    John Tan Boren InPcnniflrania.
•• Prince” John Van Suren, who led the
eboliiion or free soil movement in 1848,
which defeated the veteran Gen, Cass (or the.
Presidency, has been invited to Pennsylvania
to stump the State for Buchanan. This is
adding insult to injury, but if John will speak
in our State as his co-worker Gen. Dix is
doing m New York, he will win thousands
over from the Democracy. Gen. D. in a re
cent speech at Westchester, N. Y., said:
Now itlhappened that he was in Boston im
mediately after the Emigrant Aid Society
was lornipd, and, as it was very much talked
about there, he became acquainted with its
plans. These were to buy lands in Kansas,
to erect hotels for the temporary accommo
dations of emigrants, until they could con
struct habitations Tor themselves. The or
ganization, contemplating legitimate aid to
emigration, and obnoxious to no severer cen
sure than that of indiscretion.
So look out for John Van Burbn if he
preaches for Buchanan and Free Kansas I
Phila. Sun.
What the Democratic Organs say
of James Buchanan. —When the Hon.
William Bigler was running for Governor of
this Stale, the Cleveland (0.) Plaindealer—
an out and out Democratic paper—said of
James Buchanan : “ The small and malig
nant clique who wear the name of James
Buchanan on thfcir colors, are endeavoring to
sell the Democracy of Pennsylvania into the
hands of the South Carolina traitors. James
B.uchnnan never was elected by the people to
any office except when he was a Federalist.
He has not one drop of Democratic feeling
about his cold-blooded bachelor heart. He
could not receive the voles of one-third of the
people for any office. And yet by the force
of management of the basest kind of political
machinery, he has been able for years past to
crush the Democratic parly of this State,
(Pennsylvania,) to hang about its neck like n
millstone, to kill every progressions! thought
in its bosom. He and his tools virtually gave
the Stale to Taylor in 1848, and if Bigler is
defeated—a good and noble man—you may
charge it to James Buchanan, who, like the
old man in the history of Sinbad the Sailor,
now hangs on Bigler’s neck.”

Fighting for the South. —A number of
gentlemen called upon Mr. Buchanan, during
his recent visit to this city. The call was
made upon (he evening after the Shamocrntic
fizzle. Among these were a Virginian, a
North Calolinian, a Tennesseean, and a Penn
svlvam.in. All of them were ardent admi
rers of the Shamocntfic candidate. The
Virginian promised him 15,000, the North
Carolinian 10,000 ; the Tennesseean 5,000
majority in their respective States. Mr. Bu
chanan listened very complacently, and re
nlier
11 The South is the land-of sunshine and
promise. She ought to do well for me, Jam
fighting her battles''
If there were no other evidence of the sec
lionaltly of Mr. Buchanan than this, it would
alone he sufficient to convict him of the most
intense devo'ton to the South. He is not
fighting the battles of Pennsylvania, nr the
North, or the nation, but “ of the South."
It n well that this fact is known.
Sd disgusted was the Pennsylvanian, who
had been a life-long Democrat, that he left
tno company with the determination nl vo
ting for Fremont and Dayton.— Phil. Times
The Democratic Ft zle at Harris
burg,—The great Slave-Democratic mass
meeting look place here 10-day, and it was in
every sense of the word, a complete failure.
Notwithstanding every effort had been made
for weeks past to give a demonstration that
would carry terror into the ranks of the oppo
sition, the display would not frighten the little
boys, if instead of a select congregation of
spoil-hunters, they had been Governor Wise’s
redoubtable F. F. V. (Fu-fu-volunleer.s) Mili
tia. I counted the procession, and it numbered
less than five hundred, including the band.—
Allen of Ohio, Gov. Smith of Virginia, and
Dawson, ol Pennsylvania, were the principal
speakers, and as usual, made hundreds of voles
for Fremont. The whole affair was dull, tame
and spiritless. Hardly a cheer was made, and
Gen. Apathy seemed to have command. The
Fremont men are in high glee, as their cause
is strengthened by the display. I can myself
name fifty Democratic converts 10-day.
Lancaster Express.
The Squatter Sovereign, Mr. Buchanan’s
organ on the Missouri Border, in speaking of
Lane and the settlers whom he has conducted
to Kansas says:
“We must fight the devil with fire’’-scourge
the country of Abolitionism, Free Soilism,
and every other damnable ism that exists.
DESTROY THEIR PROPERTY, CROPS,
AND EVERY OTHER ARTICLE THAT
WOULD CONDUCE TO THE SUPPORT
OF ANY OR EVERY PERSON WHO IS
KNOWN OR SUSPECTED OF ACTING,
CO-OPERATING OR SYMPATHIZING
WITH ABOLITIONISM. This must be
done, or the Territory will be one continual
scene of strife for months to come. Do this,
and peace will be restored and quiet prevail.
It is not too late, the work should be carried
on vigorously.”
The Fillmobe Men are jubilant over the
pretended Union of the North and South
Americans of New York, and we understand
some of them are foolish enough lo offer to
bet on Fillmore carrying ihe State I The
union of the Norlh and South Atnerieans
there happens lo be like lh'* union of the
Hards and Softs—a kind of oil nnd wnler
mixture—and the result will be a five dava
bubble. The friends of Fhemont need not
be alarmed—he will carry New York with
not leaa than 20,000 majority—and more
than double that figure if the Rie-hanan men
(the Hards) do not go for Fillmore—which
we think highly probable—on condition that
the Fillmore men go for Buchanan in Penn
sylvania.
