cicus assaults Of both niger worshipping and
Digger-driviDg disorganizers must be, North and
South, that The sdministrstion and Governo,
Walker really occupy the true ground-that they
are pursuing that conservative intermediate
policy between these dangerous extremes, which
meets now, and will certainly meet, the solid OPP
proval Of the whole country in the end. II will
be time to raise hue and cry against the psrfdy
of the administration when something shall have
been done upon which to fix the charge. In the
meantime, the squabble about slavery or no
slavery in Kansas, belongs properly to the people
and the authorities of Kansas; and all outside IN
tcrmeddlers arc only mischief makers
There is no danger to the South nor to the
North concerning Kansas, except from these out
side agitatorA Whatever may be the proceedings
of the oslsvery or no-aavery party in Kansas,
in the erection OF the Territory into slave State
or free State, from this time henceforward, for
twenty years to come, such proceedings will
amour. to nothing, one way or the other, until
ratified by Congress. Nor would the practi-
ca! inter- sts of the country suffer jot if
kacsas were to be kept in the condition of a
Itriitory ior twenty years to come. Indeed, We
hope and tTust that until the proceedings Of the
people OF Kaieas, ia The matter OF a State coz
stltouon- pfo-s;aye;y or no slayery-shall have
been reduced to something like regularity, Law
and order, 70 constitution from either side will
be accepted by Congress
We put the Northern Kansas shriekers ard
Southern Kansas shriekers together-for thus
their Insane rawlings neutralize each other, The
administration is neither intriguing to make
Kansas slave State nor thlnble-rigg0g 10
make Kansas n free State. 1t is only EXECUTING
the laws, and the issue remains ~ith the people
Of Kansas and with Congress. Ia the interval to
the meeting Of Congress, the people OF the State
OF New York, have little bleeding" of their
own 10 look after, from which they will not be
diverted by the shriekers Of "bitetiiog Kansas
North or South. The bleeding" question We
have TO deal with Is not located at Lecompton.

CONDITION or THE FERRY BoArs-The officers
detailed TO examine the condition of the ferry
boats plying in the waters Of New York made
their report yesterday to the General Supcrin-
tendcnt of Police We publish 1t in another
portion Of our paper today. II appears by it
that the following ferry companics observe the
law affecting steamboats,, and have the necessary
small boats ard appliances to save life, namely
the Union Ferry Company, Comprising the Ha-
milton avenue, South, Wall street. Fulton, Roosc

Div sion Avenue, the Houston Street, the Green
Point the Twenty third Street, the Jersey City
the staten leland, the Hobokcn, and the New

cursion boats arr also reported as being properly
provided.
The Williamsburg boats appear to be the only
ones against which any complaint exists The
officers report that those Of the Peck Slip Ferry
Company are supplied with the number Of boats
required by law, but they are all in miserable

AHEAD OF THE OCEAN TLIEGEApH.--We have
been obliged on several occasions to call atten-
ton to the astonishing enterprise Of our young
friends of the Daily Times who are distinguished
for their remarkable alaerity In swapping up all
the canards which are floating about town. Thus
a short time since the Tines contained romantic
account of the shooting Of burglar by an heroic
young woman-a pure fiction, artittically worked
up. Next, the same authority informed us that
the United States government had seized the
island of Formosa, in order TO make his Celestial
Majesty, the Emperor of China, settle for certain
depredations upon the property Of American
citizens. This was another romance, and Formo-
20 will not be annexed Just at present We look
ed at the TINES with the sentiments Of the sailor
who went to the theatre, and having been blown
forty feet in the air by an explosion OF gun
powder, said to bis comrade, "Hold on. Jack.
Let's zee what they'll do next Our curiosity
was satisfied yesterday by the latest and high
ly important intelligence concerning the Atlantic
telegraph aid intelligence purporting to he four
days later than the news by the Anglo Saxon,
which ship sailed from Liverpool on the 18th,
while the Edinburg which was alleged to have
brought the latest news to the Times, sailed from
Glasgow three days before. The whole story
was absurd and the invention Of some wag who
relieved the dulness of dog days by experiment
ing upon the gullipility of the 7Ircs. A more
transparent hoax was never imposed upon
newspaper. The officers of the Edinburg saw
nothing of the ships, as stated by the Tmes, and
The log has no account Of anything like The story
that was imposed upon the credulity Of our young
friends.
From oil these things W. are led to believe
that the Times people have too many irons In the
FIRE. They cannot serve God and Mammou-
publish Newspaper and operate in fancy stocks.
Stories that will do very well In Wall street
won't bear publication At the Stock Exchange
operators make news AZ they think II ought to
he, but newspaper readers generally prefer to
have il as 1t is. The prospect Is that We shall
have the news early enough, without takiRg the
trouble 10 manufacture IT. but II we arc to be
swindled, let IL be done artistically, at least
That last story about the telegraph was alto
gether too bald. The Times may try very hard,
but that romantic flight can never be equaIcd.
