When he heard of bright' illness, he sent him a latter e ffering him the use of his bouse in the south of France ; this was declined on the score of ite not being the right kind Of hit.' Brougham then wrote back, and made him a present of his collected works. When the Doctor heard of Ibis he said, "I see that Brougham is deteHnineil to kill me some how," "jr The Black Cockade' which for o many years was the bug bear of Democracy, wm once upon a lime word through Hit streets of Lancaster by James Buoban an, during oil canvass a the eandinate of the Federal .partt for.

It seems to me, sir, that every representative of tho free North shot speak out at this lime, however bi ii fly. order that a moral picture of the unaniti. i ly ol sentiment which beats in the north ern heart may be reflecttd by her true rep resentatives, and held up lor exhibition to tne world, that all may see and lullv un derstand that, in no idle spirit of threats ana vaporing, but in all which evinces quiet, firm, and settled purpose, the North lias fully made up its mind that no more ol our ct mmon territory shall have impo sea upon it me Diigiiung institution siavtry an institution wlncli sepraies parent and child on the auction block which 6huts the gates ol knowledge, and winch snatclus lrum the weak all the hard earned fiuits of their toil; an institution which upholds an aristocracy foundi d on the humiliation of labor: an insliiu inn that has violated the compromise of 1820, by which uie lerruory oi ruinsns was conse crated to free labor forever, an institution that u the bane of our social condition, that has arrayed the South against the North and exposed us to danger from abroad; an institution that has no Kyinnnthv with De mocracy, bu' secures to the slaveholder do litical power, making one hundred slaves equal to sixty Iree white mei: un instilu lion that i xhausts the soil, and that mois- ii ns it wi h blood and tears, and alwHV wants lo spread itself over new domain; nn institution that regard disunion as amonu the means of defense, and not always the ast to be resorted to; an instuu ion that usurped the name of Democracy and ad opted none of its principles; an institution the i xt( nsion ol which lias engaged Con gress and the piople for the Ia-t two years while oilier matleis ol great interest and importance to the g. neral welfare have been almost totally neglected; an institu lion, in short, aiMinst which are arrived the sympathies of the civilized world, and the hopes of our rnce. Mr. Chairman, ii is useless for the Rep-rtstniatives fmin the South, and tlieii echoes from the North, to clamor about ag nation ana secli' naii.-m to charge upon us, the representatives of freedom, the productions of the bitter fruits which grew from the seed of their own planting. L is upon them that the responsibility rests for the present depluiahle condition of things in this country. No sooner had the ex Citement which giew from the enac meni of the coiiipromi.se m nsures of 1850 sub sided, than something must be done to renew it. Ti e Presid. nt of the United Stmes a nvre tool in the hmids of the conspiniiors (I mean no disrespect to his high office) in violation of his oft-iepeal ed pledgis, usingall ihe appliances of power and pHtron.ige, repealed the solemn compact ol 1820, unsolicited by the people and launched us itno a sea ol trouble from which the wise-t pi ots in the land have not yet discovered the mi ans of escape. Ua', Mr. Chairman, it teaches us an important lesson, v'z: that little men are dan- gi rous in high pl.c s! It was hoped tint evtiyihing wouhl soon be moving on qui etiy, "keeping step to the music ol the Union," when they, fearing it was enly when a tempest raged that they could t ide into p iwer, sought for some new device to af-foid them the means of gratifying their grasping designs and exti nding the institution of slavery. Suddenly a new light burst upon them. The Missouri compromise, which had existed for thirty-lour years, the consideration, for which had been fully paid the South, but for which the Nonh had realized nothing; wi.ich had by the action of the s tme men been indors ed by the embodiment of the priociplis of ii in tne resoiu ions annex ng ivxas to the United States, and which they also had en deavorcd lo extend to the Pacifio ocean; this sacied measure, ihus so often and so emphatically indoised by them, presented itseli lo tin ir morbid minds as the raaleii-al for agitation. Unconstitutional it was immidiately proclaimed by the Little Giant from Illinois, who, with his eye upon the Presidency, eared not what consequen-cis was involved in manufacturing noto riety which would give him claims to the supporter the South. His unholy ambition thus made him the tool of that section to introduce slavery into this Territory, consecrated by that compromise