It insists that aho South ia not populous enough thus w enter into competition with the ). in peopling a new territory, and the effort to do so will only weakan her at home, The South, says the Bkmdmrd, "has long been tasked to the accomplishment of inconsixtont objaats. The one has been to expand her material development, build tawas and eiuea, und maintain respeclability in the eyes of tbe world; the waa to march with equal pare vacant territory, and preserve efnalitv within the Union. " While it i eapable of either, it is not, the anXweWg' inya, "competent to both." ahe SUtndard goes further than thai, and exposes another peril which thraateae the South, which has hitherto been carefully concealed fiom pubHe notice. Erery one who has at all etVeted upon the fact we have alroady stated, that the slaveholders aye a very email minority of the free whites in the Southern States, and that the interest of the white aon-slavu-fcfiMev mast be directly against the whole system of slave labor, must ' eaaa that eventually then scnticoincide with their interest, t there will thna nrimr im n ' a -r - vary powojrfal AnnUvery larty in the haart of every slevebolding State. eaaawewr tends to increase the nura ari of dt aoa-slaveholding whites ut the South, of course increases this tenfew, a4 tends to hasten the issue mhlek will eventual be made upon 8oaheni soU.

sentiment of oDDOMtioo to our ioslitu

Hon; without su-h increase there wae, aa we have ehown, no possibility of i auraataaful cnranatition with lht North in both the fields before us; it wa i hard to be defeated of equality in the Union, and be forced to dissolution to preserve the functions of self-government; it was hard to leave our homes and native States the subjects of con temptuoes speculation, and for this It was that, years ago, we took the position that "the want of Slavery was the vSVrtVf-irossV' and we have oartaio ly not seen, sinee, the cause for its abandonment.' The Hiandard holds that th resto mtion of the Xl.iw Tr.t.lr th. only mrans by whloh Slavery can retain the halanef .if political power, ami by which the Union can be preserved. Hear if "We believe that the Union will b aaaotrerie prolonged by the talroducoou oi niaveiy lino ansaa, out we believe it might be eatended to an indefinitely distant period by lha mea uro we propose- the restoration of the Slavw-Tradcl Willi tba certainly or turning the balance of polttloal power, we would bare little motive to a dissolution, while the liability and repose lo the North from the predomi' nance of Slave power in the Government, wuuld counterbalance any in cllnalion thay might have to leave as." It remains to ho seen whether the North will purchase, "stability ami re poso" at such a price. Holland vs Heid We give plaee to another communi cation from Mr. Holland, this week. It is due to the public that the acta of public man should be investigated. We shall not take, any part in the con troversy, as each is able to lake care of himself. Tbn editorials which alluded loJudga Heid'e oourse, three weeks ago, were written and published dur ing our a bee nor. All that wo ask is a candid investigation of the points in dispute, by men of all parlies. All honest men roust deprecate the t lfort of the party pre.su, in tbn distriot, to make the question one of parly, and to acquit or condemn on party iaeac. Our opinion is that a press oi a party that will arouse party prejudices nnd enlist party dupes to sustain a judge in such corruptions and usurpationaas are charged against Judge It., is to or rupt that all honest men must abhor it. Freemen will crush such a party aa dangerous to their liberties. If a Judge may usurp such tyranny and then be shielded from public odium by th-j tactios of party, no man is safe. On the other hand, if any attorney tony assume to have been aggrieved, and then ronke an assault in Court or through the press on an honest Judge in the faithful discharge of his duties, if the machinery of party is to be bro't to bear to sustain such a charge, farewell to the safety of the people. All that we ask of the people in this controversy is to look at the facts, and judge for themselves, unl spurn alike the demagogue who would shield or condemn either by party management. The whole affair occurred in our absence, and we have no means of asoertaing frets that arc not accessible to our readers in the communications which we publish. Thawks. We thank those friends of freedom who have lately interested themselves in the circulation of our paper. We shall endeavor to make it worthy of their confidence and patronage.. And at this time, when free men are resolving to think and act for themselves, And no longer be driven as mere slaves to the support of measures which they abhor, for the sake of pane aspirants, those who intend to resist the encroachment of tl.c oppressor can do no better service than to circulate extensively such papers and documents as will acquaint (hem with the facts of pasmg events. If thi-y can 6nd any better paper than the ImericaM, let them circulate it. Ve want no man to taku our paper who can get a better one. taking all things into the account. We want the cause of truth and liberty to triumph, and we want the friends of human liberty to use all honorable means to accomplish this end. We vonfideutly believe that we ein make IheAmericitu both the cheapest and the best paper for general circulation in this county and in this State. To the citizens of this county it shall be doubly interesting by its constant attention to the interesU of the county. As t Incoming canvass is to be an interesting OwOi because of the new and interesting questions that are before the people, we ask every lover of freedom to put one of our papers in the hands of every man who dares think and act for himself. It will be useless to offer it to a blind partisan. He will follow his leaders wherever they go. To Correspondent. We intend to adhere striotly to our resolution neither to notice, nor allow our correspondents to notice, the dirty trawli that appears in other papers. The circumstances which will justify a departure from this determination must be verypeculiar. It will not bo enough that their replies have- been rejected by the dirty editors who do the dirty work for dirty men. We think we cn serve the cause of truth and righteousness better by pursuing the ourse laid down. Safe Now. The Lafayette Courier tells tbe following; We heard of a conscientious Old Liner the other day, who declared he would not vote for Willard; "for," said he, "if he's eleoted, he'll gamble away the Statu House." After the nomination of Judge Hammond, tinOld Liner aforesaid declared that it was all right now. - for if Willard gambles tbe State Hous away, Hammond will win it back 1"

