it wili be seen, from the late hews frotfi
Kansa", ibat the border rufams there, iu the
Convention to frauie a Constitution, have again
sliowu themselves to be the most in famous and
villainous sot of scoundrels In existence. The
Comeniiou was composed ucaily entirely ot
pro-slavery men, and tiiey have gone to work
nod made ail out and out pitr-slavery coustitu
tiou, and de -ided thai the > "•sp'.e of that Terri
tory shall not have the privilege of voting up
on if, except upon the resolution in regard to
slavery, lly the recent (lection, it is manifest
tout if the citizens of thai Territory had the
privilege cf voting upon it, .t would be over
whelmingly defeated, and they take this plau
to prevent any fair expression of the people on
the subject. The .single clause on which theae
infamous would be-dictators say they may vote,
uouid scarcely amount to anything, for if they
would vote upon it. and defeat the clause in
relation t" slavery, the other sections of the
constitution ate so tyrannical, that the Slate
wuuid virtually be a slave State. The like of
this high-handed outrage his certainly no par
allel in this countij and scarcely any in any
-other. Even Louis Napoleon allowed tho
French people to vote on the question, as to
whether he should be Emperor or nor, but
these ruffians will not allow ihe people to vote
owihc very iustruiuent under which they are
to be governed.
\\ bat course the present blaik-Locofoeo ad
ministration will pursue io reference to this new
and enormous fraud? The Convention whicn
nominated Mr. Buchanan at Cincinnati,
-'Resolved, That we recognize the right of
toe people of ail tiie Territories, including
Kansas and Nebraska, acting through the fair
ly EXPRESSED (.NOT iMpt.iED) WILD of itie ma
jority oj actual residents, and whenever the
uuuitier at their inhabitants justifies it, to form
a constitution, with or without domestic slave
ry, and to be admitted into the Union upon
terms of perfect cqualitv with the other
States."
Equally explicit and to the same purport,
as it seeing to us. is the language of Presi
dent Buchanan's instructions to Gov. Walker
under this head. From tho to iustruciioni, of
ficially addressed to Gov. Walker, in the name
of ti.e President and by the Secretary of State,
we cite the following paragraph:
"The regular Legislature of the Territory
having authorized the assembling of a Conven
tion to frame a constitution, to be accepted Or
rejected by Congress, under the provision of
the poopio o.f Kins .•
have the right to be protected to the j'Gleeful
election of for s icti a purpose, under
such authority, and the Convention itsi if has
a right to similar protection in tho opportunity
for tranquil and undisturbed deliberation'.—
When such a constitution shall be submitted' to
the people of the Territory they most be pro
tected lu tu, exercise of their rigb: of voting
for or against that instrument, and the fair
trprrssmn rf the popular will mast not Is in
ter/ up!id hj jraiul or violence."
Of Gov. \v.u :,rG opinions, to t?;o same ef- 1
feet, au lof the language he has uniformly i
held on this subject, it j s hardly necessary to '
speak. J fie following extract from his Inaug
ural Address will suffice to disclose the views
with vrhteu he acceded ..to the gubernatorial
chair of Kansas:
1 repeat, then, as my clear conviction, that j
unless !.H> CowMmtkm submit the. constitution
to the vote of all the actual resident settlers of i
Ivinuj, "ud the election be . firly and justly 1
.conducted the constitution wdt and ought
■ to be rejected by Long rest''
Gov. Walker expressed similar views to this
in his address to the people of Topeka.
The Washington Union, of the 7th of July
lost, says:
"We repeat that ilic constitution of Kansas
uiust come fiani the people of Kansas. Other'
power to make such au instrument there is
noue under Heaven."
The Philadelphia Pikss, edited by John W
Forney, says:
"We publish tT.'j morning the schedule
adopted by the Kaiis-i* Constitutional Conven
tion. Contrary to what we conceive to be the
true intent mid meaning of the ivan-as-No
hraka act, ibo resolution 4of the Cincinnati
Platform, tlie luaio;ural address of Mr. Itu
ehanan, the recomwnidations of Governor
W aiker, the pledges of many of the members
of that Convcution, the 'general expectations ot
the country, and in defiance of the true prinoi
pl sof liberal democratic gciveVuu.ciit, tiiai
body lias refused to sulimt:. its fviitk fairly to
the citizens of Kansas. There is no hones;
submission of the now coCstitufinn to the ac
tioti of the people. It is provided thai they
may vote for "the constituil in with slavery,''
or for "the constitution without slavery," but
