KANsAs.-We have never believed in the
glowing reports set forth by aid societies and
other interested parties MS to the future of
Kansas. II looks dark enough now, and the
present disturbances will check emigration for
tho present. Those who desire to 90 should
wait little. The matter will soon come be-
fore Congress, and it must be settled. The
present imbecIe administration, which is
alone responsible for the terrible state of
things in Kansas, has not long to live, and it
is to be hoped that our next President may
be favored with backbone and brains enough
to execute the laws without respect TO per-
sons. Mr.. Pierce can lombard Grcytown,
bully Denmark, or lock up from fhe eager
hands of newspaper agents his precious Mes.
sage, but he cannot restrain handful Of fel
lows who aro outraging the laws on our
Western borders. 1t is to be hoped that
Congress will force the executive to do some
thing. The country has had enomgh of
"mastery inactivity"

action. In the House, the proposition to en-
dorse the Memphis Bonds to build the Little
Rock Railroad, consumed the day-sever
al members addressed the House, some for
and others against the measure. The 18th
was principally consumed with discussing this
bill, and it was rejected on its I'd reading,

the bill to incorporate the Tennessee Marble,
Mining and Manufacturing Company passed
I'd reading. The Law Reform Bill consumed
most of the day, and pending discussion the
Senate adjourned l4th, Mr. Bullen intro

road, connecting the Copper Mines in Polk

TIE SrATE STOCK.


The reader will have observed in our leg
islative summary of last week, notice OF
bill, introduced by Mr.. White, of Knox
county, "to authorize the Governor to trans
fer the Stock owned by the State in the
East Tennessee and Georgia Railroad Com
pany, to the Knoxville and Kentucky Rail-
road Company, and to receive in payment
therefor the Stock of the latter" We learned
as early as last August that proposition Of
this character would he before the Legisla-
ture at the present session, and determined
to enter our protest against it whenever 1t
should be made, as calculated to result in a
heavy loss to the State, and to prove detri-
mental TO the best interests of the East Ten
nessee and Georgia Railroad Company. We
have long been of opinion that the State
should not be partner in any Railroad Cor
poratiOn or Barking institution, and would
gladly see the Stock which it owns in the
East Tennessee and Georgia Railroad sold
out whenever il can be done without any
further loss. But to ask the State to trans
fer its interest in this Road, when it is begin
ming to be valuable, for consideration which
is Mt present and must continue for years
vaueless, evinces II recklessness OF The pub
lie interests difficult to conceive Of The East
Tennessee and Georgia Road is completed
and in successful operation-its business is
every day increasing, and its Stock rapidly
approaching, and will readily sell for one
hundred dollars per share wheneverthe upper
East Tennessee Road is completed, and the
connection with the Virginia line made. The
Kentucky Road is an enterprise gel to bebuih
-one of doubtful practicability, at least for
some years, and in mere pecuniaiy point of
view the transfer of the Stock in the manner
proposed, would show disregard of the
States interests which could not be justified
by any possible advantage to grow out Of
tho transaction, to say nothing of the folly
of giving the Kentucky Company the con-
trolling power in the affairs Of the East
Tennessee and Georgia Road, which has been
built under so many sacrifices and difficulties.
Whenever tho time arrives for the State TO
sell out its Stock, We will cheerfully go for
such disposal Of it-that time, however, has
not yet arrived. But do not ask it to throw
it away, as it would be virtually doing, by
transferring it to the Knoxville and Kentucky
Company. In our humble judgment the
gentlemen whose fertile minds first conceived
this measure to make the State sacrifice so
largo an interest to aid them in schemes, not
entirely Of public character, and to enable
them eventually to control the affairs Of the
East Tennessee and Georgia Road, might
study out more Legitimate means to accom-
plish their purposes. We tr1st the bill will
not only be defeated, but by such vote as
the monstrous impsopriety Of the thing mer-
its.

