The Intelligencer says: “It is true the contest for the Presidency bas never before assumed an aspect 80 sec- = mt, but there have been dan- safely ridden the billows and shunned the breakers. Notwithstanding the apparent in- litical system to those who its philosophy, it is satisfac- Cotterell tricacy of our have not a to the friends of peste’ that there are balance wheels of correcting and regulating all t tendencies of the great machine. r fact that there are diversities of interests in a country so large gives assurance that there can never be combinations in the three branches of the Government of sufficient strength and durability to work ruin to the m. Inthe most violent party times we have ever known there was an element of safety in one or the other House of Congress So it is now, and so will it ever be. geological illustration, we may be allowed to sey that there is a great substratum of strength and power at the base of our institutions, which insures an ultimate adhesion and cobe- sion of the centre and of the extremes The deep-rooted affection and reverence for the work of our fathers, now become a part of our education and combined with all the substan- tial interests of society, will always subdue and eventually overcome all the suggestions of passion and the madness of the bour. Poli- tical pbrensy, like every other mania, must have its culminating poin sidence, and its period of a is in this yet young and thrifty country a re- cuperative quality that needs but a moment pause to set all its active elements into vigor- ous and irrepressible motion.”’ It is well known that the Intelligencer is a strong believer in the propriety of continuing the existing government under any change of ite character that may be successfully essayed by the majority, however much that may dif- fer in vital essentials from the goverument under which the slaveholding States consented to the union with the rest of the sovereigns of the present Confederacy. Indeed, we believe we will not be going too far in saying that our respected friends of that journal, would pre- fer the connection of the thirty-one States under a change that would avyowedly abolish the federative character of our system and lodge all power in the hands of whoever may be in authority at this point, to a separation. Under these ciroumstances the wish of the Intelligencer ia father to its views of the utter impossibility of a dismemberment of the con- federacy of the United States of the North Its conduetors are grievously mistaken. The idea of the continuation of the Union with its destinies in the hsnds of men who preach the political doctrines of the powers, rights and duties of the Federal Government which mark every thing without exception written, spoken and done with reference to the slavery quer- tion by the Republicans, is simply preposter- ous. There may be three Southern Senators and six Representatives in Congress who think differentiy—men well known here ss unayowed sympathizers with the anti slavery cause All the rest, with all the Senators and Representa- tives from the North who are well informed as to the real condition of the Southern public sentiment are weil aware that in six months after John C Fremont should be declared elected President of the Uni'ed States, the United States of America would be among the things of the past. We know the sentiments of self preservation by that means, to be universal among the Southern people of all parties, how- ever much Northern men in the South, the New York Herald et al may pooh-pooh the idea. Our purpose is not at this time to argue the pro- priety of such action on the part of the South, but simply to state the fact that such action on its part, and only such action, is to be an- ticipated asthe grand result of the poasible installation of the principles and doctrines of Republican partyism in the conduct of the federal affairs of the North American confed- its process of sub- lute rest.

Floyd had taken the liberty of offering tho Democratic Presidential nomination to Fre- mont ere he was nominated by the Republi- eans—such being the roorback in its length and breadth—sent to Ex-Gov. F. a slip con- taining its particulars. In reply, he (Ex-Goy- Floyd) writes promptly as follows : Astnapor, VA., 6th September, 1856. I hasten to answer your kind note received this morning, and to say that there is scarcely a shadow of foundation for the statements con- tained inthe slipyousentme. I never had an interview with Fremont except at his own seeking or that of his special friends. I never made any offer to him of anything for myself or others He never expressed any censure for the repeal of the Missouri Compromise in my hearing All that is gammon from begin- ing toend. I never saw him until I met him in New York ; and, after a short a considered him very light metal (notwith- standing Mariposa) Lapamoiwpe inr upon a political subjects. J broke off all communication with him on political subjects, because [ saw that the influences which gov- erned him were abolition These are the simple facts ; and the only thing about it which worries me is to think that the interviews ef gentlemen, in the confidence of privacy, should be made the subject of newspaper discussion, and mucrepresented, too, for the pu of giving semething of effect to the fables they are filled with. Joun B. Frorp This is just the reply we. anticipated Ex Gov. Floyd would make to such an aspersion on his fair fame. We know him well enough to feel assured that he would as willingly sever his right arm off, as participate in any such in- trigue as that he so emphatically and indig- nantly denies in the letter published above. Kensas.