From The Kansas Herald Of Freedom, !,
The CGoaking Policy.

Eastern Journals continue to predict that
Kansas will be slave State, evidently with
the intention Of preventing emigration 10 the
Territory, and making 1t q slave State. IL
Kansas is not slave State il will not be the
fault of demagogues throughout The Nonh,
who, We honestly believe, desire it TO be
made such that their predictions may be yer'
ified
We say again and again tha, Kansas can
never be made slave State. Nineteen
,weulielhs of the population of that Territory,
al the present rate of Increase from The North,
are, or soon will be, in favor Of freedom. aud
will never consent 10 be cnslaved. ,,.i
II is an outrage upon the people OF Kansas,
those who have borne the fight in person in
the pact, to be thus misrepresented in the
East, and through political journals.
Travel over the entire length and breath Of
Kansas, and it is almost impossible 10 find a
man of either patty so lost TO truth as 10 ex-
press doubt as TO the ultimate result.
Let our friends 10 the States instead OF de.
spending, send US words Of cheer and hope.
A cause was never benefiued by iaboring
continually TO discourage and dishearten its ad.
vocates. Parlissus may hope TO gain position
by pursuing the course they do, but their 'ri-
umph will be shorl.lived.
We are disguised. almos, aogered, at the
oroaking policy Of some of our exchanges,
and wish they would clip our Acquaintance.

A Good Thing well Applied.

The scientific discoverer and the scientific
inventor are disiiuc, and different characters.
1t is rarely that he who discovers great
principle applies i, successfully and thorough
ly. Sometimes, however, this is the case.
Prof. Holloway was among the first to broach
the theory that disease was the result OF the
introduction of morbid matter into the clrcu.
lation. But of itself this theory, however true,
was use less. II could not subserve any ben
eficial purpose to poin, out the locality oil the
bane unless the discoverer were provided
with an an,ido,e capable of reaching it,
Professor Holloway came up 10 the good
work doubly armed. He had not only traced
the symptoms Of disease TO their genuine
cause, but had, after long research and innu.
mersble experiments, produced two reme-
dies which would infallibly reach it. Time,
which tries all things, has tested the value
of those remedies. What has been the re-
sulls During the twenty years they have
been before the world, thousands Of medi.
cines, hundreds of new systems OF practice
have heen ushered into existence, enjoyed az
ephemeral popularity, and passed into obliv-
ion. No, so with Holoway's Pills and Oint.
men,. They stand first on the list Of mod.
| ern curatives. Their reputation is founded
| on rock-,he rock Of truth-aud cannot be
shaken. Scarcely year ago their inventor
came 10 our shores uuheralded. 1t is true
chat large quantities of his medicines were
consumed in the United States, and that his
skill, his enterprise, his success, were often
referred 10 by the Americad press, but per
sona,y he was unknown 10 us, and the great
system Of agencies with which he had GOV
cred more than half the habable globe had
not yet been extended to this country. He
came hther for the purpose Of atfording US
new facilities for The procurement OF his
preparations, and consequence has been an
increase of one hundred rer cent, in the
| demand for them within few months. II
appears, from the statement of oil who have
taken the Pills for indigestion, that their ef
feet in cases of dyspepsia is almost beyond
belief. AS this complaint has with some

America, a specific that never fails 10 re-
move il is Of course invaluable.
The public, on both sides OF the Atlantic
! haIbee so often victimised by medica
charlatans during the last fifty years, that j
received with something of disirust the frs
rumors of the efficacy Of Holloway's rem
edies. But every day furnished new proof
of the fact, and at last such was the over
whelming weight Of evidence in their favor
that i, became more absurd to doubt than Il
believe. They grew in celebrity, and lh'
demand for them increased with a rapiei,!
unexampled in the annals of medical sci
ence; nor has their fame or ,ha, of their in

that the greatest cold observed in the Arctic

An Awfal Calami,y-.soo Lives lost

The steamer Montreal, ply ing belween the
city OF that name, aud oiher ports on the ST.
Lawrence river, was burned on Friday eve-
/ ming last, attended with fearful loss of life.
The following despatch gives some idea of the
frightful catastrophe.
MONTREAL, June 27.-The loss of the stea.
mer Montreal has been reported here, and
the exci,emen. is great, as may be supposed.
The steamer contained no less than five hun
dred passengers, generally emierants from
Scotland. The scene is described as most
frigh,ful upon the bursting out OF the flames.
The devour:ng element spread rapidly, and,
as a large number of the passengers were
women and children, few precautions Of q
character TO save life could be adopted
Amidst the awful horror of the scene, many
persons leaped overheard, large number of
whom were drowned almost Immediately
Crowds OF others were roasted 10 death be-
fore they could attempt 10 escape. The boat
was off Cape Rouge at the time of the disas-
ter. Persons on shore exerted themselves TO
save the unforlunates, bu, the rapitiy with
which the flames consumed all in their track
and the intense terror of those on board the
ill.fated steamer operated against all efforts
TO rescue the unhappy passengers. As fat as
we can learn a, Montreal, only one hundred
and seventy.6ve persons were saved from the
burning wreck, but il is probable that others
may have reached the shore who have net
reported themselves. II is certain that over
two hundred passengers were drowned, and
that very many others were burned to death.
The shocking calamily has thrown gloom
over our whole community.
Still later advices cay that the number of
those who are lost will probably exceed three
hundred and fifty souls!

IRoN CARs-Thcre is now nearly com
pleted in Paterson, n. J., first class pas
senger car, httle larger than the ordinary
size, constructed almost entirely of wrough
iron. The material is employed TO obtain
grea, strength, with less weigh, than usual
and to avoid the injury 10 passengers by the
destruction OF ordinary cars in any kind ot
collision. Iron cars have been used on the
Boston city Railways, but have not, we IN.
derstand, proved satisfactory. The rever-
beration OF a longer passenger car will be
found almost doafcning. Ii will he as noisy
