EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON CITY: ——< FRIDAY........----++ see August 29, 1856, 17 Advertisements should be handed in by 12 o'clock, m., otherwise they may not appear wit! the next day. SPIRIT OF THE MORNING PRESS. The Jutellegencer publishes at length the bill introduced into the Senate by Mr. Crit- tenden, for the solution of the Kansas im- broglio, which it commends—adding that if it fail, it will fail not through its own defects, but on account of the inflamed condition of Congressional sentiment on both sides. In few words, this bill proposes to abolish the Legislature of Kansas and te vest its func- tions under the provisions of the Kansas-Ne- brarka aot, in the Governor and judges, &c. It seoures to the people of the Territory the rights of free speech, property, to bear arms, immunity from unconstitutional vexations, or persecutions at law, 4c., &c.; and makes it the duty of the President to employ United States troops, if necessary, to punish any in- fractions in the Territory of the rights the bill proposes to secure, to keep open the highways of emigration to the Territory through any States or Territory, &c. Wo have nez idea, whatever, that this bill ean become a Jaw, because, in the first place, it is clearly designed to undo the Kansas-Ne- braska act; stripping the people of the Terri- tory of the sovereignty conferred upon them by that law, and placing them undera system of pupilage to Congress and the Executive far more direct and all-pervading than anything of the sort that has heretofore existed under the Government of the United States. it further proposes to bring the troops of the Geveral Government unnecessarily into imme- diate contact with the affairs of the neighbor- ing States, the people of which have in no in- stance, interfered to prevent constitutional and proper immigration into Kansas. Not a man going there through Missouri has been stopped, except such as essayed to go both armed and organized for the special purpose of taking part in the civil war existing there, the proof of which lies in the publications concerning their intent, preparations ond movements, made in journals earnestly sympathising with them. While we doubt not the entire integrity and commendable public spirit actuating the orig- inator of this very last panacea for the illa of the Teritory, we see no reason whatever to counsel submistion, direct or indirect, to the Purposes of the revolutionists of Congress. We wou'd not abate an inch of the demand for the enactment of the naked appropriation bill, and we would boid them in their places in House and Senate until the 4th of March next if that be necessary to secure the defeat of their schemes for overthrowing the supremacy of the constitution and the law, that by rapine and bloodshed their instruments in Kansas may work out their share of their nefarious ends. The Union reviews Blair’s seven column letter to Cave Johnson—the very last Fremont- party Paixhan—with great ability and effeo- tiveness ; showing that Blair's hostility to Mr- Buchanan arises solely from the fact that baying been a member of Pclk’s cabinet, he (Blair) suspects the Democratic presidential nomiree of abetting bis dismissal from the post of editor of the Democratic national organ. In the course of this article the Union ex- plains that Fremont is Blair’s especial nom- inee, seiceted by him because he was unknown and incompetent; and that Blair himself is now simply after the attainment of two easen- tials to his existence—the gratification of the two ruling passions of his life asa public man.

TheirPlea.—It is worthy of note that almost the only excuse for seeking to stop the wecis : the Government alleged by the revolutionists 41 late debates in the Senate chamter, is that they are unwilling to vote money to the Pres- ident to make Kansas a slaveholding State— to immolate freedom, and all that sort of thing. It is also worthy of note, that the firs interference of U. 8. troops in the difficulties in Kansas was on the call of the anti-slave- holding-State party upon the President to prevent their opponents from driving them out of the Territory in return for the murders, robberies, arsons, &¢, they (Ossawatchic Brown, et. al ,) had perpetrated. It is fur- ther worthy of note, that the President prompt- ly responded to their call, and that the slave- holding-State party 2s promptly bowed to the requirements of the U. 8. military authorities in the Territory, disbanded, and returned to their several homes. We may alzo add, that the only occasion on which the troops have interfered against the revolutionists there, was when their bogus State government was attempted to be set in operation; a movement which struck at the authority of the U.S Gov- ernment in the Territory, amounting to its sub- version by force, if successful No honest man in his senses justifies the effort to enforce the Topeka made State government asecither legal, just, or excusable under the circumstances. The Senatorial revolutionists are, therefore, witheut a shadow of truth, so far as what has actually occurred in the Territory is con cerned, on which to base their subterfuge that there is necessity for taking care that the President shall not uze the ordinary army ap- propriations to aid the cause of their oppo- nents in Kansas. Indeed, the falsity and hol- lowness of the arrant pretence to which we refer above is se glaring that all who have kept in mind the events in the stirring