What kind and considerate Governor
this Territory is blessed with just at pres
ent! With what kind and almost maternal
solicitude he watches over the ignorant and
deluded creatures composing the People of
Kansas. Knowing their inability to gov
ern themselves he travels out of his way,
aud even violates the law, to provide suita-
BILE officers for the administration of the af-
fairs of the several counties; and when in
their ignorance and viciousness the people
elect dangerous persons to Office he very
properly refuses to commission them
To be sure, he has no right to do these
things, but then he has the posOer, and is
willing, s'Jackson-ike," to take the respon
sibility in order to prevent the anarchy and
confusion which would naturally result
from the attempt of the people at selfgov-
ernment. We are sorry to perceive. how
ever, that the deluded creatures whom the
Executive has taken under his charge are
exceedingly ungrateful. and do not appre-
ciate his efforts in their behalf. But we
hope, however, that the Governor viii not
heed their murmuring, but viii tighten the
reins on them. We have heard enough OF
this seuseless cry of the fright of the peo-
pie to rule" One stern, strong man will
make consolidated Government which the
sans culozes cannot overthrow. and which
will keep them in proper snbjection. Fous
Verrons.

Tom Corwin on White Labor.

But don't understand me to mean that I

slave labor into competition with the whites,
it degrades the latter. I believe the nigger

let alone. That is. if you permit the nigger

for it is one of the unalterable laws of God

be no slave labor where the white man can

Tha Atlantic Te1egraph.

The whole world has had its time of re-
ioicing over the success of the undertaking
of laying the Ocean Telegraph Cable. In
Kansas we were too much occupied by the
operation of killing Leeompton to pay
much attention to aught else. There is a
fear that after all the cable will be failure
for telegraph purposes, although signals
were kept up between the two ships laying
the cable, all the way across the ocean
However this may be, the event loses none
of its importance. A telegraph cable has
been laid, and sooner or later the electric
current will flash across it, and the two
continents of the world be brought in such
close proximity that the heartbeat of the
one will be answered by the heartbeat of
the other. The same thought that quickens
the blood in the veins of one nation. will
send its thrilling impulses bounding through
the hearts of all nations. We must, as it
were, become a brotherhood of nations;
thinking the same thought at the same time.
Our wide. differences will at once appear
wider, from the immediate contrast; and
the effect will be that compromise and ap-
Proclamation viii begin to take place. All
extreme opinions will become moderated
Individual opinion viii have to lay down
its sceptre of dominion, and yield to the
sway of omnipotent public opinion. The
thought of all will become the thought of
each. Before any one will have time to
mature an individual opinion the partial
opinions of the thinking world will flash
upon him with the lightning's speed, mould
ing that opinion into something more than,
and far different from his own, so that when
he comes to speak or write it is not for
himself alone that he speaks or writes.-
He merely articuiates what thousands of
others have dictated to him. Even the
gifted orator, when he feels the most in
spired, will give utterance to but com
mon sentiment.
In view of this grandest achievement of
this or any other age, who viii envy the
times thatare gone--the days of our fathers
steady habits and slow motions? 1t is not
wise. The age demands of US something
besides regrets. New duties and response
bilities are before us, demanding our atten-
ton and stimulating us to activity. We
must heed the circumstances around US,
or be content forever to remain laggards in
the race.

A Sensible View of the Republican
PARTY,

The Hon. John G. Breckinridge. Vice
President of the United States, lately made
a stump speech at some obscure place IN
Kentucky, intended to bear on the election
which is about to take place in that State.
1t was not perhaps quite in keeping with
the dignity of his position to make stump
speech at all; but it is creditable to him
that he uttered more truth on the occasion
than usually falls from the lips of DEM
ocratic orator. He appreciates the position
and strength of the Republican party, as
may be seen by the following extracts from
his speech:
'.The Republican party said he, sis
the strongest organization in the Uuion, nm
less the Democratic party is stronger. 1t is
the only great living vital organization that
has OF can withstand the Democratic party.
1t is powerful. compact, hopeful or
ganization. = Republicans don't mean
to change their name or their issues they
are too strong, too powerful, loo confident
for that, and yet you are invited by some
Kentuckians to go in with them and form a
Peoples party, to break down this great
dominant party. Don't dePreciate
the strength of the Republican party. Its
principles are deeper and broader, and its
purposes more resolute than anything on
Che surface would indicate. Don't under
rate their power

