Two years ago we began early and earn estly to warn yon against the folly and mis chief into which bigotry and intnlersncs un der the name of Know-Noihingism was at tempting to seduce you. We tore the mask from the frtud and falsehood of bold, bad man, and exposed their deceit in It* foul hid eouiness. The timid were alarmed at onr fearlessness, aa week after week we exposed the oatha and plot* of the desperate conspira tors; but the dismayed Jacobins shrunk back in coward sbame un.ler the cover of night to tbair den of darkness. They tried to intimi date the irresolute, and buy the corrupt. A score of your number, honest but de ceived, left tbe-crew in disgust, and cine to thank ua for our timely and honest warning. They taw that the very initiation through which they bad passed was the trick of dem agogues who feared to trust one step with out an oath, and who fell there was no other strength or merit in the cause to bind its vo taries togslher. Through these, who left the Club to despise it, new exposure! came; and frath howling* of denunciation against us burst from the enraged den. The rescued thanked us, and the howlinga passed by us the idle wind which we regarded not.— If the blows we returned were heavy it was only because the attack upon us was malig nant. II any words were severe, it was our antagonists who first poisoned the weapons of the contest with acrimony, for bigotry is aver base. That same spirit which then deceivod un der the guise of Know-Notbingism has now assumed the name of Republicanism ; and instead of appealing to a religious creed it deal* In the distorted senlimsul of humanity. Its stock in trade is a morbid and sickly sen timentality—a base perversion from an hon est impulse; and iis leaders are the same reoltless adventurers who governed Know- Nothingism. When that party became odi ous these volatile spirits easily turned to the new one which rose upon its ruins. From Jo. Hiss and Ned Buntlioe to George Law you find this lha esse. The former clung to his first faith until he was expelled from office—the latter apostatised for Republican ism when his petty refused to nominate hire for tbe Presidency. Observe yon not that these factions are not, like the old parties of the republio, based cpon principles of political economy. They taot and rave of dangers and altrms but pro pose no remedy or cure. Two years ago they said tbe republic was on the verge of "ruin" from Caibolicism— now they cry it is just on tbe brink of destruction (for the six hundredth time) from slavery. See yon not (bat this new party is made op oi those for leaders who have been all things by luru and nothing long—tbe same who administered wicked oaths at Know- Nothing lodges—or acted aa conjurors at the silly farce of the initiation. Have they clung to any party longer than tbay thought it was popular or profitable ! Have they ever ex hibited constant principle, or was it not al ways tbe impulse that varies with every new wind of doctrine! And is there any consis tency or agreement among themselves even now t Do ihey even now agree in Cougreas; or why do ibey not act! They are in truth united in nothing, and consistent in neither prinoipie nor name, except in their hatred of Democracy. STATE CONVENTION. To-day the Dameeratio Stale Convention 1* in session et Chambersbnrg to nominal* a otndidate for Snrvayor General. It is lo be hoped thet e man will be chosen who will make the Slate Ticket invulnerable, and a* present indication* point to John Rows as the candidate, this wish will be gratified.— No county in the Stale has belter Democrat* than Franklin ; ind among such men as Wil son Reilly, John Rowe, G. W. Brewer and Col. On there it an honor and magnanimity that commands every man's respeol aud con fidence. Among Ibe editors of this State there is not a more maoly and independent herald of truth than Mr. Coopar of the Chambersbnrg Spirit; and it it from such man at tbe troe-bearted Democrats of Frank lin that a safe man oai be chosen (or the lioket, who will make it invincible. New Governor, The PreeideirT has nominated to the Sen ate, John W. Geary, of Penney lvania, to be Governor of Kansas, in tbe place of Shannon, removed.

" Fortune ! do thou but aid tne now, I And 1 will never trouble Ibee^gain." A CHANCE THAT SHOULD KOT BE NEGLECTED. Mr. Swan, of Mon'gomery, Ala., the old and honored public agsnl for the State in which he resides, has forwarded a pros pectus containing the plan by which Al abama proposes to endow her Southern Mil itary Academy. There are to be 30,000 sub scribers, and among those, on the 13th of August, will be distributed 15,185 "tokeus of gratitude" for their co-operation in such a laudable design. These 'tokens'vary through ■li gradations of hundreds and thousands, from a prize of SB, which is the lowest, up to the of Forty Thou land Dollars gold, without deduction or percentage! A person may become a whole subscriber for SlO, a half for S5, a quarter for S2 50, and who could grudge any of these paltry sums for such a chance of limitless