history of Kansas must see through its want of foun- dation, ata glance. But this is not the first cecasion whereupon men bent on working out the most nefarious revolutionary purposes, have dragged the sacred name of liberty into the gutter, there to be used as a cover under which they might justify and palliate acts such as those of James Lane and Ossawatchie Brown, the border Missouri counterfeiter and horse thief, and the gangs under their respec- tive commands. In the first French revolution the guillotine was made to do all its work, in liberty’s sacred name, upon everybody of character, property and real public utility who stood in the way of the success of the schemes of the prototypes of the sc-zalled apostles and cham- pions of “freedom in Kansas’? Every old man and defenceless woman who was robbed and murdered by Sans Culotteism in the French revolation of 1793 was robbed and murdered in the name of freedom. Every law and every right which was then trampled un- der foot was abused in liberty’s holy name. It took all Europe nearly half a century to forget its impressions of the unjustifiable out- Tages perpetrated in liberty’s name in that revolution, sufficiently to enable the cause of liberalism to again hold up its head anywhere on the continent. In our own country and at this time while outrages very similar to those in France alluded to above are being perpe trated by Lane and Ossawatchie Brown and their companions, we bave in the Congress of the United States a strong party aiding and abetting them with speeches and votes, justas the Sans Culoties of France were aided and abetted by the orators and members of the Mountain during the revolution of 1793. In principle the two contests are identical and the means nsed to secure a triumph are the same. Murder and rapine, on the part of the instruments of the revolutionists who do the head work; and the abacement of all truth, law, justice, and guaranteed rights, on the part of those (their head workers) in the National Legislature. Amusing —The New York Courier and Enqutrer gravely claims Illinois and Indiana as certain for Fremont. This is about on a par with the ciaims of the Fillmourners that Seven States will surely cast their electoral votes for their candidate. Now, we have to say to our distant readers, that our friends from Illinois in this city, who are in immediate communication with the mort active and well informed Democratic canvassers in the State. are perfectly sanguine that Buchanan and Breckinridge will carry Illinois by twenty-five thousand majority. We know what we are writing in making this state- ment, and assure our readers that we place entire confidence in the judgment of those to whom we refer above So, too, do the Democratic politicians from Indiana, now in Washington, feel perfectly assured that indisna will vote for Buchanan aod Breckinridge by a handsome majority. Their means of knowing the exact state of the canvass throughout the whole State are quite as good, if not better, than those of any par- ties at any point within its limite; and judging by the information hourly reaching them, they laugh to ecorn the boasts of the Revolutionist party that they can carry Indiana. Their Hypocrisy.—The revolutionists of the Senate pretend that the existence of what they term the black laws of Kansag, which, they say, the President will enforce at the point of the boyonet if not Prevented by the action of Congress in providing for the ex- penses of the army, is their rearon for soek ing to embarrass the enactment of the army appropriation bill. We have repeatedly shown that revolution is their aim, and also ia thie immediate connection their end of keeping up the Kansas-s fairs excitement, until after No- vember, at all hazards and any cost. The facts that they have a working majority in the Houre, and can at any moment pass a bill simply to repeal the Territorial laws over which they make such a pow-wow, and that they do not do so, show that they are merely playing with that particular subject. They will not afford the Senate an opportunity thus t strip them of their political capital—not they. The fenate.—The earnest national oppo nents of the revolutionists were in caucus this morning, and bye large majority resolved to resist to the last the earnest efforts to destroy the independent functions of the Lody of which they are members, and to listen to nothing from the majority of one in the House, which ting of the usual supplies to carry on the Government only on novel and unconstitutional conditions. They have no idea of terminating the called tession until the House shall agree to pass the army ®ppro- priation bill stripped of every provision on the propriety of enacting which both Houses are aired A Wage:- A friend au! o.tacs us ty fer & wager of $5,000 that Buchanan will carry Illinois Parties inclined to indulge the idea that Fremont will receive her vote, and will- ing to bet on it, will please apply to the editor of the Star. This is a fair companion for the bet offered in the Union of this morning, on Pennsylvania Together they will serve to test the pretence of the Republican managers that they expect to elect their candidate. The Iowa Congressional Election —We have at length positive information from the Towa Congressional election, in the district represented by Mr. Hall. The majority by which his competitor, Mr. Curtis, is elected isin the neighborhood of 400; not 1,500 as represented. Returning—Messrs.

