The Republican upon Mr. The Republican has given us a long editorial proving, as it supposes, that Mr. Duohanan Is a Free Roller. The authority fbr this statement Isa Fourth of July oration of 1855. Fourth of July orations sro usually the most eratic and unsatisfiictory of productions. Before we pro* coed however, we must ask the question, if the Republican derives its information from the re cord itself or from some Know-Nothing journal ofdoubtfhlrespectability? Tho reason ofour interrogatory Is this, that Rome short sine© the Republican made a positive assertion concern ing Archbishop Hughes, which after pursuing the discussion to some length, we discovered to our amassment was stated upon tho authority of the Richmond If r Aig, and to be utterly cron- cons. The editors of that journal will excase our caution, hut extracts taken from tho “Coos Democrat” and Fourth or July orations make us very suspicious. As to tho reasons of our satisfaction with Mr. Buch&unu we cannot give better than wo sub join from the speech of Mr. J. Glancey Jones, of 1’enusylvntiiii, In Congress: I do not deem it necessary, Mr. Speaker, to go into an examination of the other allegations of my collouguo in reference to Mr. Uuchanau. So much Htress seems to have been laid upon the particular charge which I have just an swered that I thought tt worthy of this special notice. As to tho rest, I confess my astonish ment that my collcaguu should have deemed it necessary to refer to them. All such accusations ns these against Mr. Buchanan arc answered by thirty-six years of dcvotioti to the constitution of the United States. They are answered by the fact that, twenty years ago, in tho Senate of tho United States, lie was among the first Northern men to resist the inroads ot abolittouism. They are answered by his opposition to the circulation of insurrectionary documents thro’ the mails of the United States among the slaves of the South. They aro answered by his determined support of tho bill admitting Arkansas into the Ameri can Union. They are answered by his eloquent support of tho bill admitting Michigan iuto tho Union. They are answered by his early support of the annexation of Texas. Thoy aro answered by his persevering sup port of the fugitive slave law. They aro answered by his energetic efforts to effect the repeal of the law of the State of Penn sylvania denying to tho federal authorities the use of her prisons for tho detention ot fugitive slaves. They aro answered by his early aud unyield ing opposition to the wilmot proviso. They are answered by tho assaults which have been made upon him by Northern fana tics durlug more than a quarter of a century. 1 They aro answered by the encomiums of tue true aud national men of every section of the country, in which ho is repeatedly designated or “distinguished for his capacity—distinguish ed for his high attainments—distinguished for high eloquence, yet more distinguished still tor the pure morality of his life and the stern pa triotism of his character.” They are answered by tho fact that, while u member of Mr. Polk’s cabinet, against tho op position of funaticisiu, he proposed to extend the Missouri line to the Puciitc, amid tho delight and gratitude of national men of all parts of the Union. They arc auswered by every vote he guve in the American Congress on the question of slavery, und by tho fact that, of all Northern men, ue has been among the most prominent iu asscitiugaud defending a strict construction of the federal constitution. They are auswered by the contradiction which he placed upon tho compromise measures ot 1850, in the letter addressed by him in Novem ber of the same year to the people of Philadel phia, in which he declared that the compromise measures have superseded the Missoury line, or. to use his own lauguage, that that hue had “passed away,” which construction led iuevita- bfy to tbe adoption of the principles of popular sovereignty, embodied in tho Kansas-Nebraska bill. They are answered by the uatioual actiou of his State—a State memorable in the history of this question for its fidelity to the rights or the other States, a record with which he and Ids Irlends aro inseparably identified, Proceedings of Council, Ravanm.mi.

Sir ; Your communication of the lf»tli Inst., as Chairman of a Committee appointed by “ The Anti-Slavery Society of tho county of Erie, has jnst come to baud. You solicit my auswers to tne iollowing interrogatories: 1st. Do you believe that petitions to Congress on the subjeet of slavery und the slave trade ought to Ire received, read and respectfully con sidered, by the Representatives by the people ? 2nd. Are you opposed to tho annexation of Texas to the Union, under any circumstances, so long as slaves aro held therein V 3rd. Are you in favor of Congress exercising ail the Constitutional power it possesses, to abol ish tbe internal slavo trade between States? 1th. Are you in favor of immediate legislation for the abolition of slavery in the District of Columbia? I am much engaged, and have uo time to en ter Into argument, or to explain at length my reasons for my opinion. I snail therefore con tent myself, tor the present, by answering A LL yoor interrogatories in the AFFIRMATIVE, and leave for some future occasion a more ex tended discussion on the subject. * * * * Millaiid Fillmore. •For an explanation of this caption, the read er is referred to a long article which appeared iu the Savannah Republican of yesterday, head ed “Mr. Buchanan twenty years ago.” To us it seems far more important to know whut a candidate for the Presidency is now, tlmn what he was either twenty years ago, eighteen years ago, or even eighteen months ago. What Mr. Buchanan is now, wo know from bis frank and explicit endorsement of the ad mirable platform laid down at Cincinnati.

