The &nzon contains, to-day, an able and convincing defence of Mr. Buchanan’s con- nection with, and course on the Ostend mani- festo, and attributes the restoration of peace and order in Kansas to the energetic measures of the Government here. The Intel/tgencer, discussing the recent ir- regularity of the California mails, says: “lt may be proper to state, however, that the Postmaster General is of the opinion that the irregularities in question are not alto- gether attributable to negligence on the part vf the contractors, but results in part from the insufficient character of the existing mail arrangements, authorized by law, between New Orleans and the Isthmus of Panama, and would in a great measure be prevented by the establishment of a direct communica- tion by steamships between New Orleans and Aspinwall, instead of the present circuitous route by the way of Havana. ‘The present contract with the United States Steamship Company provides for a semi-monthly line of steamers between New York and New Orleans via Havana; and also for a direct semi-monthly line from Havana to Aspinwall, running in due connection there- with; but no provision is made for a direct line to Aspinwall, either from New York or New Orleans, both of which it is highly im- portant should be regularly maintained.” ed The Portsmouth Pestilence. We have been shown a copy of a most im- pressive sermon, “delivered in the Court street Baptist church, Portsmouth, Va., on Sabbath morning, December 30, 1855, commemorative of twenty-eight members of Old Dominion Lodge, No. 6, I. 0. O. F., who died during the late epidemic, by Isaac W. Handy, pastor of the First Presbyterian church, and member of the order.” From this sermon we gather the following interesting facts in relation to the introduction of the fever by the steamer Ben Franklin, and of its subsequent devasta- tion : The Ben Franklin arrived at Gosport on the 19th of June, where she remained for re- pairs. This she would not have been allowed todo bed not her histcry been scrupulously concealed and the health officer deccived On the 30th of June three persons were sick near Puge’s wharf, where the Ben Franklin Was anchored, with what some supposed to be yellow fever ; but it was not until the Sth of July that any ease occurred to awaken public attention. Onthat day a map, who bad opened up the hojd, was taken sick, and in three days he died of the slack vomit This created some alarm, and a connection being traced between the disease znd the ill-fated vessel, she was at onee (on the Sib) sent to quarantine. It was hoped. and by most persons believed, thet the number of eases would be few, and then con- fined to Gosport; many, however, were of a different opinion, and those of them who could conveniently do so immediately fied The reports frcm dey to day showed agradual increase in the number of deaths; and the disease creeping slowly but steadily at length reached the very heart of the city. By this time hundreds of the citizens had sought safety in flight, and the population continuing thus rapidly to decline, by the frst week in September there was probably not more than 3,000 persons in the place, numbering both whites and negroes, and of this number per- haps not 200 escaped sickness. This was the heaviest week of the mortality, during which it is eupposed that one byodred and fifty per- sons were swept off by the prevailing epidemic. On the 2d day of September, which was the Sabbath, thirty-six persons died during the twenty-four hours ending that morning But from that time the fever gradually abated until it was finally banished by the firat hard frost on the 26th of October. It is estimated that at least 1,200 persons died during the four months cf the continuance of the fever. Of this number one bundred and twenty were heads of families, and in forty-six families both father and mother were taken away!

Col. Fremont.—Where was he born? Oh! where was he born? Among all the newspa- perand politician nurses assisting to bring him into the world politically, it seems impossible to find one knowing positively where he first saw the light physically. Some of them in- sist that it was in Augusta, Ga.; others in Charleston, 8, C.; and others, again, in Vir- ginia. Who can solve the mystery? If the public impression in this quarter con- cerning his family history be correct, it is not wonderful that his birth-place should be in doubt. That represents his father, # worthy man, to have been a young French teacher— of dancing ; and his mether as the daughter of a worthy foreign confectioner of Norfolk, Va; a very natural union, indeed, as all know who study the history of those two classes of the foreign-born in the United States. In the South, dancing masters are exceedingly migratory, or, rather, peripatetic, in their habits—wandering hither and thither over the country, giving lessons here a quar- ter and elsewhere a quarter, as classes may be obtainable. Hence, we presume, arises the uncertainty as to the Colonel’s birth- place. It is well known here that he (the father) was not of a Huguenot family of long residence in the United States, as has been represented, but came to this country from the south of France, a Catholic, as ninety-nine in every hundred French dancing masters in the United States are until the day they die. The Huguenots are never dancing masters— being Puritans. The New York Tribune slings any quantity of slush at us because we attributed to Col. Fremont sympathy for the church of his an- cestry before he began to bill and coo at the Know Nothings, and insists that he was bap- tised by an Episcopal clergyman, and has ad- kered to that faith. We know not who bap- tized him ; but we do know that our Catholic fellow citizens have until recently looked on him as one of their