HON. I AVID BARCLAY.
The Clearfield Republican, of last wcok, is
down, "like a thousand of brick," on Hon. D.
Barclay, the member of Congress from this
district, for doing an act, than which there is
not one in his whole official career more in ac
cordance with the wishes of a majority of his
constituents namely, for moving a reconside
ration of a vote which resulted in the House
adopting the bill to admit Kansas under the
Topeka or Free Constitution. The contortions
of the Republican are as amusing, as its wail
iogs are plaintive and vengeful in turn, and
the Honorable gentleman had better look to
his own safety lest, under the scathing and
withering fire of our neighbor, he sink into his
political grave, '-without benefit of clergy,"
or privilege of resurrection.
If we recollect aright, this is the same "lion.
D. Barclay," who, the Republican last winter
said, was niado the object of the most intem
perate and vindictive abuse by both the Know
Xothing and Abolition organs of tins district,"
"altogether without cause," and that it was "un
fair and unmanly" to charge him with betray
ing the principles of those who it alleged a
bused him at that time. So long as he stuck
to and carried out the views of such Locolo
cos as the editor of the Republican, he was re
garded by the latter as all right a good and
consistent man a paragon of uprightness, and
a perfect political Israelite in whom there was
no guile. Even if, peradventure, he betrayed
the Americans and Frcesoilers, to whom ho
in a great measure owed bis election, it made
no difference ha was doing servico to the
Democratic party, which was all-sufficient to
icuse him in the eyes oftho immaculate ed
itor, for tho commission ol a mu.Uitu.da of win
of a like nature.
At a later date, however, Mr. Barclay mani
fested a disposition to waver in his subservien
cy to the Slavery Extensionists, and in about
five weeks from the time when our down-town
"neighbor" took him under his special pro
tection, he placed himself, by interrogating
Mr. Aikcu regarding his views on American
ism, which the Republican alleged was the
cause of Banks' election, in an "inexplicable
position," which the editor "deeply regrets."
But the latter, in the plenitude of his forbear
ance, was willing to wait and hear the explan
ation of Mr. Barclay, who, ho said, "until
within a few days of the end of the struggle,
was among the mossteadfast in resisting the
schemes ol the Republicans and Know Noth
ings, and then only gave signs of restivoness
by lavoring the plurality rule-" "And who
would not grow restive in a nine week's con
test of this kind V asked the editor of the
Republican, M ho was still willing to apologise
for him, hoping, no doubt, by the practice ot
leniency to bring him back into the fold of the
faithful. But, alas! for the uncertainty of hu
man calculation ! those hopes have been frus
trated the Democracy, pure and undefined,
have at last been "betrayed" Mr. Barclay has
committed a grievous sin the guillotine is e
rected, and his head is in imminent danger.
For our part, we believe, so long ns Mr. Bar
clay votes in favor of admitting Kansas with a
f.-ee constitution, he will bo actiDg in accord
ance with the views ot a large majority of his
constituents, and tho dictates of humanity and
justice ; but by doing so, he would undoub
tedly arouse the irate feelings of the editor of
the Republican, who would heap malediction
.after malediction upon his devoted head until,
in the agony of his heart, Mr. Barclay will, like
Cardinal Wolsey, be constrained to exclaim :
"Had I but served my God, with half the ical
. I served my party. Uo would not in mine age,
Have left mo naked to my enemies !"'
Vetoes Vetoed. Legislation, in onr Con
gress, seems to have taken a turn somewhat
independent of the Executive, since the Cin
cinnati Convention. The threo tills which
the President had vetoed, for the improvement
of the Mississippi the St. Mary's and the St
Clair rivers, were ou the 7th passed by tho re
quired two-thirds vot in the Senate, noiwith
ttanding there is a large democratic majority
in that body. The presumption is that in the
lower house, wLere the administration is in a
ainerity, they will be carried in the same
way. Truly the respect for the Presidential
Uictutu has ranch diminished since the incuni
bent of the otUcc failed to receive the Cincin
nati nomination. Tarty policy would never
have permitted a can dilate (or re-election to
receive to decided a rebuke it the hands of
his own party as is to be found In the votes of
the Senate on the occasion mentioned.

