We give in another place a couple of
letters from d. r. Alchison, written to
men in South Carolina, in regard to Kan

strneG elsewhere to indicate the existence
of an intention on the par. of those who
have been prominent heretofore in the eff
fort TO make Kansas slave state, 10 run
into Kansas enough voters on the day of
the submission Of The Constitution to the
people, to carry i through. BY General

y AMI others, wf,a -have hererofsFe been
associated with General Atchison in this
matter, and who are even more interested
than he is in the question, we are assured
that no such intention exists. and that no
such effort will be made. We believe
them. and do not believe that Atchison
himself, really contemplates any such out
rage. In the present state Of affairs. no
apology exists for such proceeding, and
ne. honest and upright man will in any way,
aid or abet it.

E9r The Leavenworth Times gets up
quite a glowing description of the trouble
in Atchison on the 22d, which it winds
up by asserting that two important facts
are established by the difficulty lst
Tha. the day of Missouri invasions are not
yet overland, I'd, That there is still
one place in Kansas where free speech is
forcibly denied
As to the first of these propositions, we
have TO say, that we shall rejoice to know
that j. is sustained by no better testimony
than that afforded by the /" fuss" of the
22d. We shall have but little difficulty in
meeting and repelling such invasions, if
indeed we do not incline to welcome them
believing as we do. that the half Of
those who did the :" invading" were Free
State men. t, f.,et -;o y.
AS 10 the latter proposition, we deny it
in toto. There is full as much tolerance of
sentiment and freedom Of speech in At
Gibson aszin Leavenworth or Lawrence.
There are men in all places who would
like to circumscribe the freedom of thought
ana or speech, Uat among our bona nGe
citizens. We have as few such as are TO be
found elsewhere. The Juror agains. Gen
eral Lane. partook more of personal than
of any other kind of hostility. but it by no
means follows that Free State men who are
/.
not otherwise obnoxious to the same men
who tool, part against Lane would be NAL
treated for favowing and defending their
political views.

which was characterized by great forbear-

and these were residents of town at work

was not surrounded in the terrific style de-
scribed, nor did the crowd go near his
dwelling or in any way distarbe his family
or his .dweiling. The night which follow
ed was as quie, as usual. and but few. if
