We have repeatedly had occasion to caution the
public sgaIDs; the general telegraphic dispatches
which reach us from St. Louis with respect 10
deye Opu ents in Kansas. Our special dispatches
We believe msy be relied on as at least intended 70
be fair and accurate, but those forwarded 70 the
Associated Pres, often betray traces OF sinister
Dhcelce. Thus the one published On tbe 24th inst
pr,fessir to give summary of the resolves OF the
Fee S ate Convention held at Topeka on the 10th,
ll,h and 10Th inst. wound up IS follows;
Ana finally, that they are iose1ibly determined to
sbide by tie principles of Equality and sius,ter
Soversienty as enuaeiated in The Kansas Nebra,ka
blH."
We felt morally certain that this was misrepre.
,estatioD, but we published il as it reached u.s. and
IL has gone ali over the country ia this shape, hailed
BY tie Dougssites with shout Of triumph a. a
declaration OF the FreeState men Of Kansas in favor
ofthe Douglas doctrine Of "Squs.ter Sovereignty.
Yet whoever viii Io,k through the proceedings and
resolves Of that Convention, - published 10 our last,
viii see that this ia sheer misststement Here i,

We referred yesterday to memorial which has
been sent to Abany-though not yet, as we under
stsnd, presented to the ACCOMPLISHING that body
to give the sanction of their authority to certaa
ordinance illegally pas,ed by the Mayor and Com
mon Cour Gil of this City. The operation Of that
ordinance is to give 10 certain individuals great
extent Of land covered with water belonging partly
to the City but principally to the State, which these
favored individuals are authorized TO fiji in for their
own benefit, in total disregard Of the interests Of
commerce and the safe navigation Of the East River.
But our immaculate Common Council have not
been content with merely making this large gifs Of
other peoples property to the favored recipients Of
their bounty. They have gone still further, and
have passed another ordinance to buy back at an ex-
pense to the City of one hundred and ninety si1 to1s
and doilars portion of this very land a. site for
market house The Committee who recommend
this purchase thought the price asked exceedingly
reasonable; and certainly the seller was in aposi-
ton to sell at reasonable price, the land in ques-
ton having been made only the year before free
Gift to him from the same body, and we suppose,
too, from many Of the same individuals who now
propose to buy il back from him with the City's
money.
The memorial, then, Of the Mayor, Aldermen and
Commonaty of the City Of New-York, to which
we have referred, and the bill Of confirmation an.
nexed to it, and which the Legislature 10 ssked-or
will be asked, if the memorial should be presented
to pass proposes to kill two birds with one stone,
or rather so far as one of the favored recipients OF
civic bounty is concerned, to confer upon him
double favor-sincc the effect Of this act will be
not only to confirm him in possession Of property
grstuitously bestOSed upon him BY the flling-up
ordinance, but also to put him in Q position to
make good title to the City, and 80 to pocket,
under the purcasing ordinance not merely land
under water but some t~o hundred thousand dol
lars of the City's money. A job ike this will, We
hope Lot be suffered to be carried out. So far,
indeed, from passiog an act to confirm the gifs or
dinsnce referred to, the Legislature might do well
to pass al act declaring It's inegaliy aud providing
striI gent remedies against any further filling ia

The nomination of DAVID WLMOT for Governor
of Pennsyl vania is bold step on tho part Of the
Republicans; and we trust this is ono Of tho au
merous instances wherein courage II the truest
prudence. Mr.. WilmOts name is landmark in
the history of our age. 1t was be who in 1915
moved in the House the famous Pfoviso that tho
blood and treasure Of the American People should
not be poured out to add 10 the Slave Territory Of
his Republic. II was he who in lS4S led in Penn
.ylvaDia the Democratic revolt under the standard
Of Van Buren, and Free Soil. His speeches for Free
Labor and Fremont were among the most cogeat
and effective Of the macy good ones which
irYadsted the late Presidential canvass. An cor.
pest and tenacious Democrat he did not hesitate 10
renounce the party organization to which be VA
devoted when he found its further support hreooa.
ciIable with bis allegiance to vital Democratic pra.
oipe. Mr.. Wilmot ought to be next Governor Of
Pennsylvania, and his election would redaund y
her enduring honor. II would show that the il,
dgnites hesped on Reeder and on Geary BY tho
Slave Power are not unresen ted-thst she n not
unmindful of her sons who have been subjected b
outrage and spolAton in Kansas for merely seehia.

WJmot to the Governorship Of Pennsy lvanis would
be the proper response Of the Free States to th'
atrocous bred Scott decision. ~

There is an application before the Legislstsn hr
q grant of power to our Corporation to borrow
large sum of money wherewith 10 erect ono or nss
market.houses. In our Judgment this grant shOull
be sternly refused. Why our city shsuid provo
at public expense places for the sale and purchss'
of &C rtan products or kinds Of merchandise oaly,
not very clear; and we are tempted 10 inquire WY
the city should provide place for tho sale II Bex
and mono for that of Catle-why it should suP2H
houseroom to the dealers in Applss and meme b
those who traffic in Oranges, so. That our Psb-
lie Markets are to-day among the shsbbiest sai
least creditable structures within the business per-
ton of our city, aud evnce tho utmost contempt
for economy Of space as well a. symmetry Of
construction, we presume few will doubt. And 4
our Corporation would just sell every public mar.
ket we have and from the proceeds provide
one place for the wholesale exchange or sale
of perishable articles of food. We have
no doubt the whole community would be gamers By
the charge. Feur.ffhs Of our people have ceased
to visit or purchase from the public markets; and,
if there be any advantage arising from theis USE Il
is not right that the remaining fifth should be prof
tied at their expense. There should be one great
wholesale market readily accessible from the Va
ter and from our inland railroads; but We arc not
sure that even this would not provide itself Il the
Municipality would let markets alone, just - our
Cattle and Horse markets have done. Sevene'shths
of our present markets are only disturbances to the
regular and beneficial operation Of tho laws d
trade; Il they were sold out tomorrow, they wosh
be improved and kept as markets il wanted for that
use, and if not, the public wants would be supplies
in some chesper and better way. Let US hear 10
moro Of borrowing money to build now markets,
but rather of selling out those We now have, and
the application Of the proceeds to the payment Of
Our CITY debt.

There is no longer any doubt about the sqccesson
in Kansas. The Hon. Robert j. Walker of Misss.
sppi has accepted the Govemorship, and Frederick
P. Stanton, ex.M. C. from Tennessee, has been ap-
pointed Secretary; 30 that the fourth Governor Ct
Kansas is to be accompanied by the second S.cre-
taIy. 1t 10 well known, though not officially de-
clared, that MIR. Walker refused the difficult and
ihankless trust on any ether condition than that Of
unlimited discretion as to the means to be employed
in maintabirg order and peace ia Kansas,
and unhesisating support in the course
which he shall see fit to pursue. II he
6eems it necessary to have the Judges, or
some of them, removed, removed they must
be; if he smies on the Free-State men, his sGpe
riors must not flown; if he orders them annihi-
lated, annihilated they must be. 10 short Gov.
Walker addresses himself TO his task with pre-
cisely those facilities which Gov. Geary required,
and was promised but never received, and for want
Of which he resigned in despair. Had he been
bacAed as Gov. Walker is to be, hs would never
have resigned; on these conditions, he would have
returned to Kansas as Governor, even so late as
this week, and remained there to he end Why
have these conditions been denied to him bat &C.