For the "Raftsman's" Journal.
Mr. Editor. Our thiid charge against the
chief Magistrate of our Republic is that ol
"official disfionesty," in removing competent
and honorable men, and promoting armed ruf
iians to office.
This charge no American, that knows any
thing about the Fierce administration will de
ny, lor with few exceptions, all the appoint
ments from the Cabinet, down to a post-masters
clerk, are selected from tlie masses ot the
foreign population, and from the pro-slavery,
incendiary border-rullian class of inhabitants,
so much so, that the present Administration
has become noted both .in Europe and Ameri
ca, for its hostility to almost every form of
Protestant virtue, and the Ministers of the
Oosnel of all anti-Komun Catholic denomina
tions, are everywhere condemned, and from
the Executive to tho lowest Administration
paper, are forbid to either speak or vVito a
gainst the burning wrongs of the Pierce dy
nasty, under the pains m:d penalties of the
most tyrannical rebuke,and withering censure.
But what else can the upright moral portion
of the people expect, when the nine-tenths of
the thousands of office-holders, under the con
trol of the President and his cabinet, are mis
sionaries for the extension of human slavery,
and pioneers under Franklin Pierce, the Uer
ostratus of America, to conduct the "peculiar
institution," witli all its social and political
wrongs, over the territorial empire of the free,
and fruitful region of the great south-west,
until our illustrious Union shall be dissolved,
and like the Ephesian temple, its only glory be
the epitaph of its desolation. Weil may the
freemen of America tremble for the safety of
the temple of our li!erty, that was reared by
tho exertion, and cemented by the blood of
our fathers, when we see the chief Magistrate
of tho nation, removing competent, honest and
good men, and promoting to high ofLcial sta
tions in the Government, the intemperate, base
and unprincipled classes of both Europe and
America. The right of a people to elect their
own reprcsentati ves,!ias been taken from them;
the judges of their own choice have been driv
en from the polls, and drunken rufihns appoin
ted in-their places ; the ballot box corrupted,
and all its most illustrious privileges over
thrown ; and citizens under penalty of death,
to vote for men of their choice, were forced to
stand aside and sec their elections conducted,
by foreign mobs of brutal ruffians, electing
from a neighboring state, a band of drunken
slavery propagandists, as the lit representa
tives, to make laws for a free people, that had
no voice in their election ; and v et these un
natural, unconstitutional, and unchristian acts,
were all sanctioned, sustained and carried out,
by the President Franklin Pierce, and approv
ed of and endorsed by James Buchanan, the
present Democratic aspirant to the executive
chair. And to complete his reign of terror,
Pierce has not only removed good men, from
the smaller offices of the Territorial govern
ment, and put bad men in their places, but he
lias even took from the Governor's chair, (for
daring to do right,) that great man Andrew II.
Reeder, one of Pennsylvania's noblest sons,
and appointed In his place tfre drunken and
tyrannical Shannon, who is now at the head of
the slave power in Kansas, witli "his horde of
ruffians, plundering, imprisoning, robbing and
murdering the inoffensive, and peaceful inhab
itants of an American territory ; and because
commander Sumner would not burn the pro
perty, and kill the people of Kansas with as
much haste as Pierce required, he was remov
ed aud the slave-murdering Harney appointed
in his place. Will it be denied then, that tho
rtesHleilt Is cntctailT Ulstitrucst ttr itim,nig
competent and honorable men and appointing
armed ruffians to oflice ?
Who that has an American heart, can read
thus far the history of the present Adminis
tration, without weeping over the desolation of
bis country, or burning with tho patriotism of
the Revolution, to right his country's wrongs.
