THE QUESTION
It is strange how easily men can
find reason for abandoning principles
for the sake of party, - For instance
nearly every body in this county is in
favor of securing the free state men of
Kansas in their rights; and of oppos
ing the extension of slavery. Nobody
defends Pierce, and yet quite a num
ber will be glad to have James Buchan -
an nominated, so they can stay in the
party, and again aid the slave holders
to rule the nation. Is there any man
so green as to suppose Buchanan can
be nominated without first satisfiying
the South that he will carry on the
work begun by Pierce and Douglas ?
And having pledged himself to the
slave holders, an anti-Nebraska man
who will support him, is a poor, silly
thing—.bas no blood, and does not
deserve to live in a Republic.
Shall the 350,000 slaveholders own
all the 1,400,000 square miles of terri
tory not yet made States, and drive
all northern men away from it 1 or
shall it belong to -the People I Shall
this vast area be like Arkansas and
South Carolina, or like Michigan and
Connecticut ? That is the immediate
question,
Shall Slavery spread over• all the
United States and root' out Freedom
from the land , . or shall Freedom
spread wide her blessed boughs till
the whole continentis fed by her fruit,
and lodged beneath her arms, her vary
leaves,,for the healing of the nations 1
That is the ultimate question,
The nominee of the Cincinnati Con
vention, whether Buchanan or Pierce,
Douglas; or Wise, will be on one side
of this question. and the Republican
nominee will be on the other. The
former will be for Slavey in Kansas
the latter for Freedom. Reader, on,
which side of this question will you
cast your influence I

Ltwitt:kicE, t April 25, 1856,
EDITOR OF THE JOURNAL : The_ past ,
week has been au eventful one in Kan
sas--*--an eventful week in the history
of the Union, Iu that short time I
have witnessed in this city the enforce
ment of a code of laws enacted by the
Barons of the south, for the govern
ment of the free people of Kansas laws
the very reading of which would make
any unprejudiced Democrat in Potter
County recoil with horror at their un
blushing tyranny, and unvoluntarily
ask himself "Are these laws designed
for free American Citizens V' I; will
not do for any ntau among you to say
" we have read extracts from them and
do not think them so - tyrannical," and
then-sink back into Hunker indifference
contented with this Union-loving and
conservative remark; far these ex
tracts however pointed they may bp.
give but a faint idea of the volume call
ed" The Laws of Kansas TerritoryNt
is by beginning with the first and read
ngeirefitlfy through to the fist of these
laws ; it is . by taking them in toto and
considering the cool, determined, and
preserving tyranny, the debasing and'
insulting use these legislator: made of
their assumed power—debasingto them
selves if they can be debased, and in
sulting alike to humanity and freedom
—that one can form a correct impress
ion, of this code.
1 stated in my last, that Jones came
here on Saturday and attempted to
execute a writ on Col. Wood who - re
fused to be taken, saying that he did
not acknowledge the code above re
ferred to. The next day, Sunday, he
returned and tried to arrest some others
who were concerned in the rescue of
Branson, Col. Wood being it is sup
posed in Church. .Tones a brought
posse with him, but in a crowd of fifty
or sixty men who had gathered to see
the fun his posse were not called upon
so he left, stating that he mould bring
the United States troops the next time
and execute his writ " if he had to kill
every d—d abolitionist in Lawrence."
On the representation of Jones that
he had been resisted in Lawrence, Gov.
Shannon sent a special messenger to
Lexington, Missouri, to telegraph to
Pierce for instructions. On Monday
evening the messenger passed through
this place on his way back to Lecomp
ton with the President's reply, and on
Tuesday afternoon a detachment of
the United States cavalry' from Fort
Leavenworth marched into this city to
enforce these infamous laws upon nieu
who spurn them with contempt as free
men Ought. These
.were headed by
Jones, and commanded by L.ieut Mc-
Intosh, who by the way is a gentle.
man, and appreciated the farce in
which 're was an actor as well as his
" audience." No resistance•was offer
ed whateier, and Jones took all whom
his writ called for in a few 'minutes,—
thatis, all who could be - found.
