Altho' it has been made the pretext for committing flagrant injustice, as in the partition ::( l'oland, and other similar cases which history recorder, rds, yet the principle itself, though often abused, has always been recog nized. l• 1 -.• The United States has never acquired afoot of ter ritory except by fair purchase,., as in the case of Texas, upon the free and volun . y application of the people of that. independant State, who desired to blend their destinies with our4wn. • Even our acquisitions from exico are no creep tion to this lute, because; although we might have claimed them by the right of conquest in .a just war, yet we purchased them frombat was 'then consid ered by both parties a full and ample equivalent.

How strikingly. this re- , minds a reader of Scripture of the eenduct of Ahab, the King of Israel, who coveted the vineyard of his poor neighbor; who refused to sell the patrimony of his .fathers. ,The King, under the advice of Jezebel, pursued precisely the same policy which Buchanan advises our government to pursue in regard to Spain. The prophet protiouneedthe judg ment of God upon the idolatrous and cruel Queen,- and the weak King, and the people of the United States will soon pronounce a sen tence of condemnation upon Mr. Buchanan. Even the bad administration of Gen. Pierce, disdained to take the martfuder, or rather the Buchanier advice offered. They offered to buy Cuba, but did not, under the highway man's.plea, proceed to wrest it from Spain. If Mr. Buchanan shall be elected President, he will, lithe statements of his friends can be believed, proceed to carry;;' out his ruffian policy of robbing Spain of Cuba; thus inVolv ing us in a war with lialf the world, and cov ering our name with ineffable disgrace.

Sleket, who has ust returned from Lawrence. I can assure you that it always gives me - pleasure to hear from yOu,-and the more so in this instance for the sympathy you so kindly express for meiand my fellow-prisoners. 101 l are aware, of course, that sic are still held in durance; and expect to be .until the second week in - eptember—the time appointed for our trial. to take place. It is now, newly Three months since I Wei arrested.. was returning from Kansas City to my home in Lawrence,. in company with G. W . Brown, where We had been on private business. When between Kansas City and Westport we were attacked by. a band of armed ruffians. under the lead or one Milton McGee,—oUr horses and every thing of value taken froth us. without cere mony, and we were forced to Lecompton. as prisoners without any authority Whatever.- 1 was hOwever discharged - from custody the next day, but again arrested, at the:Tillage of Lawrence imntediately . aftex. I will re mark here that the property taken froin 'Mr. Brown and myielf was of crmsiderable ue,the horses belonged to me; and were as fine. a pair as ,any in the 'Territory, - note thing. has ever been recovered" nor ever . Will I be. The fact is, the country is overrun by armed- bands, compoSed mainly of the scum of th&South .; their main business is robbery and plunder, wheneVer and wherever the.op ' portunity 6fTers,"and that is alOosh daily.— Wnhave had our cattle and . horSes taken from our fields and plows, and - Free. State settlers have been driven froth their claims and their cabins burned in' order to force them to leave, and Shannon when applied to would do 'nothing in our behalf, but the inso lent reply ha's been that if we-donot like that kind of treatment we might leave the •Terri ritory. "Is -not the fact significant," that such men- as he are 'still- retained in office here? What more 'can men want to con vince them that the Federal - Government means to crush its, backed up as they are by the democratic party ? The cause of free dom in Kansas has nothing td expect at their hands. So well convinced am lof the utter rottenness of the party now in power and their worthless' lying pretensions, that it seems to me that a just retribution will soon overtake them. During the seventeenyears of my residence in the State of Illinois, I have heeler - democrat—have always actd with that party and supported" its nominations— Douglas among the number--but I say now that in him and the present administration I have seen an end of all political honesty.— Frank Pierce must have raked the whole country over to fmd the contemptible set,ot paltreons he has seen fit , to send here.-to do his dirty work—instead of adrninisteringlus tice their motto has been " We will - subdue you"— and well have they served their mas ter. The poor broken down politician,Shan non, who has lately been victimized to save appearances, is a fair sample of the whole, batch. The fact -of our incarceration here will explain in part our firm determination to make Kansas a free State, and if need -be to stake our Wier in, the cause of .freedont ; with avouselous belief that it is a just, and holy one, we are bound to stand by it to the last gasp. Peeling that the. Almighty - Ru ler of events will not desert ns, we will pray on and fight on until we have accomplished our freedom or else leave our bones to bleach on the plains, pf Kansas.
