The Democratic party il now trying to
raise great hubbub about the crime of old
Brown. La view Of this it is we'll to glance
at the treatment of the border rufRan crimi-
mails, and Democratic leaders in Kansas.
S. w. Clark murdered man named Bar
Der by shooting him in the back. For this
practical illustration of Modern Democracy,
he was made Purssr in the Navy!
james Gardner, who co-opcrated with
Clark in the murder Of Barber, was appoint
ed Postmaster at Lawrence
Jones headed the mob which sacked Law
renee. He Was paid of with q lucrative Of
fee 10 New Mexico.
Frederick Emery, one Of the murderers Of
PHILIPPE, at Leavenworth, was compensated
by the appointment Of Receiver Of the Land
Office at Ogden
j. s. Murphy, who helped in the assassina-
ton Of Phillips, and who was no'oriously
one Of the gang by whom Hoppe was muir
dered, was made Agent for the Pottawatto-
mie Indians
Rush Elnore, who made persevering ef-
fort TO assassinate j. III. Kagi, was elevated
to the office OF q. S. District Judge!
Russell and Waddell furnished teams and
provisions to the Border RuH6ans, who inva-
ded Kansas and seized the ballot boxes in
1856. For this they have been given inn
mense contracts by the Government.
Other assassins and rufians have been the
recipients Of Executive favors. Contrast
with these instances the stern disapprobation,
by the Republicans, of Browns mad out
break, and say which party has done the most
to encourage violence
|. Suoh 10 : part Of the Kansas record of the
Democratic party, just let man commit
murder, burn property, destroy ballot boxes
in behalf Of slavery extension, and On ONCE
seems to await him at the hands of the Ma
tional Democratic Administration.

IFrom the Alta California, Sept. a. ]
a suggestive PYacard.

Yesterday, Senator Gwinn and Charles
L. Scott left on the steamer John L. Stevens
for the Atlantic States. An immense crowd
had gathered upon the wharf, under the i'm
preston that some demonstration of hatred
for tho two departing congressman would
be made by the multitude; but nothing 90
Cured TO disturb the peace. II was perhaps
one OF the most quiet and orderly steamer
days ever witnessed in this city. There was
no shouting nor loud boisterous mirth there
was no pelting OF oranges and apples between
those on tho wharf and those on the steamer.
The very newsboys and peanut vendors were
quoted. The only thing which caught the
eye ~ unusual, and awakened . train OF
thought on the occasion, Was an immense
placard on canvas, six feet long by three
widB, wreEthed In mourning, With Lac pho
tograph of the lamented Senator, David G.
Broderick, in the centre, and the following
words in unmistakable characters inscribed
above the picture: "The will of the People
May the murderers Of David 9. Broderick
never return to the State OF California, !" and
beneath the picture were the memorable
words Of the departed Senator: 81 am killed
because Was opposed 10 the extension Of
slavery and . corrupt Administration" This
placard was placsd in conspicuous position
near the gateway ct the entrance OF the
wharf, and none who passed could fail to
notice It. What bitter parting salute that
placard, with its portrait and inscription,
must have been to the hOnordblss who we're
about returning to Washington to represent
the people Of California, and gaze npon the
vacant chair Of him, ssfhs nobIsst Roman Of
thens ALL"

fray.
The secret Of the late shooting OF the
young clerk, D. P. Shields, by Edwards, is
~ follows:
The parties are all from Keokuk. Shields,
when quite young, was engaged to young
lady, but not being able to marry her &c soon
- desired, the engagement was broken. and
she ut once accepted the offer OF Edwards.
and was married to him. They, however.
did not live happily, and finally separated
She is now in this city, under the protection
OF one OF our most respectable merchants.
and is endeavoring to get divorce from her
husband. She is still In love with Shields,
and We suppose when once rid of her hus.
band will marry him. Mr.. Shields has recoe-
nised the improperly OF visiting her under
the circumstances, though he doubtless en-
tertains strong affection for her.
Edwards, since the separation, has. OF
course, attributed his misery to Shields. and
has long entertained the purpose of killing
him. His elaboration and malice are ex.
hibited in the strongest colors in the circum-
stances OF the shooting on Monday evening
That Shields escaped with his life il due to
the merest chance. The villain pulled the
trigger on him in cold blood. How he missed
the vital parts is indeed q wonder.-fSt.
