Gov. WAIkxs's LATTER OF REsIaSATIoS-The letter
az Hon. Robert J. Walker, resiguing the Office of
Governor Of Kansas, Ia q document Of considerable
length, and states in full the reasons irnpelling
him to that step. He sets out with declaration
that he accepted the position the express condi-
ton that he should advocate the submission of the
constitution to the vote of the people for rathea-
ton or rejection. The principal reasons given for
Issigning may be stated briefly as follows
FIRST. The doctrine that sovereignty makes
copstitnttons"is denied by the administration.
Second. His fundamentally In preventing civil
war In Kansas has been 80 lightly esteemed as to
prov oke virtual rebuke.
Third. The President would be compelled,
aording to his message to remove him, at any rate
he found IL impossible, consistently, to obey his
Instructions.
Some Of Gov. Walkers friends confidently assert
that the President will refuse to accept his re-
signstion. BY returning the letter to him 1t will
Lot appear on the public archives; and further,
they anticipate the President will dismiss him.

Resistance to Authority.

The feeling of resistance to authority-of
unwillingness to submit to restraints be-
coming SO general in the land as to serious
" alarm the staid and sober, the law and
order abiding portion of the community. The
hue and cry about the largest liberty p
the feeling to disregard all laws and customs
that tend to check and hold in subsection
the wild and reckless dispositions and
passions Of our nature-has become so COM
mon, as scarcely to excite remark.
We see this in children of the tenderest
years. Boys and girls who ought to be in
the nursery and all the strong and wholesome
restraints enforce d that are so essential to
their happiness and usefulness in after-life,
are pampared, and petted, and INDUCED,
until they recognize no authority, and bold
ly rebel against all ~salutary discipline at
tempted to be enforced upon them. They
are "young gentlemen" and young Ia
dies" now, when those of their age used
to be called children and they will not
brook being trammelled in any of their de-
sires and will. We see this exhibited in the
family circle, where the gentle influences of
maternal love, and the anxious solicitude of
fatherly authority are brought to bear
We see it in the school-room in the form of
open rebellion to legitimate authority, dis
played by all the grosser animal passions Of
human nature.
Nor is this state of things confined to the
rising generation. The "largest liberty .
is demanded by men of ripper years. If the
: laws and customs of society stand in the
way of their advancement or the gratifca
ton of their desires, they are either totally
disregarded, or a crusade is waged agains
them and their abrogation demanded. Tn,
tendency of the age is against restraint, an
unless checked, will lead to fearful and ru
inous consequences. We see it in the infic
ton of Lynch law" NV SO common il
= the country. We see it in the mobs an,
riots-in the INSTRUMENTATION and blood she,
of Kansas, Nebraska and Utah every wher
| in resistance to constituted authority. Wher
is it will lead, if it continues to increase fo
the ensuing few years as it has done for tn
T" last four or five, requires no prophetic pc
to divine. This state of things is fearful t
contemplate, and is we'll calculated to II
spire the civil and conservative portion {
J the community with alarm and terror.

Upward-and Onward

There is evidently an enthusiastic interest
being awakened all over the country on the
1t is true, in some places the apa
thy of death prevails-men who were once
loud in their professions and active in their
efforts for the promotion Of the cause, nave
given way-have either gone over to the
enemy, or else sheathed the sword of truth
to rust in indulgence in the scabbard. We
say there are such dark spots, where the
light of temperance seems to have been ex-
tinguished /; yet in many-may we not say,
in most-parts of the State, the principle Of
temperance is alive and fourishing.
From the Communications published re-
Gently in this paper, the returns now being
sent up from the Subordinate Divisions, and
our extensive private. correspondence, there
ushers forth the glorious bow of promise,
that the deluge of intemperance that has
prevailed for two years past, is about to SUBJ
side and the Sun Of Temperance already
gilds the horizon, and will soon reach the
zenith in prosperity and influence, as Of
yore.
Couragel friends of the cause Let us
labor on for in this, as in all other good
causes, "we shall reap if we faint not" We
feel more hopeful and confident than we have
for wears past,

Remembrance of Past Benefits.

