The Kansas Herald Of Freedom, which
was destroyed by the Border Rufians, under
Sheriff Jones, at the sacking Of Lawrence, last
summer, has been re-established. The brave
and daring editor. Geo. W. Brown, ESQ.,, has
been imprisoned all summer with Gov. Rob
inson, and others. because they desired and
endeavored to make Kansas free to white Ia
Dor. Mr.. Brown had taken to this far of re-
gion power press and two hand presses, a
large assortment Of type, valuable library,
etc. He having been arrested for no offence
except loving freedom better than slavery,
this mob, under the protection of President
Pierce, broke up his presses, threw his type
into the river, burned up his library and set
fire to his Office. But with courage and de-
votion worthy the cause, Mrs. B. resolved,
while her husband lay in prison, to raise the
means for re-establishing the HerGldof Free
dom. which was such terror to border ruff
ans and slavery propagandists. For this
purpose she visited the free States with
simple statement Of their wrongs The re-
appearance of the Kansas Herald of Freedom
is the result. Mr.. Brown is out Of prison
on bail. The Herald Of Freedom is a large
and beautiful sheet, published at Lawrence,
Kansas Territory, by g. W. Brown Z Co., at

pass freely at Lawrence, enabling Eastern
people to send the price of subscription with
out impediment.-Ithaea, N. Y. Journal

where the type were thrown by the Missou-
rians on the 2lst of May last With an able
corps Of assistants, Mr.. B. promises that the
Herald shall not be whit the less indepen-
dent and fearless for the persecution and i'm
prisonment Of the editor that whether it
leads to fortune or the scaffold, it shall be q
terror to tyrants and a sworn foe to dema-
gogues. Persons who wish to keep posted

We gladly welcome back to our table this
fearless and independent newspaper, the
| Office Of which. it will be remembered, was
destroyed at the sack Of Lawrence in May
last. In spite Of seemingly unconquerable
difficulties, its publisher, G. ". Brown, ESQ.,,
has succeeded in re-establIshing this paper,
and we doubt not his indomitable energy
will make it succeed, if he only receives but
a small portion of that aid from the friends
of Free Kansas which he is entitled to- Two
dollars would be we'll invested in subscribing
for the Herald Of Freedom.-WeRonG, Min,

The Head Of Freedom, the Office of which
was destroyed by the government ruffians
a few months since, has been revived in an
enlarged form. G. W. Brown, ESQ, its ed
itor, is again in the chair, not at ali subdued
| by the treatment he received from his perse-
cutors. 1t is probable that he will write
much that will conflict with the section of
the Kansas law that denies the right of the
citizen to write or speak his opinion upon
certain questions, and Gov. Geary will be
placed in position where he will have to
either ignore that portion of the present Kan
sas law or enforce it. He will undoubtedly
act according to the pressure of circumstan-
ces. The right TO think and to express
thoughts is not to be given up in Kansas and
the Herald Of Freedom will be the last to
yield, should the struggle between slavery

G. W. Brown, Esq, whose Imprisonment for
four months has not in the least tanned his
courage. has again devoted himself to his

Kansas. his eloquent and powerful pen.

The publication of this able advocate of the
! free State cause in Kansas has been resumed.
1t will be recollected that the editor and pro-
prietor, G. w. Brown, was arrested on a
charge of treason in May last, soon after
which his press and types were destroyed in
the sack of Lawrence. Mr.. Brown was de-
tanned prisoner for four months and then
discharged. The Herald is now revived by
means of contributions collected by Mrs.
Brown while her husband was in prison.
