The Abolition Stitte 'Wicket and the Fillmore
Mr. Filhantc it!ills 'es that the Frenionr pnr
ty labors to aeofttplifdt Disunion. This is
the substanee ',and superstructure of a ll hi s
late speeches. And at this demonstration-the
Tillirnorepivss and the Fillmore. leaders of the
Sod& bout in eestacy, ,while their friends
and renewers in the Free States e-e,tho their
acclamations. The ex-President is right.
his Albany - speech was a bold blow i t , t h e
right direction. But it is easy to deal in
words. We care nothing for Mr, . Fillmore's
onmsels if his friends do not follow them
-and we aver that they do not do so in this
State at the present moment. Let us present
the case exactly as it stands ; and we earnest
ly. invite the attention of the Scolthern people
—especially those who flatter themselves that
there is another party in the Free States hon
estly beund to . Constitutional docarioes—to
the dishonoring spectacle.
An election for State officers, and for the
State Legislature, and members of Congress,
will take place in Pennsylvania on the second
Tuesday of October next.. The Democrats
nominated a full State ticket in March ; laid
down a strict and - stern platform; met every
issue without hesitation ; and _grappled all
sorts of sectionalism and fanaticism without
gloves. The unanimity with which all this
was begun and consummated, attracted gen
eral attention. No name was placed upon
the ticket nominated by the_Democratie State
Convention that. was not as sound. as the reso
lutions themselves. So much. for the Demo
cratic party. How was it with the opposi
tion ? They, too, assembled in State Conven
tion, and placed their ticket in nomination.
Observe the cont9osition of the Convention. It
was composed' of Abolitionists and Know,
Nothings exclusively. Such disunionists as
Wilmot. and Jessup controlled it from the first
to last. An invitation was extended to the
Old Line Whigs, to take part in this Conyen
thm.
But it was Scouted and scorned. Not a
single Old Line Whig meeting was. held in
the State to choose delegates to this Abolition
and Know Nothing body.. The result of - this
Convention was, that a ticket composed of
full-blooded abolitionists was placed in nomi
nation: T. E. Cochran, of York, -B. Laporte,
of Bradford,Ond Darwin Phelps, of Armtroeg,
were put upon this fusion ticket. The first is
known for his violent and unscrupulous oppo
sition to the Constitutional rights of the South;
the second is Wilmot's own immediate.repre
sentative, and like Wilmot, a traitor from the
Democratic ranks, because of the principles of
the Constitution ; and the last is well known
in Western Pennsylvania as one of the most
offensive members of the Abolition and Know
Nothing party. 13oth Laporte and Phelps
were members of the last legislature,. and both
distinguished. themselves in that 'lardy for
their extreme and bitter. support of the whole
Abolition programme. The ticket, as it stands,
is an out and . out Fremont, Johnston, and
Wilmot ticket,. committed to all the infamies
of the Black Republicans; and, as a conse
quence, pledged to the Men, of dissolving the.
American Union—the great basis and fbunda
tion of the sectional movement organized to
elect John C. Fremont to the Presidency.
Such are the relative positions of the Dem
ocratic and Fusion parties in Pennsylvania.
Up to this moment no single step has been ta
ken by the opponents of Fremont knoWn as the
Hui - Totters of Millard. Fillmore, to nomitiate
Fillmore State ticket; and, if such a ticket
should be fixed npon, it will be settled only to
be withdrawn in favor of the Abolition ticket."
Mark the prophecy !
The olject ogrthe in.Pennsyl
raw'a is to assist the Abolitionists to elect their
Slate ticket in October, so Its to claim a victory
e'er the Democracy. To establish this -fact,
there is at banal al k n ralant proof.We have yet
14, see any objection made to the State ticket
-by .the Fillmore press. On the contrary, in
many of the counties, the Fillmore leaders are
now engaged in making such an arrangement
as will give them the county offices, or the
members of the Legislature, or the candidate
for Congress,
in return for their votes for.the
State ticket of the Abolitionists. And the lat
ter do not hesitate to'esult in the nrospect of
electing, their Abolition ticket, witli the aid of
those who rally round. a candidate for Presi
dent- pledged against Fremont as a man who
is in the bands of the enemies of-the Constitu
tion and the Union.
There have been - se) many of these corrupt
combinations in Pennsylvania since the:Abo
litionists and Know Nothings have 'usurped
and driven out the Old Line Whigs, that it
will be hard work for a few corrupt men to
;try over the same game, in a more profligate
manner. and with more unblushing effrontery
than heretofore. There was intense mortifi
cation among the Whigs after each of these
plots had been carried into effect; and thou
sands have sworn never again to be made the
sport of the gamblers that rule in the opposi
tion ranks. They have seen that such dema
gogues as Johnston, and Wilmot, have regard
ed- them 'as so Many chattels, to be used as
circumstances may suggest ; and we can
hardly suppose that now, with their eyes open
to this new effort making to betray them, and
to degrade them, they will tamely and un
complainingly submit to another humiliation
and outrage.