to fn e-dom, and bioughtforth Uie measure which destroed that lime honored olive branch. And how was it passed, sir? In the Sin- ate, where slavery holds the iron rod over the heads of its menials, it passed not with out earnest and bitter remonstrance, but at least in conformity with strict parliamentary order. In this body, all rules of order were violated by a northern doughface who sat in that ci air presiding over the Committee of the Whole, and who coolly made decisions to hasten the consummation of the iniquity. And,' sir, this measure pass ed. ' The Missouri compromise was murdered at the hour of midnight. The guns of the pro-slaeryiies rejoiced at the foul wors, ana Doomed lorth Horn this rnnital their peals, which, resounding In tbe North told its people that slaver had again triumphed. Campbell tells us that"Fr--dom shrieked when Kosciusko fell.", So, sir, did freedom shriek when the Kansas Nebraska inlquitjf Was passed, and the cry went forth that more, free .territory Vad been prostituted to slavery.' And yet Mr, Chairman, the men who committed this outrage clamor about agituiionl 1 told them, with my humble voice, when they were marching their forces to deBtroy the Missouri compromise, whut the result would be. It was not necessary to be a prophet, or a son ol a prophet, to foresee what was coming, How truuil'ully have the general anticipations been realized! charge us with agitation, sir! The people will hold jour misnamed Democratic party responsible for it. When they elevated your nominee, Franklin Pierce, lo the Presidency, the condition of ihu bond that secured his election was, that there should be no more agitation. Everything then was in a happy condition. The waters, which for some years had buen ruffled hy the storm of strife and txci ement, had nearly been allaytd, and it seemed as if the heyday of our national existence w.is fast approaehing. Franklin Pierce was in augurated. Ileitnnn di lely began setting Ins wires lor the succession. 1 oli ic-.J trickery was substituted for exulted statesmanship, A ki chen cabinet, constituting a power behind the throne greater than the throne itself, was established. With a view to divert attention from domestic misrule, foreign wars were lightly threatened. Weak nations were bullied. Gieytown was destroyed. Ali the little tricks which the genius of the mere politician could devise, weie concocted to promote the chances of ihe Executive for re-election. When the pinch came, in the issue with foreign nations, the white feather was shown. The Nebraska iniquity was concocted with the very assent and connivance of the Administration. Franklin Pierce bent the pliant hinges of his knee to the slave power, ihat thrift might follow fawning. The bill having passed and received his signature, it was still necessary to consummate the iniquity Freedom's voice niusi be stilled in the selection of officers of the new Teni ory. It was found that they had been mistaken in Rei der and others of the appointees; tiny would not become in ali respects the suppliant tools of slavery. PreUx s fur tlnir lvniot al were natciieu up ana earned out.I'ro-sUverj-iles were appoint! d to succeed them. Armtd Missourians controlled ihe ballot- boxes in the Territory. The President winks at it, to plea-e the South. He sends in a Pro Slavery annual message to Con gress before this House was organized Jo receive it, for no other purpose than to pro duce an fleet upon some elections for delegates to the Cincinnati Convention, in certain southern States in which elections were just then about being held. Shortly nftir sends in another message to tickle the South, libeling the anti-slavery settlers in Kansas. He sends the military Ibices of the Government to Kansas, and lo enforce the execution of the so-called laws of Kan sas, making eveiy man kneel lo the be hests ol slavery. Ar.ests lor treason free- State men of Kansas who Imd done no more than initiate a State oii'iinizaLion, to be put into operation when the state should be admitted, recogi izing freedom. Per mits the corrupt judges of the United States courts in Kansas to remain in oflice, who smile at the murder ot anli-slaverv re-iueiii , anu wno oppress, Dy me power of the courts, every son of freedom ou thai oil. fathers are murdered, and their children and wives left oiphans and widows. The soil of the Terihory is drenched with blood thus ruthlessly shed. The bones of'the victims lie bleaching on the plains, as an evidence of how men engaged in a peaceful battle lor freedom are wade victims to the insatiable appetites of (he propagandists of slavery. The advucati s of ireedoni are murdered for ihe exercise of he right ol speech. The freedom of the pr. ss, guarantied by the Constitution, is ubverttd, and the contents of the pinn ing offices tin own by ruthless mobs into