W h a t tfie South G a ins by the R e - l>c'al o f the Missouri Com p rom ise. , *Tho repeal of the Missouri restriction is Vindicated by e very consideration o f right ‘'und justice, lint there are persons o f such sordid'impulses and narrow vision, that they appreciate a measure o f public policy in proportion only to its yield of visible, palpable, and digestahle product, In the judgment of such individual*, the Kansas- Nebraska bill is worth nothing as an act of •atonement to the Constitution and repara tion tu the South, They respect it not at ‘all for the great principles which it ennnei ates and incorporates in the policy of the government. Insensible to the finer moral .results whiqh constitute the aim of the ^highest and truest statesmanship, the gross appetites of those politicians reject the really precious advantages which the South realizes from the repeal of the Missouri re striction. Bolts, for instance, appreciates the true value o f that measure about as much as Ueliogabulus would have relished the nectar and arnbros/a o f the Olympian repast. Talk to him of vindicating the in tegrity of the Constitution, o f restoring the South to its past equality and dignity in the Union, and you simply provoke a con- teinptious chuckle with all your tine phra ses. Luckily for the satisfaction or the confu tation of such individuals as Mr. John Mi nor Betts, the Kansas-Nebraska net is not destitute o f immediate visible and tangible advantage to the interest o f the South, The repeal of the Missouri restriction, besides ■offering atonement and separation f o r an affront upon the South, o p e n s t i i b F e d e r a l D o m a i n ' t o t h e F r e e E x p a n s i o n a n d D e v e l o p m e n t o f N e g r o S l a v e r y . It is manifest from the history o f the country during the last twenty years, that the Constitution, in its protection of the rights of the South, indeed, the powers of the common governmental perverted from their beneficial purposes, and are employed as the active agencies o f oppression and spoliation again-1 tho slaveholding States. The South, then, has no other heeurity but i ts own capabilities of defence. It is essen tial to the protection of Its rights that it should maintain a power in the government, equivalent, at least, to a negative on op- reesive, iniquitous, and uncoi stitutional legislation. The abolitionists have ever had control of a majority o f the popular vote . They now hold indisputable i^cendnncy in tho House of Representatives. In the Senate even the South is in a minority ol one Slate; though fortunately ft conservative sentiment is still supreme in that branch o f the federal legis lature* The day is not distant, however, when the sixteen free states will be repre «euted in the Senate by the political associ ates o f Wilson and Seward; and when Congress will be under the absolute sway of abolitionism. The South may turn to the Executive, but with a scarcely stronger tiope o f protection. / fre,nont may not be elected; but the triumph of hU party will he postponed only f o r a single term; unless, meanwhile, the South recovers its power in the confederacy, and establishes a counter poise to the ascendency of abolitionism. This, then, is the only salvation for the South — to recover a self protecting power in ithe Senate . For, if left to its own impulse, .abolitionism will descend upon slavery with decreasing force and fury ot attack, and will ultimately subjugate the South or expel it from the Union. How can tho Sooth possess itself of this self-protecting power ? How recover its ascendancy in the Senate? Oregon, Wash ington, Minnesota, and Nebraska, oil free atates in embryo, w ill eoucterba’nnce the accession of the South by tho division of Texas, even though the North should ob serve its obligation under the treaty of an nexation. Utah and New Mexico will in all probability, send four Anti-Slavery votes into the Senate. So much o l one aide. The only present chance pof accession to 'the strength.of the South, is the admission of Kansas into .the Union, with a pro slavery constitution, Iu two years, at the farthest, the,territory will assume the sov ereignty of a State, and in all probability, will adopt the institutions of the South.— Then the South will recover its equality in the Senate, and will bo competent to the protection of its rights. Though in capable of directing the policy of tlie gov ernment to the end of Slavery propagan dist!), (which the South desires only for purposes of self-defence,) it will be fully equal to the defeat of measures o f freesoil aggression. With Kansas to back it in the Senate, the South can compel the fulfil ment ot the Texas treaty, by resisting tho admission o f other free States. With Kan sas to back it in the Senate, the South can •lay the inarch of abolitionism, and main tain its own rights and independence for an indefinite period. But Kansas would leave been a free state i f the Missouri restriction had not been re pealed ; and instead of augmenting the power of the South, would have recruited the ranks of abolitionism. Besides, then ibe positive edvantage of an accession of strength which the South gains under the •operation of tlie Kansas Nebraska act, wo must consider the evils averted as well as .the wrongs redressed by the measure, if we would appreciate the full value of its act vice to Slavery. In the one contingen cy the hopes of the patriot are flattered by the i rospect o f a s<ctiom.J equilibrium,and a consequent continuance of the Union.— In Uie other he traces a rapid succession of tearful, effects, from the aggrandizement o f the anti-Slavery power to the ultimate subjugation c f the South, or disruption of the confederacy. In this connection we need scarcely ad vert to that other vital consideration, that with Kansas as a Slave State, the flank of rthe South will be completely covered, from -the Gulf o f Mexico to the frontier of Ne braska and Iowa, and that thus the institu tion will be secure from external attack, and impregnable in its isolation ; while, on the contrary should Kansas be wrested fro n our grasp, it will become the asylum o f tlie missionaries o f free soil, who will thence direct their efforts against Missouri, with irresistable effect, and will so propa gate the poison of Abolitionism, and so prosecute the business of kidnapping, that within a very few years Tennessee will be come a border atnt e, and tlie v e r y centre o f the Southern column be pierced by the invading forces. It being thus a matter of supreme mo ment to the Soutli that Kansas shall enter &he Union ns a slave Slate, the South sho'd toot deprecate tho repeal of the Missouri restriction, in virtue o f which the inesti mable advantage is secured to slavery of perfect protection aud free development. R c v . A b n o r C h a s e ’ s M o i i u m c u l . Friends we wish to place at the grave pi our venerable, departed father in the Gospel, some plain aud suitable memorial. Father Chase died pojr in tlie things o f Aliis world, but rich in faith, rich in Chris- Turn experience, rich in a life ol holy devo tion, rich in the affections of the Church. Will hie numerous friends— we had al- Snosta&id children— uaito to place over his htmable grave, a Stone that shall^ ttll the passer by what relics lie there in trust, who aud what was the man, and what was the part he acted? Br, Chase was one of a few who have devoted a long lite wildly to the ministry. He was shut up to this one work. Uis influence in the Churches was great, while living, and his name is a sweet savor to them, now he is gone. We ask a little from each one to aid in providing this monument. Uis re mains lie in the grave yard near Penn Yan, upon a hillock at the toot o f the beautiful Keuka, (Crooked Lake.) We wish to pro vide the monument this fall. The Com mittee named for receiving, funds, are Messrs, S, 6. Ellsworth, L. 0 . Dunning, William M. Oliver, and Asa Cole, ot Penn Yao, and ourself.— All monies which come to our hands will be acknowledged in the Northern. We commence these acknowV .judgements in another column, this week. • (Northern Advocate. T h o Story o f F r e n ioiil’s C a t h o li cism , Letter f r o m R e v M r.

