Last. Thursday a doni'•ention of the Republic
ans assembled at Bufralo, ostensibly for the pur.
Posc of giving aid to Kansas. Governor Reeder
'wag present and presided. Gerritt Smith intro
duced Resolutions tofaise an armed force, and
one, hun . dred thousand dollars a Month to sup
port it. We make the following- extract from
his speech' on the subject as reported in the N.
Y. herald and Tribune:
-" Mr Smith continued to speak of the aggress
ions_of thd South, and said he only hoped to hear
of a cnilision at Topria—that he ~only desired to
hear of a collision with thefederalitroops, and that
INo-thern men had failcn—and then he would hear
it f Northern States arl aging • themselves against
the federal gocernment ; and trQuidthat be the end?
!No, Aftcsouri would be the nest .battkfteld; and
,then slavery would be driven to the wall. Her
;strength is only apparent ; it consists half i n
No them cowards. and doughfaces. It has been
, brave and rampant only because the North has
ded before. It will run when-The North faces it.
He beliered the time, had come to use physical
furze. If-the Conception thought with G-oser.
nor Reeder, th,at such was not the fact, with all
respect he could halt no symititthy with it."
We invite candid and patriotic , men to look at
this outburst of treason' above; quoted', and to
rAect upon it. Cog you any 10:ger doubt.that
this opposition party aims it the overthrow of
this goviirnment. -1' hope to bear of a collision
'With the Federal troops, say -Mr. Smith, and
then nr4ice that be,gives his reasons • for hoping
so. Because then !'t be would: bear of Northern
States arraying themselves AGAINST THE
FEDERAL GOVERNMENT." And then, too,
mark his langria,gP f - 7 ‘ Missouri i would be the
next battle ground,"that is, after the territories
were . d . isposed oPartil then slavers would befiriv
en to the wall !" ; :
Here .then we h'; ve the open 'declaration of
one of their - members, and prominent men, that
this ;tarty means' not only to interfere with sla
very in the States., but that they mean - to do so
by force of arms. I They mean to resort to the
bayonet to carry out:their treasonable designs .
And yet this is file party that is-inking the Amer
ican people to give them control of the govern
pent. Does anyone doubt the !Consequences 1
We de not beliei - o the masses of the pcopre mean
to do this—that they mean to involve' thicoun
try in civil war, butt their leaders do. Let the
masses therefore be no longer deluded by them,
and by their cry of !Freedom. i What kind of
. freedom do they :.oifer ? The freedom of the
bayonet. :They do not mean this difficulty shall
be peaceably settled: - - Smith says, he hopes to
hear of collisions •w i ith the federal troops, and
that northern men hive fallen, th'at is, been killed.
Look at the wretelriithus delighting in, blood, in
order to o situp his political ends.
We minim it that the time hail tome when we
had better try the streirgth of this government,
and see whether it is strong eiongh to protect
itself, from these mad disunionist*. Let Mr.
Smith, tberefOre,March his army on and come
in collision with the United States government,
* linthen we will have it demonstrated whether
th;
government can clefend Its4ilf spinet treason.
The Constitution defines what' treason is—that
it "consists in lere)lng war.against the United
States.", -And here, this man Smith, proposes in
the City, of Buffalo, to raise an armed force for
the parliMie of "arraying . themselves against the
federal or United States government. And he
1 further offered to - contribute slsuo per Month
himself to early it bn i All that is lacking to
make the Uvulas pprfect.andi Conelnsive is the
overt set of carrying his designs into execution:
To show that thißopublican party Sym
, wce,
in' with thi s: , ntiment. of Smith, it is
only _necessary to I quote_ further from the
speech. Here are is words - :-- -
a He ivuoted fr speeches a Mr. Atehin
t
son, and Mr. Rives. of Virginia, to, prove' that
the South . had - 4 Jared they would never
give up Kum% 'x n u ll they were forced to
give up .Slav . e bad also better athori
ty, for this, . tad oiM which hone in this Con
vention would .dispute., He had .a letter from
their-own .candids 4 forte Presidency, Col.
Fremont, who declarefthe same thing." -
Thus the reader will see that he declares
I - -
that he bads letter, from( Freitiont,: saying
.-7 .
-' tliset the - South *ill not i give .uP r itrim"
... 1
•-I • .
till they ma forced to give up Slavery ; and
u a dejection of purse, they must be forc
ed to give op Slavery in order to make Kan
wares. This ii the struggle, this the - issue
made up:—eivil war and all its horrors. This
is the precipice we aro approaehing.
R_, more pruilent than Mr.,
Smith. said :
When on thitrail of the enemy, against
whom his bad a deadly hate, he would follow
him vtith a cat like , wild, and would not
strike until he could strike him surely dead-
He wns,,therefore willing to wait until they
bad the power he would thushave used. He
did not wialuto give the South .notice of
their intent - lint by marching armed men in
to the Territory. The dragoons could go in
as voters, or to cultivate the sod, and strike
when the 'right 'time iirired. • When the
right came to strike, be wanted the
South to hivgi the first notice or the blow in
• the blow itself." -'
Eorron.
It will thus ,eett that itv,adr thought it
best to keep their designs covered tip till eTe
tythingia ready
.for the blow. •He would
play the "cat"—wuuid deceive the people
till - too Late for diem t ' defend thensolves.
We appeal to the people and at 4 if they
, .
are willing to trust. the f4tunes of the govern
meat
,in-the hands of ouch men • They talk
about the troubles' in Kansas, at - the same
time that they 'ire rai4ing money and troops
to continue thellunr -there, and when their
treasonable desgns are resir.ted by the govern
ment they cry. out that fteedom . -is trampled
upon ! , •And mote, when the goverimient is
trying to preserve order there, they, endeavor
•
to fan the lame of war. -Thiii* is the true
state, of 'the case, and we Lace no hope for a
peaceful termination - Of these troubles, but in
the election . .Statesman like, Bechanan,
pieilged: to putdow n traitors: Lie knows how
to do this, for he was With "Jackson when

