NEW STYLE

NEW STYLE.
M Enamelled Collar surpasses every other
IL style in point of ~neatness, comfort and econo-
my. Being cut and shaped upon scientific princi-
pies they cannot fit otherwise than with beauty
and ease.
BENG highly polished, they will not hold dust.
as does the linen Collar, but will keep clean and
re'aln their shape. This advantage with the lo,o
price Qess than the cost of washing the ordinary
Collar renders them far cheaper than any other
style made. No one who designs travelling should
be without a full supply.

the speeches of Messrs. Lincoln and

is an effort made to show that one

find no such remarks in them. The

find that the cure is worse than the

lsnrni us that ihc inchoate Territory
of Dacotah has already civilized set
Elements planted in it, which have
been there for many years. BY the
act passed by Congress to enable
Minnesota to organize as a State,
tho Western boundary was ma le to
run alongt the Red River ofthc North,
from the point where it crosses the
British boundary, to its source in
Lake Traverse. and thence through
that sheet Of water and Big Stone
Lake to the southern end Of the lat
Ter, where the boundary strikes off
due South to Iowa. This leaves the
county OF Pcmbina west Of Red Riv.
or, aud in it are located all the set
ilers Of the Red River colony, and
the town of pembina.
There may be other settlements
also in it, for it appears the county
has elected six delegates to the Con.
'titntiunal Convention, which would
argue it to be tolerably populous
somewhere. In view of the fact
hat these people are located 5eyond
he jurisdiction fixed by Congress for.
he future State of Minnesota, it is
proposed 10 exclude their delegates
rom the Convention, on the ground
hat they bclongeto the Territory OF

which the Minnesota bill provides. .

md thus there will be an immediate
'ecessity for appointing some sort
u government for them. Every.

More Riots in New York.
New YoRK, July l3


An attack was made late on Satur
day night upon the Metropolitan Police
force and the hospital buildings at Sc
gums Point, by about 100 oy stermen
and others who are hostile TO the selec.
ton Of that locality for a temporary
quarantine. The assaiants fred over
100 shots upon the Policemen, and
finally were driven away by Captain
Walling bringing out his cannon and
howitzers. Ii is supposed that several
Of The assailants were killed and wound
ed. None OF the police were injured,
although q number narrowly escaped
being fatally shot.
The greatest excitement relative to
the attack prevails upon Staten Island.
The sheriff Of the county and the Quar-
atine Commissioners have been notified
OF the occurrence, and are making &C
tive Preparations to resist future at.
tack, as also to ferret out the perpetra.
tors Of the present assault.
One other fearful riot occurred in
Second Avenue, near Fourth street,
last evening, arising out Of difficulty
Of the Germans with the Metropolitan
Police. Clubs, pistols and guns were
freely used, and one man is known to
be killed. while large number were
wounded.

Awkward.

Gov. ROBERT J. WALKER said some
things in his Topeka speech he would
now, in all probability, like to blot out.
We do not refer to his pledges abou,
submitting the constitution to the peo.
pie, but some Of the side talk, drawn
out on the spur Of the moment by the
goading questions Of the AUDIENCE
For instance, Gov. WALKER sad:
"You are about TO have assembled
here at Topeka, next week, what is
called the State Legislature, for thay
tell you that they are now about to
convene a Legislature for the State Of
Kansas. Who elected that LegislatureY :
[ A voice: The people. the peoplel
Why, the whole vote given for y our so.
called constitution, as claimed by your.
selves, was but one thousand seven hun.
dred and thirty one, whereas there are
now registered over ten thousand votes,
as residents here on the 18th of March
last.exclusive Of the thousands omitted,
or who have arrived here since that date
The people! Do you mean to tell
me that one thousand seven hundred
and thirty one votes constitute the whole
number Of votes in the Territory OF
Kansas! A voice: That was year
and a half ago.1 But, should one
thousand seven hundred and thirty .one
votes a year and half ago impose a
constitution for all time to come upon
tho present people OF Kansas"

speech was made the constitutional

Governor spoke-held after a registry

rived since that date; and what is the
result? Here is the official vote as we
find it in the Leavenworth Times OF
June 9Th.