prosperity! Whether is it better to invest a gold piece in a speculation which may rendsr you independent for life, or to squander it in debauch which will suiely in jure your health and your character ? How delightfully a wife might surprise a husband by saving the price of a ticket from the week ly expenditures, and some if successful, laying before him a sum of gold sufficient for all their future wants! Think of it, La dies. If orders are directed to S. SWAN & Co, Montgomery, Ala., they will be imme diately answered. Shooting a Man. On last Saturday Thomas Oldfield was walking along the public road near the Bridge at'lrondJle carrying a gun, when he was met by Thomas Hopkins, and a few words (not angry ones) passed between them. Oldfield was very drunk and Hopkins in a friendly manner urged him to put down the hammer of his gun which was drawn. Old field then drew up his gun as if to shoot Hopkins who ran to escape. But Oldfield fired and Hopkins fell. The gun was loaded with shot, and some sixty were found in the wounded man, who, however, was not dan gerously injured. Oldfield was arrested and brought before Esquire Painter who commit ted bim to jail, but subsequently left him ont upon entering bail in S3OO for his appearance at September court. Both the parties are foreigners. Berwick Camp Meeting. A Camp Meeting for Berwick Circuit will be held on the land of Alex. Jamison, Esq , (the same on which the meeting was held last year) in Salem twp., two miles north east of Berwick and one mile east of Foun dryville, to commence on Friday , the 22 d of August, 1856. A boarding lent will be erec ted on the ground. Ministers and friends from the surrouuding charges are respectful ly invited to attend. Oaeoflhe Tricks. The Know Nothing demagogues of Illinois lately made a bid for the "sweet German accent" by nominating a natnialized German for Lient. Governor. It was subsequently discovered that his naturalization papers were not as old as the constitution required, and so bis name was hauled down. Whig Connty Meeting. We are requested to announce that there will be a Whig county meeting in the Conn House in Bloomaburg on Saturday the 16th of August inst., at 5 o'clock, P. M., for the purpose of selecting delegates to the Whig National Convention at Baltimore. All who feel interested are requested to attend. X3T In the House of Congress last week, Mr. Carnlbers justified lb* repeal of (he Mis souri Compromise, and stated that the only political act of his life of whioh ha was a shamed, was the having joined the Know- Nothings. This he publicly repudiated, and, as an old line Whig, gae his reaions for prsfetring Mr. Buchanan to Mr. Fillmore, who he contended bad no chance of an elec tion. I On Taesday afternoon of last week, Baltimore, Washington and Cinoinnati were visited by a very severe thunder storm. At Cincinnati it wa* quite a tornado, uprooting trees aud blowing down bouses. HP* The Democratic county convention of Montour will be held on the Ist day of Sep tember-one week after the convention in thie county. W Signor Blitz entertained and amused a large audleoot in tbe Conrt-bouae on Wed* nesday evening of last week. OT At Davenport, lowa, prairie bey i* I selling for 97 and $8 par ton. iaed land.' I travel eight miles, according to the survey, tn>u,a 1 could fiod a aaffloieooy of limber to warrant me in an attempt to build a house. At Paw nee, the capital, aa projected by Gov. Reed er, or rather within a distance of five miles Irom that paper city, I succeeded in making a claim ol eighty acres, on which, alter much severe labor and privation, I succeeded in raising a house that would shelter myself and family. During all the time of my struggle in the wilderness, I was aided and assisted in every way by my neighbors, Missourians, and, indeed, never even had to watt longer for their help than they saw wherein they oouid assist me. My oltim made, and my house,such as it was, completed, I started for Kansas city to bring my family out. Judge of my feelings when t learned that for nearly tho whole time of my absence my child bad been lying at the pbint of death, and my wife, the mother, among strangers. And remember tlso, that these stracgers were all 'border ruffians!'— Of coarse I was anxious. I questioned my wife, how did you get along! What did yon do ! Why,she answered me, no people oould be more kind; all took an interest in | our suffering and sorrow; I never saw a more kind hearted and generous people. I was astonished, i confess it. Of course I said but little—whet could I say 1 They asked me— the 'border ruffians'—of my politios. I told them I was an out-and-out Free State man. The answer was invariably—That's tight, Mr. King, vote jnst as you think—we wish every man to enjoy his own opinion.' For many weary day* I walked aronnd, wailing for the returning strength of my clild, .and during these days I saw many things that would have been disbelieved by mysell if stated to me before I left Racine, and while I was a reader of and believer in the New York Tribune I saw