1t was reported in Washington, on the most
reliable authority, that the British Government
have had an overland route surveyed from their
possessions in the Rocky Mountains to certain
point in Canada, by which they will be able to con-
struct railroad over their own territory on this
continent, uniting the Pacific with the Atlantic.
The proposed route is much shorter than that Of
Of our Government; and as the British Govern
ment stands ready to secure a certain fixed
rate Of interest to all who may choose to invest
in this great enterprise, its feasibility is beyond
doubt have this information from the highest

The Topeka Constitution.

The n. Y. Times, in our opinion, has
generally taken very sensible view of
our Kansas troubles. Occasionally it gets
off the track, but it soon rights itself
again. 1t has opposed further action un-
der the Topeka Constitution, for the best
reason in the world-impracticability. We
copy the following from late issue -
"The Free State men in Kansas, seem
to be acting quite as absurdly as possible,
and even more foolishly than could reason
ably have been expected under such cir
cumstances. Instead of taking ground upon
the broad principle of popular sovereignty,
in which they would have been Joined
by the great body of the Democrats of
Kansas, and sustained by the Democracy
of the whole country, they have rallied
on the narrow and efete Topeka platform.
They take special pains to repel the sup
port which they were likely to receive
from beyond the limits of their own party.
The whole Topeka movement was illegal
and revolutionary. It lacked even the
technical show of law which gives a quasi
validity to the Lecompton movement
1t is a thing of the past-as dead as the
Dorr rebellion-and has long ago been
abandoned by all who care more for the
principle and the good Of Kansas than for
their own partizan objects and their own
personal aggrandizement."
Now we protest against this charge
against the "Free State men" as SUCH
The Topeka Constitution is as dead in
Kansas as it is out of it. a movement
was made week ago, to get charter
from the Territorial Legislature, and al
los0 the latter to make la,os for the government
| of the Territory. 1t was movement
worthy of half grown boys, but unworthy
of practical men. The idea was simply
ridiculous, and was generally treated as
such. Here we have legal Legislature,
a government de tacto, recognized as such
/ by Congress and the President, but these
mad-caps desired Us to surrender all we
had gained in October. by that election,
and precipitate ourselves into difficulties
anew, by setting upa revolutionary gov
eminent
The movement was foiled by timely
action, and the matter has been put at
rest for the present.

County SeaA

A friend writes US complaining of the
location of the county seat of Coffey coun-
ty at Leroy, elaiming.that the place is not
geographically central, nor the center of
population. He states that Hampden
is nearer the center Of the county than any
other place, and that is very desirable
point for the county seat. 1t is favored
with dense population around the town;
has steam saw mill, and various public
and private Improvements, and is behind
no other location in the county in any
thing which goes to make town, save
gas. Among other Improvements is a
school house, and school is in operation.
The Jefferson City, Hampden and En-
poria railroad, he speaks Of. IS fixed
fact, since the charter to the same has
been granted by the Missouri Legislature.
We choose to take no part, nor express
no choice in regard to the local questions
of county, as our mission IS charged
with matters of graver importance than
those merely relating to county seats.
We have always entertained very IA
vorable opinion Of Leroy, and the people
in it. And now we are disposed to give
them great credit for tact, If they have
succeeded in getting the county seat To-
Gated in the @oorner of the county around
which the balance of the county is COM
PEELED TO reyolve," IS our correspondent
very fslic;tously expresses il.

The slotbs Responsible.

Mr.. Pugh, from Ohio, has introduced a
bill in the Senate for the immediate ad-
mission of Kansas into the Union under
the Lecompton Constitution, and proyid-
ing that the Legislature Of the State may
make provision for submitting vote on
the slavery clause again to the people. It
is believed that this bill, or that of Mr..
Stephens, of Georgia, viii become the
law. Indeed nearly all our friends writ
ing us from Washington say there is but
little doubt of the result, that our admis-
sion into the Union under the Lecompton
Constitution has become a fixed fact !;
that the result is almost as certain as if
we were now within the Union. IfKan-
sas does come into the Union in this
manner, and it is made Slave State, as
consequence, the Sloths and the dogs-in-
the-manger who would not vote, nor let
their friends vote, shall bear the censure.

Murder Trial,

An examination has been going on
before E. D. LADD, Esq, during the
last week, relative to the death Of
Mr.. CANFIELD, of this city, some two
weeks ago. Dir. C. exhibited, during his
sickness all the symptoms of having been
poisoned. A post-mortem examination
confirmed the impression, and though a
thorough analysis of the stomach has not
yet taken place, yet the physicians are of
the opinion that his death was occasioned
by arsenic. Mrs. CASFIELD, the widow
of the deceased, is suspicioned Of having
administered the fatal potion, whether
Justly or otherwise we shall not under
take to decide; but it must be conceded
that the interest increases ss the inyesti-
CATION progresses, and fears are entertained
by many that the deceased has been foul

