could not speak for any political party but
the first person singular. He believed that
the Free State party would be found bat
Ting for the rights of white men instead
of black, in 1860. We were the great last
in Republics. We must make
a change in 1860. If our Republic failed,
farewell to all Republics.
DR.. Robinson offered
d Free Press-The palladium of the
people. .
Responded to by j. c. Trask, of the
Herald of Freedom. The people should
support afree and independent press. The
press of Kansas had done its duty, he be-
lieved, and he hoped it would continue to
pursue free and independent course.
DR.. Robinson gave
The Free State physicians Of Eansas-
May their prescriptions keep the body
polite in good order.
This toast, intended to call out the
physicians present, brought up DR.. Prem
tiss. He did not practice much, and could
not speak well. He asked to be excused.
Mr.. Morrow, after some deliberation and
complete silence, ventured the following
sentiment, which brought down the house:
fheHsree great lights of Democracy-Can-
dle-box Calhoun, James Buchanan and
the Devil!
Mr.. Lyman Allen responded. He had
thought Buchanan and the Devil the fit
representatives of Democracy, long before
he heard of Calhoun. He was satisfied
that the sentiment was about right as 1t
related to the Democratic party.
The Marshal of the day, was given as the
next toast.
Capt. Cutler made an amendment: May
his shadow never be longer!'
Mr. Haskell was loudly called for, and
replied. He was not familiar with the
duties of either Marshal or speech-maker.
He was gratified with the reception Mr.
Parrot had received.
Mr.. Lowman offered
The Lecompton Constitution-Laid out in
Congress, and sent back to Kansas to be
buried
Mr. Deitzler responded, that he had
been appointed to take part in the funeral
ceremonies. and could not, of course, speak
to the sentiment.
Mr.. Haskell gave
The Merchants of Laurence.
Mr.. Hornsby could make no speech
The merchants would do their duty better
if the audience would call Oh them, a
their counters, cash in hand.
Mr.. 0tterson presented
TIE Ladies Of Laurence
No ladies being present, no one seemed
anxious to distinguish himself in theiI
behalf
The hour being late, motion was mad,
to adjourn, which was unanimously car
ried. The company separated, after few
interehanges of good feeling, and wen
home s1tisfed that "0ur Guestp had bee1
properly and deservedly honored, ant
gratifed with the general good manage
ment displayed in the arrangements.
OF 1t affords US much pleasure to an
nounce to our readers that we firmly be
lieye peace is restored to Southern Kan
sas. Since our last issue, we have con
versed with many of the citizens from tn,
surrounding country, and they all give u
very favorable reports. Some few hav,
endeavored to believe that the Missourian
would invade the Territory, and give tht
settlers trouble, but this is not so. Mis-
souri has expended money enough alreadl
in Kansas, and in our late difficulties ha
shown no disposition to interfere. He
Executive is an able officer, and while b,
will be prompt in seeing that the rights O
his people are protected, he also will b.
vigilant in seeing that they do not inter
fere with the rights of others. Many o
| the families driven out of the Territorl
have taken refuge in that State, and nov
that our troubles are at an end, viii doubt
less return; we trust they may, and assur
them they will be kindly received by a!
our aw-loving citizens. On Monday last
we met quite number of gentlemenfron
Marmaton and the Usage, and they al
seemed anxious that their old neighbor
should return to their claims, and express
! ed willingness TO protect them in thei
/ rights and let former differences of Grim
inal nature be adjudicated by the Gram
/ Jury and District Court that convene
early in August. If the majority of til
people are of this opinion, as we beliey
! they are, there is no excuse to apprehen'
| further trouble. We have rogues in ou
midst yet, who viii manufacture yariou
stories to get up feuds and broils, for n
other purpose than plunder. Let them b
watched vigilautly by the civil officers
and they viii soon depart, ard thei
number doubled by good, healthy emf
grafton, that will till the soil and gathe
from the earth its abundant fruits in re
ward for their labors. Too much prais
cannot be awarded Gov. Denver; he ha
acted promptly in onr behalf, on all oeca
sions, aud now that peace is iaally re
stored, let US place the credit to him, wheE
it righlfully belongs, and convince tn
agitators, both North and South, that 81
