Tho Kansas Convention. Our mails from the north aud w*at bring ns full details of the meetings and doings of the Constitutional Convention, VTO nre our readers the trouble of wading tUrotigh them we condense the information which is contain ed in about a dozen ThOflay appoint ed fur the meeting of the Convention was the 7th. Forty-three delegates out. of sixty met at Lecouipton on that day, and in the after noon formed a temporary organization Corres pondents were present representing the Bos ton Traveler, St. Louis Democrat, Chicago Tribune, and New York Times. The last named correspondent was elected Secretary of the Convention. According to the letters of the Boston Traveler, the Convention is the i most intelligent body of men that the Pro Sla very party have ever yet collected in the terri tory. . This is a singular statement, however, as it appears from other sources that at least one lialf of the Convention is composed of the previous Border-Ruffian Legislatures. One of these, Mr. Little, was choseu temporary chairman, and another, Mr. llughs, tempora ry secretary. A committee was then npjioiiit td to examine credentials. The Secretary of the Territory produced a list of the " regular ly" elected delegates, numbering sixty. This, according to a statement made by General Calhouu, was all iu the shape of credentials that any of those sixty had. Rut there were other " irregular" delegates, both free State aud pro-slavery, elected from counties not tak en care of by the territorial authorities, aud debate arose upon the matter. A motion was made to accept the Secreta ry's list, but it was referred to their committee on credentials. On the second day this com mittee reported. The whole sixty who were in the official list were sworn without any other credentials. The two irregularly chos eu pro-slavery members from Shawnee county were also admitted, while two free State men chosen from oue of the southern counties iu the same manner were excluded, and their claim passed over to the special committee— Ou the succeeding day the convention adjourn ed until the third Monday in October, which is subsequent to the day fixed for the territo rial election, and no further action was had in reference to the two fiee State irregulars. Ao to the choice of permanent officers, it has already been stated that General Calhoun was elected permanent President, and Mr. Carry, the correspondent of the N. V. Times permanent Secretary. We learn from pub lished letters that a Roman Catholic priest was elected chaplain. The vote for President stood thus : Calhoun, 27 ; Elmore, 12 ; Kas tin, 6. General Calhoun holds by appoint ment frcm President Buchanan, the office of Surveyor General for the territories of Kan sas and Nebraska, which lie received through the influence of Senator Douglass. lie was formerly, and, it is said, still is, Bank Commissioner of the State of Illinois. He was also a member of Congress from the Springfield district of Illinois. During the whole of the Kansas troubles he has been one of the leading spirits on the pro-slavery side. On taking the chair as President of the Con vention, some of the telegraph despatches say that he declared himself in favor of submit ting the constitution to a popular vote, but none of the letters published sustains this, while the correspondent of the N. Y. Tribune says of the speech, that " It contained nothing of interest." The election of General Calhoun is supposed by some to be a triumph of the administration policy, if anybody can find out what that is. The letters are at v. r'ance on the subject. The correspondent of the X. Y. Times, who is the Secretary of the Convention, says that Judge Elmore, who was the opposi tion candidate for President, had previously declared in the most unequivocal terms his ap proval of the policy of submitting the consti tution to the people, while asserting his wish to see Kansas a slave state. He adds that General Calhoun had maintained the most studied silence in reference to his owu views on the subject, that he was supported by nearly all the ultra pro-slavery men, while Elmore was the candidate of the more moder ate members. A still more important fact is stated by this authority, which is that " a con siderable number of the delegates are known to be opposed immovably to the policy of sub mitting the constitution to a popular vote," and that there is another party in the conven tion, " whose policy is the same, though their aims are different." These admissions confirm the statements made in the Charleston and Richmond papers, to the effect that a large majority is opposed to a popular vote on the constitution. Toe Times' writer says that the ultras will attempt to frame a " pro-slavery constitution," with hold it from the people, and depend upon the Democratic majority there for success. He professes to believe that the Convention will not pursue this policy, and he goes on thus : " A majority of the Convention is, I believe in favor of a submission of the Constitution to the popular vote. It is true there are groat differences of opinion, even among those pledg ed to that policy, to the extent of the requi site qualification of previous residence. Some go for a twelve months' residence, some for six, some for three mouths', and a few, a very few, for no previous residence at all beyond the fact of proof of actual residence at" the time of voting, and of the animus manendi of the voter. I think it probable, that they will compromise on six months residence, and" that