SENATOR BIGLER'S RESOLUTION
Senator BICI.ER is determined to do some
thing to render himself notorious. Kike the
silly youth who tired the Kphesian temple, he
is bound to go down to posterity, even if his
reputation is acquired by some deed of doubt
ful morality or wisdom, lie has at length hit
upon a scheme which will enable him to suc
ceed in his aspirations for a niche in the tem
ple of fame.
On Saturday, 9fh inst., Senator BlGLEßsub
mit ted a resolution for the consideration of the
Senate, calling on the President for copies of
the vouchers on which Mr. FREMONT'S accounts,
as an officer of the 0 overnmcnt, from his first
expedition to California were settled, so that
the nature of the disbursements may appear ;
also inquiring whether there is any public mo
ney in his hands unaccounted for, or whether
there are any papers on file in the Departments,
from official sources, charging him with mal
feasance in office, &c.
By the rules this laid over until Monday,
when the mover called it up, and it was pass
ed. It is but justice to some of the Southern
Senators to say that they denounced and voted
against this resolution. Col. FREMONT'S friends
in the Senate mostlv voted for it.
Tn the course of the discussion upon the re
solution, Senator BIGLER said :
" These charges against Mr. FREMONT, with regard to
" financial matters, had been extensively circulated, and
'■ it "'/is dur tn him that they should be refuted from ofll
via! sources, if it could l>e done."
He will hardly find any one silly enough to
believe that a regard for Col. FREMONT'S repu
tation had anything to do with the movement.
It will be regarded as an attempt on the part
of Mr. BUCHANAN through his right-hand man
in the Senate, to make a cowardly and covert
stab at Col. FREMONT'S reputation. Senator
BTGT.ER has taken npon himself a part of which
no upright and manly opponent would be guil
ty—and to which we are surprised to sec him
stoop. It is well understood that all of Col.
FREMONT'S accounts and vouchers are iu the
hands of his political opponents, and that but
s- irn days were left of the session ; consequent
ly no report could be made until after the ad
journment, when there would not be any op
portunity to examine the truthfulness of its
statements upon the floor of the Senate.
It was only the last session of Congress that
Col. FREMONT was allowed payment fur a large
amount due him by the United States, and his
accounts were thoroughly audited and scruti
nized. Now, the tender regard manifested for
his reputation by JAMESBUCHANAN'S fugleman,
will excite the admiration of the country.
JFEY- A tremendous FREMONT and DAYTON
meeting was held at Troy, 011 Saturday night
last, which was addressed by A. S. Pi VEX and
.Mr. DCNN, of Elmira. Four cars came from
Elmira, loaded with Frcmontcrs to attend.

THE EFFECTS OF FREMONT'S NOMINATION.
It is I MIL a sltort time siuge the noiuuuiWws
of the Republican party were iftade at i'fiila
delphia and already the euthusiusfe and popu
lnr feeling aroused 'y the names of FRE
MONT and DAYTON has had a glorious effect.—
Before (lie overwhelming tide of Freedom, the
Siuvery cxtensiouists liave begun to bow.—
The afeh traitor T)ofrtj.A.<forgetting WS flireftt?'
of subjugation, stands up in the Senate Cham
ber and proposes to repeal a few of the more
obnoxious of the barbarous ende of laws, which
he once proclaimed must be respected and en
forced.
The shouts that go up from the people for
the cause and the candidates of Freedom have
penetrated even the White House, and struck
terror to the profligate PIERCE. lie hastens
to remove SHANNON*, ns a peace offering to the
outraged people. The Free State men in Kan
sas have asserted that SHANNON was unfit to
discharge the duties of the office of Governor,
and the President now confirms their position
by summarily removing him from that office.
For months, the leaders of the Free State
movements in Kansas, have been proscrilicd and
outlawed from the Territory, or languished in
prison, under indictments for high treason.—
Awed and rebuked by the popular voice, it is
now announced, by authority of the Adminis
tration, that these indictments arc unjust and
cannot be maintained, and that the prisoners
are to be liberated, and the indictments set
aside.
