GOV. GEARY'S POSIrIoN-PROSPECr OF
KANSAS.

From Special Correspondent
WASHINGTON, March "a, 1857.
Gov. Geary is here. He looks baggard and care
worn. Exposure and fatigue, coupled with many NOR.
flying embanassmeDts tn 'ownu upon him by the late
fathlets Administration, have excited an anxious de-
sire for the sweets Of retirement and peace.
He feels that he has discharged the trust Of patriot
Upon his breast he lay his hand and looking up to
the Searcber say, Thou knowest that have striven
with clean hands and honest purpose TO deal on.
"equal and exact justice"
Gov. Geary returns from Kansas thoroughly cured
of that political opthalmia which even yet blinds so
large portion of the North. VIII The Journal Of
Commerce--xill The Commercial Adrersiser-will the
oldlre Democrats and the Silver Gre,s noe beieve
that there is anything the matter in Kauses 7
Gov. Geary says that the people-that s the actual
settlers of Kansasare the easiest governed people in
the world; that the intelligence Of It's aud tne re-
fnemept of its won not surpassed by those o.
any portion of our country that the people desire
peace and quiet loving order and obeyng law; that
the desoatons and outrages thee committed cannot be
exaggerated and have not half been told.
No man viii pretend that this testimony Of the ex-
Governor is now made public for political effect
Whist then, does it mean What mean the successive
designations and removals of Me Governors of Kansas
1t has never happened in any ether Tern.ory. Why
should this be an exception
The actual settlers are orderloving and quiet. Who,
then are they that disturb the peace Way has not
the Governor power to crush them Why the Gov.
ernors life in danger Whse do these bold sg;tators
and oon.phators get their amazing power, overriding
