Qolitieal Mattu-.
The Democracy in favor of Sia-
very Extension.

We call the attention of honest Demo-
crats who are opposed to the extension Of
Slavery, to the following extract from the
New York Day Book, prominent Bu-
chanan organ. 1t contains the true senti-
ments and policy of the supporters of the
Cincinnati Platform:
We hold negro slavery" to be right,
right perse, right in itself, in the. nature
and necessity of things; that while there
are defects or ilnperfections of detail, as in
every thing else, and in all human institu-
tions, there are, perhaps, no more evils con-
nected with Southern society than that at
the North; that negroes are negroes and
not white men, and, therefore, the peculiar
domestic institution of the south is no
slavery at all, but on the contrary, the nat
ural relation of the races, and the nor
NAL condition of society, whentver or
wherever whites and negroes are in juxta-
position. And we further hold that slave
nv extension, so called, or the free, full, and
unembarraSsed movements of Southern
population, or its perfect freedom of expan-
sion-of emigration-of development south
ward and tropicward, is absolutely essential
to the peace, progress and safety of Amer
lean civilization, and indeed to the very ex-
istence of the American Republic. And
in our frequent articles on this particular
phase of the mighty question now upon us,
and before the people for their action, we
have said that the Northern Democracy,
when question should be presented to them,
would be in favor of the free expansion of
Southern population, or as the dupes of i'm
posture would term it, the extension of
slavery"
Consistency is a jewel, and this doctrine
is consistent with the course persued by the
present Administration-it is consistent
with border-ruffiadism in Kansas, and the
Douglas Nebraska bill; it is consistent
with the Democratic endorsement of Bully
Brooks-it agrees with the Cincinnati
Platform with Buchanan upon it, and it is
the true position of every man who sup
ports the latter, whether Inc recognizes it
as such or not. What honest lover of
Liberty would now be a Buchanan Demo
crat ?-Leader.

CHICAGO, Sept. 16.

CHICAGO, sept. 10.
Mrs. Governor Robinson arrived here to-
day from Kansas. The bail of the Treason
Prisoners was five thousand dollars each,
except Robinson's which was $500. Gov
Geary released the prisoners in the hands
of the mob at Leavensworth. He issued
a proclamation commanding all armed
bands to disperse. The Missourians had
generally fed to Westport, for fear of at
tack by Lane. Gen. Smith ordered all
the families seeking safety into Fort Leav-
ensworth.
Pro-Slavery men reported battle at
Blanton's Bridge, on the 3lst of August,
between 500 Missourians under Atchison
and a party of Free State men. The Mis-
sourians fed at the first charge.

Make.them Feel Bad.

The Richmond (Va.) Wing, as well as
the Buchanan journals, receive the news
from Maine with the most touching evi-
dences of grief. Hear the former:
'sThe telegraph brings sad news to the
Southern Democracy from Maine. The
election in that State came off on Monday,
and the result is complete and overwhelm-
ing Black Republican triumph.
We consider that the result of the elec-
tiop in Maine puts complete extinguisher
upon Buchanan's chances for the Presidell-
cy.
We make the prediction confidently
now that Illinois-the home of Douglas
himself -B;ssell viii beat Richardson for tic
Goyernorship out of sight.
The State of Douglas, and Shields, and
Richardson, we repeat, will beyond all
doubt cast its vote for the Black Republi-
can candidate.
=
And thus it will most certainly be, too,
with Buchanans own State-.he great Key
stone State of PENNSYLVANIA. And if he
loses this, will any of his friends be kind
enough to tell us what earthly possibility
there is of his obtaining the electoral vote
of one single northern State. There is
noneathere can be none. His chances i'll
the north, look in what direction YOU may,
ere utterly and deperately hopeless. No
candid man in either section will even pre-
tend otherwise"
The Boston Times after lugubriously at
tributing the disastrous result to some tit-
teen or twenty good and sufficient reasons,
winds up with the following ''plain talk
Like causes produce like results, and,
to our mind, it is clear as sunlight, that
unless a complete reversal of the position
of the Democracy is shortly secured, we
shall find other States, now considere ours,
following in the walk of the ''Pine Tree
State" We know this is plain talk, and
that it will sound harsh in Democratic ears,
but it is the truth. and nothing else but the
truth"
SoullI't wonder,

This is what the Cleveland Plain Dealer
said of James Buchanan at the time Bigler
was running for the Governorship of Penn
svlvania;
'The small and malignant Clique who
wear the name of James Buchanan on their
colors, are endeavoring to sell the Democ-
racv of Pennsylvania, into the hands of the
South Carolina traitors. James Buchanan
never was elected by the people toany Office,
except when he was Federalist. HE HAS
NOT ONE THROB OF DEMOCRAT
&c FEELING ABOUT HIS COLD
BLOODED BACHELOR HEART
He could not receive the votes of oae-Mird
Of the people for any office. And yet by
the force Of management of the basest kind
of political machinery, he has been able
for years past, to crush the Democratic
party ofthis State, Pennsylvania TO hang
about its neck like. a milestone, to kill every
progressional thought in its bosom. He
and his tools virtually gave the State to
Taylor in ls4s, and if Bigler is defeated
a good and noble man, you may charge it
to James buchanan, who, like the old man
in the history of Sinbad the sailor, now
hangs on Bigler's neck"

STATEMENT OF FRANK QUINTAL

Mr.. EDrroR:-As many of my fellow
citizens have thoughtit best to furnish you
with a true statement of the great wrongs
that have been inflicted upon us, | also take
advantage of your columns to add my
statement. tt-.'t
went to Leavenworth City early in
April, 1856, from Morgan county, Illinois,
all at that time being quiet. l took my
wife with me. Soon after l arrived there
engaged in business, which was purchas-
ing vegetables, poultry, &c, in Missouri,
and hauling and selliug the same in Leav-
enworth City. Afterwards L opened a
store, and continued following my business,
attending to if, and nothing else, up to
last Monday, when l was informed by the
mob, under the command of Capt Emory,
VIM. H. Rossell, (of the firm of Majors d
RusselD and Others, that as l was Free
State man must leave forthwith, or, if
stayed / must prepare to die, or take up
arms and fall in the ranks. l told them
that 1 would not fight with them, that
had never said or done anything that was
in violation of the laws of my country
They ordered me to leave at once, not
giving me time to settle up my business or
anything else. e-
The steamer Emma came to our landing
during the morning. was waited on
again by the mob, and told to take my
wife and 60 on board the boat at once
l asked them to let me take my goods
with me, but they told me l should not,
and said, "Go aboard the boat at once, OF
we will shoot you on sight" called nv
wife, the mob all the time telling me to hur-
ry up. As soon as she could put on her
bonnet she came to the door, and the mob
started us ahead of them and followed us
down to the boat-thus compelling me tc
leave behind my all in the world, which
cost me about $500; and this has been the
fate of all who, when asked, merely saio
they were in favor of a Free State.
This has been my only crime, and fol
this have been driven from my home,
