Notwithstanding Judge Lcland's positive
refusal, two weeks ago, to be run as can
didate for the supreme bench against Judge
CAroS, and tho publication of his letter to
that effect in the Chicago Tribune, that jour
nal continued his name at the head of its
columns and urged his election as the anti
slavery candidate, or, rather, anti-iugitivc
law candidate, leaving room for the infer
encc that, while Judge l.. ostcnsibly de-
clined the candidacy, there yet existed a
sort Of private understanding that he was to
DO voted for. To dissipate all grounds for
such suspicion, Judge L. has been obliged
to write a second letter TO tho Tribune, de-
Ginning the gratutous nomination, so that tho
editor has concluded to haul DON his name,
and announces thcroupon that ere are now
left without candidate" 1t is a matter OF
very little consequence, we imagine, whom
the great T" We" of the Tribune vote for, but
IL its peculiar IDEAS of what should consti-
tutc the qualifications of Judge of our SUI
preme court are to be met, we doubt whcth-
or 1t would find Judge l.. any more than
Judge Cation to its taste. ...

character Of the late King Of tho Sandwich

the population is generally as sober and mo-

More Outra.es i'm Kansas.

The st. Louis papers bring accounts OF
further outIagcs in Kansas, the most nota-
bic Of which is the lynchiug Of a man named
Phillips, resident of Leayenworth, who
was taken 10y the Missouri ruliians across the
river TO Weston, and there tarred ana featli-
cred The only offence Of which Phillips
appears 10 have been guilty was that he de-
clared himself in favor Of making free
state Of Kansas, and that he should always
vote accordingly. To justify the outrage,
however, the additional charge was trumped
up against him, that lac had handed McCrca
Il pistol, who, in an ailiay iew weeks ago.
had in solf.defcnce shot u man named Nal
colin Clark. Phillips had left LeayeLworth
until the excitement growing out Of the
shooting of Clark should subsde, but on re-
ceiyng notice never again to come back, he
at once returned to LcayenwUrth, when he
was seized, locked up and threatened with Il
coat of tar and feathers, unless he left Kan
Sas forever This he refused to do, when he
was carried to the Missouri side Of the river
---tarrcd and fcathorod--rOdo upon rail
and finally sold at mock auction by a negro
auctionccr $40.
A correspondent Of the st. Louis Demo
crat, says:
San eye witness told me that Phillips was
calm and firm through all this ordeal, and
still declared that he would live in Leaven-
worth until il suited him to leave. lie posi-
lively denied having given the pistol to Nc
Crca to shoot Clark. He said he was no alb
oiitionist, but u ircesoilcr that he was in
favor OF Kansas being u free State, and
would vote to make it SO. Be he abDlitionist
or not, one thing is certain, and that is, he
is a remarkably resolute man. do not pre-
tend to be able to form conclusion as to
how these proceedings will terminate"
The last we have heard Of Phillips was
that he was stn in Lcaycnworth, engaged in
casting bullets
If We are not mistaken, this Phillips is no
other than VIM. Phillips, young lawyer,
who cmigratcd from Ottawa to Kansas last
fall, and fixed his resdc' &C at Lcayen-
Nulti' IL HS 10 tuS hihh, We iidNC Nv H'oi
fancy in saying he is the victim Of n most
unjust and yilainous outrage. During his re.
sidcncc in Ottawa, he had maintained such a
reputation for uprightness, spotless iutcgii.
ty, and every ennoblng, manly quality as
few young men among us have enjoyed.
That he was frecsoier we believe is unde-
niablc, and that he will defend his right Of
free thought and speech to tho point of death
those who know him, also need not be assn
rcd. But that lie could ever be guilty Of
any offence to deserve such treatment az ho
has received, it will take better evidence
than the oaths or assevcrations Of ten thou
sand Missouri ruilians ever to convince this
community.
