Thompson, the best stump : speaker in this State, has for some time been advocating the claims of Millard Fillmore, and rendering effective service to the American party. His motives for this course have been basely belied by at least one paper in this State, which lately changed from a Fillmore to a Fremont paper. This paper charged that Col. Thompson had joined the Fillmore party, "and was now fighting its battle, with the object of preventing any union between the American and Republican parties to elect the People's State Ticket, or to create a division where all is now unity, and by thus dividing the votes in the counties, to return to the Legislature a majority of Democratic Representatives, who would thus be enabled to reelect Bright to the Senate, and elect Wright to the same office and that these gentleman were pledged in this contingency to procure the passage through the Senate of a bill for the relief of Col. R. W. Thompson, on account of some old Indian claims. That is, that Col. Thompson had made a regular bargain with Bright and Wright, in which he on his part was to advocate the cause of Fillmore, and use every influence in his power to secure a Dem ocratic majority in our Legislature, and thus obtain the election of Bright and Wright to the U. S. Senate, while they, as their part of the contract, were to reward him by securing the passage of a bill for his relief, through the U. S. Senate, to the extent of his old and well .. established claim, some forty thousand dollars This was a 6erious charge too serious to be made on any idle rumor yet made with as much earnestness and assurance of correctness , as though backed by a dozen respectable persons who had been witnesses to such a contract It has been copied 4in almost every Fremont paper in the State, and stigmatized as a regular bargain and sale of the American party. Indeed, the paper which made the charge, offered it as one reason why it had de- ' erted the Fillmore colors it would be a par ty to no such fraud as this. Now it is a singular fact, that a mere tele graph dispatcn oi six lines renues mis cnarge . in its whole leno-th and breadth. A couple days ago we published the following dispatch in the regular Congressional proceedings: Washington, Aug. 9. Senate. The Senate passed several private .bills and discussed for nearly five hours and . adopted the report of the Committee on Indian Affairs. No further legislation is necessary to enable R. W. Thompson to receive 42,000 for services rendered the Menonomee Indians. Thus it appears the bill for the relief of Col. Thompson has been passed, and just as he and his friends anticipated it must do this session. He had no possible motive-for buying up Bright and Wright He never anticipated for a moment that his petition would lie a subject for the legislation of next Congress. No further legislation is necessary to enable him. to rev:- : i. ..

Will the Vincennes Gazette and other Fremont papers please call attention to this dispatch and renderjustice to ' CoL Thompson? If they cannot advocate Fillmore's claims with perfect ease to 'their cwn delicate consciences, will they be so candid as to admit that CoL Thompson and some ' cf those acting with him may possibly be governed by honest motives? Mubdeb ab Pobtsmouth, Ohio. On Wednesday veaing, 6th inst., at Portsmouth, O., a lad named Hiram Pool, aged sixteen years, was instantly killed by James Teague, aged nineteen years. Pool was cut in the neck with a bowie knife, and died instantly. Teagme was arrested next day at Springfield, Kj., and taken before the Mayor of Portsmouth for examinationFillmore and Donelson Pole-Raising. AI Sellersburg, Indiana, on Thursday last, the friends of Fillmore and Donelson erected a tall pole from which floats in gallant folds the flag of the Union. After the pole-raising, sixty names were enrolled as members of tlie Fillmore and Donelson club in that neighborhood. 03r W. D. Porter, in the New York Herald, points out a new way to discover murderers, .lie says : The following method will, in many cases, detect Ue rpetrators of a murder.

