At a meeting et the members of the Republi can Count) Committee, held in Huntingdon on 12th August 1856, in pursuance of the puk halted call, to take into consideration the action of the American County Convention of the pre vious day, and to decide whether the course of that Convention is such as to eatitle it to re ceive the support of the friends of Fremont and Free Kansas, of this county, at the October election, the following preamble and resolutions were unanimously adopted: . .

NO MONEY FOR MURDERING FREE MEN IN KANSAS. 1 Our readers are aware that the President through his Secretary of War, Jell. Davis, demanded of Congress, the sum of four teen millions of dollars, for the support of the army, for the present year. The bill passed the Senate as required, and was sent to the House of Representatives, where it also passed by a large majority ; but the free soilers and other friends of freedom in the House, attached a section to the bill, providing that no part of the $14,000,000 should be applied in destroying the people of Kansas or driving the free state settlers from that Territory, by any part of the ar med force of the United States. The bill thus amended was sent back to the Senate, where the section against destroying the free settlers of Kansas was struck out, and the bill again sent to the house. This was on the 18th of August, the day fixed for the adjournment of Congress, sometime before by a joint resolution of both houses. Before the House had time to restore the amendment against employing the troops in murdering the free state settlers in Kan. sas, the hour fixed for adjournment arrived, the speaker's hammer fell and the House stood adjourned. On the 19th, Pierce. is sued his Proclamation calling back the two houses, to hold a special session on the 22d. The case then stood thus : Both H"ttses agreed to pass the bill for the 11.1,000,000 for the army, but th.- Representatives would not agree that any part of the mon ey shall be spent in driving the free set- tlers from Kansas. Whereupon Pierce, Jeff. Davie, Douglas, Fihnore, Buchanan, and the Senate, unite in a general lamen tation ; the South Americans and Locofo• cos, join in the wailing. Pierce acts as chief mourner, and deli, era a special message to the two houses of Con"- which hr the' -thie .ongress, in which ne says that nothing so bad as this has happened since the foun• dation of the Government. That he will have nothing to do with the $14,000,000, 'which the House offers him for the sup prt of the army, unless he can eve as touch as he pleases of it to assist the Mr der Ruffians of Missouri in robbing, mur dering and driving the free state settlers from Kansas, fhat unless he can have money to protect the house-burners, horse thieves, and violators of the wives and Filmore was no sooner elevated to the Presidency, by the death of good old Tay lor, than he betrayed and deserted the peo ple who had elected him, joined himself to the slave power, and has ever since re mained the friend and ally of slavery.— This silly moo believed that slavery was more powerful than freedom, mid set him self ap for the Presidency. Every one sees the late which awaits hint. Ills fol lowers here are at his heels and in his tracks—the same end awaits them, Ver ily gentlemen, honesty is the hest policy.
