mems of work, executed upon Roymonds s
Family Sesoing Aaohins, which would COM
pare iaverably with any work ever exhibi-

SrBscRIBE-How often do we hear men
excuse themselves. from subscribing to a

no time 10 read. When we hear a man
thus excise himself, we conclude that he
has never found time 10 confer any substan-
tial advantage either upon his family, his

thus express himseIf,is .ruIy humiliating, and
we can form no other opinion than that

Fieudisb murder in Kansas.

The Lawrence Republican of the l4th
inst, gives the following account of a iend-
ish outrage committed on an Anti-slavery
family in Kansas by gang of kidnappers
and horse-thisVes.
On last Friday night, about midnight, the
house of Mr.. Joseph Gardner-one of the
most respected citizens in this county, liv-
ing on Washington creek-was attacked by
a gang of armed assassins, who attempted to
enter the house and murder its inmates
Mr.. Gardner and his family bravely defend
ed themselves, and colored man working
for Mr.. Gardner, named Napoleon Simpson,
going to the door during the attack, was ia
tally wounded, so that he died in less than
an hour. Volley after volley was fred in at
the windows, and it was only by amiracle
that more of the inmates were not murdered.
Mr.. Gardner is a quiet man, very highly es-
teemed by the community at large, and
knows Of no cause Of enmity against him,
except that he is radical Anti-Slavery man
and never betrays the fleeing fugitive. It is
supposed that the attack must have been
made by a gang of wretches who are prowl-
ing about the Territory, stealing horses, kid
mapping colored people, and committing like
crimes.

EDIToR or THE LEADER IL write merely to
say that have been so fortunate as to procure
the insertion in one Of the annual appropriation
bills the sum Of ten thousand dollars for the
repair Of the piers and preservation of the
Beacon Light, at the harbor Of Cleveland.
This, and an appropriation Of FIVE thousand
dollars for the same object at Fairport, con-
stitute all the appropriations at this session
for the repair of the Lake Harbors, so far as
! now recolleet.
It has been impossible to secure the atten-
tion Of Congress to the pressing necessities Of
the whOle range Of the Lakes for the inn
prOvemeht and repair of the old, and the
opening of new harbors for the facilitating
and protection of commerce The President
his Cabinet and the party of which they are
the head, have too much needed the public
mOney,tO aid in prepetuatng their destructive
rule, to yield anything to the necessities of
that people, whose pockets they are picking
in order to keep them in position to continue
their process Of plunder.
