NAV be saved without harm to Slavery and its
constitutional guarantees" At home and by
day, they shout and cheer for conservative"
ideas, and their votes last Fall helped elect
Austin A. King and William A. Hall TO Con-
gress, just as they would have voted, if resident
here. for lioratio Seymour, or would vote TINS
Fall if living in Pennsylvania, for George w.
Woodward. And, having 'wiped out the Adolf
ton hole" they have dismounted from their
faded steeds brushed OIL the dust of travel, and
are today quietly moving about their farms,
apparently the most astouishcd men in all Mis-
souri, ut the stirring news from Lawrence. Such

Conservative" party which nov has Missouri
in It's clutches, and has just executed the clever
dodge Of preserving Slavery from immediate
destruction by passing an ordinance which pro-
lcsses TO abolish it in 1870, but does just the
other thing. Gov. Gamble is the Respectable
fgure-head of this party; and it is his influence
which has prevailed at Washington in stripping
the hated Radicals of power; but the old
Border Ruffian" crew contribute the physi-
cal and much of the numerical strength OF the
party, and their spirit is its animaiing SOUL
They have gained the asccndcncy by fraud and
Misrepresentation they will not always re-

of Missouri and Kansas is entirely in "Conser-

Blunt, &C., were recently stripped OF their COM

move was intended To conciliate, win over and
pacify the Constitutional, Savery-lovingmd-

termed reasonable by their hate and dread
of Abolition The butchery at Lawrence Is
the firs, ripe fruit of this rcconciling policy.
