[From the El wood (Kiimwu) Advertiser.] What they Say in Kansas Many Eastern papers are discussing the events likely to arise, if Kansas is admitted undee the Lecompton Constitution. Our pa lter is, and has been independent, and whut we have to say on this subject is in no spirit of bragging or threatening ; we only express what we believe to be—from our knowledge of the Squatters in Kansas —the result that in case that swindle should pass. The people of this Territory will never live under that Constitution, and all the power of the Federal Government cannot force it upon them. The whole army of the United Stales does not number 15,000 men, and not over six or seven thousand can be brought in the field against us ; of these oue-third would desert before they would fight the freemen of Kan sas. To oppose this force, we have upwards of 13,000 men, intelligent citizens, who love their liberty better than life. Should the Governor call for aid from Missouri, or some other slaveholding State, we should instantly receive assistance from the free States, and thus inaugurate a civil war, which would end ! in a dissolution of the Union. If the I>emo- j cratic party and President Buchanan I ke the | picture, they have but to carry out the 1 ue of policy already commenced. If the certificates of election are granted to , the Free State men, and they do their duty, we shall have no trouble ; but if Calhoun gives them to the Pro-Slavery candidates, they can never hold their offices on the soil of Kansas. Should Jack Henderson and Calhoun then! dare to enter Kansas, they would be strung higher than Human. Nor is this all. We know that in ten days after an attempt to set in motion a Pro Slavery Stute Government, i not a single man would be left in the whole J Territory ; while the officials of every grade would receive lessons iu the Tcrpsichorian art of dancing on nothing. Let none be so foolish as to think that any session of the Legislature could be held, even under the guns of Fort Lca veuworth. Pass the Lecompton Constitution, grant certificates to Marshall it Co., and a majority of the Pro Slavery Legislators, and Calhoun, Henderson, et U-omne gensus, become outlaws, whose deaths, if ceuglit on Kansas soil, would pay the penalty of their past vil lainy and treachery ; nor would Oato, Le • corapte, Emery, Clarkson. Sheriff Jones, or the remaining prominent Pro-Slavery ultraist, bo slighted (.') in the universal attention paid that ilk. Gentlemen, one word—we advocate peace and mildness, we disapprove of violence so long as it cun possibly be avoided ; we do not wish to see you suffering iu property or person, but we caution you, if you value your lives, the moment the Lecompton Constitution pas ses, (provided Calhoun declares your ticket elected,) that you had better bid adieu to Kansas. We don't charge you anything for this advice, but offer it freely, for your bene fit and your peace. Moderate Pro-Slavery men, who have never wronged their neighbors, and hare never been oppressive iu their day of power, are in no danger. Ye supporters of the President's Lecompton policy, read this, ponder it ; we have not writ teu this article for effect, nor to frighten any one ; neither do we in publishing it, yield our neutrality in the political arena, but as the watchmau startles the sleeping citizens with the cry of fire, that they may save themselves and property, so we, as watchers of the signs of times, have herein declared onr firm convic tion of the result, and given a friendly warn ing to those we deem eudaugered. I>o not slight our caution ; we are no alarmists, but write words of truth and soberness, gleaned from an iutimate acquaintance with the ins ami outs of Kansas politics. Let Leconiptonites, iu and out of Kansas, BEWARE —pause and take another look before you leap. SEARCHING FOR THE BURIED TREASURES OF THE SEA. —An interesting report has been made to the Boston Submarine Company iu relation to the expedition sent to the Caribbean sea, nudcr the command of Captain Couthouy, to search for the sunken treasures of the Spanish frigate Sau Pedro : The several divers connected with Captain Couthony's force spent in the aggregate about 8 1-2 hours under water daily during the time they had been at work npon the wreck. Sil ver dollars were found in the depth of sixty feet iu the water, covered with mud, but they were taken out, and many other valuable arti cles and the divers came to the conclusion that when the explosion of the vessel took place, these articles were driven from the for ward part of the ship, where the bulk of the treasure undoubtedly remained. They obtained an entrance to the hold of the forward port of the ship on the 12th of December last. About S7OO in specie and another brass six pounder were taken out of tlyt place in a short time, also watches and many curious relies. The money found here was cemented together iu sls, S2O and SIOO each, and very plainly showed that they must be very near the vast amount of money con tained iu the ship. According to the official documents, wheu the Sen Pedro went down she contained one million of Spanish dollars, and a million and a half in gold, a large por tion of which should be there still. As Oi.n STORY WITH A NEW A FPLICATION. — A story is told of a negru who had a great de sire to be converted under the preaching of Whitfield. Not being acquainted with the physiognomy of that eminent divine, his ques tion, whenever he heard a discourse, " Who dat preaching dare ?" was often repeated.