HORRIBLE." A singular typographical error occur-ed in our Issue of Saturday. la noticing the unanimous re election of Messrs. Brook and Keitt, we intetid cd to head the articlo 'honorable vindication " in ctead of kornblt, as U was misprinted. By some Inadvertence the proof of this article did not pass under our observation.

' THE MASS MEETING The ma.e meeting in Guilford is spoken of by the Herald as a very grand affair. , . LOUISIANA. I At a late whig meeting of the Whig Party, held at Ouachita, Louisiana,' tho following resolution was unanimously adopted : ' Resolved, That our tirst choice a tnoi g t-e Pres f iJt-nlial candidates now bt fore the country is Mil liard Fillmore ; bnt if the Convention at Louis ville fully and fairly represents '.the Whigs of the Union, and in their opinion it shall bo necessary presenting any national party, we will cordially support such candidate. - We belie re the above Resolution expresses the .sentiments of the old line Whigs throughout the ubitw. - if t; n o e au lu oriut iti: lu.il liktv uhvc- left an " own door " fur the introduction or cor- rect action in view of the perilous condition of the country. They will, doubtless, be convinced, before the election comes on, that unity on Bu chanan and Brlckenbidce can alone save the Union from destruction.. I CALIFORNIA. j We, a few days ago, pullihed an acconni of the doings in California. The same account is again published with further illustrations. It is difficult to arrive at the truth amidst the con flicting statements of the parties but at all event", we think it is high time that the " Committee ' surrendered the government to the regularly con stituted authorities. I Several years ago we expressed the opinion that California would " ai t up for herself " before a great while; b,ut we should not think the at tempt would be thus early made, though there is somewhat an appearance of such a move. Per haps the present distracted state or the country Is calculated upon as an auspicious moment to seize the reigns of empire; but we believe the Federal Government will make all right. I NEW YORK DEMOCRACY. I The meeting of the united Democracy of New York, held at Syracuse last week, was marked by a very harmonious spirit. State officers and Elec tors were nominated composed of due portions of the late division. Tins duty completed, the Con vention in their enthusiasm directed their chair man to telegraph to Messis. Buchanan and Breck enridge informing them that the Democracy of New York had united and nominated a State Ticket, and declaring their iutentiou to carry the State in the fall. j Shortly after the adjournment of the Conven tion a response from Mr. Buchanan to the mes sage sent him was received, as follows : I "Mr. Buchanan has received (he resolution of the Con solidated Convention of the New York Democra cy. Their union at this eventful crisis is one of tire grandest events in our history. Our car will now weatlier the storm of fanaticism ; and the Union must and shall be preserved. The whole Southern country will hail this, reunion a a rain bow fn the cloud, promising a return of the pea'e and harmony which prevailed in the good old time among the sister States." This good news will cheer the southern portion of the Constitutional Democracy, and be a sort of hint to our neighbors who brag so much about "New York and Millard Fillmore." -I j THE TRUTH IN A NUT SHELL. The following is the concluding paragraph of the Speech of Senator Reio, on the bill reiorted from the Committee oo Territories, on the 2d of Ju ly last. A vol o mo could not more clearly dis play the troth or define the position of parties, than do these few words : Mr. PMident, I ak the Senator from Mas-a-chusetts whether, after his avowal tb.a, if Kan sas adopts a constitution tolerating slavery, he and his people will not admit Kaunas into the Union because she is a slave State, he can ask a southern man to come up here and vote for the admission of free States, as he will not vote for tbe admission of slave States 1 Wilt be; In re gard to Nebraska, require me to vote for such a government as the people of that Territory mav adopt, when he will not vote for the admission of Kansas with such s government as a majority of the people there may adopt 1 If he desires to carry out this government k that spirit, does he expect that the southern people will submit to it! I put it to bim as a candid man, could he ask' them' to do it t Will he with impunity violate j and trample under foot the Coiu.titu.uon of his 1 country, and then couie up and k dm to abide by it afterwards 1 . A hopeful rhy roster thus discourses of his lady love, and a dog of ber'u. He is jealous: ' When Peggy's arms her dog imprison, , I often wished my lot waa his'h ; How oft would I stand and turn, Ajid get a pat from bands like ber'n. . , . . $ A'LONQ DAY'S WORK. -, ; ' The Greensboro Patriot arges lt friends not" to cease their' exertions -until Jobs' Adams Gil mer la Governor'of North CeriJna.wJ, This Is, a severe task a ad may be considered a life engage ment.

