Intended to KIN Them.


At the time the Lecompton Constitution
was sent to Congress, Old John Brown, Jim
Lane, Redpath, Phillips and other restless
spirits in Kansas, formed a conspiracy to kill
off all the officers elected under the Lecomp-
ton Constitution, in case that instrument
should be adopted A Republican paper in
Kansas, the Herald of Freedom, is RESPONSE
bic for this statement. 1t says:
"Then was organized the secret, oath bound
league. the object of which was to murder,
in cold blood every officer elected under the
LecOmpton Constitution, be he free State
man or otherwise. The password to that Sc
cret organization was LANE" The whole
plan of assassination, of relays of horses for
the executioners, DC, are in the possession of
good men in Lawrence, and have been for a
long period. But there was peaceful ad-
lustment of all these matters, because Con-
gress did not give legal sanction to the Le-
compton swindle."
Such men of course are traitors and deserve
the traitors doom. One of them has come to
the end which all should arrive at, if they
continue their courses To oppose slavery is
no crime, but to conspire against the laws of
the land in order TO overthrow it is an Of
iense of the blacklist character. The peace
Of society and the stability Of all G Government.
depend upon the strict obedience of the peo
pie to the general will, as expressed in the
laws of the country. Abstract notions OF
right cannot be safely carried out. If every
individual citizen were to judge for himself
of the fitness of things and to refuse his ac-
| quieseence in such enactments as did not har-
monize with his own peculiar sentiments re =
garding justice and morality, there would be
everlasting anarchy and confusion in all the
rami6cations of society and the whole coun-
try would be convulsedin continual uproar.
| 1t needs no argument to demonstrate that the
'law's collected wilP' must prevail over pri-
vate and individual opinion, in order to en-
sure a proper administration of human affairs.
Errors may be committed, wrongs may be
perpetrated, but they must be remedied by
the law, if they are to be safely remedied.
Old Brown may have thought that he was
right, but an honest error of opinion, when it
/ AN~NS hAeh W NhA"bHOh Ano peace vi DIS
country, must be treated with the same rigor
as deliberate evil intention. Browns in
stincts may have all been opposed to slavery,
but, to follow those instincts in an illegiti-
mate way, was to war against much that was
! good-the Union of the States and the gener
al good of the Nation. Until such time al
Revolution is absolutely necessary to rescu,
the Rights of Man from the grasp Of tyrants
until such time as there is no remedy by th,
law for certain great evils complained of
there is no justification for disobedience to
any law, however tyrannical or unjust. And,
admitting that slavery were the worst of all
evils in the world, to eradicate it by any
other means than is accordant with the prin.
eiples upon which our Government is estab.
lished, would be to commit great crime
against the happiness Of mankind.

nounces that the large cotton factory, known
as the Pemberton Mills, in that city, fell To-
day with a terrible crash, burying in its ruins
nearly six hundred operatives, mostly girls
from fifteen to twenty-years Of age. 1t is
supposed that from two hundred to three hum
bred have been killed and many others dread

have already been taken out of the ruins, and
at the date Of our despatch it was impossible

UNION MEEr1Ne.-The Troy papers give
glowing accounts of the Union meeting held
there. The building was crowded to So .aioca-
tion; bon6res blazed in the streets, and
genuine enthusiasm actu.ted everybody.
General Wool upon taking the chair, said he
was there not as a partisan, but a national
conservative. He knew but one interest. and
that of the entire country ; and had but one
aim-that was to preserve the night of every
citizen. He had no apprehension for tie Union.
Its dissolution can never take place til the
whole country has been laid waste. Let US
heal this wound which has been inflicted by
Brown, and show the South that while we
deprecate the outrage at Harper's Ferry, We
stand prepared to sustain the South and
North in the constitutional rights guaranteed
to them by the constitution. With these
brief remarks he thanked the audience. AT.
ter the appointment OF the usual officers. an
eloquent letter from Hon. Edward Everette
was read, in which he regarded the meeting
as extraordinarily important, as representing
the sentiments OF a large interior town. The
resolutions, which are eminently patriotic
were adopted by reclamation.

SOUTHERN HOUSES IN New Yosx.- The
New York correspondent Of the Charleston
Courier writes:
Business men in this city are beginning to
range themselves according to their nation
alities. We have long had English, Scotch
and other houses. Now we are about having
real Southern houses. This especially the
cause in dry goods trade. In one instance, at
least, there has been established a house
whose members are all men born, and most
of whom have their family living, at the
South. The concern is that of johnson
Shepherd & Saunders. 1t was formerly Chur-
chile, Johnson 4 Co, but the former being
the only Northern man in it, and he wishing
to retire, the other members found it good
opportunity to carry out their long desired
object of forming an exclusively Southern
house. Mr.. Johnson is a native OF North
Carolina, out now a resident of Columbia, S.
C and President Of the Exchange Bank at
that place, and Messrs. Shepherd and Saun-
ders are Virginians, the former having been
born in Fredericksburg. wheae his family are
now residing. W. A. Latta. a special partner
in the above house, is e resident of Yorkviile,

Nor ALL ROTTEN IN DENMARK.-U Under
this heading the Nashville Patriot, of the
4th INST, has the following:
Mr.. H. H. Haynes of this city, recently
purchased twenty-five negroes in Missouri,
and arriving In St. Lnnis with them, on bis
way home, he found the river blocked up with
ice and was forced either to remain there for
an endefnite period or bring the negroes
through the free State of Illinois. He adopt
ed the latter alternative, and took the Ohio
and Mississippi Railroad to sandoval, and
thence to Carlo by the Illinois Central. Mr..
Haynes states the conductors and other Off
Gals on both roads rendered him all the assis-
lance he required to bring the negroes
through, and that no effort whatever was
made to deprive him of his property or en-
5arrass his movements. He came over the
whole route with as little interference on the
part of tie people as he would encounter ia
going through the Mississippi, or any other
Southern States.

GET Us ALoNE.n-The sound sentiment
of the South seems to be embodied in the
following from the Petersburg (Va.l Intelli-
sencer:
set Us Mome.'-Such, says a contemporary,
is the simple brief, emphatic demand of the
South. 1t is all that is required ofthe North.
1t is a moderate appeal to common sense and
justice. If there is sufficient strength ia the
conservative feeling in the North, that de-
mand can be complied with willingly and
cheerfuIly. If there it not--there may be
uttered the equally simple, brief and en-
phatic determination-SWe will make YOU
let us alone, by having nothing to do with
you" Let the North be salts fed that in the
South there is no division of sentiment. Here
We are unanimous. The division must be
north of the Potomac. We rejoice to see
that Ne have strong friends there, who are
not afraid to stand up for the right.
Let " alone, means no John Brown and
his pixies, no underground railroad operations,
no incendiary documents to inlame the pas
sions of slaves "mini your OWE business,
and we will mind ours" Is not this a fair
demand
