LAWRENCE. X. T.. Jan. "a.
Another infamous outrage has been per-
petrated by the Federal officials with the
aid Of the army. Henderson. who it will
be remembered, was arrested for forging
the Delaware Crossing returns. and has
been in custody in Lawrence, while under.
going an examination before Judge Miller
The question of jurisdiction had consumed
the time of the Court up to yesterday,
when it was decided, aud the examination
would have been entered into to-day.
In the middle of the night, large body
of U. S. dragons arrived opposite Law.
renee from Fort Leavcnworth. A Mar
shall, or pretended Marshall, was sent
into town, and Henderson taken from
his bed on writ of ha6eas corpus-the
Deputy Sheriff in whose charge he was not
being permitted to examine the document
closely.
Here is another villainous act--a man
charged with crime, with abundant ev-
idence of his completely with it, taken sur
reptiousty in the night from the custody
of the proper officers, aided and abetted by
the Federal soldiers.
The mere release of Henderson would not
amount to-much were it not from. the re-
suits likely to accrue from it.
1t will be remembered that the late Free
State ticket, by the returns published by
the Speaker and President of the General
Assembly, had an average majority OF
three hundred. The Delaware Crossing
returns were figured up to three hundred
and thirty-nine, and also elected the mem
bers Of the Legislature under the Calhoun
Constitution. The arrest Of Henderson
caused these returns to be missing, and
thus the above Free State majority was
shown. As long az Henderson was in
custody they were kept back, but now
there is little doubt in my mind that they
will DO produced. 1t is rumored that
Calhoun stated in Loavenworth yesterday
that the Pro-Slavery men had carried
Leavenworth County. 1t is evident that
laws are Of no use in Kansas, with the Fed
eral officials and army against us. Moth.

Ey Gov. Wise's detection from IL

EE- Gov. Wise's detection from the
Administration has secret history, says
the Washington Republic. which. in the
progress OF the quarrels between the Dem
ocratic leaders, cannot be kept secret much
longer.
|! The President started out with the poll
cy of securing to the people of Kansas a
fair vote upon their Constitution. He
sent Gov. Walker to Kansas to execute
that policy. For while, he stood firm,
and wrote letter to Gov. Walker, mot
yet published, but shown by Gov. w. to
many persons. assuring him of the sup
port of the Administration. LET Georgia
and alabama and Mississippi hoWl," said
the President in his letter, al rW stand By
you" That the President used substan-
TALLY this language, is well authenticated
fact.
In the end, the 'ho,eling'' became SO ter
rife. tina: poor Buchanan was frightened
ont of his wits. changed his policy. and a
bandoncd Gov. Walker.
Before he changed his policy. lie had ar
ranged with Gov. Wise to make diversion
against the fire-eaters in Virginia. Gov.
Wise and the Richmond Enquirer. under
Gov. Wise's influence, were to support
the Administration programme in Kansas.
aud the Administration were to support
Gov Wise for the u. s. Senatorship a.
gainst Mr.. Hunter. Gov. Wise arrived
here, to complete and perfect these arrange
ments, on the very day that the Union an
noun-ei tie PRESIDENT subDsissioato the NIL
ifers Gov. Wise went home, and has
been since nursing the wrath which breaks
out in his letter to Tammany Hall. Not
only was his scheme of defeating Mr.. Hun
ter blown mp, but he himself has been
drawn into commitments upon the Kansas
question, which destroy his Democratic
standing. disabled as he il. from making
any effective fight by tho treachery Of the
President. Gov. Wise is a betrayed man,
and. as Democratic politician ruined
If he does not compass some revenge,
even if "uictory" be unattainable, it will
prove that age has wonderfully softened his
temper

The Noble County Regulators
a DESPERATE HUNGl

The Citizens fNoble County, who had
organized themselves into Vigilance
Committee, or band of Regulators. as
they are styled, as mentioned in our last
weeks issue. have continued their oper-
atoms throughout the week. Twenty
two arrests in all have been male. Bur
nam, one OF the prisoners, with whom the
materials for counterfeiting were found,
is now in Jail in this place, in the custody
OF Deputy o. s. Marshal SEELY. and is to
be taken to indianapolis for trial The
other prisoners are still in the hands of the
Regulators, and arc restricted from all
legal counsel
Our citizens, who have taken deep
interest in these proceedings, were greatly
startled by the tragical news received
on Tuesday night, that one of these
prisoners had been actually hung. His
name was Gregory MsLane alias Ne
Dougal, formerly from Canada West and
the accomplice of the notorious Town
send.
Tie confessed to having been engaged
in moro than thirty highway robbcries,
burglarics and thefts. 1t was he who
broke open Bakers store at Waterford,
several years ago, which he says, was
the only villainy he ever perpetrated in
this County. He broke from the Chatam
prison, in Canada, aud at the same time
stole bag of gold from the Jailor's wife;
for which, and other ncfarious acts. he was
obliged to flee the country. Since that
time he has been living in Noble County,
has always been looked upon as suspi-
cious character, and was among the first of
those arrested.
He had been informed of his intended
execution two days before. and on Tuesday
the Regulators to the number of five hund
red rode into town ON horseback, took
him to Diamond Lake Hill, four miles
from Ligonier and there hanged him till
he was dead. 1t is deplorable state OF
society, when community feel impeled,
by considerations of safety to their per-
sons and property, thus to take the law
in their own hands, and to infct on fell
low-bcing the highest punishment known
to our laws. The people Of Noble Coun-
ty, in justification of their acts, say that
for years, they had been infested by nu-
merous and organized set of scoundrels
and thieves, against whose deple lations
the Law has afforded them no adequate
professionalism in every instance, in
which these scoundrels have been brought
before the Courts, either thro' the techui-
calities Of the law or the inefficicncy of
public officers or the false swearing of their
confederates, they have been allowed to
go, unwhipt of justice It must be in
decd sad condition of things that can
excuse to any sane mans mind, the delhi
crate taking of human life, and we await,
with anxiety for further developments
