positions taken by Mr. Buch anan are erroneons—if they aTe anti-republican in their tendency—and if he misrepresents the De mocracy of Pennsylvania, the best way, we appre hend, to expose him would be to give publicity to the letter. It is not fair—nor is it complimentary to the intelligence of its readers—for that paper to find fault with a production from the pen of a prominent Democratic statesman, and at the same time to close its columns against it. The mere ipse dixit of our neighbor will hardly satisfy his in telligent readers. They will, doubtless, prefer to read the letter, and then judge for themselves.— “Strike, but hear me,” was the remark of a distin guished character of antiquity. The advice might be followed with profit by some of our modern fault-finders. Free Trade Movement. A preliminary meeting of persons favorable to the organization of a fiee trade league, took place at the Irving House, N. York, on Thursday evening. Mr. N. M. Beckwith being called to the chair, stated the objects of the meeting to be the formation of a free trade league, for the purpose of advocating the doctrine of free trade and the collection of the revenue for the support of the Government by direct taxation. A letter was read from the Hon. Robert J.- Walker, expressing regret that business engage ments prevented him from being at the meetnig, that he was identified with its objects, and that he was in favor of free trade, and of meeting the expenses of the government by direct taxation.— The following resolution was then adopted:— Resolved, That it is expedient to organize a free trade league, for the purpose of advocating the abolition of indirect taxation, and the establishment of free trade and. of direct taxation for the support of the general government. The chair appointed Messrs. James Lee, John McKeon, H. Fuller, W. C. Bryant, and M. Butter worth a committee to draft a constitution and by laws for the league, to be reported at the next meeting. Messrs. R. J. Walker, James Lee, T. P. Kettell, Alfred Pell, and Wright Hawkes were appointed a committee to draft a declaration ot the principles and objects of the league for publication. The design of this movement is understood to be tha organization of a lree trade party in the United States, irrespective of existing political parties, having its head in New York, and its associate branches throughout the Union, with a view to abolish all duties on imports, and substitute direct taxation of the people at a rate to be regulated by the taxable property of the citizens. fly I f we were not so modest, the complimentary notice of the Intelligencer by that sterling Demo cratic paper, the Bedford Gazette , would make us feel some degree of pride. As it is, we forbear saying any thing on. the subject, except to thank Gen. Bowman for his good opinion expressed in such complimentary terms, and to insert an extract from one of his excellent articles relative to the assaults made upon Mr. Buchanan in this county. The Gazette says: Strange as it may appear, the opposition to “ Old Buck” in Lancaster comes from Hon. B. Champ nets and Col. Re ah Fbazeb, gentlemen who, for a period'of nearly twenty years, deemed it their most pleasant duty to defend him against the as saults of the enemies of Democracy! The Lan caster Intelligencer , of last week, publishes a speech delivered in the Senate by Judge Champneys, only a few years since, in.which the Judge indignantly repelled the very slanders against Buchanan to which he is now giving currency—a speech which we will take occasion to publish ere long. How our old friend Champneys can look upon that speech, and his present course, without feeling: the deepest remorse and humiliation, we are at a loss to conjecture. For his own credit, we trust he will abandon a movement that meets with no counte nance, but is received with disgust in every part of the State. He has had the question of hostility to | Buchanan faitly tested, and the Democracy of Lancaster have solemnly entered their protest against the unnatural warfare now waged against him. Let their voice be respected. Georgia Convention Election. The friends of the Union have gloriously tri' umphed at the recent election for members of the State Convention, called by the Governor of Geor.. gia for purposes of resistance to the action of Con gress in regard to the admission of the State of California into the Union. The friends of the Union have carried the State by an overwhelming major ity, amounting to perhaps thirty thousand! In fifty three counties heard from, the Disunionists have elected but six delegates—all the rest are on the other side. Speaker Cobb has been nobly sustained by hi 9 constituents. Hon. William Beatty. This gentleman, a resident of Butler county, is strongly recommended by a correspondent'of the Harrisburg Union as a candidate for Caqal Com missioner. Mr. B. has always been a consistent and thorough-going Democrat —has been a mem ber of the Legislature and of Congress—and is in all respects a.worthy and reliable man, whose tal ents* and business habits abundantly qualify him to discharge the duties of the office for which he is recommended.

