How came the Defalcation :

There has been but little disposition to make
political capital out of the recent deieiea-
ton. Some petty democratic journals, whose
editor. rely upon their lying propensities to carry
them through every emergency, have been bold to
charge it all upon Mr.. Gibson and the Republican
party. But the mass OF the people-the honest
men of all parties-have said but little, read all
thew could get hold Of and sought to errit out the
author OF the enormous robbery.
The facts as far as we can collect them at this
time. plainly indicate that MIR. Gibsons error con-
ssts in having sought to conceal the deacation oil
his brother-ln-law hoping that the deficiency might
be made up without the public knowing tn"' I"
had ever existed. That Breslin was delaulter 10
nm amount over two hundred thousand do'iarS'
was well known, but no one suspected that ne
had failed to account for the money received from
county treasurers to pay the January interest Mr..
Gibson discovered this TACT when he settled with
the county Treasurcrs in March, and then should
haveexposed it.
To Illustrate this point, let us state acase. The
interest on our State debt falls due on the rSt o
January and July The State Treasurer is there
fore Obliged to call upon each county Treasurer in
December for their proportion Of the amount Mr.
Spnk sends either certificate of deposit, an east
ern draft or the currency to the amount oil three
thousand dollars The State Treasurer immediate
" returns a receipt for the amount THIS receipt
Mr.. s. takes with him to Columbus on the first oil
March and in his final settlement it is received as
40 much money Mr. Breslin it seems did not make
NH account to his successor for the money thus re-
ceeived from csunty Treasurers in December
Therefore, when the rreasurers settled up in March
Mr.. Gibson first discovered that his predecessor
had received this large amount of money, for wLIcl
he had made no account Conccaling this fact
from the public, then, was his greatest iault.
Mr.. Gibson has published an address to the cit
izens Of Seneca county, in Which he says;
"NIy predecessor failed to paywhat he owed the
State by a very large sum. He paid what the ac
counts Showed against him, but failed Ito put me ii
funds to meet receipts, which he had gwen Count.
Treasurers. These were legally binding on th
State aud was compelled TO receive them Il
cash. When Mr. Breslin failed to put me IN pos
session of the funds should have made 1t public
This statement is confirmed by all the circuuAstan
ces in the case, and also by Mr.. Breslin's silence
for he would not be likely keep silent under suc
a charge. SO often repeated, if he could bring t
bear even a single palliating circumstance

The ".Law and Order" ruffian Deputy
Marshal Fain, of Georgia, acting in the ca
pacity of tax-gatherer, made visit to Law
renee last week. to collect taxes One of the
first men he met was Col. Eldridge, whose
splendid hotel Fain had been instrumental in
burning the year previous, and accosted him
thus;
Well; Colonel, I have come to town to
assess property, and collect taxes from you
and the balance of the citizens. Are you
ready to fork over 2"
"What Ask me for taxes, you d--d
villain. after barring up and destroying my
property! If should pay you with an ounce
of cold lead, it would be what you richly de.
serve If you have assessed any taxes on
my property, just take it out of that horse
you stole from my barn last Summer. Leave
my pr sence, and the sooner you make your
self scarce, the better for your health"
The scamp acted upon the hint, and took
himself back to Lecompton in double quick
time, to tell Walker how he had succeeded
in collecting taxes in Lawrence. The next
question is. what is Walker going TO do
about it p Chicago Tribune.

Kansas.

All prospec, for speedy and amicable settle
ynent of the Kansas troubles have again vanish
ed. and affairs are assuming even more threat
ming aspect than ever heretofore.
The free state mel declare that they will not
ray the taxes assessed by the bogus legislature
and Walker says the laws enacted by that body
shall be enforced if all the power OF the govern
ment is required TO execute them.
Il is stated that Walker is epprised oil the
fact that the constitution to be adopted by the
convention Of pro-slavery men will not be sub
mi,ted to the people for their ratification. The
free state legislature has been in session, and pro-
yided for the election of two delegates to Con-
press, and transacted other bushes necessary for
the progress of public affairs. They also re-
solved to persevere in demanding their sdmiS-
sion into the Union under the Topeka constltu-
lion.
Walker is addressing the people at different
points, but the free state men always prepare
for him aud he is fltctually answered.
If reports are reliable, the free state men will
number five TO Que of all the inhabitants of the
territory, and they are determined not to be
baffl. out Of theirrights by Walker and all OF
his border rufian comrades.

~ We have received the Eighth Annual
Announcement of the Female Medical College
of Pennsylvania, located in Philadelphia, for
the session of l857-59. AT the Sixth Annual
Commencement, held on the 23th of Februa y,
the degree of Doctor of Medicine was conferred
on seven ladies'. Since the foundation Of this
college, II ladies' have bsen in Attendance, and
the number is annually increasing. Among
those who have been in Attendance we notice
the following names from Ohio, to wit; Eliza
beth Grisell, Jane E. Huntington, Jane L Myera,
and Eliza L. s. Thomas. That women will
make good physicians, we have no doubt and
soma portions of the professional practice be-
longs to them. We therefore hope to see thi'
institution, which has already buffeted th'
waves of opposition, expand in usefulness and
prosperity.
