Medarv's Vetoes..

The vetoes of the Governor Of thatlpor-
ten of the people of Kansas who swear by
the bred Scott decision, betray the most
bitter partizan feeling ever exhibited in any
State or Territory. This fact appeared so
plainly, that all fair-minded Democrats,
both in the Legislature and out of it, ad
mitted the fact, and many said that he Me-
daryl made no professions to being the Gov
ernor of the people of Kansas, but only that
small minority ofIthem who styled them
selves Democrats dyed in the WOOL A
few examples will show this matter ia, its
true light. He getoed the bill prohibiting
slavery in Kansas, which was direct stab
at the Douglas Democrats. as they all voted
for it. He vetoed a bill to provide for the
election of an, assessor in Potawatomia coun-
ty., The people have no rightato elect their
officers, of course not-they must be APP
pointed by the Co.., He signed with great
alacrity a, bill changing the lines of Jack
son county, which change leaves said couu-
ty Democratic. He signed bill construct
ing a new county to accommodate, Junction
City, where his beloved son lives and edits
Democratic paper. The new Iicounty win
also be Democratic He retoeda bill chang
ing the county seat of Franklin county
from that pet Of the Democracy Minneofa,
to Ohio City, although both members Of
the Legislature were in favor Of it. and q
large majority Of the people of the county
petitioned for it. He cetoed bin locating
the county seat Of this county at the strong
est Republican town in the county at The
request. of two or three whisky STEPPED
Democrats. He signed bill locating the
couuty7seat of Wyandot county. without
vote of the people. at the solicitation of q
few federal ofice-holders. If the above vii
not suffice to show the partizan feelings o
the Gou,rnoro more can be added a l.s
What glorious privilege it is to be al
lowed to regulate our institutions in. gu,

Tha IItalian Question. !

The, London Morning Post. which has
the credit of being the organ of Lord Pal
merston, has an important editorial in its
issue of Feb. Sd. upon the policy of France
and England on The Italian question. II
says: 's
1--WE announced at the beginning of the
year that virtual alliance had been exist
ing between England and France for the
settlement of Italian affairs. We expressly
stated that the two Governments bound
themselves by no treaties, but that their
agreement was the result of the force of cir
cumstances and che dictation of public opin
ion. This alliance. every day drawn closer,
already begins to produce evident and tan
gible eoneeauences. L. is now formally de-
termiaed that no intervention shall take place
in Italy, and the people shall beleft to their
own devices; IL is therefore agreed that the
States of Central Italy, shall dispose OF them
selves. Fresh elections are to be held, and
the assemblies resulting from the popular
choice are to decree the annexation of their
constituents to the Sandman kingdom.
1.-The French troops are to be withdrawn
from Northern Italy and from Rome, at an
early opportunity. 1t is no secret chat Aus
tria. having listened to the Western alliance
and her own serious difficulties, has given
up all hopes of retrieving her position and
influence in Italy. and not only sheashs hel
sword, but puts it aside. An ate pit will
be made to induce her to grant reforms in
Venetis of which she is still'left mistress
The Post adds that, the stubbornHess o
the Pope bids fair to deprive him of the
~ hole of his femDOrali.ies sNaoles rroans
under heavier tyranny than ever! and the
cries Of Venice are loud enough 70 strike
our ears, however we may shut them. The
Italian question, then, being likely to take
still larger proportions, our best, safest and
most beuefeent policy is. that strict line o
duty by which this, time last year we NIGH
have prevented war and by which. we may
now guarantee the peace of Europe. Tha
line is-''no foreign Intervention, but Italy
for the Italians" asa

g Madison County and its Prospects"
Under this head, a, citizen of Madison
county penned an article, which by request
we published in The NEWS three weeks
since. Although satirical. yet the fact that
the author was citizen of that county
whose whole interest was there--we did not
suppose he would thrust a knife in his own
bosom But some one from that part has
discovered that the article in question con-
tanned fatal stab at. the county, and lam
poems as for it through the last Americas
Sentinel. The whole responsibility is thrown
upon us-7we are even charged with its au-
thorship. That is false, and we can prove
!. it, No one outside of Madison county had
ta hand in it, or wanted to have. As for
our indorsing it. "a MadisQBian'' might
with the same proprietys try to compel tue
editor Of the Sentinel to indorse the call fos

head of his editorial column last week. " -.

Douglas Pleurisy.


Was it pleurisy, or qingratitude or
fear to offend the South ? The Detroit i'd
versiser says sharply: ,saa o. sem Il
SIT was announced by telegraph, yester-
day, that Senator Douglas had prepared a
eusogy on Mr.. Broderick, to be delivered to-
day, but last night he was severely attacked
by pleurisy.' This 'pIeurisy' is a very
convenient refuge for Mr.: Douglas, 1t is
not the first time it has done, him . good
service. At, the opening of Congress it
saved him from the necessity of showing his
hand until he had taken full time to survey
rne field and decide what position he could
take with the most salty. Congress has
now been in session ten weeks and he has
been in his seat five or six weeks. But as
no day had been fixed upon for announcing
the death of his brave and generous hearted
friend, there was no sign Of return of his
disease. He seemed to have quite >recov-
cred from it. But when the time for. that
melancholy duty had been definitely settled.
and the eve of the day for the Acknowledgment
had arrived. he was suddenly seized with
the 'pleurisy as vielently as ever. lone
would have supposed that. he could have
found time in six weeks to pay a. passing
tribute TO one who had stood by him SO
faithfully. BUTT seems he could not. And
when the Senator was forced by public opin-
ion to paw the usual tribute to his memory
and he could no longer stave it off, bis con
.yenient friend. the pleurisv, came to his re
lief at the nick Of time. Mr.. Douglas is q
lucky man to have such friend since they
have murdered the best one be, ever had be-