The Territorial Judges appointed by the
President have bceu the head and front of the
outrages upon person and property in Kansas,
perpetrating under color of law the most dis
graceful and lawless proceedings. It is now
announced that these agents for forcing Sla
very upon the Territory are to be removed.
These movements are an acknowledgement
of all that the Free State men in Kansas have
ever professed. They have declared that the
laws of the pretended Legislature were bar-
barons and tyrannical ; that Gov. SHANNON
was wholly unfit to be Governor ; that the
men under indictment for treason for crime
had committed no offense against the laws of
the United States ; and have arraigned LE
< omitk and his associates for the grossest dere
liction. All this is now admitted to be cor
rect by PIERCE, DOIT.I.AS and their confede
rates. They have receded from the positions
formerly taken, and acknowledge virtually the
justice of the cause of the Free State men.
That they are sincere in a desire to repair
the wrongs they have inflicted upon Kansas
no one will believe. They are alarmed at the
popular movement now making to elevate FRE
MONT to the Presidency for the purpose of re
dressing the grievances under which the people
of Kansas suffer. They sec the hand-writing
on the wall. Defeat stares them in the face.
Despair reigns at a Wheatland and emissaries
from PrciuNAN hasten to Washington implor
ing that somejneasures may be taken, if pos
sible, to arrest the tide of popular feeling. The
concessions made indicate the fear of the elec
tion of FREMONT. Does any one suppose that
if he had not been nominated, that DOCCI.AS
would have given up his declared intention
to subdue the Free settlers of Kansas, and pro
posed any measure for their pretended relief ?
Or would SHANNON have been removed, or the
prisoners indicted for treason had justice, much
less mercy, shown them ?
Having already gained half a victory—hav
ing humbled the arrogant pretensions of the
nigger-drivers—it remains only for the people
to press on and secure the victory which is now
within their reach. The concessions shown by
the Oligarchy should satisfy every freeman of
the justice of his conrse and inspire lain with
renewed determination and energy. Depend
upon it, that the offerings made by the slavery
propagandists are unwilling ones, wrested by
the strength of popular opinion. The purpose
to force Slavery upon Kansas is not given over,
but it is deemed necessary for the success of
the pro-slavery candidate to lull the people in
to security. The only safety that Freedom
has, is in the success of the Republican candi
dates. Their triumph will be the triumph of
free institutions. The election of BUCHANAN
would be an admission en the part of the
North, of a willingness to have Slavery exten
ded not only over Kansas, but over all the im
mense territory bordering on the South and
West. He would hardly be inaugurated, be
fore the ruffian threat " we will subdue you,"
would be reiterated, the mask would be thrown
off, and the schemes for extending Slavery,
prosecuted with renewed energy.
in** The niggerdriving Executive Commit
tee are flooding this County with documents,
and saving the Republicans much labor and
expense. We should suppose from (he charac
ter of the documents sent by them, that they
thought Rradford County was in youth Caro
lina. One of the speeches circulated is J.
(II.ANCV JONES', made expressly for the South,
to satisfy the slave-owners that Mr. IIPCHANAN
was, and always had been, true to their inter
ests. Another is A. 11. STEPHENS', of Georgia,
who was a rank disunion Whig, until lie be
came satisfied that the Democratic party was
the proper place for those who wish to extend
and aggrandize Slavery, lie attempts to show
that the Riblc sanctions slavery—forgetting
that it was not then negro Slavery, but white
servitude ; so that if his argument proves any
thing it proves the doctrines of the Southern
people, that whites may now be held in slave
ry. It also proves that its cotemporary and
kindred institution, polygamy, is lawful and
proper. Wc hardly think our white laborers
and moral people are prepared just now to
wallow his doerines, though labelled demo
cratic -so scud ou Mr. STEPHEN ' speeches.
FROM CALIFORNIA.