own outside ones. This opinion has not rested alone on the fact that he went to a Roman Catholic priest—the so generally beloved Father Van Horseigh, now no more—to unite him in wedlock to the daughter of Col. Benton; which was more than Father V. H. would have dared to do under the discipline of the church, unless either groom or bride solemnly pledged him or herself to be of the Roman Catholic faith, and as solemnly promised to bring up the children to be born unto them in the Roman Catholicchurch. But they did not rest their opinion in the premises on that faith alone, which, to our mind, knowing Father Van Horseigh’s inflexibility as a Catholic discipli- narian, as we do, would have been sufficient to make us consider any one a Catholic in faith and affections, who had been united to 8 Protestant lady under his ministry. They had, or thought they had, strong proof of the Colonel’s Roman Catholicity, in the reocived account of the history of his ado- lesence, wherein he was represented to have been the recipient of the angelic charity of an association of pious Roman Catholic ladies of Charleston, S. C , to whom he is said to have been indebted for his educa- tion under careful Roman Catholic priests, in a Roman Catholic institution in or near Baltimore, Md.; and wherein it would proba- bly be as rare to seo acharity scholar who was not of the religious faith of the insti- tution and those to whose piety he might be indebted for his education, as in a Protestant institution, wherein, as in all culleges conduct- ed by Roman Catholic priests, religious (sec- tarian) instruction is regarded as a poiut of importance in the training of youth. Not a few of our Roman Catholic fellow citizens have been giving Col. Fremont credit until lately for Catholic earnestness of soul in re- turn for all they believe him to have received from Roman Catholic piety and zeal in good works, to the extent of having had a room fitted up in his residence here, as 2 Roman Catholic family chapel. We know further, that considering his suc- cess in life as being mainly the result of the discipline and excellent and solicitous train- ing of a Roman Catholic institution, they have been very proud indeed of his career; and that his recent seeming proclivity for Beegh- erism and his sudden evident desire to indoe- trinate George Law's Know Nothing Conven tion with the idea that they can rely on him to go the whole Know Nothing hog if North Americanism will support him for the Presi- dency, haz made scores of them sick at the stomach. — The German Vote.—The Republican man- agers, all reeking as they are with the scent of their Know Nothing affiliations—much more than half their party being at this moment ardent sympathizers with all that the anti- Republican-party Know Nothings aim to ac- complish against the foreign born in this coun- try, are busy with schemes to cheat the Ger- mané among us into the suppert of Fremont. The card of three members of the Massacbu- setts delegation to George Law’s Convention denying that Fremont gave them any pledge of bis devotion to the aims of the Know No- thing party, was but one of the tricks of the Republican managers to cheat the Germans— nothing more. We have heard many iatelli- gent gentlemen who were present at both the recent Conventions in New York and Phila- delphia so pronounce it; declaring that it was well known toall behind the curtain there, that the criginal revelations of the simple- minded members of the Massachusetts dele- gation of the circumstances of their interview with Fremont, were true to the letter; the subsequent card which three of those present on that occasion were prevailed on to sign, be- ing nothing more than an effort to screen him Fremont) from the probable effect of his frank avowal of complete identity in sentiment with the Know Nothings, so far as ‘‘the d—d furri- ners’’ are concerned. A dozen or so half-crazy German so-called philosophers who have run mad about negro slavery, are doing their best to aid the Re- publican managers to entrap as many Ger- man votes in their toils as possible. These are the men who on reaching the United States set up as reformers of the government of our country—proposing so to change its system as that it shall square with their own crazy socialist notions. As nine-tenths of those Germans who have been long enough among us to become naturalised, comprehend that these psuedo-philosophers are very bad advisers indeed, we do not conceive it possible that they can tole any considerable number of their countrymen off to aid in the work of placing in the ascendency, in this country, the principles of Know Nothingism. They know well that the great Democratic organi- zation can alone be relied on in these times steadily to oppose apy and all efemos locking to the purpose of making discriminations under the government between citizens of the United States, on account of the country of their birth. The Saranac.—The United States steam frigate Saranac, from the Mediterranean, ar- rived at Philadelphia on the 26th inst. Her commanding officer, Captain J. C. Long, in a communication to the Navy Department, thus speaks of the effects of the recent act to pro- vide a more efficient discipline for the navy : “IT likewise take pleasure in commending the crew of this ship te the notice of the De- partment; that since the enactment of the new laws for the better government of the navy, I have not had occasion to punish one man by a ‘court martial ;’’ and that, when some fifty of them were serving from six to ten months after the expiration of their ser- vice, and yet we have had an efficient ship.”” Confirmed.—Charles Griswold, of New York, has been appointed and confirmed to be the Consul of the United States for the port of Manila, Phillipine Islands.

