The burlington Sentinel has no word Of
rcbukc for the yilainies which have been and
are taking place in Kansas, is apparently
quito suited with the removal of Gov. Rcedcr,
and heartily approves the abuse of Justice
Law and humanity committed hy Judge
Kane, in the imprisonment Of Mr. Williamson
Of Philadelphia for no ollense against tho
laws Of God or man-thrcc things which
should awaken the Indignation Of every man
blessed with brains, heart and conscience.
Nevertheless the Sentinel h0' gricis deep,
bitter, and we fear unmitigable, which veil
its face in gloom and call out its wall Of sor-
row. The sad decline Of the Wing party,
and Of the Free Press under its present
management fairly touches it, "hiddcn iount
| Of tears 1t mourus over " the abandon

cherished principles of the Wing party, -
that PARTY which the S,nHad laborci =.
hard to build up, and sustained 80 heartily,
that noble party, brought to an untimcly enc
by the departure Of Cen. Clarke to Texas
Had the General only stayed, the FIRE. Pres
would not have run .. off the conservative
troc," and adopted the - insiduous policy
which has ruined the Wing party. Dca
General do come back We will resign tn
editorial chair, that you may rcsuscitote tn
Wing Party and thus restore to the N'ntiH,
its lost happiness.