six months residence will elapse beftrexn the period of the framing of the Constitution in October and its submission to the people next Spring for adaption or rejection. I say the framing of the Constitution in October, be cause it is new generally believed, and many of the members of the Constitution state it as their belief, and hope that immediately after perfecting the organization of the Convention the appointment of the committees, and the assignment to these committees of their vari ous tasks, the Convcutiuu will adjouru until after the elections in October, so as to be guided in their subsequent and final action by the expressiou of the popular will as manifest ed in the interval. The meaning of this u, that the Convention has determined to await the result of the Oc tober election, in order to see whether the pro slavery party will still be able to triumph against an immense popular majority. If so the Constitution will be put to vote. If not it will be sent to Congress without. Here is the eat oat of the bag. As connected with this matter, we learn from various quarters that there is longer any doubt as to the pre parations going ou in the border counties of Missouri for auother. invasion of the territory to carry the October flection. The Herald of irte.dt>m which has d;sl>elieved and denounc ed the allegation, now gives its fall credence. *—xyutt/i ' i-\i n " sr;ibforb ileporifr. copiex for.. . £l2 Oft 10 copies fur Soo| 20 copies fur.... 1j oo AOVKKTISEMKNTS — For a square of ten lines or less, One Dollar for three or less insertions, and twenty jive rents for each subsequent insertion.

VOTES! VOTES ! We have printed a large supply of votes for the Republicau candidates, which our friends in the different election districts can procure by calling at this office. ARE YOU ASSESSED. Saturduy week is the last day,the law requir ing ten day before the election. Look to your own names, Republicans, and then those of vonr neighbors. Let not a vote be lost by in-attcntioii to the assessments. It should be known that to entitle a man to vote at the coining election, it is necessary that he shall be a resident of the State one year, and of the district or township where he offers his vote, ten days, and that he has paid a State and County tax which was assessed at least ten days previous to the day of elec tion. Young men, however, between twenty-one and twenty two, who are qualified in other re pccts are entitled to a vote without payment of any tax. And for the persons who have once been voters in the State and removed therefrom and returned, a residence of six months in the State is sufficient ; but in all cases where the payment of a tax is necessary, it must have been assessed ten days previous to the elec tion. NEW WORKS NOW IN PRESS.—T. B. PETER SON, No. 306 Chestnut street, Philadelphia, has now iii press, another work by that world renowned authoress, Mrs. Caroline Lee Ileutz. IT is entitled " TIIF. LOST DAUGHTER," and must prove to be one, if not the most popular work ever published, written by Mrs. Caroline Lec Ilentz. As a successful writer, Mrs. llentz, says the Dollar Xetcspaper, is, in our opinion, unequalled in the country. She combined pow er of delineation and grace of style in a re markable degree, and was a close observer of human nature, so that all her characters seem as natural as life, while she always had a moral aim in her writings, which commends them to the fireside of every family in the land as profitable and pleasant reading. We must commend to her many former admirers this posthumous edition of her last novellettes, and we are sure they will be eagerly inquired for. It will be ready for sale on Saturday, the 20th just. Complete in one large duodecimo volume, neatly bound in cloth, for one dollar and twenty-five cents ; or in two volumes, pa per cover, for one dollar. Another very valuable work, now in press, and which will be ready for sale on Saturday, October 3d,is entitled, " MRS. IIALE'S RSCEIITS FOR THE MILLION." This is indeed a useful book, being a complete family directory and household guide for the Million. It coutaius over four thousand five hundred receipts, facts, directions, knowledge, etc., in the useful, orna mental and domestic arts, and in the conduct of life. Price #1,25 a copy. This work too, we have no doubt, will have an extensive sale. Copies of either of the above will be sent to any part of the United States, free of postage, on remitting the price to the publisher in a letter. BaHf An unoceupied dwelling, belonging to I). CASH Esq., situated in the north part of the boro', was destroyed by fire Wednesday evening, 16th. The loss is small. As the building was not occupied the fire is suspected to have been communicated by design. FRANK PHKLPS ? GYMNASIUM AND AMPHITHEA TRE will perform at this place to-day. From the many flattering notices we have seen of PHELPS' institution we judge it has no supe .riora. Those who wish a pleasant entcrtaiu mcut should not fail lo be present. THE IMPORTANCE OF THE PENDING CON TEST. We trust that every Freeman in this County is duly impressed with the responsibilities which devolve npon him as an elector, and fully aware of the mighty issues depending upon the i result on the second Tuesday of October. The voter who fails to exercise the inestimable privilege of declaring his sentiments through the ballot-box fails in his duty to his country and himself. While he who does not exercise that privilege intelligently, fearlessly and honestly, is