The Convention

Considering the busv aason of the year, ihr Convention last week was rgely attended, and far more hormonious than the friends of the present administration desired. The only question of dissent was in regard to the preeidenlial question. On the S,i" 'I1" ' " I lb"' St it.- ticket there was entire harmony. The Convention nominated the following ticket, and adopted (he following platform Governor Judge Morton, of Wayne county. Lieutenant Governor Conrad Haker, of Vanderberg county. Secretary of Stale John W. Dawson, ol Allen county, . Treasurer of Stale Wm. H. Noff singer, of Park county. Audit r of Stale K. W. II. Kills, of Marion county. Itepurter of Supreme Court John A. Stein, nf Tippecanoe county . Clerk of Aapreme Ouurt John A, Heal, of Miami county. Aitorney Heneral Jas, II. Cravens, of Ripley county. Superintendent of Public Instruction John I.

The People of ludiani, consisting ol ail wno are opooseii to tin- policy oi lim present i i ii. mi itiin iiiistration, assembled in Convention at the capital of the Htale, now submit to the people the following platform of principles: RioveH, That we are uneompro misingly opposed to the extension of slavery; nnu that we utterly repudiate the platform of principles adoptde by the self-styled Democratic Convention of this Stale, endorsing and approving the Kansas Nebraska iniquity. ltovd, That we we will resist by all proper means the admission of any Slave Slate into this Union formed out of the Territories secured to free dotn by the Missouri Compromise, or otherwise. KcsoliW, That we are in favor of the immediate admission of Kansas as a free State. lieoved, That wo arc in favor of tlx- Naluraliiation Laws of Congress with the five years probation, and that tbe right of suffrage should accompany and not preeede naturalisation. Reoved, That we beleive the Oeneral Asaembly of ihe State have power to prohibit the sale of intoxicating liquors, as a beverage, and that we are in favor of a constitutional law which will effectually suppress the evils of intemperance. Rlot at Panama. A bloody riot occurred al Panama on lhe 2ist ait., whic. grw eutof the i , . . i A . conduct of a drunken American. Haaas t.a nr on A SaäsAaans mnn tilU.t and others wounded. The natives seem to have been premeditating auch a not, and took this occasion to exe cute their designs. They robbed every one whom they killed, and others also. This occurrence demonstrates the absolute necessity of such a control of the Isthmus an will secure the lives and treasures of our citisens. That route to the Pacific must be the route for a quarter of a century. If Congress should immediately and energetically begin the construction of a railroad it could not be built and enlarged so as to accommodate tbe travel between the Atlantic and Pacific in 'ib years. Th l'anama route is the route, and a farmer might as well allow an unfriendly and thieving man to own a strip of ground between his house and barn as our government to allow this country to lie in ihe hands of such a band of robbers as these natives have proved themselves to belt must be bought at any price. The Iowa Mania. Novcr were greater mistakes made than by some who are entering lands in Iowa on speculation. We saw, at Indianapolis, a citisen of Iowa, who informed us that an "Agent" who had recently entered IG.OOU acres at one time, did il without having ecu the land, and more than half of it was awamp lands, not worlh more thun ten cents per acre. If some who have sent their money to Iowa don's regret it when tax paying comes, wo miss our gueas. Those who have first selected their lands and then entered thi-m, and gone to them will do well, but these are not one in ten of those who have invested money in Iowa lands. Col. Lane's Speech.

