The exciting news from Kansas-the terrible

overthrow Of law, and the assumption Of all authority
In matters Of crime by the Vigilance Committee,
therein firmly establshed-the anomalous state Of
affairs in Utah-the attitude Of powerful political
party, overriding the Constitution and threatening
the subversion Of the rights Of the entire Southern
portion Of the Union, in the event Of success either
by direct proclamation or by other unmistakeablc
signs-these things, taken in connection with the
spirit Of resistance daily appealed to in our midst by
the newspapers of the day. present saddening ndica
lions Of the rule ruin principle that prevails in
the popular mind, and ought to arrest the attention
and control the patriotic exertions and agencies
whatever they may be, Of every well-wisher OF the
Union of every friend OF good government, OF every
advocate Of the supremacy OF law, the majesty Of the
Constitution and the reputation of the Republic.
Madness does seem to rule the hour, and black
clouds, portending naught but evil to the country
hang over the land. The political sky is dark and
darkening more and more. The fry bolts, which
10 flash and scatter ruin over glorious land,
seem even now ready to leap from their rendezvous
Of danger and vengeance. wicked purpose, mag
nificent and gloomy, like demon plague entrusted

has become OF the patriotism, the conservatism and
the political religion which have long aud 50 no
