I Antiquity of the I. O. O. F.
"Wo find tliu following in an old English
paper, from a speouh delivered l>y Mr. Coop
er, at a meeting of tlie Order, of Greenock, 1
Scotland. Mr. Cooper ftaid : - <
4'Tlie origin of the Qfiifcr of ()d(i-'Kcllows I
i-? of very great antiquity. It was osial>- I
lished by the Koman soldiers in tin* camp i
during the reign of Nero, in the year 55.
At that timo they were "Fellow-Citizens."
The present name was given them by Titus
CiL'sar iu the year 79, from the singularity |
of their meeting, and from their knowing i
each other by night or day, and by tljeirji
| country. Ami lie not only gave them the 11
| name of Odd Kellows, l>utat tin: same time, i
as a pledge of friendship, presented them *
witli a dispensation, engraven on a plate of I
I gold, beating diUerent emblems, such as the I
sun, moon and stars, the lamb, the lion and ]
I the dove, and other emblems of mortality. |
i The lii*;t. account of the Order being 1
spread in other countries is in (he tilth ecu- ;
Utrv, when it was established in the Span- i
isli dominions, and in the sixth century by I
King Henry in Portugal, and in the eleventh I
century it was established in Franc, and afterward
by John I>e Xeville, in England !
attended l?y live Knighst from Francce, who
| formed a Loyal CJrand Lodge of lion- 1
j or in London, which Order remained until ;
i me iwciiui century, when :i part of them i
began to form themselves into a union, and '
a portion of them remain up to this day? <
the Lodges, which are now very numerous j
throughout the world, and call themselves (
th<k Loyal Ancient Odd Fellows, being a "1
portion of the original body- i
The Manchester Union is of a more le- i
cent date, although tbero is no doubt of its
emanating form the same source. Its first
introduction into Manchester was about the
year 1800, by a few individuafS^from the
Union in London, who farmed themselves
into a Lodge, and continued in connection
with them for some time, when some difference
caused them to declare themselves independent,
and thus have kept their work
independent."
From Texas.
A meeting was held in Houston on the
Gili, tor the purpose of raising men and '
means to aid Nicaragua. Resolutions, syin
pathising with the Walkcr-Rivaa Government,
and announcing attachment to the
Monroe doctrine, were adopted.
A letter to the Corpus Christi Advertiser,
dated Laredo, May 28, says: *?*
"On the 21st instant, the report reached
us that a part of red skin thieves were in
uur Mining, wii<jii six ci our most respec- i
tabic citizens started in pursuit, resolved to
do or die." Tliey came up with the Indinus
(fifteen in number) on the 24th, near
llonia, when and where a sharp and' sanguinary
engagement took place, which resulted
favorably to our party, notwithstanding
the disparity of numbers. Six Indians
were made to bite the dust?sent to the
spirit land?nnd thee others were taken
prisoners. ^ All the stolen property was also
recovered. Our party had one killed (Juan-'
Gonzales) and two severely wounded.
The Nacogdoches Courier, of the 3d
inst., says: ' .
Gen. Iiusk is still at home. He has had <
a very severe attack of illness since his return,
which together with the effect of the
sad bereavement ho has experienced will
prevent his early . return to Washington. ;

tho following:
Another meeting of the friends of Nicaragua
was held last night at tho Tremont :
House. We understood ten man, whose
expenses are defrayed by subscription, leave 1
on the steamer this evening for New
Orleans, cn route for Nicaragua, where they
will doTlbtless do good service.

