have been wept over long enough. We should
be sorry to say anything that wo1A hurt the
feelings Of our fellow countrymen in that far
of Territory; but we affectionstely warn them
that they are running great risk of becoming
bore. We hope they will arrive in the end
st happy iesue out of all their troubles, and
that they will not forget, 10 the excitement of
politics, to SOW their fields, clear the woods,
and build solid houses with stout broad CHM
neys; and we also trust that as their mental
energy developes, they will cultivate letters,
and send US good newspapers, with the whole
story Of their shocking squabbles printed 10
fine large type, on good paper, to the end that
we may be entertained, and assured that the
Anglo Saxon race is preserving its gro Wing
and pugnacous propenaities, even in the Far
West. But till that happy day comes, it ap-
pears that Kansas has no right to claim 80
much Of our attention as she now usurps.
From all that can be learnt, the two parties
are fighting it out in the neighborhood of Law
renee very satisfactorily, and from the noise
they make it is to be presumed that they will
settle their dispute before long one way or the
other. Several little glrls and one or two little
boys were very much alarmed some time since,
by the intelligence that the naughty people in
Kansas had got cannon and pistols, and were
going to do mischief with them; but the pa
rents of these children have no doubt satisfied
them by this time that there was too much
barking in Kansas for much biting. P0liti-
clans, too, have made good thing out of Kan
cas-; and not few Of them have had greatness
thrust upon them on it's account.
So now let us rest-let Kansas manage its
own affairs, and let US mind ours.
A FIERY ENs1GN-SEvEN VoLcANoEs--No
CHANCE FOR MARcY.-The new flag of Nicara-
qua consists of three stripes, two of sky blue,
with white stripe in the centre, and in the
midst of the white is q circular device of the
zeal Of State and the representation of seven
volcanoes, in token Of the volcanic range OF
Nicaragua Seven volcanoes! Yet Marcy Of
fects to turn up his nose at Gen. Walker with
all these engines Of combustion at his back !!
Seven volcanoes! The full astrological and
mythical number of seven. There were the
seven wonders OF the world, the seven golden
candlesticks, the seven churches of Asia, the
seven Pleiades, the seven wise men of Greece,
&C.; and there are the seven days of the week,
the seven sacramento, the seven bells on ship
board, and many other things typical of q
mysterious power in that mystical number, Sc
ven; what, then, must be the power of Walk
er, with seven volcanoes at his back Let
Marcy consider these things and submit to
manifest destiny. Seven volcanoes! What
country would Nicaragua be for Professor
Merriam and his theory Of earthquakes.
SPEECH OF w. H. SEwARD.-We have received
q copy of the speech in the United States Sc
nate of w. d. Seward, "tor the immediate
admission OF Kansas into the Union," but we
have no room for it. The acts and facts and
testimony which he recites SO copiously in his
history Of Kansas, have been 80 often repeated
as to be now like "a thrice told tale in the ears
of a drowsy man." Nor is it necessary to re-
understanding OF his line of argument. He
thinks that Kansas should be admitted at once
as free State upon the application Of the
Lane and Robinson party-that slavery has
no business in the Territory, anyhow, and that
it will only damage the South to continue the
struggle there for the ascendency-for that
even should they secure Kansas as slave
State, it will only make the matter worse for
them, because the intensified abolition agita-
ton of the North would drive them to seces-
sion. In behalf of the Union, therefore, and
to restore quiet to Kansas and the North AMI
the South, Mr.. Seward appeals for the imme-
date admission Of Kansas as q free State
Such is the substance Of the seven or eight
columns of Mr.. Stewards enormous speech. W,
have no room for it, and were we to MAJ.
room for it we fear that our readers would
have neither the time nor the patience to read
it. We are constrained to let it pass.
WHICH is IT The American party did WON
ders yesterday in the election at Albany, that
bridge bill and all other things considered but
to whom do the honors belong? To Willard
Fillmore or Live Oak George Law?" The Re
gister, we know, did some service; but Scovil;s
is for Live Oak George; the Statesman made the
contest q matter Of lite and death; but that
organ plays for Fillmore. Assert the tickets,
gentlemen-assort the tickets.
VOTE EARLY.-All over the country where
any elections are on hand, we see that the ne 0s-
papers are calling upon the people to vote
