President Fillmore connived at the turning out of Mr. Smith at the request of the Captain General of Cuba, who was the author of these insults to Ameri- -cun citizens, American interests, American vessels and the American flag. In view of these enormous and disgraceful facts, chow trifling is the attempt of Mr. Scroggs to make the public believe that ] have any “ personal” in- ‘terest in offering PA ” gt Mr. Fillmore’s cuipa- ble carelesaness and total disregurd of the rights of American citizens while be was actiag President? If there is any distortion on my part in my letter to Mr. Scroggs, it is that I did not allude to oue- tenth of the criminal neglects of American interests of which Mr. Fillmore was guilty while in power ; and this Filmore is the mau (for the first time since about four wecks) who has been bedowing so loudly for “ Americans to rule America.” I would like to know what kind of Americans are to rule america, and whether the American flag, American citizens, American interests and American vessels are to be vindicated and maheld, or whether they are to be utterly disregarded, as { have shown they were by Millard Fillmore daring his administration? “An American vessel bearing the «merican fla, mouset-be considered american soil, and protects al on board,” ssid the great Webeter. This is what we fought for in 1812, aud this is what the American believe in now. Not that Americun stips are be made targets of, their voyages broken up, and their passengers and crews butchered for the amuse- ment and gratification of foreign governments, as Br. Fillmore allowed and encoura, by his conduct during his administration. This i- the sae Mr. Fillmore who is now held up for the suffrages of ‘the American ple for chier magistrate of the mation--a positon wich he aiagraced by his former conduct. What American's bloud will not boil with aie when he is asked to vote for such 4 can- didate! Mr. Scroggs, in his letter, has much to say in disparagement of Mr. Fremont. Without any etéempt to haudle she feeble rewarks signed by Mr. Sovogge, L come at once to my view of the whole mawer. There are three candidates for the Presi- dency. [will not now say much more than I have eid in reference to the claims of Messrs. Bachanan gud F)Umore—both oid party backs. Tuey and their platforms are both sectioval. They have both trackled to the 350,000 slave owners of the Soush, and though the chances, judging from their former antecedents ave that ifeiiber one of those two is elected, tha (as their friends North promise that they will do) they will kick (he Southern sectional platform over board, betray the wep pet a fe ot — nd eg ahern purposes—yet I will not trust thera to eithe: one of them or tiycir irlenda promises.

But it is not worth while we should run the risk when we have a new man that we can elect, and that man one we know ‘to be separated from the corrupt party cliques and hacks, and is the candidate of the whole people, and will owe his election to them. .

GREAT TURN OUT OF FREGMEN AND FREMONTERS— 25,000 PEOPLE PRESENT—TREMENDOUS BXCITE- MENT. ° (Pom the Cincinnati Commercial, July 31) The special train which left the city for Dayton yesterday morning at six o'clock, consisted, of ar- riving at Dayton, of twenty-three cars, ali fuil, with [poten crowding the les and platforms, and eaped upon top of the cars. Menter’s Bra-s Baud, and anotber baud which came aboard at Hamilion, filled up the intervals between the thunder of the | three hundred strong, bandsomely car wheels, with strains of music. 4 very great proportion of those in the cars were young mea, whicb, considering that jt wus a “ Young Men's Convention” to which they were going, was pre- cisely apropos. Ail slong the road were manifvsta- tions of popular feeling, bidding us good speed to the beautitn! city of our destination, and iu the good cause of the day and age were made. Many who could not go with us shouted right heartily * Hurrah for Fremont!" Farmers at work in the fields pause 1 and waved their bats, and shouted at the railvoud anaconda which rolled by. As the weather played a somewhat importan’ part in the preecedings of the day, it may be well t» notice the symptoms of a storm which early present cd themselves. The night before will be renem- hered long in Cincinnati for its oppressive, hb » heat and suffocating sultriness. Mere warmth, how ever intense, would not have been so bad; but the vir seemed to have lost its oxygen. The morn n; was hot, and the shady side of the cars was well fiil- ed before the sunny side hud many ovcupants. The recent showers had the biessed effect of laying the dust, and the cars stirred tay breeze which was de- licious a8 4 vision of ice water in a fever dreasn. The fields tooked parshed, aud the corn had a strangu- lated, distressed appearance, while the clods of the valleys had the look of lumps of granite and the sireams, instead of Ciagtee, 3 with retreshing beauty, bad a most deplorable frog and mosquito poad ap- pearance, On Roving at Dayton, a procession was formed, and perhaps half of those who had been on the train walked in it, while the other kept time to the suusic, aud either felt or affected some degree of indepeai- ence along the side walks, all ‘‘keeping step to the music of the Union,” as