Politics occupied the public mind to the exclusion of other subjects. In San Francisco there ‘was s movement on foot to unite the various ele- ments in opposition to the democrats, who are the bitter enemies of the Vigilance Commit- tee. It was somewhat doubtful, however, whe- ther the project would succeed, and in the event of failure the triumph of the democrats was regarded as certain. The democrats have no- minal ies L. Scott and Joa. C. McKibben for Congr They are of the Gwin or anti-Brode- wick faction. Messrs. John L. Durkee and Charles BE. Rand bad been tried on a charge of piracy, for assisting in the removal of the State arms from on board the schooner Julia, in the harbor of San Brancisco, during the reign of the Vigilants. The jary rendered a verdict of acquittal, after but five minutes’ deliberation. A suit had been brought against the Panama Railroad Company, to recover $20,000 damages for injuries received by the accident of the 6th of May last. A number of other parties were awaiting the result of the action. Judge Terr y had vesumed his seat apon the bench. Trade was dall im San Francisco, but with the removal of social disorders a retarn of business activity was coni- dently looked for. From New Granada we learn that Gov. Calro was iwaugurated at Panama on the 1th instant. This event ensures a peaceful condition of things on the Isthmus for some time to come. We have dates from Callao to the llth and Val- paraiso to the 2lst inst. They furnish nothing of importance. Anustralic dates to the Ist of July have been re- ceived, bu’ unfortunately our files have failed to reach us. From Kingston, Ja., there is nothing of special mterest. We publish to-day some additional news from Eu- rope, taken from our files by the Niagara. The arrival of the American schooner Dean Richmond at Liverpoel, direct from Chicago, had caused a great sensation in the mercantile community, owing to the fact of her having by her successful voyage opened a new trade route from the lakes of the great West, sixteen hundred miles above Quebec, to Europe. The log of the vessel, of which we give a copy, will be found very interesting. The United States frigate Merrimac was an object of much ad- miration at Southampton. Her armament and gene- ral fitting up attracted the attention of the highest pava! officers of England. Our naval correspondent on board the United States chip Savannah, at Rio Janeiro, sends usa letter with news from that port, dated to the Ist of September. A report having reached the crew to the effect that the Secretary of the Navy had said the Savannah would not be relieved until December, the men were much excited,as over three hbundred of them bave exceeded the term of their epgagement, and demand a release from service. Many expressions ominous of mutiny, or at least riot, were beard in the ship. Some French, English and Russian vessels were in port. The Unite] States ship Germantown was ready to sail for Montevideo, with officers and crew well. Several theatrical stars were performing on shore, and American politics were daily discussed. The Savannah looked like a moseum, as #0 fall of tropical animals and other curiosities lected for home presents. Rio was healthy. A revolution was hoariy expected at Mon. tevideo. An important scientific exploring expedition i now on its way to the scene of its active labors. I is composed of Professor E. C. Francis, of lowa; Professor N. ©. Moore, late President of the lowa State Lyceum of Natural History; Professor Silli man, son cf Professor Silliman, of Yale College, and one or two other scientific gentlemen. The ob- ject is a thorongh exploration of the fauna, fora and geological chiracter of a region of South Ame rica of which we have but a very imperfect know ledge, avd which has not been traversed by any in telligent foreigner since the explorations of Hum boldt, haif a century ago. The gentlemen allnded. to above expect to find, on reaching the beaatiful vailey of the Canca river, a corps of Ameriean en gineers, who have been sent out from this city by Gen. Mosquera, for the parpose of opening a rod from the valley to the port of Buenaventura, on the Pacific. After pursuing their investigations in ey they will cross the Andes, and examine the jects of interest in New Granada. Thence proceed. ing to the southward, they will ascend the valley of the upper Magdelena, and visit the ancient Spanish cities of La Plata and San Augustin. At this point they will seek some of the bead waters of the mighty Amazon, and follow their course through the great level regions of Southern America until they empty into the Atlantic Ocean. This undertaking bas