We have failed to receive most of oul
Northern exchanges for the past month.
The Herald Of Freedom" and "Leaven-
worth Journal" have not arrived for three
weeks. The Lawrence Republican comes
regularly. Do the "Jsy- -Hawkers" know
the reason? We do not like to charge
any one with deliberately robbing the

Yes, Something's up" and we have
discoved where it is, and in due time
shall take occasion to submit the facts to
the public; aud if the offence is repeated,
to Grand Jury. For year past sys-
TEN Of espionage has been carried on
through thepost offices in southern Kansas,
and the mails have been Jay-Hawked,
probably, nearly as often as individuals
The General Mail Agent of Kansas, E. R,
SAITH, Esq, of Wyandott, has kindly
lent US his aid in the premises, and he
promises to bring every postmaster on
the route, 10 summary justice, who shall
allow any further interference with the
Herald Of Freedom.
We are conscious that some of those
postmasters viii wish to read picture Of
themselves, as exhibited in imaginative
characters in the forthcoming JAY-HAwK-
ER, but we cannot afford to furnish them
for less than our published rates.
Our subscribers will DO us the favor to
advise US at once of any failure to receive
our paper regularly, with any information
which they may come in possession of,
in regard to its being seen in the hands
of those who are not subscribers, and we
will investigate the matter at once, and
bring the offenders to speedy justice.

To Claimantx

The Commissioners to audit claims,
have appointed Col. SPENCER, LONG.
WORTH Powers and GUILFoRD DUDLEY,
Esps, clerks of their board, and CALEB S.
PRATT, of Lawrence, Central Clerk, to
whom communications can be addressed.
G. F. WARREN has beer appointed Ser
geant-at-Arms, and JOHN KENDALL, Bal
liff. Claimants must remember that the
labor of the commission will close on the
first Of July, that ecsvy claim must be rc.
proven before this commission, and that
there is no time to lose in getting cases
ready for their action. We would eau
tion parties against employing attorneys,
and giving away large part, or any con-
siderable part Of their claims, in order to
get them attended to before the Commits
sioners. The committee appointed at the
Sufferers Convention" last fall, have
taken this matter into consideration, and
have engaged an attorney to attend to all
the claims, by which he viii be able to
do so at greatly reduced cost. By hav.
ing general charge of all the claims, he
is better enabled to give his entire atten-
ton to the subject and to do better JUS
tice to all parties.

Repor,. No, Cheering.

We published last week the result of
the first county election held in this Ter
ritory, since the organization among us of
the Democratic and Republican parties.
The result is just what was expected, ard
Just what we firmly believe will be the
case in three-fourths of the counties Of
this Territory, unless party tactics are i'm
mediately changed; not that the people
sympathize with the Democratic party,
but they utterly despise those who have
forced themselves into the position Of
leaders in the Republican party. We have
entered our protest, time and time again,
agains. the organization of the Republican
party until Kansas was State, and have
begged, importuned, and reasoned with the
advocates of the other policy until we were
wearied with the effort, but all to no
purpose. "Rule or ruin" was their motto,
and the latter is before them. With the
exception of Douglas, Shawnee, and prob
ably Breckenridge counties, we do not
believe there is hardly another county in
Kansas which will elect Republican
ticket with Jim Lane, Vaughan, Conway,
Thacher, and Montgomery in the lead.
If we wished to disgrace the Republican
party, and damn it eternaHy, we could
employ no more successful instrumentality
than allow these men to direct it. Again
and again We enter our solemn warning
against the policy which is being pursued,
and again we say to Republicans in the
States, that the programme must be
changed Immediately or Kansas will be a
Democratic State with Democratic Sena-
tors and Representatives in Congress. This
charging the staunchest Anti Slavery men
in Kansas, and those who have borne the
flag of freedom aloft in the darkest hour
of her history, with being Democrats,
because they will not sustain murderers,
bullies, and dictators for office, and re-
ceive to their embraces persons who came
here to organize the Democratic party, and
whose every effort has been to bring Re-
publicanism into disrepute, is only tending
to accomplish what they pretend most to
deprecate.

The Jay.Havker


There are now nearly two hundred
manuscript pages ready for the press, of
this thrillingly interesting work. We delay
the commencement of its publication a
short time, until it is completed, and in
order that subscribers may have time to
send in their orders, and be able to COM
mence with the beginning of the tale. 1t
is work Of rare merit and artistic skill.
Legendary in its character, its compass
ranges from the ludicrous TO the sublime
and blends the beautiful and the terrible
with startling and unrivaled power. The
reader will feel inclined to alternately
laugh and weep, as he follows the author
in his mastery portrayal of the life-like,
mirth moving, and melancholy scenes
with which the story abounds. Even the
JAY -Hawkers will pay it the tribute of a
broad grin, as its incidents revive in their
minds recollections of past events. A vein
of pleasantly, peculiar to the author, runs
through and pervades the body of the
work. For variety of incident and power
of delineation, the work is almost without
a rival. 1t is the lone star of Kansas
literature, and is destined to shine forever.
We bespeak for it an extensive and world
wide popularity.
Measures are now being taken to have
the work dramatized, and brought out
upon the stage.

