cold Massachusetts. -

Time was when Massachusetts was look
up 10 as being cmincntly sound in religion
and morals, and evinced a reverence for the
laws Of the land. But that day has passed,
and she now reyels in Misunderstanding
les the constitution, the law, and even the
holy bible under foot. Her citizens, in q
private capacity, were not content 10 set the
laws Of the country at defiance; they hest
tate not TO steal their neighbors property
and Undue their hands in the blood of the
officers of the law who were sent to recov
err that property; they were swift 10 de-
nounce the Union as worthless; the morality
Of the bible as not applicable to this day
and generation-all this they have done,
and 10 crown the whole elected a Legisla-
ture which has carried out their views,
as far as possible.
They impeachcd Judge for dis charging
his sworn duty, in the rendition of fugi.
tive slave.
They appointed drunken committee who
invaded the privacy of lady's chamber
and insulted her.
They passed a law nulliiing the fugitive
slave law
And to crown their infamy, turned the Cap
ital into dram shop and bawdy- house, and
the members Keeling with drunkenness trav-
elled with their prostitutes, charging their
expenses to the State!
Alas for the Old Bay State! Alas for
the home of Webster! And yet these mis-
cradle sots and whore-mongers pirate about
the immortality Of slavery, and profess to be
governed by high and holy principles, in
their foroy against slave-owners. Their
fore-fathers held slaves as long as they were
profitable, yet these degenerate sons profess
to be actuated by conscientious motives,
while their lewdness is such as their sires
would have imprisoned and striped them
for.
We have hopes that there is yet some de-
cency and respect for the laws of the coun-
try in Massachusetts, and that the pro-
ceedngs of the late Legislature will arouse
the people OF the old Bay State, and elect
men who will vindicatc her name and fame
and wipe out the foul stain that Hiss and
his associates have left upon her escutch-
con.

A Diplomatic Rumor.

A Washington correspondent of the Buff
faIo Republic says diplomatic secret has
"leaked outs TO the efFec. that Ex-Presi-
dents Van Buren,, Tyler and Fillmore have
been commissioned TO mediate peace be-
tween the Allies and Russia. Putting this
and that together, the whole thing is made
out. Previous to the adjournment of Con-
gross, it is said, the Senate held an execu-
tive session, during which the matter was
discussed mt considerable length, and the
President finally advised, fin his Judgment,
the proper time should arrive during the va
cation of Congress, to offer the prop osed
meditation, and request the gentleman above
named TO hold themselves in readiness TO
proceed TO London, Paris or Vienna at short
notice, TO undertake the grave responsible
ty. Mr.. Van Buren, has been for long
time in Europe, Mr.. Fillmore sailed few
days since, and Mr.. Tyler will follow in the
next steamer. The place Of meetingis to be
somewhere on the continent where they arc
to deliberate upon ihe best means of bring
ing about peace between the belligerents. If
they succeed, Spain is TO be persuaded to
let us have Cuba.

Virginia Election.

The returns from the Virginia Election,
which took place last Thursday, are incom.
plete; but enough have been received TO in
dictate the election of Wise, Governor, by
about 5000 majority. The contest was be-
tween the Know Nothings and Democratic
party. 1t seems that triumphant, invincible
and invisible gentleman, SAM has met
with slight check in the old Dominion
He, however, made gallant fight, and tho
defeated, is by no means disgraced, as he
reduced the regular majority some ten thou
sand votes. He will doubtless find a good
excuse for his defeat, and will promis c
better things, when he gets older.
The returns are too imperfect 10 give this
week. In the I'd Congressional District,
Wilson is elected; Bird Caskie; 4th Goode;
9th Powell; 18th Kidwill; 9TH Smith. We

1.-the General Assembly of the Pres
byterian Church was in session in St. Louis,
during the whole of last week. They had
rather a warm debate on the slavery ques.
ton, and adopted report condemning the
Bible Revision movement. The Assembly
is well attended, from all parts of the Union,
and the citizens of St. Louis are veing
with each other in acts of hospitality. We
rather marvel that more deliberative bodies
do not occasional meet in the great metropo-
lie Of the west, as their annual meetings are
of migratory character.

Kansas Election.

The election in the contested Districts, in
Kansas Territory, came off last Tuesday
week, and resulted in favor ofthe pro-slave-
ry candidates. There was but little excite
ment or noise about the election, and we
presume the candidates elected will receive
their certificates without delay. The re-
suit of all the elections in Kansas have been
favorable othe pro-slavery interests, and
we presume the Legislature will meet and
Go its work in a manner satisfactory 10 all
parties. Slavery already exists in the Ter
ritory-the Legislature will see that proper
laws arc passed for the protection of both
master and slave, and the abolitionists will
have to look up new field for their opera
tions--perhaps Missouri, as is suggested by
m article in another part of this paper, ta-
ken from the Westport News. 1t would
look holder 10 settle in the enemies country,
and meet the evil where it has habitation

Trouble in Kansas.

A correspondent of the Republican, wri-
ting from lola, Kansas Territory, says:
The excitement consequent upon the muir.
der Of Malcolm Clark has died away. and
another has grown up in its stead. It APP
pears that Mr.. Kirby in jackson county
Missouri came over and located Il claim on
Marie de Seine, the South branch of the o.
sage river, and some twenty or thirty miles
from Lawrence. When he had finished his
cabin three men came to him and ordered
him of, saying that no Mssourians should
lone and had nothing but rifle. while they
had double barrelled guns, he thought eds
erection was the better part of valor," and
left. He went TO Jackson county and got
some twenty of his friends to accompany
HIM and returned; but, upon their arrival
they found their cabin filled and surrounded
by about fifty armed men. Thinking il not
prudent TO attack so large a party they re-
turned TO Missouri, and spread the news
through the border counties. Meetings
were held at Weston, Liberty and Indcpen-
dence, vand resolved that Mr. Kirby should
be protected in his right and that n force
'0"'' ~ '"''Sd " PluNc uuo uCICIIu nun Ill
the possession of his claim.
We hope there will be no blood shed, but
Mr.. Kirby has certainly been dealt with
harshly and unfairly, and should be protect
ed. He has as much right to claim in
Kansas as citizen Of Massachusetts. We
think the Abolitionlsts will come to their
senses before the forces reach there, and
will offer no resistance. If they presist III
their wrcng-doing they will be severely
punished. We are anxiously awaiting the
result.
The departure The friends of Mr.. Kir-
by was known some days since, and their
return has been anxiously looked for. We
understand the company was regularly or
ganized and under the command OF Captain
Jno. w. Reid. If resistance was offered
they expected to lay waste the town ofLaw-
rcnce-the headquarters of abolitonism.