— On one such an occasion, in reply to his inev itable question, Sambo was answered by a per son who understood his wish, " That's* Whit field." Sambo's opportunity had arrived ; und in the midst of his excitement, he rolled him self about iu a manner he thought befitting the great occasion. A day or two afterwards j he learned, to his intense astonishment, that i Whitfield had not preached at that time—was ! not even iu that part of the country ; and his chagrin found sorrowful expression : " Den l'se rolled in de dirt for notniu' !" So with |KK>r Buchanan iu his Kansas busimss ; he rolled iu the dirt thus far for all nothing. XOBI.E ACT RY A BOY. —The Harrisburg Jlrraid says : A boy recently discovered a large tree lying across the track of the Peon- j sylvania Railroad, betweeu Lock port and New j Florence, and knowing that a passenger train ; would soon arrive, hoisted his handkerchief upon a stick, and waited the approach of the train. The engineer stopped, and the passen gers saw the danger they had escaped, they were tilled with gratitude, and raised a purse lor him, which he refused, saying that he "on ly wanted to save them from getting hurt."' The Triumph in the House. As we anticipated, the Administration's Le compton bill is defeated. The House, by a majority of eight, has passed Crittenden's amendment, submitting the Lecompton Con stitution to a popular vote, mukiug provision against future election frauds, and deciding that no constution shall be imposed upon the peo ple of Kansas which is not of their own mak ing. Under the conditions of Crittenden's substitute, which had been modified so as to omit all apparent recognition ot the validity of the Lecompton Constitution, Kansas, if the Senate concur, will be abmitted into the Union whether the Topeka or the Lecompton con stitution be adopted, and popular sovereignty, in the just sense of the term, will be reinstated A Convention, regularly called, is now in ses sion at Leavenworth, engaged in framing such a Constitution as will command the sanc tion of a majority of the inhabitants of Kansas and nothing stands in the way of the complete extinguishment of controversy and of the re turn of justice and peace to that distracted ! region, but the blind folly of the Senate aud the President. From the telegraphic report of yesterday's proceedings iu Congress, it appears that the bill has been returned to the Senate tor its action. But the probability is that it will not concur, und that fresh efforts of Executive dic tation or bribery will be made tv induce the j anti-Lecompton representatives to recede from the position they have assumed. Such at tempts, we apprehend, will be in vain. The opponents of the Lecompton fraud stand upon immovable grounds ; they are backed by an unparalleled anion of the numbers, the intelli gence and the respectability of the American people. No matter what may have been their past political affinities, they arc sure, if they remain faithful, of an increased return of pop ular favor aud support ; and we cannot believe that an Administration, which must by this time hove pledged the last office to promote an odious and baffled conspiracy, has anything re maining in its gift which, even to the most mercenary, would make treachery desirable.— Evening Post. FOREIGN NEWS. —The City of Baltimore steam-propeller, from Liverpool on the 17th inst., has brought four days' later foreign news. ORSINI and PIF.RRI, the assassiuatingconspira tors of January 14th, had been guillotined, at Paris, on the 13th inst. The lives of their twocomrades, also cmvictcd, would be spared. Count WALWSKI had desired to withdraw that letter to England on which Lord I'.U.MERSTON had brought in the coiispiracv-to-murder bill, which will proably induce the Derby Ministry to drop that measure. Sardinia and Austria had declined to yield to NAPOLEON'S extradi tion requests. The Derby Ministry had begun to work, with every prospect of continuance iu office. Lord PALMERSTON will lead the Op position, declining to give that office to his little rival, Lord JOHN RUSSELL. From India, the news, iu scanty but favoro ble. The King of Delhi had been convicted of guilty complicity in the revolt, and sentenced to banishment. The revolt now is confined to Oude, and a decisive attack on Lucknow, by the British, was expected to take place before the end of February. From China, we loam that the British and French forces .continued to occupy Cautou, waiting for additional troops to make another attack elsewhere, and the Chinese had actually fallen upon the Russian force iu the North. Bi'RNF.n TO DEATH. —Auothcrdreadful death from burning tluid occurred iu Reading Pa., on Thursday morning last. The victim was a young girl named Angeline Lees, employed as a domestic in the family of Mr. Albert Slil ler. Ou the evening preceding the fatal occurrence, she was observed filling a fluid lamp that was burning, and warned by Mrs. Miller, of the great riak she incurred, and told never to do so again. On the next morning, at 5 A. M , Mr. Miller and his wife was arous ed from sleep by piercing cries proceeding from the gin's chamber, und on hastening to her relief found her enveloped in the flames. She was immediately wrapped iu a piece of of carpet, and the flames subdued, but her in juries were so severe that she died soon after iu great agony. The deceased was sixteen years of age. HARD TIMES NEARLY OVER. —The New York Herald says that a large money broker of that city last Friday discounted $240,000 worth of grocers' paper including paper given for teas, Ac., at 7 per cent., six mouths, which may be considered as indicative of great ease in the money