. WcJuMj#. lay a late arrival two Wf-i-ki lntej;
news. The Vigilance Committee wus.iu toll'
I power, and tdl attempts of the Governor to
1 inducp them to abdicate laid faded. Judge
| Terry was still in their hands ; but it was
thought that lie would not be executed. Se
veral new arrests and shipments of suspected
tmri been Ttuwfcr by the Committee. —
Very destructive fires had occurred, whereby
Plaecrville, Nevada and Georgetown were ra
| vaged almost to annihilation. The loss at Ne
vada is Stated between two and three millions.
Nearly two hundred buildings were destroyed
at Placerville, and the loss was estimated at
$1,00(1,000. The loss at Georgetown was es
timated at SIOO,OOO, A large fire has also
taken place at Marysvillc ; loss SIOO,OOO. —
The mines are prosperous, except for lack of
water. The first returns of the grain harvest
are coming in. It is believed that the crops
of this year will be larger than those of any
previous year. The quality of the grain is
excellent. The nominations of Buchanan and
Fremout had been received, and tho Democra
cy had held a ratification meeting at San Fran
cisco. They stuck preUy hard on the Pacific
Kailroad dodge, and will be very likely to take
revenge at flic pulls. Col. Fremont was en
thusiastically hailed, though the Republican
party can hardly boast of an organization as
yet. The Know-Nothings will hold their State
Convention on the 2d of September ; the De
mocrats on the 7th ; and the Republicans on
the 27th of August.
ADJOURNMENT OF COXCRESS. —The session of
Saturday was prolonged until 4 o'clock of Sun*
day morning. Committees of conference were
appointed in reference to the amendments to
the Appropriation bills, and the House reced
ed from all except that which refuses to pay
for another session of the Kansas Legislature,
which the Senate agreed to. The House final
ly voted to hold on to its amendment to the
Army bill, forbidding the use of U S. bayonets
to enforce the bogus laws in Kansas.
Monday, another committee of conference
was appointed, but were unable to agree, and
the House adjourned at 12, M., without pass
ing the Army bill. This bill appropriates
about fourteen millions, and it is thought that
an extra session will be called in consequence
of its not passiug.
We rejoice that the Republicans of the
House have thus shown that the slavery-ex-
were determined that the forces of
the United States should be employed to en
force the tyranuieal code of Kansas laws.
Talk about "shrieking for Freedom"—
was there ever anything in the line of the hor
rible could equal an electioneering document
Senator BIGLKR is franking through the coun
ty, the title of which is—" The fearful issue to
be decided in Xnrembcr uest ! Shall the Consti
tution nnd the J uion stand or fall? FREMONT
the sectional candidate of the advocates of
Dissolution. BUCHANAN the advocate of those
who advocate ONE COUNTRY ! ONE UNION !
ONE CONSTITUTION and ONE DESTINY !"
We submit that this screech for Slavery goes
ahead of anything yet introduced into the can
vass. It sounds something like the decrees of
the Chfuesc Empire :—" A special edict ! hear
and tremble 1"
THE NEXT COXURESS. —At tlic electious
which have just been held iu some of the Wes
tern States the first members have been cho
sen for the Congress which is to succeed the
prescut one. Thus far everything has worked
well for the Republican cause. In the present
Congress, all the Missouri members are against
that party. In the next, one member front
that State will be favorable. lowa is repre
sented now by one Republican and one Demo
crat. She has just elected two qew members,
of whom one, Mr. Davis, of the second district,
is known, beyond all doubt, to be Republican,
lie is chosen by some three thousand majority.