been set on foot and is supported by some pub: lic spirited gentlemen of lows, and althongh it has received the approbation of many public men of that State no government aid has yet been extended ‘to it. We mentioned yesterday that the old paper mill at Windsor Locks, belonging to Perase & Brooks, was destroyed by fire on Satarday night. It is sup posed to have occurred from spontaneous comons- tion. The fire was stopped at the south partition ‘wall, after burning about twe thirds of the building. ‘The most valuable part of the machinery and the stock in the mill were saved. The new mill is nn- njured. We learn that the property was insured in several offices in Providence, Hartford and New York for $50,500. A man named McIntyre was shot dead in Phila deiphia on Sunday morning, during the extinguish. ment of a fire. Some forty persons, comprising all the members of the Shiffler Hose Company, and three men from Baltimore, supposed to belon: to one of the gang: recently engaged in the election riots in that city, were arrested. Florida has evidently gone against Buchanan. Nine counties have been heard from, and the demo- eratic loss is nearly four hundred. Pierce carried the State In 1852 by 1,443 majority. The cotton market was active on Saturday, with © lee of between 3,000 and 4,000 bales, which pretty well swept the market, and jncluded some lots to arrive. Middling uplands closed at about 13c. per Tb. Flour was firmer, and closed at an advance of about 5c. per barrel. Wheat was steady, with fair sales of red at $1 48 a $1 52—the latter figure for choice—and white at $1 60 8 $1 61 a $1 62 for South- ern and Western white. Corn was sold moderately at @6c. a 67c. Pork was in rather better demand, with sales of mess at #2050 a $20 62}. Sugars were again quite active, and sold at full prices. The sales embraced 15,000 a 20,000 hhds. Cuba muscovado, part to refiners and part to jobbers, with probably some lots on speculation. Coffee was quiet. Freights were unchanged, with moderate engagements. The value of foreign goods imported at the port ot Boston during the week ending 10th inst. amounted to $867,457. The Reign of Terror—W1ll a Free People any Longer Endure It} A reign of terror has hung out its black flag of sedition, treason and nullification over one-half the American Union. In all our Southern States, excepting little Delaware, there is as little of po- litical liberty as in Russia; and a meaner, and more sneaking, and more remorseless espionage over the liberty of speech and the public press than in any of the Italian provinces of Austria. Under the auspices of the Jacobin democracy this invisible and lawless despotiam of the South has become as inexorable as the savage Commit- tee of Public Safety of that horrible first French Revolution; and as blood-thirsty as Robespierre, Marat and Danton. Such is the fierce and shame- less despotism which reigns over the South, and such is the government to which the rotten de- mocracy are laboring to subdue the North, under threats of disunion, a robbery of the public trea- sury and civil war. This overshadowing evil ef the day is the ripen- ing fruit of those seeds of corruption and discord which were planted at Washington by this Pierce administration. There was in 1853 peace upon the slavery question—Mr. Pierce was pledged to continue this peace, and studiously to avoid any- thing calculated to disturbit. But, false to the people, false to his pledges and faithless to his trust in every way, he re-opened the box of Pandora, and scattered its seeds of mischief broadcast over the land. He sold himself and the peace of the country, his party, his character, his conscience, his body and soul, for that paltry messof pottage—the support of the nigger-driving Jeaders of the democratic party at the Cincinnati Convention. But they had sucked Him dry like an orange, and they cast the empty shell away. They sought another man, equally reliable as an instrument, but better calculated for their pur- poses of public deception in the North. We see, however, that so far from there being any abate- ment in the Southern democratic policy of tes rorism and nullification with the nominatiou of Mr. Buchanan, his name, his influence, his pledges and his authority have all been used to sink the constitution in Kansas, at Washington, and in fourteen States of the Union, and to threaten us with disunion and an armed invasion if the rest do not submit. For practical purposes of their own—for office, profit, spoils and plunder—Jeff. Davis, the demo- cratic Mephistophiles at Washington, and Atchi- son, his right hand man in Kansas, and poor Pierce, their suppliant