they cannot vote against the constitution, no
matter how much iliey may be opposed to its
provisions. They are not allowed an opportu
nity of saying whether tbev do or do not de
sire the doeuuient flamed by this Convention
to be their fundamental law, and by tiie abne
gation cf this privilege they are d . priced of
Che mil exercise of that right of forming theii
own institutions to which they are entitled In ;
every consideration of justice aud right."
After all these promises and pledges bv the
i/'laeV Democracy, Iduolianau, Walker, the
press, etc., it remains to be seen what eourso
ibey win pursue ou this question when this
bogus constitution comes to be acted upon, on
the admission of Kansas into the Union as a
State, the coming winter. Will they remain
true to their professions? or will they, through
fear of their southern masters, connive at this
gross outrage!
A SIGNIFICANT FACT.
"Wherever the opposition to the Democrat
ic p?rty a!<l ! " P' ,w - r 'he present financial dif
ficulties are the most embarrassing For in
stance in New York, whore Abolition misrule
has been throwing to the winds the boasted
wealth of that great State, there have been
4SS suspensions since the first of August lis',
and in Massachusetts, the banner State of the
opposition, there have been, since that date,
1-0, making together more than one-half of all
the uuspcu-oons in the United States, since the
beginning of the pre am; tnouctary trouble"."
The above extract was written by a man
who passed the early years of his life as a
•Whig, but who ha.- since passed through all the
gradations of Know -Vot.'iingism and Repub
licanism, until he has beeomi a f/(icA:-LoCoTo
co. It clearly shows the truth of the old saw,
that "one renegade is worse than ten Turks."
Now what arc the facts iu regard to the
"present financial difficulties?" It is true that
New York has felt the present pressure more
than any other Stale in the Uuion. But the
reason of this is plain. She is the largest
State in the Union, as well as the wealthiest.
She is also the great commercial emporium of
the country, and within her borders is carried
on half the trade of the Republic. It is then
no matter of surprise tha't she should feel the
pressure, more than any o'her atuto
Massachusetts, also, if she is the "banner
State of tire opposition,' is also the "banner
State'" in manufacturing, and it is very easy
to see that the crisis would fall heavily on her
manufacturing establishments. Manufactures
suffer more severely under the British Free
Trade Tariff of 1816, than any other great in
terest of the countrv.
"Wherever the opposition to the Democrat
ic party are in power, the present financial
difficulties arc the most embarrassing." This
is a bold charge coming from such a source.—
,■ We would have thought, as an old Whig and
Know-Nothing, he hud boon taught better
sense than to believe, let alone make, such a
charge. What is the history of the past?
Was ever a State more thoroughly L-ocofooo
; than Mississippi ? She never goes for the op
; position, and yet .she now has a just and hon
■ est debt hanging over her, of .about six millions,
which she REPUDIATED some fifteen years ago,
and up to this tiuie absolutely refuses to pay !
How about Arkansas, another State that at
| ways votes with tho nigger- Democracy. She
also has about the same amount of honest in
debtedness which she REPUDIATED, about the
same time, and yet refuses to pay: Tee wid
ow and orphan's tears do lml, in tho least cre
ate arty sympathy in the breasts of the riigger-
Democracy in tie-Re Lacofuco States. How is
it even in Pennsylvania ? She, too, is x Laco
foco State, and for a time refused to pay uer
lionest debts. She has also a debt of forty
millions, contracted by the NtooEß-Democracy
to pay the itr rect of which, we are taxed for
almost everything wc raise, oat, or wear. All
these things we have to bear for tho sake of
the hungry and rapacious maws of the niggor
itish- Democracy, and yet they have tho un
blushing effrontery to charge the present crisis
on the opposition, when the nigger-lovers have
been in possession of the Government, and
nearly all the iStatcs, with short intervals, for
forty years.
They nlso pretend to abhor paper money,
and yet nearly ail tlie banks of this Common
wealth were chartered by t.;e Locofoco party,
ami the filthy and dirty rags of Virginia, North
ami South Carolina, Indiana, Illinois', New Jer
sey, Blissotri and other equally string, bogas-
Deiuocratie States, flood ail over the country.
Lrt us hear no more such idle twattle A life
long Locofoco would hardly have fceeh guilty
of making such a puny charge.

