GOV. walker


This veteran thimble-rigger IS still be-
fore lawrence with the troops watching the
people. seemingly ready to sspitch in" so
soon as they put into operation their muni-
cipal government. He has had no public
communication with the people, and moth
ing is known certain as TO what his action
viii be.
A few days since gentleman who had
Just arrived in the Territory, paid visit to
Gov. Walker in the camp at Lawrence, and
had a long and interesting conversation with
him, in the course of which Gov. Walker
stated that on several previous occasions he
had been urged TO bring the troops to Law
renee to correct the evil practices of the
denizens of that place, but that. he had for
borne and chosen rather to expostulate with
them. But now, he was fully determined
not to suffer this thing to go farther. The
action of the people of Lawrence was in
violation of the Organic act, and treasoha-
BILE, and he could not suffer it to be contin
ued without violating his oath of Office. He
"would see whether Charles Robinson or r.
J. Walker was Governor of this Territory"
The August election was also of piece
with the other movement, and he should
put stop to it He was asked some
questions in regard to the collection of tax
es. In reply to this his answer was explicit,
that '.he had pat the eva hossr of as long as
tpossible, Jut 1t could Be delayed no longer
&ey should be collected" We can vouch
fov the reliability of the above statement
We received it from the gentleman himself,
whose character for veracity is unimpeach-
able.
Nov what are we to think of these asser-
tons of Gov. Walker If he was man of
truth we should know what to do. If his
assertions could be relied upon, there
would be general arming in Kanzas,-for
if there is anything on which the Free
State men are united, it is in resistance to
the enforcement of the bogus laws. Law
renee would not be left to bear the brunt
alone. The principle involved is one which
is dear to the people of Kanzas, and they
will not see it sacrificed.
But Gov. Walker has so many faces, and
plays SO many different tunes that we can
not tell what to expect. Which thimble is
the pea under? Will he back out entirely,
or will he go ahead and carry out the pro-
gramme laid down in his Proclamation, and
stated in the above conversation That is
the question and we await the solution of
it with considerable anxiety.

TIE Expedition 70 Utah eH Sham and HuHsb.g
A telegraphic dispatch has been received
by Gen. Harney, at Fort Leayenworth coun-
demanding his orders TO march for Utah
This dispatch, coming on the heels of Walk
er's proclamation, and Quixotic expedition
against Lawrence, is indicative of the de-
sign of Harney's appointment to this post.
Harney was undoubtedly coupled with
Walker in Buchauan's plan for the pacifca-
ton of Kanzas-and was never intended
for Utah-at least not during the present
season.
From the Quartemaster's report which will
be found in another column. it can be easi-
ly seen by any one, acquainted with militia
~ expeditions across the plains, that prep
arations are not making ON large enough
scale for the subjugation of the Mormons.
The Utah expedition is then only ruse
to direct public attention from the main plot,
which is the enslavement of Kanzas by the
United States Army. under Walker and
Harney. The prelude of this drama has
already begun.-Deiaacare Free State.

Astute.

The political position of the people of Kan
zas is new in America, and new TO the world.
The wisest jurists, and the best political
writers in the country, are puzzled to know
how we can legsin our lost rights, and free
ourselves from the pro-slavery usurpers who
reign over us.-Heratd Of Freedom, 25th ult.
But that quintessence of pettifoggery who
contOls the Herald of Freedom has never
been ''puzzled to know how we could regain
our lost rights;' but with that rare discern
ment which he alone, of all the ''wise ju
rists" and political writer's possesses, has
not only discerned the ''panacea" but given
it to the world. Even last summer during
that ever-to- be remembered 'four months
imprisonment, with which his readers are
weekly bored, when all was dark without,
and the ''sun of American Liberty" seem
ed to be 'ssetting in blood, !" the spirit of the
prophet looked through the cloud and Gre
joiced at the prospect of peace"
The Kanzas news., 1857-08-01
Base Ingratitude.

The Democratic politicians are having a
" real good time" repudiating their scare
crow of a pet. yclept-"Squatter Sover-
eighty" Stephen A. Douglas, the father
of it, has cast it off as base founding.
JEFF. Davis, the late Secretary of War, has
also given the poor babe an ungrateful kick.
So on with all the small fry of politicians
and papers which trumpet forth the praises
and follow in the wake of these would-be
great men.
President Buchanan (and Cabinet) spite
of his inaugural, also repudiates, if not in
terms, at least in substance, the phantom of
Squatter Sovereignty which has so long
grinned at Democratic banquet board. So
goes the ball, and poor, abused SCATTER
Sovereignty. finding itself ousted in every
direction and even the legitimacy of its ORR
gin denied, is compelled to take refuge in the
homes and by the fresides of those whom
it was intended to defraud
The Squatters of Kanzas, with commen-
dable benevolence have housed this poor
forlorn specimen of Democratic ingratitude,
and will not rest content until It's wrongs
are redressed. They see that there is dim
truth shadowed out in the mass of words
with which Popular Sovereignty has been
clothed, and they intend as an act of retrib-
utive justice to compel these political doc
tors to swallow their own medicines. The
Topeka Constitution is the embodiment of
Popular Sovereignty in Kanzas, and bitter as
may be the draught, the Democratic party
will have to swallow it, for the same reason
that the boy gave when he drank his moth
er's favorite wine, viz: ''what is sauce for
the goose is sauce for the gander,''

