A Pro-Slsvery Speech.

The Democrat publishes this week u
speech made in the Connecticut House of
Representatives by u pro-slavery Demo
erat, justiying the Dred Scott Decision
and going SO far As TO maintain that Sla-
very exists by the Common Law, and the
Slave Trade was lcgalized traffic, by the
law of nations. The entire speech is
nausCous apology for Slavery made by
one who would as soon cnslavc white men,
provided only they belonged TO the toiline
classes, as the black man. The feeling that
dictates the publication of such speeches
cannot be mistaken. Publishers who give
them currency and call them in editorial
prefaccs, -capital speeches" mean so to
debarch the public mind, il in their pow
or, Us to make it acquiesce in the extern
sion of Slavery into the free States, anC
the revival Of the Slave traffic.

HEALTH oF CHILDREN. Rising carly Is q
habit OF high importance to fix in children,
and in forming il there Is far greater facili.
ty than in other cases. There is natural
propensity in children generally, to early
rising. which needs only to be .gnltifcd and
encouraged. They usually retire TO bed
sometime bec,rc trcir parents, and at day
light, or at least sunrise, are generally
awake, and anxious to rise. Many of them
are actually bred up with difficulty to the
habit of taking a morning nap, which,
when once formed, usually prevails through
life. Let tho father deny himself, 80 far as
to retire early and become m carly riser'al-
90. His health, enjoyment and usefulness,
he may depend upon 1t, will DO perceptibly
benefited. And this may DO connected
with another preventive Of di-ease. active
employment. The morning Is the season Of
activity, the frame ivigorated by repose is
prepared for excrtion, and motion gives
pleasure. The pure atmosphere, 20 much
more bracing than ut other hours, 10 much
sweeter and more exhilanting than che air
of confined chamber, has been prepared to
be br,athed, and like all Of n.turcts medi.
cines, it il superior 10 all which science can
produce. Early rising and Early exercise
may more properly be called food than
medicine, and as they are designed for daily
use, and TO protect us from disease IN !her
than to remove it. Everything except IN ere
sloth invites us-nay, requires us-to train
up our children to use them. The morning
Is the most favorable season Tor exercising
the frame, NJ well AS for making useful Inn .
preston on the mind and heart and who;
ever tries to conduct the education Of hi.
child independently Of this practice, will l'se
some Of the most favorable opportunities.

The yKRr LATEST FROM KANSAS.
Gov. Walker was encampcd outside OF
lawrence with eight companies Of Dragons,
on the 18th. The citizens had decided not
to negotiate with hun. They will not NJ
sist the troops unless fired upon when civil
war will be declared. Gov. Walker has
warrants for the rrrest OF eighty of6cers and
other citizens Of Kansas.
We give, also, the following items from
the Traveller aud other papers, relating
TO Kansas matters -
The Qiindaro Chindopan has strong
editorial from Governor Robinson's pen.
urging the maintenance Of the indeIendant
free State movement, under the organia-
ton Of the Topeka Constitution. He says ::
The Lecornpton Convention may yet
attempt to force Constitution upon us,
without submitting it to vote Of the poo
pie. In that case, IL we still adhere 10 the
Topeka movement, we have already Con-
stitution and State Government with which
to meet them we are FIRST in the field, and
are sure to conquer. When they precsn,

mortal frlm more than ten thousand Of the
voters Of Kansas. With possession Of the
next General Assembly, which we are SUR
to have, We may wipe out every vestige OF

The Kansas correspondence Of the New
York Tribune argues that the pretended
military expedition to y tab is only . blin(
to concentrated great military force in Kan
sas, for the purpo'e Of carrying out the sla
very usurpatiou in that territory.

The Kansas Troubles.

We publish in another place, several
Geographic dispatches giving account OF
a renewal Of the Kansas troubles. The
information is not sufficiently definite to
say with precision what has taken place,
or TO understand fully the causes which
have induced Gov. Walker to send Mill
tarv force to Lawrence. We do not DO
licye that the free State men have proyok-
ed a collision, but that this new turn in
the affairs Of Kansas arises from the irri-
,ation Of Gov. Walker in finding that his
smooth words and jesuitical promises have
not duped the free State men into an ac'
acknowledgement of the validity Ofterritorial
laws. One dispatch says that Gov. Walk
or "has summoned the military TO collect
taxes under the territorial laws" II Gov
Walker LAS attempted this, knowing tn,
great body Of the people Of Kansas have
never submitted to the bogus laws, an'
have never acknowledged their validity
he has done W for some Interior purpose
perhaps to recover his position with ,h,
South, and to obtain prctext for retract
ing his promise relating to tho constita
ton. So far IA resistance TO the bogu
laws is concerned, the people of Lawrence
are no more in rebellion towards then
than they have always been, and as w
trust they always will be, come what may
The attcmp, to enforce these laws, and tC

which will react with terrible power OF
Governor Walker and the administration
We do not doubt but that more definite
accounts will show tha. the treason which
the Lawrence people have committed i
no treason at all, but that some Of thei
acts relating To their local matters have
been seized upon by Gov. Walker as ;
prctcvt for keeping the free State met
"in wholesome fear" by virtue Of UniteC
States troops until the plan for Subjug,
ting Kansas is maturcd.

and dates his communication, Wells, July
II, attacks vs. in the Democrat, ON ac-
count of the ovcrhauling We gave the rc-
solves of the bunker Alfred convention.
The communication was probably written
either in Saco or this city. The writer

tire, aud il he can make anything out OF
it,excepting that il declarcsthat the mass Of
the Democratic party rcpudiates all cor
rect principles, the Protestant religion in
cludcd. lac can do more than most people
But the main object OF the writer is, to
find fault with our allusion To the scnatori-
I'll nominations, and with our declaration
that the liquor dealers may support the
bunker ticket with perfect safety

the County Officer question at all, back

rather ike il, and whether YOU do or not,
We may, at au early period, tell the people
OF the county how some Of the ex-county
officers, and present ones @. the bunker
stripe, have conducted, and are conducting
in their offices. Ii Is well for the County
that its Treasury Is now confdcd TO Re
publican hands, and the tirst opportunity
the people have, they will sec that the

the unfortunate lusitives In tho road. some
two miles east Of town, and ordered them to

The evidence before the jury on the inquest

OF tho party in solf-deienoe. But tho wound
showed that he was shot while running, for
o gentleman who had examined the wound,

was much larger behind than before. He
was shot through tho lower part Of the alb