many, very many, poor ■ families landed at Leavenworth—sent on by the New England Aid Society, who had not the means to bury the dead of their compa ny. Men, women and children were there sent on by these Aid Societies without fundi* to purchase one meal of food after landing They ome there, expecting no one knows what, but in as destitute a condition as ever emigrants landed at the docks of New York. The men of Missouri, the 'border ruffians,' took them into their homes, they fed them— the living ones—and buried the dead—they gave them clothes, food and kind words; they acted, in short, the part of noble, gener ous, Christian men, and their reward has been abu*e, contumely, and misrepresenta tion. Thai the men o< Miasouri felt and feel ag grieved ia not to be wondered at by any who know anything of the faote. They have been flooded by eompaniee eent on by 'aid socie ties,' of men who at home conld not com mand the reaped, hardly the forbearance of the communitiea in which they lived; they have been obliged not only to feed these men, but to listen to their scurrilous abuse, and now, when they have sought nothing more, as I well know, than an equal and ju-t share of the advantages ol the newly opened terri tory, they are belied by press and pulpit through the entire North. As I said before, I hate slavery, and never by act or word will give it aid or countenance, but, I hate it so much that I cannot bear even to see the mis taken, (though I believe honestly mistaken,) supporters of it lied about and abused. Fremont a slaveholder! The fact that Col. Fremont is, or has, until recently been a slaveholder, car. no longer be denied. A gentleman now residing in St. Louis, who ia well known in Penn Yn, N. Y., writes to a friend in the letter place: " Within the last year I have had occasion to transact business with, and frequently been at the hooae of Col. Brant, and several of the domestics have from time to lime been point ed out to me as the Slaves of Col. Fremont, and these are not all either, as he owns many otheu, male and female, hired out in vaiious parts of the City I" The house of Col. Brant ia the place at which Col. Fremont makes it his home in St. Louie. The writer of the above paragraph says: " Col. Brant ia a particular friend of mine. I visit his housa frequently. He ia a man of great wealth, and married, as you know, a sister of Col. T. H. Benton, who also makes it his home there siooe Mrs. Benton's de cease." The Providence Post adds to this testimony: "That Col. Fremont did own slaves three months before his nomination, has beeu prov ed. That he does now OWN SEVENTY FIVE is positively asserted by the Hillsdale OasnUe. OF" Railroad bsllotting for President ap pears to be about the only active boisness at the present time. It is a little curious that the political papers of each of the three par ties invariably show that these evidences of popularity always favor their side. There must be some polities! jugglery in this, some outside ballot-box stuffing. EV The notorious "Ned Buntline" has been making Fremont speeches at Williamsport and Jerseyshore. All that class of desperate adventnters have left the sinking ship of Know Nothingism and taken to the trade in negro sentimenlaliem. Vide George Law arid Jo. Hiss. The two branches of the Democratic party of New York met at Syracuse last week and nominated A mass J. Parker for Governor. A harmonious spirit pievaiied. Ot Game is sent in large quantities from the interior of California to Ban Francisco, where it sells readily for three hundred dol lars per ton. IV Messrs. Brooks and Keitt have been re elected to Congress from their reapeotive dis tricts. IV At Carlisle last week five barns end one dwelling were destroyed by lightning. Tbs bsrns were filled with new crops. there were as many Old Line Whig* preient M Democrats— and four Old Lint Whigs ware among the (gators of the day, Colonel George E. Hodge, Hansen L. Penn, of Ohio, Thomas B. Stephenson, and James B. Clay, a son of the immortal "Harry of the West." Colonel Stanton came forward and begged to introduce to the meeting the son of one who, in his day, bad been idolized by bis friends and neighbors—by every Kentuckian —as the great champion of out Union; be presented JAMBS B. CLAY, TILB SOS OF TUB IMMOITAL "asaav or TUB WBST." At this announcement there arose a wild shout of enthusiasm and joyful welcome from the vast multitude. The ladies arose from their seats and waved their handkerchiefs, the men sLouted to the very top of their lungs, young and old united with one of the most earnest and tumultuous ezhibitions of real feeling we have ever witnessed. Mr. Clay seemed to be much affoeted by these dem onstrations. In a vary clear, modest and manly tone he proceeded to address them. We m our lives, more surpris ed than by the speech of this gentleman.