Two Years Since,

Two years ago yesterday Lawrence wa
sacked BY an invading army from Missou-
ri. and the Territory was overrun by q
banditti, whose object was to drive out, Oh
exterminate every Free State man in the
Territory. The Free State Hotel, the
Herald Of Freedom Office, the Free Stat.
Office, DR.. RoBISsoN's dwelling, and a
large amount of other property was des-
troyed or carried away. The Free State
Hotel isrebuilt on a much larger scale,
as is the Herald of Freedom Office. The
foreign banditti have dispersed, and made
room for Free State banditti, which is
nosO prowling over this Territory. So far
as the Pro-Slavery party is concerned,
they concede that the victory is ours, and
nothing but the fanatical course of a few
fanatical men can prevent us from attain
ing all our wishes in regard to the great
question now at issue.

How Cam. 1, rhsr.f

From the BeIleville Democrat of the
LIST, we clip the following singular account
of the finding of q tree deep in the
ground
"Mr. Owens, a few hundred yards out
of town, on the Mascoutah plank-rosd, in
sinking well on his premises few days
ago, about twenty five feet below the sur
face, struck what proved to be the top Of
a tree.
"The well is sunk on q rolling swell Of
a clay ridge; after the first few feet
of surface mould the earth is hard,
compact clay to the top boughs of this
tree. The tree was standing upright, and
he followed it down, trimming off the
boughs and limbs, and removing the body.
as the depth of the well increased, the
size of the tree increased, till at the depth
of forty-fye feet the tree is about eighteen
inches in diameter.
The tree is in astate of perfect preser-
walton, but is not at all petrifsd. Tree,
roots, and all, were surrounded By hard
compacted red and blue clay from top TO
bottom, that gave no indication of eEsr
having been disturbed before. The tree
Is cottonwood, such as grow In the river
bottoms, but there is no grove or single
tree of that kind within . mile of tbs

SIR :-Yours of March 18th and 3Otb are
both before me- Politically, 1 can answer
both in the same terms. 4 brief review
OF the course which events have taken
here for the last six months. will enable
you to understand our position and appre-
ciate our necessities. While Kansas is
blessed with many of the truest men of
. the age, men who are fully MP to the
emergency, she is also cursed with some
OF the most unpincipled demagogues that
ever afflicted any country. Principles are
OF use to them. only to subserve personal
or party ends; and what makes the mat
ter worse is, that some of them are among
those who have heretofore been looked
up to as leaders.
In January last q large number of the
people were induced, by the grossest de-
ception, TO 60 into an election for State
Officers under the Lecompton Constitution.
The distinct declaration was made, that
the aim, IN this move, was TO fill the Offices
to the exclusion of others, slavery men.
and then to refrain from touching the un-
clean thing, and allow the people TO set
up their own government, either the To-
peka or some other, to be inaugurated BIZ

The Topeka Tribune represents Attor-
ney General WEER as pro-slayery man,
and says the pro-slayery party have
majority of the election board nnde, the
English bill which is now . Law. Mr..
Wee is not pro-slayery man. He is a
native of Illinois sustained Walker and
Stanton in urginga submission of the Lee
mpton Constitution to . vote of the
people, and when this was refused, he took
an open position against it he visited
Washington during the forepart of the
winter, and has remained there laboring
zealously to defeat the swindle, standing
by the side of Messrs DOUGLAS, HARRIS,
MoETeokERy, &c; and when he could be
of no further use there, he directed his
course towards Kansas, with the view oil
doing all in his power to secure to the
people of Kansas their rights under the
English bill. Because of his persistent
hostility from the first, to the Lecomp-
ton Swindle. and his support of Senator
DoUeLAs, Gov. WALKER &c, the Presi-
dent, it is reported, has removed him,
and supplied his place with Mr.. DAVIS, Of
Wyandott, one of the gentlemen who
claimed aseat in the Territorial Legisla-
ture, from Leavenworth county last winter.
1t has been the policy of the TII5un.
and that class of journals, to brand all
men with the name of pro-slavery,
merely because men did not endorse their
extreme views, just as extreme pro-slave-
~ men were in the habit of branding all
persons As Abolitionists who did not justi-
fy awarof determination upon the Free
State party. The pro-slsyery party fol-
lowed their practice in this respect until
Abolitionism became popular, and men
aspiring to Office, like Gen. LANE e,
Leavenworth, were forced to assume the
name. We hope Ross viii not pursue
the opposite policy until the name o!
Pro-Slayery shall become popular.