D ear B rother :— Your note of the 12th irrk. came to hand this morning and I avail myself o f my first leisure moments to reply to its contents.^ Of Alderman Fullmer I have nothing to^ay I do not know the man, and have n<[ wish to repeat rumors that are current with re gard to his diameter. In i\vto* of high po litical excitement like the present, such ru mors are utterly unreliable. Touching the report that Col. Fremont is a Catholic, I am prepared to give you definite and re liable information. Such reports are all false, all a lie from etui to end. Macauly, in one of his Reviews, says that one who has never read thelifeof Barber,may be said not to know what a lie is. The eloquent essayist would probably modify his opinion were he to acquaint him elf with the pres ent position of American politics, or look occasionally into tlie columns o f our Fill more papers. Neither Barber nor the fath er o f lies himself, ever colle cted a baser falsehood than the one by which a set of demagogues are attempting to deceive the public, with regerd to tlie religious senti mentsof Col. Fremont. lie is not a Ro manist, never has been, and has done noth ing to give color to the fabrications of his slandeters. John Wesley was not more free from all reasonable suspicion of lean ing towards the Church of Rome, than J. C. Fremont, lie was educated in the Prot estant faith, confirmed in a Protestant* Church, has been during all his Hfetime,and is now, an undisguised and decided Prot estant. This statement I make, not on the strength o f newspaper r e p o r t e r from here* say or second hand testimony. I am per sonally acquainted with Mr. Fremont, and know that he is not a Papist, just as I know that you are not ore.

