have beheaded James l., the autocrat Of
Kansas, a tyrant. equally destitute oftruth
and moral principle; and his followers
arenow bowling on the track Of his exc
cutioners, bent upon killing or banish-
ing every one Of them. They may sue
coed in consigning some to their politi-
cal graves. and in compelling others to
take refuge in the obscure walks Of private
life; but with all this, they cannot restore
the defunct Kings head upon his shoul-

may hang on to the public teat for brief
