Washington.

The highly gratifying news from Washington
which We published yesterday, to wit: that in q
Cabinet council on Monday last upon Kansas az
fairs il was resolved to stand by Governor Walk
or, viii contribute immensely to enlarge the
confidence Of the country in the justice, stcadi-
Re- and stability Of Mr.. Buchanan's administra-
ton.
How stands the case: The late local Legisa-
ture of Kansas passed certain laws providing fer
the election OF convention 10 form a State con-
stitution. When Governor Walker arrived in
Kansas he found those proceedings, de facto, the
laws Of the Territory. But he also found the
free State party in an organized attitude Of arm
cd neutrality against these enactments aud all
others emanating from the same legislative body
He coon learned from the free State men that
they would have nothing TO do with any of these
local laws inasmuch or they were held to be the
spurious proceedings Of spurious Legislature
the creature, not Of the people Of Kansas, but Of
the Missouri border ruflans. Under the very
nose Of the Governor, accordingly, the free state
party called together Legislature Of their own,
and State convention, at which Il was resolve
TO stand by the Topeka free State constitution
and to carry it up to Congress as the legitimate
basis for the admission of Kansas into the Union.
But the most important discovery made by the
new Governor, in this connection, was the palpa.
bic, impressive aud overwhelming popular as
tendency Of the free State over the pro-slsvcry
sttters in Kansas lie foresaw, from this as
tendency. that in the event Of another border
war the local pro-slsvcry party would suffer the
most disastrous reverses, and that the consc-
qucnces would most likely be perilous sectional
excitement throughout the Union. He also dis.
covered that, from the land specializing malta

TIE TRIBUNE on THE NEW Police Law
We publish elsewhere. and desire TO direct
attention to a very fair article from the New
York Tribune, berating the late Lieutenant Go
vernon Of this State for his support Of the new
Police law. AT the time the article WIS written,
that law was still project; but its leading fea-
lures were well defined; and the judgment formed
upon il by the Tribune was based on an accurate
conception Of its provisions 1t has since been
passed by the Legislature without material
alteration; has been declared constitutional by
the Court Of Appeals; and has gone into actuil
effect in the city, after struggle on the part Of
the civic authorities uncxamplcd in our municipal
history.
One of the most marked features of that
struggle has been the ferocious and almost ruf-
family abuse which the leading organs Of the
Albany olgarchy have lavishcd upon all oppo-
ncnts Of the bill. II must be consolatory TO them
10 perceive that, little over two years ago the
chief among these organs, namely, the Tr,Junc, 50
far conceded with the present views Of the Mayor
and municipal authorities in their late stand
against the law as 10 denounce IL a. a mere
ecncmc 10 " adu 10 tnc DurucnS OF tnls Official

ton which renders our municipal administration
unwieldly to provcrb." They will be pleased
10 see that at that period when, it may be re-
marked, the likelihood Of the TriJme's friends
becoming Commissioners was small-that journal
expected no benefit" from new Boards of Com
missioners and objected TO arrcsting the process
of Improvement 60 happily begun by the pre-
sent tlstel Commissioners" The Mayors
friends may likewise derive comfort from the fact
that the Tribune once thought II would bea dcplo-
rablc error to diminish the power the Mayor excr-
cises over the police, az this bill 1.-THE present
Metropolitan Police act is designed 10 do"
and that to curta that power would be to d.

VERY IMPORTANT FROM KANsAs-GENERAL
WALKER SUSTAINED BY THE TERRITORIAL DE-
MoCRACY.-Our readers are aware that since the
inauguration Of Mr. Buchanan the Kansas border
ruffian pro-slavery party of poor Pierce has been
superseded by democratic party resting upon
the national principles of the democratic party
Of the Union. This party have just held their
Territorial Convention for the nomination Of
their candidate for Congress; and as an evil
dence Of the way the democratic wind is blow
ing in that quarter, the said convention substan
TALLY resolved, by vote OF forty to one that
the State constitution which the approaching
Constitutional Convention is expected to adopt
(pro-savery) will not be considered valid in-
strument until it shall have received the ratifca
ton of a popular vote. (See our news from Kan
sas under the Geographic head) This looks very
much like hearty approval by the Kansas de-
mocracy of the course OF Gov. Walker, and very
much like sign Of the course that may be an-
tcipated from the approaching Constitutional
Convention.
We perceive, also, that the Kansas democracy
have declined, for the present, our old-time fell

