CHINA.-The merchants and shippers
of New York and Boston have become
somewhat alarmed at the course of events
in China, and committee was sent to
Washington to induce the President to
send special commissioner to that coun-
try, which was refused. The President,
however, has ordered commissioner Par
ker to examine into the conduct of Keenan,,
the consul at Hong Kong; and if it is as
certained that he carried the U. s. flag at
the head of the forces, at the attack up
ON Canton, he is to be forthwith removed.
Nothing is said about protecting American
citizens in China. We infer from what
we can learn that the present administra-
ton does not consider American citizens
resident in China entitled to protection.

AnhIrs In Knnsns.

The Topeka correspondent of the New
York Times, in giving an account of the
Free State Convention, says:
Considerable discussion was had on the
expediency of perfecting the present State
organization. Gov. Robinson was in favor
of having the Legislative Assembly meet
in June next, and proceed to enact code
of laws, to incorporate towns, and all
things necessary to secure the perfection
Of the State Government. He considered
it absolutely necessary to retain the Tope-
ka Constitution, and never give itup. He
stated that the pro-Slavery Constitutional
Convention would not only adopt Con-
stitution for Kansas, but it would create a
State Government, and put it into active
operation, without delay, and he was desi-
rous of having our Free State Government
to put in force in opposition to it. The re-
marks of the Governor were marked with
a high-toned manliness of character, and
received with great favor. The best of
feeling, and the greatest unanimity of SEN
timent in regard to our duties, seemed to
prevail in the convention.
Gov. Robinson's influence is greater in
Kansas than that of any other person.
He has gained the confidence of the peo-
pie by an Independent course, and he will
retain it, in spite of those whose envy
makes them dishonest and foolish.

FRIenTFUL MURDERS by SLAvEs.-The
Southern papers record some of the most
frightful murders perpetrated by slaves
upon their masters, I'D strongly intimate
that these things are Becoming much more
frequent than formerly. We have no
doubt of it, and we believe they will con-
tinue to grow more frequent, in proportion
as the slaves become more enlightened in
regard to their degraded condition, and
learn to value more highly their liberty.
In almost every instance, the murders were
committed by slaves who were either pre-
pairing to run away, or by those who were
retaken.

WHAT WILL HE Do.-The New York
Tribune puts the matter of the resignation
of Geary and the appointment of Robert
]. Walker, very clearly into few words.
Walker goes forth armed with the promise
of unlimited power. If he wishes Judg-
es TO be removed-removed they are. If he
wishes troops-troops he is to have, In
short he is to have according to promise }
exactly that which Geary wished, and not
getting resigned in despair. ''Why,"
says the Tribune, "have these conditions
been denied to him but accorded to Gov
ernor Walker? Why but because the
Border Rufian usurpers oflegislative pow
er over Kansas have insisted on Geary's
downfall, and effected it?'' Again, the
Tribune says, "when men tell us he will
do fairly, we cannot help asking, do WHAT?
Will he sustain the usurped predominance
of the Border Rufians? Will he enfol ce
the bogus laws? Will he consider resis-
tance to the edicts of the Missouri Kansas
Legislature a rebellion, justly punishable
with death?" These are the questions in
the case.

NIoAnAouA-Thela latest news from Mic.

NIcARAaUA.-The latest news from MIC
aragua is more favorable to Walker. His
army is said to be in good condition and
wellprovisioned. He attacked and burned
st. George. and in two engagements with
the allies n ,ar Rivas was victorious. The
loss of the allies is estimated at from
three to six hundred killed, and an equal
number wounded, whileshis own loss, in
killed and wounded did not exceede tsSe6-
ty-fve. 1t is further. stated that Presi-
dent Rivas has been assassinated, and that
two prominent natives, { Chillon and Cow
as) are secretly aiding Walker. Col.
Lockridge had been reinforced by an arri-
val Of Texans, with provisions and anu
milton, and was confident of taking San
Carlos.

Correspondence of the Missouri Democrat.
LEAvENwoRTH, Kansas,l

March goth 1857.

The emigration to Kansas, which, du-
ring the past winter, promised SO largely,
seems to have commenced now in earnest.
Every train from Boston and New York to
st. Louis, is crowded with passengers, and
the boats from your city and Jefferson are
daily pouring out their swarms of settlers
into the territory. 1t is estimated that al
ready from eight to ten thousand people
have arrived at Kansas City, while thou
sands of others pass on to Wyandot, Quin-
daro and this city. The arrivals at this
point will, during the present week, aver
age from four to five hundred per day
Probably two-thirds, and perhaps, more,
of the passengers are farmers and me-
chanics, who will become actual and val
liable settlers; the others are spectators,
or those who come to "look around" and
then go back for their families. Nearly all
of them are young men, and many of them
newly married.

ENGLAND AND FRANCE BEG TO BE Ex

ENGLAND AND FRANCE BEG TO BE Ex-
CUsED FROM AIDING SPAIN.-MADRID
March 7th.-The probability Of hostilities
with Mexico begins to excitea good deal
of attention here The affair is complica-
ted. On the one hand, the government is
10th to go to war with that republic, lest
its operation should in some way give
pretext for umbrage to the United States,
of which power it stands in awe. The
dislike to risk dispute with what the
Spanish papers are wont to call the North
American Colossus, is augmented by re-
fusal which, I am assured, has been re-
ceived from England and France to the
made to them for protection for
the island of Cuba while an expedition
went against Mexico.
