Now that we do see it, in its full force

cuous multitude of voices joined in
them. Thirty.fve or forty young

end signor the entertainment was

freshness Of springtime to celebrate

says:
IF the performances we're intended
to crafty the audience in return
for the valuable consideration paid
for admittance. it was due to it that
the singers should have been selected
arranged, andolassi6ed to that end"

This low, corrupt, and infamous Aboli-
ton print has become so utterly lost to all
sense Of honesty. truth and justice. that its
contents inyariably embrace the vilest and
most malicious fabricasions ever perpetra-
teddy man. It's only delight seems to be
Ito.misrepresent, calumniate and villify the
innocent, and defend, screen and protect
| the guilty.
In its last issue. in column or more of
| silly talk about recent meetings and occur
rences in this city, it says:
Kyle, of the Leayenwortn Hotel, dis
charged this fellow Lyle, as we are told,
on account of his connection with the dis
graceful affair, OBTAINING a lot of books for
board, when Lyle collected few of his
| friends, visited the Hotel at IL o'clock at
night, and finding Kyle alone, commenced
an attack upon him, but was prevented
from doing material damage by the inter-
| ference of his wife,"
The above is unequivocally false. MIR.
Lyle has not boarded at the Leavenworth
House for two months past. He owes
Kyle nothing-not even red cent and
his books were not held for debt, as al
legged by the Tribune, but were kindly
loaneda a friend stopping atthe house. Mr..
Lyle did not commence an attack on Kyle,
but on the other hand Kyle grossly and
unwarrantably insulted Mr.. Lyle.
Mr.. Lyle acted in every way becoming

ing that every one who witnessed the. dis
pute Abolitionists excepted) will unhesi.
tatingly affirm that Mr.. Lyle acted only

The Tribune speaks of MIR. Lyle as
s that fellow Lyle" that notorious fellow
Lyle" &C., Sc. Mr.. Lyle's reputation
is too firmly substantiated, his character
unsurpassed for morality and integrity
too generally known, to sustain any injury
from such slanderous charges. Abuse and
vituperation from so low and contemplate
a source can only commend Mr.. Lyle in
the estimation of all honest and upright
men. Mr.. Lyle is young man of fine
sterling qualities, decided ability, and j:
highly esteemed by all who personally
know him. He is true Southern man

the south side of the Kansas river, opposite
the mouth of the Grasshopper river. 1t is
beautifully situated and is surrounded by
undoubtedly the best and heaviest timbered
country in Kansas. From the centrality of
Lecompton, we think, it must eventually be-
come the Territorial Seat of Government.
For more detailed information, we refer

brace some future occasion to speak further

Baker the .Nag7.d .de2.e9. Can
LaEYed.

From the New York Herald of the 18th
ult., we learn that the clipper GRAPEsHer,
that was dispatched from that por: on the
10th of March last, in pursuit of the brig IsA-
BELLE JEwETr upon which it was suppos-
ed Louis Baker, the brutal murderer of
Bill Poole, had embarked, has returned
having captured the fugitive Baker. The
brig Isabella Jewett was overhauled Just
as she was entering the port OF Palmos,
Grand Canary Islands. Baker was readily
gwen up by the officers of the brig, who
expressed great surprise at hearing he was
murderer, fact of which they were to-
tally unconscious. The most tremendous ex-
citement prevails in New York which is
not greatly to be wondered when it is re.
collected with what great-almost regal
pomp the obsequies of Bill Poole!!! were
attended. The prisoner is said to look well,
and as he is man of worldwide notoriety;
we annex the following description of his
person, taken from the New York Herald.
The Herald says:-
Baker is large, heavy man, about five:
feet nine inches in height. broad chest, is
about thirty-five years of age, and weighs
about 200 pounds. He is a light COM
plexioned man, with a large head, and
brown hair, inclined to curl. When our re-
porter saw him. yesterday, he wore large
heavy whiskers, seemed much sun burnt,
and altogether had the appearance of a
sailor just arrived from long voyage. He
has expressed no opinion relative to the
probable result of his trial for murder, al.
though he declares that. should justice be
done, he would be acquitted on the ground
of self-defence. 80 sg

Coo. ReetJe1. Laughed .gt.

Gov. Reeder's recent visit to Was hing
ton seems to have elected no other sensa-
ton from the Administration and Cabinet
than that of derision and contempt. His
proposition of a general military force to
Z" protect him from tine lawless violence of
border ruffians of Missouri seems to meet
with no favor in Washington. The return
of Reeder is now thought matter of con-
siderable question, inasmuch as he has
been refused the " body guard" Itseems
that Reeder also urged the dissolution of
the Territorial Legislature at the hands of
the President, though he has granted GER
tifcates of election to a majority of its
members. Strange and foolish man that
Reeder!
>s' Governor REEDER has disappeared like
a mist from Washington gone, but no one
knowing exactly how or when. 1t IS be-
lieved that the President has determined
to continue him in Office, but declines the
military force asked to protect him against
the Missouri invaders. Without this
force it is doubtful if Reeder will return to
the Territory. His proposition to have the
Legislature of the Territory dissolved, and
another election ordered, was source of
great amusement with several members of
the Cabinet. The law requires eachmem-
ber of the Territorial Legislature to have
certificate from the Governor that he was
duly and properly elected. Reeder was
asked if the members of the Kansas Leg
Iislature held such certificates, and if SO,
from whom? Here was predicament.-
| He had, under the solemnity of an official
oath, certified these very men to have been
duly elected. Now, under the heat of
passion and excitement, he denounces the
election as an outrage upon the Territory.
Which are we to credit, his official acts or
his hustings speech?
