THE PEACE IN KANSAS.

Governor Geary has secured what is called
"peace in Kansas" in a way not at all un-
acceptable to the Border Rufians. He has
induced the Free State men to lay down their
arms; arrested more than two hundred of
them; called into the field eight hundred Uni
ted States dragons, whose chief business
seems to be the pursuit of the Free State lead
ers enrolled q large portion of the Army of
Law and Order which came to destroy Law
renee, as Territorial militia, and placed them
under the command of Colonel Titus, one of
the officers of the Law and Order Army, rec
commended for the purpose by Atchison and
issued his proclamation for al election of Ter
ritorial Delegate, &c. No wonder the 81. Louis
Republican is satisfied. The laws disfranchi-
sing the Free State men remain in force. They
cannot vote without violating their conscien-
tious convictions, and degrading themselves.
ProSlavery men have the supervision of every
thing. Colonel Titus, with his Missouri mill
tia, will, we suppose, guard the polls. Already
Mr.. Whitfield is in the field as the Pro-Slavery
candidate, and his election, we presume, is a
foregone conclusion. We have not yet learned
that the Free State men have candidate.
They are down, under the heel Of the Admin
istration, and Border Rufianism finds shelter
in the shadow of United States troops.
THIS IS Peace In Kansas!

GOVERNOR WISE ON BUCHANAN AND THE
PRICE OF NEGROES

We have elsewhere quoted deliberately from
the Richmond Enquirer, to illustrate what De-
mocracy means in that quarter. The following
extracts from speech of Governor Wise, at
Buchanan ratification meeting in Richmond on
June l3, are in the same vein, but coming
from Governor, and such a Governor, they
deserve to stand alone. He, with Mr.. Buchauan,
was in favor of running the Missouri Compro.
mise line to the Pacific, and says:
"The cost of not running that lineto the Pacific
may be valued thus to Virginia We now get a
thousand dollars for a sound slave; we would
then have gotten from three to five thousand dol
lars for an operative in the gold mines of Califor
MAJ four hundred thousand multiplied by FIVE
thousand, or even three thousand, will show our
immense loss. One billion of dollars would not
compensate Virginia for her loss in not running
the line on to the Pacific. The North had fixed
the line. They had the advantage of it until
annexation. 1t was then our turn, and we did
not take it. That was not Mr.. Buchanans fault
Had it so been fixed, 'ebo shins and gizzard feet
true couldn't have poked their noses north into
the dominion of Jack Frost, but then Free-Soi-
ism couldn't have poked its nose south of that
line, az it has since the Compromises of 1850.
Yet, though thus proposed by the South and
by Buchanan, the pharisees and hypocrites who
are now bowling over the repeal of the Missouri
Compromise were the very men 10 oppose the
extension of the Missouri line and TO making
it q fixed fact. Their reproach to Mr.. Buchanan
and to the South is equalled only in injustice
by the reproach which some Southern men have
cast, in npbraiding Mr.. Buchanan for the pro-
posed extension Of the line to the Pacific. The
generous and just Douglas has done him justice
in that behalf, and has taken upon himself his
commission of participation in the act. Mr..
The national era. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1847-1860, 1856-10-09

Buchanan was equally sound on the Kansas
Nebraska bill. He was not a member Of Con-
gress, nor of the Cabinet, when that measure
was proposed and passed"
Imagine the feelings of d Virginia patriot, in
view of this immense loss in the price of ne
groesl Will not the Democracy of Pennsylva-
MIA come to the rescue? Will they not give
Governor Wise Kansas, to atone for the loss of
California? Wicked people, those miners of
California, to damage the price of negroes at
this rate.
In the same speech, Governor Wise claims
that Mr.. Buchanan's nomination was effected
by Virginia, and that it was due to that State ::
"He went for the nomination, lastly, because
it was the emphatic voice of Virginia. 1t was
not the movement of him, (Mr. Wise,) but it
was the movement of Virginia. She made it /;
without her it would not have been made; and
she had the right to make it. If any State
could in justice claim the right to have her
wishes preferred, it was Virginia, in this NOM
nation"

WHAT WILL YOU DOT"

