WASHINGTON, July 81.
The Senate in executive session to-day,
has confirmed John w. Geary as Governor
of Kansas, vice Shannon, removed. | am
told that the only Senator who voted against
him was Mr.. Toombs.
1t is reported that Gen. Wilson express
cd great surprise at the course the Ad-
mi nistration was pursuing in removing
GOV. Shannon, and asked to know what
great sin he had committed. He said il
was only last February that he presented
Shannon to the Senate in his true light,
and the Administration Senators then pro-
uounced him perfect He was their idol
He (Wilson) wanted 10 know what had
come over the spirit of the Presidents
dreams to produce this wonderful char ge
and to recommend his removal.
The Senate was convulsed with laugh
ter, amid which Mr.. Jones Of Iowa remarked
that the exposition of the Senator of Massa-
chusetts. relative to the official conduct OF
Shannon in Kansas was made in secret
session, and of course the President could
have no knowledge of the facts he present.

sources IldL IHe Etildtoi "oS CoiiCIt.
Mr. Richardson, of Illinois, who has been
ztumpinp that State for himself for Cover
nor, has returned to-day, and boasts that
the Fillmore Know Nothings there are 60
inc to stab the Republicans and vote with
the Border-Rufiian Democracy. The De-
mocracy base their only hope of success on
the support they expect from the Fillmore
tics.
The members from Pennsylvania have
received very encouraging news from that
State for the past few days. ~
Brooks and Keitt, understand, have
made eight hundred dollars piece by re-
signing, in constructive mlleage-laying off
at the Springs during the time.
The Senate will come to a direct vote on
Mr. Dunn's bill, re-establishing the Mis-.
souri, Compromise, and reject it, 1t was
supposed they would dodge vote on it.

We might mention Mr.. Burnett, and sew

have also announced their determination to
leave the Pro-Slavery party Of Pierce and
company, to battle for freedom and equal

In Johnson Co. so great has been the
turning over Of the masses to the true Re-

ticket is from the ranks Of the old Demo-

Senator, one Of the ablest stumpers in the
west, and has heretofore done hard service
for the Democracy. He is now using his
eloquence and influence for freedom and

SENATOR SUMNER.-The well-intormcd
and reliable correspondent Of the N. York
iime,, writes as follows concerning the sit
uatIon of Senator Sumner
81 learn from excellent authority, that
Senator Sumner is not improving in health
under the influence of the usually nvigora-
ing sea breeze. His physical debility still
continues with perversc tenacity-a most
encouraging symptom in the estimation OF
nose friends who know how vigorous ms
constitution heretofore has been, how tenn
PerNte his habits, and perfect his former
nea'th. He has left Cape May for the
mountains, hoping to be benefited by the
change from sen to mountain mir; but from
me evidences before me, cannot avoid the
melancholy conviction that he will never
recover from the effects of the Brooks as
ssult."