In the first district, another Republican, Cur
tis, is also elected. This makes in lowa and
Missouri a gain of two members for that par
ty. Assuredly, this may be taken for a fair
beginning of the campaign, and if the succeed
ing elections in the free states result similarly,
the next Congress will be more overwhelming
ly opposed to the extension of slavery than is
tire present one.
fitaT* The And-Slavery Stan/lard, the organ
of the Garrison abolitionists, takes strong
ground against the republican party. It gives
in its leading article for this week, an extract
of a letter from a "clear sighted abolitionist
in Massachusetts," who says that the success
of the Republicans " will in its benumbing and
satisfying influence retard the movements of
the slave's redemption." So Parker Pillsbnry
a prominent Garrisonian, in a speech at Fra
mingham on the 4th of July, declared his pre
ference for the election of BICH.VNAN', because
it would tend to promote and influence the an
ti-slavery agitation, while that of FREMONT
would tend to a cessation of it.
On our outside will bv found a corre
spondence between K. CIRRV, Esq., and Hon.
G. A. GROW, in regard to certain documents
bearing the frank of the latter. It. exposes a
disreputable trick of the Bnchaniers against
which we caution our friends throughout the
District to be on their guard.
THK Ei.Krriox IN* IOWA. —The election of
Paris, Republican, in the first Congressional
District, as also that of Curtis, Republican,
iu the second, is now placed beyond all doubt.
Davis' majority will be fully five thousand,
xx Hilc that ol Curtis will not be far from oue

" The delegates to the County Convention on the -Ith in
stant, brought us the most cheering ami gratifying intel
ligence. Many of them assured us that the vote in their
respective localities in November next, for Fremont and
the cause tie represents, would astonish his friends every
where. Neighborhoods that have been the strongholds
of the Democracy in this county for years, are going over
into tlie ranks of the opposition almost en masnr."
—A gentleman living in Houesdale, Wayne
county, and who is a man of high character and largely
acquainted with the politics of the Northern region of the
State, gives it as his opinion from the desertions openly
going on in W ayne from the Democratic party, that she
will give lutm majority for Fremont.
—A friend writing to the Philadelphia Tivics
from Union and SnyiU-r comities, tliot Union is good
for seven hundred and fifty majority for Fremont. He
spends confidently of a larire majority also in Snyder for
the People's candidate. He has jn-t imide the tour of

—Tn Philadelphia city the Republicans seem
to be by far the most active party. Ward meetings are
held every night, and the flames of Freedom are burning
brightly. HOKACK (IKKKI.KV and if. 11. STANTON. of Xew-

On Tuesday evening of tiiis week, a grand rally was ad
vertised to take place in Independence Square.
—J. C. C. writes from Seranton, Pa., Au

was held in that place on Saturday evening, the '.'th inst.
There could not, lie continues, have been less than five
thoetsanrl people present, and those the bone and sinew of
the Lackawanna Valley. The vast as-eniblagc was nhly
addressed hv the Hon. DAVID WII.MOT, who hacked and
scored the " Biiehaneers " and " Fillmoreites" most un
mercifully. The fact is. Wilmot is.a " whole team," and
with his valuable aid Old Luzerne can he redeemed and
placed in the ranks of Fremont and Dayton. There were
many old fashioned Democrats present who have come
out and renounced forever the Slavery Propaganda, and
are determined to act henceforth, and forever hereafter,
on the side of Freedom.
THE FOOTE AND FREMONT DIFFICULTY. —If
anything was wanting to put a crusher upon
the Buchanan lie that Col. Fremont assaulted
Foote, when both were members of the Sen
ate, struck him, aud then challenged him, ihe
following from the New York Jlcrold of Sept.
2S, 18. r io, when the difficulty occurred, answers
that purpose :
" WASHINGTON, Sept. 28, 18. r >o.—When a
fight occurs between two such prominent indi
viduals as Senators Foote and Fremont, the
public will naturally be curious to know how
the fight came to occur. The facts in the case,
as reported by a gentleman who happened to
be present, are as follows :
Mr. Foote, in debate, some time yesterday,
in allusion to the proposed legislation, asked
for information relative to certain land grants
in California, aud declared that such legisla
tion would be disreputable.
For this expression of opinion, Mr. Fremont
in the ante-chamber of the Senate, last night,
called upon Mr. Foote for an explanation.—
Mr. Foote promptly replied tlmt he would give
an explanation. He assured Mr. Fremont
that he meant nothing personal in the remarks
he had made in the Senate.