The Farm:

A POCKET MASUAL OF PRAcTICAL AGRICULTURE
or How to Cultivate all the Field Crops. EN-
braeing an Exposition of the Nature and Ac-
ton of soils and Manules; the Principles of Ro-
fation in Cropping; Directions for Irrigation,
Draining, Subsoiling, Fencing, Planting Hedg-
es, etc.; Descriptions of Improved Agricultural
Implements; Instructions in Che Cultivation ol
the various Farm Crops; How TO Plant and Gull
tiyate Orchards, etc With a most valuable Es-
say on Farm Management. BY the author OF
s.iow to Behave 'EHow to do Business" "The
Garden" etc. New York: Fowler Wells
1858 Price, postpaid, in paper, 80 cents; in
muslin, so cents.]
To the readers of 'eThe Garden it is
necessary only to say that this excellent lit
tie farm-book is by the same author, and is
fully equal in value to that popular manu-
al. 1t treats in clear, concise, and mat
ter-of-fact way of both the theory and the
practice of agriculture. 1t tells you how
to cultivate all the common field crops, and
what is better, gives you the principles
which underlie all the practical operations
of cultivation, SO that you can use and
modify any practical directions given with
a full understanding of what you are about
1t gives you not only the show" but the
'.why'' of farming. The knowledge which
one will get from it may make difference
of hundreds of dollars in farmers income
in single season. No farmer, and espe-
cially no young farmer, can well afford to
be without it. So much valuable informa-
ton for SO little money we venture to say
can be found nowhere else. The essay on
farm management. by j. J. Thomas, here
reprinted by permission of the author, is
alone well worth the price of the book. 1t
ia adapted to all classes of people who are
interested in rural affairs, and to all sec
tons of the country.
The series of four 'sRural Hand Books
to which this belongs House, -
s'The Garden" '.Tbe Farm and s.Do-
mestic Animals" will be furnished to sub
seribers ordering them all at the same time

Francis P. Blair received four hundred
votes more in the city of st. Louis, at the
recent election in which he was defeated,
than on the occasion of his election tEo
years ago. This does not indicate any fall
ing off in the Free Soil and Emancipation
sentiment of that city. The Democracy
have largely increased their vote, in some
nanner-the Democrat says by fraudulent

The First Gun and the Last Gun.

The First Gun and the Last Gun.
To the doubling Thomases, whose policy
of neutrality gave the administration plu.
rality triumph in st. Louis, we commend
the following extract from the special cor
respondence of the New York Herald:
WAsHINerox, August 4.-NeEer, perhaps except
at Presidential election, has there been more anx
iety at Washington than to hear the result OF the
election in Missouri. When the news came to-day
that Barret had defeated Blair, the chief officers
OF the government might be running about to
congratulate each other. Not only is it deemed
important on account of Blair's position an
anfi-slaverv anti-administrution candidate, but
because it is the first gun of the political contest
just commencing.
The first gun of the political eontestl
Well, be it so! To the first gun they are
welcome, and to all the advantage it may
give them; but if we don't fire the last gun,
and that over the bows of the dismantled,
surrendered administration ship, then may
we be visited with unending dishonor and
reproach. In our Revolution the British
fred the first gun, but it was the American
army that fired the last gun. So will it be
with those who, by foreign force and foreign
treasure, seek TO perpetuate slavery misrule
and federal supremacy over the politics of
Missouri. The first gun is theirs the last
gan will be ours.-Miss0uri Democrat.
