A DOUGLAS ORaAN.-The States, pub.
lished at Washington city, and edited by
JOHN P. HE1ss, formerly one of the edi.
tors of the Union, has swung around to
Douglas side of that party, and is very
jealous in its efforts to make Kansas a
Democratic State. 1t thinks if Kansas is
not admitted under the Lecompton Con-
stitution, that the party goes to ruin. The
Union, Mr.. BucHANAN's organ, thinks
that in no other way can the party be pre-
served, than by the admission of Kansas
under the Lecompton swindle. In any
event, we think the "Sham Democracy Of
the present day is sure to go to sticks,
which ever horn of the dilema they may
hold on TO. II they admit Kansas under
the Lecompton Constitution, the little they
had left in the Northern States when
BUCHANAN was elected, is lost them, and
on the other hand, if they refuse to admit
with that Constitution, the South will de-
sert them.

Waiker on Rachanan.

In speech recently delivered at Mobile
by Gen. WALKER, he showed up the con.
duct of the President in . way that win
not be relished by his admirers. He says
that he had several interviews with Mr..
BucHAsAN and his Cabinet officers, and was
told BY the latter where to go and where he
might 60 in safety, advised to sail in and
an American vessel aud under American CO.
lors, and that he should not be touched
except by consent of the Government
He was told to land his forces at San Juan
del Norte, and promised protection against
British interference, at the risk OF war
with that country.
Is it not enough to make every Ameri-
can blush to see their President associating
with and aiding this pirate and putting it
In his power to testify to bis duplicity and
poverty of principle. Ifpossible, Mr.. b.
cHAsAN, first the co-conspirator with, and
then the betrayer of WILLIAM WALKER, is
more contemptibls than Mr.. BUCHANAN
the author of the last batch of Kansas
fabrications; and al this rate, il will soon
be difficult TO say in which particular
branch of his administration, he is most
weak and treacherous.

The STEBBINs PLATFORM. Democ-
racy in the Legislature who passed the
Janus-faced resolutions on Kansas affairs,
are imitators of the great Stebbins, who
ran for the Presidency on his own hook.
When asked how he stood on the Maine
law, be replied that he was "in favor of the
law, but against its execution" So with
the Ohio Democracy, they say they are
against the Lecompton Constitution, but
are in favor of the man who seeks TO i'm
pose it on an unwilling people. Hurra for
the Stebbins Democracy!

THE "INsrITuTIoN" TRIUMpHANT.-On
Friday last, the bill for the repeal of the
law of last winter to prevent slaveholding
and kidnapping in Ohio passed the Sen
ate by party vote-20 Locofoco Senators
recording their votes in favor of ignoring
the principles efthe Ordinance of f's7, while
the IA Republicans were arranged in an
unbroken band on the side of freedom. In
the House this bill will secure majority.
as it is understood that it is one of the pet
measures Of caucus. With the jais free for
the Incarceration Of slaves-the territory
of the State open for their introduction at
pleasure of the owners-and the habeas
corpus law repealed, freedom may shrink
ont Of sight, and the aNational institution
Of Slavery" may take poss ssion OF tho
field without fear of Tebuke from our
blessed law-makers.--Xenia ToreAligM.

~A synopsis of the Presidents Mes
sage, on submitting the application of
Kansas for admission under the Lecompton
Constitution, will be found on the outside
of to-days paper. The whole abounds
with Misrepresentation of facts. 1t is o
peyersion of truth in the President, or any
body else, to charge that the people of
Kansas by voting for the election Of foficers
under the Lecompton Constitution, intend
ed in any way, to give their sanction to it.
The President knows that the people of
that territory are opposed to that Constitu-
tion, 5 to l. Justice has been violated
there, frauds, outrages and murders have
been committed, and the President has lent
the aid Of the U. s. Troops to the perpe-
traitors of these frauds, and now seeks to
have Congress sanction them by the reci-
tai of a tissue of falsehoods that would
disgrace any pot house politician.

