According to our ST. Louis despatch
Gov Gesry hes sesieasd, having, according
TO his own account, been very badly reated,
and been compelled 70 use $4,000 OF his
owA money to maintain his administration,
becAn 10 Mr.. Pierce had mol performed his
promisea. Our Warrington dispatches
howeveE, represent Gov. Geary's remain
Ing IN e&ce as contingent upon being prop
erly sustained by Mr.. Buchanan. The new
President, it 10 sid, wishes to retain him,
as also the Northern Democrats, while tho
eorth,rn wing Of the party want to have
! him out OF the way, The Governor . now
on his way TO Washington TO represent his
case in person, WHITTIER he was proceeded
BY large delegation from Kansas I'M
friendly TO him, and WIN have been working
to secure his removal. A knowledge OF
theif intentions in all probability precipita
ted his journey, aud his resignation, II he
has formerly resigned,
Governor Geary thinks the establish
ment Of Slavery Constitution inevitable,
and we must admit that everything seems
to conspire TO that end. A case IL now
presented to test the smooth professions Of
Mr. Buchanan in his Inaugural Address In
favor Of popular sovereignty. He declared
em phaticaly that it should be maintained

overborne by fraud and violence Let him