Kansas. —Mailers do not appear lo improve
in the doomed Territory. The Free Stale set
tlers are for the time being subjugated. They
do hot seem to fare any better under the Ad
ministration of. Gov. Geary, than under that
of Shannon.
The only hope for Freedom in Kansas
now rests, either in revolution, or id the
election of Fiibmont.
Letter from theßev. Hr, Nute,
We have been favored with the perusal of
a private letter from,,the Rev. Mr. Nute, in
Kansas,do a' geotleman in this city, from
which we. are permitted to make the subjoined
extracts. Testimony's!) direct and positive,
from a source so unimpeachable, cannot be
questioned. The outrages perpetrated on (he
inoffensive settlers seemed to have reached a
climax of enormity in the deed described in
the last paragraph below ‘.-—Boston Allas.
Lawrbncb, Kansas, Sept. 17, 1856.
Yesterday morning when I went into town,
as the sun was rising, (6 mail irijr letters,
among which , was one for'you, I, found the
enemy in motion, one regiment of aboul 400
horse going off toward Lecomplod j they had
encamped within a mile of town,'during the
night. The Governor spent the night in the
camp of the United Stales Hying' artillery
near them, some six to ten hundred more yet
remained between us and. the Wakerusa.—
The evening before, at the request of the
Governor, I tried to negotiate for the safe
passage of this regiment .over the Kansasol
a crossing several miles below Lawrence, the
Colonel in command, the same who bad me
prisoner, promising in a note which I look in,
to pass quietly and in perfect order. But be
fore our answer could be returned they had
moved on to encamp on the hill. Now, mark ■
the bloody treachery of the miscreants. After
getting a little over three miles from town on
the road to Lecomplon, and about one mile
from my cabin, they resumed their depreda
tions. Frst they look two horses from a Mr.
Thorn; next to him lived an excellent man,
David Buffum, who was badly wounded at (he
siege of Lawrence last December, and crip
pled for life. He was harnessing his horse
when he saw them approaching; a squad of
them broke from the ranks of the “ Kickapoo
Rangers.” He fled, as fast as his lameness
would permit, into bis corn-field ; they pur
’sued, overlook him and shot him through the
bowels. After shooting him, one seized him
by the throat, and drawing a revolver
threatened to blow his brains out; he begged
his life, and on finding that he was mortally
wounded they left him ; he died that night,
and I have just been called to attend his fu
neral to-morrow —the first of the martyrs
who has received that respect for the last two
weeks. A messenger came in and reported
to the Governor; he hastened on, and, tee
hear, arrested the murderer, who was after
ward rescued by his fellow-scoundrels. All
the U. S. troops have left us to-day, and re
turned to Lecomplon. Guerrilla bunds ore
laying waste the country south of us, burning
and butchering as they go. What is to be
the end of this no man can see. Mr. Buffum
was from Salem, Mass.
I have just hoard of ono of the’ most abomi
nable outrages on a woman that ever came
to my knowledge. She lived but a short dis
tance form us. Several fiends come to the
house in the night, took her out into (he bush
es, stripped her of every article of clothing,
lied and gagged her, and then proceeded to
violate her, one after the other to the number
of four. She was left nearly dead, but after
a long lime crawled back to the house and
aroused the other inmates, all of whom were
female*. I have taken some pains to investi
gate this story, and am satisfied that it is
true, I could give you a score of such dia
bolisms, but you will need no further proof
of the hellislmess of tho creatures whom the
minions of Slavery have let loose upon us.—
They think to drive us all from the country by
their horrible deeds. lam astonished a(
firmness with which o»r people stand these
ibinj;?. The heroic spirit is not died out. —
Such trials as these show the noble material,
that goes to make the lovers of Freedom and
of God. Yours ns ever,
Ephraim Note, jr,
N. B. Brtant, a prominent democratic
lawyer, of Concord, N. H., has left the Bu
chanan parly, and goes for Fremont.

Wheel, (called Groenlcaf’s gravity and percussion
Water Wheel,) one of which they have recently put
in a Saw Mill owned by Judge White of Wcllsboro’
and Dr. Archer of Morris township, and situated
one and a fourth miles from Babb's Creek, on the
Stony Fork. This wheel on Saturday the 7(h inst.,
drove a single saw to saw five thousand and one
hundred feci of white pine lumber; 4100 feet of
which was one inch in thickness, 400 feel 2 inches
thick, 500 feet 1J inches thick. This Wheel used a
very small quantity of water, only discharging about
90 square inches and with about lIJ feet head and
fall uf water while performing the above. These
Whcelsare well adapted to Ihp propelling of all kinds
of Machinery driven by Water power. They are
very simple and substantial in their construction,
and will do from one third to one. half more work
than any other Iron Water Wheel in operation in
this vicinity with which they are acquainted. They
offer for sale on very liberal terms the patent right
for Counties or Slates, and also to furnish and put in