White men must clean the streets, work the roads, stand behind the chairs of gentlemen at table, brush their clothes, black their boots, and hold their horses! To thi conditio "H free eociety toon come'" This eulogy on the "border ruffian" bus the merit of novelty: and so has the accompanying eulogy on Slavery over free society. Uolh show the inevitable tendency of the Rlavcholding sentiment, and indicate the issue that must sooner or later be made ujain this subject, If the Knquircris right, if civilisation demands thnt the laboring classes shall be slaves if the condition of things at the South is really no superior to the "free noddy" of the Northern States, then that condition should be made universal. No solitary reason can be urged for extending Slavery into Kansas, which would not have equal weight in favor of reducing to Slavery tbe laboring classes in every Northern State. Degr edation of the Poor Whites. Ii is reported that Mrs. Stowe, the author of Uncle Ton's Cabin, will soon put lo press a work illustiating the degradation of the poor white popu lat-on of the South. The lady need j not go South to find subjects for her pictures. 1 he degreSSon we may say the positively abject elavery of the " , i . . i 1 ro.ne a' Ii t In n.ooil ill sf tturt . white population of the north" was an object of scorn r.nd contempt with our old line friends, unless they were Irish or Dutch, but Bro. Covington is the first to put on record that they aie worse than negro slaves. This accounts for the untiring efforts of that party to introduce slavery into Kansas and thus to keep out "the poor white population of the north." fyAt .i trial of Oorn and Cob Mills, last Monday, al Paris, Ky., the Little (iiant Mill ground 6 busbela of meal, nnd tbo bxcelsior Young Anier ica Mill ground 2$ bushels of meal.

That is the only test of genuine black republicanism. Cm. Knq There it is, plumply ami fairly confessed. What particular dirty purpose the A'nauircr had in new telling this truth, we can't guess, and as it will certainly tke it back or contra diet it on the first occasion that a lit promises to answer a better purpose, it is not important. Hut it is worlh while, neverthleee, to put the eonGse. sion on record, so that win u the old charge of designs against the si States and hostility to the Union, and soon, are trumpeted about, it can bo used. The Kt jiuhlican ., u I In I'.n ouirer says, are asking for a union ol all honest men upon the "one single issue of opposition to the Nebraska Hill." They want to meet lhe slave power upon one distinct, well-understood jssuc. Let it bo remembered, when the "old line" sheets are raving craxv, as they always gel to be lo wards the close of a campaign, and the beat of their arguments is uImhc and bud names, that every promim-m pnper of 'he parly, the ablest, the least likely to tell the truth, lhe surest to lie to advnnliiue, has admitte d i!i t the Kcpub'ieans have but one purpose, and that ia neither "abolition" nor 'disunion." hul.

The Washington Union, while under ihe charge of Mr. Haclianan'a personal friend, did not deny it, though etta ilion was mure ihan once called to it, but now that the personal friend has withdrawn fiom theollicial organ, thai print regards the exposition of Mr. Hucliauaii's viewu on Slavery, as given in lhe biography, with suspicion.