C a r r o l l : Dear Sir— 1 regret that it will not be in my power to attend your great meeting on the third; neither my health nor my other engagements will allow me to leave home. I feel highly complimented however, by your pressing invitation, and by the im portance you seem to attach to my pooref torts in the cause. If I had time I should be glad to give you my views at some length in regard to the political controver sy which now agitates the country, but I must confine myselt to wlmt I deem the most important aspect o f this Presidential election in its results. The long threaten ed period has arrived when the people must decide whether the encroachments of t ie Slave power shall be submitted to or effec tually resisted. The friends of free white labor must now settle this question. If they fail in this struggle it will he useless to at tempt it peaceably und constitutionally hereafter. The triumph o f Slavery will be gin by making Kansas a Slave Stste. Bad as it would be, it would only be the enter ing wedge for greater evils to follow.— With such an accession of strength to the South, nothing, I fear could save the im mense territory lying west o f Kansas, from being made slave States eventually. The slave trade will be again legalized and sla very not only become a predominant power but a national institution. The exclusion of tree white labor from the vast extent of the Western Territory, would be the death blow to our national prosperity, the great element of which is the expansion of industry to every point where it con find its reward. Free labor, we know, cannot prosper where Slavery exists. It requires, on the one hand, free soil for its eiercise, and on tlie other, in dependence of the control of capital for its •u ccess and for tlie welfare of those who live by it. Tlie inevitable consequence of ercluding it from the Western territory must be to confine it to the already thickly populated districts, exposing it to all ihe social evils which beset labor in crowded communities, and making it subservient for its rewards, tv tlie interests ol those who do not labor themselves, but make profit out ot the labor o f others. All clasres of free men therefore, who depend on their own industry,have a strong interest in resisting the extension of slave ry ; but it is to those of foreign birth whose pursuits are almost wholly depend ant on their labor, that the question of free soil is o f vital importance. They have all fled from slavery in some form, to seek homes and resting places in this favored land. And the free exercise o f their indus try is the sole guarantee that this country can offer .or their honorable eucces. C o n g r e s s i o n a l C o n v e n t I o n . The Republican electors of the 26th Congressional District, composed o f the counties o f Ontario, Seneca and Yatci, are requested to seed five Delegates from each As sembly District, to a Republican Convention to be held at the Franklin House, in the village o f Geneva,on Saturday the 4th day o f October next, for the purpose o f nominating a Candidate to be supported for Representative in Con gress for said District, and to transact such other business as.may be deemed necessary.

Every man therefore who lives by his labor, who honor* it as the poor luaiVs tribute to society, who sympathizes with its struggles, <>r who values it ns the only solid basis of our national prosperity, is bound to oppose tho demands o f Slavery in this contest, whether made in th« names o f Buchanan or Fillmore. There are but two ways of doing this— either by force of law or by force of arms. The one would be civil war. The other will I trust, be the peaceful and coii'titutionnl triumph of our ticket and platform, by the efforts of patri otiamcn, from all parties who, under our Republican bauncr, mean to rescue our country from the greatest peril which has as yet threatened if..

Nothing evinces with so much certainty Ihe desperation of the Doughface parties as the attempts they are making on every hand, to unite for the purpose o f defeating the Republicans. This i* a confession on . their part that the Republicans arc too strong for either section of the opposition. No hope remains except to coalesce on one ticket. If they fail in that all is lost. So now it is proposed, either to form an electoral Ticket ot half Buchanan and half Fillmore men, or throw the Fillmore vote for Buchanan, while the Buchaneers go in tor Brooks tor Governor, All sorts o f fu sion are proposed, and, something desperate will be attempted. What precise shape the thing will aeaume it is imposcible to tell at present. Perhaps a dozen o r more plans will be elaborated and set aside for new bargains between these corrupt slave driving factions. The leaders have no prin ciples at stake, and will clutch at any expe dient affording the least hope o f success. We ore confident, however, that none of these things will aid the falling fortunes of the doughfaces. The people are bound to exterminate the race. They have fixed on the year 1856 to do the work, and the time is nt hand. C iroui . atr fliE D ocuments .— Are on friends in the dounty doing all they can to promote the success o f Fremont and Free dom ? We fear net. We fear that too much reliance is placed upon tho fact that our principles are just and that the electors must see them in the same light that we do, and embrace them. It must be borne in mind that hundreds of men have not ihe same means o f Information that you have, and unless it is furnished them, they will not, and cannot understand the impor tance o f this great contest for Freedom. Every voter thould he supplied with such reading matter as will tend to throw light upon tho question ot Slavery extension. Let no honest voter be overlooked in this particular. Let every earnest friend of Freed jm but do his duty, and onr word for it, lie wil. have no cause to regret the time and labor spent. But a short time emalns for work, let it bo well spent, aud victory is certain.,, . ■ A* ' B a s s W o o b P a p e r . — The Albany Evening Journal printed its entire edition, daily and semi-weekly, on Wednesday last on an improved quality o f basswood paper.

