connected with the Mexican boundary survey,
proceeded to the schooi-house, after the return
of his son, and after pouring forth torrent of
profanity and abusive epithets, struck the teach
or severe blow ON the head with heavy cane.
What adds to the enormity of the offence is the
fact that the teacher received the abuse without
word of reply, and having lost part of his
hand, was disabled from defending himself Mr..

AFFAIRS IN KANsAs-CAUsE OF Gov. GEARY's
REsIGNArION.-ST. LOUIS, March 1.-THE st.
Louis Democrat publishes a statement relative
to affairs in Kansas, given by Gov. Geary. The
cause of the resignation of Gov. Geary is said
to have been the failure of President Pierce to
fulfil tho pledges made at the time the appoint
ment was conferred, to support him (GoY. GU
with the power of the army and militia, and
the means of the Treasury, if necessary but,
instead of receiving this aid, he has paid Sl2,-
OOO dollars out of his own pocket to meet the
expenses Of the administration, has been re-
fused the aid and support of the military under
the most urgent circumstances, and thwarted
by the Judiciary Of the Territory in every pos
siblc manner. The Governor states that not
less than fifty men were under oath, from the
day he entered the Territory until he left it, to
assassinate him, provided his official career did
not meet their appreciation.
Tho Governor regrets tho steps he has been
| obliged to take, and feels confident that had
| the promised assistance been rendered him. he
| could have administered the affairs of the Ter
ritory in a manner acceptable to the homes
| settlers of both sides. In relation to the out
RACES committed by the pro-slavery men, h,
says one half has not been told. He pronoun
ces the murder of Butfum by Hays the mos
ld-blooded and atrocious affair ever witness,
cd. His version of tho Sherrard affair is SINH.
lar to those already published. He says, how
ever, that the account published in the Repub-
Hcdh, over the signature of Sc Jones, +" is tissue
of talsehoods.
The Governor complains much of the OBJ
structions and mutlations of his official cor
respondenco. lie says mail bags wore con
stantly opened, and all Objectionable matter to
or from him, extracted. He thinks thc cstab-
lishment Of slavery constitution in Kansas
inevitable.

OUR CoINAoE.-The recent act of Congress
in reference to coinage carries with it many ad-
vantagesi it will relieve us of the old Spanish
coins without loss to holders, give us a new cent
weighing less than half the old one, and is a
stop towards a national decimal currency. By
the act, Spanish quarters, eighths and six
teenths arc received at the United States Trea
sury and for payment OF Federal dues at 20, 10
and cents respectively, but are taken at the
Mint for their par value in exchange for the
cents, and are to be recoined. All former
acts authorizing the currency of foreign gold
or silver coins, and declaring the same legal
tender in payment for debts, are repealed but
it is made the duty of tho director Of the Mint
to cause assays to be made, from time to time
OF such foreign coins as may be known to our
commerce, to determine their average weight
hneness, and value, and to embrace IN his an.
nual report statement Of the results thereof
Hereafter the Director is to make his annual re-
port up to the Both of June, (instead of Sis
December, as heretofore so that the results o
the years operations may appear in the annua
report Of the Secretary OF the Treasury.