Ool i i i.ane He came from the not to discuss ab f K stract question of constitutional law, for the people present knew as much of nch questions aa the people of Kaasas, He did dot expect to relets any now feats; lor they bad beerd ell that related to K ansae affair- He came as one neighbor comes to another to (ell (hem the hopes, the wishes, mid (he fear ol ibe Kansas men. We were told that if we went to Kante, we should be allowed to miik- .mi ..wn laws, to "mould our own institutions," and we were pariicul'iriy luld that it wae the true lati nt and meaning of the Nebraska Hill, neither lo Introduce Slavery Into KsnsHs nor exclude it therefrom, but to leave the people perfectly free to reeks their own instltutlaoe. This wa. emphasised especially. They Ud gone to Kansa upon that invitation from almost all the Ntalee of tbe I "" but particularly Missouri, I I r) Neil to Missouri, I mil uns had sent the greatest number, '" ' ''mil all New Kugland and New York together, lie therefore spoke on In-half of tin bivilnen of those who wi-iu pi, sent, Of emlurants from M i, there were not, In he In It, more (ban 170 from all New Kngland, AUÜ Of ihe flO memthe L glslature, recently in session in Kansas, 9e were from Indi ana, nearly half of the whole body, m i tin- i pie of this State were not olllre nrekein particularly , either, (lmthier ) Ami of thin number, no olio had over held a legislative office 1,1 f 'i ' In , weie honcut liattiotie nil n, for whom no one could have 1 !

"Old liners" talk as if Kansas was milled by Yankees, and Kmigranl Aid Societies. Joe Wright talks so. I Hr ( Lane) had a right to apeak of Joe I 111 I i . m s . m s a a a wri;("'.

He eonld satisfy any body that he had not changed, but these apologists of thi Missotirians and Pierce, bad betrayed the party. Tbey talk of Emigrant Aid Societies, end yet before a single emigrant had been sent from the Hast, societies weru in existence all over Missouri to force slavery into Kansas, and to orush and kill the Free Stale men. There were Societies in South Carolina, in (ieorgia, Mississippi, new forwarding emigrants, but these "old liners" had not a word to say against them. They were taking Slavery into Kauaos, and waa all right. It was only the free emigrants that abuse was heaped upon. These Southern Societies sent emigrants, paid their expenses, gave i hem eighty acres of land, and equip,.it !li..m uliili' lw li (i...l finwrnnr Wr.,ht i .1, n, iii.. Kssi Sr.. cielies had ever given any man pay to go to Kansas. They had furnished il. in ticket at rather less than the usual rates, und h id furnished equipments, but they were all paid for by the emigrants. No man in Kansas wa under any obligation to a single i et in Massachusetts or the Bast. These societies aimed only at building saw mills, hotels, &c, and developO ' ing the resources of the country. lie had gone lo Kansas a Democrat. Hi- u , at tin re to organise the Demoenrti party. He had desired to have ihe slavery question settled quietly, like any other affair. But the Missounans told him that the party must h ive a slavery plank in their platform, or they would not assist in organizing it. He said he would not consent that the party should be made a wagon to carry slavery into tbe Ter rltory. They called him an "abolition lecturer," and his only effort and aim had been to organize a DemocratI party. One evening, while discuscussing their affairB among themselves a couple of thousands of Missi urians im over, armed. Tbey were asked what they wanted. They said they had come to elect the Delegate the next day, and they did. Tbey elected White-field. They were ready to commit any outrage to carry their point. If any man will go into Platte, or any Western Missouri county, he will be told that the Misiourians consider Kansas a part of Missouri.They don't ask any of the white washing that Joe Wright nnd the "old linurs" make for them. They speak plainly and claim the right to have slaves in Kansas just as in Missouri. Id then spoke of the fraude com mitted in the election of the mob le

He aaid, ('bowing the volume, which wae a rar large one), that il would take an Indiana, or any other common legisloMire, about a year to make such a mass of laws, but the Missouri men did it in about three weeks, or a little OVCf. And he would give them an il lustration ot the way they did it. Law . he said, ought lo be made with deliberation. But these bogus law givers were sr anxious to get the laws f Missouri in Kansas, that tbey had not l'me to change tbe phraseology to suit their circumstances, and so lo we avoid the difficulties of such a hasty borrowing, they made a law laying ; 'hat whenever the wtrd "State" oc'u: ieti, u snouiu ne ueemea anu taKi n I I til I J 1.1 I to mean "territory." (Great laughHo then read on page 718 of i K'insas btatules ar act making the pro- ' vision. He then discussed the law of suffrage, reading the sections of the act which made il necessary to pay a dolto tbe Sheriff before voting, then to swear to support the Fugitive Slave Law, and then to support the Kansas Bill.