Along al her rocky coast, from the Pyre-
nccs 10 Point Europa, it is said that Spain has
not n single lighthouse. Neither has she
any railroads, canals, or telegraphs. So this
great nation, once so proud and powerful, is
falling in the rear of nearly all her ancient ri
walls: and nations that had no name when she
was lord OF Europe and the ocean, now lead
her in the march of Improvement and the
magnitude Of empire.
SO much for people over whom the
Church of Rome exercises unlimited sway
Should that Church eve; attain the ascend
ancy in our now happy and prosperous coun-
try, at which is evidently aiming, how long
would it be before the blight and mldew
that ever follows in its steps, would be seen
destroying all which is now our pride and
boast?

THE GREAT misunderstanding of the
prolonged struggle at Washington and the
difficulty of organizing the House, and the
threatening aspect of the times generally, the
Petersburg Intelligencer exclaims as follows
"At such time how nvoluntariy and
how strongly does the mind of the honest
hearted and patriotic man revert to those
good and great men, whose voices, now
hushed in the dread silence of the grave, have
so often controlled and lulled the storm of
strife when it ragged loudest and fiercest, and
threatened most. and how earnestly comes up
the heartfelt wish, Tint the grave could give
back its prey, and day eren Of life, roani-
mate the frames Of Henry Clay and Daniel

R1R'7in the New York Supreme Court, on
Monday last, touching the competency of n
hnow Nothing, or member of the Order Of
United Americans, to sit on jury, on ac-
count OF his opinions in reference 10 the Irish
ana Roman Catholics, Judge Morris, deliver
60 nm opinion, affirming that as the foundation
OF American Jurisprudence is the right to DO
tired by an nnprejudiced jury, il is proper to
ascertain whether the jurors are members
OF that order or not, in order to determine
how much he might be warped by the princi.
pies of that organization. Tho refusal Of a
Know Nothing juror to answer the question
wne'her ne MS member OF the order, in
case tried some time since, was the occasion
ofthis opinion from Judge Morris.

The Bcllefonte (Ala) Register says:
"'rhis great work of internal improvement
is approaching rapidly towards completion.-
The burning of tho Tennessee Bridge has
somewhat retarded the work, in preventing II
sufficient supply Of iron. But the laying of
cross ties is going on while arrangements arc
being made; no very great delay is therefore
anticipated
We were informed that tho connection

The UNloS BASK.-The last Knoxville
Register contains II copy of the correspon
denee between the Directors of the Branch
of the Union Bank at Knoxville and the Pa.
rent Bank ut Nashville, which terminated in
the resignation of the Directory of the
Branch Bank. We gather from this cores
pondence that one of the causes of the diff
fcuty originated in the Branch at Knoxville
extending, on two or three occasions, slight
accommodations to the East Tennessee and
Georgia Railroad, amounting in all perhaps
to some twenty thousand dollars. All we
wish TO say in regard to the business IS sim
ply this Every bill discounted by that or
any Bank for the East Tennessee and Geor-
gia Railroad, has been promptly met and paid
ut maturity-that the Road does not owe
the Bank at Knoxville anything, and never
intends to, and that, in our opinion, the
financial affairs of the Railroad Company
have been as ably managed, and are in as
healthy condition rs those of the Union
Bank Of Tennessee. The course of the
Cashier at Nashville, as exhibited in the pub
lished correspondence, was, TO say the least,
extraordinary and entirely uncaied for.

The CONVENTION IN FEBRUARY.-Thc
Convention of the American party to nomi-
nate candidates for President and Vice Prcsi.
dent, is to convene on the Odd day of Feb.
ruary-some eight months in advance of the
election. The press Of the party, rs far rs il
has given IN expression, is decidedly averse
TO nomination at that early day, as it would
give the opposition decided advantage, and
in fact place the game entirely in their hands
To our mird, it appears TO be the very height
of folly. No candidate whom the American
or any party might nominate, would be able
to hold out and win in such protractcd race
even George Laws "mil!ions" would melt
away and be exhausted in a campaign of such
duration. If the nominations are made in
February, it will require no great gift of pro.
phccy to predict which party islilsely to come
out Of the contest victorious II is probable
however, they will be postponed till u later
day.
