Kansas Matters.

A meeting was held at Lawrence on the
24th in relation to the attempted assassin
alton of the Missouri bogus Sheriff Jones.
The meeting was presided over by Recder
the member of Congress elect, and Gov.
Robinson and Mr. Reeder addressed the
meeting deploring the act. The act proba-
bly, was done by one of the Border Ruffians
themselves, for the purpose of getting up a
prejudice against the Free State men in
the minds of the Congressional Committee,
and Gov Robinson, at the meeting above
referred to, said that the act was not per-
fromed by Free State man, but that he
had good reason to believe it was all ar
ranged and got up by the enemies of the
Free State cause. Gov. Robinson said:
at may be asked, would they shoot one
of their own men? l have partially limited
at the reason. l have said that in this
matter, mans life is of no account. If
the slave power of this country, in order to
possess this Territory, required that MIR.
Jones should lay down his life, or be ex-
posed to the shots of his friends, then Mr..
Jones must expose his life, then these shots
must be fred. They tried it on Free
State man; it failed. Now it Is necessary,
in order to get UP another trouble, that it
should be a pro-Slavery man in good earn
est; and if the Free State men would not 90
into it, why, | will not say they themselves
will do it but it looks very much as if that
was the case" CicUe. Herald

BILE on my account, as feel quito competent
TO take care of myself and the public mon
eys. s.f &.
The remarks Of the committee upon Tho
subject of settlements with the Treasurer a
the expiration of the term meet with my
approval. Tho law of last winter upon thf
subject is the same it has been for forty
years, and no moro positive. We have al
ways had laws ola "penaI ckarGeter,@ bu
they are not enforced and probably never
saved dollar to the State. Laws nevel
make men honest, and the public must re-
ly upon tho Integrity of her agents, rather
than tho severity Of the code. Ohio may
have suffered loss from unwise men. but il
is Justly her boast that she never lost by
the dishonesty of her financial ageutS.--
More than $60, 900, 900 have passed through
her Treasury, and none of it has been Sto-
Zen, and probably not Si5O,0OO has been
lost by che failure or dishonesty of banks OF
SRdIvsduals. The fear of the law max no
EaaR honest and prevents but little crime.
The severest losses which our State has
sustained have been in the sale of her secu-
rites at a ruinous discount when it aappear-
ed" necessary to maintain the faith and cred
It Of the State. That may have been a
ajWst sacrifice" but certainly. every Ohioan
should be proud of the reflection that his
State has always met her obligations. Ire
joice that the committee are anxious to pre-
vent "a depreciation ofpublic morals" That
however win never be accomplished by
mere spenal Iars." It must be enlighten-
ed education, combined with a catholic
christianity, inaugurated at the heQrthstone
and cherished by lessons of trHh and justice.
A regard for truth should characterize
every act of the public man, and he infiicts
the severeSt blow upon 'Public. morality"
who, availing him 'elfof an official position,
seeks TO injure his fellow citizen by iRdirec-
Sion and mere suspicion" He only should
preach apublic morality" who practices that
virtue himself by being just, honorable and
truthful.
] have said more than intended upon
this Finance report Published as it was

my trust with honor to myself and adyan-
tage to the people Of the State, feel justi-
fed in all | have written.

The Washington correspondent of the
Tribune telcgrahps: "There was no fur
ther action in the Cabinet, to-day, upon the
recognition of Walkers Government, or the
reception of Minister. The question
stands upon its adjustment on the basis
proposed at the meeting last Thursday,
when the majority voted afirnativeIy, sub
sequent to which the President authorized
Mr. Heiss to bring the new Minister here.
Indeed, it IS understood that matters had
progressed so far, that Padre Virgirs pre-
sentation speech was prepared, and the
points either had been, or would be submit
ted to the President for the arrangement of
a reply. 1t may be now assumed, for it is
certain that if Mr.. Pierce adheres to this re-
cent inclination Walker will be recognized
despite any disagreement in the Cabinet
upon the policy of the act.

sent out an agent, to-day, 10 investigate the