— We have been led to believe that be was a person of rather cold nature and ordinary nat ural powers. Doubtless the great fame of his father has stood in the way of the just ap preciation of his talents. The very name be bears—his relationship to ike great man of tbst State—hasprsvented him from assuming a prominent position in publio affairs, and created against bim something like jealousy in the breasts of bis father's old friends and' admirers, who could not bear to see any one of the nsms and lineage of Clay attempt to follow, at how great soever a distance, in the footsteps of their illustrious chief. These in fluences have depressed Mr. Clay's reputatiou much below the measure it is justly entitled to, and produced a diffidence and distrust, which some of the very people who cherish the fame of hia father with so much jealousy have mistaken as tnisrepresemed as indica tive of a cold nature and intellect. All this, I we are satisfied, is strikingly incorrect and unjust. The speech delivered by Mr. Clay on Saturday presented the man in his true and natural character, and the effeot of that speech was a proof of its sinoerity. Mr. Clay said that he was a quiet farmer, and had taken but little part in public affairs. He was a comparative stranger in bis own State. There was not a half dozen familiar faces in the great crowd before bim. But he had been calumniated by the press—be had been denied the right, unless at the hazard of ! the moat bitter and malignant personal de traction, of taking that course in political af fairs which bis judgment and conaciano* ap. 1 proveu. ne Had Bfcen painted as a monster of political tergiversation and infidelity—bis own and the heart strings of bis family had been lorn by fbe vile abuse to which be had been subjec'ed. He now appeared before them to show what manner of a man be was, to justify his fellow-countrymen the consist ency and honor of bis conduct. Mr. Clay proceeded to ear that he bad no blood in his reins which did not flow in an honorable channel and from an honored source. It was not in the nature of hia race to be faithless and treacherous. There was Done of that race but had borne a true and pa triotic heart in his bosom. An uncle bad fall en, gallantly struggling against the sarages at the Riser Raisin. Many now present re membered that gallant man who bedewed the dark and bloody ground with his heart's blood. A brother had fallen at Buent Vista, fighting for the honor and flag of bis country, and, eren when disabled and prostrate from many wounds, when last seen be still resist ed and combMediha enemies of his coun try. Last and greatest of his name—greatest that erer had been or erer would be—bis fathsr, had lired for bis country and for the Union—had exhausted bis days in the sere ices of the Republic, and had imposed on all who were connected with bim, as their high est and moat sacred duty, to give their best efforts to the maintenance of that cause to which his great heart and talents were so long consecrated. In the performance of this object, Mr. Clay said he came there to strike one blow for the Union. He then proceeded to show that the banner of the Whig party had been furled and laid upon hia father's grave. Its ap proaching dissolution was announced in the canvas* and success of General Taylor, who refused to acknowledge himself a Whig— Indeed, in death hesan ttiai piny ae olared success to be its great object, in oppo sition to the sentiment of Henry Clay—that it is bettar to be right than to be President. He had clung to the old party in its dying, as be had in its proaperon* moments, and when its final dissolution was proclaimed he looked around to see where be should go. He felt himself in the embarrassment in which the Sage of Marebfield once found himself. He had entertained opinions in fa of Native Americanism, and published the first-articles that ever appeared in Kentucky on that subject. So hearing that there was a party organizad on that idea, and which at the same time proclaimed very high-toned and patriotio national objects and spirits, though he entertained mnch repugnance to secret societies, be was persnadad to present himself for interrogation at the portals of one of the lodgea of the so-called American order. As the obligation of secreoy bad been remov ed Irom aUpersmaiq reference to that order, he (Ml there occurred. Ha was asked what hi* name, where he was bom, what religion he profesaed, what wae the religion tf hu wife, and, finally, would be not bind himaelf never to vote for a Roman Catholiot When this question wss pat to bim be withdraw in diaguat. That was no place—no party for him. What then wae he to do I He loekid around again to aee if Iharc waa not a chance for the resur rection of the Wjiig party. Not a gitim of volve the disrupron of this Confederacy. On this point, be read Mr. Fillmore's Albany speech, the spirit of which he greatly ap plauded. He should aot in the spirit of that address, and give his vote to the party which ! presented the best prospects of success a gainst this pestilent and dangerous sectional movement. He could gpe only in the Dem ' ocratio party the power to debat ibis party, and be should therefore give Sis cordial sup port to Buchanan and Breckinridge. Mr. Clay