BORDER RUFFIANIsM The following is an
extract from the genuine speech delivered at the
sacking of Lawrence, by David R. Atchison, late
Vice President of the United States, and warm
supporter of James Buchanan -
Throw into the Kanzas their printing
presses, and let's see if any more free speeches
will be issued from them. Boys, do the sher-
IFS entire command, for too day Mr.. Jones is
not only sheriff but deputy marshal, 50 that
whatever lie commands will be right, and un.
der the authority of the United States, and for
1T you will be amply paid as United States
troops, besides having an opportunity of bene
fitting your wardrobes from the private dwell
ings of those internal Niger stealers. The re-
solve OF tho entire South, and of the present
administration, is TO carry the var into the
heart OF the country, and never-never to
slacken or stop until every spark of free State,
tree speech. free niggers, or free, in any shape,
is quenched out of Kanzas! ="
The above is from the speech of the man who
first moved for the repeal of Missouri compromise.
and who has counselled the President and his of
6cials in the commission of all the internal out
RACES in Kanzas. Can the Democrats of the free
States back up party led by such ruffians for
leaders

THIRTY-FoURTH CONGRESS.

FRIDAY, Aug. l.
In the Senate, Mr.. Cass and Mr.. Stuart pre-
sented petitions from citizens OF Michigan,
praying for the admission OF Kanzas with the
Topeka constitution. On motion of Mr.. Sew
ard a resolution was adopted directing the
committee On commerce INQUIRE whether
it 10 e,-I7edient to squire tlat Tie hre rooms
ofsteam vessels be constructed OF fire proof
material.
The Senate then considered the report of the
committee on Indian affairs. The report states
that no further legislation is necessary in the
case of Richard W. Thompson, who made an
agreement with the Menomonee Indians for
one third of the money he should pressure for
them, IN addition to the amount allowed for
Their lands and their removal across the Mis-
sissippi. He obtained S240 600 from the gov
eminent, and modifying his original agree
ment, consented to take $40, 900 as his fee
The bill past this last Congress authorizing
that this be paid, with the proviso that
Thompson should get the consent of the In
dams, which he did. But complaint is made
tfat commissioner Mannypenny prevented
the payment on the ground that the bill
signed by the president was not the bill passed
by Congress. The proviso having been by
some means omitted theretrom. The matter
was debated but no definite result arrived at
Adjourned till Monday.
HoUsE.-Mr. Brooks, Ie elected from s. O.
appeared and took the oath.-The Kanzas
contested seat case was then taken up and the
reading of Mr.. Reeder's statement was finish.
ed. He quotes both from Buchanan and Case
to show that delegate may be admitted aI.
though his election is in the absence of anv
specific law. Mr. Whitfield spoke in his own
behalf, contending that Mr.. Reeder was mere
ly a volunteer and not legal contestant for
the seat.
Mr.. Washburn of Me. replied to Mr.. Stea
phens, eontending that from uniform princi-
pie and precedent of the House has the right
to inquire, as it has inquired in the pre-.
sent case, into the question of fact, whether
there was or not legislature which could
pass laws oil binding force. 1t had been proved
incontesti6ly that the Kanzas legislature was
elected by the aid OF citizens from Missouri.
ne insisted that Mr.. Reeder be admitted as
the proper representative of majority of the
legal voters of Kanzas.
The first resolution reported bv the COM
mittee on elections, that Mr.. Whitfield was
not entitled to a seat as a delegate from Kan.

with the united South in his favor were. Cad

Peck OF Mich, all Buchanan democrats.
The second resolution, that Mr.. Reeder be
admitted to the seat, was rejected by yeas S8,

Mr. Washburn of Me. asked but was de-
med, unanimous consent TO pay Mr.. Reeder
mileage and per diem to date.

We have very little, if any, confidence in

daily issue reaches 10000 and that 1t has always

remarkable fact, to be noted of the Herald the ia

how much more of reading people the inhabi
