No town u zs s.II odt n equal
number of rowdies and ruffians with CALI
polls. Well, gang of these scoundrels
captured flag which was guarded by a
little boy, and cut it in pieces. Embol-
dened by their success, they determined
to attack the delegation from Kygerville,
and capture its colors. Accordingly they
attacked the wagon containing the flag,
notwithstanding several ladies were in the
wagon. The Kygerville boys, however,
stopped their teams and drove back the in
vaders. Three. times was the attack made,
and three times were the scoundrels driv-
en- back. Finding it impossible to capture
the flag, without serious detriment to their
brains and bowels, a police officer was
called, who commanded the KygA delega-
ton to leave town. The Kyger boys, how
ever, refused to go. They told the officer
that they had started home three times,
and had been stopped each time by those
rufians, and they were then determined to
stay until the aggressors were dispersed;
that if there was no law or officer to pro-
tect them, they would protect themselves;
that whoever dared to lay his hand on one
of them, did it at his peril. This brought
the ruffans to their senses, and they with
drew, after which the Kyger boys went
home.
C1No1NNATI.-On the same evening,
(Tuesday) the Republicans of Cincinnati
had Torch-Light Procession. 1t was a
magnificent affair. Several thousand trans
parencies were out, and many houses were
brilliantly illuminated. The procession,
however, was attacked at almost every cor
ner; the transparencies battered to pieces
by boulders, and several persons, mostly
ladies, were injured BY BENG struck with
brick-bats thrown at the procession, by
the Border Rufians Of Cincinnati.

RICHMOND, (Va.) March 3, 1856,
DEAR received yours of the 29th ult this morning
The slip which you enclose from the Baltimore Republican
of the 2h February which pupors to report the remarks
of tine Hon. A. II. H. Stuart in the know-nothng nomina

report Mr.. Stuart said:

gina said that the administration Of Fillmore Washing

Now am constrained to believe that Mr. Stuart could
have made this remark In herst place never ut
tered nor thought such sentiment in my life secondly,
don't think Mr. Stuart heard at all the stump du-
ring my canvass If he did he heard such senti
ment from me- and if such reported to him. the report
was incorrect; and thirdly Mr.. Stuart member of Mr.
Flmores cabinet could hardly have been immodest
to boast that anybody had said that Mr. Flmore admin

Again the report says,

Mr. Stuart or not Certainly the cause OF ciyand reg

THE TENURE OF OFFICE IN KANSAS.
The Kansas legislature half bad the black
republicans seek to make II appear II did not they
ser elect the shers and judges Of probate and nearly all
the county officers for six years The shefs and judges
Of probate appointed until the general election
which will take place 10 1884, and will then be elected
four years thereafter by the people The other territorial
oces except comptroller and treasurer (chosen by the
legislature) will be elected at the same time.
Now that the President has forbidden aggressive inva-
sion Of Kansas aud resolved to employ the military force
Of the general government to prevent IT, good citizens Of
the Territory will hesitate to their duty. II they
have been wronged their easiest aud only constitution
al remedy is In the ballo-box and the courts Of justice.
There is always the peoples remedy II there laws
which tramme freedom of speech and the press they
