FRANKLIN COTNTY

1t is one misfortune of the Democracy to he
the avowed enemies Of reform in both State and
National Government. In the States they have
earned the well-deserved epithet of Rum De-
nocracy. In the Nation they are avowedly in
favor of leaving rascals or Shareholders to make
their own laws, without any interference or re-
strction whatever This is not Democracv. but
Il wide departure from its first principles, as
defined by Webster and advocated by Washing
ton and jefferson. 1t is this departure from the
principles Of Democracy which has led the mass
Of the people to Use in body to restore the
principles of the Government, reform the wick
edness, and abolish the injustice, in the nation.
The Republican party are the avowed friends
Of healthy moral reform, in both State and
Nation. 1t is the natural offspring of free
people determined to defend and pcrpetuate
their Freedom. At the time of the admission
OF the territory acquired from Mexico, the Ma
tional Wing party, then in power, were depart
ing from the principles Of Freedom, and the
people rallied under the name f Free Democra.
cy, to prevent the further extension of Slavery
They were successful then In 1924. The
leaders of that Free Democracy were departing
from those principles, and the people have again
rallied to stay the hydra-headed monster
Whether the Republican party shall ever be
successful in the election of their candidate for
the Presidency or not, it matters little Their
mission is more than half accomplished They
have insured Freedom to Kansas. They have
SO harrassed the Democracy that they have so
tar returned to the principles of Jefferson as to
drive off the most firm and clamorous support
trs of the Pierce administration to the forma.
ton of Southern radical pro-savery party.
But the Administration at the White House is
lar in advance of the Office holding Democracy
in the several States north who are still crv.
ing. down with all barriers to the free indul-
gencc of mans carnaI appettes.

KANsAs,-The recently elected municipal Of
fcels Of Lawrence have proceeded to organize
and transact business under their squatter
sovereignty city charter, notwithstanding the
dangerous Q) proximity of Gen Walker and
his army. The Free State men are unintmi.
dated and are busily preparing for the August
elections, under the Topeka Constitution.
the Leavenworth Times of the 25lh ult.
states that the present population of Kansas las
ascerlaned by the census just taken by authori-
ty Of the Free State Legislature, exceeds TO-
600. No territory ever before had SO rapid Il
growth. Kansas will present her Free State
constitution to the next Congress, backed by
population little short of 100000.
Much excitement exists at Leavenworth.
growing out Of the robbery and murder of II
nah named Stevens. Two men, named Baines
and Quarles, were arrested, charged with the
murder. and their confessions disclosed the ex-
istencc of a regular organized band of robbers
aud murderers. Several apparently respectable
citizens are implicated as coniedemtes OF the
band Baines and Quares were hung under
lynch law
Advices of Monday state that Woods and
Knowlton. the companions of the two men
hung on Friday, were being tried by the Judges
of the Vigilance Committee. The people were
Intensely excited, and expressed u determination
to lynch the prisoners at all hazards. Gov
Walker and Judge Lecompte had addressed the
people, but failed 10 pacity them.
Correspondents give detailed account of The
alarming excitement consequent upon the above
murders, but by the exertions of the Flee State
Mayor, quiet had been restored Advices to
the Sd state that Walker, after quietly looking
on through all the lynch law excitement, had
evacuated Lawrence, taking his troops with
him.

From EuronA.

The only item of importance we see in
the foreign advices is the the following:
On Thursday, in the House of Lords, the
Queens answer to the address upon the SUBJ
ject Of emigration of free negroes into Wes-
tern Africa, was received. 1t merely gives.
an assurance of an earnest desire to dscour.
age all schemes, for the emigration of free
negroes, that are calculated to promote slave
ry.
The proceedings in regard to the Atlantic
cable continued to increase in interest.
The stockholders of the company at Liv-
erpool had given grand banquet to the off,
GERS of the Niagara and Susquehannah, and
the completion of the shipping of the cable
on the Agamemnon had been celebrated by
grand fete in the park of Sir Culling Earldy,
near Firth, on the Thames. Nearly thou
sand persons were present at the latter en-
tertainment, including Prof. Morse, Mr.. Cy-
rus W. Field, Hon. Henry Raymond, Capt,
Sands Of the Susquehannah and others.
Mr.. Field, in returning thanks for toast,
read a letter from President Buchanan, sta
ting that he should feel much honored if the
first message across the Atlantic should be
one from Queen Victoria to the President
Of the United States, and he should endeav-
or to answer it in spirit and manner becom-
ing the great occasion.
The Agamemnon left Greenwich on the
oath for Sheerness, to have her compass adj
justed-after which she would proceed d.
rect to Cork.
An important alteration in the arrange
ments for laying the cable has been determn-
ed upon, and tie plan now is, instead of COM
mencing in mid ocean, to submerge the whole
cable in one line from to Valentia Bay, Ire
land, to Newfoundland The Niagara will
lay the first half from Ireland to the middle
of the Atlantic. The end will then be Joined
to the other half on board the Agamemnon,
which takes it to the coast of Newfoundland
During the whole process, the four vessels
will remain together, and give whatever as
sistance is required. Constant communica-
ton is to be kept up with the coast of Ire
land during the progress of the work, and
the wires are at once carried from Killarney
to Valentia Bay so as to connect with the
British and Irish lines.
