KANSAS AFFAIRS The account OF
affairs at the seat Of government in Kansa
evinces the desperation and wickcdncss OF
the fraudulent legislature. The council.
which is the upper branch, has by resolu-
ton discountenanced the outrage upon
Gov Gcary by the ruffian Sherrod. while
the House fully justified him, according to
the latest dispatches The Kansas Legis.
lature passes all sorts of bills, and upon
being vetoed by Gov. Geary. they are
passed over it. The Lecompton Union, a
most violent pro-slavery sheet. treats Gov
Geary with the utmost contempt and
spurs on the Legislature to treat him as a
nulity.
The latest adviccs state that law has
passed both branches to punish rebellion
with death. Al resistance to Territorial
law or authority is declared rebellion.
This is pretty stringent legislation but
in keeping with legislature elected by
the grossest fraud. 1t will be seen there
can he no real peace in a territory where
such government exists, and seeks to
subdue free people.
nc OH repeating the test oaths, Witch
passed through tho Council, has been
almost unanimously defeated in the House
Gov. Geary fears assassination. 1t is
said that messenger from Gov. Gcary has
arrived in Washington and communicated
with the President who has sen, instrlc.
tions. The administration of Mr.. Blu
chanan owes it to the country to Kansas
and Gov. Gcary to sustain him in the try
ing and difficult position it which he is
placed. Boston Journal

Spurious Tickets.

Does the Sentinel mean to deny that a
spurious ticket, headed "Republican ticket
was circulated throughout the county, for the
benefit Of the Democrats and to the injury
of the Republicans,-Dsmocra.
No. They were circulated in some town.
ships, though not all. They were got up,
printed, and circulated by Republicans, all
of which the editors Of the Democrat we'll
know.
Does the senior editor of the Sentinel
mean to be understood to deny, that be did
not know that arrangements were being
made to print and circulate iti-Dem6crdt
Both the senior and the junior editor of the
Sentinel were entirely ignorant Of the fact
that arrangements were being made to print
und circulate spurious ticket. They were
printed without our suggestion, agency or
knowledge. Whoever asserts to the con-
trary, 10 wilful, malicious and deliberate
liar. The report that we knew something
about the spurious tickets was paraded in
hand bills, and circulated by Mr. Horton
and his friends for political effect and moth.
ing else. 1t was a mean and miserable
trick in them, aHd none but mean and mis-
erable men would stoop to such despicdble
means to secure trump ph. The man who
steals, money and then labors to send an IN.
nocent person to the Penitenliary for the
crime, is worse than a thief. So the party
which, as the Republican has done, prints
spurious tickets, ana then charges the fdct
upon the opposition, is beneath contempt
Do youunderstand!
Does the Sentinel mean to be understood
as denying that Mr.. Strawder was cognisant
of the same facts!-Democrat.
Mr.. Strawder could not avoid a khowl-
edge of the fact that the nomination of Mr..
Horton was displsasing to very MANY '6f
the Republicans. 1t was common talk
They regarded him as incompetent and un-
fit for the duties of Prosecuting Attorney.
These declarations were made openly and
frequently. Republicans came voluntarily
to Mr.. Strawder, and declared their deter
mination to vote for him. That many did
vote for him is evidence by the vote in Ra-
VIENNA township, where Mr.. Strawder run
100 ahead of his ticker.
But we distinctly affirm, that so far as any
means or agency is concerned in procuring
or circulating split tickets, Mr. Strawder
did nothing and knetO nothing whatever of
the plan resorted to, by disaffected Repub.
licans, TO secure the defeat of Horton.
We think our neighbors, for the sake of
their own credit, and the credit of their par.
ty, would do we'll to drop the subject of spu.
lous tickets.
