The GREAT ELEvAToR.-A Southern
gentleman, at Northern hotel, per.
ceiving that the dining room servant, a
negro, was bestowing his attentions
elsewhere, to his own neglect, called
up John and accosted him in this
wise
John, I have servants at homS and
am waited on as gentleman should
be. | am neglected here, and am tired
Of it. give you fair notice, that l will
whip You like a dog, unless you behave
better"
The consequence was, that John be-
came very attentive during the few
days that the gentleman remained
On going away, John was called up
and presented with dollar or two,
which he thus acknowledged:
"Thank.ee, massa. Southern gen.
tlemen always so-lick us like blazes
five don't wait on EN- well, but when
dey go, dey alters glib us dollar or
two
"Now desc Abolition gemmen nigh
ty hard to suit, and want much wal
ting on, an when dey 60 way shake
yer hand, look up to de wall an say,
God bless you, my unfortunate friend,
an elevate you in the scale Oh human
ity, or something like that, but dey
nebber glib us dollar to elevate us

FROM KANSAS.
Correspondence Of the Mo. Rep.

Delaware City, X. I. July 81.
Gov. Walker and his men are camped at
at Lawrence, just without the city
He seems to be merely encamped in the
suburbs, and waiting for the coming Of an
expected event. That event is supposed by
the people Of Lawrence to be the elaction
ordered by the bogus Gov. to take place in
the territory next Monday.
The Free State men say that an election
IS ordered by Robinson will certainly take
place, and Jim Lane and others, Of the same
stamp, have been harranging the people to
maintain their rights at the point Of the ba-
yonet. Very little notice seems to be taken
Of Lane by the peaceably dispose people Of
his own party. 1t was lately suggested to
him to become candidate for Congress His
reply was: Not yet, have more work to
do in Kansas first.
What that more work" was he did not
explain. and We suppose it win remain Sc
cret till deeds declare its nature.
1t is evident to ell parties that Governor
Walker and the troops under his command
camping so near Lawrence must mean some
thing. and the general impressio n
10 that the meaning will be made
known on Monday next, in the event
Of . Free State election In Kansas, %
ordered By the bsgss Governor. How
Gov. Walker will oct in the prsmisss l.
. matter Of conjecture, and the subj set
10 exciting much interest with both par
tiss. The impression sssms to DO that
b bee ssesived private orders from the
govseoosak ssd will sse upon bic in.
