Kansas.

One of the most desperate border
rnt1ian murderers during the Kansas
troubles in 1856, is now under arrest.
The notorious Charley Haves, who
murdered a cripple NAMED E fun, on
the road between 1ecompton and
Lawrence, because Bulfum mildly re-
monstratcd against having lis horses
stolen by the villain, was rested by
order of Gov. Geary, who arrived at
the scene of the murder, in season
to hear the sad story Of the dying
man. Judge Lecomptc Immediately
liberated Hayes on straw bail. Goa
ry had him again arrested, dccming
it a public outrage that the perpctra-
tor of so heinous a crime should be
at liberty, but Lccompte liberated
him the second time on Il writ of ha-
beas corpus, and he fled the country.
He has absentcd himself until very
recently, when he returned, and com
mittcd a desperate assault upon a
man living near Sumner. He was
Immediately arrested and is now held
under bonds of $4,000. 1t is hoped he
may also be tried now for the afro
cious murder of the ~unoflending Buff
fun.
Gov. Denver pcrsistently refuses to
call the Legislature of Kansas togeth-
or for the purpose of instituting the
necessary measures to prepare IA con
stitution, under which application for
admission may be made at the next
session of Congress, and by this de-
lay, and various other devices, the
Lecomptonitcs evidently hope to post
ponc the admission of Kansas until a
distant period-if possible, beyond
lS60-that she may have no electoral
votes to cast in the Presidential con-
test Of that year. This sort of Jug
glery is relied upon to thwart the we'll
known wishes of a vast majority of
the American people, and if they are
not iudicious and determined in their
action, it will be successful.
The L~cavcnworth Herald, q Demo.
cratic paper, suggests that in casc
Kansas should apply for admission in
to the Union before she has obtained
the population required by the terms
of the English bill, that law should
be repealed. The first departure from
the usual practice OF demanding that
new states should possess n popula-
ton sufficient to cntitlc them to a
member of Congress was in the case
of Florida, a slave state. In the case
Of Kansas, the South united to admit
her with a less population than she
now has. There should therefore be
no objection from any quarter now
against the admission of Kansas, no
matter what her nomination may be.

A very exciting case of balloon as
cension occurred a few days ago near
Centralia, Illinois. A young man
who is in company with the Eronaut,
G. w. Brooks, assembled in the balloon
and alighted some twenty miles from
the starting point near a farm house
on the prairie. The inhabitants of the
house were ~astonished to see him, and
wondered much at his balloon. He,
to amusc and please the children, al
lowed two of them to go into the car
attached to the balloon, and let them
rise a little in the air, while he held
on to the rope Of the anchor. The
rope by accident, slipped out of his
hands, and the balloon, with the two
children, shot up like a rocket into the
sky. Upon seeing this the parents be-
came almost distracted, but, in the
course of some hours the children and
the ballon descended, and it was found
that the children were both safe, and
one of them was asleep.

Prescription for Opinions Sake.

The Democracy of the Northwest
have a very quiet way of their W of
rebuking the prescription of the Adj
ministration. Thus, when Mr.. David
o was removed as marshal of the
Northern District of Indiana, to make
room for a Native American, G. n.
Pine, he was Immediately nominated
for Congress. j. w. Gray, the editor
of the Plaindealcr, who was elected
from the Cleveland postoffice for the
high crime of being a friend ofDouglas,
has also been nominated for Congress
by the Democracy of his district. And
more recently, Hon. J. w. Davidson,
former q. S. Marshal for the Northern
District of Illinois, having become a
victim of Federal power, the Demo-
Gratis of the Chicago Congressional
District have made him their candi-
date for Congress, with every chance
of his election. Of Mr.. Davidson, the
Chicago Times says:
Every person who has any acquain-
tance with Mr.. Davidson knows him
to be an honorable and able man, and
a staunch and consistent Democrat.
No citizen can point to an act or
speech of his that should throw him
under the ban of any earthly power.
Against him, a IS an agent of the Gen
eral Government, not a single inst
complaint was ever uttered by any
member of the Administration at
Washington, or by any citizen of
Illinois. 1t is, too, well known to the
Administration, as it is to the whole
people of the State, that no man could
be better qualified than Mr.. Davidson
from the particular office from which
he has been removed and that he
was, at the induction of Mr.. Buchanan
into the presidency, the almost unani-
nous choice of the Democracy. On
the day of his removal he was equally
competent and equally the favorite of
the party.
What, then, was the cause of his re-
moval? 1t is surperfluous to write it.
We all know that Mr.. Davidson has
been sacrificed because of his attach
mcnt to the Democratic party {; be-
cause he would not rrpudiatc, at the
beak of any tyrannical inquisitor at
Washington, the regular nominations
of the party {; and because he would
not leave unattended to his official du-
ties to hound and throttle Stephen A.
Douglas . Democrats I. citizens !! there
you have the reasons that impellcd
the ~bchcading of Hon. James w.
Davidson? We will not insult you
by askinm what Won think Of il.

Judge Brccse of Illinois talks quite
in the style of the Washington Union.
In his letter denying that he has ta-
ken himself ont of the way as a can
didate for the Z. S. Senate, he says to
the Douglas editor who had published
the assertion
zone thing you may be assured,
and mypast life is the guaranty that |
will not be silent nor inactive when |
see, or think | see, that great party in
danger from conspirators within its
own bosom, or from foes without. The
last aiu least to be dreaded, as their
attacks are open in the sunlight, and
manly. The conspirator deals his
blow secretly he gets up false issues
for the occasion, under the cover of
which he makes his attack. This
species of warfare is now in progress,
and | am surprised You do not see it"
As we anticipated, Judge Douglas
declaration in favor of that kind of
popular sovereignty forbidden by the
bred Scott Decision, has aroused new
hostility in the Administration ranks.
Even the New York Journal of Com
merce, which has had several long
leaders to show that Douglas was still
a good Democrat worthy of the party
appreciation, now gives him over to
his fate. 1t pronounces his Frecport
speech Inconsistent, passionate and
anti Democratic."
