In reference TO the rumored resignation
Of Gov Geary, tho N. Y. Sun says:
ave trust that the resignation will not
be accepted, II Gov. Geary can be indu-
ced TO reconsider his resolution, and re-
main in the Govomorship. It would be
an encouragement to the disturbcrs Of the
peace Of Kansas, should the recent trouble
DO followed by the Governors surrender
Of his difficult position, and President
Buchanan might not DO able to GIL the Of
fec with one possessing equal qualifca-
tons with Gov. Geary.
Indeed. we regard it as Of the greatest
importance to Kansas, and Of great impor-
lance 10 tho whole country, that change
in the Govornoship Of the Territory do
not occur at the present time, but that, on
the contrary. Gov. Geary be induced to
remain, and that the General Government
sustain him In ON impartial and energetic
administration Of executive duties"
The hope expressed by the Sun is such
as is cherished by every calm thinking.
diSpassionate Northern man, without dis
tinction OF party. In the trouble which
he has had to encounter, and after all the
information which has been given to the
public respecting them, there can be but
one opinion In reference to the general
course of Gov. Geary. The wonder Is,
that, under the circumstances by which
he has been surrounded, he has accom-
plished so much and committed so few
errors. Not one man in thousand could
gil the place Of Gov. Geary.-Sentinel.
This endorsement of Gov. Geary by
the Democratic organ Is worth very little
to Geary probably, but a good deal to the
Republican press of the State whose ac-
counts of the outrages in Kansas the Gov
ernor sustains throughout, and which the
Democratic papers pronounced "Kansas
lies" The Sentinel thinks that Geary
deserves the good opinion of all parties
for his judicious management Of the com
pick and cancerous Kansas troubles, and
pronounces him zone in a thousand.D-
We can't pass quite SO unqualified an eulo.
gy on his administration, or character
There have been several unjust acts per
petrated by him, which could have beer
as casily-and events have proved more
safely for himself-done otherwise. Blu,
still we believe he has done better thar
any Democrat could have been expected tc
do. and better than we anticipated he
would do. And the bitter malgnity o.
the Democratic Missourians. which ht
has earned, is proof of no little wise ant
fair conduct on his part.
Now this judicious officer, who has de-
served SO we'll of the country, resigns hi
Office and comes back 10 the States, be
cause, as he says, the Democratic Admin
istration lied to him, promised him sup
/ port which was refused, and compelled
J him to pay eleven thousand dollars out o
his own pocket to bring about that quie
state Of affairs for which the Sentinel 8,
praises him. And ho says further, tina
, every story Of the wrongs committed b,
the Missourians, which circulated through
: tho country last fall, is true, and that hal
has not been told. This model Governor
> whom the Democrats papers so praise
, tells them that they willfully slandere'
f.. good mon, and excused notorious villains
l when they pronounced tho accounts O
o Kansas wrongs "Kansas les" We shoul,
q like to see the Sentinel and other Demo
f, cratic papers quote tho above attract sid
by side with Geary's statement to the Mis-
souri, Democrat. In the meanwhile "
put the endorsement Of Gcary on recor,
: for use, for as sure as God lives there
: not Democratic paper in the State tina
: will not call him a ''liar' and "vllain" 4
six months, II tho course he Is now upo
leads him into the same collision with tn
' pro-slavcry men Of Missouri that Cover
: nor Reader encountered. Reader met III
!. Same endorsement from Democratic pa
pcrs at iirt that Gcary now has. But n
= man was oftener called liar and traito
afterwards than he, by those same papers
: Democracy Is a grert institution.