Rufus Choate says, up Main street. The appearance of the town was decidedly Fourth of Julyish, hundreds of flags fluttering from the windows and house tops, and great banuers with mottoes stretched across the broad streets. We presume a listof the inscriptions on these flags would be wearisome rather than interesting, as they were the usual watchwords and catch phrases of the republicans, already familiar to all. “Freedom, Fremont, Free Soil, Free Labor, Free Kansas,” &c , were conspicuous. Dayton is a splendid city for a Coy mass convention. It is the only place out West, with which we are familiar, where there seems to have been plenty of land when the town was laid out, The streets are wide and beautiiul, and the number of elegant residences environed by shade trees would surprise a r not warned to be prepared to see something lovely and comfortable. jut more than the beauty of Dayton does the hospitality of its citizens commend it. They won a noble reputation yesterday by throwing open their houses, Lidding sirangers make themselves ut home, and feasting the'r guests on the fattest and finest that the market aftords. There appeared to be a multitude of provisions. Neither the beginniog, the middle nor th; end could be seen. Everywhere were crowés of people—on the sidewalks, the roofs, ia the widows, ani about the crossings particularly, and most eopecy about the Phillips House and the Court House. € will not attempt to — at the numbers in town. There were enough. [{ would not have been any gratifica- tion to us to have seen more. Between 10 and 11 o’clo.k the various processions resolved themselves into ove huge array, which moved endlessly through the streets. The banners, streamers, flags and de- vieos were very numerous, and some of them deei- dedly quaint. We will not be at pains to specify in many cases, as it is, per bops, sufficient to say that all the par apbernalia of political processions were there. The flags were numerous. On many of them were the names of the States. One beautiful banner, shrouded co crape, .was inscribed “ tacle, a ggested, was truly impressively mournft There were huge wagons with fair young gir! dressed in white, Learing flags with the names of all the States; our erring sisters of the South not for gotten. And here again the girls representing Kan eas were clad in deep mourning, and there was no thing light or fantastic or trivial in thi» either, but only a sed sensation was excited. In one wagon was a Ulackemith at the forge. and other mechanics at work, with the motto:;—“We don't work for ten cents per day.” In one rude vebicle, a wood wagon, were a crowd of Missourians, with an efligy hanging by the neck, sup) to represent a free State man, bung in the vindication of “law and order.” In another place wes a “Southern sovereign” engaged in the delectable and patriotic operation of wallop- ping his nigger, ard singing “Hail Columbia.” The number of inscriptions on the bancers referring in terms of devotion to the constitution and the Union was somewhat remarkable. The grandest display in the procession was a regiment of cavalry from Xenia, uniformed and -vell mounted, and a most gallant spectacle they preeented, being universally applauded and admired. ‘There was a strong turn out tom Columbus, and a brilliant banner borne by the boys of that town. One delegation had an original painting of Colonel Fremont, which excited considerable attention. An eccentric individual, a large gud powerful man, oppeared in the strects dreased in'a calico coat with @ very voluminous as his hands and poc- eta ‘full of revolvers and knives, with his painted to seer as if smeared with blood, and upon his head was inscribed, “ en A. Douglas,” und then followed some mystical characters, the inten- tion of which, we presume, was to signity that he (Douglas) was the representative of the squatter, alias ruffian sovereignty. This individual had a reat, hoarse horse voice, aud attracted a multitude fy declaring himself “Stephen A. Dor om ng d—d scoundrel, and no mistake,” weapons and making border ruflian speeches ia the style of the ha: ues of Atchison before the sack- ing of Lawrence. He made his great speech from — of the Phillips House, to a street fall of folks. The procession was countermarching on Main street, in front of the Plullips House; the air was obscured by dust and trembled with the noise of many bands, (how many we may not guess, but certainly enough.) and the border ruiians were ex vected. when heavy cloud, which had been gather- ng and rolling up in the west, sending out flashes of little feathery dots of vapor, the spray of the great billow of storm, seemed to make a rush, and a wairl- wind stirred up a flag of dust from the trampled streets, made the flag staf shiver and some of the standard bearers to quail. The horsemen, of which at least there were near a thousand, looked at the storm sweeping up in the west for a minute, whea he captains seemed to pass the word to charge, aud nm the thunder of hoofs ap the street was prodi ons, and so thick a dust was raised that nothin, could be seen but the plames, and banners an streamers of the horeemen, noddi and Senate, as the horses went off like a herd of buffaloes, to what place of security from the storm we could not learn.