Lynch Law in Indiana

We condense from the correspondence of
the indianapolis Journal an account of the
hanging, by the populace. of notorious
thief and ,ounterfeiter in Noble county In
diana.
"Noble county has been infested by horse
thieves, counterfeiters and murderers, whose
range extended from Chicago to Toledo,
and whose places of retreat were in Noble
county. The "Regularsn arrested man
named Burman, having in his possession a
washtub of base coin and counteneiting in
struments. Burman was swung up three
times TO tree, and finally confessed, i'm
plicating many others. Some twenty ras-
Gals have been arrested. The leader named
Mccain, with sundry aliases, was tried BY
the Regulators and sentenced to death. A
procession of five hundred horsemen escort
ed the prisoner in wagon 10 the place of
execution. The prisoner was cooi, and
made speech admitting the justncss of
his fate, and advising young men to shun
bad company. The Rev. Mr.. Vert made
a prayer, the prisoner bade his friends fare
well, the rope was put around his neck, aud
he walked out to the end of the wagon and
was dead man. His last words were:
"Little did ! think it would ever come
to this. Let this be a warning to all
young men. Hard, its hard, but it may
be just. i trust the Lord will have mercy
upon my poor soul"
Two more of the counterfeiters were
hanged on the Saturday following

Breslin's Deposition.

The Cleveland Leader says that the
deposition of John 6. Breslin, has lately
been taken at Hamilton, Canada, to be
used or the trial of Gibson. For the pur-
pose of taking this deposition, Gibson visit
ed Bresslin, accompanied by his counsel,
Watson of Tiffin, and Mr. Sparrow on the
part of the State. Breslin states that he
never deposited with or loaned Gibson any
public funds while Treasurer of State
that there have been no financial transac-
tions between them involving any public
money-''the transactions were such only
as might naturally arise between members
of the seme community, and have no re-
lation to the Official conduct of either"
The following question and answer We
give entire:
Q1esticn-At what time or times did
you divert from the Treasury of the State
of Ohio the moneys which ought to have
been there when your term expired, and
which were not paid over TO your successor
in Office? and state if you please when the
last of said moneys.were so diverted.
Answer decline to answer this ques-
ton am not in position here to answer
it, with justice to myself or advantage to
the State. If any money was diverted
from the Treasury during my term of of
flee, it was an error of Judgment, and not
of design. never placed dollar of pub
lie money in the custody Of bank or an
individual, unless at the time supposed its
payment unquestionable. Conscious that
in my private life l never wronged any
one to the value of farthing, the hunli-
alton feel at my official misfortune no one
can know but myself l have been led
into my present difficulties in relying upon
assurances recognized as the most solemn
known to honorable men. In the realiza-
ton of these assurances, was disappoint-
ed at the close of my term, and have the
embarrassmeDts which now around me-
l can only add further, that, whilst in my
present position 1 shall not be enabled to
adjust the alleged Deficiencies ofthe Treasu-
ry. Icould hope with great confidence
that if enabled sooner or later, 1 could do
that justice to the State, it has been my
pride ever between man and man.
Mr.. Breslin declined to answer the uues-
tion how said moneys were disposed, used
or lost by him; what became OF the same;
or to state the circumstances, dates and
names of parties.
He swears that he could not state the
amount of his Indebtedness to the Treasu-
ry as shown by the books of the office, but
presumes that the books showed a greater
Indebtedness than S353,s65.
Ques.-Did you not actually owe the
State of Ohio more than s353,s65?
Ans.-I do not admit any Indebtedness
to the State of Ohio.
Breslin declined to answer the question
what became of the difference between the
amount shown by the books of the office
and that paid Gibson, how and by whom
invested; and in answer to the question in
whose hands are these funds at the present
time? replied:
I decline to answer this question or any
other touching the charge of misapplica-
ton of the funds of the State, on my part,
or involving any other parties, who might
be accused, by naming them.

n~Tbe Democracv in tbe Ob;o I,eoi

@The Democracy in the Ohio Legis-
lature feeling themselves called upon 10
give an expression of opinion on the Kan
sas question, did so lately, by series Of
resolutions, endorsing Buchanah's course,
and fear of offending DoUeLAs, they en-
dorsed him also. This is called feat of
double horsemanship, or trying to ride two
horses going different directions. The pro-
ceedings have had no other effect than to
win contempt for those engaged in them.
