MORNING LEADER.
Reply OF Grrrit smith to Joshua II. cid
dinas.

SYRACUSE, Oct. 10, IS5S.
Hon. J. X GDDINss-My Dear Friend. As
/ am almost constantly on the wing, I some
times do not see for week the letters and pa
pers sent to my home Not until this hour did
l see your letter to me in the Cleveland Morn
ing Leader.
As 1 have held meetings almost daily for
nearly two months, l have not distinct recol-
lection of what said in any one Of them The
newspaper accounts Of these meetings are,
some of them, candid, and some eaucatures
some of them nearly clear and others very full
of errors. Whether I said in my Rochester
meeting what you have imputed to me my MEM
Ory enables me neither to affirm nor deny
In your heart and in your private life You are
an abOlitionist. Ia your political relations you
are not one.
You act with the Republican party and
surely it Is not at work 10 abolish any slavery
Your Free Soil party in 1913 declared its pur-
pose to abolish slavery in the District Of Co
lum5ia. But never heard that this Is one Of
the purposes Of the Republican party The
trOrds of It's platform may include this purpose:
but they are Of no account as long as the desds
of the party do not express it.
Why, your party does not undertake to DO
even 50 little as TO abolish slavery in what are
miscalled the Free States In my own State it
has refused to DO so. 1t leaves the way open in
all these Free States for the kidnapper to come
and sink men and women and children into the
pit of slavery.
Now, whatever your party may say against
the extension Of slavery, does it 20 against it.
1t voted in Congress to receive Kansas with or
without slavery. | know that Republicans in
this State still talk against admitting slave
States. But how little reliance should be placed
upon this talk, 50 long as they are not willing
to clear their own State Of slavery 1t Is no
more TO be believed that he, y5hn leaves slavery
untouched at home, Is to be relied on TO stop Il
abroad, than it is that he who has the small pOx
is sound on one side and unsOund on the other.
Whatever the Republican party may be in
Ohio. it is a coward and a hypocrte in this
State 1t is 4 coward in the presence of both
Rum and Slavery. 1t is hyPoeritc;-for its
agents are going up and down the State to per
suade the friends Of Temperance that Edwin d.
Morgan is worthy Of their votes But that he
alone of all the Senators dOdged the vote on the
PrOhibit0ry Law Is notorious. Moreover, had
he been friendly to such law, the Republican
party would not have so dared 10 defy the Rum
interest as TO put him in nomination Il Is 4
hypocrite-fOr it is laboring to cheat the color
ed people into the belief, that the Republican
party will give to them the Right Of Suffrage
But the party that refuses 10 protect cOlOred
men in their right 10 their bodies, will never
give them the Right of Suffrage.
With great regard, your friend,
GERRfT SMITH.

Tho Gen. Lnno and Jenkins Affair


st. Louis, June 3.-lho fact that Gains
Jenkins Of Lawrence was killed by James II.
Lane on Friday last has already been report
ed by the telegraph. The particulars of the
horrible affair, as we learn from a gentleman
who left the territory on Saturday morning,
are MS follows:--
There was dispute between Lane and
Jenkins concerning valuable land claim
lying in close proximity to Lawrence. This
dispute cngendered a cordial hatred, which
extended to the private relations of the
parties. Some weeks ago LANES family ar
rived in Kansas, and Lane took them upon
the contested claim,-the suit concerning the
title being still before the proper tribunal.
This action on the part of Lane excited Jcn-
kins, but nothing passed between them till
Friday, the 4th inst. On this day Jenkins
informed Zane that he intended drawing
some water from the well on the claim. Lane
told him to refrain, but Jenkins paid no at
tention TO the caution and made his appear
ance near the claim during the day. lie was
provided with gun and ark axe and was
accompanied by three companions. As he
approached ,he laid down his gun and took
up the axe 70 knock the chain from the lock
by which IL was fastened. As he stepped
forward 4svrr upTczrrdi IN IT front OF the house
armed with loaded shotgun. Jenkins gave
a look of defiance at his enemy, and In the
next moment fell to the carth-a corpse
having received an immense charge of buck
shot in his breast.
IA Jenkins fell one of his friends fred
three times at Gen. Lane, one ball missing
him, another grazing his forehead, and the
third burying itself in the calf of his leg.
bringing him to the ground. The body of

taken into custody. Jenkins bore an exoell-
ent character, and his loss will be deeply re-
grctted.' II is prt per to state that Gen. Lane
claims that he was fully justified in shooting
down his Adjutnnt-general-f strargc as i
may seem, such Jeskins was,>=and asserts
that he can establish his justification before
he courts Of his country.
