We still remain without any detailed news from
Kansas beyond the telegraph accounts heretofore
given, the alarming character Of which has go
startled the entire community. Even The Wash-
ington Union, the organ Of our Border r lffiau
Administration, though exultrg in the idea that
the Free.Stats men have been totally suppressed
is alarmed at the reported murders and burnings
1t hopes that the accounts we have received are
exaggerated, and that the law.and .order-s abiding
citize ns-for so The Union describes the ferocous
mob assembled around Lawrence under the orders
OF Marshal DOnaldson-have not 81 been provoked
to retaliste" the refusal Of the citizens of Law.
renee to give up their arms BY destroying the town
aid numbering the inhabitants.
Apart from that exploit, The Union is exceedin .ly
delighted with all that hiss been done. II quotes

The Baltic arrived here early yesterday morning
with dates from London to the 14th inst. The
political news is not of much interest. The
Russians, having settled with their more powerful
enemies, are about to renew the war with the
Circassians, who may perhaps yet learn to regret
their blindness in refusing to cooperate with the
allies, and for whom no provision was made IN the
treaty of peace There is preposterous report
that the United States have made defensive al
lance with Persia; possibly it is commercial
convention, but it can be nothing more. The
Empress Eugene is said to be very ill. The
Belgian people have made some manifesto
tioss of disposition to defend the liberty of
the press among them against the dictaton OF
the French Government, but it is stated that the
Ministry of King Leopold have agreed to make
some concessions to Napoleon. 10 Italy dull and
somber agitation prevails, and seyious outbreaks are
not unlikely. The British Government have made
n new loan of five millions sterling; and the price
Of Consols has risen to 93i The coming crop
promises to be abundant, and the prices of grain
rather tend downward.

A very lon. letter, signed J. W. w, appears in
The Courier Of yesterday, from which We have
given copious extracts in another place. II has
been reported that the rufian Brooks has shown
disposition 10 call Mr.. Webb TO account on the
score Of articles hich have appeared in The Courier
and Enquirer chsracterizng that rsffan's conduct
in the terms it deserved 1t is said that Gen.
Webb sent word in reply that be had yet published
nothing in The Courier and Enquirer on the SUBJECT
but that anybody anxious TO know his opinions
might find them expressed at large in the article
from which We quote.
We Judge from that article that Gen. Webb in
tends during bis residence at Washington TO exer-
else 10 its fullest extent, his right OF expressing
bis opinions on the subject of Slavery, and oil the
outIages to which it gives rise, and that If anybody
is anxious for personal rencontre with him on
that score he is ready for it. Let him beware,
however. that Brooks does NOT steal upon him I'M
aysres and shoot or stab him in the back. As to
duel. in the first place what person OF any self
respect could consent to place himself in relations
10 Brooks in which be would have to regard and to
sneak Of him as gentleman and in the second
place. wha. " fair play" would be expected on the
part Of such d skulking assassin! Even in the
way Of street encounters it may be set down az
pretty certain that this Brooks will have nOthingts
do with any man who has arms even in his pockets,
unless well backed up BY q party of confederates
and With the odds ten to one in his favor.
Nor can We agree with the concluding suggestions
in the article which we have quoted-that, under
existing circumstances, the North mus send men
10 Congress who beside possessing the other requ-
site qualifications, also adroit, prompt and able
at the use of the pistol and the budgeOn. 1t is i'm
possible in the nature of things to combine those
qualifications. A man cannot be at once Charles
Sumner and shoulder.hitter. The accomplish
ments Of Seward are not compatible with those
Of q Poole, Baker q Herbert, or Brooks.
A man qualified for personal. rencontres is
likely, from that very fact, to be unqualified
for senatorial debates. The courage of the
statesman is totally distinct quality from thai
which animstes a street bully. Even so loDe