market. A large auctiou house stated that out of three hundred customers, only sixty four had suspended, and out of these only four had failed to pay, either in full or fifty cents on the dollar, which was a much more favorable result than they had at first been led to anticipate. FROM THE 810 GRANDE. —The Sat] Antonio Herald of the 12th ult., says that an express had arrived in that city, sent by (.'apt. A. G Brackett, commanding Fort Mcintosh ( Laredo Texas,) having despatches for Gen. Twiggs aud Gov Kuuels, as well a3 letters for the Mayor of San Antonio, and others. The cor respondent of that journal says that official and certain information has been received by Capt A. G. Brackett that certain citzcns of the United States, residing about seventy miles be low this, in this State, had been kidnapped and forced into the ranks of one of the contending factions of Mexico, viz : the dominant and ruling party, by the Alcalde of Guerro. A meeting of the citizens of Webb county, Texas held in the Laredo Court House, on the 13th ult., adopted strong resolutions touching this matter. ECONOMY ON RAILROADS. —The engineers and firemen of the Ilousatonic Railroad have been competing with each other, to see who could run the greater number of miles with the smal lest amount of wood. On Thursday one of the locomotives, with the regular passenger train, rnu 104 miles, consuming only one cord of wood. WOMAN* SHOT. —Sarah Loop, residing on Carroll street, opposite this office, was shot by a young man named Vincent Odell, on Satur day afternoon March 28th, about half-past five. The shooting is said to have been ac cidental. The ball entered at the 'ower point of the right shoulder blade, and was taken out of the breast at a point nearly opposite.— Odell was arrested and put in jail, but subse quently released, as the shooting was clearly the result of carelessness, and not design The woman is still alive, and her recovery is possible, although the chances are against such ft result. It is said her chnrncter was not above suspicion. -Ehhirada :e'tc. ilraMortiUjJortfr. E. O. GOODRICH, EDITOR. TOWATsri>A : (Djnrsitan Hlornmg, SVpril 8, 1838.

GOOPltlCll, Chairman. March 31, ISR. I.hCoMiTON* KILLED IX THE HOUSE. —(ien. .John Calhoun's bill, the famous Lecompton swindle, has received its quietus in the House ; the darling measure of that prince of Demo crats (!) James Buchanan has been laid low. A base attempt of the President, backed by his army of hireliug office-holders to over-ride the will of the sovereign people and fasten up on them institutions which they have repudia- I ted, has been frustrated. The work was done, and well done, ou Thursduy last, between 2 and 3 o'clock, P. M. All honor to the noble ; men, whether they be Americans, Democrats, or Republicans, who did it. They are friends [of Popular Rights ; they are enemies to Op | pressiou ; they are well fitted to be represen tatives of a great and free people ; while those against them, and especially sucli as hail from the North, will be better bestowed if compell ed hereafter, as most of them must be, to lead perfectly private lives. The last will doubt less be so well cared for by their constituents, that they will always keep them at home.— More than this, there will be so little disposi tion to trouble them any further with the cares of office, that it is doubtful whether any one of them will be asked to serve even as dog catchers ! To return : it will be seen that Mr. Critten den's amendment, slightly modified by Mr. Montgomery, has passed in place of the Sen ate Bill. It sends the whole matter back to the people of Kansas, who will take care of themselves iu the premises, we doubt not as >OOll as they arc called upon to do so. Wheth cr the Senate concur or not, Lecompton is down ; for if the two Houses of Congress should foolishly continue to differ, no possible good can come to the President and his myr midons in or out of Kansas. The measure of Despotism and Oppression has been frustrated; the President is down, we think, never to rise again to the heart of the masses he has sought to betray—to the position which he held when he assumed the Presidential Chair, even though lie may try to drown Kansas in Mex ico and Cuba. He is weighed in the balances and found wanting, and it will not take one but twenty wars with Mexico and Spain to put him where he was when he emerged from the ranks of the old Federalists and pre tended to be what he clearly uever was in hon esty—a Democrat. THE KANSAS BILL IX TIIK SEXATB —When the Kansas bill came up in the Senate ou Fri day, Mr. GHEES, of Missouri, immediately | moved to disagree with the House ameud -1 meat. After remarks by Messrs. 8101.F.R and I PUOH, in support of the motion, and by Mr. | Dour, LAS against it, the question was taken, | and Mr. GREEN'S motion prevailed—yeas, 32; nays, 23. So the Senate refuses to concur, and the bill goes back to the House for its action thereon. It is scarcely possible that the House will not ■ insist on its amendment, and there is thus a ' prospect of an irreconcilable difference between ; the two branches of Congress ou this vexed question. If no agreement eventually takes place, the bill is lost. But we trust there muv bi sufficient patriotism in the Senate to recede from its position, and permit the admission of Kansas under a Constitution which her citizens can approve. LIX-TA HOSF. CO. No. 3. —At a regular meeting of Liu-ta Hose Co. No. 3, held at the Firemen's Hall on Monday evening lust, the following officers were elected for the en suing terra : Foreman— F. D. MONTANYE, lA/.