Our Democratic fathers of seventy-six, gave
up their wealth, and shed their blood, to estab
lish "THE FRKKl.OM OF Si'EECH AND THE LlB-
ertt or the Press," to every citizen. But
the Democracy of the Pierce administration
is directly the reverse. It forbids both the
freedom of speech and the liberty of tho press
under the awful penalty of death in a territory
of tho United States. And under this very
law, Printing presses have been, and arc now
being broken up and destroyed; and Ameri
can citizens tortured and put to death, under
tho horrible inquisitorial administration of
Pierce, for exercising that sacred right, for
which many of our illustrious fathers have left
their bones to whiten the battle-fields of our
once free, but now fettered and wounded coun
try. And yet James Buchanan, the man that
the Democrats are about to vote for, for Presi
dent, has sanctioned all those loreign, monar
chal, anl bloody laws, and declares that he
will not add to, nor take from, tho Pierce plat
form a single plank. He is pledged then, if
elected, to earn' out all that Pierce has com
menced, which will finally end in the breaking
up of our Union, and the destruction of our
Constitution. We then say to every Ameri
can citizen, next to God, remember your coun
try, hold sacred as your own blood, her free
dom of speech, and her liberty of the press,
for if these fall as they have in Kansas, we are
at once a nation of slaves. But you may in
quire, who will bo the standard bearer of the
people ? We answer, the Explorer, the Hero,
and the Statesman, John C. Freemont, that
honest, competent, and great man, who has
done more real good, fur the American peo
ple, in the field of discovery, science and ag
riculture, than any other living man. In vain
the desert with its torrid heat, and cloud cap
ped mountains of eternal snow, opposed his
march. He swayed to the utility of his be
neficent enterprise, even the savage tribes,
until the banner of his country's glory was
planted on plain and mountain from the "shores
of the Missouri, to the margin of the Pacific
Ocean, making way lor the march of freedoms
millions until the desert regions of the migh
ty west, shall resound with agricultural cities,
and commerce, and her industrious popula
tion, hail John C. Fremont, the American Co
lumbus, as the triumphant leader of national
freedom.
In reference to the 'Rcpvblican'' man, I would
prefer when lie attempts to quote from rue,
that he would do it correctly. In mv last com
munication I stated, that "every owner of five
slaves has four votes, and every owner of one
thousand slaves has six hundred and one votes
in representation." But the editor of the Re
publican declares that 1 said, the slave-holder
had these votes of the election, and theu char
ges me with untruth. Tow almost every per
son that' has seen his effort, to destroy the
truth, havo pronounced it the most silly and
unbecile exertion they have ever witnessed,
even a poor old woman after reading his "at
tempt," declared she was Sorry th:t the Dem
ocrats could not find more able material in
Cloarfijld to make an editor. I have charity
enough however, to believe, that he did not
misrepresent luc Intentionally, as I think he
does not understand the ditlercr.ee between a
rote in representation, and a vote at an elec
tion. And as It regards the truth cf all I have
written on the subject, I am fully prepared to
prove it all, by otlieial evidence", and r ledze i
myself to do t,o in public discussion, with the
Editor of the Republican or any other man, of
good character, at any time in Clearfield or
elsewhere. c. J.

FOSEIGN NEWS.
The Collins Steamer Baltic arrived at New
York on Sunday morning, the 6th.
The excitement on American" affairs had sub
sided so much as no longer to exercise any
unscttling effect on the markets. Several of
tho leading papers continue to keep up a series
of grumbling editorials. The London Times
warns the government to have Central Ameri
can affairs settled up before Mr. Buchanan
shall have come to the Presidency.
The town of Kars had been surrendered to
the Turks, and the Turkish troops had evacu
ated the fortress of Redout Kaleh". Tho de
molition by the Russians of the fortifications
ofRcni and Ismael is confirmed. Workmen
were employed, under engineer officers, in lev
elling the walls, and in sending the stones to
Odessa. The Russians say that the fortifica
tions they are destroying were built by them
selves, and that they will give up the foivress
to the Turks ' in the same condition it was
when captured by Suwarrow.
Advices from the Crimea arc dated to June
17. Gen. Codrington telegraphs : "Health
of the British army good ; ten regiments have
yet to embark from the Crimea." Only a few
thousand French remained, and Gen. Peiis
sier has fixed the 5th of July as the term of
their complete evacuation. The military pro
tection of the inhabitants is tocoase from that
day.
