Col. Fremont on Kansas Affairs.

As Col FremontS name has been spoken of
by political circles in connection with the Pre-
sidency. and as certain newspapers have an.
nounced him as their favorite candidate,
there is general desire to learn his views
upon the great question which is to be the
chief issue in this Presidential canvas. A let
ter from him to Gen. Robinson, Governor Of
the State of Kansas. has been published in the
Boston Atlas" from which we infer that
his sympathiss are with the free State party
The following is the body of the letter as tel
egraphed to the New York papers. The let
ter is dated New York. March II:
1.-The Banks ballotting in the House. and
your movements in Kansas. had naturally car
ried my mind back to our one hundred and
forty odd ballots in California, and your let
ter came seasonably and ftly to mplete the
connection.
1--WE were defeated then, but the contest
was only an incident In great ssruggle-the
victory was deferred. not lost. You have
carried TO another field the same principle,
with courage and ability to maintain it. and
make you my sincere congratulations on your
success, incomplete SO far, but distined in the
end to triumph absolutely.
4 nau DeeO WalLlDp 10 see what shape the
Kansas question would take in Congress. that
| might be enabled to give you some views in
relation to the probable result. Nothing vet
has been accomplished. but l am satisfied
that in the end Congress will take efficient
measures to lay before the American people
The exact truths concerning your affairs
Neither you nor l can have any doubt what
verdict the people will pronounce upon a
truthful exposition.
Il. is to be feared, from the proclamation
Of the President, that he intends to recognize
the usurpation in Kansas as the legitimate
government. and that the sedition law. the
test oath. and the means taken TO expel its peo-
pie as aliens, will all. directly or indirectly.
be supported by the army of the United
States.
Your position will undoubtedly be difficult,
but you know | have great confidence in your
frmness and prudence. When the critical
moment arrives you must act yourself No
man can give you counsel. A true man will
always find his best counsel in that inspira-
ton which good cause never fails to give
him at the instant of trial.
IAN history teaches US that great results
are ruled by wise Providence, and we are
units in the grea, plan. Your actions will be
determined BY events as they presen, them

that as you atood by me firmly and generously

r. A little incident grew out OF the Shu-

Shulof paid his own fare. and they went. AT
ter arriving at indianapolis. all three started

fsrent directions-Msc. being a man of taste,
preferred going by himself rather than to be
found walking the streets Of the Capital with
two such moral lepers. In due time they came
in the presence of the dispenser Of free whis-
ky. Mac made his return in accordance with
the facts Of the case, that Shulof hadn't been
in his custody since Saturday night previous
and was not then in his possession. Bickle
argued the case with his accustomed elo-
quence-mads complaint against Esq. Lyle
and Mac for no: doing as he told 'em to, and

that kind of cus,ody-he told Mac that as he

no. punish him as he deserved but next

thing near $4,000. That he received near this
amount we think cannot be denied"