dispatches from the army in Utah, and Brig

kuows what will be the eud of this ill-provided
and bunglingly managed expedition to Utah.

will the Stortuo -> imitate the rxuinpie and
meet with too same success rt> the Circassians

uient of overt hostilities by tho Mormons, the
straggling army is menaced by the formidable
perils of a mountain winter, their track being
covered with snow, their forage becoming
scarce, nod their animals beginning to give out
on coscquence.
The President has heretofore persisted iti
believing that the Mormons will not dare to
resist the Federal troops. Will he continue to
eheri-h that infatuation alter learning that the
Mormons have resisted theui? We have heard
a good deal, during the last few years of the iu

Precisely ihe same state of affairs occur in

however, t> not place them before their party

well that they send to another County to pro

MASSACRE OP EMIGRANTS.
Over One Hundred Persons Killed. —A bet
ter from J. C. Ward to the Los Xngelos Star,
dated San Bernardino, Out. 4, 1857, states
that an entire train of emigrant* from Missouri ,
and Arkausas, bound to California bv way of
Gftat Salt Lake, had been by Indi ins t
at the Mountain Meadows, , which are on or j
near the riui of the Great Basin, and somedis- I
tanee outl of the umst *-outherit ?.lo'uioii ;
settlements. The massacre took tj !*ce about ;
the 10th or 11th of September. Mr. Ward i
says he first Obtained his information Vroiu the
Indians. The account, no doubt much ex
aggerated, if not altogether natrue, is as follows-
The company consisted of one hundred and j
thirty or one hundred and thirty-five men. j
women and children, and including some forty j
or forty-live capable of bearing. >trnis r Ihey '
were in possession of quite an amount cf stock',
consisting of horses, mules and oxen. Tie
encampment was attacked about daylight iu i
the morning, so says the Indians, by the cou; 1
biticd forces of all the various tribes immediately
iu the section of the country 1 appears that
the majority of them were >1 tin at the first onset
made by the Indians.
The remainiug force formed themselves into !
the best position ihcit circumstances would !
allow; but before they could nuke the necessary <
arrangements for protecting themselves from
the arrows, there were but few left who were i
able to bear arms.
After having obrraHed their wagons, and
dug a ditch lor their protection, they cou
tinned to Gre upon the lu.lians fbroue or two
days, but the Indians hail so secreted themselves
ttiat, according to their own statement, there
was not one of tiietn it tiled, and but few wound
ed. They (the emigrants) then sent a fiig of
truce, borne by a little girl, and then gave
themselves up to the mercy of the savages, who
immediately rushed in and slaughtered ail of
tuem, with the exception of fifteen infant chil
dren, that have -iuce been purchased, with
some difficulty, by the Mormou interpreters.
The causes which led to the massacre ate
reported to be thjit, when the train camped at
au Indian village near Filluiore City, the
emigrants not only cheated the natives badly
in trading with them, but they put strychnine
iu a d eud ox for the purpose of poisoumg the
Indians, and also put poison in the water which
stands in pools. This occasioned several
deati.s among the Indi ins, w thin a few days
after the departure of the It.tin whereupon the
Iciiaus rallied, Selected api ice of att ok. and
took tetrible vcttgeaftee. Mr. W. says be
obtained u statement of the causes of the
massacre front Elders Matthews and Hyde,
who were iu Great Salt Like City at the time