This was not satisfactory to Mr. Fremont,
who pronounced Mr. Foote to be no gentle
man.
As quick as thought fife?" Mr. FOOTE
struck Air. Fremont a How. The two Sena
tors clutched, or clutched at each other. At
this moment, Senators Clarke and Mangum
interfered and separated the combatants, who
uttered some terms of defiance at each other."
There was no motive for misrepresentation
at the time the above was published. Instead
of Fremont's attacking Foote, Foote attacked
Fremont,
SKXATOK SI MXF.n. —A correspondent of the
Sandusky lirgislrr, writing from Chelton Hills,
near Philadelphia, July 30th, gives an account
of a recent visit to Seuator Sumner. He says :
" I enjoyed last evening, a very interesting
conversation with him, and regret to say that
I was too fully confirmed in the apprehension,
everywhere entertained, that the injury he re
ceived from the blow in the Senate, which struck
down alike freedom of speech and the sover
eignty of Massachusetts, will be permanent
and fatal. Every remedy which medical skill
could suggest, a resort to the most healthy lo
calities, to the most healing waters, to the in
vigorating sea coast at Cape May and else
where, have wholly failed to restore strength
to his shattered frame.
" His general health seems partially restor
ed, his appetite reasonably good, and his mind,
ever glowing with the fires of genius and elo
quence, still sits enthroned within, unclouded
bv the shock. But his entire nervous and mus
cular system seems irrecoverably prostrated.—
If he assays to walk, his lower limbs refuse
their office, at least so much as to render the
attempt hazardous, without a helping hand.—
He receives no encouragement from his best
medical advisers that he can be restored to
health for years, if ever ; and his regret is
keen that he cannot, at this trying crisis of
our country, occupy his place of duty in the
Senate."
A Xew York correspondent of (he Bos
ton Journal says : " In conversation with Col.
FREMONT this morning, I asked him explicitly,
that I might authoritatively deny the story con
cerning his religion. "Colonel,are you a Roman
Catholic?" To which he replied, " I a/n not,
nor have I ever been ; and but twice during
my life do I remcnihor to have beeu in. idc of
a Catholic church." '

XF.W OKI.E AV.S, Alter. 14.
A terrible storm occurred in this vicinity on
. Smithy, which l&ftn} ull dgi. tijf all day
onMorulay. Tts effects, however, were most
disastrous at Last Island, a great summer re
sort, and which our accounts represent to have
been entirely inundated.
i Every building on the island is said to lmvc
i been swept away, and no less than one hundred
! and thirty seven lives arc reported to have been
! lost !
The steamer Star, Onpt. Smith, which left
here on the 9th (Saturday), with alargeuum
i ber of passengers, encountered the storm before
reaching Last Island, and became perfectly
: unmanageable ; she soon after became a com
plete wreck.
The scene among the passengers was terribc
l there being no less than two hundred and fifty
I passengers clinging to the wrecked fragments
the vessel, each anxiously waiting the arrival
' of some vessel to take them off.
Whether any of this company have been
1 lost is not yet known, though hopes are enter
j tained that all were saved, as. a steamer is un
! dcrstood to have gone to their relief.
Caillon Island has tJ*o been submerged, but
the accounts from thence arc very meagre.—
|lt is reported, however,that an immense artiount
I of property, and many lives have been lost.
The ships Howditch and Ellserlie, as also
I the brig Creole, which were lying near the
mouth of the river, have all been seriously da
nmgeil bv the storm.
i On the Lake and River we also hear of nn
inerous steamboats, llatboats, and other crafts
: being injured.
Nearly all the wharves at the watering pla
ces have been inundated, and the buildings
thereon—bath houses, AArc.—swept away.
Altogether the loss of property must be ve
ry heavy, but is impossible now to calculate
the amount.
The crops, it is feared, have alsosuffercd se