They Wince Under It.
If, ltS the fanatical Abolitionists maintain,
s. negro is as good as a white man, his equal in
every possible respect, why should they object
to being styled Muck Republicans ? They
profess: to have no prejudices on the ground of
,eolor 'or complexion, and . why then do they
look ,upon it as degrading to be designated by
this appellation.
A man is, known by the company he keeps. -
If from choice a white individual associates
with the blacks, why should he object to the
name black! If negroes ought-to be placed
upon nu equality with ourselves, what disgrace
is attached to those maintaining this theory,
if we call them negroes ? We do not exactly
understand their objection to the designation
which has been applied to 'their party. We
fear that their professions about negro equali
ty are not exactly sincere, after all the breath
they have expended in 'advocating the posi
tion.—Penits ylva ilia a.

ltrinarkal►M - Heroism of a Boy Nem Trays of
Under this heading, the San Franrisoo True
Californian, of June 14th, has the following
narrative:
The U. S. sloop of war Decatur. which ar
rived in this port yesterday, has brought in
telligence -of one of the most inhuman atroci
ties that can ho found in the annals of Lydian
warfare. On the morning of tho-Bth-of Oc
tober, 1855, while Mr. larvey 11. Jones, it
settler on the banks of the White River, in
Washington Territory, was lying sick in his
boil, a party of 'lndians commenced firing on
his house, and killed Mr: Jones at the first
volley. Mrs. Jones, who WAS eating breakfast
at the time of the assault, immediately return
ed the fire of the Indians with a navy revolver,
and after having succeeded in wounding one
of theni - in the foot, was herself shot in the
side, and thereby disabled from making any
further resistance, Immediately. upon her,
ceasing to fire upon them, the Indians ap
proached and set fire to the house.
At. this juncture a Lad named John J. King,
who is a child of Mrs. Jones by a former mar
riage, and but seven years of age, inquired of
his mother what he should do. She directed
him to take his brother and sister—the fOrm
er- two and the latter font- years old—and en
deavor to find shelter mu the house of a Mr.
Thomas, who resided two miles distant. The
little fellow immediately complied with the
request of his mother, taking the infant on
his back and his sister by the hand, and al
though an Indian exploded four caps in en
deavoring Jo shoot him, and 'was only pre
vented from further efforts by a popular su
perstition of his tribe, succeeded in reaching
his destination, only to be disappointed by
finding that Mr. Thomas himself had fled with
his family, and wits nowhere to be found.
The_ brave boy then continued his way,
down the river for another mile, when he was
met by a friendly Indian, who took the chil
dren in his canoe, and covering the two
younger with his blankets, proceeded o Seat
tle, where .they - arrived next day . , and \\TIT'
received on board the Decatur, which brought
them to this place. After the escape of the
children, the Indians dragged Mrs. .Lines
from the house by the hair, and killed her by
the blow of an axe on the temple. The body
of Mr. Jones was consumed with the house.
This statement has been furnished us by Mr.
John Small, a brother of Mrs.. Jones. The
children were treated with the greatest kind
ness by Captain Ganseyoort, and Lieuts.
Morris and Draki, and the other officers and
crew of the Decatur.
Three Persons Poisoned by a Surgical Ope
ration.—Tho Geneva (N. Y.) Gazette relates
the following singular occurrences:
Dr. .John Putter, residing at I'rattsburg,
Steuben county. brother of 1)r. Hazard Potter,
of this village, well known as one of the most
skillful surgeons in the State, was called up
on to dress a man's arm which had been mu
tilated in the cog wheels of some machinery.
lie made every effort to, save the arm front
amputation, and at the sacrifiee of -his
own
"life, he has probably succeeded. The
arm having maturated, he called on his brAher,
Hazard Putter, of this village, tit assist in
opening it. "During the operation he by some
accident cut himself slightly, and allowed
some of the virus from the arm of his patient,
tO mingle with the blood.. This in a few days
had so poisoned his entire system that no
earthly power could save him. lie died on
Friday last. While attending his funeral,
his brother Hazard, who had a slight scratch
on.his bawl at the time of performing the
-operation, and who had also become poisoned
by the virus, felt an itching about his fingers,
which proved to be the workings of the poison,
and although attended by all the physicians
despaired of.—__lnuther
man who risisted in dressing the 4raL was
poisontid and has Ai() died.
