We have seen the Presidents message f;
and while according to it a higher degree of
ability and craftsmanship in most matters,
apart from Kanzas, than to the same docu-
ments of his predecessors, we must say it
t-Herods Herod in trucking to the South
ern infamy in Kanzas matters. That mes
sage is nothing less than declaration of
war against the people of our State in this
matter of the Swindling Constitution. We
shall publish a considerable part of that
message in our next. In the policy with
regard to the public lands We heartily con-
cur, only wishing Buchanan had gone a
little further and stated the fundamental
truth, that labor alone bestows value on land,
and that to labor belongs enough of the
public lands, free of all cost, as viii enable
it to maintain itself.

The Finances of the Government.

The surplus money in the national treas
ury has fast melted away, and the Govern
ment is even beginning to be badly troubled
with the shorts, The surplus has fallen
below eight millions, and the current re-
ceipts do not exceed two and half millions
per month,
The floating debt is also very large. and
viii probably reach ten millions. Congress
will be called on to authorize loan of ff-
teen or twenty millions.
Then again calculations are made that
the Mormon war viii exhaust at least thir-
ty millions in the next year. Upon the
whole, the financial men of the government
are in perplexity.

The NAv1Es OF FRANCE AND EEeLAND.-

The NAvIEs OF FRANCE AND ENGLAND
The Washington Union, of the 9Th inst,
contains carefully prepared list of the ma
w of France, from which we learn that it
is composed of 317 sailing vessels, carry
ing 9,176 G uns, and 920 steamers, carry
ing 4,901 guns-making a total of 537 yes
sells and 14,077 guns. According. to the
navy list of Great Britain for 1856, the eff
fective force of that country was 269 sail
ing vessels, carrying 1862 guns, and 95s
steamers. with 4,518 guns-making total
of 527 vessels and 1890 guns. Ii will
thus be seen that the navy of France ex-
ceeds that of Great Britain by 10 vessels
and 1877 guns. This is very small differ
ence. and the nayies of the most powerful
maritime powers in Europe may therefore
be set down as about equal

The Trua Ring

The Independent Democrat, of Concord,
n. H., in an article on Kanzas affairs, makes
use of the following forcibIe language with
regard to the duty of the people of Kanzas
at this crisis
'.They must stand on their rights. They
must refuse to have any part or lot in the
poisoned chalice their enemies are commend.
ing to their lips. They must stand on their
privileges as American citizens, and claim
the protection of the American Constitution.
They must protest 20 Congress against the
consumation of this unholy conspiracy.-
They must appeal to the whole country, and
especially to the people of the Free States,
to protect them against this damning scheme
of despotism. And failing ofrelief from all
these sources, they must appeal to the God
of their fathers and to their own strong
arms. If neither Congress, nor the Consti-
tuition, nor the nation can secure to them
their rights, they must be their own deliF-
erers and their own avengers" -

Another Governor Decapitated.

Secretary Stanton has been removed by
the President for calling the Territorial
Legislature together. Gen. Denver, SuPt.
of Indian Affairs. has been confirmed in
the Senate by vote of % to 10. Den
yer is a tool of the Ruffians. He is orig
inally from Virginia, from there to Ohio.
thence to Platte county, Missouri, where
he edited the Platte Aryus, sheet renown-
ed for its pro-slayeryism. He went to
Mexico and thence to California, where he
was elected to Congress, and got good fat
office for his subserviency. He is Border
Rufian all over, and the Free State men
can expect nothing from him but what they
take. He is only appointed for the emer-
gency, which consists in forcing the Gun
ningham Constitution on the people. As
he is bully of the Harvey school, du-
elist of The first water, an ultra in subserv-
iency to the south, an unserupulous politi-
clan in all respects, our people can judge
of what his appointment means. He has
issued an address. We have no comments
to make as we publish the document and
it speaks for itself.

yesterday was manned chiefly by Yankees,
who were willing to earn half dollar rather
than lie idle and earn nothing. To-day the
wood train was made up entirely of Ameri-
cans, most of them mechanics of various
trades, who have the good sense to take a
job at half dollar, rather than do nothing" !"

present at the eonating of the vote. If 3
nlaiority of the people are dissatisfied with
the results of these elections, they can SOON
change them IN a peaceable manner by
resort TO the ballot-box.
A very stringent law was passed at the
late session OF the Legislature providing
for the infiiction of severe penalties on per-
sons engaged In election frauds. This act
meets with my most hearty approval, and
if it is not yet sufficiently stringent, l viii
gladly assist in making it more so. 1t is
not possible to throw too many guards
around this great bulwark, which IS the
very foundation of our free institutions.
I cannot close this address without warn
ing the people against allowing themselves
to be drawn into quarrels originating IN con-
fiicting claims TO lands. This is a fruitful
source of difficulty in all new countries,
and in the present condition of affairs IN
this Territory. designing men will seek to
turn everything of the sort to political ac-
count. Many troubles and the loss of ma
ny valuable lives may be traced to this
cause, and people should be cautious about
taking sides on political grounds in such
matters as are of purely personal character.
In the discharge of my duties L viii take
such steps as will in my judgement best
contribute to carrying out the views above
expressed; for the majesty of the laws
must and shall be maintained. In these
matters shall expect the cooperation of
all good citizens, and should my expecta-
tions be realized, I have no fears that peace

