The following statement by q citizen of high
character whose name will be given if required
copclusivey establishes the hypocrisy and knavery
of the pretense, upon which Mayor Wood is now
eegiDg on the rumselers of our City to resist and
defy the new Excise Law, hoping to make personal
and party capital out of their grievances and rebel
lion Hear what this man said when the Prohib-
tory Law was under consideration:
To the Editor Of The " J. Tribune
Allow me one word in reference to Mayor Woods
consistency in opposing the new Excise Law.
Well do | remember a conversation had with him
soon after the passage Of the Prohbtory Law of 1855,
and before it had been killed by the Courts.
lie objected TO that law az inexpedent unconstitu-
tional and impossible to be executed. He acknowl-
edged the dreadful evils of Inemperance, and thought
a law might be framed which would correct these
evils, and which would be perfectly unobjectionabe.
inquired what his plan would be- He said It
would be The License system modied-that is, licenses
shOrld be high 10 be out Of the reach Of The great
Of those formerly licensed that he would be for
fixing the price of license at something like FIVE
HUNDRED DoLLARs-and that this rouA cut off all
the lille rum-sh0ps throughout the city. In reply to
my ques- tion he said, such lac he could and roud
enforce.

views then with his views now. L.

BY the arrival of the Europa at Halifax we have
Liverpool dates to the 25th of April There is no
political news from Great Britain. The Neuf-
chate question seems to be approaching positive
settlement, the ENJOYS having agreed upon terms
and forwarded them 10 their Governments for rsti-
fcation. The news from Spain is not important.
The Ministerial crisis in Denmark has not been ar
ranged. nor is it likely soon to be. The Commits
sion to run the boundary between Russia and
Turkey will meet at Kars on the 18th
Of May From China we learn that
the Government contractors stOrehOuses at
Hong Kong had been burnt down. that British
steamer, sailing under Portuguese flag, had been
seized and carried off; that Chinese residents in
BOrneO, at Sarawak, had risen and msssacred the
European residents, Sir James Brooke saving his
life only by swimming across stream; that
Sir James subsequently took satisfaction by an
attack in which he killed two thousand
Chinese. The latest adyices represent that the
British force was rot employed moment too soon.
We have later adyices from the Persian Gulf, but
there has been no fighting since the affair Of
Bushire. Persian accounts say that battle lasted
four days and was finally stopped by the torrents
of rain. They say the British lost 200 men, the
Persians AGO. Robbery and violence are on the
increase among the Katfirs at the Cape Of Good
Hope.

A dispatch from st. Louis states that the Free
State men Of Kansas, through committee of the
citizens Of Lawrence, have made distinct propo-
slton to Secretary Stanton for the peaceful settle
mcnt of all the questions which now trouble that
embryo State. That proposition is in substance as
follows:
1.-TWO persona 'one from each party, selected in
each district will correct the regsryst, and proceed
together to register the legal voters The Probate
Judges will then correct the first list and the appor-
tonments being made according these returns four
Judges Of elections, two of each party, will be selected
for each precinct and the names of three Of said judges
will be required TO the certificates to enttle person
to a seat in the Convention"
This proposition, it is added, Secretary Stanton
has declned-Of course because the Pro Slavery
party who have entire control of the bogus census
and registration and who mean to hold the election
and count the votes without check or scrutiny, will
not consent to abate one scrupe Of their "pound
Of flesh They have at great expense Of effort
and wear Of conscience, got their machinery all
oiled for making Kansas Slave State, and they
will not forego their advantage. fair election
would prove their ruin, so they will none Of it.
And the Federal Administration, which, for the
honor of human nature must believe, would
gladly feel at liberty to take the side Of justice in
the premises, is constrained by ts obligations to
the Slave Power to back its minions in Kansas in
refusing the Free-State men that fair election 80
often promised them and which is all they ask.
TIE Free State men Of Kansas have now Wind
Gated their motives and COMPOUNDED the malice Of
their enemies If anarchy and civil war should en-
sue, History and Eternal Justice will place the
blame where it belongs. The issue is now so clear
that sOphstry cannot confuse, and falsehOed will i'll
vain misstate It, 1t is lamentable fact that
there is portion of the Press Of the Free States
base enough TO misrepresent and heap odium on
the Free-State men Of Kansas for simply insisting
that the election which is to decide their fate shall
be fair one-one in which either party shall have
guarantees ofequa and exact justice. But in an age
of general intelligence the right must finally prevail
Let the Free-State men simply stand on the mpreg-
uable ground they now occupy and give no shadow
of countenance to any such fraudulent sham election
as the Border Ruffsns are cOncOcting The civ
ilized world will applaud their conduct, and CRATE
full posterity haow their memories. And, should
the, be called to suffer anew for their principles,
they will not be left to suffer alone. If the cause
of Human Liberty needs more martyrs on the soil
of Kansas, all the Free States will eagerly con-
tribute them.

There was a strong disposition unaffected yes
tcrday at Bulls Head by the butchers to reduce
the price of beef cattle. They were successful
generally to the extent of about half cent pound.
First quality of bullocks still hold up to point
equal to twelve and half cents a pound for the
beef. One lot of Kentucky steers sold for $40
head. and several whole droves at over 800 each.
These are prices that ought to induce farmers to
raise more cattle, and make them equal to some Of
the fine animals that We have reported every week
this Spring.