~We learn with great pleasure III

OF We learn with great pleasure that
our esteemed friend, RICHARD G. WAIT
Esq, of this city, formerly of Dedham
Mass, has been commissioned by his Elk.
cellency, Gov. MEDARY, Notary Public
for the county of Douglas. Mr.. WAIT
has been engaged for many years in pub
lie life, is very correct in his business hab-
its, and as his age precludes him from en-.
gaging in active business life, we bespeak
for him share of the notarial business o.
this city.
Mr.. WAIT was, for many years, CLERK
of the City Council of Boston, and as such
became familiar with public life, and
learned to discharge its duties with
promptness and fidelity. He is a large
property holder in this city, a permanent
resident, yet rather retiring in his habits
We have sometimes thought that if he
was generally known to our people, it is
probable, in filling some of the many off,
ces in the city or county, they would give
him q place where he could serve the
people with his large experience.

Job Printing.

Those in want of job work in the shape
of handbills, circulars, certificates of town
stock, business cards, blanks of any kind,
bookwork, whether of pamphlets or the
largest class of books, should know that
better work can be done at the Herald Of
Freedom office, and in a more satisfactory
manner, than at any other Office in the
Territory. We added to the Office, dur
ing the winter, new press, designed ex-
pressly for card, label and circular work,
and recently have ordered another, de-
signed for the larger class of legal blanks,
posters, &c. We are also adding con-
stantly to our almost endless variety OF
type, such new letter as the ingenuity Of
the type manufacturer brings before the
public. We are now making arrange
ments to add book bindery, which we
hope to have in operation in few weeks,
and if the present encouragement continues
through the spring months, it is probable
we shall add stereotype foundry
Though desirous of retiring from business,
and determined to do so when the first
favorable opportunity to sell out occurs,
yet we are equally determined to keep up
good establishment while we remain
connected with the Office, and to defy all
competition west Of St. Louis.

Defeat Of Republioanisnsin wyandott
0r,vn.Ro Feb 23. 1859.

QUlNDAhO, rcu. -oi 1oVS.
G. ". BRowN, Esq.:-Yesterday was
held the special election for county Of
6cers in the new county Of Wyandott and
the ..gel-lorious Democracy" triumphed.
J. W. johnson, of Wyandott lawyer,
said to be well read, but of the most noted
incorporate and dissolute habits, was
elected Probate Judge by 38 majority
over Chas. Chadwick, Esq. of this place,
a gentleman of fine legal attainments and
unquestioned integrity.
Causes are followed by effects, in the
political no less than in the physical world,
and this result is perfectly legitimate
sequence to the causes which produced it.
The country for more than year past
has been deeply agitated by the outrages
committed by bands of outlaws and rob-
bers in Southern Kansas, who have been
guilty of almost every crime known to our
laws. The people prayed for and demanded
statutory enactments for their protection,
and at last obtained what they demanded,
and as soon as there seemed to be likeli-
hood of Montgomery and others, who
have been engaged in the perpetration of
these crimes, being brought to punishment,
lol the Legislature throws over them the
projection of the amnesty Law" When
Republican Legislatures openly wink at
the violation of United States laws, and
spend their time in legislating for their
own interests and the interests of certain
localities, loosing sight of and entirely
ignoring the rights and interests of the
people at large, whose servants they are;
when men who head street mobs, shoot
down unarmed Free State men, food the
Republican press at home and abroad with
libellous letters, concerning the purest and
best men the Free State party of Kansas
has ever known; when such men assume
to speak for and direct the movements of
the Republican party, is it to be wondered
at that Just such Democratic victories as
we have witnessed in this county, should
happen? Is it not enough to paralyze
the hopes and exertions of the honest
Republicans of the Territory?
1t is little suggestive that this result
followed so closely upon the issue from a
prominent Free State and Republican
press, of long article lauding james
Montgomery as hero and patriot purer
and better than is known in the history of
ancient or modern times. In plain Eng
lish, if such politicians as Jim Lane, Con-
way & Co., and such fanatical prints as
the Leavenworth Times and Lawrence Re
publican continue to scandalize and bring
into disrepute the good name of the Repub-
lican party, its hopes of success, of life
even, will be lost beyond redemption.