Mr. Buchanan is called “my master,” bytfce 'fireman of the Burrowes locomotive. You will laegh at this, fellow-Democrats—you, who have "known me longer and better than. Holbrook- —you have tried and trusted me for years. It is my mis fortune to hate all kinds of personal dictation ; to pursue my own c<mrse, and to let results take care of themselves. ‘Such was my course in Lancaster; such is my course here; and snch, ifGodgives me life and health, it will continue to be till I am car ried to my grave. If lam proud of one thing, it is that I have won the reputation of being an editor that does his duty unfearingly; that I never yet have deserted a friend, or failed to meet my enemy face to face. I will not complete the most sugges tive contrast, and again point out Holbrook as the tool of Burrowes, with all his political sins en crusted upon him, like a poisonous leprosy— Bur* j rowrs in turn being the tool of men who cannot 1 publicly denounce Mr. Buchanan without being | crushed under the voluminous, unequivocal, and unbroken series of tributes and of compliments which they have written and spoken to his private and public character, as well defending him against the attacks of the whigs, as in commending him |to the support of the country. Turn where they may—select what point they may—give what pre i text for hostility they choose—such have been the | variety and the number of their vindications of his reputation and of his democracy—of his services ! and of his abilities—that, like the blood-battened | Banquo with Macbeth, their own deeds will rise up to appal and confound them. No marvel, there j fore, that Burrowes and Holbrook resort to per- I sonal calumnies to eke out the causes which they ! present to men who were Democrats while the one I was trying to overthrow the decision of the ballot box, and when the other had never been heard of in ; Lancaster—to turn their backs upon one whose j noble stature, like Saul of old, has towered in the 1 cause of Pennsylvania and the Union, a giant among the intellectual giants of the land. No marvel, truly, that these slanders—contemptible and un manly as they are—are left under the exclusive guardianship of Holbrook and of Burrowes. But why am I denounced as the “man” of Mr. Buchanan ? And why is he called my “master ?” The man who uses these terms of me, knew the reason, when, with the malignity of bis old Anti masonic habits, he wrote them, and made Holbrook sign them. Because I would not join in the infamous crusade now waging against a man who is my friend , and whom Pennsylvania and the Country, without \ distinction of party , regard as among the most emirient of our Statesmen. That is my cardinal crime. And why do 1 not join in this crusade 7 Because, with all my efforts to find a reason for sucti,a change of front, I have as yet seen none which can weigh with me, either as a Democrat or as a Man. 1 confess much regard for Mr. Buch anan. I admire him personally. I like his model private character —thatunsuspected persona] purity, which, in your own midst, for more than an average life-time, has never been questioned even by the most unscrupulous antagonism. I admire his public career; his great arguments for the Right; his votes for the country; the wisdom of his statesman ship and the success of his diplomacy,' when sur rounded with tempests and with troubles. Like Col. Frazer and Judge Chahpnetb I have gone far, very far, to say how I felt in regard to Mr. Buch anan. Like them I have spoken often, and written much, in his behalf; and I am committed to a be lief in which I have thus far lived in the honest consciousness that it was a just and righteous belief. Now, when lam called upon to abandon this belief, I want facts, not falsehoods; convictions, not calumnies. It will not do to say that Mr. Buchanan is guilty of certain things charged upon him by the Whigs, and now repeated in -the organ of the doctrine that a solemn election should “ be treated as if it had never been held for I have refuted them a thousand times. It will not do to say that he did not give such and such men.office; For the Democrat who acts upon personal grounds, preclaims his selfishness and loses his just influence. It will not do to say that Mr. Buciianan has not been true on the great question of the North and South ; fqr at this moment he represents most sub stantially the sentiments of the National Demociacy, in both sections of the Union. It will not do, to hold up suspicions and surmises, and hints and in uendoes, as a cause for stabbing a man whose con duct is all frankness and honor. Give me the proofs why I should oppose- James Buchanan — proofs showing that he does not deserve my support and that he has betrayed the confidence of the Democracy —afid though he were my brother “twin ed with me two at a birth,” I would be his political adversary ! Such a Democrat do I profeßs to be. It might go hard to separate from one I had so long defended, but I would do it at once and before all the world. But lam not to be deceived by the coun terfeit notes issued from the Bogus machinery pre sided over by Thomas H. Burrowes. You cannot pass oft upon me, the reeking lies of Antimasonry —so often held up to detestation—as reasons why I should join in the hunt against Mr. Buchanan. If I listen to one, why not accept all? If I act now upon charges so often refuted, why not act upon all ? Why, if Burrowes is to furnish me some of the reasons for my desertion of Mr. Buch anan—why may he not furnish me with all ? Why not add to his other allegations against Mr. Buch anan the fact that the latter opposed the Buckshot War, the Bank of the United States, the Masonic Inquisition, the Missionary Fund, the Abolition Message, and the majority-defying Proclamation ? You cannot take a few of the sayings of this oracle. You must take them all—especially when those last furnished are the real causes of the opposition of the Lancasterian and its editor to James Buch anan. It may be an error of judgment; but I must be permitted to decline association with such a leader at this late day, and deny his right, whether for himself or others, to induce me to abandori'a man so completely identified with the fortunes and the future of Pennsylvania. As it is, lam content to stand where I have always stood, in a proud consciousness that I never was better sustained by justice and by self-respect. Yours very respectfully, JOHN W. FORNEY. Col. William Bigler. Now that Jndge Black is withdrawn from the gubernatorial track, we] take great pleasure in an nouncing our preference for Col. WM. BIGLER, of Clearfield County. We have no hesitancy as to the propriety of this announcement, from the fact thafwe have had an opportunity during the last two weeks of conversing with Democrats frdm all parts of the county, and fmd the pulse beats high' in his favor. Col. Bigler is a Democrat of the most approved school, one old in the service and well tried— one who has done-distinguished execution for his party in the many fierce struggles with the enemy. We have not the pleasure ot his acquaintance, but learn from those who know him welt, that he is a gentleman of considerable ability, enlarged expe rience and popular manners, and, is just the man around whom the Democracy of ithe Keystone can enthusiastically rally. He will, without douJ>t, receive the instructions of when the time comes for appointing delegates. —Washington Examiner. Ip* We perceive that the Hon. Geo. W. Bartow, formerly of this county, lelt N.

