ILV"President Buchanan's submis
sion to the ~.uth is clearly shown by
the resignation of Governor Geary, of
Kansas. If Borhahan had any intem l
tion of making the least etfort,for freeL
dom in Kansas, he would lave sus.
tamed Geary and dismissed Lecompte.
Governor Geary has diine is little for
the Free State men, of that fated
Territory as any man with a spark of
justice in him could, yet even that lit
tle was too much for the iorder Ituf-
Aans, and they require his dismissal.
Buchanan yields to the demand, and
thus shows himself .the abject tool o
the Slave Power., Whanext
('Thomas B. Tyler, Prkhono
tary of this County, left with his fam
ily, on Tuesday last, for Wisconsin.
This leaves the office vacant as We un
derstand it, and it will remain so un
