VIEWS OF TIE PRESIDENT

VIEWS OF THE PRESIDENT
Tie opinions expressed by the Executive sub
stanta;ly as follows
"While Government has been exhsus,ing its
stitutional powers which lmited to maintain
der Kansas Aid Societies have been actively stirring
up rebellion A factious spirit among the people of
Kansas respecting institutions which they need not
have corcerned themselves about, and which would
have all come right in time originated the troubles
From the nature habits and education Of the border
men, it was natural to find them excited by such an
agitation At this crisis the North. instead of sending
in aimed men, who went about boasng of their ability
to protect themselves should have sent in order loving
and law abiding citizens should have sent in peace
seeking men, who would have promoted concord by
moral asences-by Bibles rather than by SharpS
rifles Such course would have strengthened the
hands of the PIe-ient instead Of tying them they
had been The sufftriDgs Of the settlers are therefore
of their own seeking, and the legitimate fruits OF that
guppowdr bible preaching which they and their sup
porters at the North have advocated. Each side s
doubtless to blame. Iniammstory appeals are circu-
late both South aud North and reports, false or exag-
gerated put forth by heated patisans to stir up Sec
tiouel strife II each party would OILY get nd OF
about hundred OF Their designing and restless leaders,
agitation would cease and speedy end De put to tue
disorders.
The interpoaton of tho Executive is clauned ~
both sides each party urging agsinst the o'her e1'c
ly the same charges At his distance from the scene
Of etIife. the President canno. determine between
them. His action must be guided by ofiica. reports.

MR. HACKETIS FALSTAFF.

A brilliant audience assembled last evesing at tho
Academy of Music to witness the representation OF
the play of Henry w., with Mr.. Hackett as tsstan.
As the play is performed mainly for the pur-
pose of displaying the ability Of the actor who per.
sons..s Fslsta!f, we shsll confne remarks chiefly
10 that gentleman, merely premting that the other
pars were all cably filed and tina. the Hosspar

We canrot express an unqualified admiration a

to give a detailed enumeration of what We conceive
to be his faults. The striking feature OF hs person.
alton i. bis lack of in thoroughly identifying
himself with tie character in its genial and re-
dceopg pcints.
The ic,iality and good nature of Mr. Hsckett have
a certain .bsllowncfs sipgt them they not suHi-
GENTLY unctuous and OVERLOOKING; they are not
brought into such huge prominence az TO oveishadow,
or even partially conceal the all pervadDg sclishness
of the fat knight. The thorough good fellowship
which would naturally plead somewhat in mitigation
of his lying ard bombastic Dragging, is 30 lost in tho
nte, pretation that the only visible remnant IL nero
shedtw of nir.h.
TIE mere words as written by the author, convey
pftcsly the idea Of the cowsdce and selfshness Of
Fasiaff while the upctuous humor can only be
heCy ed forth by the power Of the actor And here Mr..
IIatkett fails to FL the character are so Impressed
by The words Of the text, with the wOuld-be hero's
unsmiable ard pusilanimous qualities, that all Mr..
Iaekets artificial ocOsity is too weak to change our
opinion, and look upon the Dragging knight a. too
thoroughly ccnten ptibe to be even good fellow. The
actors idea of the character may be correct enough,
but go te certainly does not succeed in realizing
that conception to the satisfaction Of every critical
auditor Every attempt at joty is an exact fac snile

In fact, this dental display is great feature
of the peri, f,marcc ard is 80 persisteutly

the manner Of the performer, that he acts If

ponderosity is but cotton imitation rather than

Az EXCHANGE OF CAvDIDATEs.-A glance at the
head or this column will ser TO show tina; the Pre5l
Dental ticket put up by the Cincinnati Convention
has been displaced, AID the one recommended at
Philadelphia su b ftituted therefor.
This change in candidates involves no change In the
political doctrines OF this paper. We surrender no
principle hitherto advocated by US, nor DO we add
anything new to our political creed.
1t IA unnecessary 20 say 20 those who have Deen IN
tte habit Of reading The Standard for ten years past
that durr this period it has uniformly and persist.
emily advocated the doctrine that Congress mas the
constitutional po yer TO prohibit Slavery in the Terri
tories Of the United States, and that al the legitimate
influence of the Government should be brought to
bear in favor of its exclusion therefrom 1t is equally
well known that the Cincinnati platform s antago
nistical to this doctrine. That platform denies to
Congress any authority TO egislate the subject for
the Territories II goes further than this: 1t declares
in fleet that Slavery exists IN The Te. riorIes by VIZ
tue of the Constitution, and forbds the people from
interfering with ii until they proceed to form State
government. t. 1t wholly ignores the old Democratic
doctrine that Slavery is creature Of municipal law
and recognizes it a national institution, entitled
to the guardianship and protection of the General
Government And this heresy is made a test OF fe-
lowshp with the organization which ls enlisted IN sup
port Of the candidates nominated at Cincinnati IL
is declared to be the only issue OF the ffesldenta
campaign.
We cannot submit to this test individually, nor any
longer consent to favor the election OF Presidential
candidate whose po.tion requires him to apply IL 10
every electOr IN the Unien. Our views or thls suDect
compel US to follow different path. We prefer John
c. FremoI I, and the platform which he stands, 10
James Buchanan the principles which he is pledged
to enfo'ce.
There would be reason for besitancy in adopting
this course ftbere any doubts rs to the quahca
tions of Col Fremont for the Presidential cice. Bat
upon this point there sresly room TO dispute Co

requisites essential successful discharge of great

TO be one of the bes. aud mOs popular Presidents the
country WAS ever blessed with. If Col. Fremont
shOuc be eected-of which there is little doubtthere
will be 70 complain. on this score. In every position
to which he has been called he has been more than
equal to his responsibilities. In this respect the past
is full guaranty for the future.
