SCARED OUT.-Our readers are all doubtless
aware of the warlille threats made by the Bu-
chanan Administration against England, in
consequence of number of our vessels having
been searched by the cruisers of the latter in
direct violation of the neutrality laws Mich
bluster was INDUCED in by the Democratic
press, and we were almost led to believe that
war was inevitable. In this, however, it now
seems, we were mistaken, for there can be no
longer any doubt that the Administration is
afraid of England, and that a roar or two from
the British lion is enough TO scare the wits out
OF the President. The outrages and insults
committed against our flag should be resented
promptly and efficiently, and if the President
and his advisers had any courage worth ma
ming they would do SO. OF late wears too
much timidity and cowardice has been mani
tested by our government officers. until the
American flag fails any longer to protect our
citizens in the pursuit of lawful occupations
IN foreign countries, and they are maltreated
and outraged with impunity.

The telegraph reports an affray at Lawrence
kins, based on disputed land claim, which
resulted in the death of the latter. The re-
ported victim is, we presume, George W.
| Jenkins, one of the founders of Lawrence.
and devoted Free-State man. We believe
he was one of the State officers first elected
under the Topeka Constitution. If such a
| collision has taken place, even without n fatal
result, it will probably finish the career of Gen.
Lane in Kansas, and deprive the allies of Bor-
! dcr-Ruffianism in the Free States of their
most serviceable cry. ssGen. Lane" was for
| merly ssDemocratic'' Lieut. Governor of In
diana, after having been in the Legislature of
that State and in the Mexican War-was elect
ed to Congress in 1852, and supported the Ne
| braska bill throughout. He went to Kansas a
Pro Slavery Democrat, but was converted by
the Missouri frauds of March 80, 1855, into a
Free-State man. He has since been active
and Jealous on the right side, and was chosen
U. S. Senator by the first Topeka Legisla-
ture. Kansas not being admitted, he was re-
fused seat, and returned to Kansas where he
has been conspicuous talker in favor of re-
sisting by force Border-Ruffian outrage and
rule. He was chosen Major G encral of Mill.
tia by the last Territorial Legislature, but has
not done any fighting in that capacity-at
least, none that we are aware of. He is quite
likely now to migrate to Arizona, if the Sher-
if should interpose no objection.
Later advices confirm the report that Lane
shot jenkins. The feeling against Lane was
general throughout the Territory, and there
was some talk of lynching him. He was in
close custody, and his trial will come off at an
early day, if ne is not mobbed sooner.

FIzzLD OUr--As stated last week, the OBJ
ject of the ssrevolutionists'' in New Orleans
was to defeat the American party and elect
the Democratic Mayor. On the 9TH the cleo
ton was held and resulted in the choice OF
Gerard Stith, the American candidate, by a.
bout 300 majority. The vigilance committee
movement was a regular fizzIe, and failed to
accomplish its desired purpose. This, saws
the Daily Ne,os, is the severest rebuke the
Administration has yet received. 1t comes
from quarter which makes it more keenly
felt than it would have been from any other.
In this contest the Loco Foco party had all
the advantage Of official influence and patro-
mage, in addition to the pride of Southern ul-
tras, and the antipathy of the large foreign
population of New Orleans. With all these
advantages on their side they dared not go
peaceably into the struggle, but resorted to
the desperate expedient of armed intimida-
tion. The result has shown that the energy
and determination of the Americans was more
than match for their opponents. The min
ions of power are defeated and dismayed
They have not the sympathy OF honest men,
nor the admiration of the brave to comfort
them in their disgrace.

DECIDEDLY CooL.-On last Thursday, Presi-

announcing that as Brigham Young had deliv.

decidedly cool, after having spent millions OF
dollars in filling the pockets of favorites by

WASHINGTON Cry ELECTIoN.-On Monday
of last week, the municipal election was held
in Washington city, and Col. James G. Berret,
Democrat, elected Mayor over Richard Wal
lach, American. The following dispatch to
the Philadelphia Journal shows how the cleo
tion was carried:
WASHINGTON, June S-The municipal elec-
tIon in this city, was attended with incidents
that are calculated to startle the country
There was rowdyism, of course that was ex-
pected, and the arrangements made to crush
the spirit of violence prevented any very Sc
rious outbreak. The disgracefuI features to
which / allude was the unbushing interference
of the Federal Government with the freedom
of suffrage. All the clerks in the various de-
partmentS, who were entitled to vote were
instructed to cast their votes for Mr.. Berret
the Administration candidate for Mayor and
it was clearly understood that refusal to COM
ply would be ground for dismissal from office
This outrageous and tyrannical dictation is
not a novelty in Washington. i recollect that
one of the most efficient clerks in the Treasury
Department, under the administrations of Tay-
lOr, Fillmore and Pierce, was compelled to re-
sign because he chose to vote against the
Democratic nominee at the election which
resulted in the success of Mr.. Magruder-
What kind of Democracy do you call this?
And this is called ssglorious victory of the
Buchanan party"
