Gov. Walker and Kansas.

The course of Gov. Walker in reference to
to Kansas, has excited the indignant com
ments Of the Southern Journals generally.
Every one Sofshis acts since his appointment
has committed him to policy. nntagonistio to
that of the pro-slavery men Of the Territory,
and which, iEadopted, must mako Kansas a
free State. Tie Inaugural Address is free

men Of that party to participate in the election
| Of Delegates to the Convention, which meets
in September it assures them that pro-
slavery Constitution must be submitted 10 a
majority of the actual residents Of Kansas for
ratification or rejection it assumes that Kan.
sas must be FREQ State; and as some compen
sation to the Slave States ndulges a hope OF
establishing slavery, in-the Territory South of
it. In fine, the whole document pledges the
influence Of the Governor of Kansas to make
it free State.
We extract from the Augusta Conaitutio,,ul
ia the following clear statement of the Issues
presented to the people Of Kansas. and their
bearing not only upon the future Of Kansas
but Of the whole South:

Increase In the Cost of Food.

The Nashville Union contains lengthy ar.
ticle upon this subject in which it is shown.
that in spite of the newness and'natural fertil.
ity of the soil of this country. the price Of

/ GEN. LEWIS CAss..Thero is not the
least truth in the report that Gen. Cnss, is
failing, in either physical or intellectual
power. A correspondent Of the New York
Tribune says he does not seem day older
OF shade less vigorous and original in
mind that lie did ten years ago. Indeed,
says this correspondent, we should say that
he had gaining something in these, respects,
toI his speeches lastsseck were great deal
shorter and more to the point than the ten
hour discourse he used to pronounce in the
Senate. The writerin the Tribune adds
1t was our good fortune TO be conveyed
in the same train with the distinguished
Secretary from Cincinnati nearly to San
dHsky. lie sat steadily upright for the
whole six hours, never onco falling into a
dose of fatigue, as some young men did.