—We are satisfied from what we hear on the ue this morning, that positive instructions have gone to Kanses which will lead to such measurcs on the part of the Gov- ernment’s officers, military and civil, as will promptly put down the civil warthere It is deeply to be regretted that General Smith per- mitted Lane to enter the Territory at the head of an army of brigands with arms in hand, and thus to create the necessity for the counter precipitation of an army from Missouri for their dispersion and punishment. The Government here have a duty to doin the premises which, we are satisfied. will be done at allhazards. The fact that General Smith failed to take the responsibilty of dri- viog Lane and his men out of the Territory ere they had perpetrated one of their hundreds of recent murders, robberies and arsons can form no legitimate reason why the Genera! Govern- ment should fail to prevent the Missourians from taking their revenge. We have no doubt that Lane and every man of his foree who can be arrested will be duly arrested by the troops of the United States, but none but troops called into service by the General Government will be permitted to participate in arresting them. Avy others found in arms in the Ter- ritory, under whatever pretence, will be re- garded as participants ip the existing civil war which it is the imperative duty of the Presi- dent of the United States to put down at all hazards, and will be dealt with accordingly. Such, in few words, we believe to be the sub- stance of the instructions said to have been for- warded to General Smith and Gov. Geary. Se nator Pearce.—This justly distinguished gentleman} appears in thia morning’s Inte/li- gencer in @ letter contradicting the absurd story of our talented, amiable and truthful neighbor saying that he and Rufus Choate re- fuse to support Fillmore because they were disappointed in obtaining judgeships under big administration. Among those cognizant cf the unwritten history of public affairs no such de- nial wag aeceseary. Mr. Fillmore offered a seat in his Cabinet to James A. Pearce, who declined it. No man who knows anything of such matters will fail to compretend that 2 gentleman who had such a tender made him could have failed to have commanded a va cant United States district judgeship if de_ siring it. In the case of Rufus Choate, we know of our own knowledge that when friends suggested to him the propriety of permitting his name to be presented to Mr, Fillmore for the United States circuit judgeship to which Judge Curtis wag subsequently appointed, he firmly opposed the idea, because he could not afford to relinquish his practice. The Organ’s story is the sheer- est balderdash imaginable. A Capital Appointment.—The War De- partment having necessity elsewhere for the services of Mejor Emory of the U. 8. Tope- graphical Engineers (who hed been selected by the Secretary of the Interior for the worik,) the acting Secretary of the Interior has ap- Pointed oar fellow-citizen, Randolph Coyle, Eaq., civil ex gineer, ty superintend the com- pletion of the, Little Fails bridge over the Po- tomac, for whic, Congress appropriated $75,000 at its lo yt regular session. The eelectio g of Mr Coyle for this duty isa well-deserv’ 64 compliment to the professional skill and energy with which he has for some Years Pp’ 4st conducted the portion of the Gov- erm’ snt’s improvements in this city with whi ch he bas been entrusted, and in other W orks constructed under his superintendence, The Coal Question.—It appears, from our Baltimore exchange papers, that at the regu- lar monthly meeting of the Board of Directors of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Com- pany, yecterday, the following resolations were passed : “ Resolved, That an increase of freight on coal of 50 cents per ton from all points of ship- ment, be charged on and after Ist October uext, and that a drawback of 25 cents per wn be allowed at and from that date on ail coal delivered in the city of Baltimore, for the con- sumption of its citizens. “ Resolved, That the President be and he is hereby authorized to purchase five first claga freight locomotives.”’ The rate per ton, since December 1, 1853, has been $2.25, The Whig National Cenvention, arranged to be held in Baltimore next week, ie, as we have repeatedly asserted, a mere Know Noth- ing trap. The Baltimore American, by way | of proving our assertion, as it were, say “there is every reason to believe that the city will be thronged with the frierds of Mr. Fill- more.’’ The Kiow Nothings wish to create the impression that the great mass of the “ Whigs” of the country are “caving in’’ to Fillmore, among their many fecble artifices to | pounds of flour of sulp! help along their galloping-consumption organ- ization. — The Army Medical Board, which recently convened at Newport Barracks, approved and recommended for appointment in the medical staff of the army the follcwing candidates; j Charles T. Alexander, of Pennsylvania; An- thony Heger, do.; Asa Wall, Virginia; Chas. Brewer, Maryland; Wm. T. Babcock, New York ; James Simons, Maryland; B. A. Cle- ments, New York ; Edward M. Covey, Mary- land; R 0. Craig, New York; R. D. Lynde, Maryland. The Alexandria Custom House.—The bids for the erection of the Alexandria Custom house have been opened at the Treasury De- partment. Frederick E. Geiger was the lowest at $42,956 Tho next lowest, in the order named are Gilbert Cameron. Walker, snd McCollum; 8. T G. Morsell, William McKnight, William H. Clampsett, and E. C Clements. The successful bidder was not declared yesterday. tel California —The distant papers are specu- lating as to the character of the dispatches sent out to California by the last steamer, and some of their guesses are amusing, if not ab- surd. We are satisfied that the dispatches contemplate nothing more than the protection of property belonging to the United States, and that of the federal officers in the discharge of their duties. The Current Operations of the Treascry Department.—On yesturday, 10th September, there were of Treasury warrants entered on the books of the Department— For the Treasury Department.., For the Interior Department....+ For the Customs ...+sseeeesseese War warrants received and en $29,663 88 56,473 26 8,656 56 GetEd Cocecesscctocsconscscuses G0000 98 War repay warrantsreceived an entored....sssseessesess oe 104 90 From miscellaneous sources...... 597 14 ——————~s0e-—______ PERSONAL. +++.

