A southern squaite r down ON the Pres.
tdenlsa Npecial MessaRe.

tdent's special Message.
A Kansas settler, who signs imself "a Jefier-
sonian Virginia squat,er,' writes from Leaven-
worth City, under date Of Feb. 4th, to the Mis-
souri, Democrat, from which we cut two or three
paragraphs:
To The Editor Of tie Missouri Democrat:
SiK: We hare received the special message
oil President Pierce ia relation to Kansas Affairs
There is great rejoicing in Platte county. The
general Message pleased theui--it caused them
to pronounce Pierce sound TO the core; but this
special message has delighted them beyond ex-
preston, by its promises of inaction, and the
nnbf',shing efrontery with which it throws The
odium OF the ouMges prac,iced here on the
pcaceablc citizens Of the territory who endured
them. We, the Squatters Of Kansas, guilty OF
no ohcnsc save submitting TO iliega! proceedings,
which we have no, yet the strength TO repel, are
placed in the position of revolutionary bandits,
while borderers, who have shot down our citi-
zens, elected our Legislators, and threatened US
with determination, are alluded to in terms OF
gentle reproof, dilated with an excuse for their
setf-tiefensire conducts
came to Kansas a pro-sla very man; but cdu-
Gated to respect the law and scorn its breakers
no matter what their excuse-I did not could
not long remain in their ranks. No tue South
ern gentleman cAn remain in such a party as
that which styles itself law and order party
OF Kansas, unless he happens to be an office-hol-
der, or to have invested NIL his capital in the
power of these men.
When read this special message of the Presi.
dent, ! thanked God was Southerner. No
Southern man would be mean enough to hetray
his constituents as Pierce-has betrayed his North.
ern bret ern, dare to libel them as Pierce has
libelled the peaceabe, intelligent, conservative
New England emigrants to Kansas.
President Pierce's decided .tort,, as politi
clan, is TO create political capital for his political
opponents. If his course, during his occupancy
of the Presidential chair, does not sustain this
proposition, this special message will amply de
monstrate the fact He deliberately destroys
the force or refutes his tavoritc theories-knocks
sqnatter sovereignty into an extremely cooked
hat by dec'aringits exercise revolutionary, and
there is hardly one historical statement in his
message which cannot be dsproTcd by incontro
| vcrtabIe evidence.