To bis Excellency Hf.mrt J.

We, are, very respectfully, your obedient serv ants, WILLIAM J. EAMES, MOSES G. COBB, Aud others, committee. Executive Department, Cocncii. Chamber.' Boston, July 28, 1858 Gknti.emev : I accept the iK'mination of the American Slate Convention, held in Faneu.l Hall otr the 24th instant, for re-election to the office I now hold. Were I to have followed my own preference I should have withdraw my name from the can vass ; hut the uriient solicitations of fi iends f. 0111 all sections of the Stale, and assurances that such a course would be both ungrateful to those who have hitherto so generously supported me and prejudicial to the interests of Aiuericanisns have constrained me from adopting it. I cannot close my reply without adding that I stand unreservedly upon the S liugflVId platform ; that I c rdially embrace the cardinal principles hich underlie the American movement, so clear ly expressed in that platform, aa well as those other sentiments of hostility to the extension of slavery upon which the opinion of the Americans of Massachusetts was rendered necessary, by the unwise action of the National American Council regarding the violation of a life Ions covenant he tweeti the North and the South, and the attempt to force human servitude over territory dedicated forever to freedom. Entertaining these views, I am now at liberty to say what I could not say before, without being liable to the imputation that I did so to influence t! e action of your Convention as regards myself; and . that is, that in entire loyalty to American principles and the American patty, and in oliedi ence to its declared preferei ce, I shall uive ex pression t those convictions in my vote foi na tional candidates'. I do so with the greater frank ness that my fellow-citizens may cast their suffr ages with a full knowledge as to my sentiment. Believing that both the main ideas of the Springfield platform would lie recognised in the administration of Col. Fremont, and that both Mould lie inflexibly opposed by that of Mr. Buch anan, and the contest being in my judgment sole ly between these two gentlemen, 1 shall support the former. Thanking the Convention for the renewed mark of confidence evinced by this nomination, and, as suring them, if elected, my official action for the nast two years shall be'a faithf ul index of the future. I am, very respectfully, your obedient servant, HENRY J. GARDNER. To Wat. J. Eames. Esq., and other Gentlemen of the Committee. THE CORPS. The annexed letter from a friend, to the Colum bia Carolinian, written at Greenville, S. C, July 30, gives a sad account of the growing crops and the misfortunes wltidh have befallen the planting interests throughout the country : "Mr. Editor : This has been an eventful sea son so far, one long to be remembered. At first the weather was very cold, and we were almost 'landlocked' for nearly three months, with hail, rain, snow, sleet and ice. Then a dry spell, and after that a heavy washing rain; again a dry hot spell, and then the rain, when the water fell four-. teen inches deep on the whole ground, over a large scoe of country, pouring down in cataracts aud washing off fences, mill-dams and bridges, caus n utter destruction to crops on the low grounds, a d doing considerable injury u the rail roads. Now we have the army worm-, which baa made its appearance in vast numbers, destroying vege t.ftiiHi in a most summary manner, leaving luxu riant grass patches as bare as a yard. "I travelled several miles aloes the valley of the Broad River, and raw signs of ruin and des truction all the way. Fields of corn are- fast dis appearing before the little greedy monsters, and they bave commenced on the cotton in some places,, How long this' worm may 'continue its ravages, or what the result may be is unknown. "The prospects are certainly very gloomy at this time, as the worm may ba the instrument of greater destruction and cause more distress than the freshet, from the tact of ita ravages being more general, consuming alike the food of man and beast on the ridga, aa well as the remnant which escajK-d the freshet in the valliea. Fortu nately tb-y cannot eat .ipthe rail roads, which may transport -us supplies from some Eypt of plenty. "The clopa are suffering very much from drought in this vicinity at present. Some refreshing show ers might stay the band of destruction by the worms." "A powetfol appeal la made oy the law end or der party of Kansas territory to Itwir friend a ia the South, and to Ibe law-abiding "people of the Union. The voice of the country and the aid of the government is needed in behalf of these peo ple, among whom the Black Republicans bave se cret military organizations for carrying out tbeir Abolition dtxugns upon Kansas, Wo bave space only for au extract from this docament ; but we place enough before