Prayer meetings arc held every morn ing, and preaching at the different churches every TLUJF of the week. The manifest inter est that all feel in this great and good enter prise is calculated to produce the best results. AX EDITOR ASSAILED. —W. J. KAUFEMAN, Esq., editor of the Strasburg (Pa ) Herald, was assailed iu the entry of Massasoit Ilall, IU that place by a couple of rowdies who felt themselves aggrieved by an article in the col umns of the Herald. Bystanders interferred, and doubt less prevented a tragedy. The oc currence took place on Saturday. THE I*ll4- EUR THE SALE OE THE STATECAXAIS. —Tliis bill, having occupied the attention of members for some time past, has at last pass ed the House, and ©n being taken up in the Senate, was referred by a vote which indicat ed its passage through that body. We are glad to record this fact, and shall rejoice to see the day when the State shall di vorce itself from all the public works, and abolish that nest of corruption, the Canal Board, which will be the next bill io order.— When this Board is abolished, the tax payers may hope to see their hard-earned taxes ap propriated for the liquidation of the State debt. SVMPTOMS OE THE. CHIVALRY. —The honorable Mr. W. SMITH, of Virginia, annouueed on Sat urday that he should make public use of any private conversation which any person might hold with him upon public affairs, if he thought it conducive to the public welfare, unless it was expressly stated at the time that it was confidential. We suspect that this frank but. slightly sneaking declaration will render Mr. W. SMITH'S acquaintances a little cautious in their private conversations with him upon politics. After this, he will -probably hear nothing worth retailing. Some men find it impossible to be patriots except by becoming spies. teiy We see " from the papers " that thnt j old champion ot freedom, the Mentor of tiie free soil movement, and the respected and worthy son of Pennsylvania, Hon. .1. It. Gid | dings, has a book in press entitled "The Ex ! iles of Florida." It is said to be written in an au eloquent and attractive style, and it is believed that it will enhance the already bril , liant reputation of that worthy and self sacri ficing man. THE KANSAS BILL.— Gen. DI KE GREF.N pub lishes a letter in the Washington States insist ing that the South ought to resist the Lecomp ton bill, out of regard for its own honor as well as its interests. Being in a minority, he says, the South caunot afford to put herself in I the wrong. ths#' Two horses ridden rapidly by IT. F. ; Scott and F. Beatty, on a dark road in Bea ; ver county, Pa., ccnie in collision. Their heads met, and both were knocked down.— Scott's animal was killed. The riders eseap -1 ed uuhurt. I)r. POLLOCK, brother of the Ex-Governor, ! was thrown out of his buggy, at Williamsport, on the 11th ult.,and had his collar boue broken. The Lancaster (Pa.) Express gives the following particulars of the death in that city, I by hydrophobia, of Henry Webb ; " About four or five week*- ago, Mr. Webb was in Mr. Sheircnbrand's grocery store, where there was a large dog quietly standing, which he patted on the head ; the dog turned furiously j around, and bit him on the back of the right j hand ; the dog, though not evincing the least ; symptom of madness at that time, was killed on the following day. The wound was superficial and healing up in a few days, nothing more was thought of it until early on Saturday morn ing last, when Webb complained of a violent illness, great pain in his right side and arm, Ac. I)r. John L. Atlee, Jr., was called in, ! and found him laboring under hydrophobic I symptoms ; Webb could bear the sight of wa | ter, and the pouring of water from one vessel into another had no visible effect ou him : nor had the wafting of cool air towards him ; but i an attempt to drink, or the ad of merely taking | the vessel containing the liquid iuto his hand, I caused a violent spasmodic contraction of the muscles, with au inability to swallow. He was totally beyond the reach of medical aid, and died in great agony on Sunday morn ing at 6 oelock. Mr. Webb was a married man,and | leuves oue or two young children." DESTRUCTIVE FIRE IN HARRISPURO.