The Emperor of Russia has called together
a new Cabinet. It includes the well-known
names of Gortschakofl", (Foreign Affairs,)
Lanskoi, Ostensackcn, and Orloff. This new
Cabinet has. the appearance of being a conces
sion to "Western opinion.
The Prussian papers re-assert that Queen
Victoria will certainly visit Berlin in Septem
ber next. No intimation to that effect has yet
transpired in'London.
The Imperial baptism, by the Pope's Cardin
al Legate, took place at Faiis accordingto the
programme.
Advices- from Paris dated on the 23d of
June, evening, say : "The weather is sigair
very unfavorable in Paris, and according to
telegraphic despatches from tho provinces
rain continues to till. In the departments of i
the Loire and the Cher much anxiety is felt.
The Garonne is rising, and threatens fresh in
undations. The losses in this district are al
ready cf a most alarming extent. At Tou
lous the prices of provisions were rising, ow
ing to the floods and fronts, which had des
troyed the produce of wide districts. The
Rhoue and the Saonc are stationary; but
should the rains continue, it is feared that
fresh inundations may take place. From this
it will be seen how acceptable are the contri
butions which have been so promptly and gen
erously collected in England and elsewhere.
The government has commanded works in all
directions to protect threatened towns. Those
of Tours arc renord ns complete.
Latest. The Africa arrived al New Tork
on the 11th, with Liverpool dates to the 28th
of June. The political and general news are
unimportant.
American matters, or rather manners, have
again been in everybody's mouth. The exci
ting cause was a contretemps that happened at
the Queen's levee. Divested of the outrage
ous exaggeration of the British press, the facts
arc simply thes2 : Mr. Dallas, accompanied
by a friend, went to the Queen's levee ; the
friend's costume was not in accordance with
the regulations, and both gentlemen, Mr. Dal
las and friend, returned to the embassy in
Ilarley street.
Out of this trilling incident, the London
Times concocted a story at variance with truth
in every particular, and made it the occasion
of an out pouring of vulgar blackguardism
against America and Americans generally.
As is usual, when the Times gives the key
note, the minor presses took up the cry, and
for, at least, two days Mr. Dallas labored un
der the imputation of having put a studied
affront upon the Queen.
Cf course, an immense deal of patriotic
wrath was unnecessarily wasted on his head.
The affair made considerable uoise.

Raiciaj a Safe from a Sunken Steamboat.
In 1852 the steamboat sltlantic was sunk in
Lake Eric, by coming in collision with a pro
peller, and on board there was a safe belonging
to the American Express Company, in which
was secured a considerable sum of money.
This safe has been raised by a diver clothed in
submarine armor, who went down, and was un
der water for 40 minutes. The Detroit .f tccr
tiser gives the following account of the affair:
"The upper deck cf the steamer lies one
hundred and sixty feet under water, and fir
below where there is any current or motion.
Everything, therefore, is exactly as it first
went down. When the direr alighted upon the
deck he was surprised to see a beautiful ladv
w hose clothing was well arranged, and her hair
elegantly dressed. She was standing erect,
with one hand grasping the rigging. Around
lay the bodies of several others, as if sleeping.
In the cabin the furniture was still untouched
by decay, and to all appearance had just been
arranged by some careful and tasteful hand.
In the oflice he found the safe, and wms ena
bled to move it, and took it upon the deck,
where the grappling irons were fastened on
and the prize brought safely to light. There
were in the safe 5,000 in gold, $3,500 in bills
of the exploded Government Stock Bank, and
a large amount of bills on other banks,amount
ing in all to about $3,000. The papers were
uninjured,excopt that they smellcd very strong
ly of decomposed human bodies. All this
money goes to tho persons interested in this
adventure."
The Detroit Free Press says : "The new
bills, we are told, are comparatively uninjured
by their long imprisonment and exposure to
dampness, but the old ones are quite injured
and defaced, whether so much as to prevent
their identification and redemption we have
not learned." -
On the 1st of June, 1856, the total debt of
the United States amounted to $40,049,509
75. Since that time this amount has been re
duced to $32,963,602 98 ; thus, paid on Texas
debt, $6,820,016 77, and United States stock
redeemed during tho month ol June to the
amount of $265,300.