The Vote On III. Constitution.

The vote at the Franklin precinct OF
Tuesday last embraced less than half {
vote. Thirty-thres votes were giver
against the Leavenworth Constitution and
seven were given for it.
At Gardner or AcCammish, in johnson
County, only dozen votes were poiIed
probably all for the Constitution, as no.
body has taken any interest in organic.
ing the opposition to that instrument.
In Lawrence it represented that 6Os
votes were polled. near fifty of which were
against the Constitution.
The vote was very small throughout
the Territory. and viii probably not ex-
coed 1900 or 1900. In consequence Of
the repugnance Of the people to the entire
and the consciousness that
1t could not. under any circumstances,
to anything, the opposition did
not go to the polls, and hence it is un-
doubtedly ratified, but with majority 50
trifing that it completely destroys it, and
those who were silly enough to accept the
domination for Offices under it. We have
returns from only few precincts. Pal
nyra is reported TO have polled about so.
votes ont of the 200 in the precinct. A
mall majority of these were in favor of
he Leavenworth Constitution. At Prai-
lie City the vote was very light, with 5
majority reported against the Constitution.

po-semsthinrs or po-Nothinss.


The Topeka Tribune represents that
those who have stigmatized the Topeka
ties with being Do-Nothings, are virtually
Do-Nothings themselves. So far as the
Tribune referred to the desire of those
who were in favor of the voting policy
doing nothing to inuagurate another Tope-
ka government, which should possess
none of the forms Of government but in
name, it is correct. If by an active poll
cy the Tribune is vindicating Montgom-
cry and his banditti, then they are do
nofhings. If desire to settle down in
a quiet way, and preserve the Territory
from war and violence, is branded with
that appellation, we are happy to wear it.
If, on the contrary. it is applied to our past
action in Wrestling the government from
the pro-slavery party, and placing it in the
hands of genuine anti-slavery men or
securing officers under the Lecompton
Swindle, by which that gross fraud upon
our rights was prevented or if it relates
to our determination to vote down the in
famous proposition submitted to us in the
English bill, or in our earnest efforts to in
augurate a government of the people,
which shall protect all classes and inter
ests, and which shall be, in fact, the gov
eminent of Kansas, then we are thee.
retically and practically Do-soMETHINas
and those who have cajoled the dear

falsehoods have attempted to control
everything, will be satisfied of this in due
time.

Mass Meeting at Mound Ctr.

MOUND CITY, Linn Co.,l
May 9th, 1858.
Onreceiving the astounding intelligence
that Lecompton had passed with mag.
nifcent bribe attached, some one hundred
citizens assembled in Mass Meeting al
Mound City, on Saturday, May 9th, tc
take action in relation to the swiDdle.
E. H. Smith, Esq, was appointed Chair.
man, and Rev. j. R. Mari, Secretary.
Speeches were made by Rev. Mr.. Robert
son, of the n. E. Church, and DR.. A.
Danford, after which the following reso.
buttons were passed unanimously:
Resolved, That we hail the passage OF
the bill admitting Kansas into the Union
as a State under the Lecompton Constitu-
ton, with the amendment recommended
by the Committee of Conference, with
feelings of pain and indignation, and shall
be compelled to regard it as an insuk to
the people of Kansas, and in direct oppo-
sition TO the doctrine that The people
shall be left perfectly free to form and
regulate their own institutions in their
own way"
Rssolued, That the present Administra-
ton, by its acts of perfdy and tyranny
toward the people of this Territory, merits
the condemnation and soor1 of the true
lovers of liberty and popular government
everywhere.
Resolved, That now, as heretofore, we
entertain none but feelings of hostility to
the Lecoinpton Swindle, and pledge our
selves to each other and the Free-State
men of Kansas, to prevent its ever becom-
ing the organic law of the country, not
withstanding the $780, 600 acres Of land
offered as bribe!
Three groans were then given for Mr.
English, and three for the Administra-
ton. Three cheers for Mr.. Crittenden,
and three for Kansas and Freedom. 1t
was then

Your relative, Mr.. Diefsndorf, has
informed US that you have expressed a

have been made here by someof ourcitizens
