Frank Warner and the Ab0litionists.
We have been placed in possession Of some
interesting facts relative to the defeat of Mr..
Grow, in the Republican County Conyen-
ton.
1t appears that town meeting was called
sometime last spring for the purposs,of or
ganizing "Union party" in LaSalle county
to be governed by the secret workings Of
the shanghai Republicans Of the city Of o.
tswa. This was signal to throw of the
Abolitienists; and Frank Warner at the tine
slsctioneered and undertook to trade of ab
olitionists for Douglas democrats, with
view Of forming an alliance between them
and the o-called republicans In order to
censunats this sehene, 4 number Of demo-
Gratis were named for the different office
on the "Union Ticket" but as soon ~ they
found their names were being placed, with
cut authority, in such . connection, they
came out and denounced them. The pot
was now boiling over, and in order to save
themselves, . reconciliation WAS once more
effected with the Abolitonists, with the un-
Outstanding that fair play should be OBJ
served, and Mr.. Grow have the nomination
for Sheriff. How did they stick to their bar
gain? 1t is well known that the whole AZ
fair proved . political swindle. As Mr.. 6.
had such strong claims on the Republican
party, every devise that could be thought Of
WAS brought into requistion TO defeat him,
yet sll under the garb Of entire fairness and
good faith. But in the convention the screen
WAS removed, exposing = system Of wire
pulling unprecedented in the political histo-
~ ofthis,county, aud bringing shamesupon
the faces Of the instixators Of uch.treachery.
We give these facts for the purpose of illus.

A convention of law-and order and national dem

the 18th of March, to nominate county officers, when
series of resolutions adopted from which select
the subjoined:
That the admission of Kansas State under the LIE
compton constitution is demanded by all conservative
men in this Territory that it would have tendency to
pacfy the Union to relieve Congress from irritable
and dangerous question to unite and strengthen the
tional democracy and to perpetuate the Union.
That we recognise the right of majority of the pco-
pie of any and every State In the great conederacy in
legal manner to amend their constitution make new
ones not inconsistent with the federal constitution and
that should majority of the people of Kansas desire it,
they have the right through their legislature, to call
convention to alter amend make constitution, if
they not satisfied with the Lccompton constitution,
should it pass.

United States meets appreciation, and that regard

Of yesterday morning returns devout thanks for its
deverance from the Senate bill to admit Kansas into
the Union. That paper has all along been opposed
altogether to the admission of Kansas with the Lee
compton constitutions now it rejoices over its con-
ditiona acceptance. Verify we shall expect the
subject of this rapid conviction to be fully convert

The letter lately addressed by the Hon. 4 L. Ander-
tc has been received with general appreciation since ts
circulation and successfully reutes the charges applied
to him Of disappearing those who voted for him du-
ring the last The manly straightforward
adopted by him upon issues OF vital Importance both to
his own State in common with the South may seem OBJ
jeconable to socaed leaders of the American party
already tainted with freesosm but otherwise the views
expressed by him in Congress will be duly appreciated il
now at least when time has revealed fully their
correctness
Instead of indignation meetings. at first ntmated,
to denounce the has happened to applaud and
eulogze the sentiments promulgated by him in his late
Kansas speech As he remarks in the letter just issued
the contest to be between two parties for the
premacy, and the party organization Of which he
member being in the minority, could effect nothing by
remaining neutral and only by acting with of the
dominant factions
Not regarding the questions at Issue of party
fealty in which light few disposed to view them
required but short delibeaton to determine which
faction if in the ascendant would represent the interests

Col Anderson would doubtless have been more really

In becoming candidate for reelection upon the stand

public mind is the surest method he arms, of excul-
patng his conduct from the charge of having designedy

plains returned last week. and report that twenty
days travel south from the Salt Plains they upon
large number of Cumanche Kiowah, Waco, and Wit
cheta Indians assembled in council who received them
very friendly and traded with them freely for the goods
they brought The council had under consideration
the best method of resisting the United States and in
formed the Cherokees that they had just been visited by
party of Enormous and Mexicans," from whom they
had received large quantity of presents and had made
treaty with them for their mutual protection against
the cncroachments of the gentiles The Mormons have
impressed upon those tribes the necessity of uniting with
them and taking decided stand against the United States
If they wish TO retain their hunting grounds stating that
the whites in possession Of Utah. they will
then spread all the plains, and drive the Indians
from their present homes. No doubt the hostility Of
those tribes will be principally directed against this from
tier wherever they find it most exposed.
The Cherokees who made this trip brought in with
them about thirty horses and mules very reliable
men, and have engaged to meet those tribes again this
year at certain point the plains agreed upon between
them, for the purpose OF trade L.
