A Cock and Bull Story.

The last Leavenworth Herald has ter
rifle tale to tell, how a renegade New
Yorker, who was formerly the editor oil
that paper, had been treated recently al
Manhattan, near the mouth of the Bic
Blue; and calls upon pro-slavery men
to rally, hold meetings and come to the
rescue of Mr.. Osborn. It closes by
saying:
'.Let the vile, dishonest and infamous
abolitionists be made to know that they
are not, as yet, or never will be, masters
of the virgin soil of Kansas %
We know nothing about the facts in
this case, but we do knoaO that our friends
at Manhatten are a law-abiding people,
and We believe the whole statement of
osborn's to be a fabrication to get up
pro-slavery sympathy in his behalf.
There are persons who would not hest
tate to light the fires of civil discord, if
they could only gain little notoriety in
the movement.
The Kansas herald of freedom., 1855-06-23
ouietus upon the Press.

" we further say-thatthe people hao-
ing determined hat Kn1sds shdU become
a siaue State, will probably put quietas
upon abolition presses in Kansas Terrific
,ry. The " freedom of the press" is not
for traitors and incendiaries, but for those
combining themselves within the bounds
of the Constitution and the laws and no
bravado, no threats or challenges of any
character whatever, will drive the people
of the south from their midst, men dan
gerous to their constitutional rights and
liberties"
We clip the above from long article
in the Platte, Mo-, Argus, headed " Free
soil Editors in Trouble" If the Argus
ranks the HERALD OF FREEDOM as an alb
clifton press, very well but we warn our
contemporary that it may not be so easy
a matter to quiet the press as he sup
poses. One destroyed will give life to a

Renegades Returning.

on late trip to st. Louis, writing from
the steamer Polar Star, among other
statements not very flattering to return
ing emigrants, makes the following re-
port:

sylvania freesoiler, that he did not care

ID Its prospects; that he believed the
soil OF Kansas was better adapted for
slave labor than free; that it required
more capital to improve the lands than

of his kind, vino are now on their way

themselves known, and will expose the

with those effected soeasily By the .eelix-
