Madison and GaIlatina Where would he be
able to find equally eminent menf' Mr.. Buch-
anan replied, that he would not 90 ont of this
room for Secretary of State looking at Mr..
Clay. This gentleman (Mr. Clay playfully
remarked that 'he thought there was no tim
Der there fit for cabinet officer, unless it were
Mr.. Buchanan himself
"Ar. Clay, while be was SO holly assailed
with the charge Of bargain, intrigue and cor
ruption, during the administration of Mr..
Adams, notified Mr.. Buchanan of his inten-
ton to publish the above occurrence; but, by
the earnest entreaiies of that gentleman, he
was induced to forbear doing So"
Several times since the administration of
Mr.. Adams, it has been intimated to Mr..
Buchanan, as we have been informed, that it
might be Mr., Clay's imperative duty to pub
lish these facts, but that he was dissuaded
from it by Mr. Buchanan.
To add additional testimony, we state
and let it be denied, if it can-fhat Mr.. Clay
has now 10 his possession letter which, if
published to the world would place Mr..
Buchanan in an embarrassing position. The
letter comes from Mr.. Buchanan; and no call
on Mr.. Clay will induce him to give it mp,
save one from his country-m est the Senate
of the United States. The ''bargain and sale
conspiracy, with this expose, would place Mr..
Buchanan without the pale of Democracy,
and totally unworthy the confidence of the
place he now holds, and the suffrage of the
people. Why smother up these political blots2
Why surround Mr.. Buchanan with eulogies
which do not belong SO him? Let the truth
be known and let him stand or fall by it..
We have not time to comment on these
chapters in Mr.. Buchanan's political hiSto-
ry to-day. We shall follow them up with
others hereafter, and let the reader make
his own comments.

KANSAS Affairs,


From the Saint Louis Republican,
A few days since we mentioned lhe circum-
stance of eight men having been murGered IN
Franklin county, Kansas Territory, by the ABB
olitionists.
BY the steamer F. Y. Aubry, which arrived
Yesterday, was received the following extra Of
the Kansas Herald in reference to the mat
ter.
We are further informed that the victims
were treated in the most barbar0us manner,
and that their bodies were horribly mutisted.
In some instances, after their throats were cut,
their legs and arms were chopped of and their
eyes gnuged out:
From the Kansas Herald (Extral May 2sl
We have been furnished with the following
startling news by Mr.. Wells, Of Westport, who
left that place last evening. He got the first
copy of the extra that was struck off. 1t may
be relied on as true;

We learn from despat CHI just received by
Col. A. G.. Boone, dated at Pa0la, X. T., May
%, 1856, and signed by Gems. Hieskell and Bar
bee, that tile reported murder Of eight pro-
slavery men in Franklin county, K. T., is but
too true. The dispatch says:
Il is my painfal duty to inform You that Al.

where they murdered three. more men. A

The despatch says the only reason that could

The ELECTIONS IN WAsHINGroN.-The
Municipal Elections in Washington, last
Monday, resulted in the choice of the foreign
candidate for Mayor, and majority of the
American candidates for Alderman. The
government of the United States, through
its Office. holders in Washington, made the
most active efforts to "crush out" the
American party, but failed.

B9-JAMEs B. CLAY, the present occupant
of ASHLAND" country-seat rendered
classic by its association with the name Of
HENRY CLAY, at wing meeting in Frank
fort, KY, on the Oath of May last, declared
that
"MR. FMLMoRE's ADMINISTRATION WAS THE
BEST ADMINISTRATION SINCE THE DAYS OF
WASHINGTON"
After making this just and truthful de-
claration, Mr.. Clay announced that he could
not support Mr. Fillmore for the Presidency!
"He did not think it we'll to rely much on
men," If he (Clay) could be regarded
as fair specimen of the men of the nation,
we would agree with him that it is not "well
to rely on" them. But, as in former days
all men were not all James B. Clay's If
"Mr. Fillmore's administration was the best
administration since the days Of Washing
ton" reasonable men, men of candor and
honesty, unprejudiced men, are likely to
think the country could not do better than
to try him again, and to rely on him much
and confidently. We presume itwould give
Mr.. James B. Clay "much" satisfaction to
rely upon Pierce whose administration falls
below the standard of Mr. Fillmore's or
upon Douglas, whose memorable efforts in
1874 against the principles made immortal
by the support of the elder Clay have not
been forgotten; or even upon Buchanan,
whose connection with the old story of bar
gain and corruption, will forever remain
foul spot upon his escutcheon. Such is the
consistency of men when they stray from
the straightforward path of duty

More Outrages at Hickory Point, X. T.
We yesterday conversed with Messrs. Jones
and Fielding, who were driven from Hickory
Point day before yesterday, and are now on
their way TO Platt county, Missouri. They in
form US that on Sunday last party of Adolf
tionists came to them and ordered them to
leave within half an hour, at the same telling
Mr.. H. d. Jones's two negroes that they (the
negroes) might remain; that Kansas was free
Territory, and that if they remained they
would be sent off and educated.
Two grown negroes said they would stay;
negro gIrl ten years of age would not leave her
master and mistress. Mr.. Jones started, leav-
ing his negroes but before he bad gone far he
was Overtaken and his negroes returned to him;
the scoundrels thinking, doubtless, that their
lawless acts were premature.
All the pro slavery families of Hickory
Point have been driven off at the point of the
bayonet-having only one half hours notice
to leave in. Their horses are pressed into ABB
clifton service, and their provisions stolen by
the AboIitionists.

on the 9Th of February, 1856, and was
again refused. Mr. Marcy, on the 18th OF
February, in reply to the second appllca-
ton, says:
am directed by him 1.-THE President to reply to
your request 10 be received as Minister Penlpoten
tiary to this government from the Republic OF MIC
aragua. that be has again taken the subject into
deliberate consideration but has not seen sufficient
reason for changing the determination made known
to you in my letter of the 2lst December last
Can the Flag, or any supporter of the
administration tell us what happened be-
tween the It'll of February and the l4th of
May, when the Padre was received, to con-
vince the President that the citizens Of Mic
aragua approved or acqniesced in the ex-
isting government? Nothing had occurred
in Nicaragua to enlighten him as to this
important fact; but the Cincinnati Conven-
ton was near at hand, and one of his COM
petitors for the nomination had taken posi-
ton in favor of recognizing the Minister.
Public opinion was fast settling down in
favor of his recognition, and it is not vi
olent presumption to conclude that the
President deemed it polite to fling double
somerset, and drop himself down on the
same side. He did so, but not with much
litheness and agility.
Mr.. Marcy went into the affair reluc-
family. He doubtless had good reasons.
He knows what he and Mr.. Pierce have
been doing, and fears an exposition. There
are developments yet to be made, which
we fear, will not be very creditable to the
administration. We notice among the
items of news by late steamer, the In
dian, from Liverpool, that Nicaraguan
matters have been on the tapis in the
British House of Lords. The following
is scrap of the intelligence telegraphed:
Lord Clarendon further said that since
Walker had taken possession of Nicaragua he
had disposed of good deal Of British prop
erty, and the government had consequently
communicated to the government of the Uni
ted States in relation to the matter.

the case.
