The members Of the Free State Lccisla-
lure OF Kansas, arrested few days since,
were arrested on charge Of treason, in the
usurpation of Office! - We think that ia
pretty wide strain Of Official tyranny. Prob
ably the next lot of freemen will be arrested
on charge Of opposing the administration
OF James Buchanan. The prisoners we're
taken to Tecumseh, and released on their
personal rscognizance to appear at the spring
term OF Judge Cato's court. This outrage
is looked npon as high handed, and is areus.
Ing much feeling again among the Free
stare settlers, who were surprised beyond
measure. II is 'slaw and order. thar ia a
Border kufhan proceeding, in that interest
entirely, and part of the infamous pro.
ceetinss that have drenchcd the soil Of Kan
sas with human gore. 1t is n matter of in
'eres' TO learn Hex who Is responsible for
Tue restoration Of this system of TACTICS
Some OF the Free State men think il was
prompted by Gov. Geary, anl are inclined to
believe that they have given him too much
credit Tor impartialty and honesty. This
Is very likely. That he is one Of those men
who can play double, who can s.smile. and
smile, and be a villain while he smiles.o we
have no doubt. Some, however. more char.
liable, and perhaps more penetrating, think
That 1t Is trick to damage Geary, the Ruff
hans, procuring the performance of it, be-
heving that the individuals arrested would
resist the Marshal, when Geary would be
called on for troops, which be would refuse.
and 90 furnish pretext for demanding his
removal. The more common opinion is that
Geary has instigateI the proceedings, not
outstanding his censures Of the conduct of
Col. Sumner on the 4th Of last July, and his
declarations that nothing Of the kind should
occur again.
Kansas is not 'out OF the woods" vet, by
any means, and those who think GOV. Geary
- man who will do site to-" in any cause
but Gov. Geary's, are about as likely to find
themselves deluded as ANYBODY we know OF.
The best hope we see for Kansas is in the
prospect of heavily prcponderating Free
State emigration in the spring.
Since writing the above, We ohsery that
the Herald II Freedom, at Lawrence. saws
that Gcary is highly inceused at the arrest.
ana II SO, perhaps no harm may come to the
persons, and he may Try his hand on Judge
Cato a. he did on Lecompte. The Herald
thinks that the late Sheriff Jones insagated
osto to issue the process. We shall learn the
substantial facts soon.
