Fwarn tie Detriot Free Frees. Freraoct and Knew Yothinei-m. If the slightest doubt hae existed with regard to Fremont's complicity avitti Know-Nothingism, that doubt is dispelled. The Know-Nothing Con voli tion which assembled at New York and nominated Hanks and Johnson, and then adjourned over to * From the Washington Union. Premeditated treason—the real issue—Union or Disunion. When Mr Sumner closed bis r cent speech in i the Senate, the venerable patriot and statesman L< wis Cass, ruse and pronounced it “ the most un- peels. except its rhetoric A styi*-, Mr. Sumners speech has a fit parallel in an elaborate editorial article on the “ Presidency, ” in the New York Courier and Enouiier of the 26th instant. No one who is not blind with fanaticism, or deliberately bent on tlice disruption of the Union can read the two first paragraphs without feeling flint be is reading the reckless threats of a hearth ss incendiary, or Ihe deliberate purposes ol a confirm ed traitor. We quote then:: 1 III- i UESIDEXry..—Y\ hoover is capable of r n*en ng upon national affairs, is («mpolled to nd- :nt. bat we have approached a crisis in the nation’s bis ory that has never occurred before. We ue it: ■ leniids. of a revolution, ihe origin of which is sectional.and ns avow , d object to gratify the gra“p- ing ambition of the sinv. novel ; and u civil wai waged in behall of fr-edom, and in resistance of slavery extension, is a titling acvonipaniin lit of an I attempt on the part of the .Nuith and their co-labo- I rers ot the Nur;h, to trample on the principles and guarantees id the constitution. by the extension ot i slavery into free territory through the direct legis- i latiou ot llic general government. “'i hat such is precisely tl e slat • of the country no honest and intelligent man will deny admitted, the remedy is s.tuple at;,’ I. . ■ .. „ .<■ ,i., I ,■> I patriotic and nn-Amer:ean speech everdeliveieu in await the action of the Biack Republicans atl’hii- ii,at bmlv ” „j, ' ■ - adelphia, niaasciiibled on Friday, aud. Hanks hav- " ing declined, nominated Fremont. Of the event, the Neyv York Herald of Saturday says: 1 iie sudden change which has taken place in the sentiments of the Convention in regied to Mr 1 remnnt is attributable to the fact that that gen tleman yyas waited on last night by a delegation lrom this party, yyith whom he had a long and earnest confabulation, extending into the small hours of the morning—that lie tin n and there de clared himself unreserved* 1 ]y jn favor of the prin ciples of the Know-Nothing party, and would give them his entire and cordial adherence, and iliat lie was p-rfectly convinced that if ho did not receive the support of the American party throughout the Union, he had not the slightest piospect ut being elected.” It will be recollected that the balloting which resulted in the nomination of Banks exhibited the fee* that Fremont was the second choice of the know-nothing 1 convention. Doubtless had the my-tuber*been as well assured ot bis sympathy with an iplbrsion to know c-thingism in the oiit- «-t as they were at the interview mentioned by the ilerabl, he w ould have been its lirst choice. Thus, the amalgamation b-twe n northern know-nothingism and black repuhlicauiam is tho rough and complete, so far as the presidential Can dida's is concerned. Tliespiit on the vice president is but a tempoary affair L'he know-nothings de fad d to adhere to Johnston, hut he will be, with drawn st the moment that shall be deetird most c >nuucive to the interests i f the common opposi tion. 7 ue spirit by whichthe know-nothing convention was animated in ratifying tlie nouiinatior. of 1 rc- 713011; may be gilbered from the speeches of mem bers, as reported by th** Neyv York papers, Mr. Mott, ofNeov York, said: ‘‘.Vs Americans they had endeavored to | ut in nomination loot.>re tiie p.opj,. such can busies as the Am, riean party could support, 'l in y had nominated Mr. lianks for their President. He had now withdrawn from the contest. He was the first choice of tiie convention, and lie tliouglit iliat upon him they could have rallied the North so as to have carried lnm into the presidential chair if he had received the nomination at Philadelphia.— [A^piause j Bnt he had failed to receive the en dorsement of the republican parly. Who has then th next choice of the convention? Colonel Fre mont, he considered, was their next choice. [Ap plause.] They lost nothing in principle by being driveB to the necessity of parting jn nomination Colonel Fremont, who was their second choice. [Applause.] If this convention had been assured that Mr. Banks would not have accepted their nomination, he was bold to say that they would have nominated Colonel Fremont. [Applause ] Ex-Lieatenatit Governor Ford, of Ohio who sought to give the presidential election thecomplex- ioii of a contest of religious creeds, said: “This hydra headed monster of Poperv yvas driven out in California, and the Standard of l’ro- t stnutism ere; ted upon its soil, by tile bands of this same Co! Fremont.” Mr. Perkins, of Connecticut, it appears to us, yvas not very discreet, lie undertook to make it out tbit the republicans had nominated a man lor 1* -admit who does not belong to the republican par v. .Said lie: “Mr Fremont belongs to no party: he is not a Urhniceri member of the republican party: but be represents the principles of both, and, therefore, is just the man for the American party in ils plan of opposition to foreign dominion and domestic ty ranny in this country. ” Mr. Waterbary, of New York, said : “ He had voted for John C. Fremont first in this convention. He had looked on matters as they stood, and liaJ rather ride on the waves than be overwhelmed by them. Some Americans outside had i xpressed their fear of this party being mv,al lowed up by the Republicans. [No. no. ] For his part he yvas ready to unite with any party which would overthrow the Democracy. ” [Cheers.] Tiiis is enough. We need not quote further to establish ihe fact that Fremont, at the intervieav inentioned by the Herald, committed himself to the Kuoyv Nothings m their entire satisfaction. lie is, beyond all question, pledged to their proscriptive pnqost-s—pledged, in the event of his election, to appoint no persons of foreign birth to office, and to recommend such an amendment to the naturaliza tion laws as will abridge the political privileges of naturalized citizens. 'I h it hfemonc should thus join hints.-If to the party of Know Nothingism si*eins to us monstrous, wh -n we recall the attested fact that he is himself ihe son of a foreigner. His father yvas a Frenchman who emigrated to this country at the age of man hood. Fremont would disfranchise ais own father were his father alive ! A Komelrss \ation. The present generation live on the side walk. The ladies pay twenty-five dol lars for a bonnet to adorn Broadway, and they sweep the pavements with the costliest silks. ()ur sole aim now is create a sensa tion at the hotel or hoarding house table. Our flirtations are carried on iii Broadway, en promenade and our yonng and blushing brides commence their honeymoon in a steamer. We no longer live for ourselves j and for the calm enjoyments of the family i circle; we only exist to show our neighbors how very fine we can be. We live in fact not to please ourselves, but to astonish ihe Browns.