still, more culpable. Never in the political history of the country did there ever exist such a necessity for au expression of popular opinion as at the present moment. It is no exaggeration to say that the priceless liberties of our country are in eminent danger. The dearest rights secured by the blood and toil of our forefathers, are threatened, for the purpose of extending and aggrandizing Sluverv. All the safe-guards erected for the personnl security of the citizen are broken down to add to the value of slave property. The occurrences of the past few years should alarm the patriotic every where, and arouse Northern Freemen to action. If we are supine while Slavery-Propagandism forms its schemes, and employs the patronage and treasure of the country to consummate them, how long will be before the . white la borers of the North will be in the mercy of that heartless oligarchy, which looks upon Slavery as the natural condition of the poor laboring man without regard to color, and "free society" as a failure ? Are the Freemen of the North prepared to give up this Republic to the purposes of the Sla very-Propagandists ? Are they prepared to lay in supiueness while the great oligarchy perfect the schemes which shall Nationalize Slavery, and crush out the last vestige of Free Speech aud Free Thought'! Did our forefathers pour out their blood iu the Revolution for no nobler purpose than to raise npa nation which should devote its energies to the breeding of niggers ? Have we no higher duties, no lof tier aspirations, than to raise the price of the peculiar property ? Are not white men wor thy of some consideration ? Is it not an ob ject of desire with you, what shall be the con dition of your descendants, aud what privile ges they shall enjoy in this Republic ? Laboring men ! And who of ull those sturdy farmers who make up our country's wealth and pride, is not truly a laborer, and looks upon idleness and sloth as a crime. Free Laborers, who till your own lands with your own hands, and experience no feeling of deg radation, but rather exult in the pride of in dustry and independence ! Are you ready to inaugurate an era which shall degrade your labor, paralyze your industry, and bring you within the control of capital ? Are you rea dy to inflict upon Kansas an institution which you would not permit iu your midst ? In the providence of God, you may he turning vour eyes westward to secure a home for vourselves, or for your sons growing up around you. The fertile plains of Kansas invite you, with a ca pacity tor five miliums of inhabitants. Will yon doom it to Slavery, and deny yourselves and your children's children any participation therein ? If you would not, vote to save it from the dangers which now environ it. lii our judgment, the decision of the people on the Second Tuesday of October next, is of more moment than any election ever held in this country. It settles the question of the predominance of the Slave power, if after the Dred Scott decision, and Mr. BUCHANAN'S avowals in his late letter, the Freemen of this State are ready to vote for Mr. F ACKER. The question which was evaded and denied last fall, is now openly avowed and boldly met.— There is no longer subterfuge or dodging. Eu eouraged by success last fall, the Democracy have placed themselves upon the ultra Southern ground that the Constitution carries and pro tects Slavery wherever it extends. Pennsylvania was last fall, the battle-field of the Presidential contest, and has now become the battle-field of the cause of Freedom.— With the Keystone attached to the car of Sla very, our Southern brethren become our mas ters, and the schemes of Slavery propagation and aggression will be successful. With Penn sylvania Rcpublicanized, the banner of Free dom streams in victory, and the cause of Equal Rights is triumphant. Pennsylvania on the side of Freedom and the Presidential contest in 1860, is not questionable. Freemen of Pennsylvania ! Have you 110 interest and feelings identical with the people of New Hampshire, of Maine, of New York, and Ohio ? Are there any reasons why those old Democratic States should be now be strong ly and permanently Republican, which do not bear with equal force upon you ? Have you less interest in preserving intact the rights and privileges guaranteed by the Constitution ? Have yon less of interest in the Territories of the Nation, that you should be willing to see them stained with the curse of bondage ? ORGANIZE! ORGANIZE ! There are Townships iu this County where the Republicans are deficient in'organization. We urge upon our friends in such localities to immediately set at work to make arrangements for polling the entire Republican vote. Vic tory is within our reach, but to secure it, we must labor earnestly until the polls close. Coi.. BENTON lias been lying danger ously ill in Washington for several days, suf fering under an organic intestinal disease of several years standing, which within a week past, assumed so very serious a condition as to threaten his life. At present, however, he is said to be out of danger. ACTION ! ACTION! Once more we urge upon our Republican fiieuds in each township, the necessity for im mediate and energetic action. We are fear ful that our friends are being deceived by the preseut quieseeut state of parties, and will find on the day of election that our voters are not all out, while every pro-slavery Democrat will be on hand. We call upon Republicans to be gin the work at once. Our opponents are qui etly