the exception of the candidate for Con
gress. Marcus ;. Parrot having over
shot the fest of his ticket 1t is stated,
however, that Calhoun does not claim
that the Legislators are elected in Leas-
enworth County. re
In Douglas County it appears that
nearly all of the votes cast for State Of
fieers by Free State men, amounting to
five or six hundred, were sent with the
returns of the vote upon the ,Constitus
ton to Gov. Denver. Calhoun. refuses
to count them, they not being forwarded
to him in accordance with theprovisionS
of the swinding schedule. This gives
the Rufians the members elect from
Douglas county, and still keeps up the
balance of power. However, it is all a
matter of speculation till Calhoun and
his masters at w ashington, whittier he
has now gone, shall settlenpon the poli-
cy now to be pursued. There is little
doubt in any mind. that the felons will
have the State officers and Legislature
in their hands, and there will be no re-
course left but hanging of the pro-sla
very llculllDeulS, which surely, dS TIE
Redemption Legislature undertakes to.
meet, will be done, unless the U. S. Ar
my is constantly kept aroundsvhenl.
PROCEEDINGS OF THE LEGISLATURE.
The Constitutional Convention bill
passed the Council tonight, and will be
laid before Governor Denver, for his sig
nature tomorrow. In addition to the
provision appointing the time for the e.
lection of delegates and the meeting of
the Convention, which is to take place
the first and last weeks in March, pro
vision has been inserted by which the
Constitution is submitted to the popular
vote, and State. officers elected under it
the second week, in May next. 1t fur
Their provides that the returns shall be
made for the first election to the Gov
ernor, Speaker and President of the

Double Dealing on the Kansas Question.

80 WASHINGTON, Tuesday, Feb. 9.
| "A double game is being played on the
Kansas question. The Presidents con-
stantly assuring the Northern Demo-
Gratis privately that he knows the Free
State Legislature to be returned cleo
ted. Calhoun, who ostentatiously de-
elares that he has not seen the Presi-
dent, is constantly assuring the Southern
men that in any event the Pro-Slavery
men shall have the control of the State.
The game of the Lecomptonites IN
the Senate is to stihe an investigation
of the frauds, and so they voted down
Douglas resolution to-day, lest it might
be. rendered impossible for anybody to
countenance them. They are trying to
keep matters straight until they have
got every Democrat committed that
they possibly can; then, if it is found
absolutely necessary in order to gain
the measure in the Senate, Calhoun
will return Free-State Legislature, al
though lie has said that he would make
no return until after Kansas shall have
been admitted. But it is intended, still
to return the Pro Slavery State Ticket
SO that the Governor can veto any legis-
latiye act calling new Convention.
Il Calhoun yesterday, in effect, propo-
sed to return the Free-State Legislature
if Harris would withdraw his resolution,
which he declined. a9 a
Harris is in consultation with Orr to-
night, relative to the selection of the
Special Committee. s Ta
1t was Soaring, and not Seaman, who
voted with the Lecomptonites yes
terday, promising To vote against them
if Harris would modify his resolution,
as he did. La..s. ,as
The Senate Committee on Territories
will meet on Thursday. Kansas will
probably not be reported back until
Monday. 90 SIS 9n3l3H

CURE FOR CANCERs.-N ought to be
Universally h3aoacR.-Our attention has
been recently called to cure for can
GERS, which is of so much Importance
that we wish TO make it known as wide
ly as possible. Some eight months ago,
Mr.. L. 3. Mason--who keeps a music
store on Wisconsin street and is broth
er of the well known Lowell Mason
ascertained that he had cancer on his
face, of the size of pea. 1t was cut
out by DR.. Woleott and the wound par.
TALLY healed. Subsequently it grew a.
gain and while he was in Cincinnati on
business it attained the size of q hick-
DRY nut. He has remained there since
Christmas under treatment and has come
back perfectly cured. The process is
this: ~
A piece of sticking plaster was put
over the cancer, with a circular piece
ont of the center a little larger than the
cancer, SO that the cancer and a small
circular rim of healthy skin next to it
was exposed Then plaster made of
clorhide of zinc, bloodroot and wheat
flour was spread on piece of muslin of
the size of this circular opening, and
applied to the cancer for "a hours. On
removing it the cancer viii be found to
be burnt into, and appear of the color
and hardness of an old shoe sole, and
the circular rim outside of it will appear
white and parboiled, as If scaided by hot
steam. The wound is now dressed, and
the outside rim soon suppurates and the
cancer comes out hard lump, and the
place heals up. The plaster Kills the
cancer so that it sloughs cut like dead
flesh, 'and necer grotcs again. This rem
edy was discovered by DR.. Fell, of Lon
DON. and has been used by him for six
or eight years, with unfailing success,
and not a case has been known of the
temperance Of the cancer, where this
remedy has been applied. 1t has the
sanction of the most eminent physicians
and surgeons of London, but has not,
till recently, been used in this country,
and many of the faculty, with their prov
erbial opposition TO innovations, look up
on it with distrust. We saw Mr.. Mason
at church yesterday, and have since
conyersed with him and look particular
notice of the cicatrized wound and we
can only say, that if the cure is perma-
nent, and from the evidence of six or
eight years experience in other cases,
we have no doubt IT is-the remedy
ought TO be universally known. We
have referred to this case, because Mr..
Mason is we'll known both here and at
the East. The experiment excited much
interest in Cincinnati, and we call the
attention of the faculty in this State to
i the remedy. II it is what is calculated
for it, this terrible disease viii be shorr
of most of its terrors. The application
| is painful, but the pain is of compare
lively brief duration, which any one Sc
afflicted would cheerfully endme.-Mil
