Gov. Walkers late proclamation states
sundry important ficts, from which give
you the following, in his own words:
1T was a cause of deep regret to him,
Gov. Geary, sas wei as to myself, that the
census and registry were So in, omplere in
many counties, and that in fifteen counties
organized as election districts under that
law territorial law, 'and enii led to vote
for delegates to the convention, there was
neither census nor registry, and therefore
they could not participate in any man Eer in
the choice uf de egates on that most impor-
tant occasion, yet no power 10 remedy the
evil was vested by law in either him or me-
The appointment OF members of both
branches of the Legis ature, is bused 'on the
census
The law prohibited the m from apportion-
ing members TO counties not embraced IT,
the census
'None Of those fifteen counties could vote
for delegates to the convention
1t is not for voting at such an election
that the Republicans OF Kansas have been
abused. Gov. Walker calls it 'deplorable
circumstance great calam ity,' and yet
word of complaint from the sufferers is
treated with scorn.
This is the way the people are treated in
the selection of delegates TO form a consti-
tuition, and .he President, in his Silliman
letter, dares 10 assert that the reason why
Republicans were not registered, was
because they would not be registered What
chance have these wronged pioneers for JUS
tice, when falsehood from such high sources
is boldly published to bias the people against
them!

Party instrumentation.

To the Editor of tht Belmont Chronicle:
In government like our own, where the
officers from the highest to the lowest in its
various departments, are elective. the choice
of rulers is matter of the most vital i'm
portance; for upon Their faithful and impair
tiaI discharge of the duties of their several
offices, depend the welfare, prosperity, and
happiness OF the people. We, the people
have therefore an important interest in this
matter. And when candidates are proposed
for our support, we have the right-t is the
privilege OF the humblest citizen-to satisfy
every reasonable inquiry as to their quaifi-
cations in Ill respects for officers; and also
in regard to their honesty and integrity as
citizens And further, we have the right to
demand, unquestioEable evidence that they
will. if elected, faithfully serve their con-
stiiuents, and, so far as possible promote the
general good of all. And no man, worthy
the confidence and support OF the public,
will refuse to satIfy, So far as he possibly
can. all proper Inquiries touching those
puiuts. But our common interest and right
in these respects BY no means justify the
misrepresentation, petty insult, abuse and
defamation that are too frequently bestowed
upon those, VITO are brought forward to re-
ceive the public vote. Again, there may
be, and there often are, peculiar olrcum-
stances connected with the nomination Of
candidate; circumstances upon the right
understanding of which, depend, in an
eminent degree, his success. Such is the
position of the present union candidate Tor
office of county Treasurer, Mr.. Alex. Ham
mond. His political opponents take ad-
vantage of the present state of party affairs,
and msrepresent him among both the Amer-
cans and Republicans. Now from this con-
sideration | wish TO make statement of a
few facts in the case; and do so with full
confidence in their correctness as ! am per-
sonaly and wei acquainted with him-with
his political sentiments, and with him as a
neighbor.
Mr. Hammond is politically, and processes
at all times 10 be, all American But he
also holds in common with the Republicans,
the great and Distinguishing principle, the
basis ol that party; namely, THE NoN-Ex
TENSION OF SLAVERY BY LEGISLATION d.
REcTLy OR INDIRECTLY. Upon such ground
on these data he received his present nomi-
nation. As SUCH acknowledging his o5li-
CATION to these considerations, he is before
the public. | have this declaration directly
from himself, and it may therefore be relied
upon as correct
One word about him as a citizen. Mr.
Hammond is universally esteemed here as q
man of strict integrity. In his dealings ne
is distinguished for his uprightness ant
honesty in every respect. There is indeed
but one opinion Of him here and tha, is
that hewill, if elected county Treasurer
discharge the duties and responsibilities o
that office in manner entirely satisfactory
to his polctica friends and the public, anG
with credit and honor to himself.

Philadelphia Election Frauds.

There is 10 longer the slightest doubt but
Pennsylvania was carried by the Democ-
racy at the State Election last fall by cor
rupton and the grossest frauds. and the re-
suit of that election settled the Presidential
question. The Grand Jury of Philade lphia
has been investigating the frauds in that
county, and has returned upwards of fifty
bills Of indictment against the Democratic
election officers, for the frauds perpetrated
by them IN October. 1856. The Pniladelphia
Netps says:
I'VE trust that those parties will now
learn that they cannot pretend to resign
their situations under the City and General
Government and assume the duties OF elec-
tiun officers. and cheat and deiraud the pub
lie with impunity these men prop
erly punished, we might hope to see u re-
turning of faii elections

Another Red Patch.

OF our candidate for Representative, saws

Brue, Mr.. Patton is a mechanic, and if the
people should not see proper to elect him
he can "peg away"-it is an honorable Cd H.

NEGRO VOTERS IN LOUISIANA
horrible! negroes vote in Louisiana! in
one of the counties of Louisiana, number
of men tinged with negro blood have been

now vote the Democratic ticket, and when
an attempt was made to exclude from the
polls, the Democratic candidate for State
Treasurer aud the executive Committee OF

their right. Whatever goes for Slavery

An Honest Northern Locofoco.

A sham Democratic paper published at
Syracuse, New York, utters the following:
"Standng upon the ample panks of the

ogists but the adrccates and defenders of that
peculiar institution. We claim for Amer j.
can Slavery that it is and has been one Of
the chief BULwoRKs of our liberty-while
we claim that it has ameiorated the condi-
on Of the slave"
This is frank and honest avowal. That
editor is blessed with more integrity than
many Of the Locofoco leaders North, who
profess opposition to Slavery while they d.
all they Can to throttle Freedom.

and normal condition of the la6orinq man

Mr.. Buchanan's Letter Literally
Translated.

Slavery is not sectional, but national. It
exists practically in Kansas, and theoreti-
cally in Nebraska, Oregon, Minnesota, and
New Mexico. No right thinking man can
question this fact. In order to destroy its
national existence in Territories, the peo-
pie thereof in the settlement of the terms Of
their State Constitutions must exclude it by
a clause introduced for that purpose. This
right, therefore, claimed by the South exists
in its nationality right which the North
ern Free Soil Democracy at this moment
deny and oppose with al their might.
We have to say that so valuable is South
ern Slavery in itself, so wholesome and
salutary in an industrial and sacial view
and so conservative of rational, true iand
sound Democracy, we believe its defense,
its propagation and extension should be re-
garded as an essential part Of the Demo-
cratic creed in all sections. We spurn the
idea that it is sectional.
Only the other day a journal in Illinois
announced itself in favor of the re-estab,
!ishment of slavery in that state. Give Us
enough slaves; abolish the unjust andlun.
equal laws again st the African Slave trade

South, and give every industrious and thrifty
white man a chance to become profitably q

NEGROES no Go.

In Iowa the clause IN the new Constitu-
iion allowing negroes to vote was Toted
down by a tremendous majority. In Min
neso;a the Constitution prepared By the Re-
publican branch of the Convention as wei!
as the Democratic branchs ignores negro
suffrage entirely. The Constitution as sub
mitiet allows "persons of Indian blood who
have adopted the customs and habits OF CIV
ilizstion" to vote, ,s.but none of regro blood.
The Black Republicans in Kansas who
framed the Topeka Constitution went still
farther and prohibited free negroes from set
tling in the State.-Gas. 3 Cit.
And yet the Editor in the next breath
will tell his readers that the Republican
party would extend the right of suffrage 20
the negroes. The reader who cannot see
the cloven foot under such glaring incon-
sisteucy must be ind indeed.