In many town ebips there is not a solitary Fillmore man, and in vearly every county in the State, the pro-slavery Know Nothing faction has dwindled until it is be- neath contempt. Such is the news brought in (rom the rural districts. As between Buchanan and Fre- mont, there is no doubt whatever but Fremont will carry the State by a tremendous vote, ranging from fifty to one hundred thousand majority, owing to the disposition that may exist among the people to turn out. The rain came on soon after eleven o'clock, and fell with come profusion. The sky was dreary, the streets wet, and the appearance of heaveuly affairs was decidediy damp and dismal. Bat the people kept their spirits up. To many the rain seemed to act a8 a stimulant, and the coolness of the air, late so feverish, was grateful and wholesome. We had the pleasure of examiaing the splendid flag, prepared by the Dayton indies, for presentation to the largest delegation from any of the counties. It was of splendid silk, well proportioned, exquisitely made wp, anda fine eagle adorned the tip of the ete. We bave never sven a more tasteful and rich banner. The news that Burlingame was in town was re- ceived with lively satisfaction, for the placky man- nerin which he bore himselt through the late diMi- culty with Bully Brooks has made him dear to the yeople. Multitndinous inquiries were made for him, Pat it was announced that he could see no one, hav. ing lost several night's sleep, ard being in the act of wooing “nature's aweet restorer.’ It wae men- tioned, as acurious and noteworthy circumstance, that Mr Burlingame is a native of this State, who, being educated at Cambridge, fell in love with and married a Yankee girl, and settled in Massach isetts, The fact that he was by birtha Western man, per. haps accounts for bis partiality to the rifle. Ajout one o'clock the border ruffians from In dace, eee rain, turned out, an | ex- tha: oa migh' “—o a sensation. A more hideous 0 ‘waa ney witnessed. First marched the devil, a big black NEW YORK ‘MERAL D, MONDAY, AUGUST 4, 1856, devil, with hoofs, horns, tail and ears; next a wi { inet, a col etal | with Pierce and his cabi ection of frig! caricatures of bomanity, with various labels; thea | marched fantustic group, looking like a company } of baboons dressed in a mixture of Chinese and Indian costumes, and playing soldiers. They out- ear-bquaked the “Earthquakes.” Some ot them had | swords ten feet long and marched ee giving | all manner of orders, and throwing themselves into | uncouth postures, The field officers were mounted on asses. The alognrion! groups were arranged oa fseorna, #0 fixed as to rest on wood wagons. t would take more spare time than we can give to describe even one of tnese with particularity. The border ruffian music was not, we think, of a kind likely to “ soothe the savage breast,” if that concord of souvds which we are in the Imbit of calling music has that effect, for it was unearthly. Imagine a genuine old fash- ioned serenade, with tin horns, and tin pans, and bells and drums, mingled with the hootiag of owls, and you have something like it. Nothing could have been more like the tumult than may be expect- ed when the injunction of the Weatern poet — Sound the hew gag; Whack the Dom buzzy, Beat the ton jon, Let the big Hoganpa ring And mivcellancous things rip generally. is obeyed. On one platform the operation of tarring ‘rd feathering a free State man was io progress. On another a man in a cage typilied the free State prisoners confined on a charge of treason. The vuiforms worn were ridiculous enormisies—caps six fect high, coats of “ many colors” aud extriordinary cut, belts adorned with’ weapons of border raffian warfwe, and transpasencies with remarks of the “ won't submit” and the ‘ we'll subdue” parties, were among the features. Wherever this grotesque, picturesqve, and certainly high fi eatin, array passed, the populace 7 d out oF their houses, made wondering observations, and laughed to the extent of their capacity for langhter. tng moved through the streets in the following order :— 1. His Satanic Majesty leading his earthly army. 2. Pierce an? his Cabinet in a boat. ais 8. Buchanan and Breckinridge. 4. Filibusters, led by Walker. a 5.