Who votesP

The Doniphan Cossstitutionalist, whose
editor is one of the delegates to the bogus
Convention, in speaking upon Gov. Walk
Ier's promise that the Constitution of the
usurpers shall be submitted to full vote of
all the people, uses the following significant
language:
"Goy. Walker had no authority to make
any such assertion-he has not thing TO
do with the Conyention-he has no saY-so
in the matter. If he wishes to make to-
tai failure in his mission to Kanzas, let him
pander to the foolish whims of the abolition
lists.
As one Of the Delegates zoe here state that
TIE Constitution oil not Be submitted to every
man aUAo nsay accidentally or Intentionally
De t1 A0azas on the dag Of its adoption,
Gos. Walker to the contrary, notwithstanding
But We do not believe that he ever made
the statements attributed to him. IF he did,
he said that a thing should be done, over
which be had no control. and If he should
attempt to interfere or induce the Conven-
ton to throw the Constitution before every
straggler that may be here, he would be at
tempting to play the tyrant. and be giving
aid and comfort to the ayoved enemies of
the country. and the de6ers of all law -

Next Monday.

Let every man who has the Freedom OF
Kanzas at heart, go to the polls next Mon
day. the Sd inst. We can well spare one
day for the cause. aud count it our gain.
Upon the vote cast on Monday next depends
much Of our success If the people Of
Kanzas ara unmindfui of their duty, and
suffer themselves to be kept away from the
polls, it viii tell fearfully IN the next Con-
gress. when the Topeka Constitution comes
up to confront that one which win be framed
by the usurpers in September next. 1t is
therefore all-important that We should have
full vote on Monday next. We hope and
believe that the voters of this District fully
understand this matter, and will set accord
ingly.
The Kanzas news., 1857-08-01

From some gentlemen who have just ar
rived from Osawkee. where the sale of the
Delaware Trust lands is progressing, we
learn some incidents of the sale and the
particulars of a fatal affray at that place
On Thursday, the Esd ult Gen. Lane made
a speech to the squatters, spectators and
others, and during it was frequently inter-
rupted by South Carolinian, who threat
ened to shoot him, and made many noisy
demonstrations to annoy the speaker. Pres
emily man named Clark, an Indianian and
friend of Gen. Lane, took the boisterous
Southerner out of the crowd by force,
which restored quiet to the meeting. The
South Carolinian was heard to threaten the
life of Clark, and during the evening of the
same day, while Clark was lying in his tent
he approached and attempted to kin him
with large club. but missed his mark.
Clark Immediately sprang to his feet, siezed
the club from the Carelinian and struck
him severe blow on the head and une on
the arm which broke it. The Carolinian
died from the effect of the blows the same
night, and Clark was Immediately arrested
but escaped.
The sales were progressing quietly. The
Commissioner had decided that young, un-
married squatters should pay twenty-five
cents per acre more than the appraised price,
which had resulted in throwing more land
into the hands of the spectators than
would otherwise have been. What does
the bachelor administration mean by thus
taxing the bachelor squatters of Kanzas /?

From the Mo. Democrat, July %.
Missouri a Free State.

Perfdy is its own reward. The outrages
by which the nullifess endeaYored to steal
Kanzas, by exasperating the Free State
men, have rendered slave property, all
along the frontier, the most precarious and
Improbable of all investments.
Every one who knows the character of
the people of Kanzas, and the history which
has formed that character, is familiar with
these facts. He knows that no stone has
been left unturned that could be turned
that no northern territorial leader has been
left alive who could safely be murdered
that no outrage has been omitted which
could safely be committed-by. the admin
istration of Pierce, and Atchison's banditti
in oFdeE6o make Kanzas Slave state All
have failed Free institutions have
obtained victory by the valor of free men,
Kanzas must be free state. As a reward
and punishment for her serviyes to the null
lfiers, Missouri-willing or unwilling-will
be Obliged very shortly to follow in her train.
Missouri, which tried to 'scrush out the
serpent, has been stung by it, and must
succumb.

Hannpden.

This place is situated on the east side of
the Neosho river, in the geographical center
of Cofey county. 1t was laid out In the
spring of 1855; but in consequence of the
unsettled state of affairs in the Territory it
has made little advance until the present
spring. A gentleman who came from there
few days since informs us that new ener-
gy had been infused into it this spring, and
that it promises fair to 'make place.
There are two stores, hotel and post Office
in the place, and saw mill is on the way
from Illinois, which is daily expected. A
Female Seminary will be opened the coming
fall by a graduate of Mount Holyoke Sem
mary.
The Association makes liberal offers to me-
chanics and traders who viii locate in the
place. They have also pledged themselves
to erect twenty-five houses on the town site
in eight months This looks like going
ahead. Persons wishing further informa-
ton can address w. A. Ella, at Hampden,
who is the President of the Association and
also Postmaster.