tool, set this policy of ruflian tyranny in motion. The results have disgraced the country in the eyes of the whole world. Armed invasions of ruffian mercenaries, terrorism, ballot stuffing, spurious Kansas Legis- latures and their bloody laws, have been fol- lowed up by the dragoon’s sabre, the raffian musket, pistol, bayonet, bowie knife; by murder, scalping, robbery, aud other crimes too revolting to think of, until the plains of Kansas have been reddened with the blood of its unhappy settlers, ond blackened with the ashes of their houses burned to the ground. Next, we see this contagion of terroriam break- ing out at Washington—in fights and rows, and fearful homicides. and in brutal violence, even within the sanctuary of the American Senate chamber—and next we find the whole South under a rigid blockade of democratic spies and informers, to cross which a passport is as neces- sary to a New Yorker or Pennsylvanian as at the Austrian frontier. Anywhere beyond Delaware it is only necessary for some hireling demo- cratic vagabond to get up the hue and ery of “abolitionist” against any Northern stranger, to put him in peril o} South of Mason and Dixon's, in fac try is under a despotiem worse (han that of Aus- tria, because it i« a lawless, invisible and irre- sponsible despotiem. It is, however, a complete de ism of an democratic reign of terror. ‘There is no such thing as a free press in the South, except here and there a straggler close to the Northern border: there is no such thing a free speech. except here and there on the part of a man whose position, influence and family aseo- ciations—Mr. Botts, for render it dan- gerove to disturb him. the bitter fruits of this wrotehed reduc ng disc 1 to the whip and spur of th ganizers disunionist Is this state of things any longer to be endured? Will the people of the } till free, etill living up to the free gifts of the consti- n, free speech, a free prese, and the right of people peaceably to assemble in the discussion of public affairs—will this free people of the f North thi vote themselves und Southern i despotism scarcely }« born white man thas 1 er dr humiliating to a free African slavery itself? We say this in all so riousness; for when a free born white man can consent to have his pen aud his voice under the control of a censorship like that of the ruMan Southern democracy, and can ery “ hurrah’ for the party which thus ties him up in bondage, he is ready to mount the block and be sold at auc- tion, likea nigger. We await, upon this ques tion, the judgment to-morrow of the free peopl of Pennsylvania. Kaxeas—Goversor Geary Crxantyve Tar Ort—According to a despatch which we pub- lished yesterday, from Chicago, “ a party of Kan- fas emigrants, chiefly from Ohio, Mlinois and Wisconsin, to the number of about 300, including women and children, on arriving at Taber, lowa on the Ist inst., received intelligence of the ap- proach of Governor Geary with 250 dragoons to oppose their entrance into the Territory, They, however, determined to proceed on their journey till fired upon, and it was expected they would meet the troops at Little Nebraska river on the 4th inst.” Governor Geary is a man of action. He is doing his work evidently with the purpose of securing Kansas asa slave State before the expiration of this administration. We expect, however, a little popular thunder from Penneyl- vania to-morrow, and from Obio and Indiana, that will blow this project of Governor Geary into ten thousand fragments. We are sorry for it— but a week hence we fear there will be a sad rednetion in the price of Kansas niggers, Look cut. Canpwwates FoR CoNGRESS FROM THIS Crry.— The several political factions in this city have completed their Congressional nominations, and the following is a full list of the same:— Dist. Dem. American. _ 3.—H. ebees, + te Phonan Guy fe Pelton. D.E. P. pe 4.—Jobn Kelly.” i. Fred. L. W. Ryckman. b-—W. B. Maclay, D. L. Northrup, Geo. . Andrews. 6.—Jno, Cochrane, Aras G. Williams, ‘Thos, B. Billman 1.—Elijab Ward, George Jas, W. Nye. J.SCSmith,Jr., Joba 8.