Wednesday Morning, Sept. 24, 1856. ORGANIZE! ORGANIZE! ! ORGANIZE!!! The Friends of Freedom are earnestly desired to canvass every Township and School District in the County. . The co. horts of Slavery are at work. Already they claim to know their strength. They are bringing every element of opposition to bear on the friends of Freedom and Premont. Union saving efforts to force Slavery Into Kansas—wonderful efforts to frighten Germans with defunct "Know No. thingisin,"—one swearing that Fremont is a Catholic, and another that he is a Know Nothing. One set claiming that Fremont is a slaveholder, and another that he is trying to have all the slaves let loose to murder their masters. No stone is left unturned to stop the onward roll of Free• dom's waves, and as they tower higher and higher, harder and-harder they strive to arrest the mighty avalanche. Take coil• r age then friends of Freedom. The alarm of our foes sh:itild be another incentive to more active efforts. Let the people but know that the contest is between Freedom and Shivery, and all will be well. The Globe and American. We find tho Catholic press charging Fremont with know Nothingistn, whilst another portion of the Democratic newspapers wage war upon his religion, and call it CATHOLIC. This two handed game won't win. The game is expo• set, the Catholic question in to be urged with pertinency on one hand, and Know Nothing ism. pressed oulhe other, and by force of these Isotioavila (charged and admitted lw the Buell- anon newspapers, Protestant and Catholic,) Col. Fremont is to be delimited, our reply is sim ply this. If Fremont is a Cutholic, and that be a crime, don't vote far him If he is a Know Nothing, and unworthy of your suffrages, with bold them, but, "in the name of all the god s at once," don't blow hot and cold with the same breath, nor hope that such Miserable at. tempts at political trickery and deception' can who anything but ridicule anal contempt. The Globe and American of this town ploy ed upon this harp of two strilig4, for a time, but they have both coneludiml that the "cow question" is of more iinportanec than the "K N." or Catholic question," and now dish up leading articles on. cattle breading,' , is being more valuable and better suited to the mad-. ty of their renders, than learned disquisitions on theological or political 'subjects.

The measure was carried by Southern votes and by the votes of the most distinguished men of the South, and now, when they have received the fruit of the bargain shall they be permitted by the North to snatch from them the very consi deration of the bargain ?

At this remark, without giving inn an answer, they left the store, muttering that force would be used in order to stop me.