There is not a cloud even o f the size o f a man’s hand. Iowa, our neighbor, has, you know, told a pretty fair story, but she has hardly been just to her own sentiment and feeling. Look out for something altogether more emphatic and decisive in Noveinler. This Stale is sure for F r e m o n t , by ot least ten thousand ma jority. You may safely depend on that.— And this, considering our foreign element, may be regarded as tolerably fair. There is no Buchanan man, at this time, that pre tends to claim Wisconsin. Speaking o f the claims o f that class, I have been amused to see their modesty of late. They have, all at once, lost their extravagance. They think now that Buchanan will carry Penn sylvania, and Indiana, and California; they think so. It is hardly a fa ith .

We have entered that d— -d town, and taught the d—<— d Abolitionists a Southern lessen they will remember until the day they die. Now, boys, we will go in again with our highly honorable Jones , and test the strength of that d— d Free State Hotel, and teach the Emigrant Aid Company that Kansas shall be ours.

Howell, This leaven no doubt but what our neighbor of the zette is iti the trade, from the fact that Mr. Howell is his particular pet, and should tlie heavens fall, and Buchanan be elected President, Mr. Parker will have the in fluence o f the Congressman and elector, both in his favor, for the Pott Office.— Our neighbor is setting the corns quite thick. Be careful that some of them are not pulled up. [Geneva Courier, It is quite probable the fusion candidate for Congress will be fixed upon some half a dozen limes, ami in as many different quarters, before election. They will find it no easy matter to unite the Hindoo and Buchanan parties on a single candidate. Though many o f the leaders are willing nndeagtr, many o f the rank and file have n stubborn habit of doing as they please, and would vote for the Republican can didate, rather than be void out without their consent. Besides, there will be a great deal o f hair-pulling between those who are ambitious to be ilie lucky candi date on whom tho fusion is made. The Republican Convention, which | meets at Geneva next Saturday, will set tle the question, we trust, by nominating a candidate that no doughface coalition can beat. Yan this week, has not been seen in town. There is a reason for it o f course, and that reason is said to be the lock o f suitable ac commodations on any reasonable terms.— We are informed that the lnndlorl of the American Hotel refused to take a company of 60 men for lees than $2,25 a day. This they regarded us extortionate, aud hence the Encampment was countermanded. Some o f the companies had arrived ns far as Canandnigua, when they received orders to return home. The public will not blame them when the facts are understood. T h e C o u n t y F a i r .— O n Thursday and Friday o f next week the Annual Fair of the Yates County Agricultural Soc ety will be held ou the grounds o f the society in this village. For the credit of tho County, and the permanent interest o f the Society, we hope the Fair will be liberally sustained by the Fermers. It is their institution, and if properly managed, may bo made highly ad vantageous to their interests. All that required is harmony and unity of feeling among those most interested. We hope to see a fine Agricultural display next week, and t multitude o f the good folks o f the County to witness it. R uffianism .— Oit Monday a neighbor hood quarrel took place in the upper part o f this village, in which the families o f two very respectable colored men were chbfly engaged. These men were John Thomas and John Sanders. The quarrel became a fight, and a person by the name o f John Holliday, joined the fray, and with a nail hammer fractured the skull o f John Tho mas. who was left in a very critical situa lion. Holliday was arraigned before Po lice Justice W o l c o t t , and sent to Jail, where he will remain unless he gives bail for his appearance at Court. T h o m a s W. A m s b u r y was assaulted on Saturday night, by some brutal being, and greatly disabled by blows received on his head. He is unable to be about but is said to be improving. We had auppoeed the departure of some o f the more conspicuous ruffians had im proved the character of tho village, but these things do not look like it. M r .

It is an excellent argument in favor o f the Proviso, for which the Republican members conten ded so long and so well. It is one of the rules of the West ern New York Typographical Association, that ell obituary notices, consisting of more than the simple announcement of death, are to be paid for at half the ensto mury advertising rates. We do not like always, to remind people of this rule, and still it is no more than simple justice that it should be adhered to.