—Hor. F. Clark, Shepherd Knapp, Abr’am Wakeman. At the election next month there are six mem- bers of the lower House to be chosen by the people of this city, and we give above the names of twenty-two regular candidates, all of whom, doubtless, are perfectly confident of success. They are, with a few exceptions, like the candi- dates for Congress usually nominated in this city, remarkable for their entire want of qualifi- cations, capability and character to fit them for the high position to which they aspire. The city of New York is the metropolis of the Union. It is the great centre of attraction around which we find all the leading intellects in the political, religious, literary and artistic world of the republic. To this metropolis come men of genius from all parts of the United States, con- scious that here will be freely accorded to them that reward and appreciation which is too often denied them at home. They all expect, sooner or later, to take up their residence in New York, and enter in the great race for fame, honor, pros- perity—the prizes which an enlightened commu- munity freely bestow upon genius, talent, enter- prise and well directed industry. The city of New York is a cosmopolitan city. It is at once the Paris and London of this continent, and in its wonderful progress in commerce, literature, the fine arts and the exact sciences, truly typifies the glory of the republic. Yet, in spite of the multitude of great minds here and the wonderful progress of the metropo- lis, our representatives in the Congress of the nation have lately been the smallest kind of small potatoes; with here and there an exception, they have been far below those sent from the wildest border and roughest rural districts. Thirty or forty years ago, when New York had not at- tained anything like the commanding position it now ozcupies, the city was represented by states- men—men who discharged the trust delegated to them by the people with credit to themselves and to their constituents. Now, how great is the contrast! This lamentable state of things has been brought about by the system of primary meetings and small nominating conventions, which have thrown all political action into the hands of the lowest classes—vagabonds of the meanest kind, and corrupt knaves from the worst dens in the city, have been put forward to choose the men who are to represent us in the halls of Congress. The inevitable consequence of these corrupt proceedings has been that the Congres- sional nominations have been put up for sale and knocked down to the highest bidder, precisely as the glib gentlemen in Wall street sell off a cargo of codfish, whale oil, molassses or other commodity. Yet even under this deplorable sys- tem we perceive that—doubtless owing to the natural tendency to do a good thing occasionally, which is found in the most debased minds—seve- ral good men have been nominated in the list we furnish, while others are totally unfit for the posi- tion which they hope to gain. We shall make ourown selections from the no- minations thus put forward, and sustain our can- didates to the best of our ability. It is time that the democrats, Americans and republicans, as mere party organizations, should be broken up altogether, and that the nomina. nations made by either of them should be treated with utter contempt, unless the nominees shall Le fully qualified for the duties of the office to which they are named. We declare, as we have always declared, that we are perfectly free from all party shackles. We support Fremont, not upon party grounds; and shall select other can- didates without the slightest regard to conven- tions, caucusses or any other political humbugs. The city of New York has a duty to perform to the country. It has an independent press cir- culating nearly a million anda half of sheets, sending them out by railways and steamboats to all parts of the Union, giving light to the whole public, Our members of Congress should act in concurrence with this independent press, which is the true representative of the public heart, and if they should do so, without reference to party ties, the city of New York would be able to exercise an influence in the councils of the nation equal to that of any six States in the Union, We shall shortly proceed to select and announce our Congressional candidates from this city. a ~S A Bow Vows from tre Heart o ron Fremoxt axp Freepom.— id, strong and startling letter of Professor of the University of North Carolina, which we publish today. We find it in the d, the editor of which recom- mends the expulsion of the rebellious pro- fessor from the State. This editor is, of course, an ardent Buchanan man, and he speaks the true doctrine of the party when he says that “the ex- pression of black republican opinions in our midst is incompatible with our honor and safety as a people: that “that man is neither a fit nor safi inetructor of our young men who even incline to Fremont and black republicanism,” and that ‘we take it for granted that Professor Hedrick will be promptly removed.” This is proof di- rectly to the point concerning that democratic ruffian terrorism which is now the government of the South. But what says this bold, rebellious Profem of the University