From tho Memphis Eagle and Enquirer,
Z, Il. SIantOn's Position.

Mr.. Henry Boynton, pro-slavery man, OF st.
Louis, No, writes follows of Mr. F. P. Stanton,
the acting Governor of Kansas whose removal
from Office by the President caused our contempt
rary of the appeal to say:
1--WE rejoice that Mr. Stanton has been made an
cx ample of by the President of the United States,
by his summary removal from the Office he held"
For the sake of party, our neighbor casts off a
Southern man, devoted to the interests of the
South and attaches himself to the car of Freesoil-
ism.
ST.. LOUIS, Dec 10, 1857
MFsaRs EDIToRs:-The impression which seems
generally prevail, that Acting Governor Stanton,
of Kansas Is inclined to show undue favor to the
free state party is entirely unfounded. He ia a
thOrou Oh pro-savery man, and his recent action in
converting the lie -slpture, has been done with
IRENE reluctance, and only when his imperative
duty as an kouest honorable and patriotic man,
left him no other course to pursue. Opposed to
the action of the BecomptOn constitutional con-
yeutiou in refusing submit their constitution en-
tire to the people, Is the great mass of the demo
cratic as we'll as the entire free party Of the
territory. Every political paper, with two excep.
tons il assailug, with patriotic vigor, the mon
-trous principle Of forcing constitution upon the
people against their will. Great excitement pre-
walls throu ghou the territory but j. generally hop
| ed that the Legislature muy devise some peaceful
means of thwaTtng the designs OF the ariStOcracy
If Kansas is admitted under the constitution with
out is submission the people for ratification,
resistance 70 ''the bitter end" will doubtless eusue
| The "Democratir party" have su d call Tor
mass convention, for the purpose of memoriazing
Congress TO pass enabling act, under which
new constitution may be framed.
The converting OF the Legislature, Instead Of
tending TO increase the excitement, as tn Admin
strttion would bave the country believe, app AIRED
absolutely necessary to prevent violence, and per-
hapz avert the horrors of civil war
The people demand the great American privI-
lege of sells oyerument-ask nothing more, and
viii submit TO nothing less.
Such was the position of affiirs when left tn
territory d few days ago. Yours truly.

of the red gI.yer think he slays,

"If the red slayer think he Stays,
Or if the slain think he is slain,
They know not well the subtle ways

The fact is that Emerson has lately learned the
game of Euehre, and being fascinated herewith
wished to express his feelings on the subject but
being quite unable to DO so in ordinary English I'M
fortunately got of the above extremely mystying
stauzt. little careful consideration of the terms
used convinces one of this at once. Thus "the
red slayer" refers to the Right Bower, (probaby
the Jack of Hearts > ''the slain" is undoubtedly
the Lett Bower, not guarded, and you perceive
that Emerson probably euchred bis adversary by
passing" keeping the Ace and some strong
cards and coming again after the Bowers were out
Now all this might nave been much more simply
eXpressed-as for instance:
