Hear MIR. X eitt.

Mr.. Keitt, Of South Carolina, one of the
national supporters of Mr.. Buchanan, made
a speech in the House Of Representatives
on the 18th inst. He took issue with those
democrats who had announced a political
millennium" in the event of Mr.. Buchan-
ans election, and gave his views on the
subject of squatter sovereignty. We pre-.
sent an exstract from this speech below
We trust the reader will reflect upon what
he says If the democracy merely seek to
''amaIgamate strength without establishing
principle" what is the country to expect of
its administration other than doubt and
uncertainty, or a corrupt use Of power and
patronagcg II the doctrine Of squatter sove-
reignty is "mischievous, dangerous and
acknowledgement tends to pave the way
for the other doctrine, that property over
and above the Constitution may be strick-
en- down." is it not suicidal in the South,
or any portion of the South, to affiliate
with men-whether protesting democracy
or not-who subscribe to that doctrine?
Mr.. Keitt said
- 3Sone men had announced
A political millennium in the event OF the cleo
ton of Mr.. Buchanan; but who was to come
info the Senate from the State Of the President
elect, where he bad received thirty Thousand

The Dread Guards.

This military company appeared,
for the first time under their new name,
on parade, in Lawrence, on Thursday,
the 25th inst.-Christmas day. They
were dressed in the new oyercoats
presented to them by the lady students
of Mount Dread seminary, Worcester,
Mass, and made very soldier-like
and uniform appearance. The ball in
the evening, to which we received a
complimentary invitation, was bril-
liant affair, and passed off with great
eela. The supper-table did great cred
it to the lady managers, and partie-
ularly to Mrs. GATES, who had the
general supervision of preparing and
arranging it. The hall was tastefnlly
decorated with the American colors,
and stands of arms neatly arranged
on each side. Dancing was kept ur
till late hour, and the most cordial
good feeling prevailed. The, excel,
lent and soldierly appearance of tho
company on parade, and the good
management displayed at the ball
does honor to the officers of the Com,
pany.

Letter from nza.saobp.e..s-

An esteemed friend in Boston, and
a prominent capitalist of that city, wht Sc
purse has always been open to aid
Kansas in every contingency, wrote US
a long letter, recently, from which We
make the following extracts. He makes
many suggestions which are worthy Of
consideration. lie ssys:-
"If we could have The money which
has been spent in the election, tn build
saw mills and school houses, OF if we
could have half the sum, now, would
not success. be certain? For one, 1
have always hoped for success, without
appealing to any political organization.
The cause is good enough to enlist hon.
est men of all parties; and, except The
supporters of the present administra-
ton. it has done so. Mr. Buchanan
could not have carried single North
ern State, had not the people been told
that he would establish new policy in
Kansas. Nor would Mr.. Fillmore have
received any Northern votes, had il not
been believed that he would protect the
rights of the settlers.
"Some of our friends in the Terri
tory seem to be discouraged, because
Mr.. Fremont is defeated. This is all
wrong, and you must tell them so. The
President of the United States does not
make the laws, nor admit States into
the Union, nor refuse to admit them.
Nor must We forget that the people
of the South are as patriotic now, as
when jefferson drew up the Declars-
ton of Independence, aud Washington
took command of the army. Wi,en
they know the whole truth, they will
act justly, and viii discouptenaDcs
Border Ruffianism. They are beeom-
ing weary, and win, before long, be dis
gusted with their agitating politicians.
The difficulty lies in getting the truth
to them. Their political leaders have
hung up the black cloud of abolition
before them so long, that it is hard to
pierce it. Their violence has proceed
ed chiefly from fear. When they see
that they have nothing 70 fear, so long
as they are loyal to the Constitution.
but everything when they cesse to be
so, then they win throw over the bull
lies, and pus good men 10 their places. "

Wind Mills.

We publish in our advertising col
umns this week notice of Shows
Improved Wind Mill, capable of pro-
pelIing machinery of the largest di-
mensions, and with a steady motion.
These engines are of ancient origin,
and yet, like steam power, but few
years have elapsed since they have
been so far perfected as to be wholly
under the control of those using them.
Now their motion can be regulated
and kept uniform by common cur
rent of air, or during heavy gale.
Mr.. Snow, it seems, has attached
them successfully to burr stones, and
has set them to grinding -four and
meal.
In Kansas, these mills are to per-
form great service in our future his
tory The country seems peculiarly
adapted to their use. During a great
part of the winter we have almost
continual currents of wind, and. in
fact, in the summer there is a gentle
breeze which rises from the South be-
tween nine and ten O. clock in the morn
ing, and is continued until the heat OF
the day is past. There are but few
days in the year when good wind en-
gine may not be run to good purpose
for several hours during some portion
of the twenty-four.

The result'of the Presidential eIac

election. One great proof that the Free
State party are securing firm foot-boN
in this part of the Territory. is found n
the fact that some six weeks since

from the State of Maine, came to o..

in few weeks they put in operation

longing to the company have taken
claims that are all timber, some ffty
miles up the river, andare now engaged
in rafting down logs to saw into lumber
for fencing, building, &c. They hare
found an abundance of choice timber
with plenty of cedar for posts, and sra
preparing to fence and farm, the com.

their pro-slavery neighbors are well
