When there first came news
of lynching, shooting, scalping, arson,
fraud and plumber committed by the Pro-
Slavery men in Kansas, the newspapers
and orators of the Democracy denoun-
ced it as pack of ''Black Republican
lies" got up to influence elections. They
continue to this day to stoutly ever that
lit is the Free State emigrants who make
all the trouble, the Pro-Slavery folks
being as peaceable and well disposed as
need be. But if any 'sBlack Republi-
can" has given worse account ofthem
than the Democratic Administrations
own officials do, we have yet to see it.
| Col Delahay, who was the editor ofthe
Administration organ, declares they
mobbed him and destroyed his printing
Office. Gov. Reeder, who was Blu
chanan Democrat, relates that they as
saulted him anddrove him from the Ter
ritory. Gov. Shannon, the most plant
of Ohio Pro-Slayery men, admits that
they compelled his participation in out
RACES thai even he revolted a., aud f.
nally hustled him home, with threats
and violence. And now Gov. Geary.
their third Democratic Governor-iust
returned from the Territory, and glad to
escape with his life, relates how they
plotted his assassination, and says the
half of their atrocities have not been
told. Do these gent emen, all Demo
cratic ofiiceholders under the late Adj
ministration, also tell "Black Republi-
can lies" about Kansasf How is it.

ANOTHER TRAGEpY.-We learn the
details of terrible tragedy which took
| place on Sunday, Sth INST, ut Nelson's
Landing, Wis, some twenty miles below
Lake City While two men were en-
gagged IN towing a batteaux through the
open channel, the men walking on the
strip OF ice next the Wisconsin shore.
with the rope, and one man in the boat
steering it, they saw three Sioux Indians
approaching; one ofwhom ran ahead OF
the others and called To the boatmen to
stop. They did SO, and the Indian rails
ed his rife loaded with buck shot. took
deliberate aim and fired. Both the tow
ers fell, MORALLY wounded. The other
Indians ran up to the one who fired, who
was coolly reloading, seized his gun and
broke it in peices, and with the help Of
the man who was steering the boat, sue
ceeded i'll binding him, when one of the
Indians ran To the boarding house and
gave the alarm. A number were soon
gathered around the murderer, andzaf-
ter brief examination, they hung him
in u few hours. He begged to be shot.
One of the men wounded died on Tues
day, and our last intelligence said the
other was dying.-Lake Cay (.Nia.)

Judicial Election.

We hope that the voters of Kenosha County
will not forget that the present Spring election
is of more than usual Importance. We have a
Chief Justice of the Supreme Court TO elect and
it is almost unnecessary to say, that it is at the
present time, more than ever important, that a
man possessing, in addition to all the qualifica-
tions requisite for that high station, those prin.
ciplas of Freedom for which we are contendng.
The National Supreme Court has given, in the
late decision Of majority of its Judges, de-
cision. not only in favor of Slavery, and against
Freedom, but one directly conflicting with the
doctrine of States rights. Citizens of any 9th
State, according to this decision, may come iato
our borders and bring their own laws and insti-
buttons with them, and we have no way of meet.
ing this monstrous doctrine but to elect to orr
judicial and executive offices the right kind of
men, and standing upon our reserved rights.
Our constitution and our laws say that slavery
nor involuntary servitude shall exist within our
borders, but majority Of the o. S. Supreme
Judges say that Mr. A. and Mr.. b. may bring
their slaves here from South Carolina and hold
them for any length of time. Our laws forbid
and punish bigmay, but under the decision of
these same Judges. Brigham Young may bring
his fifty wives and establish his harem in Keno
sha. and if we modest him. he may call the whole
force of the United States Government 10 pro-
tect him. This is the doctrine we now have TO
combat. And the men who will oppose and
vote against Judge Wilton approve and uphold
this doctrine. Already the so-called democratic

&c doctrine, and nor to be questioned. Can the
Freedom loving Freemen Of Wisconsin subscribe
t. il and chronicle their approval of it, by voting
for, or neglecting to vote against it7 We be-
leEo not. Then vote for EDWARD v WILTON.
on Tuesday next
county Judge is also to be elected. This,
though not as directly important, polite ally, as
the election OF Chief Justice still il W IL have its

How THE DRIED ScoTT CASE ards
forced into Z. S. Supreme Coo~t.-The
Washington correspondent Of the New

bred Scott case:
Mr.. Sanford never willingly consented
to the appeal ofthis cause from the Mis-
souri, Courts, and he did not wish to
contest it. 1t was his desire and inten-
ton to emancipate the whole family as
soon as he could make the proper ar
rangements to do so, and remove them
from the State of Missouri. He be!iev-
ed they were fully entitled to their free
dom. | am assured by one of Mr.. San
ford's relatives that he only consented
to place himself in the attitude of de-
PENDANT after enduring an amount of i'm
portmity, badgering and worrying from
persons having no other than political
interest in the case, which it was not in
the strength Of his nature to resist: and
the result Of the persecution to which
lie has been subjected IS, that he lost his
reason, and is now the inmate of mad
house. So notorious was it nearly n
year ago that this was prepared in or
der to foist spurious political issue up
on the Court, for the benefit of the par
ty of slavery extension, that a high Off
Ger in the law department Of the gov
eminent, in duty bound to concur in its
whole policy, admitted to me that it had
that appearance and that he expected
the Court would throw it out upon that
ground.

tAt!l tiShOlo PIilibCd ia ScttoNH'

. Robert J. Walker, of Mississippi,
has been appointed Governor of Kansas,
in place of Geary, and has accepted the
appointment. tits said, and we suppose
is true, that he is clothed with despotic
powers to enforce his instructions, those
instructions being to enforce thelaws and
maintain quiet, the whole power of the
government being pledged to his aid.
The query very naturally arises, why
the government could not do as much
to aid Geary as it promises for Walker:
To this query we can find no other an
swer than the difference in the character
of the men. When Geary was appoin-
ted, he was promised the government
aid to his efforts. But he, apparently
misunderstood the real purpose of his
being sent, and attempted to establish
and enforce impartial justice among and
between all classes of citizens, without
regard to their political associations.
Under such circumstances he got no aid
from Pierce. Hoping for better things
from Buchanan he gave him his resigna-
ton unless he could have the promised
government aid to enforce justice. But
Buchanan did not want Geary's impair
tial administration of justice any more
than Pierce did. The aid was not gran
ted--the resignation was accepted.
Il. J. Walker is not a very different
man probably, in his views and feelings
ON the slavery question, from Atchison
or Strinrfellow. He VIII establish Just
such justice and conquer just such a
peace rs the ultra-slayery propagandists
desire. This is why he supercedes Gea-
r. and why he is clothed with despotic
powers and authorized to call the army
and navy to his aid. 1t is plain, open
unqualified attempt to subvert Kansas to
slavery, and with every prospect of sue
cess. The bogus pro-slavery legislature
which has just adjourned has made ar
rauccinents for calling convention to
form state constitution, in the election
Of delegates to which, the free state men
have resolved not toparticipate. Itwin
make apro-slavery constitution which il
viii not submit to the people of the ter
ritory, and under which Congress will
admit the territory into the union with
out question, and she will thereafter be
8 slave state.
Buchanan thus far indicates himSelfto|
be completely under the same malign IN
fluences which controlled Pierce, and all
that the republicans prophesied or fear
ed from lis success viii be realized Had
Fremont been elected Kansas would
have been free. \ majority of the peo-
pie have deliberately decreed that she
shall be enslayed and she win be. No |
thing short of revolution can alter her
fate, which remedy, we are not sure but
would be The lesser evil of the two.
