The Election and Affray at
LcavenWOrth.

The Leavenworth Times of the 4th gives
the result of the city election. The whole
number of votes cast was 468; the majori-
ty for the Free State ticket 324. The
Times says "a much larger Free State vote
would have been polled had it not been for
the trouble which occurred after dinner
It is pretty evident that most of the pro-
slavery voters also suffered the election to
60 by default.
The evening of the 4th the examination
of the case Of Hsller, charged with the
murder of Lyle, was nearly closed. Haller
was committed to the guard house at Fort
Leavenworth by Gov. Walker, who sent
him there under safe escort. There was
large crowd in attendance on Saturday,
many of them armed with pistols. The
friends of Lyle were determined that Hal
ler should not escape, and the friends of
Haller that be should not be harmed by
lynchers and ruffians. One man attempt
ed to knife him, but was prevented. On
the 9th, Haller was-committed for trial at
the District Court and the excitement was
allayed. l--. 4G

The Charleston Mercury Of the 4th tries
to figure out that Mr.. Buchanan's admins
tration are all against the South, sin the
one great matter in which the South is
momentously concerned-in the one great
matter" We quote the language of the
Mercury, "that elevated them to power by
Southern hearts and Southern hands.
The Mercury, however, concludes TO swat
for the response of the Government to the
Democratic party of Georgia, demanding
that Gov. Walker shall be recalled from
the Governorship of Kansas" What it
proposes to do about il, is thus distinctly
and threatingly stated:
"If he is left to carry out his policy in
Kansss-and he has been already lefi too
long whether Kansas shall be lost to the
South or not then, we say, the powers that
b, are against tie South; and, however
earnestly We labored to place the Admins
tration in power, we are done with it for
ever. For it will give to the world one Of
the most fragrant instances of base political
treachery and disgusting ingratitude, for
selfish purposes, that the annals Of political
history afford"
The Washington Union contains strong
article, evidently semi-oficial, sustaining
Gov. Walkers "policy in Kansas" Tho
Mercury must now sign of, forever,

4 Pioneer and mighty Hunter.

There recently died at Snowshoe, Cen
tire county, Pennsylvania, a pioneer of that
section of country, named Samuel Askey,
aged 81. He was born in Northumber-
land county, served under Gen. Harrison,
and after the war visited the wilds of the
Snowshoe country. The Democrat says:
He settled about one mile from the little
or Black Moshannon and II miles from
the Bald Eagle Valley, the then nearest
settlement. He was one of the two first
settlers that followed in the trail of the In
dians, they had left but short time pre-:
vious, leaving their hunting grounds to be
occupied by white mer. The life of Mr..
Askey as pioneer and hunter would COM
pare with Daniel Boon or Col. Crockett
Many of the most thrilling adventuras with
and hair-bredth escapes from the wild den
zens of the forest, have been heard from
the lips of the deceased by the writer. He
carried with him to the grave scars, the re-
suit of wounds received in several contacts
with panthers, in which his life depended
on his own presence or mind and the faith
fulness of his dog. Much of his time was
spent in hunting, which proved most lu-
crative business in which he could engage
in his new home. He killed during the
time he lived in Snowshoe go panthers, SO
wolves, Ito this the records of Centre coun-
ty will bear testimony about five hundred
deer, and large number Of bears, the pre-
else number could not be obtained, but in
a statement given by himselfto the writer,
he sold in one season 27oo weight of bears
meat