this train was there recruiting thetr fit-out, and
Were on their way to San Bernardiue when tin;
murders Were committed, but several days'
journey in the rear of the emigrants.
DEATH OF GENERAL CAVAIGNAC.
The I'oroigu news published in another col
iimri brings the utiununcemeut uf the death of
thia distinguished individual, lie died, it
seem*, of a broken heart. Gen CAVAIGNAC
must have passed midulc age. lie served in
Algeria w.tli distiuction as early as 18JS.—
If we mistake not, he performed magnificent
service at toe trying auu terrible s 'ege
Constanttna, in that year, lie continued ♦<>
serve under the Orleans REGIME until that dy
nasty fe{! in 1348. lie had risen by barn
exertion in the field, and by the exhibition of
splendid qualities for command from the there
rank of licutcn ittf, to bo a geueral of division.
When the ltcpubiio was inaugurated in the
Spring of '43, LA MARTINS, who was placed at
the head of the Ptovistonul Government, raised
him to the rank of comumiuaut of the military
province of Algeria. This tribute was paid to
hint by the poet-statesman, not only because
ho knew his eminent fitness as a soldier for the
post, but because of his well known attachment
to the consti'utiorial republican government.
In this position he remained until ho was
elected, by a mosi appreciative constituency, to
the Legislative Assembly. He continued in
that body until the Latuartitic Provision il Gov
ernment faiied, when he became President.—
In the Assembly, his consistent affection for
conservative republicanism was most thoroughly
tried. He opposed with equal firmness the
restoration o! legitiinicy, us represented in the
person of HENRY, Prince of Chamhord, the
return of the Orleauists te power, in the person
of the Count of Paris, and the spread of Red
Republicanism and anarchy, as personified bv
LEDUT Itoj.U\, L.y I ts BLA.NO and RASPAIL.
it was mainly owing to his unshaken and
iron firmness that the revolution was put down
in June, 1848. It was true he received pow
erful aid from LAMORICIERFT, and other gallant
spirits who loved liberty regulated and con
trolled by law. But ho never hesitated or
faltered; and where none hut BONAPARTE had
ever succeeded, he too was successful, — we
mean iu the quelling of a Pcrisinn mob, when
it had been thoroughly organized and had
raised barricades. There is no other instance
f.f success upon the par: of those who h id tried
this experiment, but the suppression of the
"Insurrection of Sections,*' by Napolean the
Great.
He remained in the yfiice ,of Provisional
President until the ch-o'irm under the eoii-di
lat ion pat forth by the Legislative A-sem. ir.
Ali remember how he was beaten by Louts
NAPOLEON tor the office of President. Al
though ho received 1,600,000, yet bis tival
w is elected by an almost unsurpassed majority.
When the result was announced, however uracil
lie might lisve regretted if, notwithstanding he
was-in possession of the government, and not
withstanding the army wis devoted to him, he
quietly, like a true it.'publican, submitted and
went into retirement.

'Therearc plenty of young gentlemen, us

advise such of our readers to use Prof. Wood's
Hair Restorative, which will, iu the course of
a few weeks, change the hair to its naturalcot
nr. It does not dye the hair like most of the
hair restoratives, bet produces a gradual change
of color from the roots of the hair 10 the final
end, aud gives it a fine aud glossy appearance.
We have seen in my persons who have used it
successfully, and pronounce it the only inven

two months since. and if we are any judge of