Here we have the whole vote, inclu.
ding about 100 Mssourians, who came
over into Linn County. and we're reg.
istered and voted. About sixteen hun.
drsd votes out Of a registry Of over ten
thousrnd! Now, Mr.. Walker, just re
peat what you said at Topeka, and sec
whether it sounds in this connection!
"Why, the whole vote for our so.
called Constitution. as claimed by
) ourselves, was but 1,131," out OF over
10000. "The People! Do you mean
to tell me, that 1871 votes constitute
the people Of Kansas? Should those
1871 votes make Constitution for
the whole people OF Kansas?
Well. Mr.. Walker, If 1871 voters, a
year and half ago, are not the people
Of Kansas and should not be permitted
to make a constitution for the people
of Kansas, what would you think Of
making constitution by 1000 voters!
Do y ou think that 1000 voters constitute
the people Of Kansas? II 1871 voters
year and half aro did not fairly

can 1000 voters now, when the popula.
ton has increased ten fold, represent

their work, and the dignity Of their ca,
ling must be acknowledged, and no,
coldly acknowledged only, but thor.
oughIy appreciated. The community
hardly yet begins to realize its debt Of
gratitude, honor and reward 10 the
teachers Of its schools.
These things are obvious; but what
practical methods are best adapted to
secure the great end Of giving to all the
youth Of the State the best education
they orc willing TO receive, and are
capable OF receiving, is not so clear
What provisions for the education Of
teachers should be supplied; how far,
il at all, the colleges Of the State, and
especially those more Immediately un Il.
der legislative control, may be made
parts of the general plan OF education,
or servicabe to the special purposes Of
educating teachers; and what may be

Tho South Down on the President

attempt to sustain Walker in Kan
sas. lie has heretofore served the
cvu,ii ~ ti.O ",..--. -rL:- "L:i:,,. ~
now when they need his services
most, he begins to manifest somt
weakness about the knees. But the
Democratic! shareholders of the
South, feel ttidt Buchanan Is espo.
cially indebted to them for his cleo
tion, and they are determined to
"bring himup to the cratch"without
any eqiivstating. pero is an article
from the Richmond South (Dem, }
which lays the LASH on the President
without much compunction.
"If Mr.. Buchanan entertains the
idea that he can triflc with the feel.
ings Of the Southern Democracy and
may saicl Fdeiy their vengeance, he
is at liberty to undertake the oxper.
imcnt. But isia hardly possible that
80 sagacious a politician can mistake
the apologetic tone Of "a few placemcn
for tho genuine voice of tho South
ern people. Though tho Southern
members of the Cabinet should in.
cline to disparagc the spirit of the
State RightsDemocracy, the distinct
and emphatic uttcrance of the Geor.
gia and Mississippi Conventions
would not allow of 80 fatal an error
as to suppose that any regard for
the integrity OF Party, or any attach.
nent to an Administration will com.
pei silent acquicscence in the Kan
sas outrage. II Mr.. Buchanan at .
tempts to shield Walker, he will on
ly expose his own body to a mortal
stroke. There is no divinity about
the person Of President which the
Democracy are afraid to Violate
The instant the Administration as
sumes the responsibility of Walkers
treachcry, that instant will the sub.
lltern sink <pt ofsight and the Pres
dent become tho object of denunci-
alton, which is now levelcd against
lis Gppointco. But, there will be no
in the matter. The
Democracy Of the Souti, are rcluc- ,,
lant to identity Mr.. Buchanan with
Robert j. Walker. They will not I
abandon an Administration which ,
hoy brought into power, except up. .
IN compulsion of the most irrcsisti-
bic and unequivocal evidence of its
.reachcry to the South. They are ,
not governed by impulse, and will
lemean themselves with the dignity
and dccorum due to the gravity Of
the occasion. But woe betide the {
man who mistakes their forbearanco.
Though he be President of the Uni.
ted States, with a servilc party
at his back, and eighty millions a
year in his pocket, he cannot stiflc
the voice Of the Southern Democra
cy."
