The Richmond Enquirer ON
Kansas.

This Journal, after hearty scolding of
the South for its negligence and apathy,
says:
"We do not yet despair of Kansas. We
are of that hopeful class who never con-
cede the miscarriage of their cause until
they are beaten, and no mistake. 1t is not
our policy to dishearten our friends and
embolden our enemies, by too precipitate
foreboding of defeat. When we have
strong faith in principle, we are apt to
be confident of its ultimate triumph. And
so we are not yet willing to surrender Kan
sas to the Abolitionists. We are for max
ing another effort, and vigorous effort,
too, to repair the losses which we have suf-
fered bv sour insane negligence. 1t is not
too late to redeem Kansas, if the people of
the South will only be equal to the urgen-
cy of the occasion. We have friends in
the field, and all that is necessary is to give
them adequate support.
awe discharge our duty in announcing
the necessity of instant effort, and appeal
ing to the friends of the South to redeem
Kansas from the grasp of Abolitionists." ;"
A very feeble discharge Of duty, Mr.. Ed
itor. You should go Kansas,-in lieu of
Turing Southern blockheads there. You
should provide Scipio and Sambo-with
flannel sheets, three piled over-coats, muffs,
and comforters, and Canada furs. Jack
Frost is in Kansas now, and q horrible Alb
olitionist he is-plays the very mischief with
The men of the South, but most especially
with the African.
1t is war against nature,-against eli
interest; against everything
you would wage, and you may as well quit
It first as last. The Southern field of pros.
pagation is not where the thermometer in
winter runs down 90 or 80 degrees below
zero

BLACK AND WHITE SAvAeEs.-Dr. Liv-
ingstone, the African missionary and trav-
eller, has encountered Central Africa; but
we apprehend that these would be exceed
ed by the danger he would incur if be were
to attempt to explore the Southern States
of America. He relates that the natives
of the former region expressed their vague
idea that he was an Englishman, BY saying
"Oh, we know who you are: You belong to
the tribe that love the black man." This,
of course, was an excellent character to bear
among the Central Africans; but among
the American savages it would probably
draw on the bearer the bead of the revolver,
bring the point ofthe bowie knife, and su-
perinduce the uncomfortable investment of
tar and feathers.

"THE FOREIGN ELEMENT."-On the
Democratic general committee of the city Of
New York there are Patrick Dougherty
and eight other Patricks, Micheal O'Dona-
hoe and eight other Micheals, several
Hughs, Dennises and Maurices, and the
Macs sufficiently mark the nationality Of
the balance of the committee, with the ex-
ception of some half a dozen names that
may be Irish and may not. Our adopted
citizens are certainly appreciated in New
York.

RIt is said that certain members Of
Congress, who drew choice seats at the be-
ginning of the session, have actually descen-
ded to the littleness of selling them and re-
firing to the outer circle. Human mean

@The following develops new phase of
insolvency: A little more than year ago
an enterprising German who had acquired
some property was taken with the western
feyer, ana while " laboring under its effects,
soio ms "enects" at sacrifice, and with
his wlfe and children emigrated toward the
setting sun. A few days since he returned,
looking the very shadow of his former self.

Hiring an Assassin.

The Court OF AsSldeS OF Indirect Lore,
a few days ago tried two men, Inconstant
and Brizaeier, for an attempted at murder.
The circumstances were peculiar AS a
peasant woman, named Brizacier, of the
village of Benais, was on the evening of
the 18th of April last, seated at her own
fireside, man rushed into the house, and
suddenly tying pocket handkerchief round
her neck, dragged her, in spite of cries and
resistance, to well in the yard, threw her
into it, fiinging three large stones, weigh
ing from 3Olb. to 4Olb. on her, and after
wards took to flight. Reused by the wo-
mans's cries, the neighbors arrived and got
her out of the well; she was good deal
cut and bruised, but not mortally injured.
She declared that the man who treated her
SO strangely was Inconstant, of the neigh
boring village of Restigne. He was ar
rested, and he attempted to prove an abb; ;
but the woman, on being confronted with
him, swore positively that he was the man; !;
and besides. one of the neighbors who had
seen him enter the house also recognized
him.
As this man could have no cause of an
imosity against the woman, being only
slightly acquainted with her and as she was
too poor to be robbed; and he had not at
tempted to commit robbery, it was sus-
pected that he had attempted the crime at
the instigation of the woman's husband
who was known not only to entertain
moral hatred against her, but to be very
anxious to see her dead as to have offered
several persons different sums of money to
strangle or drown her, or kill her by any
means that might happen to be convenient.
1t was then discovered on Investigation that
the two men had previously been in init
mate communication, and though no posi-
tive proof that Brizacier had actually hired
the other to murder his wife could be OBJ
tanned, yet there was no moral doubt that
he had done SO. The jury declared both
men sGuilty," and the Court sentenced
them severally to 20 years hard labor

LIABILITIES OF RAILROAD COMPANIES.

decided that railroads are not liable in cases

sed damages TO the parents of child two
and half years old, who was killed while
playing on the track.
