here let US remember that this enormous
debt has been more than doubled by the

knew perfectly well the effect of paper

The writer in the Times claimed that,
if it was true that the country was almost
in a state Of bankruptcy, it was scandal

spends: care we to see public officer

to continue until all is lost. We love our

it is called patriotism to keep silence un-
der such circumstances, all we can say is,

Let not whisper break her Sleep
Winged odorS float upon her breath.
As perfumes ON the Indian deep.
Her coral lips, Just parted, keep
Entrance to gates OF pear! within
And rosy tiashes gently creep
Upon her cheek-and 90 again.
Up from her bosom comes sigh.
Is it of passion or Of PAIN
Doth love upon her sad heart lie !?
Do languid dreams Cypress her brain !?
She signs. and sleeps, and signs again,
Her dropping lids in sweet repose,-

Or dew upon the summer rose
On sleep. sleep on in perfect grace.
May never dream disturb thy rest,
Or change the outline of thy face
Upon the snowy pillow pressed.
All Oreezes from the sweet southwest
Blow cool upon thy marble brow;
All angels guard thy virgin nest
And keep thee ever calm-as now.

Protection.

The Lawrence Tribune, true to the
hehests of its master, cries out against
Gov. Carney for wishing to protect the
border, and suddenly comes to the res
cue of "Old Halleck." whom i. has
delighted to scoff at in times past. II
also raises quite howl over the at
tempt to take men from the fields and
farms TO protect the Border. Lawrence
is garrisoned. protected with block
houses. and feels secure; and it comes
with bad grace from an editor in a
city upon which SO much has been ex-
pended TO secure its safety. to cry out
when other parts Of the State. not pro-
tec,ed, and upon which money and men
have not been expended. ask for SOME
security, thar the citizens may lie down
in peace and not be awakened by the
yell Of the bushwhackers or the burning
of their houses over their heads. The
unrest Of the border, the activity of the
guerri'las at all points, and the general
uneasiness and alarm fel; by the citi
Gems in all exposed places, is tie best
answer to the Tribune's TRADE against
the Governor and insincere eulogy of
Halleck. .r
Bat the question is not put BY the
Tribune on its true merits. 1t tries to
raise great dus. and then hide itself
and lis master in ii. But it won't do.
The reason assigned By Mr.. Lincoln for
no. accepting the two regiments prof
fered. was not that Kansas did not need
protection; not that labor was scarce
and hard to obtain; not that q repetition
OF the Lawrence massacre. in some
shape was no. possible. bu. simply and

to the measure, tecouse Il uoula giire