Comprehending the magnitude of the trust which tl ey have declared themselves wil ling to place in my hands, and deeply sen aiblv to tho honor which their unreserved confidence in this threatening position of the public affairs implies, l feel that I can not better respond than by a sincere decla ration that, in the event o f my election to the Presidency, I should enter upon the ex ecution of its duties with a single hearted determination to promote tlie good of the whole country, and to direct solely to this end all the power of the government, irre spective of party issues, and regardless of sectional strifes. The declaration o f prin- couctry, and creates that ii t lligen t pow er in the masses alone to be relied on as the bulwark of free institutions. Trusting that I have ft heart capable of comprehending our whole country, with its varied interests and confident that pat riotism exiets in all parts of the Union, I accept the nomination o f the Convention^ in the hope that 7 may be enabled to seiveuse - fu l l y its cause , which I consider th £ cause of constitutional Freedom.

Troops, lias completed the sc l jugntion of Kansas. The bogus law’s forced upon tlie territory by the Border Ruffians, are quietly submitted to, because tho abused and hunted Free State men dare not resist tlie Federal authority. Slavery is therefore forced upon Kansas, and estab lished there by means o f murder, rapine, and outrage, sanctioned by the U. S. Gov ernment.* The only hope remaining for freedom o f Kansas is tho defeat of the Buchanan, Border Ruffian party. That, the people must eee to when the ballot boxes are opened on the 4th of November. We earnestly trust that it will bo done ef fectually. T h e C o n v e n t i o n . — The Religious hotly to convene in this village next week, is u Tlie Baptist Missionary Convention of the State of New York.” Its character may be seen from its name. It is an organiza tion for Missionary purposes, embracing as its field of operations, the Slate of \New York. Formerly when the country was new, it extended its efforts into Peuusvlva- j rily reflect, nia, Ohio and the Canadas. Its chief work has been to establish new churches where have been educated , and which hate been ripened into convictions by personal obser • rations and experience. With this declara- ration and nxownl, I think it necessary to revert to only two of the subjects ein- i braced in the resolutions, and to those only because events have surrounded them with grave and critical circumstances, and given to them especial importance. I cm cur in the views of tlie convention depreciating ihe foreign policy to which it adverts. Tlie assumption that wo have the right to take from another nation its domains because we want them,is an aban- j donment of the honest character which our country has acquired. To provoke hostil ities by unjust assumptions would be to sacrifice ihe peace ami character c f the country, when all its intere ts might he more certainly secured, and its objects at tained by jus-t and healing counsels, involv ing no loss of reputation. InternnV.onul embarrassments are mainly tlie results of a secret diplomacy, which aims to keep from the knowledge o f tlie people the operations of tho government. This system is inconsistent with the char acter of our institutions, and is itself yield ing gradually to a more enlightened public opinion, and to the power o f n free press, which, by its broad dissemination of polit ical intelligence, secures in advance to the ride of justice, the judgment of the civil ized world. An honest, firm and open pol icy in our foreign relations would d in- maml the united support of the nation whose deliberate opinions it would necessn- needed, and to strengthen leeble ones al ready existing. This organization has been in existence about half a century. We in vite the careful attention of our readers to au article we copy into our columns to-day, from 'tlie Richmond En quirer, the leading Buchanan Organ o f the South. It is an attempt to show what the South has gained by tlie repeal of the Mi»- eturi Compromise. It is openly proclaim ed by this article, that this repeal opens the Territories to the ;i Free Extension and development o f Negro Slavery” Wo want especially, those pretended Free Boilers who are supporting Buohauan, to digest carefully this article. They can read in that the service they are booked for. Read again the letter of Col. F re m o n t in another column and the resolution taken from the Republican platform, and when you have rea! them cut them out of the paper and carry them with you to read to every one you meet— don’t fail to do it. R e a d I t ! R e a d I t ! — The Hindoo organ pretends to giveihe Black Democratic, Nv- gro-Exteusion platform in its last issue, hut suppressed the fo lowing resolution : Resolved , That tlie administration ot Franklin Bierce lias been true to the Dem ocratic principles, and therefore true to tlie great interests of the country ; in the face o f violent opposition, he bus maintained the laws at home, aud therefore we pro claim p y oux u n q u a l i f i e d a p p r o b a t i o n o f m s MEASURES AND POLICY. B l a c k D e m o c r a c y . — Why should the Democrats be called tho Black Democracy? Because it Buchanan is elected, they will Nothing is clearer in tho history of onr institutions than the design of the nation in asserting its own independence and free dom, to avoid giving countenance to the extension of slavery. The influence o f the small but compact .and powerful class of men interested in slavery, who command one seel ion of the country, and yield a vast political control, as r. consequence, in the other, is now directed to turn this impulse o f the Revolution and reverse its principles. The extension o f slavery across ihe conti nent is the object o f the power which now rules the government , and from this spirit lias sprung those -kindred wrongs in Kan sas so truly portrayed in one o f your reso lutions, wliich prove that tlie elements of the most arbitrary governments have* rot been vanquished by the just theory of our own. It would be out of place hire to pledge myn-'U to any particular policy that has been suggested to terminate the sectional controversy engendered by political ani mosities, operating on a powerful class banded together by a common interest. A practical remedy is ihe admission of Kansas into the Union as a Free State. Tin South should,*ln my judgement, earn estly desire such consun.inatiun. It would vindicate the good faith— it would correct the mistake of the repeal; and tl* North, having practical/ the benefit of the agreement between the two sections, would be satisfied ami good feeling be restored. The meat tire is perfectly consistent with the honor of the South, and vie :1 to its in terests. That fatal net which gave birtl. to this purely sectional strife, originating In tho scheme to take from free labor the country secured to it by a solemn covenant, cannot be to soon disarmed o f its pernic ious fo ce. The only genial region o f the middle latitudes left to the emigrants o f the Northern tStates for koines cannot be conquered from the fr e e laborers^ who have long considered it as set apart f o r them in our inheritance , without provoking a des perate struggle .