our resders to satisfy them of the deep wrong the South is ufieiing4brogtf i heir friends in the new territory. . It ia abundantly proved by eye-witnesses of uih questioned veracity, that, at this preseut time, they have at diQeieut points in the Territory .banded together in actual encampment large numbers of armed men, subsisted aud kept toget her by tueir aid societies lor no other object than to make forays upon the country and drive our friends from their Homes. By such banditti the murders near Ossawattamie, on Pottawattamie creek, were committed. Declaratio a by the per petrators cotemporsueous with their foul deeds indubitably show the parentage of these crimes ; six victims, whose bodies have been found, fell in that massacre, beside four others miasiug from the neighborhood, and not yellieard from. Of the six, om was Allen Wilkiusou-Esq., a member of the Territorial Legislature and Post Master at Shermaiiville ; sick with the measles, for no oth er offence save that .of being a law and order ni.-in, he waa dragged arniidmglit from, his bed, and from the side of a sick aud imploring wife, by a band of Abolition assassins, acting as they said in the name of the great Northern army ; within hearing of the terror-atneken wire, with fiendish barbarity, he was flayed afire, his nose atnd ears were cut off, bis scalp form his head, and then he was stabbed through the heart. . Such is the sworn evidence of his widow, lately ' tendered hi Westport before the Cougressii nal Investigating Committee, . It revealed, on the part of their friends, such a picture of savage ferocity, that that Committee for once blushed, and even stulti fied tbcujMdves, rather than receive the testimony aa competent. . They bad. already received and recorded the evidence of Pardee Butler, testify ing that since their appointment as Commission ers, he had been tarred and feathered for heiiro stealing; but this decision they uublushingly re versed, and" erased the evidewes rather than be forced to put against their friends this horrible tale of the Ossawatauiie murder upn the record Besides Wilkinson, Win. bUermati and srother, and. Mr. Doyle aud two eons', were proved to bave been murdered at their respective homes on the same night and by the same baud ; ono ol the Doylea also had bis fingers and arms cut off be fore he was finally despatched. Incredible as tbese things may seem, they unquestionably hap pened in Kansas Territory in the latter jarl of last month; yet what i more incredible, but not leas true, is the undeniable fact that these outrages are not, as some pretend, the mere extravagances of a few irresponsible individuals, but, On the contrary, are justly chargeable to the abolition party, as the legitimate fruit of their party mea sures and party discipline, and as naturally re sulting from th public teacbin s, advice and counsel of tbeir chief men and most distinguished leaders. Tins outrages above specified were preceded, and up to the present time, have been followed by others of a like character and dictated by a like settled policy on the part of our enemies to harass and frighten, by their deeds of horror, our friends from their homes n tiio territory. Un doubtedly thU pi'licy (a well settled party system) has dictated notices lately given in all the disturb ed districts by aiuu.fl marauding bands of aboli tionists, to the law and order men of their resiiec tiv i.eiihlmrhoods, iinim-diafeiy to leave the country on a-ril of death. Under such notices ' ur friends' about UicUory Point, and in Potta wattamie and Rock creeks hve all been driven nut Of the territory, their stores have liven rob bed, their cattle driven off, their hou&es burned, their horses stolen, and in some cssea they have, been assassinated for daring to return ; some too of these outrages have been ierietrated under the very nose of the United States troops, who nil the while assert that all is peace and quietness, and that they will afford ample protection, with out the necessity of our banding together in arm ed bodies tor mutual defence. Among many eth ers ot o-.'.r friends thus driven away, we might pecifv the cases of Messrs. Hargous, Jones, and Owens, ol Hickory Point, whom two hundred Un-i iu d Mates troo stationed within two miles of of their bf'nies. have lieen unable to inspire with a sense ot -curity. Morton Bourn, a most exem plary, quiet and unoffending man of our party, living w ithin eight miles ot Lecomplon, the capital of the teriitory, where quite a number of troops are st, i tinned, was lately driven lrm bis home by a baud of twenty-five armed men, who robbed him of all his guns, five saddles, three horses, the blankets from his beds, aud over fifty dol ars in money. The thieves gave him twenty-four hours to leave with bis family, and threatened to kill him if he ever tetuint d, -sying they intended to serve all the pro-s avery men in th.