During the time that the border ruflian crowd was passing the Phillips House the crowd upon the balco- Dies was #0 excessive that a portion of the railiv; gave way, and several gentlemen were precipitated into the street and badly hurt. Two were 6» much injured that they had to bo carried away, and three others we observed to walk off bleeding and lame. The tain continued to fall gradually, put fast enough to = essentially dampen summer cloth- ing, and sufficient to spoil the extensive arr ments for the mass gathering at Phillips Hill. “the muultitude swayed two and fro, and appeared anxious to co something after the manner of conventions. ‘Th numerous drums were enthusiastically belabor- ed, the fifes squealed, and the brazen horns brayed out lustily. Atlength announcements were made that there would speeches made immediately st various places, in order to entertain the people. Messrs. Cassius M.Clay and Caleb 8. Smith, were to speak from the Court House steps. Messra, Snson urlingame, of Masa , and RM. Corwiue, of Cincic- natti, at the Market House. Clay and Corwine were soon under way, but cot one manin twenty could get within earshot of them. Several thousand people eng wen inspite of the rain, to the grove, aud here bounteously baptised from the urns of the skies, their patience and their patriotism were put to the test (or a weary season. At lust they pro- cured an eloquent speaker in Goy. Bingham, who talked to them by the hour in the rain, mach to their iatwfaction, A huge crowd gathered abopt the Court Heute steps to hear Clay, and while all heard him who could, and shouted applause at couvenien* intervals, those beyond the reash of his voice would _— up the yell of approbation and swell it loud an ong. I M. Corwine bad a very large assembl ge at the Market House, to whom he dealt out po itical wis in his peculiarly emphatic style. A great num of persons thought that the man amaking was burlipgame, and were very sure they saw ia his per- son, and beard in his voice, strong signs of pluck. Such questions and answers as these were incessant: ly heard in the throng: “Who's tha’ speaking?’ “Why, it’s Burlingame, who backed out Brooks see the grit there, eh?” “There's fight in that fellor he wouldn't face the music—you can see that stick- ing out.” “There's game there,” c., &c. Now it is very probable that all this is trae of Mr. Corwine; but nm it wasa little funny that it was not the ee ed with a strong rin, voice, who was the man on whom these es were la- vished Mr. Burlingame, a very pleasant and neat entlewan, looking more like a than a war nse, Was, however, on the form. Ounce Mr. Corwine referred to Brooks, and “three cheers for the man who backed him down” were called for and given with a will, and then repeated with augment- ed vehemence. When Mr. Corwine concluded, Mr. Burlingame commenced his speech, being received with rapturous enthusiasm, and alter proceeding for a few moments announced that he would finish at Clegp's Hall, for which place then the crowd had a rough andtumble race through the rain and mud. The ball was speedily filled to ite utmost capacity, ond Mr. Burlingame a |. He is of about the medium size, well and firmly built, with a stropg and refined intellectual appearance, fi complexion and light hair, and a small white hand, and was dressed in a light summer suit. He wears his hair cropped short, aud his beard in English style, a pair of short whiskers haviog a few wetks development. ia peer personal ap- pearance is very much that of Rev.

Then cheers were given for Burlingame—now in the street was heard the tumult of a vast assemblage shouting for Burlingame, and presently a band across the way poured forth, good and strong, the bewitching notes of “Pop goes the Weasel.” Burlingame couldn't stand it, but paused, and there were urgent cries of “Go on, go on.” He said he wontd goon if they would hear him, and they roared at him to proceed. He started ont again, but the outside pressure, the noise and confusion, the swell and and sweet- ness of the music, and the shouting, the calls for Burlingame, and_ the cheers, were overwhelming, and an effort was made to breek down the window that he might be seen by both those inside and outeide, but this was unsuceessfal, and at length Mr, Burlingnme was constrained to go to the street and finish bia re- marks.