of North Carolina—a learned. candid, dispassionate and independent man—who holds his constitutional liberty of speech (like Mr. Botts) above the fear of democratic mobs, and flings his defiance in their teeth? What says he? He says: “I am in favor of the election of Fremont to the Presidency,” “because I like the man,’ “born and educated at the South,” “lived at the North and West, and therefore has had an opportunity of becoming acquainted with our whole people.” Good Union man, that, sure enough. “He is known and honored at home and abroad.” Good again. So he is. “ He has shown his love of country by unwavering devo- tion to its interests.” Better still, and all cor- rect; for Mr. Buchanan says he is “ the conqueror of California.” Professor Hedrick further says that Fremont, in every position “ and under all circumstances,” in any task assigned him, “ has always possessed the courage to undertake and the wisdom to carry it through.” Marcy endorses that. But again, this North Carolina hero of Chapel Hill goes for Fremont “because Fremont is on the right side of the great question which now disturbs the public peace;” that “opposition to slavery extension is neither a Northern nor a sec- tional ism,” that “it originated with the great NOLINA Southern statesmen of the Revolution.” And #0 on, all the way through. Read this letter of Professor Hedrick. Let it be circulated everywhere, North and South. It is full of solid argument, and embodies much of instructive and interesting matter concerning the working of slavery in the South; and this testi- mony becomes a thousand times more valuable and instructive from the fact that it is the evi- dence of a man born and educated in the midst of Souther slavery. He gives this testimony voluntarily, in the face of great personal dan- ger--his least perils being his immediate expul- sion from his professorship and from his native State. Freemen of Pennsylvania! the best men of the South are with this Fremont movement; and this is one who will not be gagged. Descendants of Penn and his pioneers of constitutional liberty! what is your verdict? Tue Purosoruy or Mr. Peasopy’s Dinners.— Mr. Everett made one of his happiest speeches at the great Peabody reception at Danvers, the other day. He enlivened, what was otherwise a dull dinner, with a most brilliant episode upon com- merce, and a peaceful tribute to the great inter- national banquets given by George Peabody in London. Neither Mr. Everett nor any of the other speakers at the dinner seemed to understand the facts of the case. Mr. Peabody, however, understands it perfectly, and so do his friends in Wall street. Man, and particularly the Saxon man, is more easily approached through the dia- phragm than by any other means. This isan aphorism, but everybody does not remember it at the right time. Merchants and bankers every- where know it, however, and the trader or finan- cier who gives the finest dinners to his customers makes the most money. Everybody knows what drumming is. Everybody has heard how nice young men, of pleasing exterior and thoroughly familiar with town life, are employed by the large wholesale mercantile houses to entertain their country customers with rather highly colored views of New York by gas light. These young men are amply supplied with funds to pay all the bills. The same system, varied according to circum- stances, is pursued by all the great European bankers. One of the partners or agents of the house has control of a fund set apart for the din- ing and wining of the customers of the concern. This is a capital investment and a splendid ad vertisement. Mr. Peabody, who is a shrewd" Yankee, improved upon the system, .and did his own drumming. He banqueted all his American customers and their friends, and sprinkled in a lord or two, a knight or a baro- net, and sometimes a hungry member of the lower House. Peabody’s dinners cost immense sums, and though the speeches were not equal to the turtle, and the toasts not quite so sparkling as the champagne, yet as dinners they were splendid, and they went straight to the Saxon heart or stomach—the same thing in a ma- jority of instances. Every one has a stomach to be touched—the heart is not always so sensitive. Mr. Peabody's purpose, in a philosophical and banking point of view, was to advertise the house of Peabody and bring trade to the shop. He succeeded, and all the money he lavished for outside purposes returned to him an hundred fold. The idea that his dinners had the most re- mote influence upon the diplomatic relations of the two countries is so intensely amusing that we wonder that even Mr. Everett, whose coolness and