The Portland Argus says;
Their proviso In part Of It, clothes the President

House amendment to the bill thus lost be at

license every crime in every part Of Kansas"
The Ohio Statesman continues to pour hot shot into the
revolutioniss Here is extract from its last gun:
"These reyoutioniss at Washington may think II wise

withhold suppress them but when fight

The New Orleans Crescent speaks follows:
"The Senate cannot recede WE'LL 1t better the bill

reckless and infamous designs II IL does fail and the army
is disbanded, mitary establishments broken up, and
massacre the responsibility will attach to and crush the

FALsEHOOD CORRECTED.

The following ridiculous paragraph Is going the rounds
OF the opposition press:
DEcLIsEs SERVE The Hon. Mr. G0ode ono Of tho
democratic electors Of Virginia. says he Is longer acting
with the democracy. He il odine whg and being OPP
posed Of the features Of the American organization
he has acted with the democracy But having been in Con-
gress with Buchanan and knowing that he be
the question of slavery whilst from his serving with Mr.
Fillmore and his action while President he knows that Mr.
f. be relied upon, he therefore goes for Fillmore"
This is only another illustration of the desperation of the
Fillmore press and of the eagerness with which ii seizes
upon every idle story bolster up its sinking fortunes
The Hon. William O. Goode the present representative in
Congress from Virginia. it is true served in the House
whilst Mr. Buchanan member of the Senate He had
thus opportunity OF becoming personally acquainted
with that distinguished statesman and of observing his
strict adherence to conservative and constitutional line
of policy II may be that it is for that he accords
to Mr. Buchanan that ardent support which Is well
known he gives the nominees of the Cincinnati Conven-
ton. 8 IA f.s.g s. ... 4. IS. r..
1t is equally true that Mr. Goode served in Congress
with Mr.. Fillmore and having there had opportunity
Of witnessing Mr. Fllmore close political ASSOCIATION with
Giddings Sade Co, and his uniform support of their
sectional policy may be that he finds in those remns
the which him to look it is well
known he does, with much dstrust upon the elevation
of Mr.. Fillmore to the presidency.
The origin Of this absurd story may possibly be this
Mr. Thos F. Goode appointed county eector for the
county of Mecklenburg Virginia, and declined to
because 1t did suit him. and because he opposed
to Mr. Buchanan On the contrary, he will give Mr. Blu
chanans election hearty and cordial support