organizing, and are ready to poll every vote. They calculate upon reducing our ma jority in Bradford 2000 by the absence of Re publican voters. Shall this be ? Is there a Republican who would not feel ashamed to see Wll .MOT'S majority one vote less than that gi ven for Fremont ? He must recollect that the vote last fall was was the result of organi zation and labor. The same energy now will increase the majority to 5000. Shall those be the figures ? Let every man set to work to make the majority 5000 and it will be done. The plan of operations to be pursued is plain and easy, if our friends will arouse to the work. But it must not be delayed. Poll lists and teams only are required. A little activity on the part of every voter who feels au interest will save us from the mortification of a reduc ed majority in Bradford. Republicans, set about this work immediate ly. Let there be a meeting in every district and appoint committees to procure teams and see that the voters are at the polls. ARE THE VOTERS READY ? But a few days now intervene before the October election ? Are the voters of this County aware of the great importance of suc cess on the second Tuesday in October 1— We urge upon our friends thus early to make preparations for a FULL VOTE. In the strong Republican towns of the County, there is great danger that the votes will not all be out. Let arrangements be made to poll every vote. Your opponents will not lose an avail able vote. We must be equally active and vig ilant and a certain triumph awaits us, not only in the County, but iu the State. COUNTY FAIR. The Annual Fair of the Bradford County Agricultural Society will he held the present year at the Borough of Towanda, on the 15th and 16th days of October. The Committee have delayed advertising for the purpose ol ascertaining the precise time at which the Bridge will be passable. The list of Judges and Bills will be issued next week. By reference to the List published in the county papers some weeks since, it will be seen that the premiums on Horses, Cattle, Field Crops, and Agricultural and Mechanical Im plements, have been largely increased, which will insure a large and spirited competition. J. C. ADAMS, Esq, will deliver the Annual Address. % tQr We understand that the Teachers' Drill, held in Orwell during the ten days ter minating Thursday the 11th, passed off satis factorily to all concerned. There were 150 teachers in attendance, as we learn by the Su perintendent. The citizens of Orwell Hill had made ample provision for all, notwith standing the number was much larger than was expected. The whole affair was eminent ly successful, and should, we think, be en couraging to the individual standing at the head of the School Department in the county. We hope the townships more intimately con nected with the Institute to be held in the other sections of the County, will see to it that they prove as successful as the first, but wc understand that there was a committee ap pointed to prepare an abstract for publication, we will uot, therefore, anticipate that report. Boy The Junction Canal has been put in re pair, and this week some twenty boats from the New-York Canals arrived at this place for the purpose of loading with Barclay coal. We understand that a large number of boats are loading below with anthracite. A small break occurred below Tunkhannock, which has been repaired. Capt. Murray's boat left this place on Tuesday last for New York city, with a load of oars. ££2?* A young man named JEFFEKSON COOL BAUGH, of Monroe township, liad one of his feet torn from the leg, on Thursday, Bth, while employed with a threshing machiue at the barn of S. C. MEANS. The leg was bruised in a horrible manner as far up as the knee, so that amputation was necessary in order to save life. Dr. E. 11. MASON of this village, assisted by Drs. LAUD, NEWTON and ALLEN, performed the surgical operation, in a scientific manner. The patient is doing well. NAMES OF P. 0. CHANGED. —The name of the Asylum post office in Durell township, this county, has been changed to Frcnrhtoun ; and the name of the South Asylum office, in Asy lum township, changed to Asylum. Those sending communications through either office will please take notice, and avoid delay. THE TIUTMPH IN MAINE.— The election which has just taken place in Maine possesses peculiar interest, because the party lines were drawn with unusual strictness, and other ques tions than that of slavery extension kept ont of the contest. The Bred Scott decision of the Supreme Court, and Mr. Buchanan's offi cious endorsement of it, have practically been passed upon by the people of Maine. The vote this year was not so large as that of last year by nearly twenty-six thousand, and yet Mr. Morrill's majority is not much less than that of Mr. Hamlin. This result will exert a powerful influence beyond the borders of Maine. It will add thonsands to the majority of Mr! Banks in Massachusetts ; the Republicans of New York, Ohio aud Pennsylvania will derive strength from this success, and all over the country the friends of free labor will be en couraged to set. about organizing victory for the Presidential contest of 1860. —ivre. Post. TEACHER'S INSTITUTE. The first Teachers' Institute held in Brad ford County, commenced its session on Mon day, Sept. 7th, at two o'clock, P. M., at Or well Hill. The meeting was opened by C. It. Cobcrs, the County Superintendent, by reading a por tion of the Scriptures and prayer. One hun dred and twelve Teachers entered their names, and