The great question the Disunionists of the
South are constantly putting to one another, is
"Suppose Fremont elected, what will you do ?''
All agree that the Union must be dissolved, but
no ono is prepared to say how or when. That
is the question which perplexes them sorely.
Gov. Wise, in his Disunion speech at Rich.
mond, after every outburst of his sympathetic
hearers against the Union, should Black Re-
publicanism triumph, would put the question,
"What will you do?" Was it with the secret
purpose Of keeping theirrage within due bounds ?
1t was desirable to gain the credit Of being a
very bold man, without running his neck into the
halter. All, he took good care of that Hear
his modest disclaimer of responsibility:
"If it tRepublicanism) shall prevail against
Democracy, God knows the question fearfully
arises, What aoiU we dos To decide this, will
not depend upon one or two. This puts the
argument of the election in its proper light /;
and whilst l feel the gloom of the responsible
position in which ] am placed, nay console
myself, sir, and do, that I am 6ut an humble
State Erecutire o6fcer-thdt 1 aciU be 6ut min

and judicial poacer may control me i; but, aboce
all, that which is Adore Legislative, judicial, and
erecntt0e po'cer-the constitutional poacer OF the
people-may control me. lam glad that flare
these great instruments to defend me against
the aceigH and pressure Of the responsibility
achich IS noac so heacy, and may be so much
greater in the future"
No doubt of it, Governor. Your modesty is
equal to that of the valiant Pickwick. 1t is a
precious privilege to be able to make Disunion
speeches-to incite the People to rebellion and
civil war-and then, when you are called upon
to lead, to point out what is to be done-to put
on meekness as garment, and reply, az am a
humble individual-but poor Executive off.
cer-the mere instrument of many masters
it is not for me to say, thank the Lord for all
his mercies!"
But this meek disclaimer did not prevent the
chivalric Governor from growing fervid again,
kindling his hearers to fever heat But again,
that question:
ado you ask me what I will do2 I say TO
you that reserve my ansicer for tie present.
Considering the question deliberately, calmly,
and being well fortified in the thought, ] DELHI
erately say to you that aoiU do rhateper you
aoiU back me an, TO saUe as, or die Tremen-
dous applause.
A most discreet conclusion, in which the
Governor consults his own safety, and that of
the Commonwealth. The Legislative and Judi.
cial power, and then the People, in State
Convention, must first determine what is to be
done, and by the time the decision is reached,
the Governor will be able to shield himself
from all responsibility, by writing Ger before
his title.

peace-loving, conservative Administration
Remember the Ostend Manifesto-that robber
declaration-that insult to the civilization of
the nineteenth century. Will the man who
plotted in solemn conclave the robbery of
nation with which We were at peace, bound by
sacred treaty of amity, and openly attempted
to Justify it, on the tyrant's plea of necessity,
Tor the purpose of bringing into this Union six
hundred thousand more slaves, and giving the
Slave Power a preponderance in the Senate,
be likely to fulfil the millennial expectations of
dreamy Conservatism?
The mischievous agitators are the Disunion-
lists and Propagandists who support Mr.. Blu.
chanan? If they succeed, they will be more
insolent and aggressive than ever. They will
claim that the repeal Of the Missouri Compro-
mise has been ratified, and the dogma of the
nationality of Slavery, has been sanctioned by
a majority of the American People. They
will regard and treat the free States as con-
quered provinces, whose people can always be
frightened into submission by the threat of
Disunion eHd the threat will be repeated as
often as necessary, with increased confidence
in its potency.
Does any sane man expect that excitement
under such provocation would die away? No!
The revolution in the free States, disappointed
of its aim, checked by temporary reverse,
would but rise and sweep onward with irresist-
ible force, to its consummation. There will
be no peace, no concord, no stop to agitation,
until Kansas be free, and the Territories of
the Union secured, beyond doubt, to Free
dom and Free Labor.
Elect Fremont, and in so doing you will dem
onstrate to the world the miserable impos-
ture of the Disnnion cry; put period to the
political existence Of the DULLES and conspira-
tors who are insolently threatening the Gov
ernment, should a majority of the People vote
against them stamp the brand of infamy on
the Ostend Manifesto assert the Freedom of
Kansas and the Territories declare that Sla-
very shall not use the Federal Power for its
extension and ACKNOWLEDGMENT; and then,
trembling Conservatism might rest in peace.
The scenes of violence which have disgraced
our Territories, the Ruifianism which an over
awed Administration has tolerated, if not en-
coura ged, would cease I: it would soon be
proved that there is enough virtue in all sec
tons of our country to sustain Just, firm, and
bold Administration in the enforcement of
Law and maintenance of Order.
