IN the Ring

the Herald Of Freedom lays down platform
fer the people of Kanzas, which IS to rense-l
dy all their ills. This is no more por less
than an entire abandonment of the Topeka
Government, and participation in the cleo
ton In October next, for Territorial Legisla-
ture and Delegate to Congress- With his
breath still warm with the assertion that the
Topeka Constitution .smust be preserved
intact, and that SO GBsoisE Z FREE STATE NAN
would throsg "a obstacle IN tie ssoy Of keep
ing aa die organization" the editor of the
.Heyold Of Freedom biazenly asserts that the
Topeka Government must be abandoned!
" hat has wrought this sudden change?-
Might not his assertion some months since,
that he ..had worked long enough for glory,
and hereafter would work only for cash, :"
be thought of in this connection. with some
of the cash that Gov Walker has been so
lavish of since his arrival in Kanzas?
From the article containing the platform,
we make the following extracts:
while tie enemy has been al work, enn-
ploying every artiiee which his ingenuity
could invent, to perfect his work of enstay-
ing US, we have been hugging a delusiye
phantom TO cur besoms-a phantom which
has exhausted our best efforts to infuse into
it life: and yetit is a phantom.
The opportunity which, if improved,
would have given us controlling influence IN
the Constitutional Convention, has been al
lowed to pass Such was the decree of the
Topeka Convention of March last. It was
political hetrodoxy to oppose its action
The phantom referred to is the Topeka
Constitution No onSdenounced the CEN
sus act under which The election for Dele
gates to the Constitutional Convention allu-
ded to above was held, with more bitterness
than G. W. Brown. In public and IN pri-
Hate he spoke of it in unsparing terms as
an Instrument for our enslavement-an
outrageous fraud But Gov. Walker
bold of this political Jumping Jack. .
and loi he dances another tune inmedi-
ately.
G. W. Brown weif knows that under the
election law passed by the last Bogus Leg
new apportionment for Representatives to
the Territorial Legislature on the basis of tie
census taken previous to the election for Del
egates to the Constitutional Convention
He knows that under that apportionmeni
all the inhabitants IN the valley of the Neo-
sho and Usage are disfranchised, and that

also left without any representation. Bui
what avails his knowledge? He has sold
himself for manmon.
The fact of the business is, Brown is lost
unless he has some qnect man to s-worshit
and look to for hobbies When Gov, Geary
resigned, he foundered in despair mt
Walker came. Here was an opportunity
which be lost no time in improving. Ever
since Walkers arrival in the Territory ht
has kept faithful record of his Walkers
performances, acted as his colporteur, dis
tributed "secret service money''-been, il
fact, q sort of '.E'oLion attachment to His
Excellency. Having for so long period
denounced the very policy and men whom
be now upholds, he must be Jealous in or
der TO prove his conversion genuine. W.
have no doubt that his cringing servility
and eagerness to prove himself recreant tc
all former professions will satisfy even the
aristocratic feelings of Gov. Walker. Like
'sSome poor wretch. whose lips no longer bear
The sacred burden of his mothers prayer,
By fear impelled, or lust of gold enticed,
! Turns to the Crescent from the Cross OF Christ,
And, over acting in suPerfueus zeal,
Crawis PROSTATE where the faithful only kneel,
0ut-hOwls the Dervish. hugs his rags to court
The squllid Santon's sanctity of dirt -
And, when beneath the city gateway's span e
Files slow and long the Meccau caravan, seksS
And through Its midst, pursued BY 1slanIs prayers
The prophets Word some favored camel bears,
The marked apostate has his place assigned
The Koran bearers sacred TgEnlp behind,
