those cities, may, in His mercy, speedily be

The Union publishes at length the able and
eloquent address Of the Hon. Ransom H. Gil
lett, delivered in this city on Constitution day;
and. in commenting on the proceedings of the
recent Kansas Free Soil Convention, says:
We have full account of the proceedings
Of the Free State Convention, which met at
Big Springs, in Kansas, on the 5th instant, as
published in the Herald Of Freedom. These
proceedings fully sustain the Geographic re-
ports which have been in circulation for sew
cral days. The legislative assembly was wholly
Regulated, and its entire action treated as null
and void. The ground on which this extraor-
binary proceeding is based is that the elections
for members fthe Legislature were controlled
by the violent and fOrcible interference Of cit
liens from Missouri. 1t strikes us as remark
able, that whilst the illegal and fOrcible inter-
ference of nOn-reSidents of Kansas is denounced
and resisted, the remedy by which the evil is
sought to be met is no less violent and revolt
iug than the proceedings of which they COM
plain. We confess that the acceptance of the
nomination for delegate by Gov. Reeder has
surprised US We had supposed that he would
decline to give his sanction to a mode of re-
dressing allege grievances which would ne
cesSariiy ideni fy him with the Free Soil sem
timent connected with the Kansas question,
and which is characterized by all the indica-
tions Of a revolutionary resistance of the or

Nothings desiring 10 retain them, and their
late allies to clutch them themselves. The
Wings, though up to this time they have hon.
ored and placed implicit confidence in Mr..
Rockwell, will do so no longer, as he has GER
tainly identified himself with their mortal DO
litical foe. The Republican press is hoping,
from the silence of the Boston Courier and
Advertiser, that the Wing State convention,
soon to meet, may adopt Mr.. r. But they
hope against hope; the particular purpose of
making Wing nomination at this time being
TO break the backbone of the project for
Northern sectional party, which Mr.. Rockwell
has been nominated only TO build up. We
have no doubt that if the Republicans smuggle
majority of their men into the approaching
Wing convention, to nominate Rockwell, as
will Of course be attempted, that the real
Wings will vote the straight-out Democratic
ticket at the election, to make assurance of his
defeat doubly sure. Such are the premises on
which we base our views Of the probability of
the success of the Democrats in the Massa-
chusetts election soon to come off,

Taken IN and Done For.-Governor Gardi-

past to cultivate the favor ofthe Abolition
spirit that pervades so large portion of the
people of Massachusetts,. Though on the up
rising of Know Nothingism he was the veriest
Hunker Of the Hunkerism las it is termed) of
his State. He has implicitly followed the lead
of bis fugleman, Senator Wilson; signing the
personal liberty bill, playing intense Adolf
ZIONIST at the Philadelphia Know National
convention, and declaring intense indignation
at the idea that he was not as true champion
of the cause of &c freedom, in the Abolition
sense Of the term, as any ultra Abolitionist f
Massachusetts. His purpose is now avowed to
have been to obtain the nomination Of the new
party. He has done his best to Abolitionise
the Know Nothings of Massachusetts,, as they
believe, to deceive them into again placing the
Know Nothings-proper in power there. So
long as he was thus playing into the hands Of
AbOlitiCnists, they pretended to swear by him,
But on coming to make their nominations re-
Gently at Worcester, they proved that he, not
