Governor Robinson also came in yesterday. This
is his first i i4t. here since his liberation. • his king

which he has passed, do not seem to• have affected

his advice. It. is just what they *ant. .to get, us .to

,It is going
to he one of the most diffi

performed, to cram these laws', so called; down the,
throats of the Free State men - of Kansas. It is a deep
game they are playing, but we have learned to mis
trustany man sent here by' the great head Of this,
great country. 'Robinson says the new 96Cereor
talks nice things—that he is A free . State than, and
all that—bUt says . he, "I do not believe any ' asser

proof that the bravery for which they.hkve been PO
_renowned is a ort ofbogus article eller all. - And
events further show that they are endowed with a
-- .
genius for avoiding . A Contact with genuine courage,
likewise for devising schemes for retrieving laurels
they-never won, and glory they never gained. ' And
Gov. Robinson says it was something bf this kind
that, instigated them to come up, the last ,time. they
were here. He says they were sure.that Gov. - Geary
would bo on band to send them bacls and this would
help to retrieve. their lost reputation—" that When,