ihe rivers; its conductors rode on rails; ministers of the Gospel laired and fealh red; lawyirs, and other professional men of the IKe-Siaie parly, forced lo flee the 1 erntory lor their lives. An olllcer of the Kansas committee, clothed with the digni ty of the House, arrested, and only given up at the pleasure of tho pro-slavery partisans. Armed bodies of Missouri invaders pri venting the peacelul settlement ol tree-SUte emigianison tie lands. Test oaths, requiring obedience to unconstitutional laws, and forcing men to perjure their consciences, presciibed as necessary lor tin ir prottcion against all the perils incident to a home in a new country. The citizens of a neighboring State controlling affairs i it Kansas, and arresting such ol the free-Stale men as ihey choose on their going into or leaving the territory. And, bnahy, robbing the mails, and violating private correspondence. It is for these crimes that we arraign Franklin Pierce, and his accessories belore and after the facts, belore that a gust tribunal which holds its sittings in fiovetuber.and from which ther. is, uappiiy, no app.al. We shall prove tliese citmes against you; judgment will be pronounced, and txeedtion will follow. From this position you need not hope to escape. Your graves will be yet dug before ihe breath leaves your bod its. Mr. Chairman, the South is continually commanding us not lo ngitaio. It makes slave State alter slave Stale, and when ihe North piotests, ii cries oui, ' Do not agi late 1" It made, by a single act, oversixty-eight thousand square miles ( Florida) ot slave territory a Stale. At another, it mado three hundred i.nd tweniy live thousand square miles (Texas) ol slave territory a Stale, Thu North murmurs ; aain the SoU'b cries, "Do not agitate I" Again and again bus the North yielded. At last, gaining assurance from the frequent con-cessions of the North, the Missouri compromise is blotted out. The North protests solemnly and earnestly. Tbe South again cries out, "Do not agitate V The blood of our brethern cries to us from the ground ; still the South cilei, "Do not agi-tii I'.' I tell you, Mr. Chairman! tbe time for silence and submission has passed by. "Are we to lie supinely on our backs, and bug the deluive phantom of bopeuulil our enemies (ihe, slave power) shall have bound iu hand and fool 11' o tir, we will compromise is in fact or in effect restored You cannot put us to sleep that you may rob us of our rights. The lime when it 'were possible to do it has passed by. Mr. Chairman, let us see what has been the effect of the repeal of the Missouri compromise. I have already stated it in general terms : let us come to the fuels in detail. The Kansas and Nebraska bill passed. Immediately that Territory, which had up to lli-it time been as placid as the ocean in n culm, became as turbulent as tho waters when agitated by a mighty storm. The people were to meet peacefully at the polls, and by that mighty instrument the ballot the purity and integrity of which were the only shield to protect them elect their local Legislature, and such other officers as were left to their choice by the or-ganical law. The election takes place. Was ii a fair contest between cmifliciin opinions ? Did the bun t fide voters alone exercise suffrage in that Territoiy ? A few extracts liom the report of the select committee, on the part ot this Hous, which went to Kansas, will be sufficient in itseli to answer that question. TO BE CONTINUED. Another Fierce Elector on the Stump for Fremont. The Hon. Joseph Knox, of Illinois, a Pierce elector in 1852 always a Demo-ciat addressed a Fremont meeting at Hick Inland, and came out 11 u-looted for the Pathfinder. A Iriend who had known him in Worcester, Mass., doub ed the sentiment, and wrote lo Mr Knox lo inquire if tho papers told the truth concerning him. He received the following reply: Rock Island, July 7, 1856. Dear Sir: Yes, t am ihe veritable Jo Knox from Worcester county, Mass., to which you and the Atlas allude. 1 wi h only to correct one statement of the Atlas, which is that I was a "fierce elector iu 1852." For the preservation i my own and my children s renuta ion. I wish it understood that. I cast that vo e for Pierce's Democratic Platform not for Pierce, the duughfneed traitor to his party, who, to secure Southi rn Slavery votes, ' (which, thank God, he did not secure.) became a Northern forysxa Arnold in the army of freemen. On Friday last, (July 4th,) at Princeton, in our State, 1 addressed, for 2 hours, n meeting of at least ten thousand, whose cheers for Fremont and freedom rocked the great grove in which they were assembled. This mighty West is now trembling un-dr the tread of countless hosts of determined mm, and next November will give j ou the pmud results of their battle for freedom's lights, Ever and truly your friend.