From the 2ew York Independent.
Shall a man be a Catholic against his will!
Political heats arc apt to hatch out false
hoods as tropical heats do venomous insects.
But Christian men should be especially care
ful that they do not countenance or propagate
such filsehoods.
At this time many newspapers recklessly
charge Col. Fremont with being a Roman
Catholic. Though it has been authoritatively
contradicted, it still continues to be asserted,
and in very positive and impudent forms.
We have taken pains to inform ourselves in
this matter, and now state to the Christian
public the simple truth, that good men, r.t
least, may cease to bear false witness.
. Col. Fremont was blessed with a' mother of
devoted piety. She was a member of the
Episcopal Church, St. Philip's, Charleston.
S. C, and reared her son in her own faith.
Indeed until he was fourteen, Col. Fremont
was educated in the hope and expectation
that he would become an Episcopal minister.
At sixteen he was confirmed in the Episcopal
church, and has, ever since, when v ithin reach
of the church, been an attendant and commu
nicant. And since his temporary sojourn in
New York, he has been an attendant at Dr.
Anthon's church, until recently, and now lie
worships at Grace Church. Mrs. F rem on
wys reared strictly in the Presbyterian Church
and united with the Episcopal Church upon
her marriage wit!CoU Fremont. Their chil
dren have been baptized in the Episcopal
Church. It is said that a daughter has been
sent to a Catholic institution for education.
So far from it, t?he has never been sent away
from home ot all, but has been educated by
lier own mother.
It is well known that Mrs. Fremont is the
daughter of C1. Benton, and that, at the time,
her father was opposed to hr marriage. Col.
1'reinont personally solicited several Protes
tant Clergymen to perform the marr'nge cere
mony, but, on account of Col. Benton's oppo
sition to it, they were unwilling to do it. A
female friend, in this exigency, said that .-he
could find a Hergyman who would aid with
out fear, and bi onht in a Catholic clergyman,
who married them. Like a true lover and
(UtiUlt Ui.Liij x 'Ciir'Mi, c.tiM ur.i ti
u-ho did it, so that it was done quick and
strong. Had v e been in Col. Fremont's place
we would have been married if it had required
us to walk through a row of priests and bish
ops as long as from Washington to Rome,
winding up with the Pope himself.
Is it not ludicrous to sec a class of citizens
so terribly frightened at the spread of Catholi
cism, and dreading the evils of Papacy above
all things, seizing a quiet Protestant gentle
man, and insisting upon it that he shall be a
Catholic ? In vain ho struggles and protests:
Catholic he shall be whether he will or not
"But, gentlemen I do not believe in the doc-
rinr-K I ;i5 ri-iiriol j- - T... ..
in a Protestant Church ; f have married a
Protestant wife ; my children have had Prot
estant baptism ; we and they attend Protes
tant worship, and we are, both by education
ana conviction, 1'rotostants. 1 ou must ex
cuse us, but we cannot be Catholics." The
eager gentlemen will not be baffled. "You
shall be Catholics; you are Catholics; Ave
will have you Catholics ; all that you say may
be true, in some mysterious manner; you arc
Catholics, and we wilt have it so !" Poor
(vol. Fremont. We do not sec how he will
get over it ! These- terrible Protestants of the
Frpresi are out with sword and pen, deterrnin
cd that he shall be a Catholic !

Tue Radical' Democracy on Bitch an ax.-
The New Yo. k fW, the organ of the Radical
Democracy, continues to pour "hot shot" into
Buchanan; and tue Democratic party, so far
from being united, by reinstating of the Hards
and the degradation of the Softs appears to
havo come out ol the Convention worse
divided than ever. The Past says : In an
examination of the political character of Mr.
Buchanan which we mado some months since
and in which we showed the superiority of his
chances for a nomination, we alhided to the
character of his assotiates and confederates.