II will be seen by the telegraphic report from
WASHINGTON, that Mr. Slidell and Mr.. Douglas
have thought it expedient and necessary for their
reputation to endeayor to vindicate themselves
from any suspicion of having been accessories be-
fore the fact to the late brutal outrage in the Senate
Chamber. The explanation given by Douglas why
he did not interfere to put an end to the assault is
noteworthy. He apprehended that his motives
might be misconstrued There is not the least
danger that his motives for not interfering will be
misconstrued. MIR. Douglas knows very Well that
the man who stands by and allows fallen and IN
sensible person to be beaten before his eyes, be-
comes morally, if not legally party to the as
ssult His case would have stood much better If
the same caution which prevented him from inter
f,ring had also kept his tongue quiet
Wedonot understand how Toombs sdenial that he
was near Brooks consists with his admission that he
told him be approved what he had done. Did he
shout his appreciation across the Senate Chamber
Mr.. Wsde of Ohio took occasion of this rufianly
svowsl of club law to let Toombs and his associates
know that, though with the aid OF Northern dough
faces they were four to one AS against the hePuo-
Icsn memte be did not intend to allow them 70

Of answering by .tealthy blsws what he could not

Extraordinary cODjunctures Of affairs always
provide the extraordinary men they need. If the
times demand particular sort of hero, he is as
ture to turn up as pork or molasses in market
bare of those Injuries. 1t is regular case of de-
mand and supply. The same care OF Nature, which
is seen in her sending great rivers to answer the
needs of great cities manifess itsen the provision
she makes Of Representative MeR when the age
lacks them. We might here display considerable
learning by citing the examples of this truth from
Hsrmodious and Brutus 10 Louis Napoleon and
Gen. Walker; but We refrain. Nobody doubts the
fact, or if any body did, the events OF the last
week must have quenched bis skePtclsm forever.
Do We not live in an extraordinary time And
has not the time just brought TO light the great
Preston S. Brooks, the Champion Of the Empire OF
the Sandhillers, the Nephew of his Un,le, very
Representative Man indeed-representa-iSe OF
much more than his dstrct-the Incarnation Of
the Piercean Era-the National Democracy EN-
bodied Ten days ago and who had ever heard OF
him How profound the obscurity from which
this phenomenon was to dart But the Age was
ripe for such birth, and forth from ITS teeming
brain, as Sin from the laboring brow OF Satan,
armed with his gut:a-percha cudgel, the Hero
spraDg to light.
Historians delight TO trace the preparations,
whereby the men VINO have guided their genera
tions through dangerous times have been educated
for their mission. Who does not discern the rudi-
mentsl chief of the Armies OF Independence in the
Msor of Fort Duquesne and the Colonel of Brad

SUM, the p0laara, by which our Brooks was
trained for bis campaign against Charles Sumner.

The 81. LOms Republican says that Mr.. Geo. W.
Brown, Editor Of the Free. State organ az Law
renee, who was recently seized without process Of
airy kind at Kansas City, Missouri, and is now in
prison if not already put TO death, has violated
" every section Of the Slave Law of Kansas"
We apprehend thst this is an reinstatement but
there is no doubt that Mr. Brown must die if that
law is enforced against him, as Pierce, Douglas,
Shannon and Donaldson say it shall be- We have
hitherto given most OF the provisions of this infer
ral enactment; but, now that Federal cannon aud
bayone,s are employed, at an expense to the Trea-
sury Of many thousands Of dollars per day, in Civ

validity, We will print the entire law, exactly as it

withstanding his record on tho subject of
slavery was Of such a black character prior
to that time, according to the Democratic
prints Of the present day. By Providential
net he assembled to the Presidential chair,
and from that day to this he has shown as
fair sheet on the slavery question as any
public man in the whole country. Not an
act in all his official or private life since then
can be pointed out, showing him in the least
degree sectional or favoring the North against

tw Hon. Humphrey Marshall In. late

W Hon. Humphrey Marshall has lately
written letter to the editor Of Kentucky
paper, in which he gives the following good
advice to the South:
The people of the slaveholding States can
elect Mr.. Fillmore without sending the elec-
ton to the House, If they will unite on him.
A union upon Buchanan will not, cannot,
accomplish that result. He is too weak in
the free States to do any good there with
him. declare that do not believe he can
carry single free State, If Mr.. Fillmore were
dropped to-day; feel certain he could not
make no appeal for sectional support, BE-.
cause | abhor all sectionnlsm apart from

crying out for united South consider It and

whom would be safs for the South.