— The Ilarrisburg Herald* of Wednesday says : j " About 10 o'clock last evening a lire broke ' out in a small frame stable, belonging to Mc | Gowens Hotel, corner of Second and Chestnut streets. The (lames spread with wonderful ra . pidity, and before the firemen could plav upon j it, the fire hud extended to three frame build ings on Chestnut street, belonging to Mr.Jausc j and Myers. From these a number of back I buildings caught, and soon the Presbyterian j church was wrapped in flames. The fire was i the work of an incendiary. For a while the | destruction of the whole square seemed certain. : The fire is the largest had here for ten years ut least. Four frame dwellings were destroyed, which were partly insured. The Presbyterian Church, which was entirely consumed, was insured for $7,000 in the Pennsylvania and Franklin Com panies of Philadelphia. The Sunday-School Library, two melodians and the furniture of the Church were mostly saved. LATER FROM UTAH.— St. IJOVXS, Monday, April 5, 1858—The Utah mail which left Camp Scott, March 1. has arrived. The troops continued in fine health, and were awaiting the determination of their commander to proceed to Salt Lake. Col. JOHNSTON had a regular effective force of 1,800 men, and a thousand animals in good condition, with a large volunteer force, and the general impres sion was that he would not wait for reinforce ments before making the attack. Communi cation with Salt Lake City was entirely pro hibited, and little or nothing was known of tiie intentions or preparations of the Mormons to resist the entrance of the troops: Col. JOHN STON'S dispatches will be forwarded immediate ly to Washington. V&" There are in the city of New York nearly forty thousand women who sew for a living. About thirteen thousand of these are shirt-makers, eleven thousand tailoresses and vest-makers, four thousand four hundred cloak and mantilla-makers, three thousand dress maters and milliners, besides those employed in other branches of needle-work. Most of these women have been out of employment during the past winter ; only about three thousand of them, it is said, have had work to do during this period. Shirt-makers generally receive twenty five cents a day. Tote ia the House on the Kansas Bill FOR THE CRITTENDEN AMENDMENT.

OK UNIFORM. —We noticed several days ago that the War Department was about to order changes in the uniform of the Army generally. It uow appears that such an or der has been issued, and it contains a full des-1 cription of the new uniform decided upon. The I cap now worn is supplanted by a felt hat with j brim 3 1-2 inches and crown 6 1-4 inches high, j bound with ribbed silk for officers, and double j stitched around the rim for men. The trim mings for general officers are as follows : ' Gold cord, with acorn-shaped ends ; the brim ! of the hat looped upon the right side and fas-; tencd with an eagle attached to the side of the ! hat ; a gold embroidered wreath in front, on black velvet ground, encircling the letters IT.Sl T .S ! in silver, old English characters. For other classifications of officers and for the privates there are similiar trimmings, va rying slightly for each distinctive grade or class. The change also extends to the pantaloons and coat, but in respect to them it is confined to the trimming of the latter, and the stripe ! of the former. Sibley's tent is also to be sub- 1 stituted for that uow in use.— Was/tinclon Star. \ AFFRAY IN A RAILROAD CAR. — An affray oc curred on the Cleveland Express train on the Detroit & Toledo Railroad Thursday after noon. A gentlemanly looking man took the ; train at Toledo and offered a ticket on another | road which was refused and his fare demand-! Ed by the conductor. He declined to pay, when the conductor and baggageman under took to put him off. The passenger drew a pistol and assumed a defiant attitude. Roth the conductor and the baggageman sprang upon him, and succeeded in getting him down upon the sent. During the melee the pistol was discharged, the ball passing through the bottom of the seat immediately forward, and out through the floor of the car. The man was immediately put off the train and left on i the track. Steps have been tuken by the ; Company to have the man arrested. - • A MANIFICENT LIBEL SUIT. —The New York Herald announces, with grim satisfaction, that a libel suit will shortly be brought by Fernan do Wood agaiust Horace Greeley if- Co., the proprietors of the Tribune.

I®-Thc Chicago Press has an advertise ment forty columns long, of lands in that city delinquent for taxes. This is attributed to the crushing effect of the late fiuancial panic. 1 I A DESPERATE FIGHT—TWO MEN The Memphis Avalanche RECORDS fight in the neighborhood of TUSCAN/' if twien a farmer of that vicinity and T 1 ' I thieves.