( Tremendous applause.) When these three things were done a free State man could vote, if Missourians did not tar and feitln r him, or cut him in pieces with hatchets in the meanwhile. Besides all these things, said he, we are not allowed (o vote for any officer. Tbe Legislatu e appointed every officer for years ahead, and for fear they

wit ending all the other oncers, we hed made a Constitution giving usihe riirht to elect Judges, while the people of Kansas could not elect a Justice of the Peace under the laws which Joe Wright said ought to be obeyed.

Tarring and feathering men, and eepeelally pieachers, h said, med to he coin mon amusement He saw t' e praaoher who had been tarred and feathered and sent down the Missouri river. Of all disgusting exhibitions, a man with a ooat of lar and feathers woe the worst. He had seen It once, and never wanted to eee it again. A man whs deformed out of all human shape. To see a human being roll d into a mass devoid even of the appearance of humanity, wae ternb)", Hut to that odious, disgusting torture, a preacher of the gospel was subjected he cause he said that he was for making Kansas a free State. After thia "coat" had been spread over him, he was placed upon a raft of two loge, held together by clap boards, and with a piece of bacon and coin bread, was started down tbe Missouri lhe most rapid and dangerous stream in tbe world. Such was lhe treatment of free State preachers. Collins was murdered. Collins had acted with him on the committee on Platforms at the Convention in Kansas. He wae a gallant and noble man. He had been murdered. It was said that Laughlin hod shot bim m a street 6ght, but that was false. He was killed by a shotgun, end by another person. Dow had been murdered. Coleman killed him while he was on the road home from a blacksmith shop. Here Coi Lane narrated the .storyAjf Dow's death as it was related by our correspondents at the time. Harb i had been killed cruelly, and in eold blood. He was an excellent. inoffensive man; another hod been kill ...I m.iwlA... lo. (Marl. til Hitt.n vu, uiuiuucu ij Kjimim, iU. tuuisu agent, during the troubles at Law rence, and Ulark bad gone to tbe Missonrians' camp and boasted that be "saw the dust fly out of the abolitionist's clothes when the ball hit them." Brown had been most foully murdered. He died like a brave man, who could whip lhe ruffians, and lud done it, two to one. He waa going home with others, in a wagon, one day, not long ago, when be was met by eome eighteen Missourians- tbey stopped the way. He told them to let him pass, and as they did not feel strong enough to fight him with even two to one, they let him pass. Later be met another company of seventy Missourians. They also stopped him. He resisted, bat that company was strong enough to take htm. They did it, but with the strongest assurance that (he should not be hurl. How were those promise kept ? Worse than among barbarians. He was taken to a cabin, through the cracks of which could be Men what was going on meide. He was told that he must die. He asked for a chance for bis life. He bogged them to let him fight any two of them for bis life, with any weapon tbey pleased, pistols, knives or guns. No, they would give him no chance. A halter was put around his neck, and he was led to the door. The limb was ready. But when be had reached the door, they set upon him, bound as be was, and thus assured that he should be protected, and cut bim all tojpieces wilb hatchets. They kicked that mangled body to his wagon, more than one hundred yards They threw it into the wagon, and kicked it after it waa thrown io. Tbey drove with it to hie honse, and the first intimation that his wife had of his fate, was seeing his mangled corpse pitched into the house, so that his blood spattered her dress. She was an ex cellent and interesting woman, one of as good women as ever lived. She was made a jmaniao by lha. awful night. Such were the sufferings of the free men of Kansas. I ask, aaid be, if we did not need protection aa did Arkansas or Michigan? You "old-liners," I ask if we du not need it more than Texas did ? Shall not Kansas be protected ? (Cries of yes, yes I) Then give her your sympathy, and make thai sympathy speak out at the election, and you cun protect her. (Loud applause. ) Indications. There is no more striking, and at the same time no more satisfactory contrast between the present times and past ages than is exhibited in the diminished degree of rancor with which men and nationns regard each other.