Douglas Shrek Against the swindle

Douglas Shrek Against the SW1noIe.
The funniest summerset yet made by
this political acrobat, is the stand taken by
him in the Senate, against the ''Mrs. Cum
ningham Swindle.'' The speech he made
in opposition to the Presidents Kanzas
policy, in the Senate on the 9th inst, was
the strongest argument ever advanced in fa-
vor of the people of Kanzas, and the clear
est proof yet given as to the truth of the
frauds and villainies practiced here. He
dissected the Lecompton Swindle ably,
showing all the weak points, and clearly
proving that we would be right in the
adoption of any measures of resistance. He
gave notice that he should introduce an
enabling act The debate between Bigler,
of Penn, and Douglas, was a spectacle
worth looking on. Bigler fairly writhed
under the cool sarcasm and impudence of
his opponent. Douglas is making strong
fight, but we do not believe any more in
his honesty than we have hitherto done.

the Democratic press for their glorifcation

how? Is the Democratic vote of this State,

The Doctrine of Negro Equality An.
nounced by the Administration.

The great present and pressing question
of American pofiics is, whether negro
slaves have the same rights in the Terrific
ries of the Union as the white men of the
country. By the decision of 30 other ques-
ton can the interests of the white races be
so much affected as by the decision of this
question. Shall they have the exclusive
occupation of the million and half of
square miles embraced In the Territories of
the Union, or shall they be excluded, in
whole or in part, by the African ?
1t is with regret that we find the Admin
istration, in this vital particular, throwing
its whole weight upon the side of negro
equality. This movement is masked, to be
sure, by the more pleasing phrase, estate
equality" but the pill is none the less bit
ter because coated with sugar. It is none
the less "negro equality" which Mfr. Bu-
chanan supports, because he sees fit to call
it Estate eqality.''
What the Administration maintains in
words. is the equal right of the States to the
Territories. But the political corporations
have no rights in the Territories. The
States, as such, cannot move to the Terrific
ries and occupy them. The States. as such,
own move slaves. What is meant by estate
equality is the right OF the slaVeholdIng
citizens, who are only small portion of the
slaveholding States, to occupy the Terrific
ries with their slaves. The equality con-
tended for is not the equal right of States,
but the equal right of peculiar class of
persons holding a very peculiar species of
property. Sifted to the bottom, the asser-
tion of Estate equality" as intended by
Mr.. Buchanan, is the assertion that our
Territories are as fully open to negro slaves
as they are to white men. In other words.
it is the assertion, in respect to vital mat
ter, and bearing upon the precise point at
which the development of one race comes in
collision with the development of the other,
of the doctrine of ''negro equality
This doctrine of the Administration we
feel bound to oppose. The Territories of
the Union were not acquired by the blood
or treasure of negro slaves, and to put them
upon an equality of right, in respect to the
occupation of the Territory, is to do the
greatest possible wrong and injury to the
white men of the country, whether living at
the North or at the South. It is senegro
equality" in the worst imaginable form,
and no honeyed subterfuge of Estate equal
ity" can make it anything else-- flashing

[ w DENVER
J. w. DENVER.
Secretary and Acting Governor.
December 81, 1857.
Secretary cass Exposes Himself.


Secretary Cass has recently seen proper
to deliver himself of the opinion that 'sthere
is no law in the United States to prevent a
citizen, in the exercise of the right of expa-
triation, from going, either armed or un-
armed, to foreign country" This decla-
ration has very naturally created some SEN
sation at Washington, and excited no little
ill-feeling among the foreign diplomats
The Washington correspondent of the New
York Times remarks most pertinently upon
the opinion of the Secretary as follows: eff
one citizen can thus expatriate himself, a
dozen, hundred, thousand, or ten thou
sand. can do the same thing. And if a man
may take his arms in his hands, there is no
reason why he may not take mountain
howitzer on his shoulders. The enumera
ton of such doctrine, at this time, is con-
sidered nothing less than a proclamation Of
the United States Government that Walker
may make war on Central America when
ever he shall see fit, or can get the means to
do so, with perfect impunity. 1t is looked
upon as an official reiteration of Gen. Cass'
letter to the New York meeting, while he
was in the Senate, of sympathy in the cause
of Walker and fillibusterism. In view of
this opinion, the instructions to the several
United States Marshals to prevent any in
fraction of the Neutrality Laws as also
the instructions to the commander of the
John Adams in Potomac Bay to do the same
thing, are regarded as gross hypocrisy on
the part of the Cabinet at Washington. ~