Imagine if you can, the United States
cavalry detachment drawn up in solid
phalanx in front of a little shanty,
(Wood's law office) seethe great Jones,
conscious of having the military force
of this groat nation at his command
strut boldly into it—in the middleof
day,. too, without any feai !—and with
writ in hand; search a space of about
twelve feet square and return without a
prisoner listed to the shrieks grons and
laughter of a great crowd, to meet the
humiliated gaze. of the commanding
officer, the winks and smiles of the
soildery, and the jokes and jibes of the
populace, and you will have some idea
of the dignity and grandeur of the first
act iu this- scene. After witnessing
this, I could easily see how Greytown,
was taken by &eh fearful . odds."
However, Jones was suCeessful in
arresting six, though not a man in
Lawrence knows what for, nor did
anybody - inquire,—not one of • these
men being of the party who rescued.
Branson,
The prisoners were then marched
to a restaurant on Massachnsetts i street,
put under strong guard, and the sold iers
camped out for the night. All was
peaceable and quiet at dark, the eve
ning was warm and pleasant, and the
little groups which dutted the street at
short inteivals showed that considera
ble interest Was taken in this move
ment, though the unanimous sentiment
of the people was obedience to the
United states troops,
But the Most sorrowful event of
Tuesday is yet to be related.. The
night was very dark, and therefore well
adapted to the purposes •of the assas
sin. While JOE/08 was drawing a glass
of water from a barrel in or near the
encampment, two successive shirts
were fired at him, one of them passing .
through the leg of his panta,loous . near
the foot. He then weut iuto a tentland
was telling and swearing about it to a
couple et soldiers, when a ball from a
revolver in the hands of some person
unkuuwn, struck him iu the backa bout
sixiuchei below the head and loged iu
the- region of the spine; He was
mediately carried to the Free State
Hotel and attended by Dr. Stringfellow
who was then here. • Ha is still alive
and was taken yesterday to Franklin,
a Pro-Slavery town four miles south
east from here. • .
It was generally believed that night,
that his- assassin wail a ,Free State,
man, who 'blindly believed ,that the
murder of this poor miserable tool of.
Slavery would further -the Free State
cause—and I am proud to say for the
people of Lawrence and for the honor
of our cause—a cause which unlike
its antagonism does not depend upon
assassinatioit for success, that they were
unanimous in their denunciation of the
outrage. Accordingly a Free State
Indignation meeting was held the next
morning, at 'which Senator Reeder and
Gov. Robinson made speeches dis
claiming in behalf
. of the people of
Lawrence, any sympathy with this at
tempted assassination; and resolutions
were passed embodying these senti
ments. Gov. Robinson offered a re
ward the same day of Five HUNDRED
DOLLARS for the detection and convic
tion of this man in a United States
Court.. When will the Slave-hunting
drunken Shannon offer a reward " ap
proved by President Pierce" for the
murders of Coleman, Dow, Brown and
Barber? Never!
To-day circumstances of the most
gratifying character have come. to
light. It seems this Jones has made
himself obnoxious to some pro-slavery
squatters by removing them from some .
claims which he or his friends preten
ded to own ; and with whom lie had
had some difficulty, that they have .
been dogging his footsteps for some
time for a chance to shoot him,—that
two strangers
.rode • into Lawrence
about dark on the day he was shot,
their names unknown, who could not
be found in the morning and who
probably thought that such au opportu
nity-to avoid suspicion of the deed and
escape would never present. itself
again. Others—among them Gov.
Robinson—believed that be was shot
by one of his. own party—fur political
Capital against our cause;. for what is
human life, what is one murder to an
oligarchy that scourges to death and
shoots down hundreds of human beings,
every year ?
The next morning after the attempt.
ed murder, more troops were sent for
to Fort Leavenworth, but they have
not arrived yet. They are sent for, to
present any collision between, the free
state men And the Missourians who are
reported to be coming in hundreds to
avenge Jones. . Whitfield and String.

1 have just returned from the Post
Office and find Ithat though a large
newspaper mail has arrived not a single
letter is the bag. • The inference is,
that the mail has been stopped on the
border for examination. I expected
some !otters from you. I hope the
Chivalry will end no treason in them,
for then I may never get them. The
Postmaster thinks that the letters are
stopped for that purpose, as they were
stopped last winter, and strange to say ,
though he calls himself a National
