SENATOR DouG1As.-The Washington
correspondent of the Traveller writing
on the 18th ult., says:
Senator Douglas appeared inhis seat
to-day, for the first time this session.
The greatest possible improvement is
visible in his appearance since his
marriage, Last session. he wore ill
trimmed whiskers, long hair, turn.
down collar, seedy dress coat and had
. decidedly shabby look. Now, his
face is clean shaved his collar stands
stiff and glossy his linen looks deci-
dedly respectable he wears his hair
much shorter than usual /; and, to crown
all, he appears in new suit of black,
a neat-fitting frock, instead of the shah
by old dress coat, and looks about ten
years younger than ever. On coming
into the Senate chamber he was con-
graduated by all, and by none more
warmly than by his political oppo-
80 It is said that a bit of q row occur
red in the Cabinet after the Presi-
dents message was made public,
which is thus explained by Wash
ington letter writer: genrrg ltg~
Postmaster Campbell had assured
his Pennsylvania friends that the mes
sage would be very soothing in re-
gard to Kansas and slavery, and cal
culated to smooth the way for the new
administration. This he honestly sup.
posed /; but jefferson Davis got the
Presidents ear, and put the birthstone
into his ink when Campbell and Mar
cy were away" H.i. 1.9
It is stated that the message is de
nounced in the boldest language by
men who stand high us the leaders Of
the Democratic party. 77Hait ~ ho11
The charge made by Senator Brown
Of Mississippi, that Senator Wilson Of

ton, at the Washington House, wher'
it was alleged to havcl been made
Other gentlemen, also, who listened
to the conversation referred to, asscr
that Gen. Wilson did not utter an,

The latest accounts from Kansas
Territory are highly favorable to the
Free State cause. Col. Titus and his
border rufian" followers have been
mustered out of service, and are now
on their way to share the fortunes Of
Gen. Walker in Nicaragua. Judge
Lecompte has been removed for i'm
properly releasing . prisoner charged
with numbering poor David Buffum Of
Ncwburyport. His successor is said
to be a'man Of, integrity and ability.
Marshal Donelson has resigned, and o
good citizen of Ohio takes his place.
We hope to see no more rufian out
RACES under the form of law. We
commend the President for removing
Lecompte from the position he has dis
graced.
OF the one hundred Free State pris-
oners arrested ON charge Of murder
at the assault upon the town Of Frank
lin, nealry half have escaped, it is in
timated by the connivance of their
guards. Sixteen have recently been
tried before Judge Cato, and all were
acquitted by q jury composed of seven
Slave State men and FIVE Free State
men. Only nine are now in custody
awaiting trial. Sixteen Of those tried
before Judge Lecompte for murder
were convicted of manslaughter, and
are now at Lecompton. They have,
says correspondent Of the Missouri
Democrat, "good quarters, arc well
treated, and have the liberty Of the
town they are allowed to 60 out and
work for themselves" They are in
the charge of Capt. Hampton, . gallant
Kentuckian, who will not think Of put
ting a ball and chain upon them.
Quite an interesting ceremony tool
place ut Lawrence on the 4th ult., at
the regular meeting Of the Lawrence
"Stubbs," which is the oldest and one
of the most active military Esee State
companies in the Territory. The lady
students Of Mr.. Eli Thayer's celebrated
seminary, Mount Dread, at Worcester
presented the company, through Mrs
Gates, a lady Of Lawrence who ha
been soliciting aid at the East during
the past summer, with forty-two waite
proof overcoats, with the name of eac
of the fair donors inscribed on the il
side. Mr.. Army, agent Of the Nationa
Committee, added enough to suppl
each member also two pair of pant
and pair of gloves each. Mrs. Gate
presented the coats on behalf of th
donors, and effective speeches wer
made by Messrs. Hyatt and Army, {
the National Committee, and MessrI
Harrington, Realf and Capt. Wake
of Lawrence. The name of the Con
pany was changed from "Lawrcnc

Our astute brother Of the Osage

"mare's nest" while examining the

lieve that our beloved State Of Iowais
sadly in debt and raises his hands in
holy horror because our Governor and
Legislators have perjured themselves
by violating the constitution which
they have sworn 70 support they hay
ing plunged the State into debt one
hundred and twenty-eight thousand
dollars, when the constitution restricts
them to debt of one hundred thou.