In the Senate, yesterday, after we went to press, at the conclusion of the consideration of Mr. Stuart's report from the Committee on Rules, a portion of the recommendation of which were agreed to, the bill for the construc- tion of a wagon road from Missouri to Cali- fornia was passed. On motion of Mr. Slidell, the Committee on Agriculture was directed to inquire into and report on the expediency of making a specific appropriation for the importaticn of reed su- gar cane for gratuitous distribution to the sugar planters of the United States. Mr. 8. also introduced a joint resolution providing that any vessel wholly laden with sugar cane, imported to bé used as such on plantations in isiana, shall be allowed to proceed to the plantations without breaking bulk at the pert in which she arrives; the collector to assign an inspector of customs to such vessels to accompany them to their des- tination, and superintend the unloading of the cargo; the inspector tu be paid by the im- porter a sum equivalent to his regular com: pensation while so employed ; passed. The Senate then adjourned. In the House, shortly after the conclusion of the speech of Mr. Haven against precipi- tous action on the bill to admit Kansas into the Union as a State, with the Topeka-made constitution, they went into Committee of the Whole on state of the Union, wherein a large number of territorial bills were considered and disposed of ere they rose; when the House adjourned. Preceedings ef Te-Day. In the Senate, to-day, the only business of public interest consummated ere we went to Press, was the enactment of the bill respect- ing the harboring of deserters from the mili- tary service, and to protect the public inter- est in regard to the enlistment and discharge of minors; and the bill creating two addi- tional land offices in the Territory of Minne- sota, The bill authorizing the issue of an nddi- tioual number of stand of arms for the use of the State of California was then taken up. In the House, after the reading of the jour- nal, Mr. Millson rose and announced the death of his late colleague, the Hon. Thos. H. Bayly of Va., which he followed by an eloquent, critical, and impressive eulogy upon the life, public services and virtues of the deceased, which he was engaged in delivering as our report went to press. ° it was understood of course, that at the ter- mination of the ceremonies connected with the announcement of the death of the late Hon. Mr. Bayly, the House would adjourn over. THE CALIFORNIA NEWS. By the arrival of the steamship Granada at New Orleans we have news of much interest from Califurnia. Casey and Cora were hung en the 22d ult. The funeral of Mr. King took place on the same day, and was ckaraceaticad by the most perfect decorum throughout. The Vigilance Committee had arrested sev- eral other cee characters, among them the notorious Yankee Sullivan. On the Ist of June, Sullivan committed suicide in his cell at the Committee Rooms, leaving behind him a confession in regard to the election in San Francisco. On the 2d, the opponents of the Vigilance Committee held a meeting to denounce the committee, but it proved a total failure. Rumors were circulated that Gov. Johnson would call means into requisition to suppress the revolution, but no steps to do so had been taken upto the departure of the steamer. These rumors created much excitement in the State. Word came to San Francisco that a thousand men were ready to march to the as sistance of the committee Martial law had been declared in San Francisev. Sacramento offers to furnish a thousand men to assist the committee. The excitement was great, and continually on the increase. The committee were determined to carry out their measures, and continued making arrests. An opposition force was organizing, with seven hundred stand of arms, and there were rumors of an attack on the Committee Rooms. The rooms were doubly guarded, and two cannons were before the door loaded with gra je. All the San Francisco papers, except the Herald, take sides with the committee. Several murders and accidents are recorded in the interior The bealth of San Francisco was good A moderate business was doing. Indian hostilities in Oregon wero partially suppressed. A difficulty had arisen in Washington Ter- ritory on account of the attempt of Judge Saunders to hold a court during the existence of martial law. The judge was captured and put 4 safe keeping until peace was estab- lished. Advices from Costa Rica state that the army was disbanded. The cholera was raging in that State. Baron Balow died of it during the retreat from Nicaragua. There is nothing of importance from Nica- ragua POLITICAL ITEMS. The firemen of Buffalo will turn out in full uniform on the occasion of the reception of Mr. Fillmore in that city. Colonel Benton has left St. Louis on a tour for the purpose of canvassing the State, and will rot return until a few days preceding the election. The B:ston Chronicle predicts that Charles Sumner will, upon the next meeting of the Legislature, be re-elected Senator by the unan- imous vote of all parties. The Wilmington Herald says that the state- ment that North Carolina was represented in the Republican National Convention is a fab- rication. The Baltimore American, Old Line Whig, is urging upon the Maryland Whig State Con- vention, which is soon to assemble, to endorse Mr. Fillmore, as the only proper way of keep- ing up an eopeniastos and causing their in- fluence to be felt. The Seongtcehes (Texas) Chronicle says that Gene: Houston, while lately in town, indicated to his friends his entire want of con fidence in the success of the present American party, and his total disinclination to support either the pon or the nominee. «Phe arty,’’ adds the Chronicle, ‘‘to which he al- ied himeelf for great and noblé purposes, has® become the tool of selfish politicians, to whose. tchemes he cannot lend the sanction of his name and influence.” I> Silver Ware Manufactery —Having commenced the manufactory of Sliver Ware tn connection with wy Jewelry establishment, pet 8 wishing to furnish ‘r own silver to be manufactured Into ware,can do 80, and rely on having the same returned in proper shape.