jtfcu bcry Sun, 18ih inst.
Tlie Idler purporting to be from Gov.
Keller to Mr. Crow, which has just been
given to the world, contains a confession of
his own guilt and wrong, and that of the
party which he has so largely contributed
to mislead and seduce ii to rebellion and
treason in Kansas. Here is this precious
confession:
"As to putting a set of laws in operation
in opposition to the Territorial Governmentmy
opinion is confirmed instead of being
shaken. My predictions have all been verified
so faiy.and will be in the future. We
will be, ijqpTar as tl ie legality is concerned,
in the wrong, and that is no trifle in so critical
a state ot' things; and iipview of such
bloody consequences, it wijlbij nn invitation
to the 'powers to be' to bring down the
Missourians upon us, in tire assumed character
of vindicators of^the law. What con
sinuate tolly is there not in such amove?
Vott will have seen Pierce's message. Suppose
we had occupied the ground a wished,
of the mere adoption of the constitution
and the election of officers only, for the purpose
of applying for admission, what ground
would Pierce have to stand on, or how
much of his message would have Been ?
He is not the only man who is backward
and lukewarm towards us. For this reason
they say they cannot sustain us in the position
of resistance to the Territorial Government,
and you will find, I think, that Douglas
will also take that ground; but I
want you to understand me distinctly that I
do not talk thus publicly to our enemies.
I may speak my plain and private opinion
in letters to our friends in Kansas, for it is
my duty; hut to tjte public, as you will
see by my pulic letter, I show no divided
front." ^ ?
St. Louis, June 24.?A letter to the
Republican from Woatport, dated the 17th,
states that Col. Sumner, after driving out
I'uford, Jones, Shelby, and many men from
Missouri^ had blockaded the roads leading
into the Territory, and declared that no
more armed men should enter except over
dead .bodies of his trooj>s.
A^attepjpt had been made to assassinite

Philadelphia, Juc 18.?The lion. Juo.
Clias. Fremont was nominated by the Hlack i
Kepubublieans to-day on the first ballot .us i
their candidate for President. At an informal
ballot for Vice President, Dayton, of
Now Jersey, had 259 votes ; Lincoln, of
Illinois, 110; VVihnot, 43 ; Hanks, 20;
Sumner, 3:"); and scattering, 58. The
names of Messrs. Sumner, Wilson, Hanks
and Wilmot were then withdrawn, and
Mr. Dayton nominated on the first ballot as
the candidate of the party for Vice President.
The resolutions adopted eulogize the
Constitution and the Union?declare it the
duty of Congress to prohibit slavery in the
Territories?condemn the administration for
its persecutions in Kansas, favor the admission
of Kansas as a free Stale?favor the
Pacific rail road, river ahd'harbor improvements?and
extend general invitations to
all free State nvn to join hearts on terms of
perfect equality.
Significant Signs.?Among the significant
signs of the times is the fact, that everywhere
old Whigs who have maintained
an independent altitude hitherto, declare
their determination to support the Democratic.
]'residential ticket. In this city (says
the Detroit Free Press) and throtlgh the
State wc have already heard of many such.
The Huston Courier says :
"The 1 )emoerats of our city ami State,
Hin] of all tlie New Kngland States, including
New Hampshire, receive tlie nomination
of ^1 r. liuchanan for the oflice of
President, witli the most exulting exhibitions
of joy ami satisfaction. We hear
some open ami straight old fashioned Whigs
say that they will vote for liini."
N.-w York, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts,
Kentucky, Ohio, and Missouri papers bring
us similar positive intelligence. In all quarters
the movement is formidable.? Union.

We clip the following from the Louisville
Courier, a influential old Whig paper :
UT!.,. CM c\r\i\ l ...? .n- -. 1 ?l-- rt _
ft hi; v i,wv uiu:n:u in iiiu V/Uiiriei a
f?i\v days since, that Kentucky would vote
for Buchanan and Breckenridgo in November
next, lias not yet been'taken. We now
have still fnrlher inducements to offer. We
will pay ?50 in gold to the person who will
accept the proposition nnd 'put up the money,
or the. same amount to any one who
will bring such a customer to this office.
Here's a glorious chance for sanguine Iv.
X.'s to invest."
A Bad Witness.?The witness who went
North and made the statement that lie saw
Mr. Keitt standing near, during the Sumtier
assault with a pistol under his coat is
thus noticed byHhe Providence (II. I.) Post:
The Dr. 1'unting who makes the statement
is an imposter, swindler and villian,
altogether too well known in this city to
need an extended notice from us. We expect
to hear of him next, ns "Lieutenant
Colonel" Bunting, direct from Kansas,
where he was an eye witness of the "burning
of Lawrence!"

British Government, it is said, lately made
largo contracts for Sharp's ritles with some
of our manufacturers, and the manufacture
of them by American mechanics at Edgefield,
England, is now being carried on under
a tremendous press of steam to supply
the army as soon as possible.
Smithers says lie always travels with a
"sulkey"?that is, he always goes with his
wife, who contrives to ho obstinate and out
of humor from the time they leave home
till they get where they are going to. The

when he broke his ankle.
