and hopeless, and that Aanzas must
be Free State, were making every
cxertion to entice the people they so
oppressed to abandon their old ground
and unite with them the Dem ocratic
party in forming party under their
banners, so they could claim the hon
or Of making tkisa Erse State. Let
us not forget who were and are our
enemies. We cannot trust them
We must not be ensnared by Gov.
WALKER's willy schemes. The Gov
ernor comes into the Territory and
makes fine speeches and fair promises
IA question did he bring any
wool along with him !? ! Plenty of it,
but 1t does him no good, though hc
thinks it does Laughter !. AS I
was saying he comes here and makes
gassy speeches and soft-soap palaver-
ings, tells us that Kanzas will be q Free
State and all this sort of thing-but
we must abandon the Topeka consti-
tuition He tell us he will have all
the Indian titles extinguishod shall
have four sections Of land appropria-
ted to every township for school pur-
poses,-shall have a railroad passing
by every mans door in the Territory
shall be the happiest, the greatest,
the noblest and the richest people in
the nation, If we will forsako the To-
peka Constitution 1t is just like
the attempt of Satan on the mount to
induce our Savior to turn traitor and
| Join his ranks, WALKERS briberies
are similar to that Of the DEVILS. A
certain gentleman here has remarked
that tie principles of the Topeka
constitution are right, but that hi
believes Congress will refuse to ad
NIT us under it if we apply again fol
admission into the Union under it
He thinks that because we were un
successful the first time we will b.
again, and is in favor, therefore, 70,
policy's sake, of abandoning)o g)our or
ganization and accepting something
new. He says that the Democratic
party are in power now, and unles
we do something to court their favo
they will reject us. All this is tn
argument of the timid and the coward
If you knS0 we are right, why no
stand up boldly and fairly and main
tain it? Are we to bend down upol
our knees and kiss the hands of ou
oppressors, or sacrifice our homo
and principle for thirty pieces of sill
yer, for the hope of sliding a littl
easier into the Union? Never
maintain that the Topeka constitu
ton was legally organized, and
challenge any one here to prove thA
it was not. lam much pleased wit
the spirit manifested here, and Icon
: gratulate you upon the choice select
ion of delegates you have made t
represent you at Topeka.
During the election for delegates
several racy speeches were made b

City on the 4th inst, in speaking Of
the zigzag course pursued by Gov.
WALKER since his arrival in the Ter
ritory, compares him to the man who
inquired of boy the way to cer-

Says the man -
Won't you please to show me the
way to----?"
BoY--"Yes, sir; with pleasure
You first 80 down that hill yonder
you then go up the next till you come
to big black stump; about q mile
farther you will see small tree turn
to the left and proceed about one
mile and you will see sheep pasture;
go through the pasture and climb
over the fence at the other end and
you will como to a little tree in the
woods turn to the left of the tree
and go about mile farther and you
will see the best grove Of timber you
ever saw p
Maxwell, what Of that?"
BoY--"Why, sir if you amt lost
by that time then I'll be d-----d!"
That's precisely the way, said
Mr.. WooD, with Gov. Walker. He
6rst speaks at Leavenworth and
makes fair promises and pleases the
people there; he proceeds to Law
renee and makes flowery little speech

shall be protected in their rights &c.

mak&the celebration complete one.
and everything passed off harmoni-

At 10 o'clock the Ottawa RangswI.
guests and citizens assembled at tho
Office of the FREEMEN's CHAMPION.
where they were arranged in march
ing order by the Grand Marshal,
THOMAS MEwmNNEY, when the pro-

to the United Brethren Church, where
they were Joined by the ladies and
the Prairie City Sabbath School.r-
As they were about toproceed toths
arbor on Liberty Hill, the Sabbath
School of Centropolis, in wagons.
decorated with flags and banners, pre-
senting most imposing appearance,
were observed approaching up Santa
Fe street. The procession waited for
the Centropolis school to join them
and then marched to the arbor. The.
procession presented q grand and imr
posing spectacle. At the head was,
the military band Of the Lawrence

present than was expected and also to
the scarcity Of table furniture, many

THE STATE FAIR.

The fair premiums are now ready for the inspec-

VILE and Of the State generally, will be proud of
the arrangement. A large sum of money has been
judieicusly expended by the Executive Committee
in putting up the grounds and we know of none
better or more conveniently arranged The amphi-
theatre seats are entirely covered with a shiugled
roof, affording secure protection against the sun
and rain. The other buildings, particularly the
ladies reception rooms, are arranged for the COM
fort and convenience of guests; and we do not see
how the fair grounds can fail to become the
most popular resort of our citizens.
The fair will be formally opened, on Monday
morning next, with address by Gov. johnson,
President, eZofieo, of the Bureau.
The Secretary has issued the following pro-
gramme for the week:
