develop all the results produced by a heretofor,
free use Of calomel-a mineral justly dreaded by
mankind-and acknowledged to be Obstructive in

an admitted fact rendered indisputable by scien.

The Pills open the bowels and correct all bilious

Old Lineers and Prohibition.

1t is significant fact that the old
line state convention didn't happen to
know that there was such q question
us the temperance question in exist
ence. We learn that il was advised
to leave that question out Of the State
platform. and insert II in the county
platforms modified TO suit the several
localities. Where there are great
many foreigners, they are to oppose
the wine and beer clause. or oppose IL
altogether, rs the wise men in the
county think best. Where the ques-
ton of prohibition is popular. rs |. is
in all the northern counties, they are
to be in favor Of prohibition. On the
whole we think this a very wise sug-
gestion. for the anti-prohibitory reso-
luton last year was very fatal to that
party.

Preparing for it.

The person who composed the Mis-
souriKansas Legislature, seems TO ex
pect that Kansas will be Slave State
as q matter Of course. Hence bills for
the protection Of Slave property ARE in
trodubcd and passed. The latest
thing'in that lineis the following. which
was brought in by Mr.. Scott on the
Sd instant
SEorIos 1. That no person shall
keep or teach any school within this
Territory for the instruction OF slaves,
free negroes or mulattocs.
Sac. 2, No meeting or assembly OF
negroes or mulattoes for any purpose
OF religious worship. or for any other
purpoes shall be held or permitted
where the services are conducted by
slaves, free negroes or mulaltoes, un'
less sheriff. constable o, justice of the
peac Tor the county in which said meet
ing shall be held. shall be present du.
ring the time of such meeting, In order
to prevent sedi,ious speeches and dis
orderly couduet of all kinds.
SECS. All meeting Of slaves. free me-
groes and mulattoes for the purpose
mentioned in the two preceding see.
tons shall be deemed unlawful assem-
blies. and shall be suppressed by any
constable or other peace officers.
SEc4. No free negro or mulatto shal
under any pretext, emigrate TO this
Territory from any other Territor,
or State.
SIC, D. II any white person shall vi
olate any of the provisions of this act
he shall for every offence be punished
by fine and Imprisonment at the dis
erection of che court: il the offender b'
n free negro or mulatto he may b.
punished by like fine and imprison
ment, OF by stripes not exceeding ,hir
ty nine lashes.
On the same day Mr.. Anderson in
troduced bill concerning Jurors
The followingis the 18th section:
SEC. 10. No person who is conscien
tiously opposed to holding slaves. o
who does not admit tho right to hol,

squatter Sovereignty.

As Squatter Sovereignty is some
thing new under the sun, we shall try
to keep our readers appraised Of it's
workings. The latest development is
contained in the following from the
Missouri Democrat OF Aug. eeth;
The bill in regard to the electing OF
all territorialoilieer by the present
Legislature has become law. and
the two houses are now In joint ses-
sion for the purpose of carrying out
the elections. The list Of county Off
GERS to BE- filed under the net Is too
long for insertion. The following,
however. have been elected so far, to.
wit: lst district. Charles Grover, cd
district. III. A. Hutchinson. 81 dis.
trict. John b. Brady"
From this IL will be seen that the
bill whereby the Kansas Solons enae.
ted that all officers in the Territory foi
the term Of six years ensuing, should
be filled by the present Legislature,
has become law. and we are free
to say that q more infamous invasion
ofthe rights Of any people, a more un'
warranted assumption OF power no
delegated. was never perpetratcd by
any assembly that ever sat in even
revolutionary France.
Not content with legislating them
selves into Office in violation Of III,
orgsnic law Of the TerriIory-not sat
isfed with denying TO the inhabiiant
and citizens Of Kansas The constitu
tional rights Of free speech and FIRE,
press-but beyond and above all this
they now quietly inform the people
that they. the Legislature. will nov
undertake TO appoint Of their owl
free will and accord. the sheriIls. con
stables. attorney. tax assessors and al
local officers, not for the coming yea
or until an election can be held by tn
citizens. but for six years from thu
present time.

great ability could devise. Nothing

The subject was discussed ably in tho

Plain Talk

We like the plain talk of some of
the less judicious old line papers,
when they get a little mad ordina-
rily. the small fry editors never ven
ture anti they hear from the Jackso-
niaa. or the Cincinnati Enquirer. or
the Sentinel. But there are cases Of
emergency. that occasionally call for
speaking right out. Suchia case re-
Gently occurred in Evansville. The
Sag Nights mede nomination, few
weeks ago. for Justice Of the Peace.
ofcourse he was foreigner and a
Catholic, but in Evansville there are
two churches, and two priests--a
German and an Irish. The nominee
was an Irishman. This gave great
offense to their German brethren, and
they determined to set up for them
selves. AS the election was near nj
hand, Hall could not wa for an arti-
ticle from the Sentinel, or Jacksonian,
adapted to the occasion, so he pitch
ed in" on his own hook. and verified
the old adage. that fools and children
will tell the truth. Hear him:
"If they now bring out another
candidate it will secure the election of
Know Nothing Justice and il will be
the beginning Of split in tie Demo
cratic party here which will give the
city over to the enemy. and the terri
BILE consequences will rest upon the
few self-willed "rule or ruin," Red
Republican Germans. The rights of
all should be regarded-other people
should be allowed some privileges as
well as these disafIected Germans
The township, city or State does not
belong exclusively to them. They
have rights and no one of the Demo
cratic party will interfere with them in
any way. But we demand it as one
of the rights OF the Democratic party
that these men should vote the Demo-
cratic nominated ticket. We have a
right to these votes and will insist up
on having them. To Withhold them
will be violation of plighted faith"
That is US cool and as frank as any
body could desire. The contract be-
tween the Catholic Germans and the
Democratic party, requires--we can't
say what on the part of the Democra-
cy, but according to the Enquirer, il
requires "that these men should vote
the Democratic nominated ticket. -
See, he demands IL, as one Of The
rights ofMe party. We leave il foi
our readers TO Judge what the party
has consented 10 do, as an equivalent
for this surrender of the right Of pri.
vate judgement. on the part Of the
German Catholics of this country. II
is unquestionable that there is con-
tract between the parties, but what
the terms are. we cannot tell.
AS another instance of plain tall
when mad. and not influenced by Wis
er and more prudent heads, we Civ,