What he gc the purple-rabk

What he got for endorsing Buchanan. e American, via A.ine paper oi rabid hue, has the following a the head of its paper : COL. BENTON'S OPINION OF MB. BUCHANAN. I Extract from bis letter accepting the nomination for Governor of Missouri. The nomination of Mb. Buchanan fob the Presidency determines my course in relation to the Governorship, , I CONSID-. eb him the SAFEST CHANCE formeservinq thepeaceof the country, now endangered at home and abroad: and believinq him to be the best chance fob peace, I hold it to be the duty of those who are in favob of that object TO ASSIST IN HIS ELECTION. I SHALL DO SO. Your fellow citizen, 9 THOMAS H. BENTON. Cincinnati, Ohio, June 7, 1856. This ought certainly to make Benton a first ; i-t v 4 t - racy do not appear to set as much value upon him for this opinion as the editor of the Amer ican does. He has just been badly beaten for Governor of Missouri, the opposition Demo cratic candidate and the Atnerican candidate running far ahead of him. Probably this is all owing to Benton's endorsement of Buchan an. Mr. Platform Speaks for Mr. Buchanan. When the Keystone State Club called upon Mr. Buchanan, a day or two after his nomination, he said : Gentlemen : Two weeks since I should have made you a longer speech, but now I have been placed upon a platform of which I MOST HEARTILY APPROVE, AND THAT CAN SPEAK FOR ME. Being the representative of the great Democratic party, and not simply James Buchanan, I must square my conduct according to the platform of that party, and insert no new plank, nor take one from it. That platform is sufficient ly broad and national for the whole Democratic party. Well, then, let us hear what Mr. Platform saj'S, since he is the spokesman. Hear ! hear! Resolved, That the Administration of FRANKLIN PIEUCE has been true to Democratic principles, and therefore true to the great interests of the country ; in the face of violent opposition he has maintained the laws at home, and thereby we proclaim OCT" OUR UNQUALIFIED ADMIRATION OF HIS MEASURES AND POLICY. f)Mr. Willard having denied that he made the statement which we published some liUle time ago, relative to giving up the State for the Democracy, the gentleman Vho first published the charge that he had made this confession, again appears in the State Journal, reaffirms his position, and says the truth of it can be maintained by two gentlemen of Sullivan county. These make five witnesses, the testimony of any one of whom is quite as reliable as Willard's, who declare thnt Willard said the State was irrevocably lost to the Democracy, and he should not spend another dollar of his own in canvassing it. Mr. Stevens thus remarks in his communication: But it is said to be very strange that a man of Willard's judgment should make such concessions. Siron. minded men do a great many silly things when they get too much whisky or brandy aboard; and a gentleman of truth and sobriety who, for ten years, has known Mr. W. personally, intimately has known him well told me that his usually rum-radiant countenance had never, during the long period of his acquaintance with him, worn a brighter bloom than on that day, 15th July. This will suggest the propriety of his walking between two men most of the time he was in the State House yard, and of their locking into his arms, as they frequently did. fj5A Boston Republican paper is boasting that the life of Fremont, just issued, has a larger sale than the life of Fillmore. We are not surprised. There is an anxious desire among the people to find out tlie something in Fremont's life which fits hiin for the Presidency of the United States. Fillmore and his life are "household words." The people are strangers to Fremont, and are naturally desirous to learn from his Biography what manner of man he is, who like Pierce, sprang into greatness in &n hour by the nod of a political convention. Under these circumstances Fremont's life is no doubt having a greater sale than would a new edition of the life of Henry Clay or George Washington. hie Loi.obed rorcLATiox. A meeting of the "colored population" of Brooklyn, N. Y, was held on Tuesday evening last to "organize a club and adopt such measures as will be most practical in the present campaign." Sundry resolutions were adopted, and among them one declaring that "We recognize the Kepublicaa platform as nearest truth and right, and regard in the nomination of Col. Fremont, the embodiment of Xorttern sentiment against Southern impudence and oppressioa aad lend to him our hearty guod will pledging him (as we are permitted) to exercise Cor ourselves the riirht

The Senate took up and passed the joint resolution authorizing Professor Bache, of the Coat Surrey, to accept a medal presented him by the King of Sweden. Mr. Hunter reoorted a substitute for the bill regulating the compensation of members of Consress. eivin. them 2.500 instead of $3,000 a year, with a section providing that if any books be distributed amons the members by a resolution of either or both the Houses, the price given for the same shall be deducted from the annual compensation, provided that this shall not extend to books ordered to be printed during the Congress for which the respective members shall have been elected. Mr. ( Thomson, of New Jersey, made a! speech to show that to Commodore Stockton, and not to Colonel Fremont, was the honor J due claimed by the hatter's friends, of being the conqueror of California. Mr. Jones, of Tennessee, examined the platr e 1. i.- ; u t i i- i form of the parties now in the Presidential tW. of th Domoomtic party. IIe: declared that he should support

Buchanan, believing that the safety of the:vitle, ills., lor fcouu casn. . iney intenu to

Mr. Biir sr submitted a resolution that lies ! over calling upon the President for copies of the vouchers on which iremont's accounts as an officer of the Government, from his first expedition, were settled, so that the nature of the disbursements may appear : innuirinr also whether there is any public money in his

of the wrongs of Kansas, maintaining that the repeal ot the iUissoun Lompiomisc was the cause ot the present excitement throughout the country, threatening the perpetuity of the Republic. The primary purpose and chief limits of the abrogation were to fasten slavery on Kansas, either peaceably or forcibty. He spoke of Squatter Sovereignty as a Üeeting phantom now abandoned by its original friends, and of the subjugation of the people of Kansas by invaders and usurpers. Adjourned. , House. On motion of Mr. King a resolution was adopted requesting the Postmaster General to make special and vigilant inquiry as to the places where and persons who have unlawfully abstracted or detained from Washington, l-ooks and public documents distributed by members of Congress. The House resumed consideration of the bill making appropriations for Lighthouses, Coast and Land Surveys, Custom Houses, Marine Hospitals, &c., and passed it Among the items in it are appropriations for the Postoffice, Court and Custom Houses in Philadelphia ; six Revenue Cutters on the lakes ; $75,tXJO for the purchase of cuttings of seeds for distribution through the Patent Oflice, and provides that after November 15th, the military superintendence of public buildings be abolished. The vote was 93 against 30. Mr. Sherman, using a question of privilege, called attention to the fact that Mr. Savage ha 1 in a speech characterized the report of the Committee on Kansas affairs a compound of gross partiality, misrepresentation and perver sion of the truth, put forth with impudence and unblushing falsehoods. All Sherman had to say was, that the language was a violation of the rules of the House, a breach of that parliamentary decorum and courtesy which should prevail among gentlemen, and not true. Various bills were passed, when the House took a recess for a general debate. - Land Claims. House of Representatives, July 20, 1856.