mated Ex-Governor Ransom, of Michigan
a constitutional administration man, no
doubt, slavery or no slavery. This is another
striking illustration CT the downfall of Pierce s
border ruffian policy, and the supremacy of law
and order in Ksnsas or else some such fire eater
as DR.. Stringfellow would have been nominated.
We are somewhat sorry that the Hon. Ely Moore
failed of nomination; but he will probably have
better luck next time, and there is come comfort
in that. The al-important fact for the PRESENTS
the almost unanimous approval of the policy Of
Governor Walker by the democratic party of
Kansas; and this fact we commend to the special
digestion of our Southern secession brethren, who
are moving heaven and earth to compass the re-
call of Walker. If the Kansas democracy are sa-
tisfied with him, what right have the Georgia de-
nocracy to flare up, or the Mississippi democra-
cy, or any other democracy. That's the ques
tion

electors Of the city, would be rejected By an over
whelming majority"
We do not think this is the strongest case
that could be or has been made out against the
presest Metropolitan Police act; but We think it
is very fair case, and worthy Of attention. We
desire to recommend to the editors of the Tribune
if not regular perusal of their own columns
that perhaps would be asking too much of any
person of taste and sehsibllity-at least an ocoa-
sional reference to the files of the sheet which
they produce. Such researches will not
always be adequately rewarded; but every now
and then they will yield decent profit. In this
instance they might have saved our contemporary
unnecessary humiliation and exposure. To the
public at large, such little accidents as this are of
no consequence, save as illustrations Of the old
prOverb about the goring Of the OK.

Mr.. Robert B. Warden, "stage strttck" gen.
tleman who was appointed Supreme Judge by
Gov Melill, and who was nominated to fill the
same vacancy after several ballots, through COM
plilnent more than merit and against the urgent
remonstrance of every well re ad lawyer in that
convention, january 8, 1860 and who ran
considerably behind his ticket that fall, comes
out in last Saturday evenings Ohio Stqte Jo,v-
nal, the leading organ Of black republcanism
in Ohio, with long windy abolition disunion
letter against the late Democratic State Conven-
ton, because it endorsed the bred Scott decs-
ion. 1t is well known that Robert thinks that
he knows more than the Supreme Court does;
and more than the whole Democratic party OF
Ohio; and it is still better for the Democratic
party that he has found in the black republican
party party more congenial to his abolition
disunion principles. The Democratic party is
rather too national for such gentlemen as Mr..
Robert B. Warden! 1t is to be hoped that he
will meet with his most ardent desire Office
and expectations with his new Know Nothing

highest terms Of the nominees, and show that
the nominations are well received everywhere.

The Republican On the NsggCT
Question.

Our neighbor of the Republican pretends that
he can't go the abolition plank of the fusion
platform. Indeed he makes feeble effort to
deny it in toto, and estimates that the black re-
publican party cares nothing about niggers ex-
cept to keep them out of the territories. That
kind of twaddle will do for Dick to humbug his
readers with, but every sensible person knows
that the great ruling sentiment Of the black re-
publican party is abolitionism and negro equal
ity. The ultra abolition element Of the coun-
try is the life and soul of the republican party.
If not, why does the black republican o. S.
journal come out and boldly declare that
ly~''so far as the right Of suffrage, or any other
right of citizenship is concerned, he (the negro,
should be placed on an equality with the rest
of mankind!"-E0 Why is it that the 0. s
journal takes this bold ground? Or why is il
Dick that your black republican governor
Bashford of Wisconsin, appointed the negro
N. Holan, to office? Such evidences agains
your party on this question are as ''thick a
leaves in autumn" and you insult the inteli
gence Of the people by your denial.
