Public Opinion.

~ IN THIS Gun JuuctuIe, WHAT ouput the
people of the north to do? Ought they
to submit and see the free settlers Of Kan
sas driven from their burning houses aud
hunted through the forests like beasts Of
prey? Clearly, they ought not to submit.
They ought rather to accept the issue the
Administration invites, and meet force by
force. If we may judge of the north BY
what we may see and hear about US, it
only needs the voice Of leader in whom
the people have confidence to raise spon-
taneous array that shall sweep the Admin
istration and all who adhere to it to doom
more fearful than that which overlook
Lawrence. 1t is not the ardent and i'm.
pulsive alone who are moved. Men who
have always hitherto avoided extremes,
and who have held abolitionism in detes-
tation, freely express the opinion that the
time has come to make q resolute and de-
termined stand that resistance to the fed
eral government is an imperative duty,
and that civil war had better be incurred
now, than to submit to further Ou;rages.-

AGooD DEED.-As will be seen by
telegraph, Mr. Brooks of South Carolina,
after the adjournment Of the Senate on
yesterday, administered to Senator Sumner,
the notorious and foul-mouthed Abolition
ist from Massachusetts,, an elegant and ef-
fectual Gaming. We are rejoiced at this.
The only regret We feel is that MIR. Brooks
did not employ horse e-whip or a cowhide
upon his slanjerous back, instead of a cane.
We trust the ball may be kept in motion.