-neighborhood in the same way. Mr. Bourn is still out of the territory, and though- anxious about his property and desirous to return, yet he dares not do so, al though as often aa he applies, the troops and the governor assure bim that all is quiet, and that he shall have a niphf protect ion ; but be knows that unless they r main constantly 1 out his house they cannot keep marauders and murderers away. This case ia sjiecifi.-d, not for its peculiar enormity or hardships, but because it is a fair type of a large class of such cases, and n cause the under signed bave all the details from Mr. Bourn him self, and knw them to be strictly true ; indeed, one of us assisted bis family in tbeir flight the day after the robbery. A WIFE'S DEVOTION. A passenger on board the ill fated Northern In diana, gives an account of the narrow escape ol Cicero Fowler and wife, of Tully. The Syracuse Journal, says there was but oue life-preserver for Mrs. F. and ber husband; he insisted imperative ly that she should put it on ; she pcremtorily re fused, saying she 'was in poor health and his life was worth far more than hers !' The preserver havii.g no strap, Mrs. F. tore the beni from ber dress, and fastened it to her husband, whom she continued to encourage, saying she could hold ou to him, and if the preserver could not sustain them both, she would be the one to let go aud leave him to save himself. The fire was gettinz hotter and hotter. The water was thick withliuman forms struggling for life; she toro ber bonnet already on fire, from ber head, and Land in band with the one she loved better than herself, took the dangerous leap. As they arose from thu water, Mr. Fowler assisted his wife in procuring a good bold of bim on or a bout the shoulders. She wiptd the water from his mouth and eyes, and encouraged bim to retain is hope of being saved. He continued to strug gle with the waves. Half an hout elapsed aud there were no signs of assistance. His strength was rapidly failing; his wife observing it, tried to cheer bim. Ho said ' be could not stand it any longer; it seemed as though he must give up. At that moment she heard a steamer coming rapidly through the water. She says: "My dear bo lwnd, a few moments more and we are safe. Don't you bear a boat coming V He aaid be djd, and immediately revived made all the rffort in bis power, and stiuggk-d for himself arid heroic wife until the Mississippi eame op and look tbenr, with scores of others ou ber commodious decks.

He has a son,' a very worthy young man, who is equally zealous in the suppost of the Dem ocratic nominees. Neither lias tbe father or son anything to do with the business of quarrying.

The True American, a Black Republican organ in Erie county, Pa., in commenting upon a speech delivered at a Democratic meeting, says : "This twaddle about the ' Union' and iu 'preser vation' la too silly and sickening for any good ef fect. Ir think that the liberty of a single slate is worth more than tit the Unions Goo's universe cam hold !" Here is Black Republicanism, pure and unadnl- berated. Del roi t Free press CONGRESSIONAL. The Ilocac or Rr.FMr.se ntatives on Wednesday last, agreed to redeem the pledge given by ib Coutinetilsl Congress of 1780, which had pro:ui ed half pay for life to such of the officers ia the Cont inental line f the Revoluiiouaiy army an con tinned In ervice to tbe end of tbe war'aod pen sion to tbe widows and orphans of such as "might fal. in the service. Mr. Broom of Pennsylvania chairman of tbe Committee on Revolutionary Claims -some two or three weeks ago. pressed tv a third reading a bill to redeem tbia pledge. 1 was brought up; 'on a motion by Mr. He dy, of Tennessee, to reconsider tbe qui at! a of engnaomenL. The bill waa ably and success All ly supiorted by Mr. Broom, M r.

It is almost identical fn Ita ..revisions with a bill passed by tbe Senate on tin 211 February, 1855, aoder tbe patroaue of Mi. K-aus, of auuih Carolina, and will no doubt agaii. eceive the sanction of that body. In the- catc, on Thursday last, after a brief Executive set ion, tbe consideration of the rivet and harbor appropriatfoa bill was continued and a number of bills were paasaed, generally without much dt bate, but almost invariably under a cat for ibe yeas and nays. Tbe estimates upon wblc tbe bilts are based were in moat instances requir ed, and tbe votes seemed to be recorded not s much in view of the claim of particular cases as in accordance with Ibe eooatnatioaal opinions ot different Senators, .- tt-"' P" The Hoess op aaracsDrranvza. oa Thursday was principally engaged upoo (be con tested elec lion case from tbe Territory of Kansas without arriving to a fiaat decision. ; Oa Friday tbe aeai waa declared, vacant, and a new election will be held. - " TURNING A CHURCH INTO A POLITICAL CLUB ROOM.