then proceeded to show what he considered the utter hopelessness of the un dertaking to elect Mr. Fillmore and the effect which the persistance of suoh an effort must have to weaken the Union party. He spoke of Mr. Fillmore with great respect, as his fa thor's and bis own friend. Though appoint ed, by General Taylor, as a minister of our Government abroad, he bad been sustained by Mr. Fillmore, and received the unusual compliment ol being noticed favorably in one of the Presidential messages. The gdmiois tratiou of Mr. Fillmore has been one of the most successful and satisfactory since the days of Washington, and if he thought there was a chance of bis election he would sup port him ; but there not being a ghost of a chance, he would not for personal preference, hazard the success of the only party which now has the slightest prospect of success in defeating the sectional and disunion party of the North. Bat he confessed, if he deemed it wieeend patriotio to vote for Mr. Fillmore, it would certainly be a hard task to take him with the candidate foi the Vice Presidency, Andrew Jackson Donelson, who, besides being a ren egade trom his own party, had quite recently been the reviler and defamer of Mr. Fillmore, and of that administration which gave Mr. Fillmore the high consideration and olaims that are now acoorded to bim. The vote for Andrew Jackson Donelson in preference to John C. Breckinridge was certainly a hard alternative for a Ken'.uekian. Breckinridge was his townsman, the play-male of his in fancy, the companion of his boyhood, his friend and intimate at all periods. Breckin ridge bad additionalolaimsupon him. When he was elected over General Leslie Combs, to represent the Ashland District in Congress, Mr. Breckinridge bad asked a friend of his father how Mr. Clay would receive him if he should lake the liberty to.call on bim. "As a gentleman and a Kentuckian," was the re ply. Mr. Breckinridge accordingly came, and he (the speaker) was present at the interview. Mr. Breckinridge stated to Mr. Clay !h*l he had called to pay his respeots to him; that, though the opposite political party, he bad oeu cuosen to represent me district which he (Mr. Clay) had himself represented wiib so much renown and fidelity, and he should consider hitr self—yeung and inexperienced as he was—quite incompetent to do justice to the'high duty he had assumed, without the counsel and aid of Mr. Clay, and he desired permission to consult with him freely, when be should enter upon his duties, and to re ceive the aid of bis great experience and knowledge of political affairs. Mr. Clay was much pleased with this interview. It pro duced an impression on his mind, and his regard for Mr. Breckinridge was ever after ward warm and earnest. And now lam ex pected to throw aside snoh a man and vote for Andrew Jackson Donelson. "Why, fel low-Kentnckians," exclaimed Mr. Clay, "I would not give John C. Breckinridge for a woods full of Andrew Jackson Donelsons." In this connection Mr. Clay referred to the eloquent, just and noble eulogium pronounc ed by Breckinridge in the House of Repre sentatives, on the announcement of his fa ther's death. Mr. Clay thee proceeded to urge upon hia old Whig friends, the companions and con atituents of his father, to rally aronnd that banner which he had spent hut life in uphold ing—the banner of the Union. He wai ready to follow the Whig standard as the Dooglaa followed the heart of B,uce—as long as it waved. But the flag was no longer to be seen on the battle-field. It might yet be nn futled. Alter death there was the resurrec tion. But at prasent there was no Whig or ganization, and the only psrty of the Union was that of which Buchanan and Breckin ridge were the candidates. Mr. Clay referred to the attempt to impli cate Mr. Buchanan in the charge of bargain and corruption. On that subject he proposed in un, ineitinony ol bis own father, and be read from Mr. Clay's letter to show that Mr. Buchanan had conducted himself in that affair as a man of truth and honor; be should believe what his father eaid before others.— Besides tbe evidence be had read, there wae other testimony bearing on the earns point. In feeling and eloquent terms he referred to the heavy weight of that charge against his father, and how gallantly and bravely be had borne it. Thank God iidied before bis father; and now, he was proud to say, that there lived not the man who wonld whisper it— But Mr. Buchanan waa free from all connec tion with tbe matter. Mr. Clay then concluded with tn eloquent appeal to his fellow citizens, especially old liae Whigs, to give their cordial support to the Union ticket—to Bochanan and Breckin ridge. • The Cool cf Spirilualiem.—The editor of the New York Pathfinder, formerly a spiritual tat, ■ays; "We know one individual in this city who baa spent upwards of twenty-five thous and dollars in promulgating spiritualism within tbe last two years, and probably will spend twenty-five thousand more before be discovers ths old adage that a fool and bis money are soon parted."