My Esteemed Friend:— 1 l-ave seen published in tho newspapers of this city, since my return to California, several statements relating to a euhjec: which particularly concerns myself; and wishing to aid in setting public opinion right on the matter which I ain going to to speak o f with ail possible brevity,I have to request that you will publish thv>e lines in your Journal. Fur about eight years articles have ap peared witli more or less frequency in some newspapers in tlie Union, iu which a con tract for a number or*cattle has been spok en of, made in 1847, in the city of Los An geles, between Col. Fremont and inys-Jf— The evident want of truth in the published versions of that busino-s, and the simple nature of the contract made in this country under tlie circumstances .then existing, seemed to in? sufficient reasons for not ta king the trouble to refute unfounded calum nits. 1 do not now propose to give an ex tensive statement o f events or to make known the want o f resources under which California was conquered,because all three things are perfectly well known. The chiefs had no choice but to recur to their own personal credit to feed their soldiers. The cattle which C»l. Fremont contracted for were lor flint object It was necessary to transport them from San Louis Obispo, and tor that purpose Don A. Pico was ap pointed ; but when lie arrived with the cat tle Col Fremont had lost his command. As a sum of money accompanied the contract besides tlie heavy expenses paid on the way, 1 was not able to receive the cattle at Los Angeles, where I had no pasture laud, and therefore Mr. Fremont, who was bound by the contract— ns the new chiefs refused to receive the callle— found himself obliged to deliver them in deposite to M. A. Steurn- uf Los Angeles,who sent them to his rancho of San Riifiitl. It is not true, & has bsen said, that Col. Fremont gave a receipt before receiving the property. Tho contract was signed on ihe8d of March, 1847, and the receipt or document which proves that I performed my part, is dated April 2th, the same year when the total delivery hud been in'ide. Wo see therefore that those wl o have made this calumnious weapon against Col. Fremont, are very fur from the truth. And it ought to be kept in mind ns a certain and indubitably fact that Col. Fremont, in making prov sion for the future, rendered a real service tu the United States, while 1 suffered a severe injury; as, to the pn e nt tiny not a dollar has been paid by the gov ernment of tlie United States on a- count of the cattle, nor for the expenses and dam ages, or for the money delivered in 1847.— Tile public treasury, in reality, has ctune off the gainer; forjhe import duties on the cattle were collected in the Custom House of San Dieg'\ where they were transported from the valley of San Rafael :o tlie tvrri rjtory of Los Angeles, where they had been b r o u g h t . This Is the true history of that transac tion ; and tlie documents which prove it, will lie published iu due time, if necessary for the object of my claim. I am, very truly, Your friend and humble serv’t E. D e C blis .

We have already stated tlie fact that the Government never paid one cent for them, but we did not then know that it had actually made money on them , by subjecting them to duty at San Diego.
