Thaeher and Billy Parsons.

Our neighbor, of the RAT OFFICE,
gives US the benefit of column notice,
filed with falsehoods and false insinua-
tons, which are too low and base to re-
ceive notice from US. For a year and a
half past, the editor has been attending
to his own business" never saying word
about US, taking his representations as
truthful, nor does not design to NEEDLE
with our business unless we NEEDLE with
him. All we have to say is, if his fruit
full brain can invent any greater falsehooda
than those already published concerning
us, then he is at liberty to pitch in, to his
hearts content. But we would caution
him that all persons may not allow him
to SANDER them with the same freedom
he has US. Thacher, please remember
Even ladies have been known to resent
injuries when driven to the wall.
Mr.. Parsons, too, is entitled to our
warmest consideration for his very gentle
manly communication. If the report Of
gold at Pixies Peak was only sustained
BY the character of those who write arti-
cles of the kind alluded to, we should no,
think itworth while to even give the 9th.
er sids o hearing.

Just Cause for Complaint.

A letter from friend at Leroy, Coffey
county, makes the following statement to
which we invite the attention Of Mr.
SMITH, the United States Mail Agent, re-
siding at Wyandott -
"There is much complaint in this re-
gion, in consequence Of the irregularity Of
the mail. 1t has been three weeks since
a copy of your paper has found its way to
this Office. Our mail matter accumulates
at the Sac Agency so rapidly that every
few weeks we have to send private con.
veyance for it Often, for two weeks, We
do not get even letter."
We would merely state, for the bensf
Of our friends at Leroy, that we have ad
dressed q note to the o. s. Nail Agent
upon the subject of the complaint, ant
are in hopes measures will be taken a
once to give our friends relief, either b,
increasing the service, else ordering leat
horse to be employed, the first being de
cidedly preferable.

A Good Medical Journal.

"The College Journal of Medical Sci
encs," conducted by the Faculty of the
Eclectic College Of Medicine, at Cincin-
natl, O., is before US for November. Terms,
one dollar q year. This number which
is good sample for the year, contains 4s
pages. It's published monthly, and will
enter upon its fourth volume on the first
of January next. To the medical stu
dent, and the practitioner the Journal
must be invaluable, as it keeps its readers
posted in all that pertains to the progress
of the profession, new discoveries, etc.
Connected, as it is, with one Of the best
medical colleges in the Union, it cannot
be else than worthy of Liberal patronage.
We publish elsewhere an advertisement
for the College, also brief notice of the
College journal.

OF The Leavenworth Herald learns
from good authority, that the rumor of
the murder of g. w. Clarke is true! The
Herald also confirms the statement that
Martin White has been murdered. The
mark Of Cain was on these men. The
voice of BARBER's and BRowE's blood
cried from the ground for vengeance
For three years the law has been inopera-
tive, but fearful retribution has at last
overtaken these murderers, and probably
it is well that it is SO, though the manner
in which it was done can only awaken
anxiety in regard to the end of these fear
full times. When the assassin's knife is
brought into requisition, heaven only
knows who will fall victim, or what crimes
mems passions will desire, shall be atoned
for with life.

Piracy.


The Shawnee County Convention, COM
posed only of delegates from Topeka and
Brownville, called to select delegates to
represent that county in the great Free
State Convention held in Lawrence on the
10th inst, had under consideration, for q
long time, a resolution offered by Mr..
Atwood, one of the delegates, declaring
that that Convention was "the Republi.
can Convention of Shawnee county" 1t
is to be regretted that those men who are
50 DESTROYS to appear as Republicans, could
not have a party of their own to act in.
Suppose that, at every Free State Conven-
ton called in the different counties of this
Territory, some Democrat should spring
to his feet, and offer resolution declaring
that it was a Democratic Convention ?
Would not such q mover be Kissed out Of
the Convention ? And is there q man
who does not know that the Free State
party of Kansas embodies large number
of Democrats ? Though they may be
less than a majority of the whole number
of the Free State party, yet they are en-
titled to just as much respect and consid
Grafton as those who claim, par excellence
to be Republicans. If the Republicans
wish to organize party Of their own, we
have no objections but we will not con-
sent that they shall, pirate like, steal oul
craft, and run up black flag at the mas
head. Let us sail under true colors, un.
til the time comes when we agreed, at the
outset, to disorganize, and those who
cannot go with us until then, can do the
other thing, and leave u5.

The ModYA.

Last week we made point against the
radicals of the Territory, and particularly
against Thaeher, on account Of his defeat
in the great Convention which was called
to give prominence to the position Of our
RAT cotemporary. Instead of attempt
ing to weaken the force Of the blows
which the public directed against that
journal, it assails US personally. hoping
thereby to divert attention from its OWL
political tergiversations to ourself We
need only call attention to this fatt &c
show the reason for the base abuse heaped
upon US in the last number of that paper
Go in Thacher, but, again we caution YOU
against involving Others in our private
quarrels.
The Kansas herald of freedom., 1858-11-20

" Thaeher thinks it is none of our
business if he does cut down the wages Of
his workmsn, if they are satisfied. And
we presume he thinks it is none of our
business if he does insert q column Of
advertisements for FIVE dollars, though the
type setting alone, at the rates we pay,
would come to about two-thirds of that
amount and though it is two-thirds lower
than similar services could be procured al

ticn of the public from his RAT practices
