For several years he published the C0RReaEfriHe
Courier, an ardent free soil paper in the western
part of Pennsylvania. From there he went
among the earliest to Kansas. with the ayowed

he has met with much ahihad1ersioh from tbs

consists in the fact that the great majority Of the
people of Kansas, so far at least. seem to adopt
his views, and presses which called in question
the purity of his motives have been obliged to

The Herald of Freedom. Kansas, comes TO ne
regular. This ID among the best of the Free State
paners published in that Territory. The i'm
nression among many, here as well as elsewhere.
Is that it is deserter from the Free State ranks;
and what was once Free State paper, is nova
supporter of the Border Ruf6sE code and Of
Slayeocrscy. This however. is not the case. Ii IS
a strong supporter of the Free State cause, and
a deadly opponent to the eneroaehments0 ct Slave
IN. This wrong impression in regard to the paper
has grown out of the difficulties existing, which
have divided the Prostate party in ksnsss-eOth
! lahoripe for the accomplishment Of the same
great end-Freedom in Kansas. The cause Of
this difference has been, that while the Herdfd %
Freedom, has advocated the policy of going into
the election of officers, Councillors. Representa-
tives, &C., and thereby gaining possession of tbs
Territorial government, the opposition has main
tanned that none of these laws should DC recOg-
nized consequently no action should be had
under them.-Cro1cn Point, md. Register. bads-
