TRACES OF SIR JOHN FRANKIIN's PAR
ry.-The vague reports of last summer
in respect to new traces of some OF
Sir John Franklin's party arc made
somewhat more distinct in letter
from Red river settlement, Hudson's
Bay territory, published in the London
Times. The writer says:
IL have Just returned from -,
who was at Norway House last July,
and saw the man who brought an eX-
press to Sir George Simpson from Mr..
Anderson in Mackenzie's River district,
stating that Indians had brought over
reports to one of the trading posts in
that quarter that Indians had seen two
or more cncampments of whites on an
island on some point where Anderson
and Stewart turned back in 1853, and
that one of the encampments partlcu-
larly was quite fresh, supposed to have
been abandoned day or two before
the Indians saw it, and from the traces
it was thought there might have been
about ten or twelve men. could not

that Anderson and Stewart were with

WALKER AND BUCHANAN ON KANSAS
The following expressions OF opinion
ascribcd to Robert j. Walker, the
newly appointed Governor Of Kansas,
and President Buchanan, communica-
ted by the Washington correspondent
of the New York Evening Post, are
important if true ~
Governor Walker still maintains the
opinion expressed i'll his published ad-
dress to the people of Pennsylvania,
shortly before President Buchanan's
election, that fair trial of the princi-
pies of the organic act Of Kansas
must make it free State. In this
sentiment also, understand Mr.. Bu-
chanan concurs, and has avowed, with
more than his usual cxplicitness, to
some of the more ultra Southern poll.
ticians, that the democratic party OF
the North cannot safely stand the con,
tinuencc of the violent pro-slavery pol.
icy heretofore pursued in Kansas. The
President declares that it will do nc
good to the slaveholding section, and
will utterly ruin the Northern wing OF
the Democracy, to attempt by violence
to counteract the operation OF these
laws of God and Nature which mus,
ultimately make Kansas free State
So Mr.. Buchanan's friends report him
But the removal of Judge Lecompte
would be a much mere satistactor,
manifesto than any private avowals

DRIED SCoTr.-There is a difference of
opinion among the ultra southren jour
nails as to the effect of the Dred Scott
decision. The Charleston Mercury de-
nounces with much sarcasm and bitter
ness the Southern politicians who as
sumo that the question is settled, and
utters the following gloomy fore
bodings 4:
"Thc victory we have won may in
deed be glorious-morc glorious, be-
cause of the disaster of the engage
ment. But it is victory more fatal
perhaps than defeat, the forerunner of
complete subjection. Like the soldiers
of our revolution, they rise up stronger
from each struggle, with renewed vlS-
or and more determined resolution. -
We, exhausted by every effort, strick-
en-, intimidated but beat back momen-
tarily their fierce assaults that we may
cover our next retreat and leave them
in possession of our camp-iires. This
has been the history of our gallant
contest with this insignificant rabble
for the last fifty odd years. Again
we have passed through new strug'
gle, more insignificant at each meet
ing again our culors are flying over
our march, and again they are flying
over our retreat. Back! Back Oul
enemy is before us !! In go, when we
meet again, let us sec to 1t that we
have large swamp in our rear be
hind us--it may be convenient to COO

GLORIOUS TRIUMPH !

The returns of our charter election,
which we publish this morning, will
show a noble and prolific victory
achieved by the free white working
men of st. Louis. We call it noble,
because it has vindicated the rights
and dignity of white labor we call it
prolific, because it is but the precur-

is glory enough for one day. 1t is a
triumph that in Rome would have
crowned the victor with wreath o1
glory as he went up the Appian way

the whole people.
This victory likewise is more graft

The light in which the marriage re-
lation-once thought the holiest in life
is held in these monied times, is il
lustratcd by the following remark in a
New York paper:
"These seem to be wholesome and
indispensable precautions against the
loose manner in which marriages gen
orally are solemnized, involving, as
they often do, frauds against the own
ers of real estate, as we'll as intrigues
brought to bear upon innocent and
and inexperienced persons"
There it is at last, out and out.
Whatever else happens, VIC must be
careful that no frauds " are sommit-
ted upon " the owners of real estate"
Do not the words degrade the institu-
ton in the eyes of every one who ever
thought of such thing as Love?

Missouri RNLROADs.-The Railroad
bill lately passed by the Legislature
of Missouri provides for granting ad'
ditional State aid to the railroads of
the State as follows: To the Pac ific
road $l,OOO,OOO Southwest Branch
81 500, 900; North Missouri 81 900, 900;
Iron Mountain 100000; Platte Coun-
try 100000; Cairo and Fulton $780,
900. Total, $5,2OO,0OO.
The State reserves, says the st. Lou

on all the roads, their lands, rolling
stock and other property, to secure
the payment of the State bonds pro-
posed to be issued to these roads,
The entire State aid to be given to all
the roads when it shall all be absorbed
and all the roads built will not be far
from $25, 100000 But it will be sew
cral years before the roads can be fin
ished, even under the most favorable
circumstances, and the State bonds
will consequently be slow in issuing.
In charging upon the advantage Of
this measure, the Intclligeacer, says:
1--WE do not hesitate to express tho
belief that, with the vigorous execu
ton of our various Railroad contracts
and their completion within five years
we shall see at that time Missouri
doubled in population, and more than
doubled in the assessment of wealth,

used painted tea in China, but as the
foreigners pay a better price for it
when the leaves are made of one uni

the pure leaf, | at once determined to
