Nashville patriot. [volume] (Nashville, Tenn.) 1858-1860, 1858-06-02

E8- The Union and American concurs with
the PATRIOT in condemning the reckless ex-
travagance of the Federal Government: but
attributes the extraordinary expenditures of
the present and preceding administration. to
numerous unnecessary schemes projected by
that of Mr.. FILLMORE. Will our accommodate
ing Leighbors give US the facts and figures
from the record f-Patriot.
We would refer the Patriot for "facts and
figures" to Ton CoRwIN, Mr.. FILLMoRE's
abolition Secretary of the Treasury. Perhaps
Mr.. c. can make some disclosures with regard
to the GALPHIS and GARDNER frauds, by which
the treasury was plundered to the amount of
several millions, and in which the Honorable
TON was pretty largely implicated. If any
confirmation be required, our neighbor will
please consult ANDREW j. DoNELsoN, his late
candidate for the Vice Presidency.-Un Union &
american.
We did not ask for references; but for
the "facts and figures. We did it for the
benefit of the readers of the Union & american,
to whom that paper ought to make good its
statements. And while our neighbors are
engaged in compiling these statistics we would
ask them to verify the assertion that 'the
treasury was plundered to the amount of
several millions" by Galphin and Gardner
frauds. Seeing the proclivities of our neigh
bors, they will pardon us if we guard them
against diversion or evasion.

LANES SACRILEGE.
1t was to be expected that the secret rioter
should appear in public as a conservatOr of
the peace; it was in keeping with the charac-
ter or the man who once. in Indiana. as an
eminent citizen of that State a friend of his
who knew the fact, declared--went from
the bed of common brotbel where he had
passed the night, to Christian church in the
morning, and partook of the holy sacrament
OF the Lords Supper.
This is picture of the eight. the starr of
Kansas Anti-Leeomptonism, drawn by black
republican artist. A party which acknow-
lodges and follows such leader, must neces-
sa-ily be infamous. 1t cannot be otherwise.
Tt is no marvel, then, that it has obeyed only
the instincts of villainy, and is stained by the
blood-marks of murder and robbery. How
could such party be expected to recognize
the authority of law or any authority, which
stood as a barrier to its career of crime
How could it be expected that a constitution,
framed in pursuance of law, and providing
for the organization of state government,
undefiled by its touch, should meet its appro-
baton? The only wonder to us, about the
matter is, that any one should have sympathy
their opposition to the Lecompton Constitu-
ton.

The KANSAS BANDrrs.-A letter from the
black republican correspondent of the st.
Louis Democrat, from Kansas, opens with a
confession as follows:
PLANTERs HOTEL, I.EAvENwoRTH Cry,
May 18th, 1858.
Montgomery's mounted corps at Sugar Creek
are undoubtedly a small band of highwaymen
and we hope that no respectable New York
or st. Louis journal will undertake to apollo
gize for their petty rascalities.
This Montgomery is black republican
leader, and his band are of the same stripe.
Their virtue has been excessively outraged
by the formation of the Lecompton constitu-
ton, by authority of law. Indeed they are
violently opposed to anything that bears about
it the odOr of law.