Death nv Bommajiiiulihm.-—'We learn Ironi the Andover Advertiser that on Wednesday ulght last, Mrs. Mary Cooper, wife of Edward Cooper of North Andover, came to her death under the following singular circumstances Mrs. Cooper retired to rest at an early hour with u young child.—Her husband went to ls.*d about nine o’clock, when his wifo partially awoke, and remarked that she had been dreaming of wash ing hard. Nothing more wus said, and all went to sleep. At about half-past eleven o’clock tho child cried, and Mr, Cooper called bis wife. On receiving no reply, lie immediately arose aud found she was gone. An ulaim was Immediate ly given, search made and her body was found at about midnight in the millpond of Hodges’ factory, back of the bouse, floating upon tho water some fifteen or twenty feet from the shore, face downwards. It appears tiiat Mrs. Cooper got up |very carefully and without a light passed down the collar, shutting tho doors alter uer, aud took a tub, washboard und pull to the water. Coroner Dr. Morse, of Lawrence, was called to view tho body but dhinot think best to bol l au inquest.

West.—Joint T.Myrick, of Jackeou, Elector; Lymau W. Rowley, of Escambia, Alternate. Elector. In ratifying the nomination of Mr. Fillmore, the Convention passed the following resolution; Resol red, That in presenting such a man to the American People, no plutform is, indeed, necessary. His administration of the Govern ment for three raemorablo years, is platform enough for reasonable men. Besides, it Is a part of history, that platforms made by conventions in times past for particular emergencies, soon cease to exert any binding influence, being dis regarded tho moment they were found in prac tice to Ire inconvenient. Reyuard having straggled iu vain to got the grapes, took the disappointment like a philoso pher, as lie was, comforting himself with tho io* flection that they were so sour, that no respecta* ble fox would touch them. Turned off from them with sovereign disgust! Our American friends have learned wisdom by ilia example. True, they struggled hard for their Philadelphia platform of 1855; aud hav ing obtained it, (at the expense, however, of a bolt on tho part of most of their Northern brethren) they lauded its twelfth section to the very skies. Truo, they raved, anil threatened and begged, and expostulated, when in the convention which nominated Fillmore, some one moved the repeal of that platform. Their efforts to save it having proved futile, who will not udmiro the indifference with which they now regard its loss, if not the positive pleasure it affords them to have gotten rid ot it V But stop! Are they without a plutform True, the old otic which asserted that Congress could not rightly legislate on the subject of slavery iu tbe States, or exclude a State from admission because of slavery, Ac. Ac., was strick en out. Was that all ? By no means. Another was substituted—another denying tho right of a slave State, only allowing it tho privilege of ad mission into the Union, ignoring the three prin cipal points of the 12th section, aud denouncing the administration for the repeal of the Mis souri Compromise—such was the substitute in troduced by a Free-Hoilcr from Illiuois, [wo quote from the letter of a member of the Convention] and adopted. And upon that platform, by act of the Convention uominuting them, stand Messrs. Fillmore and Donelson! So that our American friends are not after all without a plutform—such as it is. .Miua:ih;kvm.i.k, Ua., May 22.1856. Dour, Ac.—Yours or tho 20th hiBt. 1 received last evening.

But, sir, I have always held Unit promotion should follow seniority.

There is still another reasou why my mime snould not bo pressed for this high post. Tiie delegation of my own State, with which 1 cordially concur, have nlreudy presented tiie namo of one of her sons—a tried and able champion of tho Democracy—for this very of fice. I can never consent that ray niuuo should be placed in opposition to or my merits in corn- net ition with his. 1 beg, therefore, with grate- nil acknowledgments for tho high compliment ofibred me by the delegation from Louisiana that my name may lie withdrawn. [Great Applause.] Mr. Wilson, of South Carolina—Mr. President: In behalf of tiie delegation of South Carolina, 1 beg to present to the Convention the name of one of tho most distiuguised sons of the Old Dominion, whom genius, eloquence anil sound Democracy commend hiiu to the people ns the man for tbe high position for which we are now about to nominate tho candidate. Sir I allude to James A. Seddon. [Great Applause.] James A.Seddou, o« Virginia—Mr. President: I appreciate profoundly the honor conferred by the nomination just tin de, aud am especially gratified by tiie source whence it lias proceeded. To receive tho approving plaudit of tue 'gallant Percy of the South” is incsitinably grateful to my feelings, aiul till my heart’s last throb must be born in iudellble remembrance. I must how ever deelitio the nomination tendered, uud beg the honorable gentleman to withdraw my mime from tho candiducy. The Yirgiuia delegation, with my entire assent, have concurred iu the sentiment thnt, considering the circumstances under which she has acted and the position she has occupied in'relation to tho nomination for the Presidency, it would be more consistent with her dignity and honor, that no son of Iters be placed in nomination lor the Vico President Mr.Uuderwood,of Georgia—Mr. President: Biucc the government was established, Georgia luw had but threo Cabinet or executive offices in the Government, llcr recent brilliant tri umphs for the Democracy, give some claims to bo considered in the choice of the candidate for at least the sccoud office iu the Government. I will, therefore, present the uuiue of one of her sons who, in two of the severest political battles ever fought in tiie State, boro with hisstalwai t arm and dauntless heart tho flag of Democracy to glorious victory, that matt who had met one of the fiercest uml most dangerous factious tliut ever raised its gl int front in the land, aud sent it, howling buck to its den.