| once called on a neighbor, says old
Humphrey, who was watering al old stump
of a ~geranium, which seemed to mi to give
very little promise of either leaf or flower.
"Neighbor," said I, "Your labor will be
lost"
Perhaps So" said he "but I can hard
ly part with my old tree for all that. I
cannot help calling to my mind what it has
been, and how often it has made my window
look cheerful with its fresh, green leaves,
and its fine scarlet flowers"
This reply silenced me, for I thought in
my heart that my neighbor was right and
I was wrong. It is a good sign to remem-
Der past advantages.
[ called on a friend who was giving q
mouthful of oats in a seiye to an old horse
grazing in his field.
"You may corn your horse" said I, al
much as you will, but It is not likely thai
he will ever be able to work again."
"True," replied he; "but Ihave no wisf
to forget the work he has done for me-
Many a weary day has he been my com
panion, carrying me safely on his back o.
drawing me in my gig; and while old Din
ger lives I hope never to grudge him
mouthful of grass or corn"
"Right," thought /, Sand the feeling
a creditable one, but it is not always, no
often, that a poor brute falls into such GOO
hands. l shall think the better of you TO
your humanity"
I called on a relative who was waited O.
by a very old servant, who made sad blum
ders; indeed, the old man was almos
blind, and very feeble. "Old Peters da
is over" said I; "sad blunders he makes
and sad blunders he will make for his da
is gone by"
81 know it." replied my relative, s'but
his day is gone by, mine is not, and viii
live, Peter shall have a home under th
roof of the master be has so faithful,
served. He has been a good servant
me, and to my father before me, and rigl
little do l expect from him now in the wa
OF service. Peter, I say, has served m
and 1t IS now my turn to serve Peter"
| honor my kind hearted relative for h
attention to an old servant. So that,
speak the truth, I got good from my neigI
Dor, my friend, and my relative.

barrassed and restrained, so much SO that he
will be forced to discontinue his attentions,
which very reasonably gives rise to the be-
lief that he has been Observation-Disclosures
ne is branded as a 'hirt.' And Mr.. Editor,
though it is a serious charge on the fair
daughters of Eve, I nevertheless dare assert
it, that if they do not even assist in propaga-
ting the reports, they are not as ready and
willing to put them down as they should be.
Ii you are misrepresented ladies, the press is
open to your prolific pens, as are the ears Of
men to your ever valuable tongues. And
again, Mr.. Editor / address you, supposing
you are acquainted with these things) young
ladies are too ready to believe their male
friends are going to address them, when they
have never dreamed Of such an Intention
Let them never suppose until they are inter
rogated positively on the subject. Such a
course is well calculated to sunder the ties
OF true friendship, make enemies when there
would have been immutable friends, and
brings to a low ebb the social intercourse be
tween the sexes. BENEDICK.

Pass the Horse thief round

H reader will remember that some weaks
ago, Mr.. W. FL. Clendennin, McDauieps p
o., Alamance Co. N. c., advertised a stolen
horse. He had learned that his horse was
found in the woods near the road, about half
way between Tally Hol and Oxford, tied to
a sapling and his throat cut! The fendish
thief doubtless entertained fears of detection.
as Mr.. G. was in close pursuit at Tally Ho!
and Oxford, and for this reason DESTROYED the
horse. What ever was the motive, it was a
most fendish act.
Mr.. Z. had reasons for suspicioning a shoe
maker by the name of Jim jackson with the
theft, and further developments have more
fully confirmed him in that belief: He fol.
owed him into Granville, hearing of him
only at such places as he called for his m eals,
though he had no horse that any one saw.
and about the time he gave up the search, a
man giving his name as jackson made his
appearance in Oxford and engaged to work
with a shoemaker of that place. He remain
ed three or four days, and, while there, told
that he had a fine sorrel horse coming on with
a drove and wanted to sell or swap him on
his arrival. He went out of town., pretend
ing to go to some mans house after his tools
was gone a few hours-returned and soon
afterwards left secretly.
jackson is represented as being a young
man of low stature, would weigh about 100
or $50 pounds, very little beard, tender and
puffy, narrow shoulders, light thin hair,
round face, freckled, blush eyes. small hands,
of a downcast look and the skin of his face
and hands has a dry and peculiar appear
; ance. We saw the chap on one occasion
%ourself and think we could identify him by
his skin alone if seen under any circumstan-
ces except that of having been converted into
leather.
There have been several instances of horse
stealing recently, and the probabilities are,
that some concerted plan of action is adopted
by a vhlainous gang for the persecution of
their criminal purposes.
! Editors who feel a willingness to aid il
f bringing the wicked to judgement and cur
! tail as much as possible the preparation of
; crime land they all are prompted by such
worthy motives, be it known,) will confer +;
: favor upon the community by transferring thu
3 material portions of the above to their col
s umns. Pass the horse thief around with 3
vim
