Never were the prospects of the election cf a democratic President better than at present. In carefully looking over the wo tLiuli it i- no xronJor tliat tbo fusioniäts are becoming1 reckless; quiet is being restored in Kansas, and the cream of j the old whig party will naturally act with , the democrats, fjr the reason that in 1852, the last whig national convention that ever assembled, adopted a resolution on the slavery question, in nearly the precise language as did the democratic convention in the same year, and embodying the same: principles as are set forth in the Kansas & Nebraska bill. The only question that is in issue is shall the residents of the ter-' . ritories be .allowed to make their own laws? The old line whigs, that adhere to the last resolution that was ever adopted by a whig national convention on that subject, must of necessity act with the democrats. S,ml t " . , v. . . , I nt t f if nt have rw-en nl.ri!i?r.nit nnt njii matter mond ernor a national existence; but when it ceased to exist, he acted with the democrats for the reasons above stated. The Northern Indianian, and in fact the j greater portion of the "small fry" fusion j papers of the north, are abusing the Judge for acting with the democrats. 1 hey charge him of being influenced by tile love of office, and call him every'-hing but a gentleman, because he advocates the same principles and measures and did Clay and Webster. It seema to us that such complaints come with rather a bad grace from those who support the fusion State ticket. Look over your list of candidate?, gentlemen, and see if two-thirds of them at least, are not renegade democrats and know-nothings. That, however, is all right in the estimation of the fusion party, but it is an awful crime for Judge Hammond to be a candidate without any solicitation on his own part. We commenced this article with the in.tcnion of saying something in reference to the chances of James Buchanan and j. c. fremont being President of these States. Tho fusionists admit that Buchanan will get every southern State, and Pennsylvania also, bo much conceded at the start; in addition to these tho democrats claim Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, New York & Maine, and an equal chance fr Wisconsin, New Hampshire, Connecticut, and California, and a better chance for Illinois. The southern States and Pennsylvani 1 will only lack two votes of being enough to elect. We predict that Fremont will be the worst beat man for President that has been on tho track for years. The most noted act of his life wag stealing old Bullion's daughter. He has no claims to the Presidency, except that of Mariposi. The time has paswd by when the American people will elect a man for President who has no claims to statesmanship whatever; and there is but vrry little known of hi' political

Ciiamplin, being J called on, each responded in a manner that j proved them well posted in the history and I principles of our government. The di 1ner, goUen up by Mr. Edwards, was the finest over set before hungry patriots in Plymouth. Who, after witnessing the ceremonies of that day, does feel proud of his country, her chivalrous sons and beauteous daughters? that does not desire the perj petuity and unparalleled prosperity of our j republican institutions? A national ccle- ' bration of the "memorable 4th," is calculated to awaken the spirit of "70 to make every heart throb with patriotic emotions to allay sectional strife and partisan feelings and to ft-ed our love of freedom and hate of tyranny. All parties, denominations, ages and sexes, can meet on that day land exchange congratulations on the flourishing condition of our republic, and, as one man, "Traise tho power that made ami preserved us a nation." The few around town, who do not take the Democrat, but know everything that is in it a few hours after it is out, and take particular pains to denounce it on all occasions, are requested to call at this office and get a copy each week. We print a few extra copies, and would rather give them away than have those modern Solons steal from our subscribers. Ratification Meeting.

The Republicans hold their county Convention on the 19th inst., and their Congressional and District Conventions on the 23d inst. both at Plymouth. Ihe Topeka Constitution, under which ! the 'republicans' said Kansas would be adI mitted as a State, was voted down in the House on the 30lh ult.

This will give character to the Road, and no doubt insure the speedy completion of the same. Republican Meetings. Union Town, Saturday July 3d; five republicans and a few democrats iu attendance. HindaH's Schoolhouse, same day; from one to three republicans attended this meeting besides the speakers and others who went from town. The republicans are boiling meetings in every part of the county; are thoroughly aroused to the great work; are making great speeches to rfo'.iudier.ces and are doing a great work fcr the democratic party. Two old and respectable gentlemen, after listening to the belchings forth of these modern dcclaimers, said, if that was the doctrine of the republican party they were no longer republicans. The work goes bravely onl We learn thai the Banner has changed hands, and will hereafter be republican in politics.

The screw steamer North America, from Liverpool, on the 18th inst., passed the Du Loup river at 10 o'clock this morning, and reached here this evening. The American difficulty is likely to be settled amicably, and Mr. Dallas will not be dismissed. The funds rose slightly in consequence. In the House of Lords, on Monday evening, the 16th, the Earl of Clarendon stated in reply to the Earl of Derby, that it was not the intention of the government to advise her Majesty to suspend diplomotie re lations with the United States. This announcement was received with loud cheers. The Earl of Derby expressed his satisfaction at the statement, but he icgarded the course by the government as humiliating, and as acknowledging that they had been in error. Lord Clarendon appealed to the House not to join the Earl of Derby in pressing the question; and the subject then dropped. Consols closed at 9 t &Q 1J. In the Liverpool cotton market, on Monday, the sales mounted to 12,000, of which speculators took 5,000 at prices -Jd higher than the rates of the previous Friday; tho advance made on Saturday, of which we were advised by the Asia, being in hict mnintained. On Tuesday the market became dull, the sales being restricted to 5,000 bales, and the quotations receded to those current on Friday. In breadstufls a slight improvement had taken place in some articies. Corn is called ls2s higher. Western canal flour is quoted at 3os; Philadelphia 3Gs37s; Canadian 3Cs,37s. Red wheat 10s 3d.

