KANzAs The Lawrence Repuoiacan states
that the great source of anxiety to the settlers
now is the unexpected early sale Of tho lands or
dered by the President The President has 6xed
the sale at the earliest day possible under the
law. It has been common II allow months and
sometimes yesrs to pass, in order to give the
settlers chance to make their payments out of
the products OF the soil. But harder rule is
adopted towards Kanzas. The Republican APP
pesls to capitalists at the East to come to the
rescue of the squatters, and furnish them with
capital sufficient to enable them to hold their
claims The land must not only be paid for in
July, but the payments must be made in gold or
iad warrants. aud. added to the enormous inter
est that must be paid on money, will be the ex-
action of heavy premtnm for the gold. 1t is
believed that great many ella ms will pass from
the hands of the settlers to the spectators, in
consequences Of the indecent haste Of the Presi
dent.
Just prior to the adjournment Of the Kanzas
Constitutional Convention, Judge Conway, the
President, stated in reply TO a newspaper para
s-aph, alleging that Gen. Lane was only elected
President Of the Convention on condition that he
would resign, that the General was the first choice
OF the Convention, and that he was elected, to
the best of h,s knowledge and belief. without any
condition whatever, expressed or implied The

think OF dismissing case that has been in

with murder, and that charge has been sus-
tanned by the oath of no less than dozen