the Black Republicans dread :him.
We were present, last Wednesday, at the
annual exhibition of this in'titution of learn
ing';loca ted at St liseph's Chocon at township
this Theelege is, in infancy,
it beitti but about far years since it was
first opened. Stticl, of Ibis time has been
anent in the erection.ofsnita able buildings,and
in providing accommodations actually neces
sary furaschotil even - on a limited scale.
The school is under the djrectirin of Rei.
dolls 011it.tv,--assisted by '.Rev. Mr.
WHEELER coda competent corps of Profes.
ore, and tutors. The. religious denomination
of the School is Catitolie, though 'it is not
exclusive. Protestants are in attendance,and
the religions predilections.of no one are at all
interfered with. The bnildings aro spacious,
and very well ,designed. Its seclnded loca
tion, entirely removed from the temptations
and vice , . of a towm, render it a most desire
able retreat for the young. Parents may feel ,
a perfeet security iu placing their Children at
St. Josephs, that, under no circumstances,can
they be exposed to the temptation to indo-
lence and vice, that .now generally surround
our institutions of learning. ) •
. In-many respects we were most_ agreeably
disappointed in our visit. We had no idea
that. this School possessed Anything like the
facilities which it (lots, nor did we suppose
that the institution had become a fixture, so
to . spesk, among the institutions of the Coun
try.. But so it is. Mr. has overcome
the most formidable obstacles and- has
succeeded now, through the liberality and
material aid Of friends, in placing the institu
tion on a solid pecuniary basis; and in
secutiug to it!a patronage, rapidly increasing,
teat fixes it beyond the possibility of failure.
We may now consider 1: as one of the estab
lished institutions of th c.:;ll.!ry, and as such
it is proper that its character should be scru
tinized by the public.
r We do not care e hat the religious caste of
a school rnaville. We will extend encont=
amement to'any -invitution for 'the promo
tion of education believing . that the
education of the mars.ei of the peoi 1 conduces
more than anything else to the putting down
of error-in whatever guise it may baclothed.
It, is in4lie soi 1 :of ignorance,. that error of
opinion, whethe of religion, or anything else
flourishes. In proportion as the mind is edu
cated and cultivated, in that . proportiori the
capacity foi. - develOping„ understanding, and
embracing Truth is increased. !Give - the mind
a liberal.eduCation in• the sciences, and * we
need not fear the influence of e - roneous
eons or pialitical doctrines. It will separate
Truth and error the same as separate
the wheat from the chaff. Schoole.then, un
der the mo•e• especial patronage of ;Religious
Societies are not objec.ts of dread in thisgov
ernment of 6ee diseurision. Many are drawn
into such schools, through the zeal of the
seci,:or by the philanthropic efforts of reli
gions beneficial associations, that would oth
erwise. grope their way through life k igno
mica, Thouriands of such may be found all
over the couptry, who have been educated
and become ornaments to ' - c. - cominunity—moit
valuable citiz.ens—.-who bat for such institu
tions would have been lost to society and the
world. Let no one then ; object to schools
under the patronage-of religious societies.—
They have their appropriate field Of enterprise
—a field that else would-be uncultivated:
We were forcibly struck with the exercises
as particularly evincingthe most careful and
thorough dil;cipline, both in the studies of
the pupils and in their conduct. We have
attended many examinitions- and exhibitions,
but we never have attended one showing that
the students were more completely disciplin
ed in all the: ,
points essential to the moat thor
ough educat ion than here. There seems/to
be no escape from the severe exactions
of thorough study and complete men
tal training. Several orations ' were rt a
vety high older of composition, / and the elo
cution generally was good/ About fifty
students were in attendance the' last term,
many of whom were (tom' a distance—same
from New . Rork and Brooklyn. Among
them me noticed a son of Limit. Mauray, o
tb. United States Navy, and others, eons of
distinguished citizens, whose -mimes we Fan
not now swan, .
Sarerid distingaithed Divines of the Cath-
St. Joseph's College.i

not,onlywi:th the exercises,but more with•the
feet that a school under such flourishing cir
curnstancea, is located in the • western part of
our county:, Its influence' ou the iintneiate

Hitherto the eastern section of,..the &minty,