Editor Blade: A copy of the enclosed article was sent to the Velta Press with a request to have it published in that paper, but tho "Press" being a neutral paper iis Editor did not fi el at liberty to publish it. I now send it to you for publication, in order that my reasons may be known for declining to havo my name further used as a candidate for Congress, (although I had previously assented,) and my jus'ifi-cation for separating from many of my political friends with whom 1 havo long acted and for whom I enteriain the highest re gard. But preferring the approval of my own conscience lo any other consideration, I am forced into the position I now assume, a position, which I believe to he consistent with Jell', rsoitinn Demncrnlio principles and antecedents of ihe Democratic party. I cannot support any parly whose organization I nm satisfied is used lo aid the extension of Slavery into Free Territory. The artilce for the "Delta Press" was written in great haste, in order lo have it published in time to relieve my friends from any embarrassment in the choice of delegates to the Democratic Congressional Convention. Being out of the State, circumstances beyond my control delated its publication. James Mters. For the Delia Press. Saratooa Springs, July Dili, 1850. Sonale passes it with Guyer's and Adnm'f amendments which abandon and override the principle of popular sovereignty, and contrary to ull former precedent in the government of Territoiies, deprive all foreign-ers who have declared iheir intention to become citizens from voting, although the organic aot organizing the Territory secures the foreigners the riht. This bill however is made to appear plausible upon its face, but wlnn closely examined in canmction with the circum stances, its design is apparent, though it even at this late day nullili s a portion of the Border Ruffian Legislature, tho attempted enforcement of which has caused all the an irchy and blood shed in the Ter-litory. Thu passage of this bill would make Kansas a Slave Slate beyond all question. This the Pro Slavery men well know. It provides that al an election lo be held in November n xf, for the election of members to a Convention to form a State Constitution, no one shall vole unless he "shall have been on inhbitant of tho Ter-litory on ihe 4di of July, 185G," except those who shall have absented themselves in consequence of the disturbances therein, and who shall return before the first day ui uciouer nexi, anu prove lo uie satistac-lion of the Government Commissioners that they h ft in consequence of the disturbances.

It appears to have served the pu'pose ot those who used it as their justification for the repeal of the Missouri Compromise Under the pietenee of carrying out its principle, ihe U. S. troops were allowed lo disarm the Free Stale men, and the Border Ruffians permitted to drive them ou: of ihe Territory, destroy their prcsse,bum their houses, steal their property, murder and imprison their lenders; and now when all the practicable avtnues into Kansas are guarded bv Missourians to prevent the entrance of Free State men into the. Territory, and after Atchison, Siringfellow & Co., havo got - everything prepared to have a majority of pro-Slavery men in Kansas.op the 4th day of July, Mr. Toombs, an ultra pro-slavery Senator (who boasted upon the floor of tho Senate, that he would vet call the roll of his slaves at the foot of Bunker Hill monument) introduces a bill Into the Senaie. Mr. Douglas adopts it, and Ihe your opinion on its merit ; Hurrah for old Jim Buchanan I We will aid our fnithfiil Shnnnon To crush out Aliolit ion Iree soil,-And everything Unit makes ti broil. Freedom of poeth , we understand, Isn't for lliu nbolii ion band, But lor the t rue d.