E. Bench,Esq. of Juniata County, Adolphus D. -Wilson, Esq n of Ly coming County, Esq., of Alle gheny County, as Commissionera oLlhe Court; and .at. the„.same time tony. regoW-thfr members of theßar present, and others to recom mend to him gentlemen in the neighboring coun ties who were competent and willing to perform the duties of the office. He said that the late act of Congress concerning iugitives from labor, had imposed it as a duty upon the Court to make such appointmepts in places where their service were likely to be needed. That he was much grieved to find:that some who had heretofore been appointed to this office had been compelled by threats and . denunciations, fear of injury to their pro fession, property or persons, to refuse the execution of the conferred upon them. He did not mean to censure any, who, under such circumstan ces, had felt unwilling to run the risk of injury or odium in the service of their country. But he would take this occasion to observe that the time had come when those who professed obedience to the laws, who were desirous of the perpetuity ol this Union, who were anxious to avoid disunion and civil war with all its horrors, must take their stand and no longer shrink from their duty as good citizens. v. - Hitherto, those who had been accustomed to hold their meetings and conventions to howl forth curses and denunciations against the institutions of the country, both civil and ecclesiastical, had been treated as harmless fanatics—with pity, it not con tempt. But when their railing and vituperation were becoming successful as means of intimidation against the honest and sane portion of the commu nity—when mobs of negroes were urged on to mad ness and counselled to arm themselves for the pur pose of rebellion against the laws, and were hounded on to murder its officers—such diseased members of the body politic coaid no longer be treated with contempt or indifference. And while on this sub* ; ject he would say that this city, which contains so many excellent and valuable crtizens r whom he had long esteemed and respected, has been the subject of much libel and slander abroad, false and unfoun ded as he would fondly believe. He referred not to the standing zest of our peculiar taste with re gard to the place from which we selected our chief magistrate, [Joseph Barker] but to a much more serious accusation affecting some of our most hon ored and respected citizens. Was it possible that such men, possessing property, character, and the reputation of sanity, could so far have forgotten their duty as Christians and citizens, as to be found haranguing large assemblages of negroes and others, urging them to arm themselves to Oppose the exe cution of the laws with violence, and to murder its officers’? Bid such persons not know that those who exhort others to commit murder, are them selves accessories to the murder—that those who urge others inter a treasonable opposition to their government are themselves traitors? If a poor negro, driven to madness by such ha rangues, should murder an officer of the law, must he be hanged, and his white adviser go clear? Such would not be found to be the law, and it certainly would not be justice. ’He would say that if the addresses, imputed to certain of our citizens were not grossly mistaken and exaggerated, (as he be lieved and hoped they were) they may be thankful that the negroes, either through a want of oppor tunity, or the possession of more prudence and honesty than their white advisers, have not followed their wicked advice. For if they, had, he should probably have had more painful duties to perform with regard to them, and which he hopetl ; by these remarks to avert in future; otherwise they might rely on it, that those who opposed the execution of the laws with violence and bloodshed, should most assuredly be punished; and those who recklessly advised and tempted them to their-ruin, shall share in their punishment, let their wealth and standing in the community be what it might. In conclusion, the Judge expressed a hope that the commissioners appointed by the Court, would, when called upon to execute the law, do it with impartiality and firm ness, regardless of threats and denunciations. Public Opinion. The Lebanon Advertiser, the organ of the Democ racy of Lebanon county, in an article alluding to onr difficulties in this county, says: There is one thing certain that the Democrats out of Lancaster county will not thank any body of men, even if they are Democats, for heaping un called for abuse upon Mr. Buchanan. He is a Dem ocratic statesman and will no doubt. receive the support of Pennsylvania for the Presidency in the National Convention, and as such, we think it smacks strongly of treason to be abusing him at this time.