self-command are notorious, could refrain from laughing heartily when he touched the point. Re-orextc tue Stave Trape—We have been requested to publish an important commu- nication on this subject. We give it elsewhere in our columns. Our correspondent desires its publication at this time to influence the election to-morrow in Pennsylvania in favor of the demo- crate, It is our opitiion that he will be disap- pointed in its effect. Re-opening the slave trade, with all its barbarities, in this age of the world will not meet the approval of the honest masses anywhere, and certainly not north of Mason and Dixon's line. Thi plan was first publicly talked of about a year ago in the Charleston Mereu; and several other leading Buchanan organs at the South, and was then vehemently urged in that quarter. We now héve the horrible scheme, with the shocking scenes of the “middle passage,” fresh in our memory, more fully developed and urged upon Northern capitalists in the extraordi- nary letter which has been submitted to us for publication. In atrocity it beats the Ostend manifesto out and out. Many think, however, it is a part of the same scheme. Tur Pexxsivanta Evection—Ba.ot Steve 1NG.—The Philadelphia Ledger has no fear of any extensive frauds in the Pennsylvania elections; for it says that “ the election laws of Pennsyly nia are the most stringent of any in existence, and are found to be the best guards of the purity of the ballot box. All the voting is done before eight o'clock in the evening, and in precincts so divided that almost all the voters are near neigh- bors, known to each other. Printed lists of the voters, their occupations and residences, have to be furnished the election officers, and are publicly posted at the polls.” ‘ ‘The only dangers, then, to be feared are intim! dation, spurious tickets, and bribery at the polls, and ballet stuffing, / Yankee Sullivan, when the polls are closed. Let the Union party look to these. Forney will no doubt find a Yankee Sullivan if he finds a chance to use him. Tur Orera iy New York—Someraie Rici Cowmne.—We are still in the receipt of numerous letters and communications in relation to the re- cent grand smash-up at Irving place, and the consequent danger to the Union by the suspen- sion of the Italian Opera in New York. Just now, however, the political affairs of the nation rather heavily upon our columns, yet we will take time enough to unravel all the operatic as well as the political difficulties—set all parties fairly and squarely upon their legs again, and condole with the fashionable world upon their great affliction. ‘This will be the work of time, and 4 portion of it must be postponed until after election, when we purpose to commence the publication of report of the fa- mous libel suit of Fry vs. Bennett, which took place last summer, which throws more light upon the mysteries connected with Opera management in America, and contains more startling developements of artistic and managerial intrigues than all the other publica- tions in the world—Maretzek’s famous book in- cluded. A full and impartial report of this great trial will be given to the public immediately after the ides of November, for which interesting jod several other literary gems, including the Chevalier Wikoff's great work on diplomacy, are patiently waiting in the hands of the printers, The developements in the Fry libel enit show very clearly the tremendous difficulties which beset the earlier managers, and will, we hope, prove @ beacon light to their successors, warning them off from the rocks and quicksands upon which Fry’s bark split. We hope, however, that the public and the Academy authorities will find some redeeming points in this eventful history which will encourage them to give poor Fry another chance, by which he may, with the assistance of his brother, the eminent composer, come out all right again, and redeem the fiasco of Astor place by a tremendous success at the Academy. Mr. Boyce Szconps THz Morion.—They have been holding in South Carolina (Columbia) ano- ther great democratic nullification and disunion jubilee, at which Mr. Boyce, one of the members of Congress from that section, distinguished him- self in seconding the motion of his colleagues, Mr. Brooks and Mr. Keitt, for nullification, revolution, disunion and civil war should Fre- mont be elected. They will submit to Buchanan for four years in consideration of the spoils; but after that we are to have disunion anyhow. Can the American people be bullied into submission by such barking and howling as this? We shall know in a day or two. Mr. Borts Sers Hiwserr Riewr—Read Mr. Botts’ letter in another column.
