will mourn to think how her trust has been
ruthlessly shattered. Pennsylvania will not
stand aIonein the rebukc to be uttered around
her will cluster many of her sister States until
that administration which was borne into
power upon the topmost wave of the popular
will, will sink SO low that there will be none
so poor to do it reverence AS its death will
be that of the suicide, there will neither be
the mOckery of mourners nor the burlesque OF
funeral. 1t does seem passing strange, that
so far forgetful of the place of his birth, his
youth and his manhood, forgetful of the great
free North, it was a forgone conclusion in the
mind of the President that in all defiance of
whatever might be the voice of her people,
Kansas was to be doomed to slavery. And to
what other conclusion, must we come The
deplorable scenes witnessed at every election
district when members of the territorial legis-
lature were chosen, are sadly familiar where
ever the expression of an unshackled press has
been heard The pcaceable citizens were over
awed in the exercises of the most sacred prerOg-
atiye of a freeman, by the presence and most
unlawful interference of armed ruftians, the
spawn of an adjoining State. Where civiiza-
ton is, that element of political justice, as
enunciated by Goodwin is recognized to be a
truism that d" to endeavor to impose our
sentiments by force is the most deteStable
species of persecution" And what other than
this were the high-handed proceedings of the
Missouri mob They were not content that
those who had alone the right should determine
for themselves under the law their own institu-
tons, but by violence were sentiments other
than their own to be forced upon Kansas
settlers Earnestly did the press of our land
inveigh against an outrage so monstrous, and a
burning spirit of Indignation was kindled in the
breast of every man whose sense of justice was
unclouded And withal, our President has
cast his official infuence-and we are gratfed
that it has grown so small-with the law
defers
Although another of Pennsylyania's gifted
sons is called to be the successor of Gov. .REEDER,
it affords no consolation 1t brings not ray
of light through the thick darkness of her
regrets Her sorrow is too deep in the removal
of one animated by high feeling of truth and
justice to find any joy in the very doubtful
honor paid to another But the voice of the
Keystone State will make itself clearly heard
Blind giant as she is, her cry will come up
throughout her extended borders for vengeance
Let him upon whose head it falls beware And
well too does she know how to reward heI
faithful Her son, so fouIly treated when in
the noble discharge of duty as the Executive
in newly hedged territory, may yet act
as the honored Executive of the State
second in wealth, power and population, Oh
represent her interests in the Senate of the
nation. The once rejected minister plenipo
tentiary became the President of the United
States. The lesson has not lost its meaning
A homily of like import may yet be read to al
administration upon whose frontlet its OWL
faulty has written DOOMED"
