other places before long, to proclaim, as few
other men could, "the deep damnation" Of
the murderous effort not only to stake him
off," but to subjugate the free people Of
Kansas. No doubt the ruffians feel deeply
chagrined at his escape from their murder.

Gbr 1ailg Spy,
.subduing" in Kanzas.

The latest advices from Kanzas, published in
another column, indicate that the subduing
process, inaugurated by Senator Douglas, is fast
being carried into execution, unless Sharpe's
rifles borne by fifteen hundred determined men,
"Who know their rights, and knowing, dare maintain"
shall be sufficient, united with the consciousness
of their being welded in holy and just cause in
selfdefense against a 6end.like oppression, to
cause the administration authorities to desist from
their diabolica purpose of endeavoring to enforce
obedience to the infamous, unconstitutional
border rufian edicts.
The Free State men of Kanzss have shown no
disposition, at any time, to lift finger against
the United States authorities, or do any thing
inconsistent with the borough execution OF the
laws of the United States. In fact, what they
have most complained of is, the outrageous Vlo-
lations of these laws, to remedy which evils
they have called in vain upon the author-
ties of the United States. After having thus sui
red the territory to be trodden under foot by
invaders from Missouri who installed over it. Tor
legislature, men representing the "pecuhar IN
terests" of that State, in entire opposition
to all the interests and principles and wishes OF
the people of Kanzas, the administration at
Washington are ordering to be arrested for ''trea
son." all who manifest disinclination to obey the
behests Of Stringfellow, Atchison, & Co, as en-
bodied in their internal "black CODE borrowed
from the slavelaws of Missouri.
Considering how outrageous has been the treat
ment the people of Kanzas have received, we
cannot see how any Democrat can look upon
their action in refusing to submit to the edicts of
the bogus Legislature in any other light than as
perfectly iustifabe, and even obligatory, if they
have any respect for themselves, any regard ior
the :'squatter sovereignty doctrine, once SC
strenuously advocated by our bogus Democrats
Gen. Cass's organ, the Detroit Free Press, has
the correct view of the matter, when it says:
The President should pause long before treat.
ing as Unreasonable insurrecti3n the action of
those inhabitants of Kanzas who deny and repu-
date the binding authority OF the laws OF the
Missouri KanZas Legislature. For, in our hum
bic opinion, people that would not be inclined
to rebel against the acts of legislative bedy Fore
ed unon them by fraud and violence, would be IN.
worthy the name of American. If there ever
Unsuitable cause for popular revolution against
usurping and obnoxious government, that cause
has existed in Kanzas.
1t is lamentable, indeed, to notice how few of
those who were once so loud in advocacy OF
"squatter sovereignty" now stand up to their
own doctrine, IN the face of the border rufan pro-
clivites of the sham democracy of this day. But
all honor to the Free Press for its consistency.
Would to heaven that Gen. Cass himself would
dare to face the music to the same tune, from his
seat in the Senate.

also, that the President inform the House
