FIERCE, DOUGLAS, AND CAss ON hANzAs.-
Col. Delahay of Kanzas, free state member of
Congress, furnishes correspondent OF theSt.
Louis Democrat with some interesting notes
of his interviews with leading administration
politicians at Washington, on the subject of
Kanzas affairs. Col. Delahay, it will be re.
membered, is an old democrat, southerner
by birth and education, a disciple and admlrer
of Douglas and believer in African slavery
IN the South, saying in the Kanzas tree state
convention, even, that he had as llet buy
negro as mule. But he cannot stand bor-
der rufianism, especially since it destroyed his
press and types for exposing their rascalitIes.
His first interview was with the PRESIDENT
Pierce was wroth exceedingly at his conduct.
Pierce was rampant Pierce was excited
Pierce spoke bullets. Pierce gave him
piece of his mind. Pierce called the free state
men rebels and traitors, and several other hard
names. Pierce finally read him out OF the
party. "These people" said Pierce, shave
resolved to set the territorial law at defiance,
but if there is any law in the federal govern
ment to compel them, they shall sumit the
law must be obeyed," quoth Pierce. And
Pierce as he said so, looked fierce. There
will be no difficulty on that account, Mr..
president" said Col. Delahay, II always ad.
vlsed submission to the territorial laws, in
famous as they are, until they could be 1e-
pealed; all we ask of you is to keep the Mis-
sourians out of the territory, and We will soon
settle all difficulties Of that kind" This cool
and sarcastic reply rather took the behgerent
servant of the people down-and then he be-
gan to talk like man, instead of an anxious
candidate for denomination. But in spite of
his recovered sanity Of mind, Pierce made it
evident that however low the uullifers want
ed him to sink, he was candidate for the de
grading postion-a willing and servile candi-
date.
Of Judge Douglas, Colonel Delahay
now says: douglas would sell his best
friends for the chance of nomination. If
Pierce and he control the democratic conven-
ton, we have no hope OF jnstice the null
fiers will be sustaind and the democratic par
ty in the North split into fragments"
Gen. Cass is fayorably inclined to the free
state men, but has not vet publicly defined
his position. He said to Col Delahay:
81 expected that Judge Douglas would touch
some, at least. of the questions at issue in his
report but he has not--he merely abused the
Emigrant aid societies and Reeder. 1 don't
see that they have anything to do with the
case.' And again: "They talk about your
being rebels, and deserving rope and hemp
| would like to see them arrestyou; you have
done nothing but what we did in Michigan"
Of the doctrine underlying Douglass report,
he said-''Berrien q think) tried that doctrine
years ago; it was laughed at it won't do
Col. Delahay will take back into Kanzas a
steam printing press and large Office, in place
of the small establishment destroyed by the
border rufhans.

CONTEMPT OF CoURT.-A bill has been re-
ported in Congress granting jury trial in
every case of contempt of court, the fine to
be stated amount and the imprisonment for
a limited period. This is right However
cautious and liberal courts may have been in
the exercise OF the power of commitment for
contempt, personal liberty is too dear to be
subjected to the hazard Of any judges ca
pnce. Every citizen should know the nature
Of his offense, the extent OF the penalty in
Cured thereby, and have right to be tiied
by a jury. Judges themselvea, we suppose,
would desire to see statute regulation upon
the subject, which would take from the pro-
ceoding the arbitrary feature which makes
this necessary exercise of power so offensive
in appeafance.- Philadelphia Esdger.

A YANKEE NoTIoN.-One of the most
amusing facts connected with Mr.. Everett S
late speech reaches us in the columns of the
baltimore Sun. That print says that since the
speech to which we refer acquired so large a
hold upon the public mind, Mr.. Everett has
received proposition from rhetoritician of
some note to relieve him of the task. This
unassuming gentleman represented that he
was perfect in his oratorical acquisitions,
voice, gesture, information, "good emphasis
and good discretion" and could impart to the
eulogy that grace and effect in which he
thought Mr.. Everett was deficient. He only
stipulated for one half the proceeds as a re-
ward for his disinterested services, Mr.. Ev-
erett to receive the other half and the whole
OF the accommodating fame. 1t is needless to
say that the proposition was declined.
