Gov. WALKER A SwMDLER.-The Rich
mond South tells the following hard story oil
R. J. Walker. II the facts are as the South
states them-and it defes contradiction
Walker ought not only be kicked out oil
Kansas, but out of the suciety of honest men;
and the President ought to be denounced, as
he has been, for appointing and keeping such
n man in office. The South says:
When Robert j. Walker was Senator from
Mississippi, he asctrtnined that an old gentle
man in Middlesex county in this State was
disposed Ia sell large estate in negroes
Accordingly, in company with colleague in
the House OF Representatives, Walker made
the old gentleman visit, and after pro-
t-acled negotiation succeeded in purchasing
the slaves. And he got them on good terms,
for the old gentleman-a devoted Democrat
was charmed by the graceful cundescensi"n
OF the distinguished Senator. The aggregate
price OF the negroes was something more
than forty thousand dollars, for which Walk
er gave a note or draft payable in New Or
leans. But the old gentleman would not sell
his slaves except on condition that they were
to be kept together on plantation In the
South.
Nell, the slaves were taken to New Or
leans, were put upon the block and dispersed
to the four winds-the purchaser realizing II
considerable profit by the "transaction." The
note or draft malured, was presented for
payment, was protested, and from that day to
the present time not cent has been received
either by the Old gentleman or his keirs, for
fifty thousand dollars worth of negroes =
Meanwhile Walker has lived in uflluence, and
is believed now to be n millionaire. win
some OF Walkers apologists impcach the cor.
rcctness of this story! Let them try it,
The substantial truth of the statement shall
be verified by testimony which nobody can
question.
The South says this is only an isolated
instance, and that there are many Others in
Walkers career that may yet be written. For
the honor of human nature, We hope not.
