An exchange, givenf to the 'utteranoe of tn,
profoundest falsshoods Of current history, Il
winding up windy column, says: 50 et 49,
"Ths disinterestsd observer win notice through
out the troubles 10 KaIses, an earnest desire OF
the part OF the Democratic party, to remedy tn
evils complained OF in = lawful manner--by con
stitutonal MEANS" .'..,s.... :
just tho contrary has been the case; at leas
90 far a. Unconstitutional means'' have any refer
ance to the United States Constitution or the Or
ganic Act of Kansas Territory. The 6 earne,
desire" of the Democratic party throughout th,
whole Pierce administration, which inaugurate,
the Kansas troubles by changing tho entire pol
icy OF tho Government respecting the Territories
has been to foster national evils by every species
OF ohicanery and political partizan cunning knows
among demagogues. Their savage yell, from
Bangorto Texas, from Carolina to Michigan, wa
: Squatie' Sovereignty" the right of the peopl,
(above the written. letter and spirit of the Con.
stitusion of the United States TO make their owr
laws, even though they be. such as beft only the
Internal regions, but Douglas was the ssdealer'
of the partizan game, and bis jackalls played into
his hand. His sneeze or hiccup was the echo VI
the party throughout their wide spread pot-house
confederacies. Like banded buccaneers they laid
their hand upon whatsoever they willed. The
Missouri River pirates had been grati6sd thus far
by the Squatter Sovereignty" item in the " Bill
Of denominations" Nothing now remained but
TO organize bodies in secret to carry out the spirit
of Anarchy, and up sprang the hydra.hesded mon
stcr,-the Border Ruf6sn Lodge. The admins
trstion, in true rarti.,n spirit, and in obeisanco
to the purpose and .searnest desire'' of the DEM
oeratic party, guarded and defended, aided and
abetted these lawless movements against the COM
mon rights of American citizens. Robbery, IN
suit and murde. of unoffending settlers in the
rerritory-their petitions for protection, much
more their redress of grievances, were treated
with contempt unknown hitherto among the free
people Of this lAnd.-Their legal assemblies were
broken up by the armed troops of the Nation, at
the bidding of the democratic President, and that
too, on the National Sabbath-when even negro
slaves in the South are permitted to enjoy this
day unmolested, whether assembled in church,
grove or field. Not so the Free American citizen
under the benign influence IF government con-
trolcd by the Nigger-worshipping democracy Of the
year of grace, 1856! The rights of Freemen are
not for Freemen; they are for slaves-slaves
of party, and of those who are the owners of
other slaves as ''chsttles."
We wish to be fully understood. The present
democratic government in the Unite1 States is a
foul blot upon the historic page Of American
t'rogress and Civilization. It's Calhounic soph-
isms have driven it to regard the Constitution as
only the Constitution of the democracy-none
others.-AIl democrats ride on the Nebraska Kan
sas Omnibus into the Territory--none Others are
permitted to 90 by any other means of conveyance.
If they 60 there expecting TO enjoy goodly land
"a common heritage Of freemcn-they discover,
when too late to prevent the evil consequences,
that they did not buy their tickets Mt the demo-
cratic Border Rufisn Platform Office, and hence
are to be exterminated as if so many barbarians.
Such is the ssearnest desire on the part of the
democratic party, to remedy the evils complained
of in a lawful manner-by Con .ttutional means,' y

Kansas, assisted by those distinguished Scholars
of the Age, Professors Atchison, Sningfellow,
