POLICY OF THE FREE STATE PARTY IN
KAN9AH

There were mass and delegate Con-
ventions Of Free State men assembled
at Grasshopper Falls, X. t., the other
day to decide upon plan Of action. and
II was determined to 60 to the polls.
and protect them, il possible. from Bor-
der Ruffian assaults, and vote., The
spirit Of the meeting is well set forth in
the following resolutions. which were
passed with decided emphasis in the ex-
preston Of feeling:
WHEREAS, Ii is Of the most vital
Importance to the people Of Kansas that
the Territorial Government should be
controlled by the bona fde citizens there
OF and
WHEREAS, Gov. Walker has repeat
edly pledged himself that the people of
Kansas shall have a full and fair vote at
the election 10 be held on the first Mon
day in October, for delegateto Congress,
Members Of the Territorial Legislature,
and other officers, therefore.
Resolved, Thatwe. the people Of Kan
sas. in mass Convention assembled,
agree TO participate in said election.
RESOLVED, That in thus acting we re-
ly upon the faithful fulfilment of the
pledge Of Gov. Walker. and that VIC, as
heretofore, protest against the enact
ments forced upon us by the votes Of the
people Of Missouri.
RESOLVED. That the mass meeting
proceed TO the appointment Of q Com
mitlce to wait upon the Territorial au-
thorities, and urgently insist upon a re-
vision and correction Of the wicked ap-
portionment endeavored TO be forced up
on the people of Kansas, to govern the
selection OF mem bers OF the Territorial
RESOLVED, That Gen. j. II. Lane be
authorized and empowered TO tender to
Governor Walker the force organised by
him under the resolution passed by tho
Convention at Topeka on the 18th Of
July last, to be used for the protection of
The ballot box.
Resolrsd, That this mass meeting
express their unalterable determination
10 adhere to the Topeka constitution
and government, and that all our action
shall be pointed toward setting that gov
eminent in motion, in q legitimte man
ner, ct an early day.

pa- The Republicans of Tippecanoe,
White, Benton, and Jasper counties,
have nominated Hon. Charles II. Test,
Of White. as candidate for Circuit Judge.
In speaking Of this nomination the La
fayette Journal says:
Judge Test was nominated without
opposition. The nomination is an excel
lent one. Judge Test, is admirably
qualified for the position. There is no
one in the circuit more so. There are
many Republicans. who, if the party had
placed upon the ticket an incompetent
man, had expressed determination to
support Judge Petit, about whose legal
qualifications there could be no serious
question. The nomination of Judge
Test removes all difficulty on that head.
lie is Judge Pettit's equal in every nec-
essary qualification for the position, and
in some respects he is decidedly his su-
perior. He is less despotic. less preju-
diced. has greater personal dignity, and
would suffer is right arm to be Topped
of before no would soil the ermine BY
defending, as Judge Petit. did in the
Fountain County election case, into the
dirty pool-the lowest sink-of party
politics. He is able and upright, and
would be an honor 10 the bench. We
trust we shall be able to chronicle his
triumphant election.

MoLAssEs rRoM THE SORGHUM.

A planter of South Carolina informs
the Charleston Courier Of the results
of his experiments in making syrup
from tho sorghum. He says:
ain July it began to thrive sufiici-
emily to encourage our making ar
rangements to try its worth, as soon
as it should mature. For this end,
and not in view of quantity from the
little patch that was ripening, / had q
small oak mill of two upright rollers
made on the place, which, Of course
cost but the time used for its manu-
facture-and yesterday, Aug. 18th,
the cane being nearly ripe we ground
twenty-five stalks (25) sons long and
others short. The juice san freely,
and there were obtained some three
quarts of the saccharine matter
This was put in common iron pot,
and boiled for couple Of hours The
residum was a sweet and agreeable
syrup, which quite astonished as its
taste delighted those who had looked
very unbelieving for good result
"Why, Mosser, says one of these COL
ored sceptics, ''dis good as molasses,"
while the eyes Of others of the tribe
rolled raptuously, in thought of the
sweet time coming. This syrup is,
in color, similar to treacle, andin taste
a little like the preserved tomatoe.-
The three quarts of saccharine gave
less than quart Of the syrup, but the
small measure is referred to the very
Inferior growth of the cane, as before
stated, and not to its probable product,
on good soil adapted to its nature,
and with seasons more favorable than
our last spring. With the expert
ment | am completely satisfied; and
of its worth, in adding to the comfort
of our negroes, there can be no ques-
ton. Another year will see on the
place of every considerable planter
some acre sown with this novel seed,
as ii will also find the apparatus me-
ccssary to the sure and desirable is