Mr. (Joode's motion to reconsider was made unde? a misapprehension, and will he withdrawn to-morrow; and it is not believed any other member who voted in the majority can be found to renew it. It is thus seen that the conservative element is stronger, even in Congress, than was supposed. The Somite bill will undoubtedly pass both Houses. Senator Douglas reported his bill to-day. It is similar to Mr. Toombs' bill, but is quite lengthy. It provides for catling a convention to forma State constitution for Kansas the election to be held 1st the Tuesdav in November. The convention is to mo., on ti,e firt Monday of December, so that the constitution may be adopted and !the State admitted at the next session ot Cunrcss; ,v0 Commissioners are to be illilJ'UUtcu ID lll.lh.i- ,i n.-ii3ii j mi um; in. in: ... -p"'...: ei izeps residing in the Territory at the time of in' passage of the act.

Charges against Mr. Buchanan. So absurd and scandalous are some of the charges trumpeted up by such lesser lights of the black republican press as the Detroit Advertiser, that the A"! V. Tribune, fearing their damaging effect upon the cause they are designed to subserve, protests against their repetition hereaftei. The Tribune remarks: "We have met with two or three assertions that it can be proved by living witnesses that Mr. Ihichanan onco said that if he thought there were adiop of democratic blood in his veins, he would let it out.' We think .this must be a misapprehension or exaggeration." Again, it says: "The charge that Mr. Buchanan has advocated arcductionof laboring men's wages to ten cents per day, has but a very partial support in fact. He certainly never made any such proposition directly, mr anything which ho understood to have that effect." Of course the Tribune is not actuated by the honest notive of doing justico to Mr. Buchanan in protesting against such absurd misrepresentations of him; it is moved only by considerations of policy.

A committee was appointed by the Democratic Convention, held at Cincinnati, to notify the Hon. James Buchanan of his nomination. The following reply from him, was received by said Commute?: Wheatland, near Lancaster,) June 16.

the people of no other country have tlie power to bestow. Deeply sensible of the vast and varied responsibility attached to the station pneei illv at the iin-sent crisis in our affairs, I have carefully refrained from seeking the nomination either bv word or by deed. Now that it has been otiered by the Democratic party, I accept it with diffidence in my own abilities, but with an humble trust, that in the event of my election, I may be enabled to discharge my duty in such a manner as to all ly domestic strife, preserve peace and friendship with foreign nations, and promote the best interests of the Republic. In accepting tho nomination, I need j scarcely say that I accept in the same spirit, the resolutions constituting the platform j of principles erected by the Convention. To this platform I intend to confine myself throughout the canvass, believing that I have no right, as the candidate of the Democratic party, by answering interrogatories, to present new and difterent issues before the people. It will not bo expected that in this answer, t should specially refer to the subject of eaclfof tho resolutions; and I shall therefore confine myself to the two topi2s now most prominently before the people. And in the first place, I cordially concur in tho sentiments expressed by the Convention on the subject of civil and religious liberty. No party founded on religious or political intolerance towards one class of American citizens, whether born in our own or in a foreign land, can long continue to exist in this country. We are all equal before God and the Constitution; and the dark spirit of despotism and bigotry which would create odious distinctions among our fellow-citizens, will be speedily rebuked by a free and enlightened public opinion. The agitation on the question of Domes tic Slavery lias too long distracted and di-1 vuled the people of this Union and aliena- j ted their affections from each other. This ' agitation has assumed many funis since1 its commencement, but id now s- eins to b .i;...wi , k: 4i ,k. t : . i' uirectetl chiefly to the lerniori-s; and judging from its present character, I think ! we may saf.dy anticipate that iL is rapidly !

the confederacy. Its character is strictly national, and it therefore asserts no principle for the guidance of the Federal Government which is not adopted and sustained by its members in each and evry State. For this reason it is everywhere tho same determined foe. of .all geographical parlies, so much and so justly dreaded by tho Father of his country. From its very nature it must continue to exist so long .as there is a Constitution and a Unior to preserve. A conviction of these truths has induced many of the purest, tho ablöst and most independent of our former opponents, who have differed from us in times gone by upon old and extinct party issues, to come into our ranks and devot themselves with us to the cause of the Constitution and the Union. Under these circumstances, I most cheerfully pledge myself, should the nomination of tho Convention be ratified by the people, that all the power and influence constitutionally possessed by the Executive shall be exerted, in a firm but conciliatory spirit, during the single term I ßhall remain in office, to restore the pamo bar

wisdom and firmness as to assure the pros perity of the people at home, whilst the interest and honor of our country are wisely and inflexibly maintained abroad. Our foreign policy ought ever to be based upon the principle of doing justice to all na.ions, and requiring justice from them in return; and from this principle I shall never depart. Should I be placed in the Executive chair, 1 shall use my best exertions to cultivate peace and friendship with all nations, believing this to be our highest policy as well as our imperative duty; but at the same time, I should never forget that in case tho necessity should arise, which I now do not apprehend, our national rights and national honor must be preserved at all hazards and at any sacrifice Firmlv convinced that a special Providence governs the aflairs ot nations, let us humbly implore his continued blessing upon our country, and that he may avert from us the punishment we justly deserve for being discontented and ungrateful while enjoying privileges above all nations, under such a Constitution and such a Union as has never been vouchsafed to any other people.

We notice that the republican papers are speaking of Col. Fremont as the man who tirst planted the United States Hag upon the shores of California. We believe our neighbor of the Atlas have endorsed that statement. Now, we do not know but these journals are ignorant of history; we do not know that they intend wilfully to falsify. However that may be, the statement is simply a falsehood. There is not one word of truth in it; and if those papers don't know, they areas excusable for their ignorance as for their mendacity. Col.
