he great ability and incorruptible in
egrity Of the mse, and wisely placed
Tim in the Cabins rs his adviser. OIL
Messrs. Cobb, Black, Thonpson and
Brown We can say that they are the best
types Of that clsn Of sound and able
men that could have been chosen. With
this Cabinet Mr. Buchanan will be stout
" assisted in every emergency which
may arise duriag hA term Of Office. We
predict that his Administrator will be
~ brilliant ~ any proceeding one. and
he wiltsseise from ONCE leaving the
country in the full tide Of greatness
and glory, made secure BY peace with
all Nations.
The following criticize was handed Us
some days since, but its publication
was unavoidably delayed:
vor the Stat Democrat
MEssss. EDIroRs:-I notice in this
mornings Gazette . copy Of a letter
from the Chicago Tribune, by y "spe-
cisl correspondent At I.ccompton. !
would respectfully ask through your
paper " make few statements. ]
regret To zee such correspondence for
any paper, so utterly regardless OF
tauth. II there he any more rascality
in the "Bogus Legislature than there
is in this Especial correspondent" God
forbid that it should ever be permitted
to assemble again. After the writer
has made many false statements, and
gone on with TRADE ii abuse to
great extent he then takes up thu
resolutions and greatly pervei,
IN. Neither 10 there any truth II
the statement that most Of the mem
bers got decidedly drunk" when the.
visited the Governor, at the close ofth'
session, but the writer does not say
directly that tn Governor got drunk
He then speaks of the census bill ~
follows: This is to cut OH all cml
grafton Of the next season, and to ex
tend the fraudulent census for the Con
stltutional Convention TO the regular
election How strange that the par
" having so large majority Of voters
as they clam to have, should object te
this kind ii a bill. 1T WAS admitted
in debate that unless this was don.
there would be complete defeat OF ths
party now in power" aud again ''th'
Council had several secret sessions
these are believed to be intrigues abon;
Missouri voting" These statements
are al as false AS the author Is base
speak from personal knowledge, hav
ing been a, the capito! during til,
session of the Legislature. 1t appear,
that this anti-lxw party is fond OF deal
ing i'll billngsgate; no cpIthets being
too bad to heap upon the Legislator,
OF Kansas And wien they have cN
haustcd their skill upon that body, the,
turn and pour out their vituperaii 10,
upon the Governor because he will en-
force the laws Of the Territory aud mo-
permit them to 90 nnpun,shed aft"
plund.r,ng, horse stealing and evel
numbering and attempting to murde
innocent men as they did in the east
o, poor Martin White OF Illinois
twho is a Baptist minister and an an,
slavery NAM who mad made him !
good farm IN Kansas aud whom the,
undertook TO murder after announcing
that the "hor,ier yuilians hal brutal,
murdered him. These are facts oh
/, tanned personally from the Rev. Mr.
White. Has This party been actin:
honestly with lis on not They have
ALWAYS claimed two ar three voters I.
one of their opposition. II this b'
true they ought to be the last peopl,

oil emigration hy tn. ccn,us bill. l
would seem tina, they intend preparing
the way in,casr the national democratic
party of Kansas should ont vote then
To set up another howl TO the Nortt
that the "hordcr rufFisns" of Missouri
have carried the election. II ia i'm
possible for any man either North OF
South to know the state Of affairs il
Kansas unless he 90 aud see for him
self. wonld be pleased Ia see tn,
time come when newspaper-:orrespon
'lcnt. could be depended on. They arr
too frequently like the one Of thu
Tribune trying to tili the minds Of th'
people with excitement and tnereb,
create another war in Kansas SO tina
they may feast Of the spoils, but
confidently beiievc that there is to'
much forc,hougLt and judgement il
that people To act without due de
liberation. now h-pe that the Cos
siping reports OF irresponsible hydra
headed correspondents will gain hn
little favor with the good people q
Kansas or elsewhere.
