The NatcheZ Free Trader in its issue of the 18th
inst, thus refers, in reply to article in the Baton
Rouge Advocate, touching the Buchanan-W aker
treachery in Kansas We commend it to the consid-
GRAFTON of Democratic readers, it comes from
Democratic source OF the highest respectability: Sc
Now, we can hardly understand how it is that the
Advocate is in possession OF " good authority that
Juses it in saying that the administration does not
approve of Waber's course :; and yet does not know
what Mr. Buchanan's reasons are for not removing
him does not know whether it will sustain the adj
ministration not. We confess that poor powers
of logic cannot reconcile this inconsistency or fthom
this process OF ratiocination. p ~ =
No: we are convinced that neither the Advocate
any else is authorized to say that Mr. Buchanan
repudiates the course OF Walker in Kansas Had not
the administration approved and sanctioned and even
probably advised, the policy pursued by Walker, it
would long ago have been announced. The cry of
opposition raised by the Southern Democracy would
have been respected their calls for Walkers removal
would have been needed this, if it not true
| that the cunning and treacherous Walker has the
administration in his power on this question. Rich
ard Houseman never had the murderer Engene
| Aram, in more pitiabe fix than has Robert j.
| Walker the administration. The damning wrong,
| the swinde, the outrage and the murder OF the
South was committed in secret in the White House at
| Washington Mr.. Buchanan was the principal and
Robert j. Walker was the agent. And now the mod
ern Houseman has Eugene Aram Buchanan in his
power. He can not recall him, for in doing so he
| knows he will betray his own guilt. This is about

with, and approval of, Walkers course Unauthor
lied and irresponsible persons may attempt to plaster
the treachery of the administration to its true
friends in the South; but it will avail not, for the gi
gantic and humilating fact is apparent that MIR.
Buchanan by retaining Walker in Office in opposition
to the wishes of the Southern Democracy, and that
too without expressing the slightest disapproya Of
his course has himself become responsible for Walkers
course, and upon his head must be heaped all the de-
| nunciaton that has been applied to his appointee.
| But when will the Advocate determine whether it
| sustains the administration not 1t says if Mr..
Buchanans reasons not good for retaining Walker,
it will then oppose the administration. Pray, tell us
how long you propose to give the administration to
act in the matter. The Advocate should renember
that it is the consequences resulting from Gov Walk
er's action in Kansas that the South is concerned
about. We care not fig what Mr.. Buchanans rea-
sons for retaining Walker, after he has consum-
mated his Abolition policy in Kansas. The South is
not to be cheated in any such way Faithless Off
| cias and hungry ravenous spoilseekers may bow
down to blind God and sustain and praise treach-
cry; but the independent masses Of the South will
maintain their rights and denOunce fahlessness wher
they find it. The Democracy OF Mississippi feel
themselves wronged andsbetrayed; and it matters
not to them who perpetrated the wrong or executed
the treason-whether Robert J. Walker or James
