n SffA ME.


One of the most dsgracefuI of the acts which boyo
characterized the present Administrator in it's
orlet Dut unexampied career, is the appointment
OF Jim Lane to Brigadier- Generalship. and
capt Montgomery to a Colonelcy in the army
two as deep dyed scoundrels as ever went unbung
The murders and robberies committed bv thasa
fellows during the troubles in Kansas are known tn
the whole country, and have linked their namYs in
appropriate connection with the hoarv villain but
less fortunate John Brown. These men did all ;,,
their power to keep alive the bloody strife in Kan
sas and are personally responsible for large share
OF its atrocities. Lane murdered a Free State man
named JenEing-! He was arrested, but coutriyed ,
get clear BY his influence over men "a puiltv az
himself. His seat IN the Senate secured by
corruption uneXampled in the history of legislation
the votes OF members being openly bough and
sold on the floor of the House


What adds to the enormity of the case was the
well authenticated fact that the money used for tbs
purpose was stolen from the contributions sent ont
by charitable people at the East to relieve the su
ierlngs OF Kansas. Since the election of Pomeroy
and Lane to the Senate, nothing has been heard
of suffering in Kansas. Montgomery is desperado
OF the most abandoned character and has for wears
Kept around him band of lawless men, who made
m themselves the terror OF the country round about
Their robberies and murders are fresh in the minds
OF the pubic. This band is still in active service
and the effect of giving a commission to Mont
gomery is to place them in the pay of government
ana make the whole country responsible for their
acts. Ihese men proclaim that they determine ed
to "sustain the Union" and 'fprotect the honor of
the fag"' fhe elevation of men of such character
to par with the volunteers who have disinterest
edly shouldered their muskets for the support of
the government, in good faith, and with honorable
purpose, is burning disgrace to the country

NEGRO IMPUDENCE.

Crimes OF all sorts and degrees are daily perna-
trated by this class, and they seem to shrink from
the commission of no offence, however criminal or
revolving 1t may be. One of the most unnatural
and disgusting crimes on the calendar was lately
proven against one of these negro scoundrels in our
folice Court. They are making this county a
large Dill OF expense, and to be utterly reck-
less as to the consequences of any offence they NAV

After the four millions of slaves shall have been
freed according to the Abolition programme, and let

For Peace.


The peace men of Avon, Connecticut have
raised large and handsome flag, with the sub
scrption-"FoR PEACE" The ceremony of raising
was attended by large number of people in that
section, who responded heartily to the sentiment
thus thrown to the breeze. The people are pre-
parng to assert with emphasis their right of petit
deprive them. '''Ds inau0 "