No public man ol our day is surrounded by so
prolhgate a set of followers and admirers. 11
i.i the center of a circle of unprincipled and rest
less adventurers, whom men ol a higher degree
ol self respect avoid. There is something
we suppose it consists in the ease with which
he is managed which attracts to him that class
of persons; and he seems to be perfectly con
tent with the associations thus acquired.'' If
Mr. Buchanan could see no harm in seizing
upon Cuba fur the protection of slavery, it is
not likely that he will entertain aiiy scruples
concerning tho seizure of Kansas bv the slave
holders and their rnyrmiilons,for the same pur
pose. Itciy upon it, mat tiic hattle is logo ou
as U has begun, unless stopped by the defeat
of the Cincinnati candidate; there is to be no
compromise v. ith the residents of the Territory;
no slackening of the persecution by which they
are to be driven out that their places may be
supplied by the slave-drivers and their gangs.
If Mr. Buchanan is elected, the seal of Approval
will be set by the people of the United States,
on sill the fraud, all the violation, all the usur
pation, ail the burnings, all the robberies aud
murders, the news of which, for so many
months, has been the melancholy burden of
the mails from the West. He will be as easily
persuaded into a co-operation with these atro
cities, as he was into the folly of the Ostend
Manifesto.
Tuft celebrated Mount of Olives, near Jeru
salem, has been purchased by Madame Pol
lack, the widow of a wealthy banker of the
Hebrew persuasion at Konigsberg. This lady
intends to beautify the place and improve the
whole neighborhood, at her sole expense.
The first thing she had done was to plant the
whole- area with a grove of olive trees and thus
to restore it to the original state from which
it derives its name. f
Panama. The Unit-id States commissioner
is engaged in collecting information respect
ing the riot of May 6. H? meets with good
success. The government of Panama waits
the action of the United States concerning the
matter, and is doing nothing.
Several of the American papers of Indiana,
that have hitherto gone for Fillmore, feel that
Fremont would be a better candidate with
whom to crush the slave power. Among
tbese are the Fort Wavne Times and thp RnrV.
ford Herald.
LATER FROM KANSAS.
Meeting of the Free State Legislature. Disper
sion of the Legislature by Col. Sumner.
St. Louis, July 9. We have advices from
Topeka to the 4th inst. A Convention met
there on the 2nd, and passed resolutions in fa
vor of the Republican nominations, and de
nunciatory of the Democrats, and appealing
to the friends of Free Kansas in Congress.
There were about S00 present, all armed.
Marshall Donaldson and Judg Elrhore read
the President's February proclamation, also,
Gov. Shannon's proclamation, and one issued
by Mr. Woodson, Secretary of the Territory,
together mith a note from Col. Sumner, say
ing he would prevent the meeting of the Le
gislature. They were, however, unheeded.
Both branches of the Legislature met on the
4th. The same day Col. Sumner entered the
town with 200 dragoons, and planted two can
nons at the head of Kansas avenue. While
the troops were drawn up before Constitution
al Hall, where the Legislature was assembled.
Co!. Sumner toll the citizens ha would not
disarm them or break up the Convention ; but
he had orders to dissolve the Legislature, and
should do so.
Col. Sumner repaired to the Hall or Repre
sentatives, aud said : "I am called upon to pei
form the most painful duty of my life, under
the authority of the President of the United
States. I am here to dissolve the Legislature.
In accordance with my orders, I command you
to disperse. God knows I have no p;irty feel
ings in the matter, and I will have none, while
I hold my present position in Kansas. I have
just returned from tiic border, where I have
been sending home the Missourians ; and I am
now lure with instructions to disperse the Le
gislature. I again command you todispers.?."
Judge Schuyler asked if they were to under
stand that they were to be driven out at the
point of the bayonet.
Col. Sumner replied : "I will use the whole
force under my command to enforce my or
ders." The House then dispersed.
A siinil ii seen j was enacted in the Senate
Chamber, ending in . the dispersion of that
body.
The Convention are preparing resolutions,
endorsing the State Government and the To
peka Constitution. The feursof invasion kept
large numbers from attending.