organized by electing Prof. C. R. Cobcrx Principal, O. J. Chcbbcck, President, and B. 13. BABOOCK, Secretary. After transacting necessary business, Prof. C. R. Cobur* ad dressed pointedly and briefly, those present, setting forth the object of their meeting, de siring them to apply themselves closely to their studies, stating that the ten days spent there should be days of hard mental labor ; the object was to acquire knowledge of the theory and practice of teaching as well as a more thorough acquaintance with the branch es to be taught iu our schools, and thus be come better qualified to perform the duties de volving upon them. After appointing the necessary committees, the afternoon session was closed by prayer by Rev. C. E. Taylor. The evening session commenced 7 12 o'clock, nud was occupied by a lecture by the Princi pal upon " The Qualifications of Teachers, *' followed by discussions upon subjects connect ed with the cause of education. Day sessions commenced at 8 1-2 o'clock, and were occupied by drills upon the several branches taught iu our common schools, except occasional singing by the choir, and short, pointed and impres sive lectures by the County Superintendent. The evening devoted to lectur ing, reading of essays, declamation and discus sions. Lectures were delivered by C. R. Co burn, Dr. 11. Kuapp, Messrs. O. F. Young, O. J. Chubbuck, AVm. Davis and Rev.'s 11. W. Barnes and Geo. Landon.—The closing exercises took place on Thursday evening, Sept 17th, consisting of speeches by several distinguished gentlemen present, and appro priate remarks by the County Superintendent, and valedictory by Miss Mary Iveson. Be fore the close of the Institute the names of Teachers on the roll had increased to one hun dred aud fifty. The manifest interest of the members of the Institute at its commencement, did uot seem to flag during its protracted exer cises in the least. Great uuauimity of feeliug seemed to pervade the minds of all that had to do on the occasion. Morning services were conducted very appropriately by Rev. C. E. Taylor, at which time the choir sang soul-stir ring melodies, selected from sacred music foi the occasion. Upwards of one hundred spectators visited the Institute during its sessions, and manifest ed great interest in its welfare. During the sessions of the Institute, a copy of Webster's Unabridged Dictionary was received from Messrs. Gana C. Merriam, of Springfield, Mass., and a Terrestial Globe from the firm of Merriam, Moore A Co., of Troy, N. V., as presents for the use of the Bradford County Teachers' Institutes. The presents were duly appreciated and heartily respouded to. Perfect order was maintained through tl e entire sessions, which rendered it not only agreeable, but perfectly satisfactory to all present. The members of the lustitute, as well as the public generally were fully convinc ed of the utility of holding such Institutes, as will be seen by the following resolutions which were unanimously adopted : „ w HERE AS, The public mind in its plastic forming state, is to a great cxteut entrusted to the care of Teachers, and upon them de volves the task of training and developing the intellectual, physical and moral powers of the youth of the country. Whereas the present condition of our schools shows an increasing demand for more thoroughly qualified, more energetie teachers, and those who feel more sensibly their responsibilities, and Whereas, judging by the interest awakened and the ad vantages received during the ten dayswc have spent in this Drill, we firmly believe in the utility of " Teachers Institutes ," when they are ably conducted and directed to their le gitimate objects, believing also that teachers' ought not and cannot afford " to spend their money for that which is not intellectual " bread uor their labor for that which satisfieth not. Resolved, Therefore, Ist, that we consider " Teachers' 1 Institutes ," highly beneficial to the cause of popular education and that we will use our united efforts to have them held in this portiou of the county as often as once a year. 2. That our efficient County Superintendent deserves the esteem and gratitude of the teach ers and friends of education, as well as the con fidence of the members of this Institute. 3. That we tender our sincere thanks to those individuals who have generously come forward and assisted in teaching, and have so ably discharged their duties in the capacity of instructors. 4. That our thanks are due and hereby ten dered to the ladies and gentlemen who have kindly favored us with interesting and instruc tive essays and lectures. 5. That we present our thanks to those who have contributed to so great au exteut to en liven aud make interesting our daily sessions by their soul stirring music. 6. I hat Rev. C Tavlor is pre-eminently en titled to our warmest thanks for the interest he has manifested and the services he has ren dered in our behalf. I. That we hereby proffer our hearty thanks to our President and Secretary for the able and impartial manner in which they have dis charged their duties during the session of the Institute. 8. That we tender our thanks to the Trus tees of the Presbyterian and Methodist church es, for the use of their houses in which to hold our meetiugs ; and also to the citizens of Or well ft>r the hospitality, courtesy and uninter rupted kindness extended to the members of the Institute and theiT friends, during our stay among tbem, thereby doing very much to make our meeting pleasant as will as profitable.
