From THE ST. LOUIS EVENING NEws.-.
One who has read the history of the war OF
the Roses, OF the death struggle between
the Cavaliers ard Round heads in England,
or who is familiar with the contest for life
and death between the Wings and Tories in
the Carolinas during the Revolutionary war,
or who will turn his eyes to the ruined fields
and desolate valleys of Mexico, need not be
told how the fiery breath Of eternal feuds
parches beautiful land, blasts its freshness,
and wlthers veins throughout which has flow
ed the current that nourshed the national
life. ~
We saw yesterday two gentlemen, citizens
of Schuy Ter county, Illinois, who has just re-.
turned from months travelling in Kansas.
Their names were Chadsy and Potts, and,
as they have no interests in the Territory to
warp their views or bias their opinions, the
account they gave Of affairs there may be re-
lied on.
We learn fiom them that Kansas, few
months ago smiling, fresh, and prolific land,
with bosom plethoric with abundant sus.
tenance for the nourshment of all who
might there seek home, is now picture
of desolaton. The capture Of Lawrence
deepened and intensified the deadly animos-
ity that had all along existed between the
o.slavery and free State parties, and was
the finishing stroke TO a series OF preceding
events which turned silent but watchtul
hatred into open conflict.

THE NEW YORK COURIER ON BUCH.
ANAN.
The Courier speaks Of Buchanan as foIlc

The Courier speaks oil buchanan as follows:
"But Mr.. Buchanan, in our judgment, is
destined to be beaten. His amiable personal
qualities will go but very short way towards
reconciling the American people to the prin.
cipes and policy with which he is identified.
The coming contest involves too serious po-
itical issues to be Influenced, to any impor.
tant extent, by mere personal considerations.
The vital interests of the country are at stake.
We regard it rs certain rs any future event
can be, that the constitution of such domes
tic policy as that which has been inaugurated
under President Pierce, would ultimately
produce civil war; and that the carrying out of
the doctrines and sentiments Of the Ostend
Report and of the Cincinnati resolutions
would plunge us into war with the principal
powers of Europe. The great mass Of the
intelligent voters of the North, we have no
doubt, will entertain the same conviction. 1t
is trusted that Mr.. Buchanan will get the vote
of every Southern State. The selection of Mr..
Breckenridge, as the candidate for the Vice
Presidency, was made expressly to secure the
vote of Kentucky, which was regarded as the
most doubtful of the slaveholding States. 1t
was an adrct expedient, and perhaps may
effect its purpose so far as that State is con-
cerned; but it will be of no avail. Mr.. Buch
anan is to day weak candidate with n ma
jori,y of the American people, and as he
becomes better understood, will rapidly grow
weaker"

R- In declining to renomnate President
Pierce and substituting for him gentleman
who has been absent from the country during
nearly the whole of his administration, the
democratic leaders have played their old game
Of lodging responsibility. Since the over.
whelming judgment pronounced against the
democratic administration of Martin Van
Buren,, they have never permitted jury OF
the country to pass EpOn their management
of public affairs; and this, notwithstanding ng
one Of their objections to the Wing party in
lS4O, was the alleged advocacy b. the latter
OF the one.term principle. second candi.
daturc was urged then almost rs strenuously
as any other Of the ever varying principles OF
Democracy. But the disastrous defeat Of the
Little Magician taught them new lesson -
They then suddenly discovered that it was a
difficult thing to cheat the people twice with
the same man. They dropped Mr.. Tyler
without the slightest ceremony. They very
cheerfully permitted Mr.. Polk to retire. They
could not be induced to enter Gen. Cass for
another trial, niter his defeat in '4S. And now
they give the coup demort to General Pierce
with all the GOODNESS and nonchalance of
veteran execntioners. The popular intrli.
gence can hardly be deceived by this maneu.
vre. The country will understand that a
change of candidates by the Democracy does
not imply an Improvement Of their party or
their policy. The rejected castaway of this
election was the hero aud deity of the last.
Aud SO it runs, backward and forward. The
foremost man at Cincinnati in 1856 will most
likely be the hindmost man at Charleston in
1860. By that time either his own party will
have condemned him or they will be con-
vinced that the country has, and so he will be
given his nunc dminis into final Obscuriiy.
But in spite OF this cunning policy OF the
party in power we have cOnfdence that the
people, in the coming election, will remember
the sins and foliss of the Pierce administra.
ton, and will hold the democratic party and
their candidates responsible for them

The NomrNATIoS-MR. PIERcE.-The
New York Herald thinks the South has bad
" treated both Douglas and Pierce. It says
of the latter:
Mark the fortunes Of Mr.. Pierce, who,
poor man, having no particular mind OF his
own, had been the docile follower OF Doug
las, and, rs President, the potent ally Of the
South. II there was n man who deserved
the gratitude of the South it was franklin
Pierce. Douglas has character and talents
to sustain him, and reconquer popularity;
Pierre has nothing to rely on but the SER
vices he chanced to be able to render to the
South. Yet when the Convention met, what
is the unanimous report OF news collectors!
They say-aPirrre is a standing j0ke;"
"W6en people want 10 be facetous they say
they are for PIERCE" "The Office holders
mean to give Pierce complimentary vote,
but il is doubtful whether it can be managed"
and so on. On the first ballot, l22 votes
are scraped together from the Custom Hous'
es and Post offices;and these 60 falling away,
falling awav-the Southern delegates setting
the example of desertion-untl shame COM
pels Mr.. Pierce to Withdraw, ut the head Of
three votes and a half
Was there ever so impressive q lesson!-
What was the "enormity of Austrian ingrat.
itude" in comparison with this? Now, for
whom has the South deserted her champi-
ons! Assuredly, one might suppose, for
some chivarous son of her own, in whose
temper and courage she can rely Mt this great
crisis; for some man with heart at steel and
tongue of fire, who will do battle in her
cause with more steady fathfuIness than
Pierce, and more valiant ardor than Douglas.
Pshaw! the man the South has chosen is an
old gentleman, who was in the prime of life
when the Missouri Compromise was passed,
thirty six years ago; who helped to pass it
then and agrees To its repeal now; calcu.
lating, prudent old gentlman, who never OF.
tends any body, nor commits errors of tac.
ties; who has gone through life with cool
eye to the main chance, having no partlcu-
Var opinions, and no particular principles, and
no particular prcjudices that could stand in
the way of his advancement, and who, on all
occasions and at all crises, has been so cold,
80 canny and so cunning that now at the
close OF his long life he has not an emmy
| and he has not friend.
This is the man the chivalrous South has
chosen in preference to men who had sac'
riticed all for her. All! what world of in
struction there is in the report OF that Yin.
