A German Fremont meeting was beld in Chicazo ga tha ‘28th inst., which waa attended by six thousand Germans. Thomas H. Benton, Jr, of Iowa; Captain Jacob, of Missouri; J.

So much for the veracity of the writer of the slip vent we, which is fuise tn every partand portion. gotten up for bad purposes; hence [am induced togive it @ fat contradiction, but bereafter I sbali not reply to such trash, Col. Fremont being fuily able to defend himself against these news- paper slanders. J. B. BRANT. A writer in the Wellsburg (Va.) Herald, who is evi ¢ently a Southern non slaveboider, speaks out in charch in the following strain:— We are taxed to support slavery. The clean cash goes out of our ownporkets into the pockets of the 4! wider, ‘and this in many ways. I will now allude to but two. Ifaslave, for crime, is pnt to death or transported, the wner is paid for him out of the public treasury, and jer this law tnousands are paid out every year. Again, a standing army is kept he the city of Richmon! for no other purpose than to be ready to quell insnrrestion among the slaves; this is paid fur out of the public trea sury annually. This standing army is called the public uard, bot ic is no less a standing army always kept up. e Will quote from the acts of 1350 the expease of these two items to the State, on the 22d and 24th pages of the Acv:——"“To pay for slaves executed and transported, $22,(Cc,"" “to the public guard at Richmond, 0."" This, he it noticed, is only for one year, making near $50,(00 for these two objects in one year; but it can bo sbowr by the present upequal plan of taxation between slave property and other property, that this is but @ mati item of our cash pxketed by the siayehoiders; sad yet some will say we bave no reason to compian. ‘The New Orleans Delta says there are three names be fore the people for the Presidency—Fremont, Filimore and Bucharau—the Jest of whicd aloae has any real politi cal significancy atiached to it. The aspect of Fillmore is that of the ancient Janut: be bas a Northern aad & Souta- ern face—a face of brass and a face of goit. The aspect of Buchanan ia the same Fremont, mean « slagle countenance, and that is eniachingly turmed to ‘wards the North. The Fillmore mon are trying har¢ to come the “na tional’? dodge. For some time they have been crying aloud in the North that, if Fremoat ls elected, tho South Will diesgve the Union. Now they are setting up a how! in the South, that, if Buchanan is triumphant, the North will “tear asunder the bands that bind tals glorious con federacy.’” This is fair, The danger of the disruption o the Union will be about as great in one case a5 in the other.

DB, bE WITT. ‘The old North Dutch church, of which we gave a dee eripticn ip the Berarp of Saturday last, was re-opened yesterday, baving been cloeed for the past seven o: cight weeks while undergoing ® compiete renovation. Ali the seats were filled, ard the ability of the sexton was taxed to tis utrrest to find room for those who were attracted by the interest of the occasi: The Rev. Dr. De Witt, who delivered tho opeving ser By b, took advantage of tho opportunity to give a histo rv al sketch of the church, which was listened to with the deepest attention. When be roferred with just pride to its old arsociations, his congregation seemed to partici his fcelingr of tove sad veneration for the oid Alter the ueval religious exercises, the r verend gen tleman ¢eliyered the eermon, taking bi: text from the Sth veree of the 48th lsat We have honest of thy midst of thy temple.

There is something peculiar im it. bot I don’t know whether it was a family cost of arms or designed expressly for the church. Thc motto is “Dan. do Conservat, which, translated, Fizuifies “by giving away be seoures his property; or which ta other words means, the bert security you cen have for your property ts to have a heart to be good with it. it is this motto which i which ho gave bas led me to doubt whether it was an original family coat of arma, or derigned for the ‘pose to which it has been appropriated. From the year 1769 Dr Ladiey min istered in the English language. and twouncient ministers when they were able to preach preached in the Dutch lave e. After this the congregation Axed their eyes upon @ young map who had goue to Holland to finish his education; and after inquiries not oply with regard to his acquirements and spiritual charactor, but as to whether he bad voice to ail the church, they seat bim a cordial invitation, and he returned with the highest honors gained in Holland, and became one of their most zealous pastors. The young man was after- wards known apd beloved as the venerable Dr. Jehu H Livingston. Three of the clurches, conti rued the reverend speaker, that were erected’ in or a Intle subsequent to the middie of the iast century have parsed away. These were the Scotch Presbytertan, ir which Dr. Mason preached, and which was built in 1768; the Lutheran eborch, which you may remember stood on the corner of Franka street, and whieh was erected m 1707; snd the Cerman Relor med chureh, below Nassau ftreet, which was opened cearly about the same time. At this period the city was comprised within the raves of theee cherches. They were a little out of the city, itis tree, ard St. Paul's church was built io the flelds. Now we come to the Revyolutiopary war, whea the spirit of the pec og was aroused by the injustice and aggressions of the Briti*h government.