The Kansas embroglio bill of Mr. Critten- den was then taken up, and Mr. Bell, who was entitled to the floor, addressed the Senate upon it. He was delivering his speech when the Star went to press. In the House, Mr. Barclay moved that when the House adjourned they would adjoarn over until Tuesday next; not agreed to.

V_N_ Lothrop has been nominated for Congress by the Democrats of the First Con- gressional district, Mich. Hon. Anthony E_ Roberts has been re-nom- inated for Congress by the Union Committee of Lancaster county, Pa., representing the Re- publicans, Whigs and Americans. A it Democratic meeting at Brooklyn last Mond ay evening, resolved, among other things, that Kings county shall give Buchanan and Breckin: e, at the November election 5,000 majority ‘The Democratic County Convention, of Al- legheny, Pa., have nominated Wilson McCand- less for Congress; Hon. H. Hepbura for the State Senate; Hon S. Jones, Augustus Hartje, Thos. 8. Hart, Samuel Smith, and L. B. Pat- terson for Assembly. There is to be a Democratic mass meeti: at Kslamazoo, Mich., on the 5th inst , and at Pontire onthe 6th. The Hon. John C. Breck- inridge, of Ky. and Jesse D. Bright, President of the U. S. Senate, are to be present by invi- tation, and address the meetings. The Penn Yan Democrat says that a Fre- mont man in the town of Potter, Yates county, takes his stand on the stepsof a meeting -house in that town, on each Sabbath, and as the people leave church, distributes a mock Re- publicao publication. The Boston Post says that the ox for the Needham Fremont barbacue, was slaughtered on Sunday Think of it—on Sunday! The deceased weighed five hundred and seventy- five pounds—yielded twenty-five pounds of tallow, and died “just as easy” as the Fre- mont party will next November. They are holding Sunday evening religious Fremont meetings out in Michigan. A Dr. Stone, not long since, at one of these meet- ings, appealing to the ladies, said: “If the Democratic party succeeds, and James Buo- hanan is elected, you are just as likely to be sold into slavery as any one, and your daugh- ters for prostitutes !’’ The Union of this morning says: ‘‘ We are suthorized to bet $5,000 that Pen: Ivana will cast her electoral vote for Bue’ ana ; $5,000 that Buchanan will get 500,000 moe votes in the whole Union than Fremont: A reward of $1,000 will be given any one who will procure the acceptance of the first of the above propositions.’’ Fletcher Webster is 19,181 29 22,719 85 241 22 ’ up in New Hampshire eee) up the Republicans at a terrible rate. He addressed an immense meeting of the De- mocracy at Portsmouth last week, and Whigs as well as Democrats listened with unbound: ed enthusiasm. He is resolved, if his labor will accomplish anything, that his venerated father’s native State shall not be given up to disunionists and sectionalists. At Oakland, Indiana, a short time since, a ete Fremont rally was to have taken place ills were posted and freely circulated, and “distinguished speakers” by the score * were to have went;’’ bat owing to unforeseen cir- cumstances, the committee had to send word to the distinguished speakers that they were not wanted Tbe Republizans tore down their own bills the night before the appointed meot- ing, as an excuse for the fizzle, and then charged it to the Democracy. Hon. Edward Bates, of Missouri, delivered an address in St. Luuis on the 19th instant, giving his views on the political signs of the times. Mr. Bates is an old line whig, and once succeeded in getting elected to Congress Ie objects to all three of the political organi- zations ; and at the conclusion of his address he declared that the Union could not be torn asunder, but would withstand the result of the coming struggle, be that result what it might, He urged the old whigs to vote ac- cording to their past principles, and, whether successful or not, they would enjoy the con- sciousness of having done their duty.

A letter from that city to the New York Hera!d, dated the 16th i nt, says: “A son of Dr Woodeock called at the store of William Strickland & Edwin Upsom—firm of Strickland & Co —on Wednesday, and after considerable searching found the ‘Life and Writings of Frederick Douglas,’ for which Mr. Upson charged the exorbitant price of $2 50, which Mr. Woodcock promptly paid A com- mittee of Vigilance, consisting of twenty-five of our leading men, soon met at the Battle House, sent for Messrs Strickland and Upson, and, aftergiving thema fair hearing, requir them to give bonds in the sum of $5,000 each for their appearance before the committeo the next day for further examination. “Meantime an examivation of their stock and account books proved the statements of of Strickland and Upion to have been utterly false.