-nmcraey, Who'll not let the ui'er go frw Inalia mble rights we mny maintain, And keep the darkey in his chain, For Jefferson meant only whites, Who pofcsttssc'd inalienable rights. There, if that won't do to sing at our meetings, there can't be anything got up ihat will do, for I have tried it every way and it is the best that can be did. The boys, big and IKtle, are begln-nin to holler in ths streets for Fremont nnd Dayton, and are gellin up poles and flags eightet n forty fashion. Their parents should either keep tin m al home, or luain them enough of manners to keep Iheir mouihs shut so that tiiey wont deslurb honest people. And tho women, too, blast their Black Republican picters are gellin up what they call Freedom and Fremont flags to encourage the rebels agin Buchanan and the Diinocratio party. They ought to be in better bizness. They ihinl cause old Buck's got no wife, he's nobody; but its mistake, Bill. He would a had a wifo a mighty while ago, if he could a found one good enough for him Ihat didn't belong to somebody else. He'a called a filibuster, but he aiat.fillibaster enbngh to steat, rob and ruli awsy for sake of ft wifo, as Fremont did. Bill, I tell you what it's a fact, disguise it as we will, the signs of the timet ire squally and calculated to hurt an old Liner's feelings. I suppose you noticed Sen ator Hamlin's reasons for not acting with our party any longer. Why he talks about right and wrong, justice and conscience nnd all that sort of thing, jiat like a Black Republican. And Lieut. Gov. Myers tool talks for all tho world like a Black Republican, or rirgcr worshiper. Why he talks about Kansas, border ruffianism, the Slave power, an approving conscience, Sea., jis,l as if ho had never been a dimocrat. It strikes me he has acted long enough with our party to havo got rid of an "approv ing conscience," and all such Black Republican clap trap. I cant.Bi l.for the life of me, see what use a politician has for a conscience ; it's only a trouble and nd profit. It nviy do well enough for Preachers, Abolitionists nnd tho like to have d conscic.ee, but what right has a Simcn Pure Dimocrat to talk or trouble himself about conscience? The duty of every g.)od dimocrat is to stand up to Ihe platform nnd the party, conscience or no conscience; and m belief is that in case of a hard knotty platform, the dimocrat whst'e got no conscience is an all-fired sight bet-' er off than the one who has one. What has the parly to do with Kansas, conscience, and religion? The dimocratio party has got to take care of itself and the spoils; nnd the troubles in Kansas, conscience nnd such pious matters ought to take care of themselves the best Way ihef can. I tell you what it is, Bill, conscience and religion is doing oflfr party a heap of dam age. These things, or &t least a little of them, may be wel enough in their propel place and time, but they ought to have nothing to do with the great contest now agoing on between the dimocratic pnrty and the Black Republicans. If you see any of ihe members of our party tending all the religious ra etings especially prayer meetings, in his neighborhood, you may at once suspicion his dimocracy. I tell you such a man is most likely rotten at heart. No true blue dimocrat ever took to rwligion nateral, and tome, aSam-singing dimociat, especially in an exciting lime like this, is a very suspicious character. We all know well enough that nearly ihe whole S.im-stnging clan of the clergy, aie either secretly or openly for Fremont and the Black Republicans ; and the old Saw "Like Priest, like people" will apply; well in this case. Our parly has about at little to expect from tho Sam-6i'nging people as the whining, canting, sam-singing priests. Whenever one of our party be-ginsto talk of conscience, moral obligation, natural rights and such Black Repub lican clap traps, betier turn him out of the party at once, for depend on it, Bill, he won't stay in it long at all events. The infernal Dutch in this part of the country have all turned agin us, and I'm ' old it's just So all over the country. I wish they were in Holland, or some worse place, for ihe whole jibbering tiibe of them will now be a dead loss to our party. The whole of the Free-Soilers, all the Anti- Slavery Whigs, and a great part of the old dimocrats are agin ua in this campignj , and now that the Dutch are gon, I'm a-feard Bill, it will go hard with the Dlmoo- racy, liut if rrement beats Buchanan, there's one consideration left we kin dis solve the Union, Fillmore's for it, a gobd deal of the South is for It, shd if our par-' ty will jine in, we kin dissolve the wko! ' concern.
