KANSAS NEWS.

We hoped that Kansas peace WAS per-
manent. but it seems the reverse is the case
III another column will be found a batch Of
teleoraphic news--taken from a source not
at all reliable, as it comes from those who
lay all to the charge Of free State men, no
difference what happens-just as the dem
agoeues at home are blaming this tempo
rary panic to the election of Lincoln We
think it VIII be found that the Niger is
not at the bottom Of these late disturb
ances. Kansas is in state Of semi-star-
yation. Ter people have neither bread nor
money. Their lands Belonging to the
United States are coming into market, ard
will he soon offered at public sale. They
have occupied these for years; in many
cases valuable improvements have been
made, and in all cases, the "claima is look
ed upon as home. knowing their inabil-
ity, owing to an entire failure Of the crops,
to secure by purchase the places that they
have occupied and cultivated, they have
made extraordinary exertions to get q post
poncment of the sales They say, properly
enough, that the amount Of money which
these lands will bring, is, though everything
to them, trifing matter to the govern
ment, and that if the postponement IS not
made, they viii lose their homes, the fruit
Of years of toll, and be turned out to be-
Gin elsewhere anew, while their bittercst
enemies ia Missouri viii be installed, le-
gaIly to be sure, in the cabins from which
they have been driven forth. Their efforts
to make the authorities at Washington
Weld to their wishes have been wholly I'M
awaiting. With that insane obstiaancy and
wrong-headadnes witch has distinguished
Mr.. Buchanan's treatment Of Kansas affairs,
he turns aside from their petitions and bids
the sales 90 on. His obduracy is bar5ar-
Gus and indefensible; they have produced
in the country a state Of feeling that is al
ready manifesting itself in deeds Of violence
Pinehed BY famine, goaded BY the certainty
that their homes must be snatched away
from them, and that after all their trials
and sufferings they must give up the con-
test, they have been again hurried, we know
not how, into the strife which all men
hoped had passed. A few days viii put
us in possession Of all the facts.

RELIEF MEASURES.

The Banks Of N. Y. City, with several
Of the heaviest Banks Of that State and
New England, also of Philadelphia, have
formed continuation upon q common cap
ital Of hundred millions, twenty millions
thereof in specie. in view Of meeting the
crisis and arresting it by m unlimited ex-
pansion. They are promised assistance
from England, it being well understood
that crisis in this country produces cor
responding effects There consequently, the
necessity of mutual work OF the kind
proposed The design is to crush out at
once this secession movement South, by
pressing the commercial interests into CO.
operation with the new financial comblna-
ton. Southern stocks and banks and cot
ton and niggers are TO be left to lsle care
Of themselves until they learn better man
ners and cease to threaten reputation, Sc
cession and revolution. Under this mann
moth management, Cotton will cease to be
king; the capital and energies Of the east

the constitution and government has never

MEssAGE.--Prcsident Buchauan's mes
sage is reported ready and will be out in a
few days. The President has trouble III
his family; it Is understood he will say in
his message that, though the South has
just cause for complaint against the North
for electing a sectional President, such as
he has been, and managing their own in
situations in their own way, subject only to
the constitution, yet no stat. is justified in
seeding or performing any revolutionary
gyrations until every constitutional measure
ofredress has been exhausted; nor has any
state iigl to commit acts having the ef-
feel to preeipitate other states into disunion.
He viii eyade Southern censure by dealing
thunder towards the North; and by giving
the South much praise, and praising the
North never a bit, he will keep on good
terms with the democracy--which party
once had Jackson but have now only a
Buchansnl The degeneracy is without a
parallel.

MINORITY AND SECTIONAL PRESIDENTS

Much is said just now ofminority Presi-
dents. John @. Adams did not receive a
third Of the votes cast, but was elected
Polk had not majority Of all the votes
cast by 10000, but was elected. General
Taylor was also minority President, by
Isl 900. The united vote Of Fremont
and Fillmore was 2,2l6,221, while Buchan-
mans vote was only l,s38,2lo, 50 that Blu
chanan had not q m oority Of all the votes
cast in sc, by 37S,o11, Lincoln's minor
itv vote will be about that of Buchanan's
or not so much. Lincoln has received
more votes than any President ever receis-
ed he received more votes in New York
and Pennsylvania than were cast for Brock
inridge in the whole Union; also more
than were cast for Bel; also, more votes
in the Union than were east for Douglas.
The two special "Ndtional Candidates,
Breckenridge and Bell, were scarcely known
by their votes in the northern States, and
Lincoln received as many votes in the
South as either did in he Noab. Nine
out Of ten Of sll the votes cast for Douglas
were east for him in the northern States,

war Of extrems terocity on the law, abiding
citizens Of Southern Kansas, in thecounties
Of Linn ana Bourbon. Their arms arrived
by the Wagon load form near Mound CITY,
about a month since, in boxes marked as
donations for the Kansas sufferers. Theyl
