TIE CABINET AVID KANSAS.

At the time Of the passage Of the Kansas Ne
brssks bill, TIE President and his Cabinet were
freely accused Of 8 conspiracy for the iasroduc-
ton Of Slavery into Kansas Though this was
not Acknowledged by the parties charged, and
though many OF tie Northern meubers of Con.
gress, who, for reasons OF their own, public or
private gave their support to that bill-indg
nantly denied it-irsi.tiBg that Slavery never
would go into that country and that il was use
less 10 guard by Law against what God and nature
made ippossible-still the accusation was sup
ported by many pregnant circumstances, which
the whole course OF occurrences siIce has tended
TO develop ITO positive proos. Aud at lss matters
are brought 70 such pass that the Administra-
tion mus. either, by they acts, plead guilty 10
the charge sad acknowledge thsir completely as
well ia tie subsequent prosecution as in the orr

Filhbustsrs, or else must take positive and de-
cisiye measures for the protection OF the settlers
in Kansas against the grossest violation Of private
and political Iigbts which this cOuntry has ever
witnessed. Il remains TO De seen whether, hsv-
ing originally Endorsed Douglas, the President is
now ready TO indorse Atchiscn also; and whether,
having gone with Douglas in opening Kansas to
the Shareholders under the shallow, empty and
iupudent prettnse Of squatser soyereigniy-im-

The MALs.-The mails are about as COM
mon subject of remark or complaint as the
weather. Everybody is interested. How hap
pens it that Perrysburg is cut off and entire
ly deprived of any mail over the w. R. &
Maumee road By late change no mail
whatever leaves here in the direction of Ere
mont. This is serious Inconvenience, to
both the people Of this place and those
along the road. A mail is sent up to Stony
Ridge P. o., from Fremont, three times
week. but comes no further If curtail-
ment of service on this route was desirable,
why not reduce the trips to once or twice
week, from Fremont to Perrysburg? This
would be fair. AS it is, it looks like piece
of petty management by somebody at Fre-
mont to advance that town and annoy and
injure this. We hope somebody, whose busi-
ness it is, and who has influence with the
department, will see that this abuse is cor
rected soon.

Gs-This is the first year that we have ever
known the locofoco editors of Ohio to take
deep interest in the nomination of whig
candidates for office. They published the
call for the state convention at Columbus to
nominate candidate for governor, scattered
handbills broadcast, published the proceed
ings of the convention in the most conspic-
uous part of their papers, and are doing all
they can to help along " the whig party"
What disinterested patriots How wonder
fully whiggery has improved in their estima-
tion within short time A few months
ago no word was vile enough to express their
detestation of whiggery; now they are its
special, its only advocates and upholders.
They have no hope of getting old wings to
vote for Medill, but think if they can be in
duced to throw away their votes On Trimble
it will do just as we'll by bstracting so much
from Chase's vote. We don't know of man
in this part of the state who will crafty
