p lie peanle Of he U..itsd State

70 tie People Of The U,.jted States:-
Having recently removed from the Of
fee of Secretary Of Kansas Territory, I'M
Ger circumstances which imply severe CEN
sure on the part OF the PFesjdent,and llay
als had no official information of my re-
moya, nor ans opportunity If explanation
or defence, have deemed it necessary to
present to the people Of the IN
tied States a brief statement Of facts in
yindication Of nay motives, and in explana-
son of the results of the act for which |
have been condemned.
The office in question WIS not given at
MY solicitation. My acceptance of it, un-
,!ar all the circumstances, was q proof OF
strong friendship for the President, and
uubounded confidence in the tifmness and
!aithfulness with which he would adhere
to tie line Of policy deliberately agreed up
On between him, his whole Cabinet, andGov.
Walker.
On nv arrival in the Territory in April
last. in advance of Gov Walker, | confess
,hat had an imperfect knowledge OF the
ftai condition of affairs. | supposed the
Question of slavery to be the only cause Of
ascension and difficulty among the people
and in my brief inaugural address Of the
18th April, | treated this as the chief sab
iect Of difference upon which a submission
10 the viii Of the people would te likely
10 be demanded. | soon found, however,
that this view was altogether too limited,
and did not reach the true ground OF con
troversy. The great mass Of The inhabi-
tants Of the'rerritory were dissatisfied with
the local goyernment.and earnestly deniei
the validity Of existing laws. Asserting
that the previous Legislatures had been
forced upon them by the violence OF q
neighborinq people, they proclaimed their
determination never TO submit 10 the en-
actnents of the Legislative bodies thus be
ljeyed to be Legitimate, aad not entitled
10 obedience.
This was the condition Of things when
Gov. Walker came to the Territory, il the
latter part of MayIt was evident that the
ass policy of permitting them toregulate
their own affairs could not be successfully
carried out unless they could be inspired
with confidence in the agents Of the Gov
ernment through whom this result was to
be effected. If a mere minority of the
people had been dissatisfied and contuma-
eious, they insight possibly have been pro
nouneed factious and treated as disturbers
Of the peace, but when the dissatisfaction
MAS general, comprising almost the whole
people, a more respectful consideration was
Indispensable to a peaceable adjustment
iswas evident that the policy of repres-
sihg--s rigid attempt to enforce subrnis
sion without any effort at reconciliation
would inevitably result in renewal of the
evil war. With commendable anxiety to
avoid this contingency, Gov. Walker re-
stsed to go among the people, to listen
10 their complaints, to give them assurance
Of 6 fair and just administration of the Ter

Murder win Ont.

The following disclosures have lately
been made Of the circumstance of a mur-
Ger and ROBBERY at Lacrosse, Wisconsin.
They are taken from the Peoria, (Ill.)
Union and the Chicago Times: 9
In July. 1857, young man landed at
Lacrosse from one Of the Prairie du Chen
and St. Paul packets. lie pfSessded de
rectly to livery stable and hired horse
and buggy for tie purpose, as he stated,
Of going some distance back into the
country. From this trip he returned just
at dusk, and in paying the stable keeper,
displayed some $500 in money, all in
bills Of $50 and 800. One of the fifties
was given to the stable.keeper, who re-
turned the requisite change. A man
named William John was standing in the
stable at the time and witnessed the
transaction. He followed the boy, on
leaving the stable, and this was the last
zine the latter was seen alive. About
two weeks alterward, his body was fished
out of the river by some men drawing a
seine. Il had been stabbed four times
in the region Of the heart and there was
also wound on the face, the effect of
blow with some heavy weapon. The
body was quite naked. ~
Not far from the same time, jewelry
store in Lacrosse was robbed of some
$4,000 worth Of goods. No clue was
obtained to the perpetrator oil either OF
these crimes until some months afterward.
There were living in Lacrosse, at that time
L. Keisner, Albert Malow, William John
and Charles Reisner, They were enga-
ged in the butchering business, and it was
pretty generally suspected that the greater
part of their stock was stolen from farm
ers and others in the neighborhood.--
They at length got into difficulty in re.
gard TO burning another butchers barn,
and fed the country. Mallow left his
wife and child in Lacrosse. They had
been gone about three months when
Mallow's wife, becoming reduced to alb
solute want, sold some jewelry in liquiGa-
ton of her board. The jewelry was
found to be portion Of the goods stolen
from the store of Patze. A search war.
rant was Immediately taken out, and in
the house in which this woman had been
living unlawfully with L. Kelsner, about
one thousand dollars worth Of jewelry
was found in trunk under the bed, to.
gether with the identical clothes of the
murdered boy, identified by the stamps
through them corresponding with wounds
upon his body. Mrs. Mallow and Keis-
ner were arrested and confined in Jail.
The clue thus afforded to the perpe.
traitors of both crimes was then taken up
by Mr.. Coudfy, who followed their trail
until all The implicated parties were ar.
rested, Mallow was found at Council
Bluffs, Iowa, in the butchering business,
under the name Of VIM, Teale. John
was found in Missouri near Lavenworth
City, at work in saw mill. He had a
shaniy in the woods where about $4,000
worth Of stolen jewelry was also found
On the way down the Missouri River,
the prisoner, heavily ironed, jumped
overheard and, was drowned. Charles
Keisner, the last of,he gang, was arrested
at Peoria, day before yesterday. About
$4,000 worth Of the stolen jewelry was
found in his possession.
