"that few days since cask was deposited from
Freight Train al the Depot in Canton, Stark Co.
with the simple direction "Canton," upon it.
This singular and inexplicible direction led to M
examination. The cask was found to be filled
with pistols and bowio knives. Every thing was
carefully replaced, to see who would call for a
package with such unusual contents. In a short
time Cathlic Priest called, claimed and carried
away the cask."
The following which is furnished US by friend
residing at Canton, shows that the article is a
base fabrication from beginning to end, without
a single redeeming quality of truth about it.
Now | hereby certify, that to my knowledge
there was no such Cask deposited at the. Canton
Depot, simply marked "Canton" and upon the
other hand it is utterly false and untrue, that any
such examination too place here at the Canton

Is 564. Now, does that show much of a chance
for establishing slavery in Kansas, even if the
question Of the settlement were to be left alone
to the people of Missouri! But suppose the whole
slave population Of those seventeen counties
should move over into Kansas, yet year will
scarcely roll round before the swelling tide Of
emigration from all parts of the north would, as
Col Benton says, expel slavery from Kansas.