Munchauseua

The st. Louis Democrat keeps little
ahead of the facts always. In late is
sue it had an account of collision with
the q. S. troops at Fort Scott, and the
killing of three dragons by Lanes men,
who were being reinforced $500 strong
determined to resist the Federal authority.
The Democrat was a little ahead of its
own correspondents in this case. We
copy;
"0ne of the gentlemen who passed
through Lawrence on Friday saw General
Lane and Gov. Robinson in that town.
They ,oere mounted and completely armed,
and appeared much e1cited. They were
addressing the people, who surrounded
them in large numbers, and urging them
to maintain their rights and succor their
friends. The people of Lawrence were
preparing to take thefeld. John Calhoun
had fed from the Territory, and reported
himself as going to Springfield, Illinois,"
That is all news up in this region, but
it is stale in the East, having been re-
peated so frequently. So We go. East
ein readers, who desire to know the facts
from Kansas prefer such statements,
through Eastern journals, to the truth
through reliable Kansas paper. Were
ace to publish such statements as the
above everybody would say that there
was no reliance to be placed in our paper.
Should we depart from the truth, and fill
our columns with Nunchausens like the
above, the paper would retain a wide
circulation abroad, but would be despised
at home.
The Kansas herald of freedom., 1858-01-16
No. Sold Ont,

During the last week we have had an
offer for the purchase of the Herald of
Freedom establishment, and the terms we
had fixed were all complied with. We
stated distinctly we would not part with
theoffice until we had consulted with our
friends, and if they were seriously OPP
posed to the sale, we should hold on to it;
that we only objected to passing the
Office into the hands of those who had
sustained the do-nothing policy in the
past. We consulted our frierds, and on
no condition would they consent to the
change. The Herald Of Freedom had done
good service for the cause-it must be
sustained, and those who preferred truth
to falsehood would sustain it. We were
importuned to continue at the helm until
Kansas was "out of the woods" It was
not one only, but many took this position.
Though anxious to retire from the tur-
moil of politics and public life, we pledg-
ed ourself anew, refused the offer, and
shall struggle on to the end.
Mr.. Ross, who proposed to buy the es-
Enlistment, we recognize as warm per-
sonal friend. We have been acquainted
with him since his first arrival in the Ter
ritory, and have only known him to re-
spect him. He takes different view,
however, from what we do, of Kansas
matters. His hopes of making Kansas
a Free State seems centered in the Tope-
ka Constitution. He was averse to en-
gaging in the October election, and only
entered into the movement after it was
adopted as party measure. He was also
opposed to voting on the 4th of January,
and continued to oppose it down to the
time of the election, and still opposes the
movement. Our subscribers, without an
exception, as far as we know, took the op-
posite position. as did all the friends of
our paper. It would be wrong, then, to
pass the Office into the hands of those
who would censure the action of our
friends in the past, who would advise
them in a wrong direction; and hence
our willingness. though against our con-
victions of duty to ourself, to continue
our labOrs at our post, though at the sac
rifee of cur health.

Fous Soon.

In June last, there was not q Free State
resident In the town Of Fort Scott. 1t
was one of the strong holds of the pro-
slavery party in the south part of the
Territory. and the retreat of the southern
guerrilla parties which levied black mail
upon the Free State settlers in that re-
gion. On the 4th inst, at this precinct,
there were ni,ety-nine votes polled against
the Lecompton Constitution, and upwards
of sixty for the Anti Usurpation State
ticket. A very credible change, fer seven
months. A majority of the town prop
erty is in the hands of Free State men,
among whom are Messrs. LowxAs. REIN

sr..uas ia L...suwor.h County.


Leavenworth county was reported to
have gone pro-slavery at the election on
the 4th, owing to gross frauds at Kicka-
poo. Delaware, and Delaware Crossing.
at the former place near thousand bal
lots were polled, many persons giving as
many as six votes. The proof of this
statement is patent, as we have it from
persons who were on the ground, and
making notes at the time.
At Delaware the same game was prac-
ticed with similar success, but with over
/ coo manufactured votes for these two
precincts, they had not enough to balance
the heavy Anti Usurpation vote cast at
Leavenworth city, Easton, Alexandra
and Wyandott. To remedy this, the re-
turns from Delaware Crossing showed
500 pro-slayery votes polled at that pre-
cinct. AS it was well known that there
were not to exceed thirty or forty votes
in that locality, a warrant was taken out
for one of the judges, under the late act
of the Territorial Legislature. he was
brought up, and examined in regard to it.
He stated on oath that when the polls
were closed at that precinct, but thirty nine
uotes had been given; that j. D. Hender-
SON. late of the Leavenworth Jou,ral, was
on the ground and said he would take the
returns to Lecompton, consequently they
were placed in his hands, properly made
out and certified to, with only SO names
appearing as having voted. 1t was made
further to appear that Henderson had
made statements in Leavenworth, show
ing that there were 500 votes given al
the Delaware Crossing precinct for the pro-
slavery ticket, by which that county was
given to that party.
A warrant was issued for the arrest oi
Henderson. He was found on board the
stage, making his way to Washington
was arrested, and brought to Lawrence
for legal examination before Judge Miller
As friend was leaving Lawrence, or
Wednesday to be present at the counting
of the returns, Jack Henderson followed
him little distance, partly one side and
said 80" Tell Calhoun for Gods sake, not
to count the returns from Delaware Gross
ing, nor pay any attention to them what
ever, and 1 will explain fully to him al
another time" jack saw the scull and
cross bones, and trembled as he thought
Felix like, of the Judgment so near al
hand. He did well, and it is possible his
friend Calhoun has saved him. The vote
was not counted, and Leayenworth county
was given to those who had elected theil
ticket-the nti-Usurpers,"-to whom
certificates of election will be issued.

this vote, to wit. 3,012, was returned frl

where there were not to exceed 500 lei
voters. All of those who recorded thg
votes for the Constitution without slsr

On the 4th of January, there were po