Beecher Stowe, with her hus band, Prof. C. E. Stowe, are in England, 2s our readers will remember, for the purpose of securing a copyright there upon her new novel ‘‘Dred.’’ By the last steamer we learn that Mr. and Mrs Stowe are at present at Inverary Castle, Scotland, by invitation from the Duke of Argyle. ++++ On dit—that notwithstanding the beau ty of his consort, the Empress, Napoleon is reported to be desperately in love with two other persons—the Countess Castiglione, a Florentine of great wealth and beauty, and the celebrated Miss Neil, of England, whose cap- tivating powers have thrown a spell over the heart of the ‘‘ nephew of his uncle.’’ +++, Lyster and Walters, of the Nicaraguan recruiting party in New York city, were again before the Special Sessious on Tuesday morn- ing to receive sentence for their assault, some time ago, upon Mr. Smith. editor of the Sun- day Courier. Both prisoners expressed sin- cere regret at their violent course Lyster was sentenced by the Recorder to thirty days in the city prison; and by request of the com- plainant, in the case of Walters, judgment was suspended and he was discharged from custody. +++» The steamship Barcelone brought from Europe quite a number of artists, from prime donne, who are countesses, down to demo- cratic rope-dancers. Among others are Mon- sieur and Madame Calixto Defolly M. Defol- y is a violinist of some note, and his wife is a chanteuse legere. He also brings a company of gymnasts—M. Debach, of the Hippodrome, Paris; M Feranti et fi/s, from the Cirque de “’Imperatrice They give gymnastic perform- ances and represent tableaux vivants. M. Debach makes a wonderful spiral ascension, which astonished all Paris. +++» Rev. Dudley Tyng, of Philadelphia, it is presumed, is tired enough, by this time, of trying to turn his Church (of the Epiphany— Philadelphia.) into an electioneering meeting house, for “‘ Fremont & Freedom.’’ We see it stated, now, that the vestry have had another meeting, at which a resolution was passed re- questing him to resign the pastorship, which ke incontinently refused todo, at the same time expressing a wish to take the vote of the congregation on the question It is said that not more than fifty persons attended the church Sunday lost, and these few were principally ladies. Meanwhile his ‘‘sermon’’ on slavery is freely circulated by the Fremonters, here and elsewhere, asa Republican campaign doc- ument. +++. The Paris correspondent of the New York Herald refers to what he calls the strange stories told about Napoleon the Third’s ille- gitimacy. He says it is by many believed that he has no Bonaparte blood in his veins, but though there is no resemblance in the Em- eror’s features to the other members of the Wonaparis family he is so like them in his walk and general carriage, that without consan- uinity it would be difficult to understand it. Whitse in the rural districts no doubt is enter- tained of the Emperor’s legitimacy, no one about the Court has the slightest faith in it. Napoleon the third is understood to be the son ofa Germanadmiral. Hiscast ofcountenance and temperament are eminently German, though the evidence which establishes bis paternity is entirely independent of these cir- cumstances, + wee A Perruuxp Breatu.—What lady or gen- tleman would remain under the curse of adis- agreeable breath when by using the ‘* Balm of a Thousand Flowers’? a3a dentrifice would not only render it sweet but leave the teeth white as alabaster?

Waeps in Paved Patus ann Courts.—The growth of weeds between the stones of a pave- ment is often very injurious as well as un- sightly. The following method of destroying them is adopted at the Mint at Paris and else- where, with samen —— reeets of water, twent; unds of qui ime, two ‘s mar of sulphur’ are to be boiled in an iron veszel ; the liquor is to be allowed to settle, the clear part drawn off, and being more or less diluted, according to circum- stanoes, is to be used for watering the alleys and pavements.

Estimates of the number present ran; from 20,000 to 30,000. Speeches were made by John C Breckinridge. Preston, Dickinson, Bright and Cass. Michigan will roll up a strong force for Buchanan at the Presidential election. On Saturday, there was a tremendous gathering of the Democracy at Lancaster, Pa., in the open air. The crowd was addressed from the court house steps by Chas W Car- rigan, Esq , of Philadelphia; also by S. L. Remak, Esq., who made addresses both in English and German. The home of Buchanan will be known as Buck-wheatland, by the ides of next November. On Monday night, while Mr. Heasennuller was inthe midst of his most stirring appeals to the Germans, which made the whole crowd wild with excitement, an American in the hall, fally conscious that something rich was being said, though not understanding a single word of it, asked a Dutchman standing near him, and listening with great eagerness, what it was the speaker was saying. ‘@ shook his head, replying, with some apparent impa- tience at having his attention taken a moment from the epeaker, *‘Mine Got, it is so goot 1 can’t shtop to tell you !"—Cleveland Platn- dealer.
