The committee of twelve, appointed at the meeting of French residents held last Friday, met yesterday at 2 P. M., at Delmonico’s. E. Lentilhon occupied the ebzir, and C, ©. Hoguet officiated as Secretary. ‘The Cuarrman stated that application had been made to Mayor Wood to take some action for the relief of the suf- ferers, previous to the meeting of Friday being held, whereupon that functionary had conferred with Mortimer Livingston and M. de Montholon, the French Consul, as to the best course to pursue. After the meeting wae- held Mr, Wood declined acting as Mayor of New York in the matter; he would, however, act individually. Mr. Sf. M. VxcEut moved that a committee of Americans be appointed, with Fernando Wood at their head, to act, on behalf of the American people, in raising subscrip- tions for the suffering French pople. ‘The Mayor to have- power to add to the committee.

Mr. Campari, (nigger worshipper) of Ohio, asked him to accept, as an amendment thereto, in effect to repeal so much of the Kansas act as declares yoid the Missouri compromise. Mr. Srermens—I do not accopt it. Mr. Camrmm11—I suppose not. Mr. Wasuuvrnn, (nigger worshipper) of Me., said Mr. Stephens’ propotition was a side blow to kill the Kansas bill. Mr. Srepuens denied thiz, expressing his desire that the latter should be referred to the Committee of the Whole on the State of the Union. He vindicated the Kangas Nebraska act and condemned the movements of the Northern people to thwart the policy of that mea- sure. He said the pending bill admitted on its face that the Topeka constitution was formed against law and or- der. He was imclined to think the real object of this movement was Not so much to get Kansas into the Union asafree State as to kindle the fires of civil war in the country. Mr. Camrnrz, in the course of his reply to Mr Stephens, said be could prove that Jefferson denied the constitu- tional power to acquire territory, and could produce the original manuscript of a letter written by Jefferson a few years before his death, in which he not only approved of the Missouri compromise, but in express terms admitted the power of Congress to exclude slavery. This letter he intended to have lithographed to accompany his speech. He denied that the Kansas-Nebraska bill carried out the provisions of the compromise measures of 1850, arguing the constitutionality and expediency of excluding slavery from the Territories. Messrs. CAMPBELL and SrepHeys repeatedly interrupted each otber for explanations regarding the controverted ‘an slavery. 5 Mr. vane, (dem.) of Texas, was in favor of admit- ting Kansas as soon as practicable, without regard to the naaiber of inhabitants, provided a fuir election could be liad. He would send thither General Scott to secure such aresult.

DREADFUL ACCIDENT ON THE ERIE RAILROAD—TWO» YOUNG LADIES KILLED AND ONE INJURED. # yauuul accident occurred on the Erie Railroad, near the Sloatsburg station, about thirty-six miles from Jer- sey City, on Friday evening, about 6 o'clock. It appears that three young girls, between twelve and fifteen yeare- of age, named respectively Acker, Wilson and Merritt, were walking on the track, when they observed the- freight train coming towards them, and they imme- diately crossed over to the other track, when the- passenger train from the West, which had come up unobserved, bore down upon them, and the only warniny they had was the shrill engine whistle, which noti them of their danger when it was too late. The cow- catcher struck all three of the girls, and one of them, Miss Catherine E. Wilson, was inswutly killed; her skull was fractured and one of her arms torn off. Miss Acker was cut through the middle of the body and died couph hours. Miss Merritt was thrown off the wack, and cut severely about thi ad’; hei recovery Is despaired off. The greatest excitement in reference to the matter prevailed in the neighborhood, and the engi- neer was gai blamed for not giving more-warning when he saw the girls. An inquest was held on the bodies op Saturday morning, and a verdict was rendered inculpatf®g the engineer of the passenger train, the com- plaint being that he did not stop the speed of the train, It was rumored that he gave himself up to the authorities Without waiting to be arrested, CELEBRATION O¥ Tu FoUuRTH oF JULY.—A meeting of the joint committees of the Aldermen and Councilmen, om arranging for the celebration of the Fourth of July, was. called for yesterday, at 3 P.

At the first meeting Councilman Barney was- elected Chairman, and the majority of the Aldermen not liking this, they have since refused to come in and cO-ope- rate with the Councilmen. The following letter was sey to the Clerk of the Councilmen, announci for keeping aloof: eine SE eee Mr. Duyy, (nigger worshiZper) of Ind., expressing a wish to strike down what has led to the present disturb- ances and restore things to where they were previous to the Kansas-Nebraska act, offered an amendment substan- wally to restore the Missouri compromise. Mr. Grow, (nigger worshipper) of Pa., moved the pre- vious question. Mr. Watxen, (K.N.) of Ala., made an unsuccessful mo- tion to adjourn, and then moved to lay the bill on the tble,which was negatived by 70 against 101. ‘Thedemand for the previous question was sustained by 98 against 63. the first basinal PURSS. then, grdgped. that the bill be Adjourned. ing the Isthmus, excited murmurs of jongst the industrious portion of QUnSU, “Ferry aww Mlat Panama.

HIS ARRIVAL AT LOCKPORT--RECEPTION BY THE GI- TIZENS—SPEECH OF GOV. HUNT. Locxrorr, Sune 28, 1856. Mr. Fillmore reached Lockport at 10 o’clock this morn- ing. He was received at the depot by a large number of citizens, on horseback and in carriages, with a company of military and music. A procession was formed, and Mr. Fillmore conducted to the American Hotel, where he was received by Gov. Hunt, who welcomed him home and said :—While our citizens recognize in you an emi- ment citizen, who has attained the highest distinc- tion by virtue of integrity, ability aad an honest veal in the service of the country, they feel a just pride in those free institutions which develope manly energies and consti- tute merit and patriotism—the true passport to public honors. It has been your lot to bear a conspicuous part in national history, end to act upen important measures which haye excited deep interestand produced graye con- flicts of opinion. These differences ought not, amoag liberal, reflecting minds, and surely will not be permitted to weaken the sentiments of respect so justly due to your public character and private virtues. If, by some heal- ing miracle, the disturbing questions, which have proved £0 fruitful in domestic strife, could to-day be terminated by restoring the basis established during your adminis- tration of the government—if all the evils engendered by the subsequent departures from that policy could now be blotted out forever from history, no one can doubt that a large majority of the American people, of all parties and in all sections of our common country, would truly ro- oice, and indulge in brighter hopes of the permanence of our national liberty, our union and independence.