This living in public in addition to the laxity of personal morality it engenders, will also lead to an extravagance which wili produce, two enormous classes of Society, the distinctions in which will he, simply master and serf—tyrant and slave!

The Banks and Johnson met: then sent a committee from their convention in New York, to Philadelphia, to Ix-g the Black Republican to take their candidates, and thus make a common cause. This was at once refused. They then beg ged for the Vice, if they could not have both, and this was flatly refused. They then asked for an alteration of their platform, so as to let them come upon it—but even this was denied, and the roiu- mittee, after being thus kicked off the platform, j the American Government that leads it the other returned to New York, like whipped spaniels, with j w ay.

It is this which brings the eminent loaders of tiie late Whig party, everyw here into such hearty and zen ous support of the Cincinnati nominations. To Mr Buchanan tire great interests of capital and labor can bo committed with unwavering confidence To Iris keeping the best interests of the farmer and man ufacturer cau be intrusted without the remotest suspicion of danger. The country needs safety; its whole interests demand protection—protection under the aegis of the Constitution. -Capital demands protection against the fluctuations of fanaticism.

During the war of 1812, a man with a good deal of bluster, waited upon President Madison, and asked for a General’s commission in the army. The President informed him that there were no vacancies in that grade. “Well, then,” said the applicant, “I don’t care if I take a Union i’» com mission.” But here again the line was full, as the President informed him “Give m. a Major’s commission,'’ said the applicant, bn full there a'so.

The Position of the German Papets. NA e see in the Globe of yesterday a statement t.iat “the New York Post claims all the leading aerinan papers of the West are in favor of the nomination of Fremont.” This statement is pro bably put forth upon the strength of the notice given by the Cincinnati Gazette of the Kith in stant, of a meeting at Cincinnati the previous evening of ten editors of the German papers of th? \\ est. representing, as it was said, 7(»,iMiO sub scribers, and pledging themselves to-support the nominees for President and Vice President of the United States to be made by the Black Republican Convention in Philadelphia. An intelligent Ger man assures us that there was not one of the leading German papers of the West connected with that movement; and, in fact, that there is not one government on the footstool, that our entire community lias been ex cited and alarmed for our safety. Day by day we have been told of the coming storm, and week by week informed tiiat our wicked rulers w ere plot ting our destruction; monied men have withheld their money front new enteiprises, and tbe com mercial community lias been kept in a state o! high fover and aiarm from the beginning to the end of tlieyear. To say that the leading newspapers of this city, and tliai r Wasniugton reporters, who have predicted and reported ail sorts of vague prophesies and rumors regarding our foreign rela tions, have caused all this, is saying only what every candid man knows to be true, yet tbe papers are still earnest in tlu-.ir efforts to fasten it all itjion the administration.'

We are glad that Messrs. Dixon and Powell have enlisted in tiie canvass. They possess not only great personal popularity, but are about the most effective stump speak' rs in Kentucky.— When ver they appear they will cany great weight with them.

Tiie bailie in Kentucky its.s now fairly begun, and we feel certain that t* e issue under tio con tingency is doubtful. It will be impossible tor Kentuckians to throwaway their votes upon a forlorn candidate; and being assured, as they will bo by the events ot this week, of the desperate de termination of the northern anti slavery forces to unite upon one man, they can no longer hesitate to select the candidates of that pari v induhiltably sound upon tlie vexed qu stion o' .slavery, and not onlv sound, but strong in ail sections.

In the course of a long, able, and withering re ply to the oft-refuted slanders ill regard to the fed eralism of Mr. Buchanan, the New York Day Book says: “Now, the truth is. Mr Biichaii.au never was a federalist in the true sens e of that term. A fed eralist was an opposor of the war of 181*2: Mr. Bu chanan supported the war by his own good sword. Mr. Buchanan was elected to Congress the lirst time in 182.1, and as a supporter of Mr. Monroe’s administration; yet as this administration was sup ported hy the federalists, the Clintonians. and Democrats, it gives his enemies a chance to sav he was a federalist. The true way to determine what he was is to go to the record. Did he sup port federal or whig measures? Did he favor a strict or liberal construction of the constitution? By their fruits ye shall know them. Now almost the first speech (and a most able one it was) Mr. Buchanan made on the floor of Congress was in ojijtositioii to a bankrupt law. Iu this speech he showed its injustice to the laboring classses, awd its wrong in granting special privileges to the few. “Upon other questions his record is equally democratic. Party lines then were not draw n. The old federal party bad forsaken its principles, and made pretensions to the 'e.ara of good feeling,’ as it was called.
