More Outrages by the Free State Ban
dlttf

Scarcely mail from Kansas has
come to our hands during the past few
weeks which has not contained an &C
count of some new murder, robbery or
outrage, pcrpetrated by that precious
band of "frecdom shrickcrs," Jim
Lanes free state militia. The last files
Of papers from St. Louis, only add to
the catalogue of lawlessness and out
rage. They are now, it appears pre-
pared to carry on a more extended
plan of operations in behalf Of the holy
cause of freedom and rcpublicanism,
The correspondent of the Republican
sfys: Asccrtaining that the payment
Of the annuitics to the Sac and Fox
Indians is about being made, they have
concerted plans to rob Mr.. Tymony,
the agent on his return from st. Louis
with the money. The agency is situa-
ted about seventy miles southwest of
Kansas City. The agent is expected
to disburse $4,000 to the Indians.
The banditti are concentrated on the
Usage river, about six miles southeast
of Minneola, near place called Dutch
Jake Crossing, within six mics Of the
Sac and Fox agency in the Ottawa
reserve. Not only is the money III
possession of the agent in danger, but,
should it be paid ont, it is not safe :;
and, indeed, it is feared that the traders
with the Indians will be robbed of their
goods, &c, before the return of the
agent from St. Lonis. So well satisti-
cd is the agent of the immediate dan
ger in which he stands, that he has de-
mandcd military escort from Gen.
Harvey, to conduct him and his treas
urc from Kansas City to the agency,
and to protect all parties while enga-
gcd in the distribution Of the annuity.
O Rcpublicanism, what crimes, will
not be committed in thy name

An IMPORTANT LEGAL DECISION IN TIE UNI.
TED STATES CIRcUIr Court - In the case OF
Sites and Romine vs. Richard Mathers, sher-
i'll. which occupied the attention of the Uni.
ted States Circuit Court for two days last
week, the jury returned q verdict for the
defendant for S2,3OS. A motion was made
by the plaintiffs for a new trial.
Judge Leavitt charged the jury in this
case. that writ of replevin could not issue
from the Federal Courts against goods le-
gally in the possession of an officer of the
State Courts and that the Court which first
sustained jurisdiction of the property held
it." Consequently, if the jury should find
that the goods replevined were properly in
the hands Of the sheriff, verdict must be
entered for the defendant, as that fact would
prove bsr to the present action. In &C.
cordance with these instructions, the Jury
gave verdict for the Sheriff.
This decision is one Of interest to litigants
and the legal profession. and if sustained by
the full Couit, Judges Mclean and Leavitt)
upon the argument for a new trial, this
week. will settle an important principle in
regard to the jurisdiction and distinct action
of the Federal and State Courts, and will
prevent colliaon II authority, particular.

RER.- take the liberty Ct forwarding 10
you journal published in Albany, which
reached me this morning. through the me-
dunn of the post office. 1t contains, "a you
will perceive, an article of three columns.
scurrilous in its language towards myself,
and malicious in its intended purpose as at
fecting the public mind.
do not notice it with view Of repel-
ling its defamatory imputations. Many
such articles have come under my notice,
and been allowed to pass unheeded by me.
had begun to suppose that my age, If not
my office in the Church. would shield me
from personal insult at the hands of all hon
orable men having control of the public
press, and Of course having the power to
influence public opinion for good or evil
1t is not my intention, therefore. with the
antecedants of my life. more or less known
to my fellow citizens to interpose any shield
Of defence against the impeachments and
ISLANDERS contained in the article to which |
have taken the liberty of calling your at
tention
But owe it 70 the candor, the honora-
bic impartiality and kindness which have
experienced, even in the worst of times, at
the hands of the Press, to state at once, and
in the most emphatic manner. that so far as
l am conscious of truth and of my own
thoughts and actions. there is not syllable
in the article referred to that is not equally
false and malicious. The object Of tho u.ri
ter ana publisher is evidently to inflame the
minds Of portion Of our people by a state
ment which, if it prove true, would render
me unfit to live in civilized community
but which, SO far US am concerned, or any

is as false "a if it came imme diately from

Republicanism Wooeth -" Sam ,

The Chicago Tribune, thc'hcad and
front of the Republican party, in the
State of Illinois, becoming satisfied
that the Kansas hobby has been ridden
to death, has deserted the poor hack
which has carried it through so many
defeats, and gets astride OF fresh
donkey, to ride and glory in" The
new string, out ofthc Thousand, stretch
ed upon the Republican harp, which
they are now thumbing, is Know Moth
;no;s.. A. i--o ..vovunS VI . a secret
oath bound organization" among the
Roman Catholics Of New York, is pub
lishcd, and the Tribune with all the
JUNCTION of a" highest degree member"
comments upon the alarming facts ex-
posed. This imaginary organization
is called the "Circie of Jesus" and has
its head and centre in the person of
Archbishop Hughes, at the city of New
York, around whom all the minor
lodges of the organization are repre-
sented as revolving like so
many moths around a candle. The
object of all this perfect organization,
these grips and passwords and terrible
oaths, is to set on foot measures for
the exclusion Of the Bible from the
common schools, in which catholic
children are educated. The account
is copied from a crazy Know Nothing
Journal published at Albany; but the
Tribune makes it,its own by swallowir 2
the whole ridiculous story, and holding
up its hands in holy horror at the ter
rible Vaccinations of Popery. Tie
entire story is, of course, manufactured
out Of whole cloth, and is ct only to
be told to the horse marines," or

those whose swallowing capacities hsve
had great practice by gulping downthe
living stories Of the zyi5une's Kansas
correspondents.
That the Roman Catholics would
prefer that their children should be ed
nc a.cd in separate schools where they
could have an opportunity of impress
ing upon their minds the peculiar
doctrines Of their religion, is unques-
toned, and that the protestants hold
the same opinions in regard to their
religious belief is equally true; but
that they 1.-THE Roman Catholics) have
gone to all the expense and trouble Of
getting up a secret organization. with
all its cumbrous machinery, its grips
and passwords, and terrible oaths-and
have exposed themselves to all the
risks of detection, for the purpose o.
excluding the Bible from all common
schools, in opposition to the wishes Of
a majority Of the people, is simply
ridiculous. Such a story might have
gained credcncc in the days of Lr
Oates but in this enlightened age il
will find but few believers.
In another column will be found q
letter from Arch Bishop Hughes, de.
nying the whole story in the most EN-.
phatic terms. We wonder whether
these precious individuals who SCI
themselves up as the champions o.
the Protestant t Bibls hsr1b oser -ssfGH9cd
reads as follows:
"All liars shall have their part in
the lake which burns with fire and
