Testimony of a Shareholder.

st LOUIS Sept. 10, YS56
Editors Chicago Tribune Il conversed ysster-
day with a gentleman who is one of the wealth
lest Shareholders in Missouri, and lives on the
Kansas border-a man who was born and raised
in the South, and never lived in the North-who
said that, he had never known of or read in histo-
ry,accounts Ofsuch shameless, inhuman outrages
as has been perpetrated by some Pro-Slavery men
in the Territory-Buford's company and others
The battle of Osaawattomie, he said, was in re-
atty no battle at all. Three hundred Ruffans
fell upon about thirty-fve Free State men, and
butchered many ofthem in cold blood Although
a Southern man and wealthy stakeholder, this
gentleman said he could not be brought to en-
dorse such outrages-he had rather see slavery
utterly extirpated. 1 myself, am opposed to the
election of Fremont, in the abstract view of the
case; but if nothing but his election can check
the Democracy in their career of outrage and
crime shall not object.

Gov. GEARY.-The Inaugural Address of
Gov. Geary, to the citizens of Kansas, on assum-
ing the Office of Governor of that Territory, ap-
pears in the columns of the ST. Louis papers
He seems to appreciate the responsibilities of
his station. and okes the people to cooperate
with him to heal the wounds of Kansas, and re-
store peace to all her borders, The past and
present disturbances, he very justly attributes
to 'soutside interference" He pledges himself
to uphold the doctrine of popular sovereignty in
the Territory with all his might" and with all
the power committed TO him.
Regarding the Bogus Laws, he says "From
citizens who deem themselves aggrieved by re-.
cent legislation, l would invoke the utmost for
bearsnce, and point ont to them sure and peace
able remedy. You have the right to ask tie
next Legislature TO revise any and all laws"
But the Governor does not tell them what to do
in case the next Legislature" shall be composed
ofthe same material as was the one Of last year,
as it probably will be.
Accompanying the Inaugural, are two procla-
nations from Governor Geary, both dated Sept,
| llth-one disbanding all volunteer militia and
other armed combinations of msn-and the other
ordering the enrolment of the Militia aud the
organization of the same in companies, regi-
ments, and brigades, to be held in readiness to
be mustered by his order at any time Chicago

the young Fremonter again sung out, "Hurrah
for Fremont" whereupon Mr. Cotter made good
his word, and hit the boy blow in the face, who
ran few steps. and again hurrahed. He was
again lpursued and struck, when he pitched in,
to defend himself, and the police interfsrsd and

a@ The Kenosha Democrat comes
to us this week with an article marked,
which asks why it is that the "Brig" Col
Glover carried Fremont flag short
time and then replaced it with Buck 81
Breckfiag adding "the same Captain sails
her now" This is a mistake, Captain
Hoag left the vessel when the Buck &
Breck flag became an appendage to it
with the owners consent. We are in
formed that he refused the present of a
Fremont flag alleging that the owner
was Buchanan man, and he did not
think it right to offend his prejudices,
and though a Fremont man, he was will
ling to sail without any polisical flag.
We have no desire to interfere in this
matter, which has produced considera-
bic excitement here, but the Democrat
hasdoneinjustice to Captain Hoag either
wilhully or otherwise, and we are not
guilty of unwMranted assumption, in
asking it to correct the statement
